1.04. Calculations; Computations.  (a)                                                        The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent); provided, that, (i) except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all computations and all definitions (including accounting terms) used in determining compliance with 8.14, 9.02(v), 9.03(vii), 9.03(viii), 9.03(xi), 9.04(xiv), 9.04(xvi), 9.05(xii), 9.05(xvi), 9.05(xvii), 9.05(xviii), 9.05(xxii), 9.05(xxiii), 9.07, 9.09(iv) and 9.11(c) shall utilize GAAP and policies in conformity with those used to prepare the audited financial statements of the Borrower referred to in Section 7.05(a) for the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2015, (ii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all such financial statements shall be prepared, and all financial covenants contained herein or in any other Credit Document shall be calculated, in each case, without giving effect to any election under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 159 (or any similar accounting principle) permitting a Person to value its financial liabilities at the fair value thereof; (iii) to the extent expressly provided herein, certain calculations shall be made on a Pro Forma Basis; and (iv) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, for purposes of calculating financial terms, all covenants and related definitions, all such calculations based on the operations of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis shall be made without giving effect to the operations of any Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

1.05.

SECTION 2. Amount and Terms of Credit.

2.01. Revolving Loans and Borrowings.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and during the term of this Agreement, each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment agrees (severally, not jointly or jointly and severally) to make revolving loans (“Revolving Loans”) to the Borrower in an amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the lesser of:

(i) such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Amount, or

(ii) such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of an amount equal to the lesser of:

(A) the Revolving Loan Limit less the Letter of Credit Usage at such time, or

(B) the Borrowing Base at such time less the Letter of Credit Usage at such time.

(b) Amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section 2.01 may be repaid and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, reborrowed at any time during the term of this Agreement.  The outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans, together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which they are declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

47

(c) Anything to the contrary in this Section 2.01 notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall have the right (but not the obligation) to establish, increase, reduce, eliminate, or otherwise adjust reserves from time to time against the Borrowing Base or the Revolving Loan Limit in such amounts, and with respect to such matters (but without duplication), as Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion shall deem necessary or appropriate, including (i) reserves in an amount equal to the Bank Product Reserve Amount, and (ii) reserves with respect to (A) sums that the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries are required to pay under any Section of this Agreement or any other Credit Document (such as taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased assets, rents or other amounts payable under such leases) and has failed to pay when due, and (B) amounts owing by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries to any Person to the extent secured by a Lien on, or trust over, any of the Collateral (other than a Permitted Lien), which Lien or trust, in Administrative Agent’s Permitted Discretion, likely would have a priority superior to Administrative Agent’s Liens (such as Liens or trusts in favor of landlords, warehousemen, carriers, mechanics, materialmen, laborers, or suppliers, or Liens or trusts for ad valorem, excise, sales, or other taxes where given priority under applicable law) in and to such item of the Collateral.

(d) The Revolving Loan Commitment shall terminate on the Maturity Date.  The Borrower may reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment, without premium or penalty, by providing written notice of its intent to do so, to an amount not less than the sum of (i) the Revolver Usage as of such date, plus (ii) the principal amount of all Revolving Loans not yet made as to which a request has been given by the Borrower under Section 2.02(a), plus (iii) the amount of all Letters of Credit not yet issued as to which a request has been given by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.04(a); provided, that the Revolving Loan Commitment may not be reduced below $10,000,000 (unless the Revolving Loan Commitment is being reduced to zero).  Each such reduction shall be in an amount which is not less than $1,000,000 (unless the Revolving Loan Commitment is being reduced to zero and the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment in effect immediately prior to such reduction are less than $1,000,000), shall be made by providing not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice to Administrative Agent and shall be irrevocable.  Once reduced, the Revolving Loan Commitment may not be increased unless the Borrower, Administrative Agent and Required Lenders otherwise agree in writing.  Each such reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment shall reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment Amount of each Revolving Lender proportionately in accordance with its Pro Rata Share thereof.

2.02. Advancing Revolving Loans and Settlements

(a) Procedure for Borrowing.  Each Borrowing shall be made by the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing duly executed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower delivered to Administrative Agent (which may be delivered through Administrative Agent’s electronic platform or portal).  Such notice shall be irrevocable and must be received by Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day that is the requested Funding Date specifying (i) the amount of such Borrowing, and (ii) the requested Funding Date, which shall be a Business Day; provided, however, that such notice must be received by Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day prior to the date that is the requested Funding Date.  At Administrative Agent’s election, in lieu of delivering the above-described written request, any Authorized Officer of the Borrower may give Administrative Agent telephonic notice of such request by the required time.  In such circumstances, the Borrower agrees that any such telephonic notice will be confirmed in writing within twenty-four (24) hours of the giving of such telephonic notice, but the failure to provide such written confirmation shall not affect the validity of the request.  All Borrowing requests which are not made on-line via Administrative Agent’s electronic platform or portal shall be subject to (and unless Administrative Agent elects otherwise in the exercise of its sole discretion, such Borrowings shall not be made until the completion of) Administrative Agent’s authentication process (with results satisfactory to Administrative Agent) prior to the funding of any such requested Borrowing.

48

(b) Making of Loans.

(i) Promptly after receipt of a request for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(a), Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders, not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the Funding Date applicable thereto, by telecopy, telephone, or other similar form of transmission, of the requested Borrowing.  Each Revolving Lender shall make the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, to Administrative Agent’s Account, not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Funding Date applicable thereto.  After Administrative Agent’s receipt of the proceeds of such Revolving Loans, Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds thereof available to the Borrower on the applicable Funding Date by transferring immediately available funds equal to such proceeds received by Administrative Agent to the Designated Account; provided, however, that subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(c)(ii), Administrative Agent shall not request any Revolving Lender to make, and no Revolving Lender shall have the obligation to make, any Revolving Loan if (A) one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing unless such condition has been waived, or (B) the requested Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such Funding Date.

(ii) Unless Administrative Agent receives notice from a Revolving Lender prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date of a Borrowing, that such Revolving Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower the amount of that Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, Administrative Agent may assume that each Revolving Lender has made or will make such amount available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds on the Funding Date and Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount.  If any Revolving Lender shall not have made its full amount available to Administrative Agent in immediately available funds and if Administrative Agent in such circumstances has made available to the Borrower such amount, that Revolving Lender shall on the Business Day following such Funding Date make such amount available to Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Defaulted Lender Rate for each day during such period.  A notice submitted by Administrative Agent to any Revolving Lender with respect to amounts owing under this Section 2.02(b)(ii) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.  If such amount is so made available, such payment to Administrative Agent shall constitute such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan on the date of Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement.  If such amount is not made available to Administrative Agent on the Business Day following the Funding Date, Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall pay such amount to Administrative Agent for Administrative Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Revolving Loans composing such Borrowing; provided, that such repayment shall not constitute a waiver of any of the Borrower’s rights under this Agreement.

(iii) [Intentionally Omitted].

(iv) If requested by a Lender, the portion of the Revolving Loans made by such Lender shall be evidenced by a promissory note executed by the Borrower in an original principal amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Amount.

49

(c) Protective Advances and Optional Overadvances.

(i) Any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document notwithstanding, Administrative Agent hereby is authorized by the Borrower and the Lenders, from time to time in Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, to make Revolving Loans to, or for the benefit of, the Borrower on behalf of the Lenders that Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion deems necessary or desirable (A) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or (B) to enhance the likelihood of repayment of the Obligations (other than the Bank Product Obligations) (any of the Revolving Loans described in this Section 2.02(c)(i) shall be referred to as “Protective Advances”).

(ii) Any contrary provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document notwithstanding, the Lenders hereby authorize Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent may, but is not obligated to, knowingly and intentionally, continue to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower notwithstanding that an Overadvance exists or thereby would be created, so long as (A) after giving effect to such Revolving Loans, the outstanding Revolver Usage (except for and excluding amounts charged to the Loan Account for interest, fees, or expenses) does not exceed the Revolving Loan Limit and (B) at the time of the making of any such Revolving Loan, Administrative Agent does not believe, in good faith, that the Overadvance created by such Revolving Loan will be outstanding for more than ninety (90) days.  In the event Administrative Agent obtains actual knowledge that the Revolver Usage exceeds the amounts permitted by the immediately foregoing provisions, regardless of the amount of, or reason for, such excess, Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders as soon as practicable (and prior to making any (or any additional) intentional Overadvances (except for and excluding amounts charged to the Loan Account for interest, fees, costs and expenses) unless Administrative Agent determines that prior notice would result in imminent harm to the Collateral or its value, in which case Administrative Agent may make such Overadvances and provide notice as promptly as practicable thereafter), and the Lenders thereupon shall, together with Administrative Agent, jointly determine the terms of arrangements that shall be implemented with the Borrower intended to reduce, within a reasonable time, the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans to the Borrower to an amount permitted by the preceding sentence.  In such circumstances, if any Lender objects to the proposed terms of reduction or repayment of any Overadvance, the terms of reduction or repayment thereof shall be implemented according to the determination of the Required Lenders.  In any event: (x) if any unintentional Overadvance remains outstanding for more than thirty (30) days, unless otherwise agreed to by the Required Lenders, the Borrower shall immediately repay Revolving Loans in an amount sufficient to eliminate all such unintentional Overadvances, and (y) after the date all such Overadvances have been eliminated, there must be at least five (5) consecutive days before intentional Overadvances are made.  The foregoing provisions are meant for the benefit of the Lenders and Administrative Agent and are not meant for the benefit of the Borrower, which shall continue to be bound by the provisions of Section 2.02(h).  Each Revolving Lender shall be obligated to settle with Administrative Agent as provided in Section 2.02(d) (or Section 2.02(f), as applicable) for the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any unintentional Overadvances by Administrative Agent reported to such Lender, any intentional Overadvances made as permitted under this Section 2.02(c)(ii), and any Overadvances resulting from the charging to the Loan Account of interest, costs, fees and expenses.

