Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency interbank offered rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Borrower may designate.

ARTICLE II The Credits

SECTION 2.01 Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Revolving Credit Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Revolving Loans to one or more Co-Borrowers, at any time and from time to time on or after the Closing Date and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Termination Date and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided, however, that at no time (after giving effect to the making of such Revolving Credit Loans and the use of the proceeds thereof) may the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceed Maximum Availability. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Co-Borrowers may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

SECTION 2.02 Loans and Borrowings. (a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.02(d) and subject to Section 2.22 relating to Swingline Loans, the Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof or, if lesser, an amount equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.

(b) Subject to Sections 2.12 and 2.18, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or LIBOR Rate Loans as the Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03. Each Lender may at its option make any LIBOR Rate Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that (i) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Co-Borrowers to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) in exercising such option, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to minimize any increase in the Adjusted LIBOR Rate or increased costs to the Co-Borrowers resulting therefrom (which obligation of such Lender shall not require it to take, or refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in increased costs for which it will not be compensated hereunder or that it otherwise determines would be disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the provisions of Section 2.13 shall apply); provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than twelve LIBOR Rate Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any time; provided, further that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent the

73

last date of Interest Periods for multiple LIBOR Rate Borrowings of different Revolving Loans fall on the same day, such LIBOR Rate Borrowings shall be considered a single LIBOR Rate Borrowing for the purpose of determining whether a requested Borrowing would result in more than twelve LIBOR Rate Borrowings.

(c) For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Revolving Credit Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

(e) If the Issuing Bank shall not have received from the Co-Borrowers the payment required to be made by Section 2.23(e) with respect to a Letter of Credit within the time specified in such Section, the Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Agent of the L/C Disbursement and the Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such L/C Disbursement and its Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Agent not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date (or, if such Revolving Credit Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on any day, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business Day), an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement (it being understood that such amount shall be deemed to constitute an ABR Revolving Loan of such Lender and such payment shall be deemed to have reduced the L/C Exposure), and the Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from the Co-Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.23(e) prior to the time that any Revolving Credit Lender makes any payment pursuant to this paragraph (e); any such amounts received by the Agent thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made such payments and to the Issuing Bank, as their interests may appear. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement available to the Agent as provided above, such Lender and the Co-Borrowers severally agree to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with this paragraph (e) to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of the Co-Borrowers, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans, and (ii) in the case of such Lender, for the first such day, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and for each day thereafter, the Alternate Base Rate.

SECTION 2.03 Request for Borrowing. (a) In order to request a Borrowing (other a Swingline Loan or a deemed Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(d), as to which this Section 2.03 shall not apply), the Borrower shall hand deliver to the Agent a duly completed Borrowing Request (i) in the case of a LIBOR Rate Borrowing, not later than

74

12:00 Noon, New York City time, three Business Days before a proposed Borrowing and (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day before a proposed Borrowing. Each Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable (except in the case of the one in respect of the Closing Date if the Closing Date does not occur), shall be signed by or on behalf of the Borrower (on behalf of the applicable Co-Borrower) and shall specify the following information:

(1) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;

(2) the Excess Availability (after giving effect to the proposed borrowing);

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

(4) whether the Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a LIBOR Rate Borrowing;

(5) in the case of a LIBOR Rate Borrowing, the initial Interest Period with respect thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and

(6) the Co-Borrower(s) for whose benefit the Loan is to be made and the number and location of the accounts to which funds are to be disbursed;

provided, however, that, notwithstanding any contrary specification in any Borrowing Request, each requested Borrowing shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 2.02.

(b) If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any LIBOR Rate Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the relevant Co-Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of the Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03, the Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.04 Funding of Borrowings. (a) Subject to Section 2.22 relating to Swingline Loans, each Lender shall make the Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date of Borrowing thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 (noon), New York City time, and the Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to the account or accounts designated in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

75

(b) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.04 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Co-Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the Borrowing available to the Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Co-Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Co-Borrowers to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Co-Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the Borrowing on the Closing Date or other applicable Borrowing date. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Agent or the Co-Borrowers or any Loan Party may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

SECTION 2.05 Type; Interest Elections. (a) The Loans initially shall be of the Type specified in the Borrowing Request and, in the case of a LIBOR Rate Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Revolving Loans made on the Closing Date may be LIBOR Rate Loans so long as the Borrower delivers a completed Borrowing Request not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the Closing Date. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert all or any portion of any Borrowing (other than Swingline Loans and subject to the minimum amounts for Borrowings of the applicable Type specified in Section 2.02(a)) to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a LIBOR Rate Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.05. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.05, the Borrower shall notify the Agent of such election by fax or e-mail (i) in the case of an election to convert to or continue as a LIBOR Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed conversion or continuation or (ii) in the case of an election to convert to or continue as an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed conversion or continuation, subject in each case to the following:

76

(i) each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Loans comprising the converted or continued Borrowing;

(ii) if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing shall satisfy the limitations specified in Sections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b) regarding the principal amount and maximum number of Borrowings of the relevant Type;

(iii) each conversion shall be effected by each Lender and the Agent by recording for the account of such Lender the new Loan of such Lender resulting from such conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an equivalent principal amount; accrued interest on any LIBOR Rate Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the Co-Borrowers at the time of conversion;

(iv) if any LIBOR Rate Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Co-Borrowers shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.14;

(v) any portion of a Borrowing maturing or scheduled to be repaid in less than one month may not be converted into or continued as a LIBOR Rate Borrowing; and

(vi) any portion of a LIBOR Rate Borrowing that cannot be converted into or continued as a LIBOR Rate Borrowing by reason of the immediately preceding clause shall be automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing.

Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(b) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

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

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

77

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

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

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

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

(d) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a LIBOR Rate Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a LIBOR Rate Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each LIBOR Rate Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.06 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, (i) the Revolving Credit Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Revolving Credit Termination Date or earlier, if otherwise required by the terms hereof and (ii) the Swingline Commitment and the L/C Commitment shall terminate in accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 2.22 and 2.23.

(b) Upon at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable written or fax notice to the Agent (or such shorter notice as the Agent may agree), the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Swingline Commitment; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments or the Swingline Commitment shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and (ii) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure then in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, a notice of reduction or termination of any Commitment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, indentures or similar agreements or any other event, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified prepayment date) if such condition is not satisfied;

78

provided that the Co-Borrowers shall be obligated to pay any amounts due under Section 2.14 as a result of such revocation.

(c) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, on the date of each termination or reduction, the Commitment Fees on the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments so terminated or reduced after the Closing Date accrued to but excluding the date of such termination or reduction.

SECTION 2.07 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Co-Borrowers, jointly and severally, hereby unconditionally promise to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender made to the Co-Borrowers on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Co-Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c) The Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Co-Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 2.07 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Co-Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Co-Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in substantially the form of Exhibit F hereto. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein and its registered assigns.

SECTION 2.08 Optional Prepayment of Loans. (a) Upon prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section 2.08, the Co-Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 2.14).

(b) Except as provided in Section 2.22 with respect to Swingline Loans, the Borrower shall notify the Agent by fax or e-mail of any prepayment hereunder (i)

79

in the case of prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon New York City time, one (1) Business Day prior to the prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify (w) the prepayment date and the amount of such prepayment, (x) the principal amount to be repaid, (y) whether the prepayment is of Revolving Credit Loans or Swingline Loans or a combination thereof, and, if of a combination thereof, the amount of prepayment allocable to each and (z) whether the prepayment is of LIBOR Rate Loans or ABR Loans or a combination thereof, and, if of a combination thereof, the amount of prepayment allocable to each, provided, however, that the Co-Borrowers shall not prepay any Swingline Loans on any day on which the Borrower has requested a borrowing thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Except as provided in Section 2.22 with respect to Swingline Loans, each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.11. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, a notice of prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, indentures or similar agreements or any other event, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified prepayment date) if such condition is not satisfied.

SECTION 2.09 Mandatory Prepayment of Loans. (a) In the event of any termination of all the Revolving Credit Commitments, each Co-Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all its outstanding Revolving Credit Borrowings and all its outstanding Swingline Loans and replace all its outstanding Letters of Credit and/or unless the Issuing Bank otherwise agrees deposit an amount equal to the undrawn portion of the L/C Exposure in cash in a cash collateral account established with the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Bank. If as a result of any partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment after giving effect thereto, then each Co-Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, repay or prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings or Swingline Loans (or a combination thereof) and/or Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. If at any time, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeds the aggregate Maximum Availability at such time, then each Co-Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, repay or prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings or Swingline Loans (or a combination thereof, in each case, without a corresponding reduction in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment) and/or Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

80

(b) Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest as required by Section 2.11. All prepayments of Borrowings under this Section 2.09 shall be subject to Section 2.14, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.

(c) The Co-Borrowers hereby irrevocably waive the right to direct, during a Cash Dominion Trigger Period, the application of all funds in the Cash Concentration Account or any other Approved Deposit Account (or any Cash Collateral Account under the direction of any Loan Party, if any) and agrees that the Agent may and, upon the written direction of the Required Lenders given at any time during such Cash Dominion Trigger Period, shall (i) deliver a notice of exclusive control (as described in each Deposit Account Control Agreement) to each Deposit Account Bank for each Approved Deposit Account and (ii) except, as provided in Section 2.16(c), apply all payments in respect of any Obligations and all available funds in the Cash Concentration Account or any other Approved Deposit Account on a daily basis as follows: first, to repay Protective Advances and the outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Loans until such Protective Advances and Swingline Loans have been repaid in full; second, to repay the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans until such Revolving Credit Loans shall have been repaid in full; and then to any other Obligation then due and payable. The Co-Borrowers consent to such application. If (i) following such application, (ii) outside of a Cash Dominion Trigger Period or (iii) after all Letters of Credit shall have expired or be fully drawn and all Revolving Credit Commitments shall have been terminated, there are no Loans outstanding and no other Obligations that are then due and payable, then the Agent shall cause any remaining funds in the Cash Concentration Account to be paid at the written direction of the Borrower (or, in the absence of such direction, to the Borrower or another Person lawfully entitled thereto). Without diminishing the control of the Agent over amounts from time to time on deposit in any Cash Collateral Account, the Agent shall from time to time (upon the request of the Borrower so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) promptly return to the Borrower any amounts on deposit in such Cash Collateral Account which are in excess of the amount required to be deposited therein under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 2.10 Fees. (a) From and after the Closing Date, the Co-Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to each Lender, through the Agent on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year and on each date on which any Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein, a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender (other than the Swingline Commitment) during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the Closing Date or ending with the Revolving Credit Termination Date or the date on which the Commitments of such Lender shall expire or be terminated). All Commitment Fees under this Section 2.10(a) shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. The Commitment Fee due to each Lender shall begin to accrue on the Closing Date and shall cease to accrue on the date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated

81

as provided herein. For purposes of calculating Commitment Fees with respect to Revolving Credit Commitments only, no portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be deemed utilized under Section 2.22 as a result of outstanding Swingline Loans.

