(g) If offers are made by two or more Lenders with the same Competitive Bid Margins or Competitive Bid Rates, as the case may be, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect of which such offers are accepted for the related Interest Period, the principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans in respect of which such offers are accepted shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among such Lenders as nearly as possible (in multiples of $1,000,000, as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate) in proportion to the aggregate principal amounts of such offers. Determinations by the Administrative Agent of the amounts of Competitive Bid Loans shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

Section 2.04. Notice to Lenders; Funding of Loans. (a) Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of each such borrowing, specifying the relevant information including such Lender’s portion of such borrowing (if any) and the date on which funds are to be made available.

Unless (i) the Administrative Agent has not received a written Notice of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03(f) or (ii) the Administrative Agent determines that any applicable condition set forth in Article 3 has not been satisfied, the amounts so received by the Administrative Agent shall be made available immediately upon receipt to the Company by wire transfer in Dollars, in immediately available funds, to an account of the Company maintained at a financial institution located in the United States designated by the Company to the Administrative Agent.

If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such share available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Company severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Company until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan for purposes of this Agreement, and the Company shall not be required to repay such amount pursuant to this subsection (c).

(d) The failure of any Lender to make a Loan required to be made by it as part of any borrowing hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of the borrowing.

(e) If any Lender (x) shall fail to make any Loan (the “Failed Loan”) which such Lender is otherwise obligated hereunder to make to the Company on the date of borrowing thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received notice from the Company or such Lender that any condition precedent to the making of the Failed Loan has not been satisfied or (y) is otherwise a Defaulting Lender, then, until such Lender shall have made or be deemed to have made (pursuant to the third to last sentence of this subsection (e)) the Failed Loan in full or the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company or such Lender that any condition precedent to the Failed Loan was not satisfied at the time the Failed Loan was to have been made or is no longer a Defaulting Lender, as applicable, whenever the Administrative Agent shall receive any amount from the Company for the account of such Lender, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.20(c), (i) the amount so received will, upon receipt by the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been paid to the Lender in satisfaction of the obligation for which paid, without actual disbursement of such amount to the Lender, (ii) the Lender will be deemed to have made the same amount available to the Administrative Agent for disbursement as a Loan to the Company up to the amount of any Failed Loan and (iii) the Administrative Agent will, accordingly, disburse such amount (up to the amount of such Failed Loan) to the Company or, if the Administrative Agent has previously made such amount available to the Company on behalf of such Lender pursuant to the provisions hereof, reimburse itself (up to the amount of the amount made available to the Company); provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to disburse any such amount to the Company or otherwise apply it or deem it applied as provided herein unless the Administrative Agent shall have determined in its sole discretion that to so disburse such amount will not violate any law, rule, regulation or requirement applicable to the Administrative Agent. Upon any such disbursement by the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Company in satisfaction, to the extent thereof, of such Lender’s obligation to make the Failed Loan. In the event any amounts remain after application pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.04(e), such amounts shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.20(c) hereto. If and during the time that a Failed Loan shall exist, the Company shall have the right to terminate in full the Commitment of the Lender causing such Failed Loan as provided in Section 9.01(a).

The Interest Period of any Base Rate Loan or Eurodollar Loan converted to a Fixed Rate Loan pursuant to clause (i) above shall commence on the date of such conversion. The succeeding Interest Period of any Fixed Rate Loan continued pursuant to clause (ii) above shall commence on the last day of the Interest Period of the Loan so continued. Eurodollar Loans may only be converted on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto or on the date required pursuant to Section 8.02.

A written Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be executed by an officer or a Designated Representative, shall be in substantially the form attached as Exhibit G and shall specify: (i) the proposed conversion/continuation date (which shall be a Eurodollar Business Day in the case of a Eurodollar Loan or a Domestic Business Day in the case of a Base Rate Loan), (ii) the aggregate amount of the Loans being converted/continued, (iii) an election between the Base Rate and the Eurodollar Rate and (iv) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of Eurodollar Loans, the requested Interest Period.

If no timely Notice of Conversion/Continuation is delivered by the Company as to any Eurodollar Loan and such Loan is not repaid by the Company at the end of the applicable Interest Period, such Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan.

Section 2.06. Loan Accounts and Notes. (a) Except as provided in subsection (b) below, the Loans of each Lender shall be evidenced by a loan account in the Company’s name maintained by such Lender and the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. Such loan account maintained by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Loan made by such Lender to the Company, the interest accrued and payable thereon and all interest and principal payments made thereon. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall in no way limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Company hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans.

(b) Upon written request made to the Syndication Agent by a Lender, the Company shall deliver to the Syndication Agent for such Lender a single Committed Note and a single Competitive Bid Note, if applicable, evidencing the Committed Loans and the Competitive Bid Loans, respectively, of such requesting Lender, payable to the order of each such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office. Each such Note shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit H-1 or H-2 hereto, as appropriate.

Such Lender shall record the date and amount of each Loan made by it and the date and amount of each payment of principal made by the Company with respect thereto, and may, if such Lender so elects in connection with any transfer or enforcement of its Notes, endorse on the schedule forming a part thereof appropriate notations to evidence the foregoing information with respect to each such Loan then outstanding; provided that the failure of any Lender that has requested a Note or Notes to make any such recordation or endorsement shall not affect the obligations of the Company hereunder or under the Note(s). Each Lender that receives a Note or Notes from the Company is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Company to so endorse its Note(s) and to attach to and make a part of its Note(s) a continuation of any such schedule as and when required.

Section 2.07. Payment of Principal. (a) Each Committed Loan shall fall due and be paid as to principal (i) on the Commitment Termination Date and (ii) on any date that the aggregate Total Usage of all Lenders then outstanding exceeds Total Commitments, but ratably only to the extent of such excess.

(b) Each Competitive Bid Loan shall fall due and be paid as to principal on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan.

(c) Each Swing Line Loan shall fall due and be paid as to principal on the earlier of the Commitment Termination Date and the tenth Domestic Business Day after such Loan is made.

Section 2.08. Interest. Payment of interest on the Loans shall be in accordance with the following:

(a) Interest shall, subject to any decrease or increase pursuant to clause (d) of this Section 2.08, accrue (y) on each Base Rate Loan (including each Swing Line Loan) for each day at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for such day and (z) on each Eurodollar Loan for each day during each period commencing on the first day of an Interest Period therefor to but excluding the last day of such Interest Period, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Eurodollar Margin for such day, all as selected and specified in a notice to the Administrative Agent furnished pursuant to Section 2.02, Section 2.05 or Section 2.16; provided that:

(i) each selection by the Company as between the Base Rate and the Eurodollar Rate shall be made, as among the Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments, except as variation from such pro-rationing may be required by virtue of suspension as to a particular Lender of its Commitment to make Eurodollar Loans, as contemplated by Section 8.02(a); and

(ii) subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.08 there may be outstanding hereunder at the same time Committed Loans (or portions thereof) which are Base Rate Loans and other Committed Loans (or portions thereof) which are Eurodollar Loans.

(b) If requested to do so by the Company, through the Administrative Agent, at least six Eurodollar Business Days before the beginning of any Interest Period applicable to a Eurodollar Loan, each Lender will advise the Company, through the Administrative Agent, before 10:00 a.m. (New York time) four Eurodollar Business Days preceding the beginning of such Interest Period, as to whether such Lender consents to the selection by the Company of a duration of twelve months for such Interest Period. If, but only if, all of the Lenders so consent, the Company shall be entitled to select a duration of twelve months for such Interest Period pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.05.

(c) Interest accrued on a Base Rate Loan (other than Swing Line Loans) shall be paid on each Quarterly Date and on the Commitment Termination Date (or earlier date of termination of the Commitments in their entirety). Interest accrued on a Eurodollar Loan shall be paid (i) on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan, (ii) in the case of a Eurodollar Loan with an Interest Period of more than three months, at intervals of three months from the first day of such Interest Period and (iii) on the date of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.09 or conversion pursuant to Section 8.02 (but only to the extent accrued with respect to the amount being prepaid or converted). Interest accrued on a Competitive Bid Loan shall be paid on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan, the date of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.09 or conversion pursuant to Section 8.02 or as provided in the Competitive Bid Quote Request for such Loan. Interest accrued on a Swing Line Loan shall be paid on the day that such Swing Line Loan is required to be repaid and on the date of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.09.

(d) The Eurodollar Margin shall be determined by reference to the senior unsecured long-term debt ratings of the Company by S&P and Xxxxx’x, as specified on Schedule II hereto. Any change in the Eurodollar Margin shall become effective on the day on which such a Rating Agency shall publicly announce a change in such rating.

