(i) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires the calculation of the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio or the Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio; or

If the Company has made an LCA Election for any Limited Condition Acquisition, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to the incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the prepayment, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other satisfaction of Indebtedness, or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited

Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio or basket shall be tested by calculating the availability under such ratio or basket on a pro forma basis (i) assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith have been consummated and (ii) assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith have not been consummated.

In connection with any action being taken primarily in connection with a Limited Condition Acquisition, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, such condition may, at the option of the Company, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default, as applicable, exists on the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company has exercised its option under this clause (h), and any Potential Event of Default or Event of Default occurs following the date the definitive agreements for the applicable Limited Condition Acquisition were entered into and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Acquisition is permitted hereunder.

In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Acquisition, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires compliance with any representations and warranties set forth herein, such condition may, at the option of the Company, be deemed satisfied, so long as the Company is in compliance with such representations and warranties on the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company has exercised its option under this clause (h), and any breach of a representation or warranty occurs following the date the definitive agreements for the applicable Limited Condition Acquisition were entered into and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such breach shall be deemed to not have occurred for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Acquisition is permitted hereunder.

Section 1.04 Accounting Terms. All accounting terms not specifically defined herein shall be construed in accordance with GAAP consistent with those applied in the preparation of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01(e). All computations determining compliance with financial covenants or terms, including definitions used therein, shall be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in effect at the time of the preparation of, and in conformity with those used to prepare, the historical financial statements delivered to the Lenders pursuant to Section 4.01(e). If at any time the computations for determining compliance with financial covenants or provisions relating thereto utilize generally accepted accounting principles different than those then being utilized in the financial statements being delivered to the Lenders, such financial statements shall be accompanied by a reconciliation statement. If at any time any change in GAAP or the required adoption by the Company of international financial reporting standards would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in this Agreement, and either the Company or the Majority Lenders shall so request, the Agents, the Lenders and the Company shall negotiate in

good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP or the adoption of such international financial reporting standards (subject to the approval of the Majority Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein or the adoption of such international financial reporting standards and (ii) the Company shall provide to the Agents and the Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP or the adoption of such international financial reporting standards. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with any covenant (including the computation of any financial covenant) contained herein, (a) whether a lease constitutes a capital lease or an operating lease shall be determined based on GAAP as in effect on the date hereof, notwithstanding any modification or interpretative change thereto after the date hereof; provided that supplier and sub-contractor arrangements and joint venture arrangements that are accounted as capitalized leases pursuant to GAAP but where the supplier or partner, as applicable, acts as a sub-contractor to the Company or its Affiliates, and where the Company’s financial obligation under such sub-contracting arrangements terminate in the event of a termination of the underlying customer contract where the Company or its Affiliates act as the prime contractor shall not constitute capital leases, and payments thereunder shall not constitute interest expense, for any purpose under this Agreement and (b) all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made (i) without giving effect to any election under Accounting Standards Codification 000-00-00 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof at “fair value”, as defined therein and (ii) without giving effect to any treatment of Indebtedness in respect of convertible debt instruments under Accounting Standards Codification 470-20 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any such Indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof.

Bank, by deposit to the applicable Pro Rata Administrative Agent’s Administrative Agent Account, in same day funds, an amount equal to the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Swing Line Advance to be purchased by such Lender.

If such Lender shall pay to the Pro Rata Administrative Agent such amount for the account of a Swing Line Bank on any Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Swing Line Advance made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Advance held by such Swing Line Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day.

(i) the Company may not select Eurocurrency Rate Advances for any Borrowing or with respect to the Conversion or continuance of any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing or such Conversion or continuance is less than the Borrowing Minimum;

(ii) there shall be no more than (x) seven Interest Periods relating to any Class of Eurocurrency Rate Advances outstanding under any Revolving Facility at any time or (y) three Interest Periods relating to any Class of Eurocurrency Rate Advances outstanding under any Term Facility at any time;

(iii) if any Appropriate Lender shall notify the applicable Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation, in each case after the Closing Date, makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to fund or

maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances hereunder, the Commitment of such Lender to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to Convert all or any portion of Base Rate Advances shall forthwith be suspended until the applicable Agent shall notify the Company that such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and the Company shall prepay or Convert all Eurocurrency Rate Advances of such Lender to Base Rate Advances, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Advances to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Advances; to the extent that such affected Eurocurrency Rate Advances become Base Rate Advances, all payments of principal that would have been otherwise applied to such Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be applied instead to such Lender’s Base Rate Advances; provided that if, at any time after a Lender gives notice under this Section 2.02(b)(iii), such Lender determines that it may lawfully make Eurocurrency Rate Advances, such Lender shall promptly give notice of that determination to the Company and the applicable Agent. The Company’s right to request, and such Lender’s obligation, if any, to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall thereupon be restored; and

(iv) if, with respect to any Facility, the Majority Facility Lenders shall notify the applicable Agent that (A) the Eurocurrency Rate for Eurocurrency Rate Advances comprising such Borrowing will not adequately reflect the cost to such Majority Facility Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such Borrowing or (B) deposits are not being offered to banks in the applicable interbank market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Borrowing or (C) reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period, the right of the Company to select Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such Borrowing or any subsequent Borrowing under such Facility shall be suspended until the applicable Agent shall notify the Company and the Appropriate Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Advance.

(c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Company. In the case of any Borrowing which the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Company shall indemnify each Appropriate Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing or by reason of the termination of hedging or other similar arrangements, in each case when such Advance is not made on such date, including without limitation, as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III. The Lender making demand for such indemnification shall deliver to the Company concurrently with such demand a written statement as to such losses, expenses and liabilities, and this statement shall be conclusive as to the amount of compensation due to such Lender, absent manifest error.

(d) Unless any Agent shall have received notice from an Appropriate Lender at least one hour prior to the time any Borrowing is due to be funded by the Lenders that such Lender will not make available to such Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, such Agent

may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to it on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and such Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the applicable Agent, such Lender and the Company severally agrees to repay to the applicable Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Company until the date such amount is repaid to the applicable Agent, at (i) in the case of the Company, higher of (A) the interest rate applicable at the time to the Advances comprising such Borrowing and (B) the cost of funds incurred by such Agent in respect of such amount and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall repay to any Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

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

Section 2.03 [Reserved].

Section 2.04 Fees.

(a) Commitment Fees. The Company agrees to pay to the Pro Rata Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee which shall accrue at the Commitment Fee Rate on the daily amount of such Revolving Lender’s Unused Revolving Commitment from the Closing Date, in the case of each Bank, and, to the extent not paid by the Company to any other Revolving Lender in respect of the same Revolving Commitment for the same period, from the effective date specified in the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which a successor to any Bank or other Revolving Lender becomes a Revolving Lender hereunder, in each case until the Revolving Commitment Termination Date of such Revolving Lender, payable in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December during the term of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment(s), commencing December 31, 2015, and on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date of such Revolving Lender; provided that no Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Company shall not be required to pay such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

A notice of reduction or termination of the Commitments delivered by the Company pursuant to this Section 2.05 may state that such notice is conditioned on the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the availability of a source of funds for the prepayment in full of the obligations under this Agreement, in which case, such notice may be revoked or extended by the Company (by notice to the applicable Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

Section 2.06 Repayment and Prepayment of Advances.

(a) Mandatory Repayment of Advances. The Company shall repay to the applicable Agent:

(i) with respect to a Revolving Facility of any Class, for the account of the Revolving Lenders of such Class, the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loan Advances of such Class made to it by each Lender under the Revolving Facility of such Class on the Revolving Commitment Termination Date with respect to such Class applicable to such Lender;

(b) Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) Revolving Commitment Reductions. The Company shall from time to time prepay the Advances under any Revolving Facility to the extent necessary so that the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the Advances under such Revolving Facility then outstanding does not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments of all of the Appropriate Lenders under such Revolving Facility then in effect.

(ii) Prepayment Events.

(A) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Cash Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of any Prepayment Event following the Closing Date, the Company shall, within one Business Day following the day such Net Cash Proceeds are received (or, in the case of a Prepayment Event described in clauses (a) or (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event,” within five Business Days after such Net Cash Proceeds are received), prepay Advances under the Term Facilities in an amount equal to 100.0% of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided that, in the case of any event described in clauses (a) or (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event,” if the Company shall, prior to the date of the required prepayment, deliver to the Agents a certificate of an authorized officer of the Company to the effect that the Company intends to cause the Net Cash Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate) to be applied within 365 days after receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds to acquire assets to be used in the business of the Company or the Restricted Subsidiaries, or to consummate any Permitted Acquisition (or any other acquisition of all or substantially all the assets of (or all or substantially all the assets constituting a business unit, division, product line or line of business of) any Person) permitted hereunder, and certifying that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Cash Proceeds from such event (or the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds specified in such certificate, if applicable) except to the extent of any such Net Cash Proceeds that have not been so applied by the end of such 365-day period (or within

a period of 180 days thereafter if by the end of such initial 365-day period the Company or one or more Restricted Subsidiaries shall have entered into an agreement with a third party to acquire such assets, or to consummate such Permitted Acquisition or other acquisition, with such Net Cash Proceeds), at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds that have not been so applied (and no prepayment shall be required to the extent the aggregate amount of such Net Cash Proceeds that are not reinvested in accordance with this Section does not exceed $20,000,000 in any fiscal year).

(B) In the event that the Company has Excess Cash Flow for any fiscal year of the Company commencing with the fiscal year ending on or about March 31, 2016, the Company shall, not later than ninety (90) days following the end of such fiscal year, prepay Advances under the Term Facilities in an amount equal to the excess of (x) an amount equal to the ECF Percentage multiplied by Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year over (y) the amount of prepayments of Advances under the Term Facilities pursuant to Section 2.06(c) (including, in the case of Term Advances prepaid pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(iii), the actual purchase price paid in cash in respect of such Advances) during such fiscal year (other than any such prepayment made with the proceeds of Funded Debt (other than Revolving Loan Advances)).

(C) Any mandatory prepayment of Term Advances to be made pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(ii) shall be applied pro rata to the Term Advances under the Term Facilities then outstanding based on the aggregate principal amounts of outstanding Advances of each Class under the Term Facilities; provided that to the extent provided in the relevant Incremental Term Loan A Facility Amendment, Incremental Term Loan B Facility Amendment or Extension Amendment, any Class of Incremental Term Loan A Advances, Incremental Term Loan B Advances or Extended Advances under the Term Loan A Facilities or the Term Loan B Facility may be paid on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis with any other Class of Advances under the Term Facilities.

(D) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender may elect, by notice to the applicable Agent by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery or facsimile) at least one Business Day (or such shorter period as may be established by each Agent) prior to the required prepayment date, to decline all or any portion of any prepayment of its Advances pursuant to this Section 2.06(b)(ii) (other than a prepayment pursuant to clause (c) of the definition of “Prepayment Event,” which may not be declined), in which case the aggregate amount of the payment that would have been applied to prepay Advances but was so declined may be retained by the Company and shall constitute “Declined Proceeds.”

(E) To the extent practicable, the Company shall notify the applicable Agent by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery or facsimile) of any mandatory prepayment hereunder not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Business Day of such prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Advances, and at least two Business Days prior to such prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, in each case stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment and a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. Each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than the Borrowing Minimum and integral multiples of the Borrowing Multiples in excess thereof, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. In the case of any such prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Advance, the Company shall pay all accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the portion of such Eurocurrency Rate Advance being prepaid and shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(b). Each notice of prepayment will specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Advances to be prepaid.