(b) From and after the Closing Date, the Co-Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to the Agent, for its own account, the agency fees set forth in the Fee Letter, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, or such agency fees as may otherwise be separately agreed upon by the Co-Borrowers and the Agent payable in the amounts and at the times specified therein or as so otherwise agreed upon.

(c) From and after the Closing Date, the Co-Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay (i) in respect of the Letters of Credit issued, to each Lender, through the Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated as provided herein (each, an “L/C Fee Payment Date”) a fee (each, an “L/C Participation Fee”) calculated on such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the daily aggregate L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements that are earning interim interest pursuant to Section 2.23(h)) during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Closing Date or ending with the Revolving Credit Termination Date) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate on LIBOR Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.11, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank with respect to each outstanding Letter of Credit issued for the account of (or at the request of) the Co-Borrowers a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 1/8 of 1% per annum or such other rate as shall be separately agreed upon between the Co-Borrowers and the Issuing Bank, on the drawable amount of such Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date of such Letter of Credit, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of (or at the request of) the Borrower or processing of drawings thereunder (the fees in this clause (ii), collectively, the “Issuing Bank Fees”). All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

(d) All such fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that the Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the Issuing Bank. Once paid, none of such fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.11 Interest. (a) Subject to clause (c) below and to Section 2.24(d) if and to the extent applicable, the Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing, including each Swingline Loan, shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Subject to clause (c) below and to Section 2.24(d) if and to the extent applicable, the Loans comprising each LIBOR Rate Borrowing shall bear interest

82

at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Co-Borrowers hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.11 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.11.

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.11 shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than any prepayment of any ABR Loan or Swingline Loan), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBOR Rate or LIBOR Rate shall be determined by the Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.12 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBOR Rate Borrowing:

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

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

then the Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by facsimile or e-mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Agent notifies the

83

Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any request by the Borrower for a LIBOR Rate Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.05 shall be deemed to be a request of an ABR Borrowing and (ii) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a LIBOR Rate Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereof. Each determination by the Agent under this Section 2.12 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.13 Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or LIBOR Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of making or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to any Lender or the Issuing Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or purchasing or maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder in respect thereof (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, following delivery of the certificate contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section 2.13, the Co-Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, promptly upon demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit purchased by, such Lender or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with

84

respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time following delivery of the certificate contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section 2.13 the Co-Borrowers will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.13 and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts was determined shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Co-Borrowers shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.13 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.14 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBOR Rate Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (other than by reason of a default by a Lender), or (d) the assignment of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.17, then, in any such event, the Co-Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event (excluding any loss of the Applicable Margin on any Loan). In the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to be the amount determined by such Lender in a commercially reasonable manner to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar

85

deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender, the Agent or the Issuing Bank setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender, the Agent or the Issuing Bank is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.14 and the basis therefor and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts was determined shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Co-Borrowers shall pay such Lender, the Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.15 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if applicable law requires the deduction or withholding of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all such deductions or withholdings (including such deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) the Agent or Lender (as applicable) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the applicable Loan Party shall make or cause to be made such deductions or withholdings and (iii) the applicable Loan Party shall timely pay or cause to be paid the full amount so deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If at any time applicable law requires any deduction or withholding in respect of Taxes from any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the applicable Loan Party shall promptly notify or cause to be notified the relevant Lender or Agent upon becoming aware of the same. In addition, each Lender or Agent shall promptly notify a Loan Party upon becoming aware of any circumstances as a result of which a Loan Party is or would be required to make any deduction or withholding in respect of Taxes from any sum payable hereunder.

(b) In addition, the Loan Parties shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Each Loan Party shall indemnify the Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.15) and any penalties, interest and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Loan Party shall deliver

86

to the 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 the Agent.

(e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which any Co-Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In particular, on or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the Closing Date, each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) two duly signed, properly completed copies of either IRS Form W-8BEN or any successor thereto (relating to such Foreign Lender and entitling it to an exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax on all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Co-Borrowers or any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document) or IRS Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (relating to all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Co-Borrowers or any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document) or IRS Form W-8IMY (together with any necessary attachments) or any successor thereto or such other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent that such Foreign Lender is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax, including any exemption pursuant to Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, and in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming such an exemption under Section 881(c) of the Code, a certificate that establishes in writing to the Borrower and the Agent that such Foreign Lender is not (i) a “bank” as defined in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (ii) a 10-percent stockholder of any Co-Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or (iii) a controlled foreign corporation related to the Co-Borrowers within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code. Thereafter, upon the request of the Borrower and upon the expiration or obsolescence of any form previously delivered by such Foreign Lender, each such Foreign Lender shall (A) promptly submit to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) such additional duly completed and signed copies of one or more of such forms or certificates (or such successor forms or certificates as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent of any available exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Co-Borrowers or other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement, or any other Loan Document, in each case, (1) on or before the date that any such form, certificate or other evidence expires or becomes obsolete and (2) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form, certificate or evidence previously delivered by it to the Borrower, and (B) promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render

87

invalid any claimed exemption or reduction. Each Foreign Agent shall deliver to the Borrower two duly signed, properly completed copies of IRS Form W-81MY (together with any necessary attachments) or any successor thereto or such other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower that such Foreign Agent is acting as an intermediary with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

(f) Each Domestic Lender or Domestic Agent agrees to complete and deliver to the Borrower and the Agent a duly completed and executed copy of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or successor form certifying that such Person is not subject to United States backup withholding Tax.

(g) If the Agent or a Lender determines, in good faith in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which such Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay over such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined by the Agent or such Lender in good faith in its sole discretion, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that such Loan Party, upon the request of the Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Agent or such Lender in the event the Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the Agent or Lender be required to pay any amount to a Loan Party pursuant to this paragraph (g), to the extent the payment of which would place the Agent or Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 2.15(g) shall not be construed to require the Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to such Loan Party or any other Person.

(h) If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes for which additional amounts have been paid under this Section 2.15, the relevant Lender or Agent shall cooperate with the Borrower in challenging such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, at the Borrower’s expense, if so requested by the Borrower in writing.

(i) 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

88

deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the 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 paragraph (i), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.16 Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Unless otherwise specified, each Co-Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower by the Agent, except that (i) Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the Issuing Bank, (ii) principal of and interest on Swingline Loans shall be paid directly to the Swingline Lender, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.22(e) and (iii) payments pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it, except as otherwise provided, for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Agent to make such payment.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, all payments and any other amounts received by the Agent from or for the benefit of the Co-Borrowers shall be applied as follows: first, to pay principal of, and interest on, any portion of the Loans the Agent may have advanced pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement on behalf of any Lender, for which the Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Loan Parties; second, to pay fees and expenses of the Agent then due and payable; third, all other Obligations then due and payable; and fourth, as the Company so designates. All such payments shall be allocated ratably among such of the Agent, Lenders and Issuing Lenders as are entitled thereto; provided, however, that all such payments received (i) in respect of any Swingline Loans shall be distributed to the

89

Swingline Lender and (ii) in respect of any L/C Reimbursement Obligations to the applicable Issuing Bank.

(c) The Co-Borrowers hereby irrevocably waive the right to direct the application of any and all payments in respect of the Obligations (including all funds deposited in the Cash Concentration Account, any other Approved Deposit Account or any Cash Collateral Account) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and agree that, notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 2.09(c) and 2.16(b), all proceeds of Collateral received by the Agent after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and all or any portion of the Loans shall have been accelerated hereunder pursuant to Article VII, shall upon election by the Agent or at the direction of the Required Lenders be applied, first, to pay interest on and then principal of any portion of any Loans that the Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank for which the Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Loan Parties, second, to, ratably, pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the Agent from the Co-Borrowers (other than in connection with Hedging Obligations), third, ratably, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Co-Borrowers (other than in connection with Hedging Obligations), fourth, to pay interest due and payable in respect of the Loans, ratably, fifth, to, ratably, pay or prepay principal on the Loans, to provide Cash Collateral for unreimbursed L/C Exposure in accordance with Section 2.23(j) and to pay Pari Passu Qualified Secured Obligations then due, sixth, to the payment of any Last-Out Qualified Secured Obligations then due, ratably, seventh to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Agent or any Lender by the Co-Borrowers and eighth, to the Co-Borrowers or as the Borrower shall direct;

provided, however, that if sufficient funds are not available to fund all payments to be made in respect of any of the Secured Obligations set forth in any of clauses first through seventh above, the available funds being applied with respect to any such Secured Obligation (unless otherwise specified in such clause) shall be allocated to the payment of such Secured Obligations ratably, based on the proportion of the Agent’s and each Lender’s interest in the aggregate outstanding Secured Obligations described in such clauses; provided, further, that payments that would otherwise be allocated to the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be allocated first to repay Protective Advances and Swingline Loans until paid in full and then to repay the Revolving Loans.