(e) Subject to Section 8.02, each Competitive Bid Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period (determined as if the Competitive Bid Eurodollar Loan were a Eurodollar Loan) plus (or minus) the Competitive Bid Margin quoted by the

Lender making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.03. Each Competitive Bid Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for the Interest Period applicable thereto, at a rate per annum equal to the Competitive Bid Rate quoted by the Lender making such Loan in accordance with Section 2.03.

(f) Interest on past-due principal and interest shall accrue at the Post-Default Rate during the period from and including the due date thereof to but excluding the date that such amount is paid and shall be payable on demand.

(g) The Administrative Agent shall determine, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, each Base Rate and Eurodollar Rate applicable to the Loans hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Company and the Lenders of each rate of interest so determined, and its determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(h) Interest on Fixed Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed, calculated as to each Interest Period (or period ending on a repayment date or date of conversion to a Eurodollar Loan or prepayment date selected pursuant to Section 2.09 or required pursuant to Section 8.02) from and including the first day thereof to but excluding the last day thereof. Interest on Base Rate Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and paid for the actual number of days elapsed, calculated from and including the date of such Base Rate Loan to but excluding the date of repayment or conversion of such Loan to a Fixed Rate Loan.

Section 2.09. Optional Prepayments. (a) The Company may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:30 a.m. (New York time) on the date of such prepayment, prepay Base Rate Loans, Swing Line Loans, or any Competitive Bid Loan bearing interest at the Base Rate pursuant to Section 8.02, in each case without penalty or premium, in whole at any time, or from time to time in part in amounts aggregating (other than in the case of Swing Line Loans) not less than $10,000,000.

(b) Subject to Section 2.14, the Company may, upon at least three Eurodollar Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay Eurodollar Loans, in whole at any time, or from time to time in part in amounts aggregating not less than $10,000,000, by paying the principal amount to be prepaid together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment.

(c) Except as provided in subsection (a) above, the Company may not prepay all or any portion of the principal amount of any Competitive Bid Loan prior to the maturity thereof.

(d) Upon receipt of a notice of prepayment, the Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the contents thereof and the amount of such Lender’s Loans being prepaid pursuant thereto.

Section 2.10. General Provisions as to Payments. (a) All payments by the Company of principal, interest, Facility Fee and other charges under this Agreement shall be made not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date when due, in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction, to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.02. If a Fed-Wire reference or tracer number for any such payment has been received, from the Company or otherwise, by the Administrative Agent by that time the Company will not be penalized for a payment received after 2:00 p.m. (New York time). The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its ratable share of each such payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Base Rate Loans, the Competitive Bid Rate Loans or of the Facility Fee or any other amounts payable to the Lenders hereunder shall be due on a day which is not a Domestic Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Domestic Business Day. Whenever any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Eurodollar Loans or the Competitive Bid Eurodollar Loans shall be due on a day which is not a Eurodollar Business Day, the date for payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Eurodollar Business Day unless such Eurodollar Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case the date for payment thereof shall be the next preceding Eurodollar Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time.

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

Section 2.11. Fees. (a) Commencing on the Effective Date, the Company agrees to pay to the Lenders a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) on the daily actual aggregate amount of the Facility Fee Base at a rate per annum determined by reference to the senior unsecured long-term debt ratings of the Company by S&P and Xxxxx’x, as specified on Schedule II hereto. Any change in the Facility Fee

shall become effective on the day on which such a Rating Agency publicly announces a change in such rating. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Facility Fees in respect of the Facility Fee Base, as defined below, of any Lender shall cease to accrue, and accrued but unpaid Facility Fees shall be payable, on the date (if any) on which such Lender’s Facility Fee Base is reduced to zero pursuant hereto. For this purpose the “Facility Fee Base” is the aggregate amount of the Credit Exposures; provided that following termination of the Commitments, the Facility Fee Base at any date shall not include any principal amounts bearing interest at such date at the Post Default Rate.

(b) The Company shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders a Letter of Credit fee accruing daily on the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Margin for such day and (ii) to each Issuing Lender for its own account a letter of credit fronting fee accruing daily on the aggregate amount then available for drawing under all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender at such rate per annum as may be mutually agreed between the Company and such Issuing Lender from time to time.

(c) Fees payable pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be determined as follows: (i) Facility Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) for the actual number of days elapsed and (ii) Letter of Credit fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed. All such fees shall be payable in arrears on each Quarterly Date during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date the Facility Fee Base is reduced to zero and on the date the Facility Fee Base is reduced to zero and shall be paid by the Company to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders.

Section 2.12. Reduction or Termination of Commitments. The Company shall have the right at any time or from time to time, upon not less than three Domestic Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Commitments of the Lenders, in whole or in part, provided that each partial termination shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $25,000,000 and a multiple of $5,000,000, and shall reduce the Commitments of the applicable Lenders proportionately (the Commitment Schedule shall be deemed to be amended to reflect the reduction in such Commitments); and provided further that after giving effect to any such termination or reduction and any prepayment or repayment of the Loans on or before the effective date thereof, the Total Usage of each Lender shall not exceed its Commitment as so reduced (or shall be zero in the case of the termination of the Commitments). The Administrative Agent shall give prompt written notice to each Lender of each such reduction or termination. The Commitment of a Lender may also be terminated under the provisions of Section 9.01(a).

Section 2.13. Lending Offices. Each Loan shall be made and maintained by the Applicable Lending Office of each respective Lender. Subject to the provisions of Sections 8.01, 8.02 and 9.08(d), each Lender may transfer any Loan to or designate a different office of itself or any subsidiary or affiliate and such office shall thereupon become an Applicable Lending Office.

Section 2.14. Reimbursement. The Company shall reimburse each Lender for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses, including the cost of any liquidation and redeployment of funds borrowed by such Lender (but excluding loss of margin for the period after any payment, conversion or failure to borrow, convert or continue as described herein), in the event that the Company makes any payment of principal with respect to, or converts, any Fixed Rate Loan on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (pursuant to Section 2.09 or otherwise) or any borrowing, conversion, continuation or prepayment notified to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03, 2.05 or 2.09(b) relative to Fixed Rate Loans shall not be consummated because of the Company’s failure to satisfy one or more of the applicable conditions precedent in Article 3 or because the Company fails to borrow, convert, continue or prepay at the specified time. Any Lender requesting reimbursement from the Company for such costs and expenses pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall provide the Company through the Administrative Agent with the calculation of the amount of such costs and expenses in reasonable detail.

Section 2.15. Letters of Credit.

(a) Commitment to Issue Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and so long as no Stop Issuance Notice is in effect, each Issuing Lender in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.15 agrees to issue Letters of Credit from time to time before the Letter of Credit Termination Date upon the request of the Company; provided that (i) immediately after each Letter of Credit is issued (x) the Total Usage of all Lenders shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments, (y) the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Liabilities of all Lenders shall not exceed $300,000,000 and (z) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender of such Letters of Credit shall not exceed $100,000,000 and (ii) each such Letter of Credit shall only back performance of non-financial or commercial contracts or undertakings of the Company and its Subsidiaries of the type which qualify for a 50% conversion factor for purposes of risk-based capital adequacy regulations applicable to the Lenders from time to time. Upon the date of issuance by an Issuing Lender of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have sold to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have purchased from the Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit and the related Letter of Credit Liabilities in the proportion its respective Commitment bears to the aggregate Commitments. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to

acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(b) Method for Issuance; Terms; Extensions.

(i) The Company shall give the Issuing Lender selected by it notice at least three Domestic Business Days (or such shorter notice as may be acceptable to the Issuing Lender in its discretion) prior to the requested date of issuance or extension of a Letter of Credit specifying the date such Letter of Credit is to be issued or extended, and describing the terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions to be supported thereby in reasonable detail (such notice, a “Notice of Issuance”). Upon receipt of a Notice of Issuance, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the contents thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s participation in such Letter of Credit.

(ii) The obligation of the Issuing Lender to issue each Letter of Credit shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.02, be subject to the conditions precedent that such Letter of Credit shall be in such form and contain such terms as shall be satisfactory to the Issuing Lender and the Company. The Company shall also pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account issuance, drawing, amendment and extension charges in the amounts and at the times as agreed between the Company and the Issuing Lender.

(iii) The renewal of any Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be an issuance of such Letter of Credit, and if any Letter of Credit contains a provision pursuant to which it is deemed to be renewed unless notice of termination is given by the Issuing Lender, the Issuing Lender shall give such notice of termination if and only if (x) the Issuing Lender is so instructed by the Company in writing not less than three Domestic Business Days prior to the deadline for doing so, (y) a Stop Issuance Notice is in effect or (z) the extended term of such Letter of Credit would end after the Letter of Credit Termination Date. No Letter of Credit shall have a term extending or extendible beyond the Letter of Credit Termination Date.

