For purposes of making the computation referred to above, Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, consolidations and discontinued operations (as determined in accordance with GAAP), in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, and operational changes (including price increases), that the Company Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has both determined to make and made after the Closing Date and during the four-quarter reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to or simultaneously with the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Calculation Date (each, for purposes of this definition, a “pro forma event”) shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Investments, acquisitions, dispositions, mergers, consolidations, discontinued operations and operational changes (including price increases to the extent permitted by the definition of Consolidated EBITDA) (and the change of any associated fixed charge obligations and the change in Consolidated EBITDA resulting therefrom) had occurred on the first day of the four-quarter reference period. If, since the beginning of such period, any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company Borrower or was merged with or into the Company Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary

-32-

thereof since the beginning of such period shall have made or effected any Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation or discontinued operation, in each case with respect to an operating unit of a business, or operational change (including price increases to the extent permitted by the definition of Consolidated EBITDA) that would have required adjustment pursuant to this definition, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto for such period as if such Investment, acquisition, disposition, merger, consolidation, discontinued operation, or operational change had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period.

For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any pro forma event, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company Borrower to the extent identifiable and supportable. Any such pro forma calculation may include, without duplication, adjustments appropriate to reflect cost savings, operating expense reductions, operational changes (including price increases to the extent permitted by the definition of Consolidated EBITDA), restructuring charges and expenses and synergies reasonably expected to result from the applicable event to the extent set forth in the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA;” provided, that such adjustments shall not exceed the percentage-limitations thereon, if any, set forth in the definition of “Consolidated EBITDA.”

If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Company Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period. 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 Company Borrower may designate.

“Fixed Charges”: with respect to any Person for any period, the sum of

(1) Consolidated Interest Expense of such Person for such period, and

(2) all cash dividend payments (excluding items eliminated in consolidation) on any series of Disqualified Stock of such Person and its Restricted Subsidiaries;

provided, further, that, for the avoidance of doubt, payments or charges in connection with the Tax Receivable Agreement shall not constitute Fixed Charges.

Until such time as such an amendment shall have been executed and delivered by the Company Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, all financial ratios, definitions, standards and terms in this Agreement shall continue to be calculated or construed as if such Accounting Changes had not occurred (other than for purposes of delivery of financial statements under Sections 5.1(a) and (b)). “Accounting Changes” refers to changes in accounting principles (i) required by the promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or, if applicable, the SEC or (ii) otherwise proposed by the Company Borrower to, and approved by, the Administrative Agent.

(d) The meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of such terms.

(e) Holdings may amend the income tax receivable agreement referred to in the definition of “Tax Receivable Agreement” from time to time, including pursuant to Materially Adverse TRA Amendments. However, for purposes of Sections 6.2(b)(xxv) and Section 6.5(b)(xx), “Tax Receivable Agreement” shall mean the Tax Receivable Agreement without giving effect to any such Materially Adverse TRA Amendments. Accordingly, the portion of any Restricted Payment in respect of amounts payable under the Tax Receivable Agreement as a result of a Materially Adverse TRA Amendment in excess of the amounts that would have been payable under the Tax Receivable Agreement without giving effect to any Materially Adverse TRA Amendment may only be made to the extent a Restricted Payment basket (other than Section 6.2(b)(xxv)) is available, and a Materially Adverse TRA Amendment shall only be permitted hereunder to the extent not prohibited by Section 6.5 (other than Section 6.5(b)(xx)).

1.3 Accounting. For purposes of all financial definitions and calculations in this Agreement, including the determination of Excess Cash Flow, there shall be excluded for any period the effects of purchase accounting (including the effects of such adjustments pushed down to the Company Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries) in component amounts required or permitted by GAAP (including in the inventory, property and equipment, software, goodwill, intangible assets, in-process research and development, post-employment benefits, deferred revenue and debt line items thereof) and related authoritative pronouncements (including the effects of such adjustments pushed down to the Company Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries), as a result of the Transactions, any acquisition consummated prior to the Closing Date, any Permitted Acquisitions, or the amortization or write-off of any amounts thereof.

1.4 Limited Condition Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any action being taken solely in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of:

(a) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires the calculation of any financial ratio or test, including the Total Net First Lien Leverage Ratio, Total Net Secured Leverage Ratio, Total Net Leverage Ratio and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, or requires the absence of any Default or Event of Default; or

(b) testing availability under baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Total Assets);

in each case, at the option of the Company Borrower (the Company Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) on a Pro Forma Basis as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recently completed period of four consecutive fiscal quarters for which the financial statements and certificates required by Section 5.1(a) or (b), as the case may be, have been or were required to have been delivered ending prior to the LCT Test Date, the Company Borrower would have been permitted to take such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, test or basket, such ratio, test or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with. If the Company Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with the calculation of any ratio, test or basket availability with respect to the Incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, the making of Restricted Payments, the making of any Permitted Investment, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, the prepayment, redemption, purchase, defeasance or other satisfaction of Indebtedness, or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date that the definitive agreement or irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction (a “Subsequent Transaction”), for purposes of determining whether any such Subsequent Transaction is permitted under this Agreement, any such ratio, test or basket shall be required to be satisfied on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated; provided that, in connection with any Subsequent Transaction, the calculation of Consolidated Net Income (and any defined term a component of which is Consolidated Net Income) shall not assume such Limited Condition Transaction has been consummated.

Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid.

2.6 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) If any Indebtedness shall be incurred by any Group Member (other than any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred by any such Person in accordance with Section 6.1), concurrently with, and as a condition to closing of such transaction, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied on the date of such issuance or incurrence toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in clause (f) of this Section 2.6.

-67-

(b) Subject to clause (d) of this Section 2.6, if, for any Excess Cash Flow Period, there shall be Excess Cash Flow in an amount greater than $10,000,000, an amount equal to the excess of (i) ECF Percentage of the amount by which such Excess Cash Flow exceeds $10,000,000 over (ii) to the extent not funded with the proceeds of Indebtedness constituting “long term indebtedness” under GAAP (other than Indebtedness in respect of any revolving credit facility), the aggregate amount of (1) all Purchases by any Permitted Auction Purchaser (determined by the actual cash purchase price paid by such Permitted Auction Purchaser for such Purchase and not the par value of the Loans purchased by such Permitted Auction Purchaser) pursuant to a Dutch Auction permitted hereunder and (2) voluntary prepayments of Loans made by the Borrower during the Specified Period for such Excess Cash Flow Period, shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, be applied toward the prepayment of the Loans as set forth in clause (f) of this Section 2.6. Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than 10 Business Days after the date on which the financial statements of the Company Borrower referred to in Section 5.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders.