(d) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or L/C Disbursement resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursement and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and L/C Exposures of other Lenders at such time outstanding to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of

90

and accrued interest on their respective Loans and L/C Exposure; 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 (c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Co-Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to any Co-Borrower or any subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall apply); provided, further, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender exercises any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.26(a) and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Co-Borrower 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 any Co-Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of any Co-Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(e) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Agent for the account of the Lenders that the Co-Borrowers will not make such payment, the Agent may assume that the Co-Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Co-Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(f) At the option of the Agent, principal on the Swingline Loans, L/C Reimbursement Obligations, interest, fees, expenses and other sums due and payable in respect of the Revolving Loans and Protective Advances may be paid from the proceeds of Swingline Loans or Revolving Loans. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Swingline Lender to make such Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.22 and the Revolving Credit Lenders to make such Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.03 from time to time in the amounts of any and all principal due and payable with respect to the Swingline Loans, L/C Reimbursement Obligations that have not been reimbursed at such time, interest, fees, expenses and other sums payable in respect of the Revolving Loans and Protective Advances, and further authorizes the Agent to give the Lenders notice of any Borrowing

91

with respect to such Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans and to distribute the proceeds of such Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans to pay such amounts. The Borrower agrees that all such Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans so made shall be deemed to have been requested by it (irrespective of the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 4.01, which conditions the Lenders irrevocably waive) and directs that all proceeds thereof shall be used to pay such amounts.

SECTION 2.17 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender or Issuing Bank requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if the Co-Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.15, as applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender or the Issuing Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect. The Co-Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the Issuing Bank in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If (w) any Lender or the Issuing Bank requests compensation under Section 2.13, or (x) the Co-Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.15, or (y) any Lender is affected in the manner described in Section 2.18 and as a result thereof any of the actions described in such Section is required to be taken, or (z) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender or the Issuing Bank and the Agent, replace such Lender or the Issuing Bank by requiring such Lender or the Issuing Bank to assign and delegate (and such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall be obligated to assign and delegate), without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans or L/C Disbursements, respectively, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Co-Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender or the Issuing Bank shall not be required

92

to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or Issuing Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Co-Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each Lender agrees that in the event it is required to make such an assignment in accordance herewith, such Lender shall promptly execute and deliver all agreements and documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment as set forth in Section 9.04, and in furtherance thereof hereby expressly authorizes the Agent and the Borrower to execute and deliver such agreement and documentation on behalf of such Lender and any such agreement and/or documentation so executed by the Agent or the Borrower, as the case may be, shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 9.04; provided that neither the Agent nor the Borrower shall be obligated to so execute and deliver such documentation on behalf of such Lender.

SECTION 2.18 Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted after the Closing Date that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable lending office to make or maintain any LIBOR Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Co-Borrowers through the Agent, any obligations of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR Rate Loans or to convert ABR Borrowings to LIBOR Rate Borrowings shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Agent and the Co-Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), either convert all LIBOR Rate Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Co-Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the determination of such Lender, otherwise be disadvantageous to it.

SECTION 2.19 [Intentionally Omitted].

SECTION 2.20 [Intentionally Omitted].

SECTION 2.21 Pro Rata Treatment. Except as provided below in this Section 2.21 with respect to Swingline Loans and as required or permitted under this Agreement, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of the Commitment Fees, each reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding applicable Loans). For purposes of determining the available Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at any time, each outstanding Swingline Loan shall be deemed to have utilized the Revolving Credit

93

Commitments of the Lenders (including those Lenders which shall not have made Swingline Loans) pro rata in accordance with such respective Revolving Credit Commitments. Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount.

SECTION 2.22 Swingline Loans. (a) Swingline Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth herein, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, make loans to one or more Co-Borrowers, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Termination Date and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with the terms hereof (or such later date to which the Swingline Lender agrees in writing), in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans exceeding $10,000,000 (or such larger amount, not in excess of the Total Revolving Credit Commitments then in existence, to which the Swingline Lender agrees in writing) in the aggregate or (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, after giving effect to any Swingline Loan, exceeding the Maximum Availability. Each Swingline Loan shall be in integral multiples of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000. The Swingline Commitment may be terminated or reduced from time to time as provided herein. Within the foregoing limits, the Co-Borrowers may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein. The Swingline Lender shall not make any Swingline Loan in the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives written notice from the Agent or any Revolving Credit Lender that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 4.01 shall not on such date be satisfied, and ending when such conditions are satisfied. The Swingline Lender shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.01 have been satisfied in connection with the making of any Swingline Loan.

(b) Swingline Loans. The Borrower (on behalf of the applicable Co-Borrower) shall notify the Swingline Lender by fax, or by e-mail, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan to be made to such Co-Borrower. Such notice shall be delivered on a Business Day, shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), the Co-Borrower(s) for whose benefit the Swingline Loan is to be made and amount of such Swingline Loan. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the applicable Co-Borrower by means of a credit to the account or accounts specified in the notice of Borrowing by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date such Swingline Loan is so requested.

(c) Prepayment. The Co-Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written or fax notice or e-mail notice to the Swingline Lender before 12:00 (noon), New York

94

City time, on the date of prepayment at the Swingline Lender’s address for notices specified in the Administrative Questionnaire delivered by the Swingline Lender.

(d) Refunded Swingline Loans. The Swingline Lender, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, (i) may at any time or (ii) shall, on the last Business Day of any calendar week, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf) request each Revolving Credit Lender to make a Revolving Loan (as an ABR Loan) in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the amount of the Swingline Loans (the “Refunded Swingline Loans”) outstanding on the date such notice is given. Unless any of the events described in paragraphs (f) or (g) of Section 7.01 shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of paragraph (e) of this Section 2.22 shall apply) each Revolving Credit Lender shall make the proceeds of its Revolving Loan available to the Swingline Lender for its own account at the office specified for the Swingline Lender in Section 9.01 prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, in funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date such notice is given. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the Refunded Swingline Loans. To the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make such payment to the Swingline Lender, on demand, the Borrower shall substantially concurrently repay such Revolving Credit Lender’s ratable share of such Refunded Swingline Loan.

(e) Participations. If, prior to the making of a Revolving Loan pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section 2.22, one of the events described in paragraphs (f) or (g) of Section 7.01 shall have occurred, each Revolving Credit Lender will, on the date such Revolving Loan was to have been made, purchase an undivided participating interest in the Refunded Swingline Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Percentage of such Refunded Swingline Loan. In addition, the Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Revolving Credit Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Credit Lenders will participate. The Agent will, promptly upon receipt of such notice, give notice to each Revolving Credit Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph (e) is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph (e) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.04(a) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.04(a) shall apply,

95

mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders under this Section 2.22) and the Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph (e) and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from any Co-Borrower (or other party on behalf of such Co-Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Agent; any such amounts received by the Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph (e) and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph (e) shall not relieve the Co-Borrowers (or other party liable for obligations of the Co-Borrowers) of any default in the payment thereof.

(f) Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Revolving Credit Lender’s participating interest in a Refunded Swingline Loan pursuant to paragraph (e) above, the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its participating interest in such amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded) in like funds as received; provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swingline Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swingline Lender to it in like funds as such payment is required to be returned by the Swingline Lender.

(g) Interest. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan and, subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(c), shall bear interest as provided in Section 2.11(a). Interest shall be due and payable on the applicable dates as specified in the definition of “Interest Payment Date”.

SECTION 2.23 Letters of Credit. (a) General. Upon the request of the Borrower, any letter of credit previously issued for the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party by a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender that is outstanding on the Closing Date, shall be deemed to be a Letter of Credit issued hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and for purposes hereof will be deemed to have been issued on the Closing Date. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may request the issuance of, and upon such request and satisfaction of such terms and conditions the Issuing Bank shall issue, a Letter of Credit at any time and from time to time while the Revolving Credit Commitments remain in effect prior to a date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date (or such later date to which the Issuing Bank agrees in writing) for the Borrower’s account or for the account of any other Loan Party (in which case the Borrower and such other Loan Party

96

shall be co-applicants with respect to such Letter of Credit), in a form reasonably acceptable to the Agent and the Issuing Bank. This Section 2.23 shall not be construed to impose an obligation upon the Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. In order to request the issuance (other than a deemed issuance pursuant to Section 2.23(a)) of a Letter of Credit (or to amend, renew or extend an existing Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the Issuing Bank and the Agent (no less than three Business Days (or such shorter period of time acceptable to the Issuing Bank) in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) below), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if, and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the L/C Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate L/C Commitments in effect at such time and (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Maximum Availability.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, unless such Letter of Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date; provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of 12 months or less (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date).

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each such Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Co-Borrowers (or, if applicable, another party pursuant to its obligations under any other Loan Document) forthwith on the date due as provided in Section 2.02(d). Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph (d) in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute

97

and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Co-Borrowers shall pay to the Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the Business Day on which the Borrower shall have received notice from the Issuing Bank that payment of such draft is being made; provided that the Borrower may request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.22 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount, in which case the Co-Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan.

(f) Obligations Absolute.    The Co-Borrowers’ obligations to reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, and irrespective of:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein;

(ii) any amendment or waiver of, or any consent to departure from, all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;

(iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Co-Borrowers, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, the Co-Borrowers, any subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank, the Agent or any Lender or any other person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

(iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(v) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and

(vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Issuing Bank, any Lender, the Agent or any other person or any other event or

98

circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.23, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Co-Borrowers’ obligations hereunder.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of the Co-Borrowers hereunder to reimburse L/C Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank. However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Co-Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Co-Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by any Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment) in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof; it is understood that the Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit (i) the Issuing Bank’s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and (ii) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuing Bank.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic notification, confirmed by fax, to the Agent and the Borrower of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve any Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the applicable Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement. The Agent shall promptly give each Revolving Credit Lender notice thereof.

(h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, then, unless the Co-Borrowers shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on such date, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of the Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment by

99

the Co-Borrowers or the date on which interest shall commence to accrue thereon as provided in Section 2.02(d), at the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount were an ABR Revolving Loan.