(F) Foreign Prepayment Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.06(b)(ii), mandatory prepayments arising from the receipt of Net Cash Proceeds from any Prepayment Event with respect to, or the Excess Cash Flow attributable to, any Foreign Subsidiary (each, a “Foreign Mandatory Prepayment Event”) shall not be required (x) to the extent the making of any such Foreign Mandatory Prepayment Event (or the repatriation of funds to effect such payment) would give rise to a material adverse Tax consequence (as determined in good faith by the Company) or (y) so long as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation thereof to the United States (the Company hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly file any required forms, obtain any necessary consents and take all similar actions reasonably required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation); provided that if such repatriation of any such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is later permitted under applicable law, such repatriation will, subject to clause (x) above, be effected as promptly as practicable and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, as applicable, will be promptly after such repatriation applied to the repayment of the Advances under the Term Facilities pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(ii) to the extent provided herein.

(i) Subject to clause (ii) below, the Company may, on any Business Day, upon notice to the applicable Agent provided not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on such Business Day, in the case of Base Rate Advances, and at least two Business Days’ notice to the applicable Agent, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, in each case stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of

the prepayment, prepay the Advances of any Class, and if such notice is given the Company shall prepay such stated amount; provided, however, that (A) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than the Borrowing Minimum and integral multiples of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof, (B) in the case of any such prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Advance, the Company shall pay all accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the portion of such Eurocurrency Rate Advance being prepaid and shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04(b) and (C) without limiting the Company’s obligations under Section 9.04(b), a notice of prepayment may be conditioned on the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the availability of a source of funds for such prepayment in which case such notice may be revoked or extended by the Company (by notice to the applicable Agent on or prior to the specified prepayment date) if such condition is not satisfied. Each notice of prepayment will specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Advances to be prepaid.

(ii) In the event any Term Loan B Advances are subject to a Repricing Event prior to the twelve month anniversary of the Closing Date, a Term Loan B Lender whose Term Loan B Advances are prepaid or repaid in whole or in part, or which is required to assign any of its Term Loan B Advances pursuant to Section 2.17, in connection with such Repricing Event or which holds a Term Loan B Advance the Effective Yield of which is reduced as a result of a Repricing Event shall be paid an amount equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loan B Lender’s Term Loan B Advances so prepaid, repaid, assigned or repriced.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and no proceeds of Revolving Loan Advances are applied to fund any such repayment, any Company Party may prepay the outstanding Term Advances (which shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be automatically and permanently canceled immediately upon such prepayment) (or the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may purchase such outstanding Term Advances and immediately cancel them) on the following basis:

(A) Any Company Party shall have the right to make a voluntary prepayment of Term Advances at a discount to par pursuant to a Company Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment, Company Solicitation of Discount Range Prepayment Offers or Company Solicitation of Discounted Prepayment Offers (any such prepayment, the “Discounted Term Advance Prepayment”), in each case made in accordance with this Section 2.06(c)(iii).

(B) (I) Any Company Party may from time to time offer to make a Discounted Term Advance Prepayment by providing the Auction Agent with five (5) Business Days’ notice in the form of a Specified Discount Prepayment Notice; provided that (II) any such offer shall be made available, at the sole discretion of the Company Party, to (x) each Term Lender and/or (y) each Term Lender with respect to any Class of Term Advances on an

individual tranche basis, (III) any such offer shall specify the aggregate principal amount offered to be prepaid (the “Specified Discount Prepayment Amount”) with respect to each applicable tranche, the tranche or tranches of Term Advances subject to such offer and the specific percentage discount to par (the “Specified Discount”) of such Term Advances to be prepaid (it being understood that different Specified Discounts and/or Specified Discount Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to different tranches of Term Advances and, in such event, each such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.06(c)(iii)), (IV) the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 and whole increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (V) each such offer shall remain outstanding through the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each Appropriate Lender with a copy of such Specified Discount Prepayment Notice and a form of the Specified Discount Prepayment Response to be completed and returned by each such Term Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to such Lenders (the “Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date”).

(1) Each Term Lender receiving such offer shall notify the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date whether or not it agrees to accept a prepayment of any of its applicable then outstanding Term Advances at the Specified Discount and, if so (such accepting Lender, a “Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender”), the amount and the tranches of such Lender’s Term Advances to be prepaid at such offered discount. Each acceptance of a Discounted Term Advance Prepayment by a Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender shall be irrevocable. Any Term Lender whose Specified Discount Prepayment Response is not received by the Auction Agent by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept the applicable Company Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment.

(2) If there is at least one Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender, the relevant Company Party will make a prepayment of outstanding Term Advances pursuant to this paragraph (B) to each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender in accordance with the respective outstanding amount and tranches of Term Advances specified in such Lender’s Specified Discount Prepayment Response given pursuant to subsection (1) above; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Term Advances accepted for prepayment by all Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders exceeds the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount, such prepayment shall be made pro

rata among the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts accepted to be prepaid by each such Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with such Company Party and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Specified Discount Proration”). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within three Business Days following the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, notify (I) the relevant Company Party of the respective Term Lenders’ responses to such offer, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and the aggregate principal amount of the Discounted Term Advance Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, and the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Term Advances to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date and (III) each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender of the Specified Discount Proration, if any, and confirmation of the principal amount, tranche and Type of Term Advances of such Lender to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Company Party and such Term Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to the Company Party shall be due and payable by such Company Party on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

(C) (1) Any Company Party may from time to time solicit Discount Range Prepayment Offers by providing the Auction Agent with five (5) Business Days’ notice in the form of a Discount Range Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such solicitation shall be extended, at the sole discretion of such Company Party, to (x) each Term Lender and/or (y) each Term Lender with respect to any Class of Term Advances on an individual tranche basis, (II) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate principal amount of the relevant Term Advances (the “Discount Range Prepayment Amount”), the tranche or tranches of Term Advances subject to such offer and the maximum and minimum percentage discounts to par (the “Discount Range”) of the principal amount of such Term Advances with respect to each relevant tranche of Term Advances willing to be prepaid by such Company Party (it being understood that different Discount Ranges and/or Discount Range Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to different tranches of Term Advances and, in such event, each such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.06(c)(iii)), (III) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 and whole increments of $1,000,000 in

excess thereof and (IV) each such solicitation by a Company Party shall remain outstanding through the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each Appropriate Lender with a copy of such Discount Range Prepayment Notice and a form of the Discount Range Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to such Lenders (the “Discount Range Prepayment Response Date”). Each Term Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer shall be irrevocable and shall specify a discount to par within the Discount Range (the “Submitted Discount”) at which such Lender is willing to allow prepayment of any or all of its then outstanding Term Advances of the applicable tranche or tranches and the maximum aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Lender’s Term Advances (the “Submitted Amount”) such Term Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Submitted Discount. Any Term Lender whose Discount Range Prepayment Offer is not received by the Auction Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept a Discounted Term Advance Prepayment of any of its Term Advances at any discount to their par value within the Discount Range.

(2) The Auction Agent shall review all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received on or before the applicable Discount Range Prepayment Response Date and shall determine (in consultation with such Company Party and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the Applicable Discount and Term Advances to be prepaid at such Applicable Discount in accordance with this subsection (C). The relevant Company Party agrees to accept on the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, in the order from the Submitted Discount that is the largest discount to par to the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par, up to and including the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par within the Discount Range (such Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par within the Discount Range being referred to as the “Applicable Discount”) which yields a Discounted Term Advance Prepayment in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lower of (I) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount and (II) the sum of all Submitted Amounts. Each Term Lender that has submitted a Discount Range Prepayment Offer to accept prepayment at a discount to par that is larger than or equal to the Applicable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Advances equal to its Submitted Amount (subject to any required proration pursuant to the following

subsection (3)) at the Applicable Discount (each such Term Lender, a “Participating Lender”).

(3) If there is at least one Participating Lender, the relevant Company Party will prepay the respective outstanding Term Advances of each Participating Lender in the aggregate principal amount and of the tranches specified in such Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer at the Applicable Discount; provided that if the Submitted Amount by all Participating Lenders offered at a discount to par greater than or equal to the Applicable Discount exceeds the Discount Range Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the relevant Term Advances for those Participating Lenders whose Submitted Discount is a discount to par greater than or equal to the Applicable Discount (the “Identified Participating Lenders”) shall be made pro rata among the Identified Participating Lenders in accordance with the Submitted Amount of each such Identified Participating Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with such Company Party and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Discount Range Proration”). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within five (5) Business Days following the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, notify (I) the relevant Company Party of the respective Term Lenders’ responses to such solicitation, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate principal amount of the Discounted Term Advance Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate principal amount and tranches of Term Advances to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (III) each Participating Lender of the aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Term Lender to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, and (IV) if applicable, each Identified Participating Lender of the Discount Range Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the relevant Company Party and Term Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to the Company Party shall be due and payable by such Company Party on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

(D) (1) Any Company Party may from time to time solicit Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers by providing the Auction Agent with five (5) Business Days’ notice in the form of a Solicited Discounted

Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such solicitation shall be extended, at the sole discretion of such Company Party, to (x) each Term Lender and/or (y) each Lender with respect to any Class of Term Advances on an individual tranche basis, (II) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate amount of the Term Advances (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount”) and the tranche or tranches of Term Advances the Company is willing to prepay at a discount (it being understood that different Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to different tranches of Term Advances and, in such event, each such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.06(c)(iii)(D)), (III) the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 and whole increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (IV) each such solicitation by a Company Party shall remain outstanding through the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each Appropriate Lender with a copy of such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice and a form of the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to such Term Lenders (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date”). Each Term Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer shall (x) be irrevocable, (y) remain outstanding until the Acceptance Date, and (z) specify both a discount to par (the “Offered Discount”) at which such Term Lender is willing to allow prepayment of its then outstanding Term Advance and the maximum aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Term Advances (the “Offered Amount”) such Term Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Offered Discount. Any Term Lender whose Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer is not received by the Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined prepayment of any of its Term Advances at any discount.

(2) The Auction Agent shall promptly provide the relevant Company Party with a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received on or before the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. Such Company Party shall review all such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers and select the largest of the Offered Discounts specified by the relevant responding Term Lenders in the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers that is acceptable to the Company Party (the “Acceptable Discount”), if any. If the Company Party elects to accept any Offered Discount as the Acceptable Discount, then as soon as practicable after the determination of the Acceptable Discount, but in no event later than by the third Business Day after the date of receipt by such Company Party from the Auction Agent of a copy of all Solicited Discounted

Prepayment Offers pursuant to the first sentence of this subsection (2) (the “Acceptance Date”), the Company Party shall submit an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice to the Auction Agent setting forth the Acceptable Discount. If the Auction Agent shall fail to receive an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice from the Company Party by the Acceptance Date, such Company Party shall be deemed to have rejected all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers.