(c) Subject to clause (d) of this Section 2.6, if, on any date, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from (x) any Asset Sale or any Recovery Event in excess of $10,000,000 in any fiscal year or (y) any Sale Leaseback Transaction in excess of $15,000,000 in any fiscal year, then, unless no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Company Borrower has determined in good faith that such Net Cash Proceeds shall be reinvested in its business (a “Reinvestment Event”), then such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within five Business Days of such date to prepay (A) outstanding Loans in accordance with this Section 2.6 and (B) at the Company Borrower’s option, outstanding Indebtedness that is secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis incurred (x) as Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt or (y) pursuant to Section 6.1(b)(vi)(I) (collectively, “Other Applicable Indebtedness”); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to any Asset Sale or Recovery Event, shall be applied to prepay the outstanding Loans as set forth in clause (f) of this Section 2.6. Any such Net Cash Proceeds may be applied to Other Applicable Indebtedness only to (and not in excess of) the extent to which a mandatory prepayment in respect of such Asset Sale or Recovery Event is required under the terms of such Other Applicable Indebtedness (with any remaining Net Cash Proceeds applied to prepay outstanding Loans in accordance with the terms hereof), unless such application would result in the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness receiving in excess of their pro rata share (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans and Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time) of such Net Cash Proceeds relative to Lenders, in which case such Net Cash Proceeds may only be applied to Other Applicable Indebtedness on a pro rata basis with outstanding Loans. To the extent the holders of Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such indebtedness repurchased, repaid or prepaid with any such Net Cash Proceeds, the declined amount of such Net Cash Proceeds shall promptly (and, in any event, within 10 Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay Loans in accordance with the terms hereof (to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds would otherwise have been required to be applied if such Other Applicable Indebtedness was not then outstanding).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including clauses (b) and (c) above), to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale or Recovery Event by a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign Disposition”) or Excess Cash Flow attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries (or foreign branches of Domestic Subsidiaries) are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States (including financial assistance and corporate benefit restrictions and fiduciary and statutory duties of the relevant directors) or such repatriation would result in material adverse Tax consequences, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Loans at the times set forth in this Section 2.6 but may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary or branch so long, but only so long, as such applicable local law will not

-68-

permit repatriation to the United States or such material adverse Tax consequences would continue to result from such repatriation (the Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary or branch to promptly take commercially reasonable actions to permit such repatriation without violating applicable local law or incurring material adverse Tax consequences), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under such applicable local law or material adverse Tax consequences would no longer result from such repatriation, such repatriation will be immediately effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than 10 Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional Taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.6.

(e) The Company Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent notice of each prepayment required under this Section 2.6 not less than five Business Days prior to the date such prepayment shall be made (each such date, a “Mandatory Prepayment Date”). Such notice shall set forth (i) the Mandatory Prepayment Date and (ii) the principal amount of each Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of such notice and of each such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the prepayment. Each such Lender may reject all of its Pro Rata Share of the prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent and the Company Borrower no later than 5:00 P.M., New York City time, one (1) Business Day after the date of such Lender’s receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent. Each Rejection Notice from a given Lender shall specify the principal amount of the prepayment to be rejected by such Lender. If a Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the prepayment to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such prepayment. Any Declined Proceeds may be retained by the Company Borrower. The Company Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under this Section 2.6, a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment.

(f) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be applied to the prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.12(b). The application of any prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be made on a pro rata basis regardless of Type. Each prepayment of the Loans under this Section 2.6 shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.

2.7 Conversion and Continuation Options.

(a) The Company Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date; provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Company Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice of such election no later than 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor); provided, further, that, no ABR Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

(b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Company Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in

-69-

Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans; provided that, to the extent the Required Lenders provide written notice thereof to the Company Borrower, no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that if the Company Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

2.8 Limitations on Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than 10 Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

2.9 Interest Rates and Payment Dates.

(a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2% and (ii) if all or a portion of (x) any interest payable on any Loan or (y) any other amount payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility plus 2% (or, in the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the Facility plus 2%), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

(d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to Section 2.9(c) shall be payable from time to time on demand.

2.10 Computation of Interest.

(a) Interest payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to ABR Loans, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Company Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Company Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to an ABR Loan being converted from a Eurodollar Loan, the date of conversion

-70-

of such Eurodollar Loan to such ABR Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to an ABR Loan being converted to a Eurodollar Loan, the date of conversion of such ABR Loan to such Eurodollar Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Company Borrower, deliver to the Company Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.9(a).

2.11 Inability to Determine Interest Rate; Illegality.

(a) If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that (i) by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or (ii) that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Facility because of (x) any change since the Closing Date in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (whether or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request, such as, but not limited to, a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the Eurodollar Rate and/or (y) other circumstances arising since the Closing Date affecting Lender, the interbank market or the position of such Lender in such market (including that the Eurodollar Rate with respect to such Eurodollar Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Majority Facility Lender of funding such Eurodollar Loan), then, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) shall promptly give notice (by telephone promptly confirmed in writing) to the Company Borrower and, except in the case of clause (i) above, the Administrative Agent of such determination. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent (which the Administrative Agent agrees to do promptly once such condition no longer exists), no further Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurodollar Loans.

(b) If any Lender determines that any Requirement of Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, then, by written notice to the Company Borrower and to the Administrative Agent:

(i) such Lender may declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional

-71-

Interest Periods) and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Eurodollar Loans, whereupon any request for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans (or to convert a Borrowing of ABR Loans to Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans or to continue a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (or a request to continue an ABR Loan as such for an additional Interest Period or to convert a Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans (the interest rate on which shall, if necessary to avoid illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the ABR), in which event all such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in clause (a) above until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for any such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate.

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

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

(c) If any Secured Party determines, acting reasonably, that any applicable law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Secured Party to hold or benefit from a Lien over real property of the Loan Parties pursuant to any law of the United States or any State thereof, such Secured Party may notify the Administrative Agent and disclaim any benefit of such security interest to the extent of such illegality; provided that such determination or disclaimer shall not invalidate, render unenforceable or otherwise affect in any manner such Lien for the benefit of any other Secured Party.

2.12 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Each borrowing by the Company Borrower from the Lenders hereunder shall be made pro rata according to the respective Percentages or Incremental Percentages, as the case may be, of the relevant Lenders.

(b) Each payment (including each prepayment) on account of principal of and interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata to the Lenders according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans then held by the Lenders. The amount of each optional prepayment of the Loans made pursuant to Section 2.5 shall be applied as directed by the Company Borrower in the notice described in Section 2.5 and, if no direction is given by the Company Borrower, in the direct order of maturity. The amount of each mandatory prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.6 (other than any such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.6(b)) shall be applied as directed by the Company Borrower in the notice described in Section 2.6 and, if no direction is given by the Company Borrower, in the direct order of maturity. The amount of each mandatory prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall be applied in the direct order of maturity.

-72-

(c) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Any payments received after such time shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day at the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. Except as otherwise provided hereunder, if any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be required on the immediately preceding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor (a “Funding Default”), such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.