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and each other Lender as to the amount to be paid as a result of such demand or drawing and the date such payment is to be made by the Issuing Lender (the “Payment Date”). Subject to subsection (d)(vi) below, the Company shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any amounts paid by the Issuing Lender upon any drawing under any Letter of Credit, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind. Such reimbursement shall be due from the Company on the date of receipt by it of notice from the Issuing Lender of its obligation to make such payment (or, if such notice is received by the Company after 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on any date, on the next succeeding Domestic Business Day); and provided further that if and to the extent any such reimbursement is not made by the Company in accordance with this clause (i) or clause (ii) on the Payment Date, then (irrespective of when notice thereof is received by the Company), such reimbursement obligation shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day from and including the Payment Date to but not including the date such reimbursement obligation is paid in full at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans for such day.

(ii) All such amounts paid by the Issuing Lender and remaining unpaid by the Company (a “Reimbursement Obligation”) shall, if and to the extent that the amount of such Reimbursement Obligation would be permitted as a Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.01, and unless the Company otherwise instructs the Administrative Agent by not less than one Domestic Business Day’s prior notice, convert automatically to Base Rate Loans on the date such Reimbursement Obligation arises. The Administrative Agent shall, on behalf of the Company (which hereby irrevocably directs the Administrative Agent so to act on its behalf), give notice no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on such date requesting each Lender to make, and each Lender hereby agrees to make, a Base Rate Loan, in an amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the Reimbursement Obligation with respect to which such notice relates. Each Lender shall make such Loan available to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 9.02 in immediately available funds, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time), on the date specified in such notice. The Administrative Agent shall pay the proceeds of such Loans to the Issuing Lender, which shall immediately apply such proceeds to repay the Reimbursement Obligation.

(iii) To the extent the Reimbursement Obligation is not refinanced by a Lender pursuant to clause (ii) above, subject to subsection (d)(vi) below, such Lender will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, immediately upon the Issuing Lender’s

demand at any time during the period commencing after such Reimbursement Obligation arises until reimbursement therefor in full by the Company, an amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of such Reimbursement Obligation, together with interest on such amount for each day from the date of the Issuing Lender’s demand for such payment (or, if such demand is made after 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on such date, from the next succeeding Domestic Business Day) to the date of payment by such Lender of such amount at a rate of interest per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate for the first three Domestic Business Days after the date of such demand and thereafter at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate for each additional day. The Issuing Lender will pay to each Lender ratably all amounts received from the Company for application in payment of its Reimbursement Obligations in respect of any Letter of Credit, but only to the extent such Lender has made payment to the Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit pursuant hereto.

(iv) In the event that any payment of any Reimbursement Obligation by the Company to any Issuing Lender is required to be returned to the Company (x) if and to the extent the Lenders shall have previously funded their participations in such Reimbursement Obligation pursuant to clause (iii) above, each Lender shall return to the Issuing Lender any portion of such payment previously distributed to it by the Issuing Lender and (y) if and to the extent the Lenders shall not have previously funded such Reimbursement Obligation, the Lenders obligations under clause (iii) above shall apply as if such Reimbursement Obligation were due but not paid at such time.

(v) To the extent there is a conflict between this Agreement and any Issuing Lender’s application, reimbursement agreement or related document or agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.

(d) Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Company and each Lender under subsection (c) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto;

(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of this Agreement or any Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto;

(iii) the use which may be made of the Letter of Credit by, or any acts or omission of, a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom the beneficiary may be acting);

(iv) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other rights that the Company may have at any time against a beneficiary of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom the beneficiary may be acting), any Lender (including the Issuing Lender) or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement or the Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto or any unrelated transaction;

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

(vi) payment under a Letter of Credit against presentation to the Issuing Lender of documents that do not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; provided, that the Issuing Lender’s determination that documents presented under such Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender; or

(vii) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by any Lender (including the Issuing Lender), the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this subsection (vii), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to the Company’s or the Lender’s obligations hereunder.

(e) Indemnification; Expenses.

(i) Company hereby indemnifies and holds harmless each Lender (including each Issuing Lender) and the Administrative Agent from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur in connection with a Letter of Credit issued pursuant to this Section 2.15 (including any Letter of Credit which may be issued that does not meet the requirements of Section 2.15(a)(ii)); provided that the Company shall not be required to indemnify any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses, to the extent the same has been caused by (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person or (B) the Issuing Lender’s failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of documents strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. This section shall not apply to any Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes or Excluded Taxes, which shall be covered solely by Section 8.03.

(ii) None of the Lenders (including an Issuing Lender) nor the Administrative Agent and their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable or responsible, by reason of or in connection with the execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Letter of Credit, including without limitation any of the circumstances enumerated in Section 2.15(d) above; provided that, notwithstanding Section 2.15(d), the Company shall have a claim for direct (but not consequential, punitive or any other indirect) damage suffered by it, to the extent caused by (x) subject to the immediately following sentence, the Issuing Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit complied with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (y) the Issuing Lender’s failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of documents strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit. The parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(iii) Nothing in this subsection (e) is intended to limit the obligations of the Company under any other provision of this Agreement. To the extent the Company does not indemnify an Issuing Lender as required by this subsection, the Lenders agree to do so ratably in accordance with their Commitments.

(f) Defaulting Lenders. This Section 2.15 shall be subject to the applicable provisions of Section 2.20 in the event any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.16. Swing Line Loans.

(a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, and so long as no Stop Issuance Notice is in effect, each Swing Line Lender agrees to make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Company from time to time on a pro rata basis on any Domestic Business Day until the Commitment Termination Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit and, as to each Swing Line Lender, not to exceed the Swing Line Lender Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the pro rata share of the

outstanding amount of Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Commitment; provided that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, the Total Usage for all Lenders at such time shall not exceed the Total Commitments at such time; provided further that the Company shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Company may borrow under this Section 2.16, prepay under Section 2.09 and reborrow under this Section 2.16. Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

(b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Company’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the requested borrowing date or such later time on the requested borrowing date as may be approved by the Swing Line Lender in its sole discretion, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Domestic Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Notice of Swing Line Borrowing, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Notice of Swing Line Borrowing, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Notice of Swing Line Borrowing and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the provisos to the first sentence of Section 2.16(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3.02 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on the borrowing date specified in such Notice of Swing Line Borrowing, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan, on a pro rata basis, available to the Company.

(i) The Swing Line Lender may request, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, and shall request on or prior to the tenth Domestic Business Day after any Swing Line Loan is made, on behalf of the Company (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Lender make a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s pro rata share of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Notice of Swing Line Borrowing for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02(a) as if it were a Base Rate Loan, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Facility and the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Company with a copy of the applicable Notice of Swing Line Borrowing promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its pro rata share of the amount specified in such Notice of Swing Line Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day specified in such Notice of Swing Line Borrowing, whereupon, subject to Section 2.16(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Company in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a borrowing of Loans in accordance with Section 2.16(c)(i), the request for Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.16(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.16(c) by the time specified in Section 2.16(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.16(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Company or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (C) non-compliance with the conditions set forth in Section 3.02, or (D) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. No such purchase or funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Company to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Percentage of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender’s risk participation was funded) in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) In the event that any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender to the Company (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause (ii) shall survive the payment in full of all of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Company for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Lender funds its Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.16 to refinance such Lender’s Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect thereof shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Company shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender.

(g) Defaulting Lenders. This Section 2.16 shall be subject to the applicable provisions of Section 2.20 in the event any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.17. Stop Issuance Notice. If the Required Lenders determine at any time that the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 would not be satisfied in respect of a Borrowing at such time, then the Required Lenders may request that the Administrative Agent issue a “Stop Issuance Notice”, and the Administrative Agent shall issue such notice to each Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender. Such Stop Issuance Notice shall be withdrawn upon a determination by the Required Lenders that the circumstances giving rise thereto no longer exist. No Letter of Credit shall be issued and no Swing Line Loan shall be made while a Stop Issuance Notice is in effect. The Required Lenders may request issuance of a Stop Issuance Notice only if there is a reasonable basis therefor, and shall consider reasonably and in good faith a request from the Company for withdrawal of the same on the basis that the conditions in Section 3.02 are satisfied; provided that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Swing Line Lender may and shall conclusively rely on any Stop Issuance Notice while it remains in effect. The absence of a Stop Issuance Notice at any time shall not affect the rights and obligations of the parties hereto at any time that the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 would not be satisfied in respect of a Borrowing at such time or create any implication that such conditions would be satisfied at such time.