(3) Based upon the Acceptable Discount and the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, within three Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice (the “Discounted Prepayment Determination Date”), the Auction Agent will determine (in consultation with such Company Party and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Term Advances (the “Acceptable Prepayment Amount”) to be prepaid by the relevant Company Party at the Acceptable Discount in accordance with this Section 2.06(c)(iii)(D). If the Company Party elects to accept any Acceptable Discount, then the Company Party agrees to accept all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, in the order from largest Offered Discount to smallest Offered Discount, up to and including the Acceptable Discount. Each Term Lender that has submitted a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer with an Offered Discount that is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Advances equal to its Offered Amount (subject to any required pro rata reduction pursuant to the following sentence) at the Acceptable Discount (each such Lender, a “Qualifying Lender”). The Company Party will prepay outstanding Term Advances pursuant to this subsection (D) to each Qualifying Lender in the aggregate principal amount and of the tranches specified in such Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer at the Acceptable Discount; provided that if the aggregate Offered Amount by all Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount exceeds the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the Term Advances for those Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount (the “Identified Qualifying Lenders”) shall be made pro rata among the Identified Qualifying Lenders in accordance with the Offered Amount of each such Identified Qualifying Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with such Company Party and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its

sole reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Solicited Discount Proration”). On or prior to the Discounted Prepayment Determination Date, the Auction Agent shall promptly notify (I) the relevant Company Party of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and Acceptable Prepayment Amount comprising the Discounted Term Advance Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Acceptable Discount, and the Acceptable Prepayment Amount of all Term Advances and the tranches to be prepaid to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (III) each Qualifying Lender of the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of such Term Lender to be prepaid at the Acceptable Discount on such date, and (IV) if applicable, each Identified Qualifying Lender of the Solicited Discount Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to such Company Party and Term Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to such Company Party shall be due and payable by such Company Party on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

(E) In connection with any Discounted Term Advance Prepayment, the Company Parties and the Term Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Auction Agent may require as a condition to any Discounted Term Advance Prepayment, the payment of customary fees and expenses from a Company Party in connection therewith.

(F) If any Term Advance is prepaid in accordance with paragraphs (B) through (D) above, a Company Party shall prepay such Term Advances on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. The relevant Company Party shall make such prepayment to the applicable Agent, for the account of the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable, at the applicable Agent’s office in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and all such prepayments shall be applied to the remaining principal installments of the relevant tranche of Advances on a pro rata basis across such installments. The Term Advances so prepaid shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so prepaid up to, but not including, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. Each prepayment of the outstanding Term Advances pursuant to this Section 2.06(c)(iii) shall be paid to the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable. The aggregate principal amount of the tranches and installments of the relevant Term Advances outstanding shall be deemed

reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the tranches of Term Advances prepaid on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in any Discounted Term Advance Prepayment. In connection with each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.06(c)(iii), the relevant Company Party shall waive any right to bring any action against the applicable Agent, in its capacity as such, in connection with any such Discounted Term Advance Prepayment.

(G) To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Term Advance Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures consistent with the provisions in this Section 2.06(c)(iii), established by the Auction Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as reasonably agreed by the Company.

(H) Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 2.06(c)(iii), each notice or other communication required to be delivered or otherwise provided to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) shall be deemed to have been given upon Auction Agent’s (or its delegate’s) actual receipt during normal business hours of such notice or communication; provided that any notice or communication actually received outside of normal business hours shall be deemed to have been given as of the opening of business on the next Business Day.

(I) Each of the Company Parties and the Term Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Auction Agent may perform any and all of its duties under this Section 2.06(c)(iii) by itself or through any Affiliate of the Auction Agent and expressly consents to any such delegation of duties by the Auction Agent to such Affiliate and the performance of such delegated duties by such Affiliate. The exculpatory provisions pursuant to this Agreement shall apply to each Affiliate of the Auction Agent and its respective activities in connection with any Discounted Term Advance Prepayment provided for in this Section 2.06(c)(iii) as well as activities of the Auction Agent.

(J) Each Company Party shall have the right, by written notice to the Auction Agent, to revoke in full (but not in part) its offer to make a Discounted Term Advance Prepayment and rescind the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Notice, Discount Range Prepayment Notice or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice therefor at its discretion at any time on or prior to the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date (and if such offer is revoked pursuant to the preceding clauses, any failure by such Company Party to make any prepayment to a Lender, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.06(c)(iii) shall not constitute a Potential Event of Default or Event of Default under Section 6.01 or otherwise).

(d) Repayment of Swing Line Advances. The Company shall repay to the Pro Rata Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Swing Line Bank and each other Lender which holds a Swing Line Advance the outstanding principal amount of each Swing Line Advance held by it on the earlier of the maturity date specified in the applicable Notice of Swing Line Borrowing (which maturity shall be no later than five Business Days after the requested date of such Borrowing) and the Revolving Commitment Termination Date applicable to such Swing Line Bank or such Lender.

Section 2.07 Interest on Advances. The Company shall pay interest accrued on the principal amount of each Advance made to it outstanding from time to time from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

(a) Base Rate Advances. If such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin, payable in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December during the term of this Agreement, commencing December 31, 2015, and on the Maturity Date of the applicable Lender; provided that the Agents may, upon the request of the Majority Lenders, require that the Company pay interest (“Base Rate Default Interest”) on any amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts payable under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the principal amount of Base Rate Advances, but excluding the principal amount of Eurocurrency Rate Advances) which is not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) from the date on which such amount is due until such amount is paid in full, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin; provided, however, that following the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize any Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, or upon acceleration of the Advances (pursuant to a vote of the Majority Lenders or by process of law upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 6.01(e)), Base Rate Default Interest shall accrue and be payable hereunder whether or not previously required by the Majority Lenders.

(b) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. If such Advance is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during the Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on the day which occurs during such Interest Period three months from the first day of such Interest Period; provided that the Agents may, upon the request of the Majority Lenders, require that the Company pay interest (“Eurocurrency Default Interest”) on any principal amount of any Eurocurrency Rate Advance which is not paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) from the date on which such amount is due until such amount is paid in full, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to (i) during the Interest Period applicable to such Eurocurrency Rate Advance, 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such amount immediately prior to the date on which such amount became due and (ii) after the expiration of such Interest Period, 2% per annum above the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin; provided, however, that following the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize any Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, or upon acceleration of the Advances (pursuant to a vote

of the Majority Lenders or by process of law upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 6.01(e)), Eurocurrency Default Interest shall accrue and be payable hereunder whether or not previously required by the Majority Lenders.

(d) Reserves on Eurocurrency Rate Advances. The Company shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency Liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Advance made to the Company equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Advance by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Advance, provided that the Company shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the applicable Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant interest payment date, such additional interest shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.

Section 2.08 Interest Rate Determination. Each Agent shall give prompt notice to the Company and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by such Agent for purposes of Section 2.07(a) or 2.07(b).

Section 2.09 Voluntary Conversion or Continuation of Advances.

(a) The Company may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the applicable Agent not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion or continuance (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) and subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(b), (i) Convert Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of another Type and (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to Advances which are Eurocurrency Rate Advances made to the Company, continue all (or, subject to Section 2.02(b), any portion of) such Advances as Eurocurrency Rate Advances and the succeeding Interest Period(s) of such continued Advances shall commence on the last day of the Interest Period of the Advances to be continued; provided, however, that any Conversion of any Eurocurrency Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances. Each such Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (A) the date of such continuation or Conversion, (B) the Advances (or, subject to Section 2.02(b), any portion thereof) to be continued or Converted, (C) if such continuation is of, or such Conversion is into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the duration of the Interest Period for each such Advance and (D) that no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The Company may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Advances comprising such Borrowing, and the Advances comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b) If upon the expiration of the then existing Interest Period applicable to any Advance which is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance made to the Company, the Company shall not have

delivered a Notice of Conversion/Continuation in accordance with this Section 2.09, then (i) in the case of any Revolving Loan Advance, such Advance shall upon such expiration automatically be Converted to a Base Rate Advance and (ii) in the case of any Term Advance, such Advance shall, upon such expiration, automatically be continued as a Eurocurrency Rate Advance with an Interest Period of one month.

(c) After the occurrence of and during the continuance of a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default, the Company may not elect to have an Advance be made or continued as, or Converted into, a Eurocurrency Rate Advance after the expiration of any interest rate then in effect for that Advance.

Section 2.10 Increased Costs.

(a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances payable under Section 2.07(d)) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation, in each case after the Closing Date, or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case issued after the Closing Date, there shall be any increase in the cost (other than with respect to Indemnified Taxes or Excluded Taxes) to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances made to the Company, then the Company shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the applicable Agent), pay to the applicable Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A reasonably detailed certificate as to the amount and manner of calculation of such increased cost, submitted to the Company and the applicable Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) If any Lender determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), in each case issued after the Closing Date, affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the applicable Agent), the Company shall immediately pay to the applicable Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder. A reasonably detailed certificate as to such amounts and the manner of calculation thereof submitted to the Company and the Agent by such Lender shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, this Section 2.10(b) shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning capital adequacy issued in connection with the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented and this Section 2.10(b) shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on

Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued or implemented.

(c) If a Lender shall change its Applicable Lending Office, such Lender shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.10 and 2.12 than the amount such Lender would have been entitled to receive if it had not changed its Applicable Lending Office, unless such change was made at the request of the Company or at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such greater payment did not exist.

Section 2.11 Payments and Computations.

(a) The Company shall make each payment hereunder not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S. Dollars to the applicable Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.02 in same day funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim. Subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, each Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or commitment fees ratably (other than, to the extent the applicable Maturity Date is not the same for all Appropriate Lenders, pursuant to Section 2.06(a)) to the Appropriate Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon receipt of principal or interest paid after an Event of Default and an acceleration or a deemed acceleration of amounts due hereunder, each Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest ratably in accordance with each Lender’s outstanding Advances to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, each Agent shall make all payments hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

(b) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate determined by reference to BTMU’s base rate or RBC’s base rate, as applicable, shall be made by the applicable Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of commitment fees, if applicable, shall be made by the applicable Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or such fees are payable. Each determination by either Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fee, as the case may be; provided, however, if such extension would cause payment

of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(d) Unless an Agent shall have received notice from the Company prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Company will not make such payment in full, such Agent may assume that the Company has made such payment in full to such Agent on such date and such Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Company shall not have so made such payment in full to the applicable Agent, each Lender shall repay to such Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the applicable Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

Section 2.12 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by 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 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, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the relevant Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings 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.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Company. The Company shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of either Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify each Recipient, within 30 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, in each case attributable to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of the Company, 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 setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Lender (with a copy to the applicable Agent), or by any Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the applicable Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable

to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Company has not already indemnified such Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.07(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 such 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 an Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes each 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 such Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to such Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Company or any Guarantor to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.12, the Company or the relevant Guarantor shall deliver to the applicable 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 such Agent.

(f) 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 the Company and the applicable Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the applicable Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the applicable Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Company or the applicable Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or such Agent as will enable the Company or such 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 Sections 2.12(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the 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,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Company and the applicable 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 the Company or such Agent), executed originals 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 the Company and the applicable Agent (in such number of copies as shall be

requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or such 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 originals 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 originals 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 E-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 the Company 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 originals 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 or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-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 E-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 the Company and the applicable Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or such Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Company or the applicable 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 the Company and the applicable Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or such Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the applicable Agent as may be necessary for the Company and such 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 date of this Agreement.

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 the Company and the applicable Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund or credit (in lieu of a refund) in respect of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.12 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.12), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund or the benefit of such credit (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund or credit to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) 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 or credit 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.

(h) Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Company contained in this Section 2.12, and the agreements and obligations of all Persons under Section 2.12(g), shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder.

Section 2.13 Sharing of Payments, Etc. 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 its Advances or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Advances under any Facility and accrued

interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the applicable Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Advances and such other obligations of the other Appropriate Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Appropriate Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Advances and other amounts owing them; provided that:

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

(ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Company 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), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).