(i) Resignation or Removal of the Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to the Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower or may be removed by the Borrower at any time by notice to such Issuing Bank, the Agent and the Lenders. Subject to the next succeeding paragraph, upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender that shall agree to serve as successor Issuing Bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank and the retiring Issuing Bank shall be discharged from its obligations to issue additional Letters of Credit hereunder. At the time such removal or resignation shall become effective, the Co-Borrowers shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(ii). The acceptance of any appointment as the Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Co-Borrowers and the Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or removal of the Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Co-Borrowers shall, on the Business Day the Borrower receives notice from the Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Credit Lenders representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure) thereof and of the amount to be deposited, deposit in a Cash Collateral Account with the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 102% of the undrawn L/C Exposure as of such date. Such deposit shall be held by the Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Co-Borrowers under this Agreement. The Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits in Permitted Investments, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Co-Borrowers for the L/C Exposure at such time and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has

100

been accelerated (but subject to the consent of the Revolving Credit Lenders representing greater than 50% of the total L/C Exposure), be applied to satisfy the other Secured Obligations. If the Co-Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Co-Borrowers within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(k) Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of the Agreement, including, without limitation, the issuer of Letters of Credit referred to in the first sentence of Section 2.23(a). Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph (k) shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Bank and such Lender.

(l) Existing Letters of Credit. On the Closing Date, (i) the Existing Letters of Credit, to the extent outstanding, shall be automatically and without further action by the parties thereto converted to Letters of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.23 for the account of such Co-Borrower and subject to the provisions hereof, and for this purpose the fees specified in Section 2.10(c) shall be payable (in substitution for any fees set forth in the applicable letter of credit reimbursement agreements or applications relating to such letters of credit) as if such letters of credit had been issued on the Closing Date, (ii) the Existing Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” hereunder solely for the purpose of maintaining such letters of credit, (iii) the Existing Letters of Credit shall be included in the calculation of L/C Exposure and (iv) all liabilities of Co-Borrowers with respect to the Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral. No letter of credit converted in accordance with this clause (l) shall be amended, extended or renewed without the prior written consent of the Agent and the Existing Letter of Credit Issuer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Existing Letter of Credit Issuer shall not be required to issue any Letters of Credit hereunder, and in its capacity as Issuing Bank shall have no obligations with respect to any Letters of Credit other than the Existing Letters of Credit.

SECTION 2.24 Incremental Facility. (a) The Borrower may by written notice to the Agent, after the Closing Date, elect to request one or more increases (each, a “Facility Increase”) in the Revolving Credit Commitments (the “Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments”) in a principal amount not to exceed $45,000,000 in the aggregate for all such Facility Increases; provided, however, that (i) no Facility Increase shall be requested later than one year prior to the Scheduled Termination Date and (ii) each Facility Increase shall be in an amount not less than $10,000,000.

The notice in respect of any such Facility Increase shall specify (A) the date (each, a “Facility Increase Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Incremental

101

Revolving Credit Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than five Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Agent (or such shorter period as the Agent may agree) and (B) the identity of each Lender or Affiliate or Approved Fund of a Lender or other Person that is consented to by the Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to whom the Borrower proposes any portion of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations; provided, that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment. Such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall become effective as of the applicable Facility Increase Effective Date; provided that (1) no Default shall exist on such Facility Increase Effective Date before or after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments; (2) the representations and warranties set forth in each Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects immediately prior to, and after giving effect to, such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (except (x) to the extent any such representation and warranty expressly relates to an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date and (y) to the extent any such representation and warranty is qualified as to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect”, in which case such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects); (3) the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Facility Increase Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the Borrower to the Agent and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.15(e); (4) the Co-Borrowers shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.14 in connection with any such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments; and (5) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by the Agent in connection with any such transaction.

Once any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments become effective as of their respective Facility Increase Effective Dates in accordance with this Section 2.24(a), extensions of credit may be made thereunder in accordance with the terms of the applicable Facility Increase Joinder Agreement without any additional conditions thereto; provided that, with respect to each such extension of credit, each of the conditions set forth in Sections 4.01(b) and (c) must be satisfied.

(b) On any Facility Increase Effective Date, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each of the Revolving Credit Lenders holding Revolving Loans shall assign to each of the Revolving Credit Lenders holding the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, and each of the latter shall purchase from each of the former, at the principal amount thereof, such interests in such Revolving Loans outstanding on such Facility Increase Effective Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans will be held by all Revolving Credit Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Credit Commitments after giving effect to the addition to the Revolving Credit

102

Commitments of the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) each Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Credit Commitment and each Loan made thereunder (an “Incremental Revolving Loan”) shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Loan and (iii) each new Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment and all matters relating thereto.

(c) The Agent shall notify Lenders promptly upon receipt of the Borrower’s notice of each Facility Increase Effective Date and in respect thereof (y) the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, and (z) the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders thereunder, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section 2.24.

(d) The terms and provisions of the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments and Incremental Revolving Loans shall be identical to those applicable to the Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time (provided that the Co-Borrowers may agree to higher interest rate margins, L/C Participation Fees and Commitment Fees with such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments if, and to the extent that, the interest rate margins, L/C Participation Fees and Commitment Fees for all Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time are also increased such that the same interest rate margins, L/C Participation Fees and Commitment Fees apply with respect to all Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, further, that nothing in this clause (d) shall prevent the payment of customary upfront fees and arrangement fees to the Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments.

SECTION 2.25 Joint and Several Liability of Co-Borrowers. Each of (i) the Borrower, by signing this Agreement, and (ii) each Subsidiary Co-Borrower, from and after the date on which such Subsidiary Co-Borrower executes and delivers a Joinder Agreement in accordance with Section 2.25(m), hereby agrees as follows:

(a) Each Co-Borrower is accepting joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Secured Parties under the Loan Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each Co-Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Co-Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations.

(b) Each Co-Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Co-Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 2.25), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each Co-Borrower without preferences or distinction among them. For the avoidance of doubt and in furtherance of the foregoing, in the event that any Co-Borrower is released from its Obligations hereunder for any reason (including in connection with a sale of the Capital Stock or all or substantially all of the assets of such Co-Borrower accompanied by a release of such Person of its obligations

103

as Loan Guarantor pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in circumstances permitted by and in accordance with the terms thereof and hereof), each of the other Co-Borrowers shall be liable as principal for the full amount of such Obligations.

(c) If and to the extent that any Co-Borrower shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event the other Persons composing Co-Borrowers will make, without duplication, payment of any unpaid amount with respect to, or perform, such Obligation.

(d) The Obligations of each Co-Borrower under the provisions of this Section 2.25 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each Co-Borrower enforceable against each such Co-Borrower to the full extent of its properties and assets, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other circumstances whatsoever.

(e) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, each Co-Borrower hereby waives notice of acceptance of its joint and several liability, notice of any Loans or the Letter of Credit issued under or pursuant to this Agreement, notice of the occurrence of any Default, Event of Default, or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice of any action at any time taken or omitted by any Secured Party under or in respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all demands, notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents). Each Co-Borrower hereby assents to, and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by any Secured Party at any time or times in respect of any default by any Co-Borrower in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by any Secured Party in respect of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of the Obligations of any other Person or the addition, substitution or release, in whole or in part, of any Co-Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Co-Borrower assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part any Secured Party with respect to the failure by any Co-Borrower to comply with any of its respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.25 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or relieving any Co-Borrower, in whole or in part, from any of its Obligations under this Section 2.25, it being the intention of each Co-Borrower that, so long as any of the Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied except as otherwise provided hereunder,

104

the Obligations of such Co-Borrower under this Section 2.25 shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to the extent of such performance. The Obligations of each Co-Borrower under this Section 2.25 shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding with respect to any other Co-Borrower or Secured Party. The joint and several liability of the Co-Borrowers hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name, constitution or place of formation of any of the Co-Borrowers or Secured Parties.

(f) Each Co-Borrower represents and warrants to the Secured Parties that such Co-Borrower is currently informed of the financial condition of the other Co-Borrowers and of all other circumstances that a diligent inquiry would reveal and that bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Each Co-Borrower further represents and warrants to the Secured Parties that such Co-Borrower has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Each Co-Borrower hereby assumes all responsibility for keeping itself informed of the other Co-Borrowers’ financial condition, the financial condition of other guarantors, if any, and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations.

(g) Each Co-Borrower agrees that if any certificate is executed and delivered by any one or more of the Co-Borrowers, but not one or more of the other Co-Borrowers, such certificate may be relied upon by the Secured Parties, and shall bind all of the Co-Borrowers, as if it were executed by all of them. Any representation herein made “to Co-Borrowers’ knowledge” or the like, means to the knowledge of any, but not necessarily all, of the Co-Borrowers.

(h) The provisions of this Section 2.25 are made for the benefit of the Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against any or all of the Co-Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of any such Secured Party, successor or assign first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any of the other Co-Borrowers or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any of the other Co-Borrowers or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 2.25 shall remain in effect until the Obligations are paid in full. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the Co-Borrowers, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 2.25 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

(i) Each Co-Borrower hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against the other Co-Borrowers with respect to any

105

liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to the Secured Parties with respect to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until the Obligations are paid in full. Any claim that any Co-Borrower may have against any other Co-Borrower with respect to any payments to any Secured Party under any Loan Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Co-Borrower, its debts or its assets, whether voluntary or involuntary, this Agreement shall have terminated before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any other Co-Borrower therefor.