(iii) Each Protective Advance made for the account of Administrative Agent and each Overadvance shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder; except, that, no Protective Advance or Overadvance shall be eligible to be a LIBOR Loan and, prior to settlement therefor, all payments on the Protective Advances shall be payable to the Administrative Agent solely for its own account.  The Protective Advances and Overadvances shall be repayable on demand, secured by Administrative Agent’s Liens, constitute Obligations hereunder, and bear interest at the rate applicable from time to time to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans.  The ability of Administrative Agent to make Protective Advances is separate and distinct from its ability to make Overadvances and its ability to make Overadvances is separate and distinct from its ability to make Protective Advances.  For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations on Administrative Agent’s ability to make Protective Advances do not apply to Overadvances and the limitations on Administrative Agent’s ability to make Overadvances do not apply to Protective Advances.  The provisions of this Section 2.02(c) are for the exclusive benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders and are not intended to benefit the Borrower in any way.

50

(d) Settlement.  It is agreed that each Revolving Lender’s funded portion of the Revolving Loans is intended by the Revolving Lenders to equal, at all times, such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans.  Such agreement notwithstanding, Administrative Agent and the other Revolving Lenders agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of the Borrower) that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, settlement among the Revolving Lenders as to the Revolving Loans and the Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) Administrative Agent shall request settlement (“Settlement”) with the Revolving Lenders on a weekly basis, or on a more frequent basis if so determined by Administrative Agent (A) for itself, with respect to the outstanding Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent, and (2) with respect to Borrower’s or its Subsidiaries’ collections out of the Collateral or payments received, as to each by notifying the Revolving Lenders by telecopy, telephone, or other similar form of transmission, of such requested Settlement, no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately prior to the date of such requested Settlement (the date of such requested Settlement being the “Settlement Date”).  Such notice of a Settlement Date shall include a summary statement of the amount of outstanding Revolving Loans and Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent for the period since the prior Settlement Date.  Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein (including Section 2.02(f)):  (y) if the amount of the Revolving Loans (including Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent) made by a Revolving Lender that is not a Defaulted Lender exceeds such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent) as of a Settlement Date, then Administrative Agent shall, by no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Settlement Date, transfer in immediately available funds to a Deposit Account of such Revolving Lender (as such Revolving Lender may designate), an amount such that each such Revolving Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have as of the Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent), and (z) if the amount of the Revolving Loans (including Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent) made by a Revolving Lender is less than such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent) as of a Settlement Date, such Revolving Lender shall no later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Settlement Date transfer in immediately available funds to Administrative Agent’s Account, an amount such that each such Revolving Lender shall, upon transfer of such amount, have as of the Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans (including Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent).  Such amounts made available to Administrative Agent under clause (z) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be applied against the amounts of the Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent and shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Revolving Lenders.  If any such amount is not made available to Administrative Agent by any Revolving Lender on the Settlement Date applicable thereto to the extent required by the terms hereof, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover for its account such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulted Lender Rate.

(ii) In determining whether a Revolving Lender’s balance of the Revolving Loans and Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent is less than, equal to, or greater than such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans and Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent as of a Settlement Date, Administrative Agent shall, as part of the relevant Settlement, apply to such balance the portion of payments actually received in good funds by Administrative Agent with respect to principal, interest, fees payable by the Borrower and allocable to the Revolving Lenders hereunder, and proceeds of Collateral.

51

(iii) [Intentionally Omitted].

(iv) Anything in this Section 2.02(d) to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that a Revolving Lender is a Defaulted Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from remitting settlement amounts to the Defaulted Lender and, instead, shall be entitled to elect to implement the provisions set forth in Section 2.02(f).

(e) Notation.  Administrative Agent, as a non-fiduciary agent for the Borrower, shall maintain a register showing the principal amount of the Revolving Loans owing to each Lender, including the Protective Advances, and the interests therein of each Lender, from time to time and such register shall, absent manifest error, conclusively be presumed to be correct and accurate.  The register shall, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice to Administrative Agent, be made available for inspection by the Borrower.

(f) Defaulted Lenders. Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulted Lender any payments made by the Borrower to Administrative Agent for the Defaulted Lender’s benefit or any collections out of the Collateral or proceeds of Collateral that would otherwise be remitted hereunder to the Defaulted Lender, and, in the absence of such transfer to the Defaulted Lender, Administrative Agent shall transfer any such payments (i) first, to the Issuing Lender, to the extent of the portion of a Letter of Credit Disbursement that was required to be, but was not, repaid by the Defaulted Lender, (ii) second, to each non-Defaulted Lender ratably in accordance with their Commitments (but, in each case, only to the extent that such Defaulted Lender’s portion of a Revolving Loan (or other funding obligation) was funded by such other non-Defaulted Lender), (iii) third, to a suspense account maintained by Administrative Agent, the proceeds of which shall be retained by Administrative Agent and may be made available to be re-advanced to or for the benefit of the Borrower as if such Defaulted Lender had made its portion of Revolving Loans (or other funding obligations) hereunder, and (iv) from and after the date on which all other Obligations have been paid in full, to such Defaulted Lender.  Subject to the foregoing, Administrative Agent may hold and, in its Permitted Discretion, re-lend to the Borrower for the account of such Defaulted Lender the amount of all such payments received and retained by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulted Lender.  Each Defaulted Lender agrees that all payments made by the Borrower for any Loans shall be deemed to be made to all Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share and no Defaulted Lender shall have a direct cause of action against the Borrower for payments made to Administrative Agent that Administrative Agent has not paid over or credited to Defaulted Lender due to the terms of this Agreement.  Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to the Credit Documents (including the calculation of Pro Rata Share in connection therewith) and for the purpose of calculating the fee payable under Section 3.02, such Defaulted Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” and such Lender’s Commitment shall be deemed to be zero.  The provisions of this Section 2.02(f) shall remain effective with respect to such Defaulted Lender until the earlier of (A) the date on which the non-Defaulted Lenders, Administrative Agent, and the Borrower shall have waived, in writing, the application of this Section 2.02(f) to such Defaulted Lender, or (B) the date on which such Defaulted Lender makes payment of all amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder, pays to Administrative Agent all amounts owing by Defaulted Lender in respect of the amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder, and, if requested by Administrative Agent, provides adequate assurance of its ability to perform its future obligations hereunder.  The operation of this Section 2.02(f) shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitment of any Lender, to relieve or excuse the performance by such Defaulted Lender or any other Lender of its duties and obligations hereunder, or to relieve or excuse the performance by the Borrower of their duties and obligations hereunder to Administrative Agent or to the Lenders other than such Defaulted Lender.  Any failure by a Defaulted Lender to fund amounts that it was obligated to fund hereunder shall constitute a material breach by such Defaulted Lender of this Agreement and shall entitle the Borrower, at its option, upon written notice to Administrative Agent, to arrange for a substitute Lender to assume the Commitment of such Defaulted Lender, such substitute Lender to be reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent.  In connection with the arrangement of such a substitute Lender, the Defaulted Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder, and agrees to execute and deliver a completed form of Assignment and Acceptance in favor of the substitute Lender (and agrees that it shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such document if it fails to do so) subject only to being repaid its share of the outstanding Obligations (other than Bank Product Obligations, but including (1) all interest, fees, and other amounts that may be due and payable in respect thereof, and (2) an assumption of its Pro Rata Share of the Letters of Credit); provided, however, that any such assumption of the Commitment of such Defaulted Lender shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any of the Lender’s or the Borrower’s rights or remedies against any such Defaulted Lender arising out of or in relation to such failure to fund.  In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 2.02(f) and any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such provisions be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other.  In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 2.02(f) shall control and govern.

52

(g) Independent Obligations.  All Revolving Loans (other than Protective Advances funded by Administrative Agent) shall be made by the Lenders contemporaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares.  It is understood that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Revolving Loan (or other extension of credit) hereunder, nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, and (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall excuse any other Lender from its obligations hereunder.

(h) Overadvances. If, at any time or for any reason, the amount of Obligations (excluding Bank Product Obligations) owed by the Borrower to the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.01(a) or Section 2.04 is greater than any of the limitations set forth in Section 2.01(a) or Section 2.04, as applicable (an “Overadvance”), except as otherwise provided for under Section 2.02(c), the Borrower shall promptly (no later than one (1) Business Day after the occurrence of such Overadvance) pay to Administrative Agent, in cash, the amount of such excess in accordance with Section 2.03(b).

2.03. Mandatory and Optional Revolving Loan Repayments.

(a) Repayment Upon Termination Date.  The Revolving Loan Commitment shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) any date on which Administrative Agent or Required Lenders elect to terminate the Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to Section 10.13 (such earlier date being the “Termination Date”).  On the Termination Date, there shall become due, and the Borrower shall pay the entire outstanding principal amount of. each Revolving Loan, together with accrued and unpaid Obligations pertaining thereto.

(b) Borrowing Base.  If, at any time, (i) the Revolver Usage on such date exceeds (ii) the Borrowing Base (such excess being referred to as the “Borrowing Base Excess”), then the Borrower shall promptly (no later than one (1) Business Day after the occurrence of such Borrowing Base Excess) prepay the Revolving Loans in accordance in an aggregate amount equal to the Borrowing Base Excess.  If, at any time, (x) the Revolver Usage on such date exceeds (y) the aggregate amount of Revolving Loans permitted pursuant to Section 2.01(a) (such excess being referred to as the “Excess Revolving Loans”), then the Borrower shall immediately prepay the Revolving Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the Excess Revolving Loans.