Section 2.18. Extension Option. (a) So long as at the time no Default shall exist, the Commitment Termination Date may be extended in the manner set forth in this Section 2.18 for a period of one year from the Commitment Termination Date then in effect; provided that the Commitment Termination Date may only be so extended once per year. If the Company wishes to request an extension of the Commitment Termination Date, the Company shall give written notice to that effect to the Administrative Agent not less than 45 days nor more than 90 days prior to each anniversary of the Closing Date that occurs prior to the Commitment Termination Date then in effect, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each of the Lenders of such request. Each Lender will use its best efforts to respond to such request, whether affirmatively or negatively, as it may elect in its sole discretion, within 30 days of such notice from the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall not have responded affirmatively within such 30-day period, such Lender shall be deemed to have rejected the Company’s proposal to extend such Lender’s Commitment and only the Commitments of those Lenders which have responded affirmatively shall be extended, subject to receipt by the Administrative Agent of counterparts of an Extension Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit L hereto (the “Extension Agreement”) duly completed and signed by the Company, the

Administrative Agent and all of the Lenders that have responded affirmatively. No extension of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be legally binding on any party hereto unless and until such Extension Agreement is so executed and delivered by Lenders having more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments.

(b) If any Lender rejects, or is deemed to have rejected, the Company’s proposal to extend such Lender’s Commitment, (A) subject to (B) below, this Agreement shall terminate on the Commitment Termination Date then in effect with respect to such Lender, and the Company shall pay to such Lender on such Commitment Termination Date any amounts due and payable to such Lender on such date and (B) the Company may, if it so elects, require any Lender that does not elect to extend its Commitment to assign its Commitment in its entirety to one or more Eligible Assignees pursuant to Section 9.01(b) which Eligible Assignees will agree to the extension of the Commitment Termination Date. On the date of termination of any Lender’s Commitment as contemplated by clause (A) of the first sentence of this subsection (b), the respective participations of the other Lenders in all outstanding Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall be redetermined on the basis of their respective Commitments after giving effect to such termination and, if applicable, any assignment pursuant to clause (B) of the first sentence of this subsection (b), and the participation therein of the Lender whose Commitment is terminated shall terminate; provided that the Company shall, if and to the extent necessary to permit such redetermination of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans within the limits of the Commitments which are not terminated, prepay on such date a portion of the outstanding Loans, and such redetermination and termination of participations in outstanding Letters of Credit shall be conditioned upon its having done so.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the effectiveness of each extension of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.18.

Section 2.19. Increased Commitments; Additional Lenders.

(a) From time to time the Company may, upon at least thirty Domestic Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly provide a copy of such notice to the Lenders), increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments by an amount up to $500,000,000 in the aggregate for all increases made pursuant to this Section 2.19 (the amount of any such increase, the “Increased Commitments”).

(b) To effect such an increase, the Company may designate one or more of (x) the existing Lenders or (y) other financial institutions reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Swing Line Lenders, in each case, which at the time agree to (i) in the case of any such lender that is an existing Lender, increase its Commitment (an “Increasing Lender”) and (ii) in the case of any other such lender (an “Additional Lender”), become a party to this Agreement with a Commitment of not less than $10,000,000; it being understood that no existing Lender shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment.

(c) Any increase in the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in the first sentence of Section 3.02(a).

(d) An increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall become effective upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent signed by the Company, by each Additional Lender and by each other Lender whose Commitment is to be increased, setting forth the new Commitments of such Lenders and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof, (ii) such evidence of appropriate corporate authorization on the part of the Company with respect to the Increased Commitments and such opinions of counsel for the Company with respect to the Increased Commitments as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

(e) On the effective date of any increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19, (i) each Additional Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to its pro rata share of the aggregate outstanding Loans (and funded participations, if any, in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans) and (ii) any Increasing Lender whose Commitment has been increased shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the increase in its pro rata share of the aggregate outstanding Committed Loans (and funded participations as above), in each case such payments shall be for the account of each other Lender. Upon receipt of such amount by the Administrative Agent, (A) each other Lender shall be deemed to have ratably assigned that portion of its outstanding Committed Loans (and funded participations, if any, in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans) that is being reduced to the Additional Lenders and the Increasing Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s new Commitment or the increased portion thereof as applicable, (B) the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each other Lender its ratable share of the amounts received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this paragraph and (C) the participations of the Lenders in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall be determined in accordance with their Commitments after giving effect to such increase.

Section 2.20. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) Fees shall cease to accrue on the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender under Section 2.11, including with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities;

(b) The Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.07);

(c) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.20(d), any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 6 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.06), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders or Swing Line Lenders hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by any Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Company may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists) to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or Swing Line Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Lenders or Swing Line Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Company as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Company against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.01 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(d) If any Swing Line Obligations or Letter of Credit Obligations exist at the time any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of the Swing Line Obligations and Letter of Credit Liabilities of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages but only to the extent (A) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at such time and (B) that the Total Usage for each non-Defaulting Lender does not exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially be effected, the Company shall within one Domestic Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata share of all Swing Line Obligations and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Lender only the Company’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above and any cash collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.20(c)) (the “Collateralized Amount”) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6.02 for so long as such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities are outstanding;

(iii) if such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities are reallocated to the non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and 2.11(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Percentages; and

(iv) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lenders or any other Lender hereunder, all facility fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such Letter of Credit Liabilities) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.11(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders until and to the extent that such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities are reallocated and/or cash collateralized.

(e) So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing Line Lenders shall not be required to fund such portion of any Swing Line Loan and the Issuing Lenders shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless they are satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Company in accordance with Section 2.20(b), and participating interests in any newly made Swing Line Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.20(b) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

(f) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Company, the Swing Line Lenders and the Issuing Lenders each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Obligations and Letter of Credit Liabilities of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing Line Loans and Competitive Bid Rate Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Percentage, and such Lender shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided, however, 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 having been a Defaulting Lender.

(g) The Collateralized Amount (or the appropriate portion thereof) shall no longer be required to be held as cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.20(d)(ii), and shall be released to the Company, following (i) the elimination of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Liabilities (including pursuant to Section 2.20(e) or Section 9.01), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender that there exists excess cash collateral.

The Company will pay and discharge, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to pay and discharge, all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon it or upon its income or profits, or upon any property belonging to it, prior to the date on which penalties attach thereto, and all lawful material claims which, if unpaid, might become a Lien upon the property of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary; provided that neither the Company nor any such Restricted Subsidiary shall be required to pay any such tax, assessment, charge, levy or claim (i) the payment of which is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings, (ii) not yet delinquent or (iii) the non-payment of which, if taken in the aggregate, would not be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.03. Insurance. The Company will maintain, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to maintain, insurance from responsible companies in such amounts and against such risks as is customarily carried by owners of similar businesses and properties in the same general areas in which the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary operates or, to the customary extent, self-insurance.

Section 5.04. Maintenance of Existence. The Company will preserve and maintain, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to preserve and maintain, its corporate existence and all of its rights, privileges and franchises necessary or desirable in the normal conduct of its business, and conduct its business in an orderly, efficient and regular manner. Nothing herein contained shall prevent the termination of the business or corporate existence of any Subsidiary which in the judgment of the Company is no longer necessary or desirable, a merger or consolidation of a Subsidiary into or with the Company (if the Company is the surviving corporation) or another Subsidiary or any merger, consolidation or transfer of assets permitted by Section 5.07, as long as immediately after giving effect to any such transaction, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

Section 5.05. Maintenance of Properties. The Company will keep, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to keep, all of its properties necessary, in the judgment of the Company, in its business in good working order and condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Nothing in this Section 5.05 shall prevent the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary from discontinuing the operation or maintenance, or both the operation and maintenance, of any properties of the Company or any such Restricted Subsidiary if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Company (or such Restricted Subsidiary), desirable in the conduct of its business.

Section 5.06. Compliance with Laws. The Company will comply, and will cause each Restricted Subsidiary to comply, with the requirements of all applicable laws, rules, regulations, and orders of any Governmental Authority, a breach of which would be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, except where contested in good faith and by proper proceedings.

Section 5.07. Mergers, Consolidations and Sales of Assets. (a) The Company shall not consolidate with or merge into any other Person or convey or transfer its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, unless:

(i) the Company or another solvent corporation that is incorporated under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia is the surviving corporation of any such consolidation or merger or is the Person that acquires by conveyance or transfer the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety;

(ii) if a Person other than the Company is the surviving corporation as described in subsection (i) above or is the Person that acquires the property and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety, it shall expressly assume the performance of every covenant of this Agreement and of the Notes on the part of the Company, as the case may be, to be performed or observed;

(iii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(iv) if the Company is not the surviving corporation, the Company has delivered to the Syndication Agent an Officer’s Certificate and a legal opinion of its General Counsel, Associate General Counsel or Assistant General Counsel, upon the express instruction of the Company for the benefit of the Syndication Agent and the Lenders, each stating that such transaction complies with this Section and that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with.