Upon the acceleration or deemed acceleration of the Advances, the obligation of the Lenders to purchase participations in Advances and other obligations shall apply to all other Lenders, irrespective of Facility. The Company 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 the Company rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.14 Evidence of Debt.

(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Company to such Lender resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. The Company agrees that upon notice by any Lender to the Company (with a copy of such notice to the applicable Agent) to the effect that a Note or other evidence of indebtedness is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advances under a Facility owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Company shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender Notes or other evidence of such indebtedness, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company and such Lender, payable to such Lender in a principal amount equal to the Commitment of such Lender under such Facility; provided, however, that the execution and delivery of such Note or other evidence of indebtedness shall not be a condition precedent to the making of any Advance under this Agreement.

(b) The Register maintained by each Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(c) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken

together) shall be recorded (i) the date, amount and tenor, as applicable, of each Borrowing, the Facility of such Borrowing, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it, if any, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Company to each Lender hereunder, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by such Agent from the Company hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.

Section 2.15 Use of Proceeds.

(a) Advances shall be used by the Company:

(i) with respect to the Revolving Facility, for acquisitions and for general corporate purposes (including to pay a portion of the funding of the Acquisition on the Merger Date);

(ii) with respect to the Tranche A1 Facility and the Initial Tranche A2 Funding, (x) to pay the Special Dividend, (y) to pay a portion of the Transaction Costs and (z) for general corporate purposes; and

(iii) with respect to the Subsequent Tranche A2 Funding and the Term Loan B Facility, (x) to pay a portion of the Transaction Costs, (y) to pay a portion of the funding of the Acquisition and the Refinancing and (z) for general corporate purposes.

(b) No portion of the proceeds of any Advances under this Agreement shall be used by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in any manner which might cause the Advances or the application of such proceeds to violate, or require any Lender to make any filing or take any other action under, Regulation U or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

(c) The Company will not request any Borrowing, and the Company shall not knowingly use, and shall procure that its Restricted Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall not knowingly use, the proceeds of any Borrowing (i) 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, (ii) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, or (iii) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto.

Section 2.16 Extension of the Maturity Date.

(a) The Company may, from time to time, request that (i) in the case of the Revolving Facility, the Revolving Commitment Termination Date or (ii) in the case of any Term Advances of any Class, the Maturity Date in respect of such Advances of such Class be extended to such date as the Company shall specify in the applicable Extension Request, in each case by

delivering to the applicable Agent a copy of an extension request signed by the Company (an “Extension Request”) in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto; provided that at the time of such request and as of the date of any such extension of any such Revolving Commitment Termination Date and/or Maturity Date (each, an “Extension” and each group of Commitments or Advances so extended, as well as any Advances of the same Class not so extended, each being a separate “tranche”), (A) the representations and warranties of the Company contained in Article IV are correct in all material respects (except those representations and warranties qualified by materiality, which shall be true and correct) on and as of such date, as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent that any such representation or warranty expressly relates only to an earlier date, in which case they were correct in all material respects (except those representations and warranties qualified by materiality, which shall be true and correct) as of such earlier date, and (B) no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The applicable Agent shall promptly notify each Appropriate Lender of its receipt of such Extension Request. On or prior to the fifteenth day (the “Determination Date”) after the date upon which an Extension Request was submitted by the Company, each Appropriate Lender shall notify the applicable Agent and the Company of its willingness or unwillingness to extend the applicable Revolving Commitment Termination Date and/or Maturity Date hereunder from the applicable Revolving Commitment Termination Date and/or Maturity Date. Any Appropriate Lender that shall fail to so notify the applicable Agent and the Company, on or prior to the Determination Date, shall be deemed to have declined to so extend.

(b) In the event that, on or prior to the Determination Date, Appropriate Lenders representing 50% or more of the aggregate amount of (i) in the case of any Revolving Facility, the Commitments or (ii) in the case of any Term Facility, the Advances of all Appropriate Lenders, in each case then in effect in respect of the applicable Class shall consent to such extension, the applicable Agent shall so advise the Appropriate Lenders and the Company and the Revolving Commitment Termination Date and/or Maturity Date of each such consenting Appropriate Lender (each a “Consenting Lender”) shall be extended to the date indicated in the Extension Request. Thereafter, (i) for each Consenting Lender, the term “Revolving Commitment Termination Date” or “Maturity Date” with respect to the applicable Class as used herein and in any Note executed and delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 2.14 hereof shall at all times refer to such date indicated in the Extension Request, unless it is later extended pursuant to this Section 2.16, and (ii) for each Lender that is not a Consenting Lender (each a “Non-Extending Lender”) the term “Revolving Commitment Termination Date” or “Maturity Date” with respect to the applicable Class shall at all times, subject to the following proviso, refer to the date which was the Revolving Commitment Termination Date or Maturity Date of such Lender in respect of such Facility then in effect prior to the delivery to the applicable Agent of such Extension Request unless it is later extended pursuant to this Section 2.16; provided that, after the Determination Date with respect to any Extension Request and prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date or Maturity Date with respect to the applicable Class then applicable to such Non-Extending Lender (or its direct or indirect assignee(s)), a Non-Extending Lender (or any direct or indirect assignee of (i) in the case of any Revolving Facility, Commitments of a Non-Extending Lender or (ii) in the case of any Term Facility, Advances of any Non-Extending Lender) (each a “New Consenting Lender”) may, with the written consent of the Borrower, elect, by written notice to such effect to the applicable Agent, to extend the Revolving Commitment Termination Date and/or Maturity Date of its Commitments

and/or Term Advances of the applicable Class, as applicable, to the date indicated in the applicable Extension Request and thereafter, for such New Consenting Lender, the term “Revolving Commitment Termination Date” or “Maturity Date” with respect to the applicable Class as used herein and in any Note executed and delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 2.14 hereof shall at all times refer to such date indicated in the applicable Extension Request, unless it is later extended pursuant to this Section 2.16. In the event that, as of the Determination Date, the Consenting Lenders represent less than 50% of the aggregate amount of (i) in the case of any Revolving Facility, the Commitments or (ii) in the case of any Term Facility, the Advances of all Appropriate Lenders then in effect under the applicable Facility, the Agent shall so advise the Appropriate Lenders and the Company, and none of the Lenders’ Revolving Commitment Termination Date and/or Maturity Date shall be extended to the date indicated in the Extension Request and each Appropriate Lender’s Revolving Commitment Termination Date and/or Maturity Date shall (unless later extended pursuant to this Section 2.16) continue to be the date which was the Revolving Commitment Termination Date and/or Maturity Date of such Lender in respect of such Facility immediately prior to the delivery to the Agent of such Extension Request.

Section 2.01 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders; Non-Ratable Termination of Commitments and Prepayments of Certain Lenders.

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.10, or requires the Company to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.12, or if any Lender gives the applicable Agent any notice under Section 2.02(b)(iii) that it is unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Company) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances 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 2.10 or Section 2.12, or eliminate such unlawfulness, 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.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.10, or if the Company 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 2.12, or if any Lender gives the applicable Agent any notice under Section 2.02(b)(iii) that it is unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.17(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender with respect to an amendment, consent or waiver requiring the approval of all Lenders or of all affected Lenders (or all Lenders or all affected Lenders of any Class) in accordance with the terms of Section 9.01, then the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the applicable 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 9.07), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.10, Section 2.12 or Section 9.04) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall

assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(i) the Company shall have paid to the applicable Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 9.07;

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 9.04(b)) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.10 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.12, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a notice of unlawfulness under Section 2.02(b)(iii), the assignee will not be subject to such unlawfulness;

(v) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law;

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

(vii) no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

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

(c) Non-Ratable Termination of Commitments and Prepayment of Certain Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.10 and the Majority Lenders are not also doing the same, or if the Company 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 2.12 and the Company is not also required to make such payments to the Majority Lenders, or if any Lender gives any Agent any notice under Section 2.02(b)(iii) that it is unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances and the Majority Lenders have not also provided such notice, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 2.17(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Company may, upon notice to such Lender and the applicable Agent:

(i) with respect to the Revolving Facility, terminate the Commitments of such Lender in full; provided that (x) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 9.04(b)); and (y) no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(ii) with respect to the Term Loan A Facilities and the Term Loan B Facility, prepay the Advances of such Lender in full, together with accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 9.04(b)); provided that no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

The Commitments or Advances, as applicable, of a Lender may not be terminated or so prepaid if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to terminate such Commitment or make such prepayment, as applicable, cease to apply.

Section 2.02 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by any Agent for the account of any Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VI or otherwise) from the Company or any Guarantor for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement will not be required to be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the applicable Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to either Agent under this Agreement; second, to the funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the applicable Agent; and third, if so determined by the applicable Agent and the Company, held in an account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of any Advances under this Agreement. If such Lender is still a Defaulting Lender and any amounts remain in such account on the date that the Commitments are terminated and all payment obligations of the Company hereunder are paid in full, then such amounts will be applied by the applicable Agent to the making of payments in the following order of priority: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to either Agent hereunder; second, with respect to the Revolving Facility, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Swing Line Bank hereunder; third, to the funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the applicable Agent; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the

Lenders or the Swing Line Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or any Swing Line Bank against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company or any Guarantor as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Company or any Guarantor against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct; provided that any amounts held as cash collateral for funding obligations of a Defaulting Lender shall be returned to such Defaulting Lender upon the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction of such Defaulting Lender’s obligations hereunder. 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 2.18 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(ii) Certain Fees. No Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.18, performance by the Company or any Guarantor of its obligations shall not be excused or otherwise modified as a result of the operation of this Section 2.18. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.18 are in addition to any other rights and remedies which the Company, any Guarantor, any Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

(iii) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. In the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender, all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Swing Line Advances shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders under the Revolving Facility in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default exists at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Company shall have otherwise notified the Agent at such time, the Company shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such condition is satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocated participation does not, as to any Revolving Lender, exceed such Lender’s Unused Revolving Commitment. 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.

(iv) Repayment of Swing Line Advances. If the reallocation described in clause (iii) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, prepay Swing Line Advances in an amount equal to the amount of the participation of the Defaulting Lenders.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Company and the applicable Agent agree in writing in their reasonable determination that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, such Agent will so notify the applicable parties hereto, whereupon as of

the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the applicable Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances to be funded and held on a pro rata basis by the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with their Ratable Share of the applicable Facility or Facilities, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor 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 such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) New Swing Line Advances. So long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swing Line Bank shall be required to fund any Swing Line Advances unless the participations of Defaulting Lenders in such Swing Line Advances have been fully reallocated in accordance with Section 2.18(a)(iii).

Section 2.03 Special Purpose Funding Vehicles.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”) the option to fund all or any part of any Advance that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to fund pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by an SPC to fund any Advance, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to fund all or any part of such Advance, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to fund such Advance pursuant to the terms hereof. The funding of an Advance by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Advance were funded by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or payment under this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable for so long as, and to the extent, the Granting Lender provides such indemnity or makes such payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any SPC may disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Advances to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee to such SPC.

(b) Each Granting Lender, acting solely for this purpose on the Company’s behalf, shall maintain a register comparable to the Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(c) for purpose of recording the funding of Advances by SPCs.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) the Company shall not be required to pay any amount under Sections 2.10, 2.12 or 2.17 that is greater than the amount which the Company would have been required to pay had such SPC not provided the Company with any part of any Advance of such Granting Lender and (ii) an SPC shall not be entitled to any benefits under Section 2.12 unless such SPC agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections

2.10(c), 2.12(d), 2.12(f), 2.12(g) and 2.17 as if it were an assignee (as of the date it funds its first Advance hereunder) under Section 9.07.