53

2.04. Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the request of the Borrower made in accordance herewith, the Issuing Lender agrees to issue, or to cause an Underlying Issuer (including, as Issuing Lender’s agent) to issue, a requested Letter of Credit.  If Issuing Lender, at its option, elects to cause an Underlying Issuer to issue a requested Letter of Credit, then Issuing Lender agrees that it will enter into arrangements relative to the reimbursement of such Underlying Issuer (which may include, among, other shall mean, by becoming an applicant with respect to such Letter of Credit or entering into undertakings which provide for reimbursements of such Underlying Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit; each such obligation or undertaking, irrespective of whether in writing, a “Reimbursement Undertaking”) with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Underlying Issuer.  By submitting a request to Issuing Lender for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested that Issuing Lender issue or that an Underlying Issuer issue the requested Letter of Credit and to have requested Issuing Lender to issue a Reimbursement Undertaking with respect to such requested Letter of Credit if it is to be issued by an Underlying Issuer (it being expressly acknowledged and agreed by the Borrower that the Borrower is and shall be deemed to be an applicant (within the meaning of Section 5-102(a)(2) of the Code) with respect to each Underlying Letter of Credit).  Each request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or the amendment, renewal, or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, shall be made in writing by an Authorized Officer and delivered to the Issuing Lender via hand delivery, telefacsimile, or other electronic method of transmission reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension.  Each such request shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender and shall specify (i) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (ii) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension of such Letter of Credit, (iii) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (iv) the name and address of the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit, and (v) such other information (including, in the case of an amendment, renewal, or extension, identification of the Letter of Credit to be so amended, renewed, or extended) as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or extend such Letter of Credit.  Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Issuing Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, issue or cause the issuance of a Letter of Credit or to issue a Reimbursement Undertaking in respect of an Underlying Letter of Credit, in either case, that supports the obligations of the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries (1) in respect of (A) a lease of real property, or (B) an employment contract, or (2) at any time that one or more of the Revolving Lenders is a Defaulted Lender.  The Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit or a Reimbursement Undertaking in respect of an Underlying Letter of Credit, in either case, if any of the following would result after giving effect to the requested issuance:

(i) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Borrowing Base less the outstanding amount of Revolving Loans, or

(ii) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed $5,000,000, or

(iii) the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the Revolving Loan Limit less the outstanding amount of Revolving Loans.

Each Letter of Credit shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Lender, including the requirement that the amounts payable thereunder must be payable in Dollars, and shall expire on a date no more than twelve (12) months after the date of issuance or last renewal of such Letter of Credit, which date shall be no later than the Stated Maturity Date.  If Issuing Lender makes a payment under a Letter of Credit or an Underlying Issuer makes a payment under an Underlying Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the applicable Letter of Credit Disbursement on the Business Day such Letter of Credit Disbursement is made and, in the absence of such payment, the amount of the Letter of Credit Disbursement immediately and automatically shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder and, initially, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans.  If a Letter of Credit Disbursement is deemed to be an Revolving Loan hereunder, the Borrower’s obligation to pay the amount of such Letter of Credit Disbursement to Issuing Lender shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Loan.  Promptly following receipt by Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.04(b) to reimburse the Issuing Lender, then to such Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Lender as their interests may appear.

54

(b) Promptly following receipt of a notice of a Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.04(a), each Revolving Lender agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Revolving Loan deemed made pursuant to Section 2.04(a) on the same terms and conditions as if the Borrower had requested the amount thereof as an Revolving Loan and Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders.  By the issuance of a Letter of Credit or a Reimbursement Undertaking (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit or a Reimbursement Undertaking increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender or the Revolving Lenders, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have granted to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, a participation in each Letter of Credit issued by Issuing Lender and each Reimbursement Undertaking, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such Letter of Credit or Reimbursement Undertaking, and each such Revolving Lender agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Lender or an Underlying Issuer under the applicable Letter of Credit.  In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each Letter of Credit Disbursement made by Issuing Lender or an Underlying Issuer and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 2.04(a), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason.  Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, an amount equal to its respective Pro Rata Share of each Letter of Credit Disbursement pursuant to this Section 2.04(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Section 6.  If any such Revolving Lender fails to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of a Letter of Credit Disbursement as provided in this Section, such Revolving Lender shall be deemed to be a Defaulted Lender and Administrative Agent (for the account of the Issuing Lender) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulted Lender Rate until paid in full.

(c) The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold the Lenders and each Underlying Issuer harmless from any damage, loss, cost, expense, or liability (other than taxes, whether or not included in the “Taxes” defined term, which shall be governed by Section 4.04), and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by Issuing Lender, any other member of the Lenders, or any Underlying Issuer arising out of or in connection with any Reimbursement Undertaking or any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost, expense, or liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender, any other Lender, or any Underlying Issuer, or any dispute solely among the Issuing Lender, any other Lender or any Underlying Issuer.  The Borrower agrees to be bound by the Underlying Issuer’s regulations and interpretations of any Letter of Credit or by Issuing Lender’s interpretations of any Reimbursement Undertaking even though this interpretation may be different from the Borrower’s own, and the Borrower understands and agrees that none of the Issuing Lender, the Lenders, or any Underlying Issuer shall be liable for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in following the Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letter of Credit or any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto, unless such error, negligence or mistake resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender, any other Lender, or any Underlying Issuer as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  The Borrower understands that the Reimbursement Undertakings may require Issuing Lender to indemnify the Underlying Issuer for certain costs or liabilities arising out of claims by the Borrower against such Underlying Issuer.  The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save, defend, and hold Issuing Lender and the other Lenders harmless with respect to any loss, cost, expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), or liability (other than Taxes, which shall be governed by Section 4.04) incurred by them as a result of the Issuing Lender’s indemnification of an Underlying Issuer; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any such loss, cost, expense, or liability to the extent that it is caused by the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender or any other Lender.  The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that none of the Issuing Lender, any other Lender, or any Underlying Issuer shall be responsible for delays, errors, or omissions resulting from the malfunction of equipment in connection with any Letter of Credit, unless such delays, errors or omissions resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender, any other Lender, or any Underlying Issuer as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

55

(d) The Borrower hereby authorize and direct any Underlying Issuer to deliver to the Issuing Lender all instruments, documents, and other writings and property received by such Underlying Issuer pursuant to such Underlying Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon the Issuing Lender’s instructions with respect to all matters arising in connection with such Underlying Letter of Credit and the related application.

(e) Any and all issuance charges, usage charges, commissions, fees, and costs incurred by the Issuing Lender relating to Underlying Letters of Credit shall be expenses for purposes of this Agreement and shall be reimbursable immediately by the Borrower to Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender; it being acknowledged and agreed by the Borrower that, as of the Effective Date, the usage charge imposed by the Underlying Issuer is one quarter of one percent (0.25%) per annum times the undrawn amount of each Underlying Letter of Credit, that such usage charge may be changed from time to time, and that the Underlying Issuer also imposes a schedule of charges for amendments, extensions, drawings, and renewals.

(f) If by reason of (i) any change after the Effective Date in any applicable law, treaty, rule, or regulation or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by any Governmental Authority, or (ii) compliance by the Issuing Lender, any other Lender, or Underlying Issuer with any direction, request, or requirement (irrespective of whether having the force of law) of any Governmental Authority or monetary authority including, Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Board as from time to time in effect (and any successor thereto):

(i) any reserve, deposit, or similar requirement is or shall be imposed or modified in respect of any Letter of Credit issued or caused to be issued hereunder or hereby, or

(ii) there shall be imposed on the Issuing Lender, any other Lender, or Underlying Issuer any other condition regarding any Letter of Credit or Reimbursement Undertaking,

and the result of the foregoing is to increase, directly or indirectly, the cost to the Issuing Lender, any other Lender, or an Underlying Issuer of issuing, making, guaranteeing, or maintaining any Reimbursement Undertaking or Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof, then, and in any such case, Administrative Agent may, at any time within a reasonable period after the additional cost is incurred or the amount received is reduced, notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay within thirty (30) days after demand therefor, such amounts as Administrative Agent may specify to be necessary to compensate the Issuing Lender, any other Lender, or an Underlying Issuer for such additional cost or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date of such demand until payment in full thereof at the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be required to provide any compensation pursuant to this Section 2.04(f) for any such amounts incurred more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date on which the demand for payment of such amounts is first made to the Borrower; provided, further, however, that if an event or circumstance giving rise to such amounts is retroactive, then the one hundred eighty (180) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.  The determination by Administrative Agent of any amount due pursuant to this Section 2.04(f), as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, shall, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto.

56

2.05. [Intentionally Omitted]

2.06. Conversions.  The Borrower shall have the option to convert, on any Business Day, all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of Loans made pursuant to one or more Borrowings of one or more Types of Loans into a Borrowing of another Type of Loan; provided, that, (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10(b), LIBOR Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the Loans being converted, (ii) Base Rate Loans may not be converted into LIBOR Loans if any Event of Default exists pursuant to Section 10 on the date of conversion, (iii) if any Event of Default (other than as referred to in preceding clause (ii)) is in existence on the date of the proposed conversion of a LIBOR Loan, (x) Base Rate Loans may not be converted into LIBOR Loans if the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have notified the Borrower that conversions will not be permitted during the existence of such Event of Default and (y) in the absence of the notification referred to in preceding clause (x), Base Rate Loans may only be converted into LIBOR Loans with an Interest Period of one (1) month, and (iv) no conversion pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall result in more than six (6) Borrowings of LIBOR Loans.  Each such conversion shall be effected by the Borrower by giving the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office prior to 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) at least (x) in the case of conversions of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans, three (3) Business Days’ prior notice and (y) in the case of conversions of LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans, one Business Day’s prior notice (each, a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”), in each case substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1, appropriately completed to specify the Loans to be so converted, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Loans were incurred and, if to be converted into LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of any such proposed conversion affecting any of its Loans.

2.07. [Intentionally Omitted].

2.08. [Intentionally Omitted].