2.13 Requirements of Law.

(a) Subject to clause (c) of this Section 2.13, if any Change in Law shall (i) subject any Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Application, any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof, (ii) impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate or (iii) impose on such Lender any other condition, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender by an amount that such Lender reasonably deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Company Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

(b) Subject to clause (c) of this Section 2.13, if any Lender shall have determined that compliance by such Lender (or any corporation controlling such Lender) with any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Company Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this Section 2.13(b)), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation for such reduction.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including clauses (a) and (b) above), reimbursement pursuant to this Section 2.13 for (A) increased costs arising from any market disruption (i) shall be limited to circumstances generally affecting the banking market and (ii) may only be requested by Lenders representing the Majority Facility Lenders with respect to the applicable Facility and (B) increased costs because of any Change in Law resulting from clause (i) or (ii) of the proviso to the definition of “Change in Law” may only be requested by a Lender imposing such increased costs on borrowers similarly situated to the Borrower under syndicated credit facilities comparable to those provided hereunder. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the Company Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the additional amount shown as due on any such certificate promptly after and, in any event, within 10 Business Days of receipt thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any amounts incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Company Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

-74-

(d) This Section 2.13 shall not apply to any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (each of which is provided for in Section 2.14) or any Excluded Taxes.

2.14 Taxes .

(a) All payments made by any Loan Party under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, including any penalties, interest and additions to tax with respect thereto, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (collectively, “Taxes”), unless required by applicable law. If any such Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the applicable withholding agent shall pay, or withhold and remit, to the applicable Governmental Authority the full amount of such Taxes, and if the Tax in question is a Non-Excluded Tax or an Other Tax, the applicable Loan Party shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary so that, after any required withholdings have been made (including any withholdings attributable to any payments required to be made under this Section 2.14) each Lender (or in the case of a payment made to the Administrative Agent for its own account, such Administrative Agent) receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes not been levied or imposed. The Loan Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 20 Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes levied or imposed and paid by such Person (including Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.14), whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided that if the Administrative Agent or any Lender requests indemnification more than 90 days after the earlier of (1) the date on which the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, received written demand for payment of the applicable Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes from the relevant Governmental Authority or (2) the date on which the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, paid the applicable Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes, the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender shall not be indemnified to the extent that such failure or delay results in prejudice to the Borrower). A certificate stating the amount of such payment or liability and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation thereof prepared in good faith and delivered to the Company Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

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

(c) Whenever any Taxes are payable by any Loan Party, within 45 days of the date the payment of any such Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law, the Company Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the relevant Loan Party showing payment thereof, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Each Lender that is not a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Company Borrower and the Administrative Agent two original accurate and complete copies of whichever of the following is applicable: (i) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor forms) claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (ii) U.S. Internal Revenue Service

-75-

Form W-8ECI (or successor forms), (iii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (A) a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit C-1 (any such Exhibit C certificate, a “Form of Exemption Certificate” and (B) a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor forms), (iv) to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership or participating Lender), U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or successor forms) of the Non-U.S. Lender, accompanied by Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN or W-BEN-E, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 or Exhibit C-3, Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable (in each case, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto) that would be required under this Section 2.14(d) if such beneficial owner were a Lender; provided that if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit C-4 on behalf of each such direct or indirect partner), and (v) any other form prescribed by applicable United States federal income tax laws (including the Treasury regulations) as a basis for claiming complete exemption from, or reduction in, United States federal withholding tax on any payments to such Lender under any Loan Document. Each Lender that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Company Borrower and the Administrative Agent two original copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender claiming complete exemption from United States federal backup withholding. The Administrative Agent shall provide to the Company Borrower two accurate and complete original signed copies of whichever of the following is applicable: (1) if the Administrative Agent is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying to such Administrative Agent’s exemption from U.S. federal backup withholding or (2) if the Administrative Agent is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), (i) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI with respect to payments received for its own account and (ii) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (together with all required accompanying documentation) with respect to payments received by it on behalf of the Lenders. The documentation referenced in the previous three sentences shall be delivered by the Administrative Agent and each Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (d), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver any documentation pursuant to this paragraph (d) that the Administrative Agent is not legally eligible to deliver as a result of a Change in Tax Law after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (d) or Section 2.14(e), each Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation pursuant to this paragraph (d) or Section 2.14(e) that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(e) If any Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of any withholding Tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then such Lender shall deliver to the Company Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding, provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, is legally eligible to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s judgment, as applicable, such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of the Administrative Agent and such Lender. In addition, each Lender agrees that, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any documentation (including any specific documentation required in Section 2.14(d) or (g)) obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any respect, deliver promptly to the Company Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Company Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or immediately notify the Company Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so.

-76-

(f) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Loan Party or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14, it shall pay over such refund to the Company Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by any Loan Party under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Company Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Company Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph (f) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Company Borrower or any other Person.

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

(h) The agreements in this Section 2.14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder, resignation of the Administrative Agent and any assignment of rights by, or replacement of, any Lender.

2.15 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Company Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Company Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if

-77-

any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, reduced, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, reduce, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, reduce, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest or other return for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Company Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.16 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Sections 2.13 or 2.14 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Company Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Sections 2.13 or 2.14.

2.17 Replacement of Lenders. The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.13 or 2.14 (or with respect to which the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts or indemnity payments pursuant to such sections), (b) becomes a Defaulting Lender or otherwise defaults in its obligation to make Loans hereunder or (c) has not consented to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by Section 10.1 that requires the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders under a particular Facility or each Lender affected thereby and which has been approved by the Required Lenders as provided in Section 10.1, with a Lender or Eligible Assignee; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) in the case of clause (a), prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 2.16 sufficient to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.13 or 2.14, (iii) the replacement financial institution or other Eligible Assignee shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts (or, in the case of clause (c) as it relates to provisions affecting a particular Facility, Loans or other amounts owing under such Facility) owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.15 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (v) the replacement financial institution or other Eligible Assignee, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vi) the replaced Lender shall be deemed to have made such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6, (vii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.13 or 2.14, as the case may be, (viii) the Borrower shall pay to such replaced Lender all accrued and unpaid interest on all outstanding Loans of such replaced Lender and any prepayment premium due to the Lenders under Section 2.5(b) and (ix) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. Upon any such assignment, such replaced Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof (or, in the case of clause (c) as it relates to provisions affecting a particular Facility, a Lender under such Facility); provided that any rights of such replaced Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such replaced Lender. Each Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower agrees that in connection with the replacement of a Lender and upon payment to such replaced Lender of all amounts required to be paid under this Section 2.17, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be authorized, without the

-78-

need for additional consent from such replaced Lender, to execute an Assignment and Assumption on behalf of such replaced Lender, and any such Assignment and Assumption so executed by the Administrative Agent and, to the extent required under Section 10.6, the Borrower, shall be effective for purposes of this Section 2.17 and Section 10.6. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.17, in the event that a Lender which holds Loans or Commitments under more than one Facility does not agree to a proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver which requires the consent of all Lenders under a particular Facility, the Borrower shall be permitted to replace the non-consenting Lender with respect to the affected Facility and may, but shall not be required to, replace such Lender with respect to any unaffected Facilities.