Section 2.04 Incremental Commitments.

(a) Incremental Revolving Increases.

(i) The Company may, by written notice to the Pro Rata Administrative Agent from time to time prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date, request Incremental Revolving Commitments in an amount not to exceed the Incremental Revolving Amount from one or more Incremental Revolving Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) willing to provide such Incremental Revolving Advances in their sole discretion; provided that each Incremental Revolving Lender (which is not an existing Lender) shall be subject to the approval requirements of Section 9.07. Such notice shall set forth (A) the amount of the Incremental Revolving Commitments being requested (which shall be in multiples of $10,000,000) and (B) the date on which such Incremental Revolving Commitments are requested to become effective (the “Increased Revolver Amount Date”). No Lender shall be obligated to increase its Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.20(a) unless it so agrees.

(ii) The Company and each Incremental Revolving Lender shall execute and deliver to the Pro Rata Administrative Agent an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Pro Rata Administrative Agent (each, an “Incremental Revolving Assumption Agreement”) to evidence the Incremental Revolving Commitment of such Incremental Revolving Lender. Each Incremental Revolving Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of the Incremental Revolving Advances to be made thereunder; provided, that except as provided in clause (C) of the proviso below, the Incremental Revolving Advances thereunder shall be made on terms and conditions identical to the terms and conditions of the existing Revolving Facility with the latest Revolving Commitment Termination Date; provided that (A) the Incremental Revolving Advances shall rank pari passu in right of payment with all other Advances, (B) such Incremental Revolving Facility shall be included in the existing Revolving Facility with the latest Revolving Commitment Termination Date and (C) in the event that the Applicable Margin for such Incremental Revolving Facility is greater than the Applicable Margin for the existing Revolving Facility with the latest Revolving Commitment Termination Date, then the Applicable Margin for the existing Revolving Facility with the latest Revolving Commitment Termination Date shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Applicable Margin for the Incremental Revolving Facility is not greater than the Applicable Margin for such Revolving Facility; provided, further, that in determining the Applicable Margin applicable to an Incremental Revolving Facility (x) upfront, arrangement or commitment fees payable to the Lenders providing such Incremental Facility or any arrangers (or their Affiliates) of such loans shall be excluded and (y) if any Eurocurrency Rate “floor” is applicable to such Incremental Revolving Facility, then the definition of “Eurocurrency Rate” shall be amended to include a comparable “floor” applicable to Advances under the existing Revolving Facility in which such Incremental Revolving Facility is to be included. The Pro Rata Administrative Agent

shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Revolving Assumption Agreement.

(iii) On any Increased Revolver Amount Date with respect to any Revolving Facility of any Class, (A) in the event any Revolving Loan Advances of such Class under the relevant Revolving Facility of such Class are then outstanding, (x) each applicable Incremental Revolving Lender shall make available to the Pro Rata Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Pro Rata Administrative Agent shall determine are necessary in order to cause, after giving effect to such increased Revolving Commitments and the application of such amounts to prepay Revolving Loan Advances of such Class under the relevant Revolving Facility of such Class of other relevant Revolving Lenders under the relevant Revolving Facility of such Class, the Revolving Loan Advances of such Class under the relevant Revolving Facility of such Class to be held ratably by Revolving Lenders of such Class under the relevant Revolving Facility of such Class in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments under the relevant Revolving Facility of such Class after giving effect to such increase, (y) the Company shall be deemed to have prepaid and reborrowed all outstanding Revolving Loan Advances of such Class under the relevant Revolving Facility of such Class and (z) the Company shall pay to the relevant Revolving Lenders of such Class the amounts, if any, payable under Section 9.04(b) as a result of such prepayment and (B) in the event any Swing Line Advances of such Class under the relevant Revolving Facility of such Class are then outstanding, participations in such Swing Line Advances pursuant to Section 2.02(a)(ii)(B) shall be reallocated so as to cause such participations to be held ratably by Revolving Lenders of such Class under the relevant Revolving Facility of such Class in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments under the relevant Revolving Facility of such Class after giving effect to such increase.

(b) Incremental Term Loan A Commitments.

(i) The Company may, by written notice to the Pro Rata Administrative Agent from time to time prior to the latest Maturity Date then in effect under the Term Loan A Facilities, request Incremental Term Loan A Commitments under the Term Loan A Facilities in an amount not to exceed the sum of (x) the Incremental Shared Term Amount plus (y) such additional amount that would not, after giving effect on a pro forma basis to the incurrence thereof cause the Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio (without netting the cash and Cash Equivalents constituting proceeds of the applicable Incremental Term Loan A Facilities) as at the end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Company for which financial statements are available to exceed 3.50:1.00 from one or more Incremental Term Loan A Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) willing to provide such Incremental Term Loan A Advances in their sole discretion; provided that each Incremental Term Loan A Lender (which is not an existing Lender) shall be subject to the approval requirements of Section 9.07. Such notice shall set forth (A) the amount of the Incremental Term Loan A Commitments being requested (which shall be in multiples of $10,000,000), (B) the date on which such Incremental Term Loan A Commitments are requested to become effective (C) the terms of such Incremental Term Loan A Commitments and (D) whether such Incremental Term Loan A Commitments are to be on the same terms as the existing

Term Loan A Advances of any Class or commitments to make term advances on terms different from the existing Term Loan A Advances of such Class (“Other Term Loan A Advances”). The designation of Commitments as Tranche A1 Commitments or Tranche A2 Commitments shall be made pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Incremental Term Loan A Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Company, the Pro Rata Administrative Agent and each applicable Incremental Term Loan A Lender. No Lender shall be obligated to increase its Tranche A1 Commitments or Tranche A2 Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.20(b) unless it so agrees.

(ii) The Company and each Incremental Term Loan A Lender shall execute and deliver to the Pro Rata Administrative Agent an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Agent (each, an “Incremental Term Loan A Assumption Agreement”) to evidence the Incremental Term Loan A Commitment of such Incremental Term Loan A Lender. Each Incremental Term Loan A Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of the Incremental Term Loan A Advances to be made thereunder, and the Incremental Term Loan A Advances thereunder shall be made on terms and conditions agreed to by the Company and the applicable Incremental Term Loan A Lenders, and acceptable to the Pro Rata Administrative Agent. The Pro Rata Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Term Loan A Assumption Agreement.

(i) The Company may, by written notice to the Term Loan B Administrative Agent from time to time prior to the latest Maturity Date then in effect under the Term Loan B Facility, increase the aggregate principal amount of any Class of Term Loan B Advances or enter into one or more tranches of term loans under the Term Loan B Facility (each an “Incremental Term Loan B Commitment”) in an amount not to exceed the sum of (x) Incremental Shared Term Amount plus (y) such additional amount that would not, after giving effect on a pro forma basis to the incurrence thereof cause the Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio (without netting the cash and Cash Equivalents constituting proceeds of the applicable Incremental Term Loan B Facilities) as at the end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Company for which financial statements are available to exceed 3.50:1.00 from one or more Incremental Term Loan B Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) willing to provide such Incremental Term Loan B Advances in their sole discretion; provided that each Incremental Term Loan B Lender (which is not an existing Lender) shall be subject to the approval requirements of Section 9.07. Such notice shall set forth (A) the amount of the Incremental Term Loan B Commitments being requested (which shall be in multiples of $10,000,000), (B) the date on which such Incremental Term Loan B Commitments are requested to become effective, (C) the terms of such Incremental Term Loan B Commitments and (D) whether such Incremental Term Loan B Commitments are to be on the same terms as the existing Term Loan B Advances of any Class or commitments to make term advances on terms different from the existing Term Loan B Advances of any Class (“Other Term Loan B Advances”). The designation of Commitments as Term Loan B Commitments shall be made pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Incremental Term Loan B Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents,

executed by the Company, the Term Loan B Administrative Agent and each applicable Incremental Term Loan B Lender. No Lender shall be obligated to increase its Term Loan B Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.20(c) unless it so agrees.

(ii) The Company and each Incremental Term Loan B Lender shall execute and deliver to the Term Loan B Administrative Agent an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Agent (each, an “Incremental Term Loan B Assumption Agreement”) to evidence the Incremental Term Loan B Commitment of such Incremental Term Loan B Lender. The Term Loan B Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Term Loan B Assumption Agreement.

(iii) The terms and conditions of any Incremental Term Loan B Facility shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the applicable Incremental Term Loan B Facility Amendment, identical to those of the Term Loan B Advances, as applicable; provided that (A) if the Effective Yield for any Incremental Term Loan B Advances exceeds the Effective Yield for the Term Loan B Advances by more than 50 basis points (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Yield Differential”), then the Applicable Margin for the Term Loan B Advances shall automatically be increased by the Yield Differential, effective upon the making of such Incremental Term Loan B Advances, (B) no Incremental Term Loan B Maturity Date shall be earlier than the Term Loan B Maturity Date, (C) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Incremental Term Loan B Advances shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loan B Advances, (D) the Incremental Term Loan B Advances will rank pari passu in right of payment and with respect to security with the Term Loan B Advances and none of the obligors or guarantors with respect thereto shall be a Person that is not the Company or a Guarantor, (E) the Incremental Term Loan B Advances may participate on a pro rata basis (or on a basis that is less than pro rata) in any mandatory prepayments of the Term Loan B Advances, but may not provide for mandatory prepayment requirements that are more favorable than those applicable to Term Loan B Advances and (F) to the extent the terms of the Incremental Term Loan B Advances are inconsistent with the terms of the Term Loan B Advances (except as set forth in clauses (A), (B) and (C) above), such terms, taken as a whole, no less favorable to the Company, as determined by the Company in good faith, than the terms of Term Loan B Facility and shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Term Loan B Administrative Agent.

ARTICLE VII
GUARANTY

Each Guarantor (for purposes of this Article VII, “Guarantor” shall also include the Company with respect to the Secured Obligations to the extent that the Company is not the primary obligor with respect thereto) hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as a surety, to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, the punctual payment when due, whether at scheduled maturity or on any date of a required prepayment or by acceleration, demand or otherwise, of all obligations of the Company and each Guarantor now or hereafter existing under or in respect of this Agreement and each other Loan Document (including, without limitation, any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments, renewals of or future increases in any or all of the foregoing obligations, whether or not contemplated or provided for by the Loan Documents) and any other Secured Obligations, whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, contract causes of action, costs, expenses or otherwise (such obligations being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by any Agent or any Lender in enforcing any rights under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, to any Agent or any Lender under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be.

Section 7.02 Guaranty Absolute. (a) Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each other Loan Document, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of any Agent or any Lender with respect thereto. The obligations of each Guarantor under or in respect of the guarantee under this Article VII (this “Guaranty”) are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of the Company or any other Guarantor, as the case may be, under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, or whether the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, is joined in any such action or actions, and any failure by any Agent or any Lender to bring any such action, to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Company, any Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such guarantees or to exercise any rights of setoff or any release of the Company, any Guarantor or any other Person or guarantee or right of setoff, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of any Agent or any Lender against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings. The liability of each Guarantor under

124

this Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability against the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any other amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of or any consent to departure from this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any renewal, extension or acceleration, or any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or otherwise;

(iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(iv) any manner of application of any collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligations of the Company or any Guarantor, as the case may be, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any other assets of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(v) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(vi) any failure of any Agent or any Lender to disclose to any Guarantor any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of the Company, any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries now or hereafter known to such Agent or such Lender (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Agents and the Lenders to disclose such information);

(vii) any settlement, compromise, release, discharge of, or acceptance or refusal of any payment or performance with respect to or reduction of liability of the Company, any other Guarantor or other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, or any subordination of the Guaranteed Obligations to any other obligations;

(viii) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, delay in enforcement, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under any Loan Document, at law, in equity

125

or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; or

(ix) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by any Agent or any Lender that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Company or any other Guarantor, as the case may be, as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company, any Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety.