2.09. Interest Periods.  At the time the Borrower gives any Notice of Conversion/Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into, any LIBOR Loan (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan (in the case of any subsequent Interest Period), the Borrower shall have the right to elect the interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) applicable to such LIBOR Loan, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower, be (x) a one (1), two (2), three (3) or six (6) month period or (y) if agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, such other periods not to exceed one month; provided, that (in each case):

57

(i) all LIBOR Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

(ii) the initial Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan shall commence on the date of Borrowing of such LIBOR Loan (including the date of any conversion thereto from a Base Rate Loan) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such LIBOR Loan shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;

(iii) if any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;

(iv) if any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

(v) no Interest Period may be selected at any time when an Event of Default under Section 10 is in existence;

(vi) if any Event of Default (other than as referred to in preceding clause (v)) is in existence, (x) no Interest Period may be selected if the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have notified the Borrower that the selection of new Interest Periods will not be permitted during the existence of such Event of Default and (y) in the absence of the notification referred to in preceding clause (x), no Interest Period with a duration in excess of one (1) month may be selected;

(vii) no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of Loans shall be selected which extends beyond the Maturity Date; and

If by 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, the Borrower has failed to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue such LIBOR Loans as LIBOR Loans with an Interest Period of one (1) month effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period; provided, that if the Borrower is not permitted to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

2.10. Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.  (a)  In the event that any Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (i) or (iii)(z) below, may be made only by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders):

(i) on any Interest Determination Date that, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the London interbank market, adequate and fair shall mean do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR; or

58

(ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any LIBOR Loan because (x) of any change since the Effective Date in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (whether or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request, such as, but not limited to:  (A) a change in the basis of taxation of payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender of the principal of or interest on the Loans or any other amounts payable hereunder (except for changes in Excluded Taxes) or (B) a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of LIBOR and/or (y) LIBOR with respect to such LIBOR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of funding such LIBOR Loan; or

(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any LIBOR Loan has been made (x) unlawful by any law or governmental rule, regulation or order, (y) impossible by compliance by any Lender in good faith with any governmental request (whether or not having force of law) or (z) impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Effective Date which materially and adversely affects the London interbank market;

then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above) shall promptly give notice (by telephone promptly confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and, except in the case of clause (i) above, to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders).  Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, LIBOR Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by the Borrower with respect to LIBOR Loans which have not yet been incurred (including by way of conversion) shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower agrees, subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(b) (to the extent applicable), to pay to such Lender, within 10 Business Days of such Lender’s written request therefor (including reasonably supporting documentation therefor), such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law.

(b) At any time that any LIBOR Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(ii), the Borrower may, and in the case of a LIBOR Loan affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(iii), the Borrower shall, either (x) if the affected LIBOR Loan is then being made initially or pursuant to a conversion, cancel such Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) on the same date that the Borrower was notified by the affected Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii) or (y) if the affected LIBOR Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert such LIBOR Loan into a Base Rate Loan; provided, that, if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 2.10(b).

59

(c) If any Lender determines that after the Effective Date the introduction of or any change in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline, directive or request (whether or not having the force of law) concerning capital adequacy, or any change in interpretation or administration thereof by the NAIC or any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender based on the existence of such Lender’s Commitments hereunder or its obligations hereunder, then the Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender, within 10 Business Days of its written demand (including documentation reasonably supporting such request) therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Lender or such other corporation as a result of such increase of capital.  In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable; provided, that such Lender’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 2.10(c) shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto.  Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of such additional amounts.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder, issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, shall be deemed to be a change after the Effective Date in a requirement of law or government rule, regulation or order, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented (including for purposes of this Section 2.10), other than any final rules, regulations, orders, requests, guidelines or directives under the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that the Lenders are required to comply with prior to the date of this Agreement (it being understood that payments required as a result of this Section 2.10(d) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(b), as and to the extent provided therein).

2.11. Compensation.  (a)  The Borrower agrees to compensate each Lender within ten (10) Business Days of its written request (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such compensation) and calculation of the amount of such compensation, for all actual losses, reasonable, out of pocket expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its LIBOR Loans but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain:  (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Administrative Agent) a Borrowing of, or conversion from or into, LIBOR Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn by the Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 2.10(a)); (ii) if any prepayment or repayment (including any prepayment or repayment made pursuant to Section 4.01 or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 10) or conversion of any of its LIBOR Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its LIBOR Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower; or (iv) as a consequence of (x) any other default by the Borrower to repay LIBOR Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or (y) any election made pursuant to Section 2.10(b).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, with respect to any Lender’s or any participant’s claim for compensation under Section 2.10(a) or 4.04, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender for any amount incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim; provided, that, if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such one hundred eighty (180) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

60

2.12. Change of Lending Office.  Each Lender agrees that on the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 2.10(c) or Section 4.04 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event; provided, that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage in any material respect, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section.  Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Sections 2.10 and 4.04.

2.13. Loan Account.  Administrative Agent shall maintain a loan account (the “Loan Account”) on its books to record Loans, the Letters of Credit issued or arranged by Issuing Lender for the Borrower’s account, and other extensions of credit made by Lenders hereunder or under any other Credit Document, and all payments thereon made by the Borrower.  All entries in the Loan Account shall be made in accordance with Administrative Agent’s customary accounting practices as in effect from time to time.  The balance in the Loan Account, as recorded on Administrative Agent’s most recent printout or other written statement, shall be conclusive and binding evidence of the amounts due and owing to Administrative Agent by the Borrower absent clear and convincing evidence to the contrary; provided, that any failure to so record or any error in so recording shall not limit or otherwise affect the Borrower’s duty to pay all amounts owing hereunder or under any other Credit Document.  Unless the Borrower notifies Administrative Agent of any objection to any such printout or statement (specifically describing the basis for such objection) within thirty (30) days after the date of receipt thereof, it shall be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon the Borrower in all respects as to all matters reflected therein.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Security Document or in any other Credit Document, but subject to the terms of the Agreement Among Lenders, each Credit Party hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that, at any time during a Cash Dominion Period, Administrative Agent may, or at the direction of Required Lenders shall, cause each financial institution maintaining a Deposit Account that is the subject of a control agreement to remit all amounts held by such financial institution on behalf of the applicable Credit Party to the Payment Account or such other deposit account identified by Administrative Agent from time to time.

SECTION 3. Fees.

3.01. Unused Line Fee.  From and following the Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay Administrative Agent, for the benefit of all Lenders committed to make Revolving Loans, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, a fee in an amount equal to (i) the Revolving Loan Commitment less the average Daily Balance of the sum of the outstanding Revolving Loans during the preceding quarter, multiplied by (ii) three-eighths of one percent (0.375%) per annum.  Such fee is to be paid quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of each ULF Quarter.

3.02. Letter of Credit Fee.  The Borrower shall pay Administrative Agent (for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders, subject to any agreements between Administrative Agent and individual Revolving Lenders), a Letter of Credit fee (in addition to the charges, commissions, fees, and costs set forth in Section 2.04(e)) which shall accrue at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin relative to LIBOR Loans times the Daily Balance of the undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit.

3.03. Administrative Agent’s Fees.  The Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent fees in such amounts and at such times as set forth in the Fee Letter.

61

SECTION 4. Payments; Taxes.

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

64

(e) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.04, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 4.04 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (e), in no event will the Administrative Agent or a Lender be required to pay any amount pursuant to this paragraph (e) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This Section 4.04 shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

True and Complete Disclosure.  All factual information (when furnished and taken as a whole) furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including, without limitation, all information contained in the Documents) for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, the other Credit Documents or any transaction contemplated herein or therein is, and all other such factual information as supplemented (when furnished and taken as a whole) hereafter furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower in writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender will be, true and accurate in all material respects on the date as of which such information is dated or certified and not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to make such information as supplemented (when furnished and taken as a whole) not misleading in any material respect at such time in light of the circumstances under which such information was provided, it being understood and agreed that for purposes of this Section 7.07, such factual information shall not include any pro forma financial information, the budgets referred to in Section 8.01(d) or projections or forward looking statements and information regarding general economic conditions.

7.08. Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations.  (a)  All proceeds of the Revolving Loans will be used by the Borrower for the payment of transaction fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transaction, and for working capital and general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures, Permitted Acquisitions, permitted Investments and permitted Dividends.

(b) No part of any Credit Event (or the proceeds thereof) will be used to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock.  Neither the making of any Loan nor the use of the proceeds thereof nor the occurrence of any other Credit Event will violate the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.  Not more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the value of the assets of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole is represented by Margin Stock.

7.09. Tax Returns and Payments.  Each of the Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be timely filed (or filed for extension) with the appropriate taxing authority all federal income and other material returns, statements, forms and reports for taxes (the “Returns”) required to be filed by, or with respect to the income, properties or operations of, the Borrower and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, except where the failure to timely file or cause to be timely filed such Returns would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.  The Returns accurately reflect in all material respects all liability for taxes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, for the periods covered thereby.  Each of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has paid all taxes and assessments payable by it which have become due, other than (i) those that are being contested in good faith and adequately disclosed and fully provided for on the financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP or (ii) to the extent the failure to pay such taxes or assessments could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

7.10. Compliance with ERISA.  (a)  Schedule 7.10 sets forth each Plan as of the Effective Date.  Each Plan is in compliance in form and operation with its terms and with ERISA and the Code (including without limitation the Code provisions compliance with which is necessary for any intended favorable tax treatment) and all other applicable laws and regulations, except where any failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Each Plan (and each related trust, if any) which is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS to the effect that it meets the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code covering all applicable tax law changes or is comprised of a master or prototype plan that has received a favorable opinion letter from the IRS, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower, nothing has occurred since the date of such determination that would adversely affect such determination (or, in the case of a Plan with no determination, to the knowledge of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower, nothing has occurred that would materially adversely affect the issuance of a favorable determination letter or otherwise materially adversely affect such qualification).  No ERISA Event has occurred other than as would not individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

71

(b) There exists no Unfunded Pension Liability with respect to any Plan that would have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) To the knowledge of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower, no Multiemployer Plan is insolvent.  None of the Borrower, any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate has incurred a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan, and if each of the Borrower, each Subsidiary of the Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate were to withdraw in a complete withdrawal as of the date this assurance is given or deemed given, the aggregate withdrawal liability that would be incurred would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) There are no actions, suits or claims pending against or involving a Plan (other than routine claims for benefits) or, to the knowledge of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower, which would reasonably be expected to be asserted successfully against any Plan and, if so asserted successfully, would reasonably be expected either singly or in the aggregate to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(e) The Borrower, each Subsidiary of the Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate have made all material contributions to or under each Plan and Multiemployer Plan required by law within the applicable time limits prescribed thereby, the terms of such Plan or Multiemployer Plan, respectively, or any contract or agreement requiring contributions to a Plan or Multiemployer Plan save where any failure to comply, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) No Plan which is subject to Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA has applied for or received an extension of any amortization period, within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 303 or 304 of ERISA.  None of the Borrower, any Subsidiary of the Borrower, or any ERISA Affiliate has ceased operations at a facility so as to become subject to the provisions of Section 4068(a) of ERISA, withdrawn as a substantial employer so as to become subject to the provisions of Section 4063 of ERISA or ceased making contributions to any Plan subject to Section 4064(a) of ERISA to which it made contributions.  No lien imposed under the Code or ERISA on the assets of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate exists or is likely to arise on account of any Plan.  None of the Borrower, any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate has any liability under Section 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA.