2.18 Notes. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to the Company Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 10.6) (promptly after the Company Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Loans.

2.19 Incremental Credit Extensions.(a) The Borrower may, at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice from the Company Borrower to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request one or more additional tranches of Loans (the commitments thereof, the “Incremental Commitments”, the loans thereunder, the “Incremental Loans”, and a Lender making such loans, an “Incremental Lender”); it being understood that Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2 each ~~constitute~~constituted an “Incremental Amendment” with respect to the establishment of the Term B-2 Commitments as “Incremental Commitments” and the Term B-2 Loans as “Incremental Loans”; provided that:

(i) after giving effect to any such Incremental Loans, the aggregate amount of Incremental Loans shall not exceed an amount equal to the sum of (x) an unlimited amount at any time so long as the Total Net First Lien Leverage Ratio on a Pro Forma Basis (but without giving effect to the cash proceeds remaining on the balance sheet of such Incremental Loans) as of the most recently completed period of four consecutive fiscal quarters for which the financial statements and certificates required by Section 5.1(a) or (b), as the case may be, have been or were required to have been delivered does not exceed 4.35 to 1.00 (without giving effect to any contemporaneous borrowing under clause (z) below), plus (y) the amount of all prior voluntary prepayments of the Loans, Incremental Loans and Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 6.1(b)(vi)(I) that is secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Obligations prior to such time, plus (z) $285,000,000 (less, in the case of this clause (z), the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness incurred under Section 6.1(b)(vi)(I)(c) or Section 6.1(b)(vi)(II)(c)); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount available to the Borrower pursuant to this clause (z) (A) shall not be reduced by the Term B-1 Loans or the Term B-2 Loans and (B) shall be available at all times and shall not be subject to the ratio test described in foregoing clause (x); provided, further, that the Borrower may incur such Indebtedness under any clause (x), (y) or (z) above in such order as it may elect in its sole discretion;

(ii) the Incremental Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder;

(iii) the Incremental Loans shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date;

(iv) the Incremental Loans shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Loans;

-79-

(v) subject to clauses (iii) and (iv) above, the interest rates and the amortization schedule applicable to any such Incremental Loans shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable Incremental Lenders;

(vi) no Default or Event of Default (or, in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, no Default or Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(f)) shall exist on the Incremental Facility Closing Date with respect to any Incremental Amendment entered into in connection therewith (and after giving effect to any Incremental Loans made thereunder); and

(vii) with respect to any Incremental Amendment, if the all-in-yield (whether in the form of interest rate margins, original issue discount, upfront fees or interest rate floors (subject to the first proviso in this clause (vii)), with such increased amount being equated to interest margin for purposes of determining any increase to the Applicable Margin under the Facility) with respect to the Incremental Loans made thereunder (as determined by the Borrower and the applicable Incremental Lenders) exceeds the all-in yield (after giving effect to interest rate margins (including the interest rate floors (subject to the first proviso in this clause (vii))), original issue discount (equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity or, if shorter, the remaining life to maturity thereof) and upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amount of original issue discount), but excluding any arrangement, structuring or other fees payable in connection therewith that are not shared with all Lenders providing such Incremental Loan, which shall not be included and equated to the interest rate) with respect to the existing Loans, after giving effect to any increase or repricing thereof that has theretofor become effective (it being understood that if any such repricing was effected as a refinancing tranche, the OID applicable to the refinanced loans shall be taken into account), by more than 50 basis points (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Incremental Yield Differential”), then, upon the effectiveness of such Incremental Amendment, the Applicable Margin then in effect for Loans shall automatically be increased by the Incremental Yield Differential; provided, that if the Incremental Loans include an interest-rate floor greater than the interest rate floor applicable to the Loans, the differential between such interest rate floors shall be equated to the interest rate margins for purposes of determining whether an increase to the Applicable Margin shall be required, but only to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor applicable to the Loans would cause an increase in the Applicable Margin applicable to such Loans, and in such case the interest rate floor (but not the Applicable Margin) applicable to the Loans shall be increased to the extent of such differential between interest rate floors; provided, further, that any Incremental Facility that constitutes fixed-rate Indebtedness shall be swapped to a floating rate on a customary matched-maturity basis.

(b) Except as set forth in Section 2.19(a), the Incremental Loans shall be treated substantially the same as the Loans, including with respect to mandatory and voluntary prepayments (unless the applicable Incremental Lenders agree to a less than pro rata share of such prepayments) and Guarantees. Each notice from the Company Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.19(a) shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Loans.

(c) Incremental Loans may be made by any existing Lender or any Additional Lender (provided that no Lender shall be obligated to make a portion of any Incremental Loan) on terms permitted in this Section 2.19 and, to the extent not permitted in this Section 2.19, all terms and documentation with respect to any Incremental Loan which (i) are materially more restrictive on the Group Members, taken as a whole, than those with respect to the Loans (but excluding any terms applicable after the Maturity Date) or (ii) relate to provisions of a mechanical (including with respect to the Collateral and currency mechanics) or administrative nature, shall in each case be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided

-80-

that the Administrative Agent shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such Lender’s making such Incremental Loans if such consent would be required under Section 10.6(b) for an assignment of Loans to such Lender or Additional Lender. Commitments in respect of Incremental Loans shall become Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section including, subject to clause (b) of this Section 2.19, amendments to Sections 2.3(a) and 2.5(b) that do not adversely affect the Lenders affected thereby. The effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment shall be (unless waived or not required by the Incremental Lenders in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction) subject to the satisfaction of the condition set forth in clause (d) below and such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree (the effective date of any such Incremental Amendment, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”). The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Incremental Loans for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.

(d) Each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party in or pursuant to the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (except where such representations and warranties are already qualified by materiality, in which case such representation and warranty shall be accurate in all respects) on and as of the Incremental Facility Closing Date as if made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects (except where such representations and warranties are already qualified by materiality, in which case such representation and warranty shall be accurate in all respects) as of such earlier date.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 2.19 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.12 or 10.1 to the contrary and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend Section 2.12 to implement any Incremental Amendment.