No payment made by the Company, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by any Agent or any Lender from the Company, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment, remain liable for the Guaranteed Obligations until the full discharge of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 7.03 Waivers and Acknowledgments. (a) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, presentment, marshaling, demand for performance, notice of nonperformance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that any Agent or any Lender protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Company, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any collateral.

(b) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.

(c) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives (i) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Agent or any Lender that in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects the subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification rights of such Guarantor or other rights of such Guarantor to proceed against the Company, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or any collateral and (ii) any defense based on any right of set-off, limitation, discharge, termination or counterclaim against or in respect of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder, including, without limitation, failure of consideration, breach of warranty, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury.

(d) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of any Agent or any Lender to disclose to such Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by such Agent or such Lender. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from the Company and each Guarantor on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of the Company and each

126

Guarantor and its ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents, and each Guarantor assumes responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of the Company, each Guarantor and their respective Subsidiaries and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(e) Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in Section 7.02 and this Section 7.03 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

Section 7.04 Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against the Company, any other Guarantor or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under or in respect of this Guaranty, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Agent or any Lender against the Company, any other Guarantor or any other insider guarantor or any collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Company, any other Guarantor or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash (other than (i) contingent obligations for indemnity, expense reimbursement, tax gross-up or yield protection for which no claim has been made and (ii) Secured Obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements, Secured Letters of Credit and Secured Cash Management Obligations to the extent not currently due) and the aggregate Commitments shall have expired or been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the later of (a) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty (other than (i) contingent obligations for indemnity, expense reimbursement, tax gross-up or yield protection for which no claim has been made and (ii) Secured Obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements, Secured Letters of Credit and Secured Cash Management Obligations to the extent not currently due) and (b) the latest final maturity of the Advances then in effect, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, shall be segregated from other property and funds of such Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the applicable Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment to any Agent or any Lender of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash (other than (i) contingent obligations for indemnity, expense reimbursement, tax gross-up or yield protection for which no claim has been made and (ii) Secured Obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements, Secured Letters of Credit and Secured Cash Management Obligations to the extent not currently due) and (iii) the latest final maturity of the Advances then

127

in effect shall have occurred, the Agents and the Lenders will, at any Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment made by such Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty.

Section 7.05 Continuing Guaranty; Assignments. (a) This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not merely of collectability and shall (A) except as set forth in Section 7.05(b), remain in full force and effect until the later of (i) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty (other than (i) contingent obligations for indemnity, expense reimbursement, tax gross-up or yield protection for which no claim has been made and (ii) Secured Obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements, Secured Letters of Credit and Secured Cash Management Obligations to the extent not currently due) and (ii) the latest final maturity of the Advances then in effect, (B) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (C) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Agents and the Lenders and their successors, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of clause (C) of the immediately preceding sentence, any Agent or any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments and the Advances owing to it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Agent or such Lender herein or otherwise, in each case as and to the extent provided in Section 8.06 or 9.07, as the case may be.

(b) The guaranty of a Guarantor or its successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Agent, Lender or other Person in accordance with Section 9.08.

Section 7.06 Limitation on Obligations of Guarantors. (a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, the right of recovery against each Guarantor under this Article VII shall not exceed $1.00 less than the lowest amount which would render such Guarantor’s obligations under this Article VII void or voidable under applicable law, including, without limitation, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to the guaranty set forth herein and the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing, the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of applicable law. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, this Section 7.06 shall be for the benefit solely of creditors and representatives of creditors of each Guarantor and not for the benefit of such Guarantor or the holders of any Equity Interest in such Guarantor.

(b) Each Guarantor agrees that Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time be incurred or permitted in an amount exceeding the maximum liability of such Guarantor under Section 7.06(a) without impairing the guarantee contained in this Article VII or affecting the rights and remedies of any Lender hereunder.

128

Section 7.07 Subordination of the Other Obligations. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 6.01(e), any Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any other Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) whether as original creditor, assignee, or by way of subrogation, restitution or otherwise, is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor following the occurrence and during the continuance of any such Event of Default shall, so long as such Event of Default shall be continuing, be held in trust for the Pro Rata Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid over to such Agent for the benefit of the Lenders to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof.

Section 7.08 Financial Condition of the Company and the Guarantors. Any credit extension may be made to or for the benefit of the Company or continued from time to time without notice to or authorization from the Company or any Guarantor (other than notice to or authorization from the Loan Party party to the applicable credit extension) regardless of the financial or other condition of the Company or any Guarantor at the time of any such grant.

Section 7.09 Reinstatement. If at any time payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any portion thereof is rescinded, disgorged or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Company or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Company or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, or if any Agent or any Lender repays, restores, or returns, in whole or in part, any payment or property previously paid or transferred to such Agent or such Lender in full or partial satisfaction of any Guaranteed Obligation, because the payment or transfer or the incurrence of the obligation so satisfied, is declared to be void, voidable, or otherwise recoverable under any state or federal law (collectively a “Voidable Transfer”), or because such Agent or such Lender elects to do so on the reasonable advice of its counsel in connection with an assertion that the payment, transfer or incurrence is a Voidable Transfer, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer and as to all reasonable costs, expenses and attorney’s fees of such Agent or such Lender related thereto, the liability of each Guarantor hereunder will automatically and immediately be revived, reinstated, and restored and will exist as though the Voidable Transfer had never been made.

Section 7.10 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each Specified Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Agreement in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 7.10 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 7.10, or otherwise under this Agreement, as it relates to such Specified Loan Party, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 7.10 shall remain in full force and effect until the payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations (other than (i) contingent obligations for indemnity, expense reimbursement, tax

129

gross-up or yield protection for which no claim has been made and (ii) Secured Obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements, Secured Letters of Credit and Secured Cash Management Obligations to the extent not currently due). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 7.10 constitute, and this Section 7.10 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each Specified Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 7.11 Guarantees of Secured Hedge Obligations. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in any Loan Document, no non-Qualified ECP Guarantor shall be required to guarantee or provide security for Excluded Swap Obligations, and any reference in any Loan Document with respect to such non-Qualified ECP Guarantor guaranteeing or providing security for the Secured Obligations shall be deemed to be all Secured Obligations other than the Excluded Swap Obligations.

ARTICLE VIII
THE AGENTS

Section 8.01 Appointment and Authority.

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints BTMU and RBC, as applicable, to act on its behalf as the Pro Rata Administrative Agent and Term Loan B Administrative Agent, as applicable, hereunder and authorizes each Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agents by the terms hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, and, except as expressly set forth in Section 8.06, the Company shall not have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 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 any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

(b) Each of the Lenders hereby (i) irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Company and the Guarantors to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto and (ii) directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Collateral Documents. In this connection, the Collateral Agent and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Collateral Agent hereunder for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Collateral Agent or for performing any of its or their other obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, shall be entitled to the benefits of, and shall be entitled to enforce, all provisions of this Article VIII and Article IX (including Sections 8.05, 9.01 and 9.04) (in the case of such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact, as if they were the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents and as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto).

130

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized to (i) execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents and (ii) negotiate, enforce or settle any claim, action or proceeding affecting the Lenders in their capacity as such, at the direction of the applicable Majority Lenders, which negotiation, enforcement or settlement will be binding upon each Lender. In the event that any obligations (other than the Secured Obligations) are permitted to be incurred hereunder and secured by Liens permitted to be incurred hereunder on all or a portion of the Collateral, each Lender authorizes each Agent to enter into intercreditor agreements, subordination agreements and amendments to the Collateral Documents to reflect such arrangements on terms acceptable to such Agent. The Collateral Agent shall, except in the case of any obligation to any Loan Party expressly set forth in any Loan Document, be entitled to request the written direction of the other Agents to enter into any such intercreditor agreements, subordination agreements, additional Collateral Documents and amendments to the Collateral Documents and to refrain from executing such documents until such written direction is received.

Section 8.02 Rights as a Lender.

Each Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as an Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Each such Person and its 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, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 8.03 Exculpatory Provisions.

(a) No Agent shall 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, the Agents:

(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Potential Event of Default or Event of 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 each Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability 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

131

relief law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any debtor relief law; and

(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 the Company or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as an Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b) No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the applicable Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 9.01 and 6.01), 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. Each Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Potential Event of Default or Event of Default or the event or events that give or may give rise to any Potential Event of Default or Event of Default unless and until the Company or any Lender shall have given notice to the Agent describing such Potential Event of Default or Event of Default and such event or events.

(c) No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with 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 Potential Event of Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.

Section 8.04 Reliance by Agents.

(a) Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of an Advance that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless an officer of such Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated hereby shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Advance, and such Lender shall not have made available to such Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of the applicable Borrowing. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be

132

counsel for the Company), 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.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder, other than any such action or failure to act expressly required hereunder or thereunder, unless and until the Collateral Agent shall have received written instructions in respect thereof from the Majority Lenders or another Agent.

Section 8.05 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent (to the extent the Company is required to reimburse each Agent pursuant to Section 9.04 and only to the extent not reimbursed by the Company), ratably according to the respective principal amounts of the Advances then held by each of them (or if no Advances are at the time outstanding or if any Advances are held by Persons which are not Lenders, ratably according to the respective amounts of their Commitments), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by any Agent under this Agreement, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from any Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse each Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, syndication, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Company.

Section 8.06 Resignation of Any Agent. (a) Each Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the applicable Majority Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor, 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 the applicable Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the applicable Majority Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

133

(b) If the Person serving as an Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (v) of the definition thereof, the applicable Majority Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Company and such Person remove such Person as an Agent and, in consultation with the Company, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the applicable Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the applicable Majority Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly and, during such period, the Company shall have no obligation to pay to any Person the fees described in Section 2.04(b), until such time, if any, as the applicable Majority Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as an Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties as an Agent of the retiring or removed Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Agent), and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Company to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed 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 Agent was acting as an Agent.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, any Person into which the Collateral Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Collateral Agent is a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Collateral Agent, shall be the successor of the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, merger, conversion or consolidation. The Collateral Agent shall forthwith notify the parties hereto in writing of any such event.

Section 8.07 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder by or through any one or more sub‑agents appointed by such Agent. Each Agent and any such sub‑agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. Each such sub‑agent and the Related Parties of any Agent and each such sub‑agent shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.04 (as though such sub-agents were an “Agent” hereunder) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

134

Section 8.08 Non-Reliance on Any Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 8.09 Other Agents. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that neither the syndication agents, nor the documentation agents or any other Lender designated as any “Agent” on the cover page hereof (other than the Agents) has any liability hereunder other than in its capacity as a Lender (to the extent it is a Lender).

ARTICLE IX
MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.01 Amendments, Etc.