(g) Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) each Foreign Pension has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all applicable laws, statutes, rules, regulations and orders and has been maintained, where required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities, (ii) all contributions required to be made with respect to a Foreign Pension Plan have been timely made, (iii) neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred any obligation in connection with the termination of, or withdrawal from, any Foreign Pension Plan and (iv) the present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Pension Plan, determined as of the end of the Borrower’s most recently ended Fiscal Year on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of the assets of such Foreign Pension Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities.

72

7.11. Security Documents.  (a)  The provisions of the Security Agreement are effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors a legal, valid and enforceable (except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law)) security interest in all right, title and interest of the Credit Parties in the Security Agreement Collateral described therein, and the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, has (or, after the filing of UCC-1 financing statements and the taking of such other actions as are required by the Security Agreement, will have) a fully perfected security interest in all right, title and interest in all of the Security Agreement Collateral described therein (if and to the extent such Security Agreement Collateral can be perfected by the actions required by the Security Agreement), subject to no other Liens other than Permitted Liens.  The recordation of (x) the Grant of Security Interest in U.S. Patents and (y) the Grant of Security Interest in U.S. Trademarks in the respective form attached to the Security Agreement, in each case in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, together with filings on Form UCC-1 made pursuant to the Security Agreement, will create, as may be perfected by such filings and recordation, a perfected security interest in the United States trademark registrations and United States patents that are part of the Security Agreement Collateral, and the recordation of the Grant of Security Interest in U.S. Copyrights in the form attached to the Security Agreement with the United States Copyright Office, together with filings on Form UCC-1 made pursuant to the Security Agreement, will create, as may be perfected by such filings and recordation, a perfected security interest in the United States copyright registrations that are part of the Security Agreement Collateral.

(b) The security interests created under the Pledge Agreement in favor of the Collateral Agent, as Pledgee, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, constitute perfected security interests in the Pledge Agreement Collateral described in the Pledge Agreement (if and to the extent such Pledge Agreement Collateral can be perfected by the actions required by the Pledge Agreement), subject to no security interests of any other Person (other than Permitted Liens).  No filings or recordings are required in order to perfect (or maintain the perfection or priority of) the security interests created in the Pledge Agreement Collateral constituting “certificated securities” (as defined in the UCC) under the Pledge Agreement, so long as the Collateral Agent (or designated agent thereof) possesses or “controls” (within the meaning provided in the UCC) such Pledge Agreement Collateral.

7.12. Properties.  All material Real Property owned and leased by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as of the Effective Date, and the nature of the interest therein, is correctly set forth in Schedule 5.13.  Each of the Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries has good and marketable title to all material Real Property owned by it (except as sold or otherwise disposed of as permitted by the terms of this Agreement) and necessary in the ordinary conduct of its business, free and clear of all Liens, other than Permitted Liens.

73

Intellectual Property.  Each of the Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries owns or has the right to use all patents, trademarks, permits, domain names, service marks, trade names, copyrights, inventions, trade secrets, proprietary information and know-how of any type, whether or not written (including, but not limited to, rights in computer programs and databases) and formulas, necessary for the present conduct of its or their business, without, to the knowledge of the Borrower, any infringement of the intellectual property rights of others which, or the failure to own or have such right to use which, as the case may be, would reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Indebtedness.  Schedule 7.20 sets forth a list of all Indebtedness with respect to debt for borrowed money owed by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries as of the Effective Date and which is to remain outstanding after giving effect to the Transaction (excluding the Loans, the Term Loans, the Senior Secured Notes, the Existing Notes and Intercompany Debt), in each case showing the aggregate principal amount thereof and the name of the respective borrower and any Credit Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries which directly or indirectly guarantees such debt.

8.10. Use of Proceeds.  The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans only as provided in Section 7.08.

8.11. Additional Security; Further Assurances; etc.  (a)  The Borrower will, and will cause each other Credit Party to, grant to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors security interests and Mortgages in such Collateral and Real Property Collateral of the Borrower and such other Credit Party as are not covered by the original Security Documents (other than Excluded Assets) as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (collectively, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Additional Security Documents”); except, that, Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders will not request the filing of any Mortgages on any Mortgaged Property so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.  All such security interests and Mortgages (i) shall be granted pursuant to documentation

83

reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Collateral Agent and the Borrower; it being understood and agreed that each Mortgage on any Mortgaged Property shall be in form and substance substantially similar to any Mortgage on such Mortgaged Property executed by the Borrower and/or any other Credit Party in favor of the Term Loan Agent under the Term Loan Documents, and (ii) subject to exceptions as are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, shall constitute valid, enforceable (except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law)) and perfected security interests (if and to the extent the assets subject to the applicable Additional Security Document can be perfected by the actions required by such Additional Security Document) and Mortgages superior to and prior to the rights of all third Persons and subject to no other Liens except for Permitted Liens or, in the case of Real Property, the Permitted Encumbrances related thereto.  The Additional Security Documents or instruments related thereto shall be duly recorded or filed in such manner and in such places as are required by law to establish, perfect (if and to the extent such security interests can be perfected by the filings or other actions required under the Additional Security Documents), preserve and protect the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent required to be granted pursuant to the Additional Security Documents and all taxes, fees and other charges payable in connection therewith shall be paid in full.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 8.11(a) shall not apply to (and the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be required to grant a Mortgage in) any Leaseholds (regardless of fair market value) or any owned Real Property the fair market value of which is less than $1,000,000 (as reasonably determined by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent); provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate fair market value (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) of all owned Real Property not required to be subject to a Mortgage by operation of this sentence exceed $10,000,000 in the aggregate.

(b) The Borrower will, and will cause each of the other Credit Parties to, at the reasonable expense of the Borrower, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, authorize and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time such schedules, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, real property surveys, title insurance, flood certifications, reports, bailee agreements, control agreements and other documents, assurances, opinions of counsel or instruments and take such further similar steps relating to the Collateral covered by any of the Security Documents as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require; except, that, in connection with any Mortgage, the Borrowers shall only be required to provide deliverables to Administrative Agent consistent with Section 5.13 of the Term Loan Credit Agreement as in effect as of the “Effective Date” of said Term Loan Credit Agreement.  Each Credit Party acknowledges that certain transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and certain actions which may be taken by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders in the exercise of their rights and remedies under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, may require the consent of the FCC.  If the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that the consent of the FCC is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of any of the aforesaid documents or any documents delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders in connection therewith or as a result of any action which may be taken or be proposed to be taken pursuant thereto, then each Credit Party, at its sole reasonable cost and expense, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to secure such prior consent and to cooperate with the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders in any such action taken or proposed to be taken by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender.

(c) If the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders reasonably determine that they are required by law or regulation to have appraisals prepared in respect of any Mortgaged Property of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties constituting Collateral, the Borrower will, at its own expense, provide to the Administrative Agent appraisals which satisfy the applicable requirements of the Real Estate Appraisal Reform Amendments of the Financial Institution Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as amended, and which shall otherwise be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

84

(d) The Borrower agrees that each action required by clauses (a) through (c) of this Section 8.11 shall be completed within sixty (60) days after such action is requested to be taken by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (as such time may be extended by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders in its or their discretion); provided, that in no event shall the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries be required to take any action, other than using its commercially reasonable efforts, to obtain consents from third parties with respect to its compliance with this Section 8.11.

(e) Promptly after any Domestic Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower ceases to constitute an Immaterial Subsidiary or a “U.S Foreign Holding Company” in accordance with the applicable definitions thereof, the Borrower shall cause such Domestic Restricted Subsidiary to take all actions required as if such Domestic Restricted Subsidiary were then established, created or acquired.

(f) Each new Wholly-Owned Domestic Restricted Subsidiary that is required to execute any Credit Document shall promptly, upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all other relevant documentation (including opinions of counsel) of the type described in Sections 5.02, 5.03, 5.04, 5.08, 5.09 and 5.13 as such new Restricted Subsidiary would have had to deliver if such new Restricted Subsidiary were a Credit Party on the Effective Date.

(g) In the event (A) new Unrestricted Subsidiaries are established or created, or the Borrower or any of its Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiaries acquires Equity Interests in an Unrestricted Subsidiary (i) at least 5 days’ prior written notice thereof shall be given to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period of time as is acceptable to the Administrative Agent in any given case), (ii) the Equity Interests (other than any Excluded Equity Interests) of such new Unrestricted Subsidiary held by any Credit Party shall be promptly pledged pursuant to, and to the extent required by, this Agreement and the Pledge Agreement and the certificates, if any, representing such Equity Interests, together with stock or other appropriate powers duly executed in blank, shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent as, and to the extent required by, the Pledge Agreement, (iii) all Investments by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be permitted pursuant to Section 9.05 and (iv) all requirements of the definition of Unrestricted Subsidiary and Section 8.14 shall have been satisfied, and (B) the Borrower and its Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiaries establish, create and, to the extent permitted by this Agreement, acquire Wholly-Owned Restricted Subsidiaries (i) at least five (5) days’ prior written notice thereof shall be given to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period of time as is acceptable to the Administrative Agent in any given case), (ii) the Equity Interests (other than any Excluded Equity Interests) of such new Restricted Subsidiary shall be promptly pledged pursuant to, and to the extent required by, this Agreement and the Pledge Agreement and the certificates, if any, representing such Equity Interests (other than any Excluded Equity Interests), together with stock or other appropriate powers duly executed in blank, shall be delivered to the Collateral Agent as, and to the extent required by, the Pledge Agreement, (iii) each such new Wholly-Owned Domestic Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary) shall execute a counterpart of the Subsidiaries Guaranty, the Security Agreement and the Pledge Agreement and (iv) each such new Wholly-Owned Domestic Restricted Subsidiary (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary), to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, shall take all actions required pursuant to this Section 8.11.

8.13. [Intentionally Omitted].