(j) Each Co-Borrower hereby agrees that, after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, the payment of any amounts due with respect to the indebtedness owing by any Co-Borrower to any other Co-Borrower is hereby subordinated to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations. Each Co-Borrower hereby agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, such Co-Borrower will not demand, xxx for or otherwise attempt to collect any indebtedness of any other Co-Borrower owing to such Co-Borrower until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If, notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, such Co-Borrower shall collect, enforce or receive any amounts in respect of such indebtedness, such amounts shall be collected, enforced and received by such Co-Borrower as trustee for the Secured Parties, and such Co-Borrower shall deliver any such amounts to Agent for application to the Obligations if such Event of Default is continuing.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Section 2.25, it is the intent of the parties hereto that the liability incurred by each Co-Borrower in respect of the Obligations of the other Co-Borrowers (and any Lien granted by each Co-Borrower to secure such Obligations), not constitute a fraudulent conveyance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the provisions of any applicable law of any state or other governmental unit (“Fraudulent Conveyance”). Consequently, each Co-Borrower, Agent and each Lender hereby agrees that if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the incurrence of liability by any Co-Borrower in respect of the Obligations of any other Co-Borrower (or any Liens granted by such Co-Borrower to secure such Obligations) would, but for the application of this sentence, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, such liability (and such Liens) shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause the same to constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, and this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall automatically be deemed to have been amended accordingly.

(l) Each Co-Borrower hereby designates the Borrower as its representative and agent on its behalf for the purpose of issuing Borrowing Requests

106

and Interest Election Requests, giving instructions with respect to the disbursements of the proceeds of the Loans, requesting Letters of Credit, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) on behalf of the Borrower or the Co-Borrowers under the Loan Documents. Borrower hereby accepts such appointment. The Agent and each Lender may regard any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document from the Borrower as a notice or communication from all of the Co-Borrowers. Each warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on a Co-Borrower’s behalf by the Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Co-Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Co-Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Co-Borrower. The Borrower shall maintain a written record of the allocation of all proceeds of Loans between the Co-Borrowers and shall disclose such record to the Agent upon its request.

(m) Additional Co-Borrowers. With respect to any Restricted Subsidiary that desires to become a Co-Borrower on or after the Closing Date (which may include Subsidiaries created or acquired after the Closing Date and existing Subsidiaries that become Subsidiary Co-Borrowers on or after the Closing Date), the Borrower shall cause the applicable Restricted Subsidiary to (i) become a Subsidiary Guarantor and take such other actions as are required pursuant to Section 5.11 with respect to such Subsidiary Guarantor to the extent not previously taken and (ii) execute and deliver to the Agent a Joinder Agreement in substantially the form set forth as Exhibit D hereto (the “Joinder Agreement”), pursuant to which such Subsidiary Guarantor shall become a Co-Borrower hereunder. Upon execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically become a Co-Borrower hereunder and thereupon shall have all of the rights, benefits, duties, and obligations in such capacity under the Loan Documents.

SECTION 2.26 Defaulting Lender.

(a) Reallocation of Defaulting Lender Commitment, Etc.     If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply with respect to any outstanding L/C Exposure and any outstanding Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender:

(i) the L/C Exposure and the Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender will, subject to the limitation in the first proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (A) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s total Revolving Credit Exposure, total Swingline Exposure and total L/C Exposure may not in any event exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation and (B) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release

107

of any claim any Co-Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender;

(ii) to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of the Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure and Swingline Exposure cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of the first proviso in clause (i) above or otherwise, the Borrower will, not later than ten (10) Business Days after demand by the Agent (at the direction of the Issuing Bank and/or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be), (A) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Co-Borrowers to the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender in respect of such L/C Exposure or Swingline Exposure, as the case may be, in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of such L/C Exposure or Swingline Exposure, or (B) in the case of such Swingline Exposure, prepay (subject to clause (iii) below) and/or Cash Collateralize in full the unreallocated portion thereof, or (C) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Agent, and to the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender; and

(iii) any amount paid by the Co-Borrowers or otherwise received by the Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be retained by the Agent in a segregated non-interest bearing account until (subject to Section 2.26(d)) the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Co-Borrowers hereunder and will be applied by the Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: first to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender (pro rata as to the respective amounts owing to each of them) under this Agreement, third to the payment of post-default interest and then current interest due and payable to the Lenders hereunder other than Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them, fourth to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fifth to pay principal and unreimbursed L/C Disbursements then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable to them, sixth to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders, and seventh after the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Co-Borrowers hereunder, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

108

(b) Right to Give Drawdown Notices. In furtherance of the foregoing, if any Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender or a Potential Defaulting Lender, each of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender is hereby authorized by the Co-Borrowers (which authorization is irrevocable and coupled with an interest) to give, in its discretion, through the Agent, Borrowing Requests pursuant to Section 2.03 in such amounts and in such times as may be required to (i) reimburse an outstanding L/C Disbursement, (ii) repay an outstanding Swingline Loan, and/or (iii) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Co-Borrowers in respect of outstanding Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans in an amount not to exceed the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan.

(c) Termination of Defaulting Lender Commitment. The Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.26(a)(iii) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Co-Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts), provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim any Co-Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

(d) Cure. If the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender agree in writing in their discretion that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender or a Potential Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any amounts then held in the segregated account referred to in Section 2.26(a)), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par such portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders and/or make such other adjustments as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Credit Exposure, L/C Exposure and Swingline Exposure of the Lenders to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Commitments, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender (and such Exposure of each Lender will automatically be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing); provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such 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 or Potential Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender.

(e) Cash Collateral Call.    If any Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender or a Potential Defaulting Lender, if any Letter of

109

Credit or Swingline Loan is at the time outstanding, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, may (except, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, to the extent the Commitments have been fully reallocated pursuant to Section 2.26(a)), by notice to the Borrower and such Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender through the Agent, require the Borrower, not later than one (1) Business Day after demand by the Agent, to Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Co-Borrowers to the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan in amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender or such Potential Defaulting Lender to be applied pro rata in respect thereof, or to make other arrangements satisfactory to the Agent, and to the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender.

(f) Fees. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(c) (without prejudice to the rights of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees); provided that (a) to the extent that all or a portion of the L/C Exposure or the Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.26(a), such fees that would have accrued for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments, and (b) to the extent that all or any portion of such L/C Exposure or Swingline Exposure cannot be so reallocated, such fees will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as applicable (and the pro rata payment provisions of Section 2.21 will automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section 2.26(f)).

ARTICLE III Representations and Warranties

On the Closing Date and on the date of each other Credit Event, each Loan Party represents and warrants to the Lenders that the following representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date with the same effect as though made on and as of such date (except (x) to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date and (y) to the extent any such representation and warranty is qualified as to “materiality” or “Material Adverse Effect”, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects):

SECTION 3.01 Organization; Powers. Each of the Loan Parties and each of its Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, except, in the case of any Subsidiary that is

110

not a Loan Party, where the failure to be in good standing would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (b) has all requisite power and authority to own its property and assets and to carry on its business as now conducted, except, in the case of any Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party, where the failure to have such power and authority would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and (c) is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except, where the failure to be in good standing as a foreign corporation or so qualified to do business would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.02 Authorization; Enforceability.

All such properties and assets are free and clear of Liens, except for defects in title permitted pursuant to the preceding sentence and other than Liens permitted by Section 6.02.

(f) Each of Holdings, the Borrower and each of the Restricted Subsidiaries has complied with all obligations under all leases to which it is a party, except where the failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and all such leases are in

full force and effect, except leases in respect of which the failure to be in full force and effect would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. Each of Holdings, the Borrower and each of the Restricted Subsidiaries enjoys peaceful and undisturbed possession under all such leases under which it is the tenant, other than leases in respect of which the failure to enjoy peaceful and undisturbed possession would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(i) Each of Holdings, the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries owns or is validly licensed to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the present conduct of its business, except where such failure to own or hold pursuant to a valid license would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect (the “Material Intellectual Property”). To the Borrower’s knowledge, the use of any Intellectual Property in the conduct of their respective businesses does not infringe, misappropriate, dilute or otherwise violate any rights of any third party in any material respect. No claim is pending or has been threatened in writing that the use of the Material Intellectual Property by any of the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries infringes, misappropriates, dilutes or otherwise violates the rights of any third party.

SECTION 3.06 Litigation and Environmental Matters. (f) There are no actions, suits or proceedings by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened against or affecting the Loan Parties or any of their Subsidiaries (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, would reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) that involve any Loan Documents or the Transactions.

No Loan Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is in violation of the terms of any such franchise, license, lease, permit, certificate, authorization, qualification, easement, right of way, right or approval, except where any such violation, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.08 Investment Company Status. No Loan Party is an “investment company” as defined in, and that is required to be registered under, the Investment Company Act of 1940.

SECTION 3.09 Taxes. Each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be filed all federal and state Tax returns and all other material Tax returns and reports required to have been filed and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes that are due and payable and required to have been paid by it (whether or not shown on any Tax return), except (a) Taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which such Loan Party or such Subsidiary, as applicable, has set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP or (b) to the extent that the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the present value of all accumulated benefit obligations under all Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of FASB ASC Topic 715) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of such Plans.

(a) (i) the fair value of the assets of the Loan Parties on a consolidated basis, at a fair valuation, will exceed the debts and liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, of the Loan Parties on a consolidated basis; (ii) the present fair saleable value of the property of the Loan Parties on a consolidated basis will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of the Loan Parties on a consolidated basis, on their debts and other liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured; (iii) the Loan Parties on a consolidated basis will be able to pay their debts and liabilities, direct, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured; and (iv) the Loan Parties on a consolidated basis will not have unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the businesses in which they are engaged as such businesses are now conducted and are proposed to be conducted following the Closing Date.

(b) The Loan Parties do not intend to incur debts beyond their ability to pay such debts as they mature, taking into account the timing and amounts of cash to be received by the Loan Parties and the timing and amounts of cash to be payable by the Loan Parties on or in respect of their Indebtedness.

115

The Borrower delivered a schedule to the Agent on the Closing Date that set forth a true, complete and correct description of all property and casualty and commercial general liability insurance maintained by or on behalf of the Loan Parties and the Restricted Subsidiaries that are Domestic Subsidiaries as of the Closing Date.

All of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of the Subsidiaries owned by any Loan Party have been (to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such ownership interests) duly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable free and clear of all Liens (other than Liens created under the Loan Documents and the Permitted Liens).