(b) Upon any consolidation by the Company with, or merger by the Company into, any corporation described in Section 5.07(a)(i) or any conveyance or transfer of the properties and assets of the Company substantially as an entirety to any corporation described in Section 5.07(a)(i), such corporation into which the Company is merged or consolidated or to which such conveyance or transfer is made shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of the Company, under this Agreement with the same effect as if such corporation had been named as the Company, herein, and thereafter, in the case of a transfer or conveyance permitted by Section 5.07(a), the Company, shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under this Agreement and the Notes.

Section 5.08. Limitation on Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create or suffer to exist any Lien upon any of its assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, securing any Debt; provided, however, that the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to:

(a) Liens on any assets owned by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary existing at the date of this Agreement;

(b) Liens on assets of a corporation or other entity existing at the time such corporation or other entity is merged into or consolidated with the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (to the extent applicable, in accordance with Section 5.07) or at the time of a purchase, lease or other acquisition of the assets of a corporation or other entity as an entirety or substantially as an entirety by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, whether or not any indebtedness secured by such Liens is assumed by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary;

(c) Liens on assets of a corporation or other entity existing at the time such corporation or other entity becomes a Restricted Subsidiary;

(d) Liens securing Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary owing to the Company or to another Restricted Subsidiary;

(e) materialmen’s, suppliers’, tax or other similar Liens arising in the ordinary course of business securing obligations which are not overdue or are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings; and Liens arising by operation of law in favor of any lender to the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business constituting a banker’s lien or right of offset in moneys of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary deposited with such lender in the ordinary course of business;

(f) Liens on assets existing at the time of acquisition of such assets by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, or Liens to secure the payment of all or any part of the purchase price of assets upon the acquisition of such assets by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or to secure any Debt incurred or guaranteed by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary prior to, at the time of, or within one year after the later of the acquisition, completion of construction (including any improvements on an existing asset) or commencement of full operation of such asset, which Debt is incurred or guaranteed for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof or construction or improvements thereon, and which Debt may be in the form of obligations incurred in connection with industrial revenue bonds or similar financings and letters of credit issued in connection therewith; provided, however, that in the case of any such acquisition, construction or improvement the Lien shall not apply to any asset theretofore owned by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, other than, in the case of any such construction or improvement, any theretofore unimproved real property on which the property so constructed or the improvement made is located;

(g) Liens in favor of any customer (including any Governmental Authority) to secure partial, progress, advance or other payments or performance pursuant to any contract or statute or to secure any related indebtedness or to secure Debt guaranteed by a Governmental Authority;

(h) Liens on cash or certificates of deposit or other bank obligations in an amount substantially equal in value (at the time such Liens are created) to, and securing, indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount not in excess of $300,000,000 (or the equivalent amount in a different currency);

(i) Liens equally and ratably securing the Loans and such Debt; provided that the Required Lenders may, in their sole discretion, refuse to take any Lien on any asset (which refusal will not limit the Company’s or any Restricted Subsidiary’s ability to incur a Lien otherwise permitted by this Section 5.08(i)); such Lien may equally and ratably secure the Loans and any other obligation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, other than an obligation that is subordinated to the Loans;

(j) any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements) in whole or in part of any Lien referred to in the foregoing; provided, however, that the principal amount of Debt secured thereby shall not exceed the principal amount of Debt so secured at the time of such extension, renewal or replacement, and that such extension, renewal or replacement shall be limited to all or part of the asset which secured the Lien so extended, renewed or replaced (plus improvements and construction on such asset);

(k) Liens arising out of the posting of cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.20(d)(ii) or Section 6.02; and

(l) Liens securing Debt in an aggregate amount that, together with all other Debt of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries that is secured by Liens not otherwise permitted under subsections (a) through (j) above (if originally issued, assumed or guaranteed at such time), does not at the time exceed the greater of 10% of Stockholders’ Equity as of the end of the fiscal quarter preceding the date of determination or $1,000,000,000. For purpose of this Section 5.08(k), the term “Consolidated Subsidiaries” in the definition of Stockholders’ Equity includes any Exempt Subsidiaries.

This covenant shall not apply to any “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U in excess of 25% in value of the assets covered by this covenant. For the avoidance of doubt, the creation of a security interest arising solely as a result of, or the filing of UCC financing statements in connection with, any sale by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of accounts receivable not prohibited by Section 5.07 shall not constitute a Lien prohibited by this covenant.

Section 5.09. Leverage Ratio. The Company will not permit, as of the last Sunday of each March, June and September and as of the last day of each December, the ratio of (a) Debt to (b) the sum of Debt and Stockholders’ Equity, each, on a consolidated basis to exceed 65.0%. For purposes of this Section 5.09, (i) the term “Consolidated Subsidiaries” in the definitions of Debt and Stockholders’ Equity includes any Exempt Subsidiaries, and (ii) Debt will exclude up to (x) $150,000,000 of Debt of the Consolidated Subsidiaries in the aggregate and (y) $500,000,000 of Debt consisting of guarantees.

Section 5.10. Use of Facility. (a) The Company will use the Letters of Credit and the proceeds of the Loans for any lawful corporate purposes.

(b) The Company and its Subsidiaries will not use, and the Company shall use its best efforts to ensure that the directors, officers, employees, and agents of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not use, directly, or to the knowledge of any Responsible Officer of the Company indirectly, the Letters of Credit or the proceeds of any Loans (A) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws or (B) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country except to the extent licensed or otherwise authorized under U.S. law.

Section 6.02. Cash Cover. The Company agrees, in addition to the provisions of Section 6.01 hereof, that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, it shall, if requested by the Syndication Agent upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, pay to the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds (which funds shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Cash Collateral Account as described below) equal to the aggregate amount available for drawing under all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time (the “Available Amount”); provided that in the event of (A) the filing by the Company of a petition or (B) an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Company, under the federal bankruptcy laws as now or hereafter in effect, the Company shall pay such amount forthwith without any notice or demand or any other act by the Syndication Agent or the Lenders.

Upon receipt of notice requiring the Company to deposit cash pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Company shall deposit an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Available Amount to be held by the Administrative Agent in a special account denominated the “Cash Collateral Account”. If any provision of any debt instrument or other agreement or instrument binding upon the Company would be contravened by any such deposit, the Company shall either (x) obtain a waiver of such provision or (y) prepay the debt incurred under such debt instrument and terminate such debt instrument; it being understood and agreed that the risk of any such contravention shall be borne solely by the Company and not by the Lenders and shall in no event constitute a defense available to the Company for nonperformance of its obligations hereunder.

Effective upon the creation of the Cash Collateral Account and the depositing of funds therein pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company hereby pledges, assigns and grants a security interest in the Cash Collateral Account, all monies from time to time on deposit therein, all securities, instruments and other “investment property” (as defined by the New York Uniform Commercial Code) in which such monies may from time to time be invested, and all proceeds of any of the foregoing (the “Collateral”) to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, in order to secure the payment when due of all amounts payable by the Company in respect of the Letters of Credit.

If requested by the Company, the Administrative Agent may from time to time invest amounts on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account in securities issued or fully guaranteed or insured by the United States Government or any agency thereof or certificates of deposit of any Lender or any bank organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof having capital and surplus in excess of $100,000,000, all with a maturity of one year or less, or commercial paper of a domestic issuer rated in one of the two highest grades by either S&P or Xxxxx’x; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be liable to the Company for any diminution in the value of such investments.

Any income, gain or other proceeds of any such investments shall be credited to the Cash Collateral Account.

If at any time the Available Amount as of such date exceeds the amount of Collateral in the Cash Collateral Account (such deficit the “Deficit Amount”), the Company shall, if requested by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, forthwith deposit with the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds not less than the Deficit Amount.

If at any time the amount of Collateral in the Cash Collateral Account exceeds the Available Amount as of such date (such excess the “Excess Collateral”), the Administrative Agent shall, if no Default shall then be continuing, release, upon request of the Company to or on the instructions of the Company, Collateral in an amount not exceeding the amount of the Excess Collateral.

The Company agrees that in addition to any other rights and remedies afforded by applicable law and subject to any mandatory provisions of applicable law, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, may at any time set off, debit and apply any of the credit balances then or thereafter on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account, and may transfer to and/or register in the names of the Lenders’ nominees, sell, assign, deliver or realize upon the whole or any part of the Collateral, and apply the proceeds thereof to payment of the obligations secured thereby. The Company hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, to execute and file, in the name of the Company or, otherwise, all such financing statements and other instruments as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion may deem necessary in order to further perfect the Lien upon the Collateral created by this Section.

Upon the date the Credit Exposures are reduced to zero or an Event of Default no longer exists, the Administrative Agent shall promptly release to or on the instructions of the Company any Collateral held by the Administrative Agent hereunder.