8.14. Designation of Subsidiaries.  The board of directors of the Borrower may at any time designate any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary (any such designation, a “Subsidiary Designation”); provided, that:

(i) immediately before and after such designation, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(ii) [Intentionally Omitted];

(v) in the case of a designation of a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, (1) such Subsidiary to be so designated shall satisfy all of the requirements of an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” as set forth in the definition thereof, (2) if such Restricted Subsidiary to be so designated is directly owned by the Borrower or any of its Wholly-Owned Domestic Restricted Subsidiaries, one hundred percent (100%) of the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary are owned by the Borrower or such Wholly-Owned Domestic Restricted Subsidiary, (3) all of the provisions of Section 8.11 shall have been complied with in respect of such newly designated Unrestricted Subsidiary and (4) the Investment resulting from the designation of such Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary as provided in the following sentence is permitted by Section 9.05(xxii) or (xxiii); provided, that foregoing clauses (1), (2) and (4) shall not be applicable in the case of a “deemed designation” as provided in clause (ii) of the proviso appearing in the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”;

SECTION 11. The Administrative Agent

11.01. Appointment.  The Lenders (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to designate, appoint, and authorize) hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Xxxxx Fargo as Administrative Agent (for purposes of this Section 11 and Section 12.01, the term “Administrative Agent ” also shall include Xxxxx Fargo in its capacity as Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents) to act as specified herein and in the other Credit Documents.  Each Lender and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider hereby irrevocably authorizes, the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein or therein and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The Administrative Agent may perform any of its respective duties hereunder by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it or through its Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Section 11 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, as well as activities as Administrative Agent.  The provisions of this Section 11 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider, and no Credit Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions.  The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.  In performing its functions and duties hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and each Bank Product Provider and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.  Each Lender and each Bank Product Provider irrevocably appoints each other as its agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting Liens (whether pursuant to Section 8-301(a)(2) of the UCC or otherwise), for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, in assets in which, in accordance with the UCC or any other applicable legal requirement a security interest can be perfected by possession or control.  Should any Lender (other than the Collateral Agent) obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly following the Collateral Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions.

11.02. Nature of Duties.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it or them hereunder or under any other Credit Document or in connection herewith or therewith (a) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.12) or (b) in the absence of its or their gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).  The duties of the Administrative Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Administrative Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or any Bank Product Provider; and nothing in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein.  The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Credit Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 12.12); provided, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability, if the Administrative Agent is not indemnified to its satisfaction, or that is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable legal requirements including, for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may affect a foreclosure, modification or termination of property of a Lender or Bank Product Provider in default under this Agreement under any Debtor Relief Law.

110

11.03. Lack of Reliance on the Administrative Agent.  Independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, each Lender and each Bank Product Provider, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with the purchase of the Loan, the making and the continuance of the Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or any Bank Product Provider with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter.  Each of the Lenders and each Bank Product Provider represents and warrants that it has reviewed each document made available to it on the Platform in connection with this Agreement and has acknowledged and accepted the terms and conditions applicable to the recipients thereof (including any such terms and conditions set forth, or otherwise maintained, on the Platform with respect thereto).  None of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be responsible to any Lender or any Bank Product Provider for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default is given to such Person by the Borrower or a Lender.  Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may from time to time use one or more outside service providers for the tracking of all UCC financing statements (and/or other collateral related filings and registrations from time to time) required to be filed or recorded pursuant to the Credit Documents and the notification to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or expiration thereof, and that each of such service providers will be deemed to be acting at the request and on behalf of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties.

11.04. Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent.  If the Administrative Agent requests instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders; and the Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Lender or any Bank Product Provider by reason of so refraining.  Without limiting the foregoing, neither any Lender nor any Bank Product Provider shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Credit Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders.

111

11.05. Reliance.  The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, radiogram, order or other document or telephone message signed, sent or made by any Person that the Administrative Agent believed to be the proper Person, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and any other Credit Document and its duties hereunder and thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan.

11.06. Indemnification.  To the extent the Administrative Agent (or any Related Party thereof) is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Borrower, the Lenders will reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any Related Party thereof) in proportion to their respective “percentage” as used in determining the Required Lenders as in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 11.06 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which all Commitments shall have terminated and all of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnification obligations) shall have been paid in full, in proportion to their respective “percentage” as used in determining the Required Lenders as in effect immediately prior to such date) for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent (or any Related Party thereof) in performing its duties hereunder or under any other Credit Document or in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, the Transactions or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent or Related Party under or in connection with any of the foregoing (IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES); provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have directly resulted solely and directly from the Administrative Agent’s or Related Party’s, as the case may be, gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.  The agreements in this Section 11.06 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

11.07. The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity.  With respect to its obligation to make Loans under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the rights and powers specified herein for a “Lender” and may exercise the same rights and powers as though it were not performing the duties specified herein; and the term “Lender”, “Required Lenders” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, include the Administrative Agent in its respective individual capacities.  The Administrative Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, investment banking, trust or other business with, or provide debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party (or any Person engaged in a similar business with any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof) as if they were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

112

11.08. Payments by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders.  All payments to be made by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders (or Bank Product Providers) shall be made by bank wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to such wire transfer instructions as each party may designate for itself by written notice to the Administrative Agent.  Concurrently with each such payment, the Administrative Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, premium, fees, or interest of the Obligations.

11.09. Resignation by the Administrative Agent.  (a)  The Administrative Agent may resign from the performance of all its respective functions and duties hereunder and/or under the other Credit Documents at any time by giving 20 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Lenders and, unless an Event of Default under Section 10.05 then exists, the Borrower.  Such resignation shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent pursuant to clauses (b) and (c) below or as otherwise provided below.

(b) Upon any such notice of resignation by the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder who shall be a commercial bank or trust company reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (provided, that the Borrower’s approval shall not be required if an Event of Default then exists).

(c) If a successor Administrative Agent shall not have been so appointed within such 20 Business Day period, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, that the Borrower’s consent shall not be required if an Event of Default then exists), shall then appoint a successor Administrative Agent who shall serve as the Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.

(d) If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above by the 20th Business Day after the date such notice of resignation was given by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and/or under any other Credit Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above.

(e) Upon a resignation of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11.09, the Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and its Related Parties shall remain indemnified to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the provisions of this Section 11 (and the analogous provisions of the other Credit Documents) shall continue in effect for the benefit of the Administrative Agent its sub-agents and its Related Parties for all of their actions and inactions while serving as the Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and Related Parties.

11.10. Collateral Matters.  (a)  Each Lender and each Bank Product Provider authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents for the benefit of the Lenders, each Bank Product Provider and the other Secured Creditors.  Each Lender hereby agrees, and each Bank Product Provider will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Security Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders and each Bank Product Provider.  The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders and each Bank Product Provider, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender or any Bank Product Provider, from time to time prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents (if and to the extent such security interest is required to be perfected pursuant to such Security Documents).

113

(b) The Lenders and each Bank Product Provider hereby authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release (or subordinate) any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnification obligations) at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) constituting property being sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries) upon the sale or other disposition thereof in compliance with Section 9.02, (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by Section 12.12), (iv) owned by a Subsidiary Guarantor upon release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under its Subsidiaries Guaranty in accordance with the terms thereof, (v) as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant Security Documents or the last sentence of each of Sections 9.01 and 9.02 or (vi) upon designation of a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the requirements of Section 8.14, with respect to Collateral of such Restricted Subsidiary.  Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release (or subordinate) particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 11.10.

(c) Anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender hereby agree (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to agree) that (i) no Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Subsidiaries Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the Credit Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors in accordance with the terms thereof, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), the Collateral Agent (or any Lender, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code,) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Creditors (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from the Required Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.

(d) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Secured Creditors or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Credit Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 11.10 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Secured Creditors, except for its gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

114

11.11. Administrative Agent may File Bankruptcy Disclosure and Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws relative to any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file a verified statement pursuant to rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure that, in its sole opinion, complies with such rule’s disclosure requirements for entities representing more than one creditor;

(ii) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents, Related Parties and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under this Agreement.  To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent, its agents, Related Parties and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under this Agreement out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Lenders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

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

11.12. Delivery of Information; Lender’s Acknowledgement.  (a)  The Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver to any Lender originals or copies of any documents, instruments, notices, communications or other information received by the Administrative Agent from any Credit Party, any Restricted Subsidiary, the Required Lenders, any Lender or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document except (i) as specifically provided in this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (ii) as specifically requested from time to time in writing by any Lender with respect to a specific document, instrument, notice or other written communication received by and in the possession of the Administrative Agent at the time of receipt of such request and then only in accordance with such specific request.

115

(b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement or an Assignment and Assumption Agreement and funding its Loan shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved (and by entering into a Bank Product Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Credit Document and each other document required to be approved by the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable, on the Effective Date), each Credit Document and each other document required to be approved by the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable, on the Effective Date.

11.13. Subordination of Liens; Revolver Intercreditor Agreement.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, each of the Secured Creditors irrevocably (a) authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent enter into the Revolver Intercreditor Agreement and to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent under any Credit Document pursuant to the Revolver Intercreditor Agreement to the holder of any Lien on such property that secures Indebtedness under the Parity Lien Documents permitted under Section 9.04(x)(v) and (b) agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Revolver Intercreditor Agreement.