2.20 Refinancing Amendments .

(a) At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Lender, Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt in respect of all or any portion of the Loans then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Loans) in the form of Other Loans or Other Commitments pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; it being understood that Amendment No. 3 constitutes a “Refinancing Amendment” with respect to the establishment of the Term B-3 Commitments as “Other Commitments” and the Term B-3 Loans as “Other Loans”; provided that such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt:

(i) shall not be permitted to rank senior in right of payment or security to the other Loans and Commitments hereunder;

(ii) will have such pricing, premiums, optional prepayment terms and financial covenants as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof;

(iii) will have a maturity date that is not prior to the maturity date of, and will have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is not shorter than, the Loans being Refinanced;

-81-

(iv) subject to clause (ii) above, will have terms and conditions that are either substantially identical to, or, taken as a whole, less favorable to the Lenders or Additional Lenders providing such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt than, the Refinanced Debt; and

(v) the proceeds of such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the prepayment of outstanding Loans being so Refinanced;

provided, further, that the terms and conditions applicable to such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt may provide for any financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the date such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt is issued, incurred or obtained. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (unless waived by the Lenders providing such Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt) and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, be subject to the receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.1.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Loans and/or Other Commitments).

(c) Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement, any Intercreditor Agreement (or to effect a replacement of any Intercreditor Agreement) and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 2.20 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.12 or 10.1 to the contrary and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend Section 2.12 to implement any Refinancing Amendment.

2.21 Defaulting Lenders .

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

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

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the

-82-

payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fourth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans and such Lender is a Defaulting Lender under clause (a) of the definition thereof, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the relevant Loans of the relevant non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share (without giving effect to Section 2.21(a)(ii)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) No Release. The provisions hereof attributable to Defaulting Lenders shall not release or excuse any Defaulting Lender from failure to perform its obligations hereunder.

2.22 Loan Modification Offers .

(a) The Borrower may, on one or more occasions, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Lenders of one or more Classes on the same terms to each such Lender (each Class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, a “Specified Class”) to make one or more Permitted Amendments pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower; provided that (i) any such offer shall be made by the Borrower to all Lenders with Loans with a like maturity date (whether under one or more tranches) on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the applicable Loans), (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of any such offer and (iii) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than five Business Days nor more than 45 Business Days after the date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent); provided that, notwithstanding anything to the

-83-

contrary, (x) assignments and participations of Specified Classes shall be governed by the same or, at the Borrower’s discretion, more restrictive assignment and participation provisions than those set forth in Section 10.6, and (y) no repayment of Specified Classes shall be permitted unless such repayment is accompanied by an at least pro rata repayment of all earlier maturing Loans (including previously extended Loans) (or all earlier maturing Loans (including previously extended Loans) shall otherwise be or have been terminated and repaid in full). Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Lenders of the Specified Class that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Loans and Commitments of such Specified Class as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made. No Lender shall have any obligation to accept any Loan Modification Offer.

(b) A Permitted Amendment shall be effected pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement (a “Loan Modification Agreement”) executed and delivered by the Borrower, each applicable Accepting Lender and the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. No Loan Modification Agreement shall provide for any extension of any Specified Class in an aggregate principal amount that is less than 25% of such Specified Class then outstanding or committed, as the case may be. Each Loan Modification Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable Accepting Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.22, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder; provided that (x) no Loan Modification Agreement may provide for (i) any Specified Class to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Group Member that does not also secure the Loans and (ii) so long as any Loans are outstanding, any mandatory or voluntary prepayment provisions that do not also apply to the Loans on a pro rata basis; and (y) the terms and conditions of the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders (excluding pricing, fees, rate floors and optional prepayment or redemption terms) shall be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) shall be no more favorable to, the Accepting Lenders than those applicable to the Specified Class (except for financial covenants or other covenants or provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date at the time of such Loan Modification Offer, as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Accepting Lenders).

(c) Subject to Section 2.22(b), the Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Loan Modification Agreement that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Loan Modification Offer in the Borrower’s sole discretion and may be waived by the Borrower) of Loans of any or all applicable Classes be extended.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, this Section 2.22 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.12 or 10.1 to the contrary and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend Section 2.12 to implement any Loan Modification Agreement.

All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein).

3.2 No Change. Since December 31, 2013, there has been no development or event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.3 Existence; Compliance with Law.

3.4 Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations.

(a) Each Loan Party has the power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to obtain extensions of credit hereunder.

-85-

(b) No Governmental Approval or consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any other Person is required in connection with the extensions of credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except (i) Governmental Approvals, consents, authorizations, filings and notices that have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and (ii) the filings referred to in Section 3.15.

(c) Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each applicable Loan Party. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each applicable Loan Party, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

3.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the borrowings and guarantees hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any material Requirement of Law, any Contractual Obligation of any Group Member that is material to the Company Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or the Organizational Documents of any Loan Party and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law, any such Organizational Documents or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents and the ABL Documents). The consummation of the Transactions will not (a) violate (x) any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of any Group Member, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (y) the Organizational Documents of any Loan Party and (b) will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law, any such Organizational Documents or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents).

No litigation, suit or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened by or against any Group Member or against any of their respective properties, assets or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (b) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.7 Ownership of Property; Liens. Each Group Member has title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other property, and none of such property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 6.6 and except where the failure to have such title or other interest could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

3.8 Intellectual Property. Except as could not, individually or in an aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Group Members own, or are licensed to use, all intellectual property necessary for the conduct in all material respects of the business of the Company Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, as currently conducted. No material claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning any Group Member’s use of any

-86-

intellectual property or the validity or effectiveness of any Group Member’s intellectual property or alleging that the conduct of any Group Member’s business infringes or violates the rights of any Person, nor does Holdings or the Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim except for such claims that could not reasonably be expected to impair or interfere in any material respect with the operations of the business conducted by the Company Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or result in a Material Adverse Effect.

3.9 Taxes. Except as set forth on Schedule 3.9 or as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) each Group Member has filed or caused to be filed all Tax returns that are required to be filed and has paid all Taxes due and payable (including in its capacity as a withholding agent), whether or not shown on such Tax returns, and any assessments made against it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than any amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the relevant Group Member); and (ii) no Tax Lien has been filed, and, to the knowledge of any of the Group Members, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge.

Neither a Reportable Event nor a failure to meet the minimum funding standards of Section 412 or 430 of the Code or Section 302 or 303 of ERISA has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, each Plan has been operated and maintained in compliance in all respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period. The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material amount. Neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability under ERISA. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent.