SECTION 3.16 Security Interest in Collateral. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will create legal and valid Liens on all the Collateral in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the Agent and the Lenders; and upon the proper filing of UCC financing statements and other filings required pursuant to paragraph (l) of Section 4.02 and any Mortgages with respect to Mortgaged Properties, such Liens will constitute perfected and continuing Liens on the Collateral, securing the Secured Obligations, enforceable against the applicable Loan Party and all third parties, and having priority over all other Liens on the Collateral except in the case of (a) Permitted Liens, to the extent any such Permitted Liens would have priority over the Liens in favor of the Agent pursuant to any applicable law, or as otherwise permitted by this Agreement and (b) Liens perfected only by possession or control (including possession of any certificate of title) to the extent the Agent has not obtained or does not maintain possession or control of such Collateral.

116

would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to a right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is bound.

SECTION 3.18 Federal Reserve Regulations. (a) On the Closing Date, none of the Collateral is Margin Stock.

(f) Subject to the limitations set forth or referred to in this Section 5.11, if any material assets (including any real property or improvements thereto or any interest therein) are acquired by Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary that is a Loan Party after the Closing Date (other than assets constituting Collateral under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement that become subject to the Lien in favor of the Agent upon acquisition thereof), the Borrower will (if such assets were acquired outside the ordinary course of business) notify the Agent thereof, and, if requested by the Agent, the Borrower will cause such assets to be subjected to a Lien securing the Secured Obligations and will take, and cause Holdings and the Loan Parties that are Subsidiaries to take, such actions as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the Agent to grant and perfect such Liens, including actions described in paragraph (c) of this Section 5.11, all at the expense of the Loan Parties.

130

after the date by which financial statements for such quarter are required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement, cause one or more such Restricted Subsidiaries to become additional Loan Parties (notwithstanding that such Restricted Subsidiaries are, individually, Immaterial Subsidiaries) such that the foregoing condition ceases to be true.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.11, real property required to be mortgaged under this Section 5.11 shall be limited to real property located in the U.S. owned in fee by a Loan Party having a fair market value at the time of the acquisition thereof of $3,000,000 or more (provided that the cost of perfecting such Lien is not unreasonable in relation to the benefits to the Lenders of the security afforded thereby in the Agent’s reasonable judgment after consultation with the Borrower).

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Loan Parties shall not be required to include as Collateral any Excluded Assets (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement).

131

Certificates shall include information as to rebates, deferred revenue and unapplied cash that will be updated in accordance with the schedule set forth in clause (i) above.

At any time and from time to time, upon the Agent’s request and at the expense of the Borrower, the Borrower shall cause independent public accountants or others reasonably satisfactory to the Agent to furnish to the Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Accounts; provided, however, that unless a Reporting Trigger Period has commenced, the Agent shall request no more than two such reports during any calendar year and; provided, further, that once a Reporting Trigger Period has commenced and is continuing, the Agent shall request no more than four such reports during any calendar year.

(u) a Change of Control shall have occurred;

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to any Loan Party described in clause (f) or (g) of this Section 7.01), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, either or both of the following actions may be taken, at the same or different times: (i) the Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower, terminate forthwith the Revolving Credit Commitments, the L/C Commitment and the Swingline Commitment and thereupon the Revolving Credit Commitments, the L/C Commitment and the Swingline Commitment shall terminate immediately and (ii) the Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower; provided that upon the occurrence of an event with respect to any Loan Party described in clause (f) or (g) of this Section 7.01, the Revolving Credit Commitments, the L/C Commitment and the Swingline Commitment shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower, without further action of the Agent or any Lender.

164

Documents (including Section 2.23(j) with respect to any L/C Exposure) or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the UCC.

SECTION 7.02 Right to Cure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.01, in the event that the Borrower would otherwise fail to comply with the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant, until the expiration of the tenth Business Day subsequent to the date the certificate calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(c), the Borrower shall have the right to issue Permitted Cure Securities (as defined below) for cash or otherwise receive cash contributions to the capital of the Borrower (the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by Borrower of such cash (the “Cure Amount”) pursuant to the exercise of such Cure Right, the Financial Performance Covenant shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma adjustments:

(r) EBITDA shall be increased, solely for the purpose of measuring the Financial Performance Covenant at the end of such fiscal quarter and applicable subsequent periods and not for any other purpose under this Agreement, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount; and

(s) if, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, the Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant, the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the Financial Performance Covenant as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of the Financial Performance Covenant that had occurred shall be deemed cured for purposes of this Agreement, except to the extent provided in the proviso at the end of Section 6.04(b).

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in each four fiscal quarter period there shall be at least two fiscal quarters with respect to which the Cure Right is not exercised, (ii) no more than four Cure Rights may be exercised during the term of this Agreement, (iii) for purposes of this Article VII, the Cure Amount shall be no greater than the amount required for purposes of complying with the Financial Performance Covenant and (iv) no Lender shall be required to make any Loans for the period commencing on the date an Event of Default has occurred, or would have occurred, under Section 7.01(d) without giving effect to this Section 7.02 and ending on the date that a Cure Right, if any, has been exercised pursuant to this Section 7.02.

As used in this Section 7.02, the term “Permitted Cure Securities” shall mean an equity security of the Borrower issued to Holdings having no mandatory redemption, repurchase, repayment or similar requirements prior to the six-month anniversary of the Scheduled Termination Date and upon which all dividends or distributions, at the election of the Borrower, may be payable in additional shares of such equity security. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any equity security that would fall outside the definition of “Permitted Cure Security” solely because the holders of such equity security have the right to require the Borrower to redeem such equity security upon the occurrence

165

of a change in control will constitute Permitted Cure Securities if the terms of such equity securities provide that the Borrower may only redeem such equity security if and to the extent that all Obligations (other than contingent expense and indemnification obligations for which no claim has been asserted) have been paid in full in cash (or, in the case of undrawn L/C Exposure, Cash Collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner satisfactory to the Issuing Bank) and the Revolving Credit Commitments have been terminated.

ARTICLE VIII The Agent

SECTION 8.01 Authorization and Action. (t) Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Agent as its agent and authorizes the Agent to take such actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, including the Intercreditor Agreement, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

(u) The bank serving as the 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 the Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Loan Parties or any subsidiary of a Loan Party or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Agent hereunder.

(v) The Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement); provided, however, that the Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Agent in good faith believes exposes it to personal liability unless the Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Banks with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or applicable Requirements of Law, including for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under the Bankruptcy Code or any other law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of the Bankruptcy Code or any other law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or relief of debtors, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or

166

any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 or elsewhere in this Agreement) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.

(w) The Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article VIII shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

(x) In the event that Citibank or any of its Affiliates shall be or become an indenture trustee under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (as amended, the “Trust Indenture Act”) in respect of any securities issued or guaranteed by any Loan Party, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that any payment or property received in satisfaction of or in respect of any Obligation of such Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or on behalf of Citibank in its capacity as the Agent for the benefit of any Lender Party under any Loan Document (other than Citibank or an Affiliate of Citibank) and which is applied in accordance with the Loan Documents shall be deemed to be exempt from the requirements of Section 311 of the Trust Indenture Act pursuant to Section 311(b)(3) of the Trust Indenture Act.

(y) The lead arranger and bookrunner shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such.

SECTION 8.02 Agent Reliance. The 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 believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Agent also may rely upon any

167

statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

SECTION 8.03 Successor Agent. (f) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided in this Section 8.03, each Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Borrower, to appoint a successor; provided that during the existence and continuance of an Event of Default no such consent of the Borrower shall be required. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank reasonably acceptable to the Borrower; provided that during the existence and continuance of an Event of Default no consent of the Borrower shall be required. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 acting as Agent. In addition, notwithstanding the effectiveness of a resignation by the Agent hereunder, (a) the retiring Agent may, in its sole discretion, continue to provide the services of the Agent solely with respect to administering, collecting and delivering any payments of principal, interest, fees, premium or other amounts in respect of the Loans and maintaining the books and records relating thereto (such Agent acting in such capacity, the “Paying Agent”), (b) the term “Agent” when used in connection with any such functions shall be deemed to mean such retiring Agent in its capacity as the Paying Agent and (c) such retiring Agent shall, in its capacity as the Paying Agent, continue to be vested with and enjoy all of the rights and benefits of an Agent hereunder. If no Lender has accepted appointment as a successor Agent within 30 days following a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Required Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the retiring Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

(g) Any resignation pursuant to this Section 8.03 by a Person acting as Agent shall, unless such Person shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders otherwise, also act to relieve such Person and its affiliates of any obligation to advance or issue

168

new, or extend existing, Swingline Loans or Letters of Credit where such advance, issuance or extension is to occur on or after the effective date of such resignation. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as the Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, (ii) the retiring Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, (iii) the successor Swingline Lender shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption and acquire from the retiring Swingline Lender each outstanding Swingline Loan of such retiring Swingline Lender for a purchase price equal to par plus accrued interest and (iv) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

(h)     In addition to the foregoing, if a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender or a Potential Defaulting Lender, unless 100% of the obligations of the Co-Borrowers to the Swingline Lender have been reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders, Cash Collateralized by the Borrower or a combination of the two, in each case to the satisfaction of the Swingline Lender, the Swingline Lender may, upon prior written notice to the Borrower and the Agent, resign as Swingline Lender, respectively, effective at the close of business New York time on a date specified in such notice (which date may not be less than 30 days after the date of such notice); provided that such resignation by the Swingline Lender will have no effect on its rights in respect of any outstanding Swingline Loans or on the obligations of the Borrower or any Lender under this Agreement with respect to any such outstanding Swingline Loan.