11.14. Withholding Taxes.  To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax.  If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, or if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding tax from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

11.15. Field Examination Reports; Confidentiality; Disclaimers by Lenders; Other Reports and Information.  By becoming a party to this Agreement, each Lender:

(a) is deemed to have requested that the Administrative Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field examination report respecting the Borrower or its Subsidiaries (each, a “Report”) prepared by or at the request of the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall so furnish each Lender with such Reports,

(b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent does not (i) make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report,

(c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that the Administrative Agent or other party performing any field examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and will rely significantly upon the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ books and records, as well as on representations of the Borrower’s personnel,

116

(d) agrees to keep all Reports and other material, non-public information regarding the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans in a confidential manner in accordance with Section 12.16, and

(e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees:  (i) to hold the Administrative Agent and any other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or fail to take or any conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrower, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a loan or loans of the Borrower, and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold the Administrative Agent, and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including, attorneys fees and costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

(f) In addition to the foregoing,  (i) any Lender may from time to time request of the Administrative Agent in writing that the Administrative Agent provide to such Lender a copy of any report or document provided by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent that has not been contemporaneously provided by the Borrower or such Subsidiary to such Lender, and, upon receipt of such request, the Administrative Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender, (ii) to the extent that the Administrative Agent is entitled, under any provision of the Credit Documents, to request additional reports or information from the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, any Lender may, from time to time, reasonably request the Administrative Agent to exercise such right as specified in such Lender’s notice to the Administrative Agent, whereupon the Administrative Agent promptly shall request of the Borrower the additional reports or information reasonably specified by such Lender, and, upon receipt thereof from the Borrower or such Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender, and (iii) any time that the Administrative Agent renders to the Borrower a statement regarding the Loan Account, the Administrative Agent shall send a copy of such statement to each Lender.

provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnified Person, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, actual losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses or disbursements resulted from (x) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or of any affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent or attorney-in-fact of such Indemnified Person, as determined by the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, (y) a material breach of its obligations under the Credit Documents by such Indemnified Person or of any affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent or attorney-in-fact of such Indemnified Person as determined by the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction and (z) any dispute solely among Indemnified Persons other than claims against the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as the Administrative Agent or other similar role hereunder and under any of the other Credit Documents (other than claims arising out of any act or omission of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries).  To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless the Administrative Agent or any Lender set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.01, so long as no Event of Default exists and is continuing, any payments required under this clause (a) shall be due twenty (20) days after receipt of a detailed invoice for such costs and expenses.

118

(b) To the full extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any each other party, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or incidental damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided, however, that the foregoing provisions shall not relieve the Borrower of its indemnification obligations as provided in Section 12.01(a) to the extent any Indemnified Person is found liable for any such damages.  No Indemnified Person shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent the liability of such Indemnified Person results from such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

(c) The Borrower agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and any affected Lender, which consent(s) will not be unreasonably withheld, the Credit Parties will not enter into any settlement of a claim in respect of the subject matter of clause (iii) of Section 12.01(a) unless such settlement includes an explicit and unconditional release from the party bringing such claim of all Indemnified Persons.

12.02. Right of Setoff.  (a)  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to any Credit Party or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) (other than accounts used exclusively for payroll, taxes, fiduciary and trust purposes, and employee benefits) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including, without limitation, by branches and agencies of the Administrative Agent or such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of the Credit Parties to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all interests in Obligations purchased by such Lender pursuant to Section 12.04(b), and all other claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured; provided, that any recovery by any Lender or its Affiliates pursuant to its setoff rights under this Section 12.02 is subject to the provisions of Section 12.06(d).

119

120

(c) The Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) the Administrative Agent will make available to the Lenders materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder (collectively, the “the Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on Intralinks, SyndTrak or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or their securities) (each, a “Public Lender”).  The Borrower hereby agrees that (w) all the Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking the Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat such the Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such the Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 12.16); (y) all the Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated as “Public Investor;” and (z) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat the Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not marked as “Public Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following the Borrower Materials shall be marked “PUBLIC”, unless the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent promptly that any such document contains material non-public information: (1) the Credit Documents and (2) notification of changes in the terms of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents.

(d) Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to Communications that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to the Borrower or its securities for purposes of United States Federal or state securities laws.  The Borrower agrees to use all commercially reasonable efforts to xxxx any document provided under Section 8.01(a), (b) and (e) “PUBLIC.”

(e) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”.  NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES WARRANTS THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS.  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 THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM.  IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY CREDIT PARTY, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY CREDIT PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY SUCH PERSON IS FOUND IN A FINAL RULING BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH PERSON’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE, BAD FAITH OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

121

(f) The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Credit Documents.  Each Lender agrees that receipt of notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Credit Documents.  Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

(g) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Credit Document in any other manner specified in such Credit Document.

12.04. Benefit of Agreement; Assignments; Participations.  (a)  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective permitted successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights, obligations or interest hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lenders; provided, further, that, although any Lender may grant participations to Eligible Transferees in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer or assign all or any portion of its Commitments hereunder except as provided in Sections 2.13 and 12.04(b)) and the participant shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder; provided, further, that no Lender shall transfer or grant any participation (A) under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates, which shall not be considered to be a reduction in the rate of interest or fees) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment or a mandatory prepayment of the Loans shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment (or the available portion thereof) or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents, including any Security Document) supporting the Loans hereunder in which such participant is participating and (B) to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or Affiliates so long as the provisions set forth in Section 12.04(f) are satisfied.  In the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.

122

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender (or any Lender together with one or more other Lenders) may (x) assign all or a portion of its Commitments and related outstanding Obligations hereunder to (i)(A) its parent company and/or any affiliate of such Lender which is at least fifty percent (50%) owned by such Lender or its parent company or (B) to one or more other Lenders or any affiliate of any such other Lender which is at least fifty percent (50%) owned by such other Lender or its parent company (provided, that any Related Fund shall be treated as an affiliate of such other Lender for the purposes of this sub-clause (x)(i)(B))), or (ii) in the case of any Lender that is a fund or commingled investment vehicle that invests in bank loans, any Related Fund, or (y) assign all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default under Section 10.01 or 10.05 then exists and is continuing, the Borrower may otherwise agree) in the aggregate for the assigning Lender or assigning Lenders, of such Commitments and related outstanding Obligations hereunder to one or more Eligible Transferees (treating any fund or commingled investment vehicle that invests in bank loans and any Related Fund as a single assignor or Eligible Transferee (as applicable) (if any) for purposes of determining whether the minimum assignment requirement is met), each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (by which such assignee represents and warrants that it is an Eligible Transferee legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Assumption Agreement); provided, that (i) at such time, Schedule 1.01A shall be deemed modified to reflect the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans, as the case may be, of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders, (ii) [Intentionally Omitted], (iii) the consent of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default under Section 10.01 or 10.05 then exists, the Borrower, shall be required in connection with any such assignment pursuant to clause (y) above (such consent, in any case, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided, that (A) the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof and (B) the consent of the Borrower shall not be required for initial assignments by Xxxxx Fargo, (iv) unless waived by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500 (provided, that only one such fee shall be payable in the case of one or more concurrent assignments by or to investment funds managed or advised by the same investment advisor or an affiliated investment advisor), (v) no such transfer or assignment will be effective until recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register pursuant to Section 12.15, (vi) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire (in which the assignee shall designate one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Credit Parties and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws), and (vii) notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, (x) no assignment of any Loans or Commitments may be made to the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower.  To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 12.04(b), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments and outstanding Loans.  At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 12.04(b) to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder, the respective assignee Lender shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent the appropriate IRS Forms and any other certificates described in Section 4.04(b), (c) or (d).  To the extent that an assignment of all or any portion of a Lender’s Commitments and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 2.13 or this Section 12.04(b) would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 2.10 or 4.04 from those being charged by the respective assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower, in accordance with and pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective assignment).

123

(c) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Loans hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank, any Lender which is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Loans to its trustee or to a collateral agent providing credit or credit support to such Lender in support of its obligations to such trustee, such collateral agent or a holder of such obligations, as the case may be.  No pledge pursuant to this clause (c) shall release the transferor Lender from any of its obligations hereunder.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPV”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided, that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof.  The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender.  Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender).  In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof.  In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.04, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV.

(e) Any Lender which assigns all of its Commitments and/or Loans hereunder in accordance with Section 12.04(b) shall cease to constitute a “Lender” hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.10, 2.11(a), 4.04, 11.06, 12.01 and 12.06), which shall survive as to such assigning Lender.

(f) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not ‎(x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or participant or prospective Lender or participant is a Disqualified ‎Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any ‎Disqualified Institution.

124

12.05. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.  No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower or any other Credit Party and the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder.  The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender would otherwise have.  No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

12.06. Payments Pro Rata.  (a)  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of any Obligations hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Lenders entitled thereto (other than any Lender that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of any such payment) pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.

(b) Each of the Lenders agrees that, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents), which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations of the respective Credit Party to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all the Lenders in such amount; provided, that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lenders, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

12.07. [Intentionally Omitted].

12.08.

12.11. Headings Descriptive.  The headings of the several sections and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

12.12. Amendment or Waiver; etc.  (a)  Neither this Agreement nor any other Credit Document nor any terms hereof or thereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the respective Credit Parties party hereto or thereto and the Required Lenders (although additional parties may be added to (and annexes may be modified to reflect such additions), and Restricted Subsidiaries of the Borrower may be released from, the Subsidiaries Guaranty and the Security Documents in accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof without the consent of the other Credit Parties party thereto or the Required Lenders); provided, that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall, without the consent, in the case of following clauses (i) through (vii), of each Lender (with Obligations being directly and adversely affected thereby in the case of following clauses (i)(y) and (vii) or whose Obligations are being extended in the case of following clause (i)(x)) or, in the case of following clause (viii), each SPV being directly affected, (i)(x) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan, or (y) reduce the rate or extend the scheduled time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce (or forgive) the principal amount thereof, (ii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under the Security Documents or all or substantially all of the value of the Subsidiaries Guaranties (in each case, except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents, including any Security Document), (iii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 12.12(a), (iv) reduce the “majority” voting threshold specified in the definition of Required Lenders, (v) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 12.06, (vii) amend, modify, or eliminate the definition of Borrowing Base or any of the defined terms (including the definitions of Eligible Accounts) that are used in such definition to the extent that any such change results in more credit being made available to the Borrower based upon the Borrowing Base, but not otherwise, or the definition of Revolving Loan Limit, or (viii) modify the protections afforded to an SPV pursuant to the provisions of Section 12.04(d); provided, further, that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall (1) increase the Commitments of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment or a mandatory repayment of Loans shall not constitute an increase of the Commitment of any Lender, and that an increase in the available portion of any Commitment of any Lender shall not constitute an increase of the Commitment of such Lender), (2) without the consent of the Administrative Agent, amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 11 or any other provision as same relates to the rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent, or (3) without the consent of Collateral Agent, amend, modify or waive any provision relating to the rights or obligations of the Collateral Agent.