3.12 Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(a) the facilities and real properties owned, leased or operated by any Group Member (the “Properties”) do not contain, and (to the knowledge of the Group Members) have not previously contained, any Materials of Environmental Concern in amounts or concentrations or under circumstances that constitute or constituted a violation of any Environmental Law;

-87-

(b) no Group Member has received any written notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability regarding environmental matters or compliance with Environmental Laws with regard to any of the Properties or the business operated by any Group Member (the “Business”), nor does any Loan Party have knowledge that any such notice is being threatened;

(c) Materials of Environmental Concern have not been released, transported, generated, treated, stored or disposed of from the Properties in violation of, or in a manner or to a location that is reasonably expected to give rise to liability under, any Environmental Law;

(d) no judicial proceeding or governmental or administrative action is pending or, to the knowledge of any Group Member, threatened, under any Environmental Law to which any Group Member is or will be named as a party with respect to the Properties or the Business, nor are there any consent decrees or other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other orders, or other judicial requirements outstanding under any Environmental Law with respect to the Properties or the Business;

(e) the Properties and all operations at the Properties are in compliance, and (to the knowledge of the Group Members) have in the past been in compliance, with all applicable Environmental Laws;

(f) to the knowledge of the Group Members, there are no past or present conditions, events, circumstances, facts, or activities that would reasonably be expected to give rise to any liability or other obligation for any Group Member under any Environmental Laws;

3.14 Accuracy of Information, etc. No statement or information concerning any Group Member or the Business contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Confidential Information Memorandum or any other document, certificate or statement furnished by or on behalf of any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, or any of them, for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, contained, as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished (or, in the case of the Confidential Information Memorandum, as of the Closing Date), any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not materially misleading. The projections and pro forma financial information, taken as a whole, contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Company Borrower to be reasonable at the time made and as of the Closing Date (with respect to such projections and pro forma financial information delivered prior to the Closing Date), it being recognized by the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact, forecasts and projections are subject to uncertainties and contingencies, actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount and no assurance can be given that any forecast or projections will be realized.

3.15 Security Documents.

(a) Each of the Security Documents is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest

-88-

in the Collateral described therein and proceeds thereof. In the case of (i) the Capital Stock described in the Security Agreement that are securities represented by stock certificates or otherwise constituting certificated securities within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(15) of the New York UCC or the corresponding code or statute of any other applicable jurisdiction, when certificates representing such Capital Stock are delivered to the Administrative Agent, and (ii) in the case of the other Collateral not described in clause (i) constituting personal property described in the Security Agreement, when financing statements and other filings, agreements and actions specified on Schedule 3.15(a) in appropriate form are executed and delivered, performed or filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.15(a), as the case may be, the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall have a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except, in the case of Permitted Priority Liens). Other than as set forth on Schedule 3.15(a), as of the Closing Date, none of the Capital Stock of the Borrower or Company Subsidiary Guarantor that is a limited liability company or partnership is a Certificated Security (as defined in the Security Agreement).

(b) Each of the Mortgages delivered on or after the Closing Date is, or upon execution and recording will be, effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable Lien on the Mortgaged Properties described therein and proceeds thereof, and when the Mortgages are filed in the recording offices for the applicable jurisdictions in which the Mortgaged Properties are located, each such Mortgage shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Mortgaged Properties and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the relevant Mortgage), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person other than holders of Permitted Priority Liens. Schedule 1.1C lists, as of the Closing Date, each Material Property located in the United States and held by any Loan Party.

3.16 Solvency. As of the Closing Date, the Group Members, on a consolidated basis, after giving effect to the Transactions and the incurrence of all Indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection herewith and therewith and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will be and will continue to be, Solvent.

3.17 Patriot Act; FCPA; OFAC.

(a) To the extent applicable, each Loan Party and each Group Member is in compliance, in all material respects, with the Patriot Act.

(b) The Borrower has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance by the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, to the extent acting on behalf of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, with applicable Sanctions and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, other applicable anti-corruption laws, and the Borrower, Holdings, their respective Subsidiaries and their respective officers, directors and employees and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, their respective agents, are in compliance with applicable Sanctions, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, other applicable anti-corruption laws, in all material respects. None of (a) the Borrower, any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective directors, officers or employees, or (b) to the knowledge of the Borrower, any agent, affiliate or other representative of the Borrower or any Subsidiary is a Sanctioned Person, nor is the Borrower or any Subsidiary located, organized or resident in a Sanctioned Country. No use of proceeds of the Loan by the Borrower, its Restricted Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents will violate applicable Sanctions, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, or to the knowledge of the Borrower, any other applicable anti-corruption laws.

-89-

3.18 Status as Senior Indebtedness. The Obligations under the Facilities constitute “senior debt,” “senior indebtedness,” “guarantor senior debt,” “senior secured financing” and “designated senior indebtedness” (or any comparable term) for all Indebtedness (if any) that is subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations.

Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, no officer of any Group Member shall have any personal liability in connection with the representations and warranties and other certifications in this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(c) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.1, in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt (including clause (a) of this Section 6.1), the Company Borrower shall, in its sole discretion, at the time of Incurrence, divide, classify or reclassify, or at any later time divide, classify or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 6.1; provided, that, Indebtedness incurred under clauses (b)(i) or (b)(ii) of this Section 6.1 shall be deemed for all purposes of this Agreement to have been incurred under such clauses or subclauses and shall not be reclassified. With respect to clause (vii), (xiv), (xxix), (xxx), and (xxxi) of this Section 6.1, if at any time that the Company Borrower would be entitled to have incurred any then-outstanding item of Indebtedness under clause (a) of this Section 6.1, such item of Indebtedness shall be automatically reclassified into an item of Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 6.1. The Company Borrower will also be entitled to divide, classify or reclassify an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Permitted Debt described in clauses (a) and (b) of this Section 6.1 without giving pro forma effect to the Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or

-107-

Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) Incurred pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 6.1 when calculating the amount of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock (or any portion thereof) that may be Incurred pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 6.1. For the avoidance of doubt, Indebtedness Incurred under any subclause of clause (a)(i) of Section 2.19 or any subclause of clause (b)(vi) of this Section 6.1 shall be deemed to have been Incurred solely pursuant to such specific subclause and shall not be permitted to be reclassified as Indebtedness Incurred under the other subclause of such Section 2.19(a) or 6.1(b)(vi), as applicable. For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.1, with respect to Indebtedness Incurred, re-borrowings of amounts previously repaid pursuant to “cash sweep” provisions or any similar provisions that provide that Indebtedness is deemed to be repaid daily (or otherwise periodically) shall only be deemed for purposes of this Section 6.1 to have been Incurred on the date such Indebtedness was first Incurred and not on the date of any subsequent re-borrowing thereof. Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in the form of additional shares of Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of the same class, the accretion of liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock for purposes of this Section 6.1. For the avoidance of doubt, the outstanding principal amount of any particular Indebtedness shall be counted only once. Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness, provided that the Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this Section 6.1.

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed or first Incurred (whichever yields the lower U.S. dollar equivalent), in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced.