(i) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time the Required Lenders determine that the Person serving as Agent is (without taking into account any provision in the definition of “Defaulting Lender” requiring notice from the Agent or any other party) a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (e) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders (determined after giving effect to Section 9.02) may by notice to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Agent and appoint a replacement Agent hereunder. Such removal will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be effective on the earlier of (i) the date a replacement Agent is appointed and (ii) the date 30 days after the giving of such notice by the Requisite Lenders (regardless of whether a replacement Agent has been appointed)

SECTION 8.04 Posting of Approved Electronic Communications. (h) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and Holdings and the Co-Borrowers agree, and the Borrower shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to agree, that the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Approved Electronic Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks by posting such Approved Electronic Communications

169

on IntraLinks™ or a substantially similar electronic platform chosen by the Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

(i) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Agent from time to time (including, as of the Closing Date, a dual firewall and a User ID/Password Authorization System) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a single-user-per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, Holdings and the Co-Borrowers acknowledges and agrees, and the Borrower shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to acknowledge and agree, that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. In consideration for the convenience and other benefits afforded by such distribution and for the other consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, Holdings and the Co-Borrowers hereby approves, and the Borrower shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to approve, distribution of the Approved Electronic Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes, and the Borrower shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to understand and assume, the risks of such distribution.

(j) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NONE OF THE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES (THE “AGENT AFFILIATES”) WARRANT THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM EXCEPT ERRORS OR OMISSIONS RESULTING FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF ANY AGENT AFFILIATE. 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 THE AGENT AFFILIATES IN CONNECTION WITH THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

(k) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above (unless the Agent requests that the provisions of clause (a) and (b) above be followed) and any other provision in this Agreement or any other Loan Document providing for the delivery of, any Approved Electronic Communication by any other means, the Loan Parties shall

170

deliver all Approved Electronic Communications to the Administrative Agent by properly transmitting such Approved Electronic Communications in an electronic soft medium in a format reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent to xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx or such other electronic mail address (or similar means of electronic delivery) as the Administrative Agent may notify the Borrower. Nothing in this clause (d) shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Issuer to deliver any Approved Electronic Communication to any Loan Party in any manner authorized in this Agreement or to request that the Borrower effect delivery in such manner.

(l) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, Holdings and the Co-Borrowers agree, and the Borrower shall cause each Subsidiary Guarantor to agree, that the Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Approved Electronic Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Agent’s generally-applicable document retention procedures and policies.

SECTION 8.05 Lender Credit Decision; Withholding. (h) Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender 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 the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(i) To the extent required by any applicable law, the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

SECTION 8.06 Concerning the Collateral and the Security Documents. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that any action taken by the Agent or the Required Lenders (or, where required by the express terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Agent or the Required Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion of the Lenders) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and

171

binding upon all of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that any action taken by the Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Agent of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the other Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for the Lenders and the Issuing Banks with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Collateral and with the Collateral Documents, (ii) execute and deliver each Collateral Document and accept delivery of each such agreement delivered by Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) act as collateral agent for the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens created by such agreements and all other purposes stated therein; provided, however, that the Agent hereby appoints, authorizes and directs each Lender and each Issuing Bank to act as collateral sub-agent for the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties for purposes of the perfection of all security interests and Liens with respect to the Collateral, including any Deposit Accounts maintained by a Loan Party with, and cash and Cash Equivalents held by, the Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, (iv) manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the Collateral, (v) take such action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interests and Liens created or purported to be created by the Collateral Documents and (vi) except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof or of any other Loan Document, upon receipt of instructions from the Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable, pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement, exercise all remedies given to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral under the Loan Documents relating thereto, applicable law or otherwise.

All such notices and other communications (i) sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received or (ii) sent by facsimile shall be deemed to have been given when sent and when receipt has been confirmed by telephone, provided that if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient.

(k) Any party hereto may change its address or facsimile number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.

SECTION 9.02 Waivers; Amendments. (j) No failure or delay by the Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by this Section 9.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent permitted by law, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(k) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders, provided that the Borrower and the Agent (without the consent of any Lender) may enter into an amendment to effect the provisions of Section 2.24 upon the effectiveness of any Facility Increase Joinder Agreement or, (ii) in the case of any Loan Document (other than any such amendment to effectuate any modification thereto expressly contemplated by the terms of such Loan Documents), pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, with the consent of Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (A) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender; it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Article IV or the waiver of any Default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitute an increase of any Commitment of any Lender, (B) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or L/C Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any interest or fees payable hereunder,

174

without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (C) postpone any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or L/C Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the provisions of Section 2.11(c) providing for the default rate of interest, or to waive any obligations of the Borrower to pay interest at such default rate or to amend the provisions of Section 2.09, (D) change Section 2.16(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the manner in which payments are shared, without the written consent of each Lender, (E) change any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 or the definition of “Supermajority Lenders” or “Required Lenders”, or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, (F) release Holdings or all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their respective obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender, (G) except as provided in clauses (c) and (d) of this Section 9.02 or in any Collateral Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender or (H) amend, supplement or otherwise modify or waive any of the terms and provisions (and related definitions) related to the Borrowing Base, any provisions (including advance rates) relating to eligibility, including, without limitation, Eligible Receivables and Eligible Inventory if the effect of such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver would be to increase the amount available to be borrowed by the Co-Borrowers hereunder, without the consent of the Supermajority Lenders; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable. The Agent may also amend the Commitment Schedule to reflect Section 2.24 or assignments entered into pursuant to Section 9.04.

(l) The Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that Liens granted to the Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral shall be automatically released (without consent of any Lender or any party to any Secured Counterparty or any other Secured Party, except with respect to any Lender as expressly required by clause (F) or (G) of Section 9.02(b) or by clause (iv) or (vi) of this Section 9.02(c)) (i) upon the termination of the Commitments, payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations and Secured Hedging and Cash Management Obligations), and the cash collateralization or support by letters of credit of any Unliquidated Obligations included in any L/C Exposure in existence at such time in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank (or as the Issuing Bank may otherwise agree) and, with respect to all Hedging Obligations then included in Secured Hedging and Cash Management Obligations, either the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of such Obligations or the cash collateralization or support by letters of credit of such

175

Obligations in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Person to whom such Obligations are owed (or as such Person may otherwise agree), (ii) upon the sale or other disposition of the property constituting such Collateral (including as part of or in connection with any other sale or other disposition permitted hereunder) to any Person other than another Loan Party or a Subsidiary or an Affiliate of a Loan Party, to the extent such sale or other disposition is made in compliance with, or is not otherwise prohibited by, the terms of this Agreement (and the Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iii) to the extent such Collateral is comprised of property leased to a Loan Party, upon termination or expiration of such lease, (iv) subject to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, (v) to the extent the property constituting such Collateral is owned by any Loan Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, (vi) as required to effect any sale or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the Collateral Documents, (vii) to the extent such Collateral is comprised of property that is subject to a Lien permitted by clauses (b), (e), (h), (i), (k), (m), (r)(A), (r)(B), (s), (y), (z) or (bb)), or permitted by clause (q) (but only to the extent relating to the refinancing, refunding, extension, renewal or replacement of Liens permitted under any of the other clauses referred to in this clause (vii)), of the definition of “Permitted Liens”, if the holder of such Lien requires such release (provided, that shares of Capital Stock shall not be automatically released except in respect of Liens permitted by clauses (h), (p), (r)(A), (r)(B), (y) and (bb)) of the definition of “Permitted Liens” or permitted by clause (q) thereof (but only to the extent relating to Liens permitted under any of the other clauses of this proviso)) or (viii) as required under the Intercreditor Agreement. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, the Agent may, in its discretion, release the Lien on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $3,500,000 during each fiscal year without consent of any Lender. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral to the extent required under the provisions of the Loan Documents. At the request and expense of any Loan Party following any such release of Collateral, the Agent shall deliver to such Loan Party any such Collateral held by the Agent and execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as it shall reasonably request to evidence such release. The Agent and each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that any security interest held by the Agent in any property that is licensed or leased to any third party in compliance with this Agreement shall be subject to such license or lease, and each Lender hereby instructs the Agent to execute and deliver such instruments, documents and agreements as the Borrower may reasonably request in order to confirm the same if so requested by the applicable licensee or lessee.

176

(m) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.02, guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by, or with respect to the Capital Stock of, Foreign Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Agent and may be amended and waived with the consent of the Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lenders if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities or defects or (iii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(n) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender directly affected thereby”, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement; provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of clause (b) of Section 9.04, (ii) the replacement Lender shall pay the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)(iv), if applicable in accordance with the terms of such Section, (iii) the replacement Lender shall grant its consent with respect to the applicable proposed amendment, waiver or consent and (iv) the Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by the Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.13, 2.15 and 2.21, and (2) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 2.14 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender. Each Lender agrees that if the Agent or the Borrower, as the case may be, exercises its option hereunder, such Lender shall promptly execute and deliver all agreements and documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment as set forth in Section 9.04, and in furtherance thereof hereby expressly authorizes the Agent or the Borrower, as the case may be, to execute and deliver such agreement and documentation on behalf of such Non-Consenting Lender and any such agreement and/or documentation so executed by the Agent or the Borrower shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 9.04; provided that neither the Agent nor the Borrower shall be obligated to so execute and deliver such documentation on behalf of such Lender.

(o) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable

177

law, such Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments and waivers hereunder and the Revolving Credit Commitment and the outstanding Loans or other extensions of credit of such Lender hereunder will not be taken into account and will be deemed to be not outstanding in determining whether the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as required, have approved any such amendment or waiver (and the definition of “Required Lenders” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period); provided, that any such amendment or waiver that would increase or extend the term of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, extend the date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, reduce the principal amount of any obligation owing to such Defaulting Lender, reduce the amount of or the rate or amount of interest on any amount owing to such Defaulting Lender or of any fee payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.    (m) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Xxxxxxx & Xxxx LLP, counsel for the Agent, and a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, as counsel to the Agent, in connection with the syndication and distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet or through a service such as IntraLinks) of the credit facility provided for herein on the Closing Date, the preparation of the Loan Documents and related documentation, (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of outside legal counsel to the Agent (provided that the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay for more than one law firm retained by the Agent and Lenders as a single group in each relevant jurisdiction, except in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the party affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel), in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of any Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby shall be consummated), (iii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender or the Lenders, including the reasonable documented fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agent and the Lenders, in connection with the enforcement, collection or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 9.03, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or related negotiations in respect of such Loans, and (iv) subject to any other provisions of this Agreement, of the Loan Documents or of any separate agreement entered into by the Borrower and the Agent with respect thereto, all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent in the administration of the Loan Documents. Expenses reimbursable by the Borrower under this Section 9.03 include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to any

178

other applicable provision of any Loan Document, reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with:

(xxvii) lien and title searches and title insurance; and

(xxviii) taxes, fees and other charges for recording the Mortgages, filing financing statements and continuations, and other actions to perfect, protect, and continue the Agent’s Liens.