ARTICLE 7

THE AGENTS

Section 7.01. Appointment and Authorization. (a) Each Lender appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the Notes as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with all such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; provided, however, that the Agents shall not commence any legal action or proceeding before a court of law on behalf of any Lender without such Lender’s prior consent.

(b) The Issuing Lender shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by it and the documents therewith until such time (and except for so long) as the Agents may agree at the request of the Required Lenders to act for the Issuing Lender with respect thereto; provided, however, that the Issuing Lender shall have all of the benefits and immunities (i) provided to the Agents in this Article 7 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Lender in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the application and agreements for Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in this Article 7 included the Issuing Lender with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) as additionally provided herein with respect the Issuing Lenders, subject in each case to the express limitations of Section 2.15 which limitations shall apply to the rights and obligations of the Lenders and Issuing Lenders under this Article 7 to the same extent as such limitations apply to the rights and obligations of the Company and Issuing Lenders pursuant to such Section 2.15.

Each of Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and their respective affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company as if it were not an Agent hereunder. With respect to its Commitment and Loans made by it, each of Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (and any of their respective successors acting as an Agent), in its capacity as a Lender hereunder, shall have the same rights and obligations hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise (or be subject to) the same as though it were not an Agent. The term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include each of Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (and any successor acting as an Agent) in its capacity as a Lender.

Section 7.03. Action by Agents. The obligations of the Agents hereunder are only those expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents shall not be required to take any action with respect to any Default, except as expressly provided in Article 6.

Section 7.04. Consultation with Experts. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 7.05. Liability of Agents. No Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, or employees shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in connection herewith (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as required by the terms of this Agreement) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or

employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into or verify (i) any statement, warranty or representation made by any Person in connection with this Agreement or any borrowing hereunder; (ii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of the Company; (iii) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article 3, except receipt of items required to be delivered to such Agent; or (iv) the validity, effectiveness (except for its own due execution and delivery) or genuineness of this Agreement, the Notes or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection herewith. No Agent shall incur any liability by acting in reasonable reliance upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement, or other writing (which may be a bank wire, facsimile transmission or similar writing) believed by it to be genuine or to be signed by the proper party or parties.

Section 7.06. Indemnification. Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Commitment, indemnify each Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Company) against any cost, expense (including counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct) that such Agent may suffer or incur in connection with this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by such Agent hereunder.

Section 7.07. Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon either Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon either Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement.

Section 7.08. Successor Agents. An Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Company. Upon any such resignation, the Company shall, with the consent of the Required Lenders, have the right to appoint a successor Agent (which may be the other institution then acting as Agent). If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 60 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of resignation (the “Resignation Effective Date”), the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent (which may be the other institution then acting as Agent), which shall be a commercial bank organized or licensed under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 (an “Eligible Successor Agent”); provided that if the retiring Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

If the Person serving as an Agent is a Defaulting Lender, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Company and such Person, remove such Person as Agent, and with the consent of the Company, appoint a successor Agent that is an Eligible Successor Agent. 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.

With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through such retiring or removed Agent, including under Section 5.01 hereof, shall instead be made by or to each Lender and Issuing Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for in this Section. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights and duties of the retiring or removed Agent, and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder as Agent (if not already discharged therefrom as provided in this Section). After any retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as an Agent, the provisions of this Article shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent.

Section 7.09. Agents’ Fees. The Company shall pay to each Agent for its own account fees in the amounts and at the times previously agreed upon between the Company and each Agent.

Section 7.10. Documentation Agents. Nothing in this Agreement shall impose upon the Documentation Agents, in such capacity, any duty or obligation whatsoever.

ARTICLE 8

CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES

Section 8.01. Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy. (a) If after the date hereof, in the case of any Committed Loan or Letter of Credit, or the date of the related Competitive Bid Quote, in the case of any Competitive Bid Loan, a Change in Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment or similar requirement (including, without limitation, any such requirement imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System pursuant to Regulation D) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or shall impose on any Lender or

the London interbank market any other condition affecting such Lender’s Fixed Rate Loans, its Notes or its Letter of Credit Liabilities, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any such Fixed Rate Loans or of issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or under its Note, by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then, within 15 days after written demand therefor made through the Administrative Agent, in the form of the certificate referred to in Section 8.01(c), the Company shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction; provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any such compensation with respect to any period prior to the 30th day before the date of any such demand.

(b) Without limiting the effect of Section 8.01(a) (but without duplication), if any Lender determines at any time after the date on which this Agreement becomes effective that a Change in Law will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital required to be maintained by such Lender (or its Parent) based on the existence of such Lender’s Loans, Letter of Credit Liabilities, Commitment and/or other obligations hereunder, then the Company shall pay to such Lender, within 15 days after its written demand therefor made through the Administrative Agent in the form of the certificate referred to in Section 8.01(c) such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender for any reduction in the rate of return on capital of such Lender (or its Parent) as a result of such increased capital requirement; provided that the Company shall not be required to pay any such compensation with respect to any period prior to the 30th day before the date of any such demand; provided further, however, that to the extent (i) a Lender shall increase its level of capital above the level maintained by such Lender on the date of this Agreement and there has not been a Change in Law or (ii) there has been a Change in Law and a Lender shall increase its level of capital by an amount greater than the increase attributable (taking into consideration the same variables taken into consideration in determining the level of capital maintained by such Lender on the date of this Agreement) to such Change in Law, the Company shall not be required to pay any amount or amounts under this Agreement with respect to any such increase in capital. Thus, for example, a Lender which is “adequately capitalized” (as such term or any similar term is used by any applicable bank regulatory agency having authority with respect to such Lender) may not require the Company to make payments in respect of increases in such Lender’s level of capital made under the circumstances described in clause (i) or (ii) above which improve its capital position from “adequately capitalized” to “well capitalized” (as such term or any similar term is used by any applicable bank regulatory agency having authority with respect to such Lender).

(c) Each Lender will promptly notify the Company, through the Administrative Agent, of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date on which this Agreement becomes effective, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 8.01 and will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A certificate of any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 8.01 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and setting forth the basis for the determination thereof shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender shall act reasonably and in good faith, and may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. This Section 8.01 shall not apply to any Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes or Excluded Taxes, which shall be covered solely by Section 8.03.

(d) Amounts shall only be payable by the Company to the applicable Lender under this Section 8.01 so long as such Lender determines in good faith that it is its general policy or practices to demand compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other financing agreements.

Section 8.02. Illegality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if, after the date on which this Agreement becomes effective, a Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to (i) honor any Commitment it may have hereunder to make any Eurodollar Loan, then such Commitment shall be suspended, or (ii) maintain any Eurodollar Loan or any Competitive Bid Eurodollar Loan, then all Eurodollar Loans and Competitive Bid Eurodollar Loans of such Lender then outstanding shall be converted into Base Rate Loans as provided in Section 8.02(b), and any remaining Commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans (but not other Loans) shall be immediately suspended, in either case until such Lender may again make and/or maintain Eurodollar Loans (as the case may be), and borrowings from such Lender, at a time when borrowings from the other Lenders are to be of Eurodollar Loans, shall be made, simultaneously with such borrowings from the other Lenders, by way of Base Rate Loans. Upon the occurrence of any such change, such Lender shall promptly notify the Company thereof (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), and shall furnish to the Company in writing evidence thereof certified by such Lender. Before giving any notice pursuant to this Section 8.02, such Lender shall designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the sole reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(b) Any conversion of any outstanding Eurodollar Loan or an outstanding Competitive Bid Loan which is required under this Section 8.02 shall be effected immediately (or, if permitted by applicable law, on the last day of the Interest Period therefor).

Section 8.03. Taxes on Payments. (a) All payments in respect of the Loans and the Letter of Credit Liabilities shall be made free and clear of and without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any present and future taxes, assessments or governmental charges imposed by the United States, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (“Taxes”), excluding (w) taxes imposed on a Lender’s net income, (x) franchise taxes, (y) branch profits taxes, and (z) taxes imposed under FATCA (all such non-excluded taxes being hereinafter called “Indemnified Taxes” and all such excluded taxes being hereinafter called “Excluded Taxes”), except as expressly provided in this Section 8.03. If any Indemnified Taxes are imposed and required by law to be deducted or withheld from any amount payable to any Lender or Agent, then the Company shall (i) increase the amount payable so that such Lender or Agent will receive a net amount (after deduction of all Indemnified Taxes) equal to the amount due hereunder, (ii) pay such Indemnified Taxes to the appropriate taxing authority for the account of such Lender or Agent, and (iii) as promptly as possible thereafter, send such Lender or Agent evidence showing payment thereof, together with such additional documentary evidence as such Lender or Agent may from time to time require. If the Company fails to perform its obligations under (ii) or (iii) above, the Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and/or such Lender or Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable as a result of any such failure; provided, however, that the Company will not be required to make any payment to any Lender or Agent under this Section 8.03 if withholding is required in respect of such Lender or Agent by reason of such Lender’s failure to comply with subsection (c) or (d), unless such failure results from an amendment to or a change in any applicable law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any regulatory authority (including without limitation any change in an applicable tax treaty), which amendment or change becomes effective after the date hereof.