6.2 Limitation on Restricted Payments.

SECTION 7 GUARANTEE

7.1 The Guarantee. (a) [Reserved].

(b) Each Company Guarantor hereby jointly and severally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not as a surety, to each Secured Party and their respective successors and assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of (1) the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar law of any other jurisdiction) on (i) the Loans made by the Lenders to the Company Borrower, (ii) the Incremental Loans made by the Incremental Lenders to the Company Borrower, (iii) the Other Loans made by any lender thereof, and (iv) the Notes held by each Lender of the Company Borrower and (2) all other Obligations from time to time owing to the Secured Parties by the Company Borrower (such obligations under clauses (1) and (2) being herein collectively called the “Guarantor Obligations”). Each Company Guarantor hereby jointly and severally agrees that, if the Company Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guarantor Obligations, such Company Guarantor will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guarantor Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

7.2 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 7.1, shall constitute a guaranty of payment (and not of collection) and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guarantor Obligations of the Company Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guarantor Obligations, and irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety by any Company Guarantor, as applicable (except for payment in full). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall, in each case, remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above;

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

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

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

(e) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Lender or the Administrative Agent as security for any of the Guarantor Obligations shall fail to be valid or perfected or entitled to the expected priority;

(f) the release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.9, or otherwise; or

-126-

(g) any other circumstance whatsoever which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guarantor Obligations or which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower or any Guarantor for the Guarantor Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the Guarantee or of any security interest granted by any Guarantor, whether in a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or in any other instance.

Each of the Guarantors hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, marshaling, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Company Borrower, as the case may be, under this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guarantor Obligations. Each of the Guarantors waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guarantor Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon the guarantee made under this Section 7 (this “Guarantee”) or acceptance of the Guarantee, and the Guarantor Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon the Guarantee, and all dealings between the Company Borrower and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the Guarantee. The Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guarantor Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Parties and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against the Company Borrower or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guarantor Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. The Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the applicable Lenders, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guarantor Obligations outstanding.

7.3 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 7 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Company Borrower or any other Loan Party in respect of the Guarantor Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guarantor Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

7.4 No Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Guarantor Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made) and the expiration and termination of the Commitments under this Agreement it shall waive any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its Guarantee, whether by subrogation, right of contribution or otherwise, against the Company Borrower, as applicable, or any other Guarantor of any of the Guarantor Obligations or any security for any of the Guarantor Obligations.

7.5 Remedies. Each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 8 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 8) for purposes of Section 7.1, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower or any Guarantor and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due

-127-

and payable, or the circumstances occurring where Section 8 provides that such obligations shall become due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Company Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 7.1.

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

7.7 Continuing Guarantee. The Guarantee made by the Company Guarantors is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Guarantor Obligations whenever arising.

7.8 General Limitation on Guarantor Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any federal, state, provincial or territorial, corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 7.1 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 7.1, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability of such Guarantor shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 7.10) that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding. To effectuate the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Guarantors hereby irrevocably agree that the Guarantor Obligations of each Guarantor in respect of the Guarantee at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the Guarantor Obligations of such Guarantor with respect thereto hereof not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance after giving full effect to the liability under such Guarantee and its related contribution rights but before taking into account any liabilities under any other guarantee by such Guarantor. For purposes of the foregoing, all guarantees of such Guarantor other than its Guarantee will be deemed to be enforceable and payable after the Guarantee. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, this Section 7.8 shall be for the benefit solely of creditors and representatives of creditors of each Guarantor and not for the benefit of such Guarantor or the holders of any Equity Interest in such Guarantor.

7.9 Release of Guarantors. A Company Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the Capital Stock of such Company Subsidiary Guarantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of to a Person other than a Loan Party in a transaction permitted by this Agreement; provided that the Company Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least five days, or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree, prior to the date of the release, a written notice of such for release identifying the relevant Company Subsidiary Guarantor and the terms of the sale or other disposition in reasonable detail, together with a certification by the Company Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In connection with any such release of a Guarantor, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to the Company Borrower, at the Company Borrower’s expense, all UCC termination statements and other documents that the Company Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

7.10 Right of Contribution. Each Company Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Company Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Company Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Company Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its

-128-

proportionate share of such payment Each Company Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 7.4. The provisions of this Section 7.10 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Company Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Company Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Excluded ECP Guarantor shall have any obligations or liabilities to any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party with respect to Excluded Swap Obligations.

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

SECTION 9 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

9.1 Appointment and Authority.

(a) Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and, except to the extent that any Group Member has any express rights under this Section 9, no Group Member shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

(b) Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Qualified Counterparty and a potential Cash Management Provider) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing

-132-

any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.5 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Section 9 and Section 10, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents and acknowledge and agree that any such action by any Agent shall bind the Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy with respect to any Collateral against the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents, the Specified Swap Agreements or any Specified Cash Management Agreement (including, in each case, the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. In the event of a foreclosure by the Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or a sale of any of the Collateral pursuant to Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, with the consent or at the direction of the Required Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Administrative Agent at such sale.

9.2 Rights as a Lender.

The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings, the Company Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

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

-133-

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law;

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

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

(e) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative 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. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this

-134-

Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as shall be provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

9.5 Delegation of Duties.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 9 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent.

9.6 Resignation and Removal of Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to the approval of the Company Borrower, not to be unreasonably withheld, for so long as no Event of Default set forth under Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(f) has occurred and is continuing, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirement of Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, subject to the approval of the Company Borrower, not to be unreasonably withheld, for so long as no Event of Default set forth under Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(f) has occurred and is continuing, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor

-135-

Administrative Agent is appointed), all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 9 and Section 10.5 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

9.7 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.

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

9.8 No Other Duties, Etc.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Administrative Agent, Joint Bookrunners or Joint Lead Arrangers listed on the cover page hereof, the Amendment No. 1 Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners, the Amendment No. 2 Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners or the Amendment No. 3 Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners ~~or the Amendment No.~~ ~~2 Lead Arrangers and~~ ~~Bookruners~~ shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

9.9 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.8 and 10.5) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

-136-

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.8 and 10.5.

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

9.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

(a) Each of the Lenders (including in its capacities as a potential Qualified Counterparty and a potential Cash Management Provider) irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent (without requirement of notice to or consent of any Lender except as expressly required by Section 10.1): (i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (1) at the time the property subject to such Lien is disposed of or to be disposed of as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Person other than a Loan Party, (2) subject to Section 10.1, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, (3) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee or (4) that constitutes Excluded Assets; (ii) to release or subordinate, as expressly permitted hereunder, any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by this Agreement to the extent required by the holder of, or pursuant to the terms of any agreement governing, the obligations secured by such Liens; and (iii) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder.

(b) Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release (pursuant to clause (a) above) any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee.

(c) At such time as the Loans and the other Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been made) shall have been satisfied by payment in full in immediately available funds and the Commitments have been terminated, the Collateral shall be automatically released from the Liens created by the Security Documents, and the Security Documents and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of the Administrative Agent and each Group Member under the Security Documents shall automatically terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person.

(d) If (i) a Guarantor was released from its obligations under the Guarantee or (ii) the Collateral was released from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Document (or the interest in such item subordinated), the Administrative Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to) execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as

-137-

such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee, the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.10.