Other than to the extent required to be paid on the Closing Date, all amounts due under this paragraph (a) shall be payable, jointly and severally, by the Co-Borrowers within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of an invoice relating thereto and setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail.

(n) Each Co-Borrower shall indemnify the Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Arranger, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for any Indemnitee (provided that the Co-Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay for more than one law firm retained by the Indemnitees as a single group in each relevant jurisdiction with respect to the same claim or proceeding, except in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the party affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of the Loan Documents (including any Letter of Credit or any application, agreement or document entered into in connection thereto) or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any other Loan Party or to any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party against, or against a third party by, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its officers, directors and employees.

(o) To the extent that the Co-Borrowers fail to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.03, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such

179

unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, penalty, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Agent in its capacity as such.

(p) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party to this Agreement shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto or any Related Party thereof, 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, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(q) All amounts due under this Section 9.03 shall be paid promptly after written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.04 Successors and Assigns. (j) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of Holdings, the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Lenders that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

(k) Each Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, however, that (i) the Agent must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) each of the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and the Borrower must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required to any such assignment (A) during the continuance of any Event of Default or (B) to a Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of the Lender, (iii) the amount of the Commitment 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 Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 (or, if less, the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Commitment) and shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or the entire remaining amount of such Lender’s Commitment); provided that such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds (with simultaneous assignments to or by two or more Related Funds being treated as one assignment), (iv) the parties to each assignment (which shall not include the Borrower unless its consent to such assignment is required hereunder) shall (A) execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent (which initially shall be ClearPar, LLC) or (B) manually execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived by the Agent in its discretion); provided that only a single processing and recordation fee shall be payable in respect of multiple contemporaneous assignments to Approved Funds with respect to any Lender and (v) the assignee, if it

180

shall not be a Lender immediately prior to the assignment, shall deliver to the Agent (i) an Administrative Questionnaire and (ii) if applicable, an appropriate Internal Revenue Service form (such as Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or any successor form adopted by the relevant United States taxing authority) as required by applicable law supporting such assignee’s position that no withholding by any Borrower or the Agent for United States income tax payable by such assignee in respect of amounts received by it hereunder is required. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 9.04, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, provided, that no assignee (including an assignee that is already a Lender hereunder at the time of the assignment) shall be entitled to receive any greater amounts pursuant to Section 2.15 than that to which the assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive had no such assignment occurred, and (B) 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 or the remaining portion of an 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 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 with respect to the facts and circumstances occurring on or prior to the effective date of such assignment, as well as to any fees accrued for its account and not yet paid).

(l) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that its Revolving Credit Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its Revolving Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption, (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or the performance or observance by Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 3.04(a) or delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Agent, the Arranger, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such

181

documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender. No such assignment shall be made to any Permitted Holder, the Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of any Permitted Holder or the Borrower or any natural person.

(m) The Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York 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 Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(n) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, an Administrative Questionnaire and tax certifications required by Section 9.04(b)(v) completed in respect of the assignee (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder) and the written consent of the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Bank and the Agent and, if required, the Borrower to such assignment, the Agent shall promptly (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (e). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph (e) and paragraph (b) above 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 (f) of this Section 9.04.

(o) Each Lender may without the consent of the Borrower, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (each, a “Participant”) other than a natural person or a Permitted Holder, the Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans); provided, however, 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, (iii) the Participant shall be entitled to the benefit of the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 to the same extent as if they were Lenders (but, with respect to any

182

particular Participant, to no greater extent than the Lender that sold the participation to such Participant except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation) and (iv) the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to the Loans or L/C Disbursements and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Loan Documents (other than amendments, modifications or waivers described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant). A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.15(e) as though it were a Lender. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (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, the Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(p) Any Lender or Participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or Participant or proposed assignee or Participant any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that, prior to any such disclosure of Information (as defined in Section 9.12) designated by the Borrower as confidential, each such assignee or Participant or proposed assignee or Participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or Participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of such confidential information on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.12.

(q) Any Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure extensions of credit to such Lender or in support of

183

obligations owed by such Lender; provided that no such assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(r) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender) and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes including approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of the Loan Documents, remain the Lender of record hereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(s) No such assignment will be made to 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 (j).

(t) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment will be effective unless and until, in

184

addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans 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 Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder becomes effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest will be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

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 (c) of this Section 9.04) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.05 Survival. From and after the Closing Date, all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and the issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount (other than any contingent expense and indemnification obligations) payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Revolving Credit Commitments and the Swingline Commitment are terminated in full prior to the Closing Date in accordance with Section 2.06, this Agreement and any other Loan Documents

185

shall automatically terminate and none of the provisions hereof or thereof shall survive such termination.

SECTION 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Fee Letter and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof except to the extent provided in the Engagement Letter, as it may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time. Except as provided in Article IV and as expressly provided otherwise elsewhere in this Agreement, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Agent and when the Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.07 Severability. To the extent permitted by law, any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates 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 (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any Loan Guarantor against any of and all the Secured Obligations held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured. The applicable Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Agent of such set-off or application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section 9.08. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, AT ANY TIME THAT ANY OF THE SECURED OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE SECURED BY REAL PROPERTY LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA, NO LENDER SHALL EXERCISE A RIGHT OF SETOFF, LENDER’S LIEN OR COUNTERCLAIM OR TAKE ANY COURT OR ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION OR INSTITUTE ANY PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE

186

ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT UNLESS IT IS TAKEN WITH THE CONSENT OF THE LENDERS REQUIRED BY SECTION 9.02 OF THIS AGREEMENT, IF SUCH SETOFF OR ACTION OR PROCEEDING WOULD OR MIGHT (PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 580a, 580b, 580d AND 726 OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE OR SECTION 2924 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, IF APPLICABLE, OR OTHERWISE) AFFECT OR IMPAIR THE VALIDITY, PRIORITY, OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THE LIENS GRANTED TO THE AGENT PURSUANT TO THE COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS OR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND ANY ATTEMPTED EXERCISE BY ANY LENDER OR ANY SUCH RIGHT WITHOUT OBTAINING SUCH CONSENT OF THE PARTIES AS REQUIRED ABOVE, SHALL BE NULL AND VOID. THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL BE SOLELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF EACH OF THE LENDERS.

SECTION 9.09 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (g) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(h) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any U.S. Federal or New York State court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Arranger, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(i) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.09. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(j) To the extent permitted by law, each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably waives personal service of any and all process upon it and agrees that all such service of process may be made by registered mail (return receipt requested) directed

187

to it at its address for notices as provided for in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 9.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.10.

SECTION 9.11 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 9.12 Confidentiality. Each of the Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Arranger, the Issuing Bank and each Lender agrees (and each Lender agrees to cause its SPC, if any) to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors who need to know Information for purposes directly related to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any transactions contemplated thereby in connection with the administration of this Agreement or other Loan Documents, or for purposes directly relating to the provision by it of other financial products or services requested by the Loan Parties, and who are informed by the disclosing party of the confidential nature of such Information and, except for its legal counsel, who agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 9.12, (b) to the extent requested by any Governmental Authority, (c) to the extent required by law or by any subpoena or similar legal process (provided that the Borrower shall be informed promptly of any proposed disclosure pursuant to clause (b) or (c) in order that the Borrower may seek appropriate protective relief, provided further, that in the event that such protective relief or other remedy is not obtained, the disclosing Person shall furnish only that portion of the Information that is legally required and shall disclose the Information in a manner reasonably designed to preserve its confidential nature), (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement

188

of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 9.12, 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, including, without limitation, any SPC, (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its managers, administrators, trustees, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives) to any swap, derivative or other transaction relating to the Loan Parties and their obligations, (iii) any rating agency, or (iv) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.12 or (ii) becomes available to the Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section 9.12, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party relating to the Loan Parties or their businesses, the Sponsor or the Transactions other than any such information that is available to the Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Arranger, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.12 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

SECTION 9.13 Several Obligations; Nonreliance; Violation of Law. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and the failure of any Lender to make any Loan or perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. Each Lender hereby represents that (a) it is not relying on or looking to any Margin Stock for the repayment of the Borrowings provided for herein and acknowledges that the Collateral shall not include any Margin Stock and (b) it is not and will not become a “creditor” as defined in Regulation T or a “foreign branch of a broker-dealer” within the meaning of Regulation X. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender shall be obligated to extend credit to the Borrower in violation of any Requirement of Law.

SECTION 9.14 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

SECTION 9.15 Disclosure. Each Loan Party and each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Agent and/or its Affiliates from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or have other relationships with any of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates.

189

SECTION 9.16 Appointment for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Agent and the Secured Parties, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Agent’s instructions.

SECTION 9.17 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation in any L/C Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or participation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan or participation hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or participation but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.17 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or participations or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 9.18 Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereby acknowledges that it has fully reviewed the Intercreditor Agreement and, by its execution of this Agreement, hereby consents to the execution and delivery of the Intercreditor Agreement by the Agent (in its capacity as Agent hereunder and as agent for the Secured Counterparties) and agrees to comply with the terms thereof (which terms are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety) as if such Lender were a direct signatory thereto.