No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by the Company or any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Majority Lenders, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by (or consented to by) each Lender affected thereby, do any of the following:

(a) waive any of the conditions specified in Section 3.01 or 3.02;

(b) increase the Commitments of such Lender;

(c) reduce the principal of, or rate of interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable to such Lender hereunder;

(d) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable to such Lender hereunder;

(e) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Advances, or the number of Lenders, that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder;

(f) release substantially all, in value, of the Guarantors from their guaranties set forth in Article VII hereof;

(g) release all or substantially all the Collateral from the Liens of the Collateral Documents; or

135

(h) amend this Section 9.01 or the definition of “Majority Lenders” or “Majority Facility Lenders”;

and provided, further that (w) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the applicable Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of such Agent under this Agreement or any Note, (x) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Swing Line Bank, affect the rights or duties of the Swing Line Bank under this Agreement, (y) no amendment, waiver or consent shall be made to modify Section 5.02(m) or any definition related thereto (as any such definition is used for purposes of Section 5.02(m)), accelerate any Pro Rata Facility upon a breach of Section 5.02(m) or waive any Potential Event of Default or Event of Default resulting from a failure to perform or observe the requirements of Section 5.02(m) without the written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders under the Pro Rata Facilities; provided, however, that the amendments, waivers and consents described in this clause (y) shall not require the consent of any Lenders other than the Majority Facility Lenders under the Pro Rata Facilities and (z) the consent of Lenders having at least a majority in interest of a Facility shall be required with respect to any amendment or waiver that by its terms adversely affects the rights of Lenders under such Facility in respect of payments hereunder in a manner that is materially worse than the manner in which such amendment or waiver affects other Facilities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended nor amounts owed to such Lender reduced or the final maturity thereof extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

In addition, the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize each Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (each an “Extension Amendment”) as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches in respect of Extended Advances and such amendments as permitted by the succeeding sentence as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of such Agent and the Company in connection with the establishment of such new tranches of Advances. No consent of any Lender or any other Person will be required to effectuate any Extension, other than the consent of the applicable Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or condition), the Company and the applicable Consenting Lender.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Incremental Revolving Assumption Agreement, Incremental Term Loan A Facility Amendment and Incremental Term Loan B Facility Amendment may be effected in accordance with Section 2.20 without the consent of any Lenders other than the Incremental Lenders providing the Incremental Facility contemplated thereby.

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Pro Rata Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Company and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Advances (as defined below) to permit the refinancing, replacement or modification of all or a portion of the outstanding Advances of any Class (each, “Replaced Advances”) and, in the case of the Revolving Facility, all or any portion of the Commitments of such Class (each, “Replaced Commitments”) with a

136

replacement facility hereunder (each, “Replacement Advances” and “Replacement Commitments”), provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Advances or Replacement Commitments shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Replaced Advances or Replaced Commitments and (b) the Maturity Date and Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Advances shall not be less than or earlier than such Replaced Advances and, in the case of the Revolving Facility, the commitment termination date with respect to such Replacement Commitments shall not be earlier than such Replaced Commitments.

Furthermore, and notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Section 9.01, if the Agents and the Company shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Agents and the Company shall be permitted to amend such provision, and such amendments shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Majority Lenders within five Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

Furthermore, and notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Section 9.01, if the Pro Rata Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Bank and the Company shall have jointly identified an issue of an operational nature in any provision of this Agreement related to the Swing Line Sub-Facility, then the Pro Rata Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Bank and the Company shall be permitted to amend such provision, and such amendments shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party hereto if the same is not objected to in writing by the Majority Lenders within five Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

This Agreement and, except as otherwise specified herein, any documents delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile or other electronic delivery. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed originals and shall be binding on the Company, the Guarantors, the Agents and the Lenders. The Agents may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

(d) Reliance by the Agents and Lenders. The Agents and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of the Company or the Guarantors even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Company shall indemnify each Indemnified Person from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor.

Any Agent, the Company or any Guarantor may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

Unless any Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an email address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return email or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its email address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.

(f) Change of Address, etc. Any party hereto may change its address or facsimile number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.

(ii) The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, 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 any Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Company, any Guarantor, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Company’s, any Guarantor’s or any 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 the Company or any Guarantor pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions

139

contemplated therein which is distributed to any Agent or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through the Platform.

Section 9.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender or any Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Section 9.04 Costs, Expenses and Indemnification.

(a) The Company agrees to pay promptly on demand all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses of the Arrangers and the Agents (in their respective capacities as such) in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, syndication, modification and amendment of this Agreement, and the other documents to be delivered hereunder or thereunder, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of a single counsel for the Arrangers and the Agents and, if necessary, of a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the party affected by such conflict informs the Company of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected party, with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Arrangers and the Agents as to their respective rights and responsibilities hereunder. The Company further agrees to pay promptly on demand all costs and expenses of each Agent and of each Lender, if any (including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and out-of-pocket expenses), in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the enforcement of rights under this Section 9.04(a). This Section 9.04(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(b) If any payment of principal of any Eurocurrency Rate Advance extended to the Company is made other than on the last day of the interest period for such Advance, as a result of a payment pursuant to Section 2.06 or acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, the Company shall, upon demand by any Lender (with a copy of such demand to applicable Agent), pay to the applicable Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance.

(c) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent (in its capacity as such), each Lender and each director, officer, employee, agent, attorney and affiliate of each Agent and each Lender and each director, officer, employee, agent and attorney of each Agent’s and each Lender’s affiliate (each an “Indemnified Person”) in connection with any expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which an Agent, a Lender or such Indemnified Persons may become subject, insofar as such expenses, losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or other

140

proceedings commenced or threatened in respect thereof) arise out of the transactions referred to in this Agreement or arise from any use or intended use of the proceeds of the Advances, or in any way arise out of activities of the Company or the Guarantors that violate Environmental Laws, and to reimburse each Agent, each Lender and each Indemnified Person, upon their demand, for any reasonable legal or other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with investigating, defending or participating in any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action or other proceeding, whether commenced or threatened (whether or not such Agent, such Lender or any such person is a party to any action or proceeding out of which any such expense arises); provided that nothing in this Section 9.04(c) shall obligate the Company to pay the normal expenses of the Agents in the administration of this Agreement in the absence of pending or threatened litigation or other proceedings or the claims or threatened claims of others and then only to the extent arising therefrom. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation hereunder to an Indemnified Person with respect to indemnified liabilities which have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person, as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction, or which have resulted from a claim brought by the Company or any Guarantor against an Indemnified Person for breach in bad faith of such Indemnified Person’s obligations hereunder in which the Company or such Guarantor has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Company or any Guarantor, any of the Company’s equity holders or creditors, an Indemnified Person or any other person or entity, whether or not an Indemnified Person is otherwise a party thereto. This Section 9.04(c) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, neither the Company nor any Guarantor shall assert, and the Company and each Guarantor each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnified Person, 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, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby, any Advance or the use of the proceeds thereof.

Section 9.05 Right of Set-off. Upon (i) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Agents to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (time or demand, provisional or final, or general, but not special (in whatever currency)) at any time held and other indebtedness (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Company or the Guarantors against any and all of the obligations of the Company or the Guarantors (as the case may be) now or hereafter existing under this Agreement that are then due and payable, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement, and each such Affiliate is hereby irrevocably authorized to permit such setoff and application. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Company after any such set-off and application made by such Lender,

141

provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which such Lender may have.

Section 9.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be deemed to have been executed and delivered when it shall have been executed by the Company, the Guarantors and the Agents and when the Agents shall have been notified by each Bank that such Bank has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, each Guarantor, each Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that, other than as expressly provided herein, none of the Company or any Guarantor shall have the right to assign its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of all Lenders. This Agreement and the fee letter referred to in Section 2.04(b) constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous oral agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.

Section 9.07 Assignments and Participations.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. No Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.07(b), (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.07(d) or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 9.07(e) (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 paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents 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 assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment(s) and the Advances at the time owing to it); provided that (in each case with respect to any Facility), any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Advances at the time owing to it (in each case with respect to any Facility) or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the

142

principal outstanding balance of the Advances of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the applicable Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than (i) with respect to the Pro Rata Facilities, $5,000,000 and (ii) with respect to the Term Loan B Facility, $1,000,000, in each case in increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and unless the applicable Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Advance or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis.

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

(A) the consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or 6.01(e) has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (y) (1) in the case of any assignment of rights and obligations in respect of a Term Facility, such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund and (2) in the case of any assignment of rights and obligations in respect of a Revolving Facility, such assignment is to a Lender with a Commitment in respect of such Facility, an Affiliate of such a Lender or an approved fund with respect to such a Lender; provided that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the applicable Agent within ten Business Days after having received notice thereof;

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

(C) the consent of each Swing Line Bank with a Swing Line Commitment (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of the Revolving Facility to the extent that the Swing Line Sub-Facility is greater than zero.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the applicable Agent an Assignment and Assumption together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the applicable Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment;

143

provided further that such processing and recordation fee shall be waived in respect of any assignments made between BTMU and RBC and their respective Affiliates. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the applicable Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries (except pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(iii) or Section 9.07(b)(viii)) or (B) any Defaulting Lender or potential Defaulting Lender or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).

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

(vii) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the applicable Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Company and the applicable Agent, the applicable Ratable Share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the applicable Agent, each Swing Line Bank and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Ratable Share of all Advances and participations in Swing Line Advances in accordance with its Ratable Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(viii) Assignment to the Company. Any Lender may, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and no proceeds of Revolving Loan Advances are applied to fund the consideration for any such assignment, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Term Advances under this Agreement to the Company through (x) Dutch auctions open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with procedures of the type described in Section 2.06(c)(iii) or (y) notwithstanding Sections 2.11 and 2.13 or any other provision in this Agreement, open market purchase on a non-pro rata basis; provided that in connection with assignments pursuant to clauses (x) and (y) above, if the assignee is the Company, (%5) the principal amount of such Term Advances, along with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, so contributed, assigned or transferred to the Company shall be deemed automatically cancelled and extinguished on the date of such contribution, assignment or transfer, (%5) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Advances of the remaining Lenders shall reflect such cancellation and extinguishing of the Term Advances then held by the Company and (%5) the Company shall promptly

144

provide notice to the applicable Agent of such assignment or transfer of such Term Advances, and the applicable Agent, upon receipt of such notice, shall reflect the cancellation of the applicable Term Advances in the Register.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the applicable Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.12 and 9.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. Each Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Company, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States 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 Advances owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Company, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any Lender, 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, the Company, the Guarantors, the Agents or the other Lenders, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (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 Advances owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Company, the Guarantors, the Agents and 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 8.05 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

145

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 Section 9.01(b), (c) or (d) that affects such Participant. The Company and the Guarantors each agree, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.12 and 9.04(b) (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.12(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.12(f) 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 2.17 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.10 or 2.12, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Company's request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Company to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.17(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.05 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 a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and currency and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Advances or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (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, no Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have any 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 other governmental 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.

Section 9.08 Release of Liens and Guarantee. A Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by the Collateral Documents in Collateral owned by such Guarantor shall be automatically released, upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary (including any voluntary liquidation or dissolution of such Guarantor in accordance with Section 5.02(h)); provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Majority Lenders shall have consented to such transaction

146

and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise. Upon any sale or other transfer by the Company or any Guarantor (other than to the Company or any Guarantor) of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest created under any Collateral Document in any Collateral or the release of any Guarantor from its guarantee hereunder pursuant to Section 9.01, the security interests in such Collateral created by the Collateral Documents or such guarantee shall be automatically released. Upon termination of the aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than (i) contingent obligations for indemnity, expense reimbursement, tax gross-up or yield protection for which no claim has been made and (ii) Secured Obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements, Secured Letters of Credit and Secured Cash Management Obligations to the extent not currently due), all obligations under the Loan Documents and all security interests created by the Collateral Documents shall be automatically released. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 9.08, the Pro Rata Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to the Company or any Guarantor, at the Company’s or such Guarantor’s expense, all documents that the Company or such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Pro Rata Administrative Agent.