(e) If as a result of any transaction not prohibited by this Agreement (i) any Guarantor becomes an Excluded Domestic Subsidiary or a Foreign Subsidiary that is a CFC, then (x) such Guarantor’s Guarantee shall be automatically released, and (y) the Voting Stock of such Guarantor (other than 65% of the total outstanding Voting Stock of a CFC Holdco or Foreign Subsidiary that is a CFC that, in each case, is directly owned by a Borrower or a Guarantor) shall be automatically released from the security interests created by the Loan Documents, or (ii) any CFC Holdco or any Foreign Subsidiary that is a CFC ceases to be directly owned by a Borrower or Guarantor, then the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary shall be automatically released from any security interests created by the Loan Documents. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 9.10(e), the Administrative Agent and any applicable Lender shall promptly execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 9.10(e) shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

9.11 Intercreditor Agreements.

The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement and any such intercreditor agreement is binding upon the Lenders.

Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in any Security Document, no Qualified Counterparty or Cash Management Provider that obtains the benefits of Section 8.4, any Guarantee or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guarantee or any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9 to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Cash Management Obligations and Obligations arising under Specified Swap Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Provider or Qualified Counterparty, as the case may be.

9.12 Withholding Tax Indemnity.

To the extent required by any applicable Requirement of Laws, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender under any Loan Document an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall, within 10 days after written demand therefor, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to Section 2.14 and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or

-138-

otherwise, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.12. The agreements in this Section 9.12 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

9.13 Indemnification.

Each of the Lenders agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers (and their Related Parties), the Amendment No. 1 Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners (and their Related Parties) ~~and~~, the Amendment No. 2 Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners (and their Related Parties) and the Amendment No. 3 Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners (and their Related Parties) in their respective capacities as such (to the extent not reimbursed by any Loan Party and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), according to its Aggregate Exposure Percentage in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 9.13 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, in accordance with its Aggregate Exposure Percentage immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers or their Related Parties, the Amendment No. 1 Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners or their Related Parties or, the Amendment No. 2 Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners or their Related Parties or the Amendment No. 3 Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners or their Related Parties (the foregoing, the “Lender Indemnitees”) in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or any other Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable to any Lender Indemnitee for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent that they are (i) (A) found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Lender Indemnitee, (B) found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from a material breach of the Loan Documents by such Lender Indemnitee, or (C) are disputes that do not involve an act or omission by the Borrower, Holdings or any of their respective Affiliates and that are brought by any Lender Indemnitee against any other Lender Indemnitee (other than in its capacity as Administrative Agent, Joint Lead Arranger, Joint Bookrunner, Amendment No. 1 Lead Arranger and Bookrunner, Amendment No. 2 Lead Arranger and Bookrunner, Amendment No. 3 Lead Arranger and Bookrunner or similar role hereunder) or (ii) settlements entered into by such person without such Lender’s written consent (such consent to not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). The agreements in this Section 9.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(E) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans which may be purchased by the Sponsor or any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate through Dutch Auctions or assigned to the Sponsor or any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate through open market purchases shall in no event exceed, as calculated at the time of the consummation of any aforementioned Purchases or assignments, 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans then outstanding.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 10.6(b)(iv) shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.12 to the contrary.

(v) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 10.6(b)(vii) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption 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, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 10.5).

-149-

(vi) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of (and any stated interest on) the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent 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 and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(vii) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire and applicable Forms (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), together with (x) any processing and recordation fee and (y) any written consent to such assignment required by Section 10.6(b), the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender, Holdings or any Subsidiary of Holdings) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires, subject to Section 10.1(b), the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to clauses (A) and (C) of Section 10.1(a) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 10.6(c)(ii), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 (subject to the requirements of those sections and Sections 2.16 and 2.17, and it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.14(d), (e) and (g) shall be delivered solely to the participating Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.6(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.6(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 10.6(a) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes as the agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the commitment of, 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 to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting

-150-

reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Unless otherwise required by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the IRS. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive and binding 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.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13 or 2.14 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to a greater payment results from a Change in Tax Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in Section 10.6(d) above.

(i) Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in Commitments or Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date and as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment and Assumption that it is a “qualified purchaser” for purposes of Section 2(a)(51) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(j) Each Lender, upon succeeding to an interest in Commitments or Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment and Assumption that it is an Eligible Assignee.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT PROCEDURES FOR OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT.

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Person or entity that opens an account, including any deposit account, treasury management account, loan, other extension of credit, or other financial services product.

-154-

What this means for the Borrower or any Guarantor: When the Borrower or any Guarantor opens an account, if such Borrower or Guarantor is an individual, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will ask for the Borrower’s name, residential address, tax identification number, date of birth, and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to identify the Borrower, and, if the Borrower or such Guarantor is not an individual, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will ask for the Borrower’s name, tax identification number, business address, and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to identify the Borrower. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may also ask, if the Borrower or such Guarantor is an individual, to see the Borrower’s driver’s license or other identifying documents, and, if the Borrower or Guarantor is not an individual, to see the Borrower’s legal organizational documents or other identifying documents.

10.18 Maximum Amount.

(a) It is the intention of the Borrower and the Lenders to conform strictly to the usury and similar laws relating to interest from time to time in force, and all agreements between the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries and the Lenders, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether oral or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no contingency or event whatsoever, whether by acceleration of maturity hereof or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid in the aggregate to the Lenders as interest (whether or not designated as interest, and including any amount otherwise designated but deemed to constitute interest by a court of competent jurisdiction) hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or in any other agreement given to secure the Indebtedness evidenced hereby or other Obligations of the Borrower, or in any other document evidencing, securing or pertaining to the Indebtedness evidenced hereby, exceed the maximum amount permissible under applicable usury or such other laws (the “Maximum Amount”). If under any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provision hereof, or any of the other Loan Documents, at the time performance of such provision shall be due, shall involve exceeding the Maximum Amount, then, ipso facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the Maximum Amount. For the purposes of calculating the actual amount of interest paid and/or payable hereunder in respect of laws pertaining to usury or such other laws, all sums paid or agreed to be paid to the holder hereof for the use, forbearance or detention of the Indebtedness of the Borrower evidenced hereby, outstanding from time to time shall, to the extent permitted by Requirement of Law, be amortized, pro-rated, allocated and spread from the date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Notes until payment in full of all of such Indebtedness, so that the actual rate of interest on account of such Indebtedness is uniform through the term hereof. The terms and provisions of this Section 10.18(a) shall control and supersede every other provision of all agreements between the Borrower or any endorser of the Notes and the Lenders.

(b) If under any circumstances any Lender shall ever receive an amount which would exceed the Maximum Amount, such amount shall be deemed a payment in reduction of the principal amount of the Loans and shall be treated as a voluntary prepayment under Section 2.10 and shall be so applied in accordance with Section 2.12 or if such excessive interest exceeds the unpaid balance of the Loans and any other Indebtedness of the Borrower in favor of such Lender, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment made by mistake and shall be refunded to the Borrower.

10.19 Lender Action. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents (including the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Loan Party, unless expressly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Section 10.18 are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party.

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