(b) The Company shall indemnify the Agents and each Lender against any transfer taxes, documentary taxes, or similar assessments or charges made by any Governmental Authority by reason of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any Notes (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) Each Lender that is a United States person for United States federal income tax purposes shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding.

(d) Each Lender that is not a United States person for United States federal income tax purposes (a “Foreign Person”) agrees that it shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (i) on or before the date on which this Agreement becomes effective or the date of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement whereby it became a “Lender” hereunder (whichever is later), two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN,

W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI, as appropriate, indicating that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, (ii) on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete or after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form previously delivered by such Lender to the Company and the Administrative Agent, such duly completed extensions or renewals of such forms (or successor forms) certifying in the case of a Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8ECI (or successor forms) that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes (unless in any such case an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders such forms inapplicable or the exemption to which such forms relate unavailable and such Lender notifies the Company and the Administrative Agent that it is not entitled to receive payments without deduction or withholding of United States federal income taxes) and (iii) in the event of a transfer of any Loan to a subsidiary or affiliate of such Lender, concurrently with such transfer, a new Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or any successor form), as the case may be, for such subsidiary or affiliate indicating that such subsidiary or affiliate is, on the date of delivery thereof, entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. The Company and the Administrative Agent shall each be entitled to rely on such forms in its possession until receipt of any revised or successor form pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(e) If a Lender, at the time it first becomes a party to this Agreement (or because of a change in an Applicable Lending Office) is subject to a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Indemnified Taxes. For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Company with the appropriate form pursuant to Section 8.03(c) or (d) (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or in the interpretation thereof by any regulatory authority, occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Lender shall not be entitled to additional payments under Section 8.03(a) with respect to Indemnified Taxes imposed by the United States; provided, however, that should a Lender, which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax, become subject to Indemnified Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Company shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Indemnified Taxes.

(f) If the Company is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender pursuant to this Section 8.03, then such Lender will change the jurisdiction of one or more Applicable Lending Offices so as to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue if such change, in the sole judgment of such Lender, is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(g) If any Lender is able to apply for any credit, refund, deduction or other reduction in Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes in an amount which is reasonably determined by such Lender to be material, which arises by reason of any payment made by the Company pursuant to this Section 8.03, such Lender will use reasonable efforts to obtain such credit, refund, deduction or other reduction and, upon receipt thereof, will pay to the Company an amount, not exceeding the amount of such payment by the Company, equal to the net after tax value to such Lender, in its good faith determination, of such part of such credit, refund, deduction or other reduction as it determines to be allocable to such payment by the Company, having regard to all of its dealings giving rise to similar credits, refunds, deductions or other reductions during the same tax period and to the cost of obtaining the same; provided, however, that (i) such Lender shall not be obligated to disclose to the Company any information regarding its tax affairs or computations and (ii) nothing contained in this Section 8.03 shall be construed so as to interfere with the right of such Lender to arrange its tax affairs as it deems appropriate.

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

(i) Indemnification by Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Taxes or Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Company has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting any obligation of the Company to do so), (ii) any Taxes, Other Taxes or Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.08(g) and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement, and any reasonable

expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or a Note or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (h).

ARTICLE 9

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.01. Termination of Commitment of a Lender; New Lenders. (a) (1) If and during the time a Failed Loan in respect of any Lender shall exist, (2)upon receipt of notice from any Lender for compensation or indemnification pursuant to Section 8.01(c) or Section 8.03, (3) if any Lender shall fail to comply with the requirements of Section 8.03(c) or (g), (4) upon receipt of notice that the Commitment of a Lender to make Eurodollar Loans has been suspended or (5) if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, the Company shall have the right to terminate the Commitment in full of any such Lender (a “Retiring Lender”). The termination of the Commitment of a Retiring Lender pursuant to this Section 9.01(a) shall be effective on the tenth Domestic Business Day following the date of a notice of such termination to the Retiring Lender through the Syndication Agent, subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(i) in the event that on such effective date there shall be any Loans outstanding hereunder, the Company shall have prepaid on such date the aggregate principal amount of such Loans held by the Retiring Lender only;

(ii) in addition to the payment of the principal of the Loans held by the Retiring Lender pursuant to clause (i) above, the Company shall have paid such Retiring Lender all accrued interest thereon, and Facility Fee and any other amounts then payable to it hereunder, including, without limitation, all amounts payable by the Company to such Lender under Section 2.14 by reason of the prepayment of Loans pursuant to clause (i) with respect to the period ending on such effective date; provided that the provisions of Section 8.01, Section 8.03 and Section 9.04 shall survive for the benefit of any Retiring Lender; and

(iii) if at the time there are any Letter of Credit Liabilities, the applicable conditions to the issuance of the related Letters of Credit would be satisfied on the effective date of termination of the Retiring Lender’s Commitment and after giving effect thereto.

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, such Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder. On the date of termination of the Retiring Lender’s Commitment pursuant to this Section, its participation in all outstanding Letters of Credit and related reimbursement obligations shall terminate, and the Percentages of the Lenders and their participations therein shall be redetermined as if such Letters of Credit were issued on such date.

(b) In lieu of the termination of a Lender’s Commitment pursuant to Section 9.01(a), the Company may notify the Syndication Agent that the Company desires to replace such Retiring Lender with an Eligible Assignee (which may be one or more of the Lenders), which will purchase the Loans and assume the Commitment of the Retiring Lender. Upon the Company’s selection of a bank to replace a Retiring Lender, such bank’s agreement thereto and the fulfillment of the conditions to assignment and assumption set forth in Section 9.08 which shall result in payment to the Retiring Lender, either by the Company or the assignee, of all amounts which would have been payable upon termination of its Commitment pursuant to Section 9.01(a), such bank shall become a Lender hereunder for all purposes in accordance with Section 9.08.

(c) Except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no termination or assignment of a Defaulting Lender’s Commitment pursuant to this Section 9.01 will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 9.02. Notices. (a) All notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including bank wire, telecopy, facsimile transmission or similar writing), except as provided in subsection (b) below, and shall be given to such party (i) in the case of the Company, or any Agent, at its address set forth on the signature pages hereof, (ii) in the case of any Lender, at its address set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire or (iii) in the case of any party, such other address as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Company. Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (iv) if given by registered or certified mail, upon the earlier of the date of actual receipt or the date of delivery indicated on the return receipt delivered to the sender or (v) if given by any other means, when received at the address or telecopier number specified in this Section and an oral or written confirmation of receipt is received from the recipient.

(b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to Article 2 if such Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Company may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

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

(c) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMPANY MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE COMPANY MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMPANY MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Company, any Lender, the Issuing Lenders or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Company’s, any Lender Party’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Company Materials or notices through the Platform, any other electronic platform or electronic messaging service, or through the Internet, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Agent Parties.

Section 9.03. No Waivers. No failure or delay by any Agent or Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 9.04. Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The Company shall pay (i) the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of special counsel for the Agents in connection with the preparation of this Agreement (or the amendment, modification or waiver thereof) as previously agreed upon between the Company, the Arrangers and the Agents and (ii) if an Event of Default occurs, all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents and the Lenders, including reasonable and documented fees and expenses of no more than (x) one counsel to the Agents (plus one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and one specialty counsel in each applicable specialty), (y) one counsel to the Lenders (plus one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and one specialty counsel in each applicable specialty) and (z) in the case of an actual conflict of interest, one additional counsel for each group of similarly situated affected persons, taken as a whole), in connection with such Event of Default and collection and other enforcement proceedings resulting therefrom.

(b) The Company agrees to indemnify each Agent and Lender, their respective affiliates and the respective directors, officers, agents and employees of the foregoing (each an “Indemnitee”; and each of the affiliates and other Persons with respect to any particular Agent or Lender, its “Related Persons”) and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against (and to reimburse each Indemnitee on demand for) any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, costs and reasonable expenses of any kind (including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel, limited to (x) one counsel for the Agents (plus one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and one specialty counsel in each applicable specialty), (y) one counsel for the Lenders (plus one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and one specialty counsel in each applicable specialty), and (z) in the case of an actual conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for each group of similarly situated affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole) incurred by such Indemnitee in response to or in defense of any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any actual or proposed use of proceeds of Loans hereunder or any related transaction; provided that no Indemnitee shall have the right to be indemnified hereunder (i) to the extent such indemnification relates to relationships of, between or among each of, or any of, the Agents, the Lenders or any Assignee or Participant or (ii) for such Indemnitee’s or any of its Related Persons’ gross negligence or willful misconduct or the material breach by such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons of their obligations (if any) under this Agreement, as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. This section shall not apply to any Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes or Excluded Taxes, which shall be covered solely by Section 8.03.