Section 9.09 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Section 9.10 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 9.11 Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Immunities. The Company and the Guarantors each irrevocably and unconditionally agree that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any Agent or any Lender, or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or the transactions relating hereto, in each case 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 for the Southern District of New York sitting in New York County, 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 State 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 shall affect any right that any Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against the Company, the Guarantors or their properties in the courts of any jurisdiction. The Company and the Guarantors each 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 in any court referred to in this

147

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.

Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, provided, however, that, except in the case of disclosure to bank regulators or examiners in accordance with customary banking practices, if legally permitted, written notice of each instance in which Information is required or requested to be disclosed shall be furnished to the Company not less than 30 days prior to the expected date of such disclosure or, if 30 days’ notice is not practicable under the circumstances, as promptly as practicable under the circumstances, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.19, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives) to any swap or derivative or similar transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Company and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (iii) any rating agency, or (iv) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, (g) with the consent of the Company or (h) 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 any Agent or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries relating to the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to any Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information

149

as provided in this Section 9.19 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.

Each of the Company and each Guarantor acknowledges that each of the Agents, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lender Parties”) (i) is acting pursuant to a contractual relationship on an arm’s length basis, and the parties hereto do not intend that any Lender Party act or be responsible as a fiduciary to the Company or the Guarantors, the Company’s or any Guarantor’s management, stockholders or creditors or any other person and (ii) may be engaged, for their own accounts or the accounts of customers, in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and its Affiliates, and none of the Agents, the Lenders or their Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Company or its Affiliates. Each of the Company, each Guarantor and each Lender Party hereby expressly disclaims any fiduciary relationship and agrees they are each responsible for making their own independent judgments with respect to any transactions entered into between them. Each of the Company and each Guarantor also hereby acknowledges that no Lender Party has advised nor is advising it as to any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax matters, and that the Company and each Guarantor are consulting its own advisors concerning such matters to the extent they deem appropriate.

Schedule 1-2

SCHEDULE 1.01(a) – Litigation and Investigations

Maryland Medicaid Enterprise Restructuring Project

On March 1, 2012, CSC was competitively awarded the Maryland Medicaid Enterprise Restructuring Project (“MERP”) contract by the State of Maryland (the “State”) to modernize the Medicaid Management Information System, a database of Medicaid recipients and providers used to manage Medicaid reimbursement claims. This contract is one of the contracts we expect CSC to transfer to us following the Spin-Off. The MERP contract is predominately fixed-price. Since the date the MERP contract was awarded, U.S. federal government-mandated Medicaid IT standards have been in considerable flux. The State directed CSC to include additional functionality in the design to incorporate new federal mandates and guidance promulgated after the base scope of the contract was finalized. Further, the State declined to approve contract modifications to compensate CSC for the additional work.

As a result of the State’s refusal to amend the MERP contract and equitably adjust the compensation to be paid to CSC and, in accordance with prescribed State statutes and regulations, CSC timely filed a certified contract claim, Contract Claim #1, with the State in the total estimated amount of approximately $61 million on September 27, 2013. On February 14, 2014, CSC filed Contract Claim #1A, which amends Contract Claim #1, to a claim of approximately $34 million. The Company, which is expected to succeed CSC on these claims, believes it has valid and reasonable factual and legal bases for Contract Claims #1 and 1A and that the circumstances that have led or will lead to the Company’s additional costs set forth in Contract Claims #1 and 1A were unforeseen as of the operative proposal submission dates and are not the result of deficiencies in CSC’s or the Company’s performance. However, our position is subject to the ongoing evaluation of new facts and information that may come to our attention should an appeal of the State’s denial of Contract Claims #1 and 1A be litigated before the Maryland State Board of Contract Appeals (the “State Board”).

On February 19, 2014, the State provided a recommended decision denying Contract Claims #1 and 1A. The February 19, 2014 recommended decision was not a final agency determination on the claims. On April 29, 2014, the State provided a final decision, dated April 25, 2014, denying the claims. On May 28, 2014, CSC filed a Notice of Appeal with the State Board, which has exclusive initial jurisdiction of State contract claims concerning breach, performance, modification, or termination of contracts procured under Title II of Maryland’s General Procurement Law. The appeal, which will now be pursued by us, is currently pending before the State Board.

Schedule 1.01(a)

On August 22, 2014, the State unilaterally suspended performance under the Contract for 90 days. On September 12, 2014, the State modified its August 22 suspension of the Contract and authorized CSC, during the remainder of the 90-day suspension, to assign up to nine full-time-equivalent staff to perform various analyses of cost and schedule. On November 20, 2014, the State sent a letter extending the suspension until January 5, 2015, and on January 2, 2015, the State again extended the suspension until February 20, 2015.

As the result of the 90-day suspension, as extended, and other actions and inactions by the State in performance of its obligations under and management of the Contract, CSC filed a second set of Claims with the State Board, Claims #2A-D. Claim #2A, in the amount of $77 million, asserts that CSC’s contractual undertaking did not include an agreement to receive reduced and delayed payments, and the State’s unilateral imposition of such reductions and delays, together with the other factors result in a material change to the Contract entitling CSC to compensation for all costs incurred to date, including all liabilities incurred and fees, as well as expected profit under the full contract. Alternatively, Claim #2B, in the amount of $65 million, asserts that the Maryland General Assembly’s reduction to the appropriations for the MERP Project for fiscal 2015 effectively cancels the MERP contract, entitling CSC to recover all costs incurred to date including all liabilities incurred, and a reasonable allowance for profit on costs and liabilities. Similarly, Claims #2C, also in the amount of $65 million, asserts that the State’s actions, inactions, and decisions amount to a constructive termination for convenience entitling CSC to recover all costs incurred to date, including all liabilities incurred, and reasonable allowance for profit on costs and liabilities. Claim #2D is a claim for suspension costs during the 90-day period of $3 million, including labor costs, facilities costs and other costs needed to remain ready to restart the program.

Since April 2015, CSC and the State have been in negotiations regarding the matters in litigation before the State Board, and the contract has been extended to accommodate those discussions. Management has evaluated the recoverability of assets related to this contract in light of these developments and concluded that no adjustments were required as of April 3, 2015.

Xxxxxxx et al. Fair Labor Standards Act Class Action

On July 1, 2014, plaintiffs filed Xxxxxxx and Xxxxx x. Computer Sciences Corporation in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut, a putative nationwide class action alleging that CSC violated provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”) with respect to system administrators who worked for CSC at any time from June 1, 2011 to the present. Plaintiffs claim that CSC improperly classified its system administrators as exempt from the FLSA and that CSC

Schedule 1.01(a)

therefore owes them overtime wages and associated relief available under the FLSA and various statutes, including the Connecticut Minimum Wage Act, the California Unfair Competition Law, California Labor Code, California Wage Order No. 4-2001, and the California Private Attorneys General Act. The relief sought by plaintiffs includes unpaid overtime compensation, liquidated damages, pre- and post-judgment interest, damages in the amount of twice the unpaid overtime wages due, and civil penalties.

CSC’s position is that its system administrators have the job duties, responsibilities, and salaries of exempt employees and are properly classified as exempt from overtime compensation requirements. CSC’s Motion to Transfer Venue was denied in February 2015.

On June 9, 2015, the Court entered an order granting the plaintiffs’ motion for conditional certification of the class of system administrators. The Xxxxxxx putative class includes more than 4,000 system administrators, of whom 1,865 are employed by us and the remainder of whom are employed by CSC. Courts typically undertake a two-stage review in determining whether a suit may proceed as a class action under the FLSA. In its order, the Court noted that, as a first step, the Court examines pleadings and affidavits, and if it finds that proposed class members are similarly situated, the class is conditionally certified. Potential class members are then notified and given an opportunity to opt in to the action. The second step of the class certification analysis occurs upon completion of discovery. At that point, the Court will examine all evidence then in the record to determine whether there is a sufficient basis to conclude that the proposed class members are similarly situated. If it is determined that they are, the case will proceed to trial; if it is determined they are not, the class is decertified and only the individual claims of the purported class representatives proceed. The Business’s position in this litigation continues to be that the employees identified as belonging to the conditional class were paid in accordance with the FLSA.

CECOM Rapid Response Demand Letter

On July 12, 2013, the U.S. Army’s Communications-Electronics Command (“CECOM”) issued a demand letter based upon DCAA audit reports and Forms 1, for reimbursement in the amount of $235 million in costs that CSC allegedly overcharged under its Rapid Response (“R2”) contract (Contract No. DAAB07-03-D-B007) by placing CSC, interdivisional, teammate, and vendor employees in R2 labor categories for which they were not qualified. CSC’s position has been that, in most instances, the individuals in question met the contract requirements for their labor categories, and that, in all instances, DCAA and CECOM have ignored the value the government received for CSC’s work. CSC and CECOM have engaged in discussions in an attempt to resolve this issue but,

Schedule 1.01(a)

at this point in time, there can be no assurance that the parties will be able to resolve their differences, in which case the Business would litigate this matter.

NetCracker Technology Corp.

In August 2013, CSC received a Civil Investigative Demand from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Civil Division seeking documents and information regarding CSC’s contract with the Defense Information Systems Agency (“DISA”) and its subcontract with NetCracker Technology Corp. (“NetCracker”). Since that time, CSC has cooperated with a government investigation into issues on this subcontract. On March 26, 2015, CSC received a letter from the Civil Division claiming that CSC violated the False Claims Act and breached its contract with DISA based upon actions taken by NetCracker in performing its work on the subcontract. The U.S. federal government’s letter asserted that its single damages from CSC “could be” $15.5 million. Because the government has not yet filed a lawsuit making a particularized claim, potential claimed damages may be different from those thus far asserted. Nevertheless in our experience it would be unusual and unlikely for the government to make a materially higher claim for its single damages. In addition, the False Claims Act permits the government to recover treble damages and penalties. CSC has taken the position that it has not engaged in any conduct that would violate the False Claims Act.

DynCorp

In connection with CSC's acquisition of DynCorp in 2003 and its divestiture of substantially all of that business in two separate transactions (in 2005 to The Veritas Capital Fund II L.P, and DI Acquisition Corp. and in 2013 to Pacific Architects and Engineers, Incorporated (collectively, the "DynCorp Divestitures")), CSC assumed and Computer Sciences GS Business will retain various environmental indemnities of DynCorp and its former subsidiaries arising from environmental representations and warranties under which DynCorp agreed to indemnify the purchasers of its subsidiaries DynAir Tech and DynAir Services by Sabreliner Corporation and ALPHA Airports Group PLC, respectively. As part of the DynCorp Divestitures, CSC also assumed and Computer Sciences GS Business will also retain indemnities for insured litigation associated with dormant suits by former employees of DynCorp subsidiaries alleging exposure to asbestos and other substances; other indemnities related to a 2001 case arising from counter-narcotics spraying in Colombia under a U.S. Department of State contract and the associated coverage litigation involving the aviation insurance underwriters; and an environmental remediation case involving HRI, a former wholly-owned subsidiary of DynCorp, in Lawrenceville, New Jersey. Computer Sciences GS Business does not anticipate any material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows from these indemnities.