Section 9.05. Pro Rata Treatment. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement with respect to Competitive Bid Loans, in Section 9.01(a) or otherwise, (a) each borrowing from, and change in the Commitments of, the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to their respective Commitments, and (b) each payment and prepayment on the Loans shall be made to all the Lenders, pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal amount of the Loans held by each of them.

Section 9.06. Sharing of Set-offs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise (except as contemplated by Section 2.03, Section 2.14, Article 8 or Section 9.01), receive payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount then due with respect to the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by it which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount then due with respect to the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by such other Lender, the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase such participations in the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by the other Lenders, and such other adjustments shall be made, as may be required so that all such payments with respect to the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities held by the Lenders shall be shared by the Lenders pro rata; provided that nothing in this Section shall impair the right of any Lender to exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim it may have and to apply the amount subject to such exercise to the payment of indebtedness of the Company, other than its indebtedness hereunder; provided further, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.04(e) and 2.20(c) and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

Section 9.07. Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement or the Notes may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by the Company and the Required Lenders (and, if the rights or duties of any Issuing Lender or Agent are affected thereby, by it); provided that no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by each affected Lender, (i) subject any Lender to any additional obligation, (ii) reduce the principal of or rate of interest on any Loan or Letter of Credit Liabilities or any fees hereunder or (iii) postpone any scheduled payment

of principal of, or the date fixed for any payment of interest on, any Loan or Letter of Credit Liabilities or the date fixed for termination of any Commitment or Letter of Credit; and provided further that, no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by all the Lenders, change the percentage of the Credit Exposures that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action under this Section 9.07 or any other provision of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment or waiver hereunder (and any amendment or waiver which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Section 9.08. Successors and Assigns; Participations; Novation. (a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby; provided that, except in accordance with Sections 5.04 and 5.07, the Company may not assign or transfer any of its respective rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of all Lenders.

(b) Any Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities at the time owing to it); provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, as hereinafter defined, with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), (ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights in respect of outstanding Competitive Bid Loans, (iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto (an “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”), together with a processing and recordation fee of

$3,500 and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and (iv) no such assignment shall be made to any Defaulting Lender or any of its affiliates, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (iv). Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, 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 Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement 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 Section 8.01, Section 8.03 and Section 9.04). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section.

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Assumption Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Company or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other financial institutions (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans and/or Letter of Credit Liabilities owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Company, the 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 or instrument pursuant to which a Lender

sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 9.07 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (e) of this Section, the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Article 8 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender.

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Article 8 than the applicable Lender (if such Lender had not sold the participation to such Participant) would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Person if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.03 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with Section 8.03(c) and (g) as though it were a Lender.

(f) 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 to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any of the Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such right and/or obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

Section 9.09. Designated Lenders. (a) Subject to the provisions of this subsection (a), any Lender may at any time designate an Approved Fund to provide all or a portion of the Loans to be made by such Lender pursuant to this Agreement; provided that such designation shall not be effective unless the Company and the Administrative Agent consent thereto (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld). When a Lender and its Approved Fund shall have signed an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit K hereto (a “Designation Agreement”) and the Company and the Administrative Agent shall have signed their respective consents thereto, such Approved Fund shall become a Designated Lender for purposes of this Agreement. The Designating Lender shall thereafter have the right to permit such Designated Lender to provide all or a portion of the Loans to be made by such Designating Lender pursuant to Section 2.01 or 2.03, and the making of such Loans or portion thereof shall satisfy the obligation of the Designating Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loans or portion thereof were made by the Designating Lender. As to any Loans or portion thereof made by it, each Designated Lender shall have all the rights that a Lender making such Loans or portion thereof would have had under this Agreement and otherwise; provided that (x) its voting rights under this Agreement shall be exercised solely by its Designating Lender; (y) its Designating Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such Designated Lender’s obligations under this Agreement, including its obligations in respect of the Loans or portion thereof made by it, and (z) such Designated Lender shall be subject to the limitations of Section 9.08(e) to the same extent as a Participant. No additional Note shall be required to evidence the Loans or portion thereof made by a Designated Lender; and the Designating Lender shall be deemed to hold its Note as agent for its Designated Lender to the extent of the Loans or portion thereof funded by such Designated Lender. Each Designating Lender shall act as administrative agent for its Designated Lender and give and receive notices and other communications on its behalf. Any payments for the account of any Designated Lender shall be paid to its Designating Lender as administrative agent for such Designated Lender and neither the Company nor the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for any Designating Lender’s application of such payments. In addition, any Designated Lender may, with notice to (but without the prior written consent of) the Company and the Administrative Agent assign all or portions of its interest in any Loans to its Designating Lender or to any financial institutions consented to by the Company and the Administrative Agent that provide liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such Designated Lender to support the funding of Loans or portions thereof made by it.

Each Lender agrees, with respect to any information delivered or made available by the Company to it that is clearly indicated to be confidential information or private data, to use all reasonable efforts to protect such confidential information from unauthorized use or disclosure and to restrict disclosure to only those Persons employed or retained by such Lender who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Nothing herein shall prevent any Lender from disclosing such information (i) to any other Lender, (ii) to its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and accountants who have a need to know such information in accordance with customary banking practices and who receive such information having been made aware of and having agreed to the restrictions set forth in this Section, (iii) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (iv) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority having jurisdiction over such Lender, (v) which has been publicly disclosed, (vi) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation to which any Agent, any Lender, the Company or their respective affiliates may be a party, (vii) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder and (viii) with the prior written consent of the Company; provided, however, that before any disclosure is permitted under (iii) or (vi) of this Section 9.15, each Lender shall, if not legally prohibited, notify and consult with the Company, promptly and in a timely manner, concerning the information it proposes to disclose, to enable the Company to take such action as may be appropriate under the circumstances to protect the confidentiality of the information in question, and provided further that any disclosure under the foregoing proviso be limited to only that information discussed with the Company. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and publicly available information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, any other documents related hereto and the Commitments. The use of the term “confidential” in this Section 9.15 is not intended to refer to data classified by the government of the United States under laws and regulations relating to the handling of data, but is intended to refer to information and other data regarded by the Company as private.

Section 9.17. USA Patriot Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Company that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Company, which information includes the name and address of the Company and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Company in accordance with said Act.

110.0 bps

Facility Fee Rate

6.0 bps

7.0 bps

9.0 bps

11.0 bps

15.0 bps

For purposes of this Schedule, the following terms have the following meanings (subject to the final paragraph of this Schedule):

“Level I Pricing” applies on any day if on such day the Company’s unsecured long-term debt is rated A+ or higher by S&P or A1 or higher by Moody’s.

“Level II Pricing” applies on any day if on such day Level I Pricing does not apply and the Company’s unsecured long-term debt is rated A or higher by S&P or A2 or higher by Moody’s.

“Level III Pricing” applies on any day if on such day none of Level I Pricing or Level II Pricing applies and the Company’s unsecured long-term debt is rated A- or higher by S&P or A3 or higher by Moody’s.

“Level IV Pricing” applies on any day if on such day none of Level I Pricing, Level II Pricing or Level III Pricing applies and the Company’s unsecured long-term debt is rated BBB+ or higher by S&P or Baa1 or higher by Moody’s.

“Level V Pricing” applies on any day if no other Pricing Level applies.

“Moody’s” means Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. and its successors.

“Pricing Level” refers to the determination of which of Level I Pricing, Level II Pricing, Level III Pricing, Level IV Pricing or Level V Pricing applies. Level I Pricing is the lowest Pricing Level and Level V Pricing the highest.

“S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services and its successors.

The credit ratings to be utilized for purposes of this Pricing Schedule are those assigned to the senior unsecured long-term debt securities of the Company without third-party credit enhancement, and any rating assigned to any other debt security of the Company shall be disregarded. The credit ratings in effect on any day are those in effect at the close of business on such day. If the Company is split-rated and the ratings differential is one notch, the higher of the two ratings will apply (e.g., A-/Baa1 results in Level III Pricing). If the Company is split-rated and the ratings differential is more than one notch, the average of the two ratings (or the higher of two intermediate ratings) shall be used (e.g., A-/Baa2 results in Level IV Pricing, as does A-/Baa3). If the Company receives notice from a Rating Agency of a change in the rating of its senior unsecured long-term debt, the Company will advise the Administrative Agent.