(b) If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of or to any of the provisions of this Agreement as contemplated by clauses (i) through (vii), inclusive, of the first proviso to Section 12.12(a), the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained, then the Borrower shall have the right, so long as all non-consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated as described in either clause (A) or (B) below, to replace each such non-consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 12.04 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such replacement Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination; provided, that, unless the Commitments which are terminated and Loans which are repaid pursuant to preceding clause (B) are immediately replaced in full at such time through the addition of new Lenders or the increase of the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of existing Lenders (who in each case must specifically consent thereto), then in the case of any action pursuant to preceding clause (B), the Required Lenders (determined after giving effect to the proposed action) shall specifically consent thereto; provided, further, that the Borrower shall not have the right to replace a Lender, terminate its Commitment or repay its Loans solely as a result of the exercise of such Lender’s rights (and the withholding of any required consent by such Lender) pursuant to the second proviso to Section 12.12(a).

127

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent if (i) by the terms of such agreement the Commitment of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment and (ii) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment (including pursuant to an assignment to a replacement Lender in accordance with Section 12.04) in full of this principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.

(d) [Intentionally Omitted.]

(e) [Intentionally Omitted.]

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.12, (x) Security Documents (including any Additional Security Documents) and related documents executed by Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be amended, supplemented and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Person if such amendment, supplement or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local Law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities, omissions, mistakes or defects or (iii) to cause such Security Document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and (y) if following the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent and any Credit Party shall have jointly identified an ambiguity, inconsistency, obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Credit Documents (other than the Security Documents), then the Administrative Agent and the Credit Parties shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Credit Documents if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

12.13. Survival.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties in the Credit Documents and in the reports, certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Credit Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Obligation (other than any contingent obligation)  or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.  The provisions of Sections 2.10, 2.11(a), 4.04, 11, 12.01 and 12.08 shall survive the execution, delivery and termination of this Agreement and the making and repayment of the Obligations.

128

12.14. Domicile of Loans.  Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or for the account of any office, Restricted Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that a transfer of Loans pursuant to this Section 12.14 would, at the time of such transfer, result in increased costs under Section 2.10, 2.11(a) or 4.04 from those being charged by the respective Lender prior to such transfer, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective transfer).

12.15. Register.  The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as its agent, solely for purposes of this Section 12.15, to maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Commitments from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender.  Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans.  With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitments shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitments and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitments and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor.  The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register upon and only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 12.04(b).  Upon such acceptance and recordation, the assignee specified therein shall be treated as a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Loans are registered obligations and the right, title and interest of the Lenders in and to such Loans shall be transferable only in accordance with the terms hereof.  This Section 12.15 shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Section 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

12.16. Confidentiality.  (a)  Subject to the provisions of clause (b) of this Section 12.16, each Lender agrees that it will not disclose without the prior consent of the Borrower (other than to any of its Related Parties or counsel, or to another Lender if such Lender or such Lender’s holding or parent company in its sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such Information (as defined below); provided, that such Persons shall be instructed to keep such Information confidential pursuant to the terms of this Section 12.16 to the same extent as such Lender) any Information with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which is now or in the future furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document; provided, that any Lender may disclose any such Information (i) (x) as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this Section 12.16(a) by the respective Lender or (y) as has become available to such Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries other than by virtue of a breach of such source’s confidentiality obligations to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries known to such Lender, (ii) as may be required in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state or Federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (iii) as may be required in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation or in connection with the exercise of any remedies under the Credit Documents, (iv) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender, (v) to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, (vi) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in any swap, Hedge or similar agreement (or to any such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor), so long as such contractual counterparty (or such professional advisor) agrees in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Section 12.16, (vii) to any prospective or actual transferee or participant in connection with any contemplated transfer or participation of any of the Notes or Commitments or any interest therein by such Lender and (viii) to any rating agency when required by it; provided, that such prospective transferee or participant agrees in writing to be bound by the confidentiality provisions contained in this Section 12.16; provided, further, that, to the extent permitted pursuant to any applicable law, order, regulation or ruling, and other than in connection with credit and other bank examinations conducted in the ordinary course with respect to such Lender, in the case of any disclosure pursuant to the foregoing clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (vi) or (vii) such Lender will use its commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Borrower in advance of such disclosure so as to afford the Borrower the opportunity to protect the confidentiality of the Information proposed to be so disclosed.  For the purposes of this Section 12.16, “Information” shall mean all information received from the Borrower and related to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that was available to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to its disclosure by the Borrower.  Any person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 12.16 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such person would accord to its own confidential information.

129

(b) The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Lender may share with any of its affiliates, and such affiliates may share with such Lender, any Information related to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any non-public customer information regarding the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries); provided, that such Persons shall be instructed to keep such Information confidential pursuant to the terms of this Section 12.16 to the same extent as such Lender.

12.17. Special Provisions Regarding Pledges of Equity Interests in, and Promissory Notes Owed by, Persons Not Organized in the United States.  The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the provisions of the various Security Documents executed and delivered by the Credit Parties require that, among other things, promissory notes executed by, and Equity Interests in, various Persons owned by the respective Credit Party be pledged, and delivered for pledge, pursuant to the Security Documents and subject to the terms conditions and exceptions contained therein.  The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that each Credit Party shall be required to take all actions under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such Credit Party is organized to create and perfect all security interests (to the extent such security interests can be perfected by the filings or other actions required under the Security Documents) granted pursuant to the various Security Documents and to take all actions under the laws of the United States and any State thereof to perfect the security interests in the Equity Interests of, and promissory notes issued by, any Person organized under the laws of said jurisdictions (in each case, to the extent said Equity Interests or promissory notes are owned by any Credit Party).  Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, to the extent any Security Document requires or provides for the pledge of promissory notes issued by, or Equity Interests in, any Person organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than those specified in the immediately preceding sentence, it is acknowledged that, as of the Effective Date, no actions have been required to be taken to perfect, under local law of the jurisdiction of the Person who issued the respective promissory notes or whose Equity Interests are pledged, under the Security Documents.  The Borrower hereby agrees that, following any request by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders to do so, the Borrower will, and will cause its Restricted Subsidiaries to, take such actions under the local law of any jurisdiction with respect to which such actions have not already been taken as are determined by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders to be necessary or advisable in order to fully perfect (to the extent such security interests can be perfected by the filings or other actions required under the Security Documents), preserve or protect the security interests granted pursuant to the various Security Documents under the laws of such jurisdictions; provided, however, that no such request shall be made by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders if the Collateral Agent determines in its Permitted Discretion that the costs of taking any such action are excessive in relation to the value of the security afforded thereby.  If requested to do so pursuant to this Section 12.17, all such actions shall be taken in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.17 and Section 8.11 and within the time periods set forth therein.  All conditions and representations contained in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to effect the foregoing and so that same are not violated by reason of the failure to take actions under local law (but only with respect to Equity Interests in, and promissory notes issued by, Persons organized under laws of jurisdictions other than the United States and any State thereof) not required to be taken in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.17; provided, that to the extent any representation or warranty would not be true because the foregoing actions were not taken, the respective representation of warranties shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects at such time as the respective action is required to be taken in accordance with the foregoing provisions of Section 8.11 and this Section 12.17.

130

12.18. PATRIOT Act.  Each Lender subject to the USA PATRIOT Improvement and Reauthorization Act, Pub. L. 109-177 (signed into law March 9, 2009) (as amended from time to time, the “PATRIOT Act”) hereby notifies each Credit Party that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and the other Credit Parties, which information includes the name, address and taxpayer identification of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and the other Credit Parties in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

12.19. Post-Closing Actions.  (a)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be required to take the actions specified in Schedule 12.19 as promptly as commercially practicable, and in any event within the time periods set forth in Schedule 12.19 (as such time periods may be extended at the Permitted Discretion of and by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders).

(b) All conditions precedent and representations contained in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to effect the foregoing (and to permit the taking of the actions described above within the time periods required above, rather than as elsewhere provided in the Credit Documents); provided, that (x) to the extent any representation and warranty would not be true because the foregoing actions were not taken on the Effective Date, the respective representation and warranty shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects at the time the respective action is taken (or was required to be taken) in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.19 and (y) all representations and warranties relating to the Security Documents shall be required to be true immediately after the actions required to be taken by Section 12.19 have been taken (or were required to be taken).  The acceptance of the benefits of each Credit Event shall constitute a representation, warranty and covenant by the Borrower to each of the Lenders that the actions required pursuant to this Section 12.19 will be, or have been, taken within the relevant time periods referred to in this Section 12.19 and that, at such time, all representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall then be true and correct in all material respects without any modification pursuant to this Section 12.19, and the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the failure to take any of the actions required above, within the relevant time periods required above, shall give rise to an immediate Event of Default pursuant to this Agreement.

12.20. Interest Rate Limitation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Credit Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Credit Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”).  If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower.  In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

131

12.21. FCC Ownership and Attribution Rules.  No Lender shall, by virtue of making a Loan or by any subsequent action (including but not limited to the grant of a participation or the assignment of a Lender’s Commitments, rights or obligations under this Agreement), cause a Lender to acquire an “attributable” interest in the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower which causes the Borrower, any Subsidiary of the Borrower or such Lender to be in violation of the FCC’s media ownership rules.

12.22. Lender Action.  Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against any Credit Party or any other obligor under any of the Credit Documents (including the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Credit Party, unless expressly provided for herein or in any other Credit Document, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.  The provisions of this Section 12.22 are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Credit Party.

12.23. Obligations Absolute.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all obligations of the Credit Parties hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(a) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any Credit Party;

(b) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Credit Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto against any Credit Party;

(c) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from any Credit Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(d) any exchange, release or non-perfection or loss of priority of any Liens on any or all of the Collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations;

(e) any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof or any Credit Document; or

(f) any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Credit Parties.

12.24. Bank Product Providers.  Each Bank Product Provider, in its capacity as such, shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof and of the provisions of the other Credit Documents for purposes of any reference in a Credit Document to the parties for whom Administrative Agent is acting.  Administrative Agent hereby agrees to act as agent for such Bank Product Providers and, by virtue of entering into a Bank Product Agreement, the applicable Bank Product Provider shall be automatically deemed to have appointed Administrative Agent as its agent and to have accepted the benefits of the Credit Documents; it being understood and agreed that the rights and benefits of each Bank Product Provider under the Credit Documents consist exclusively of such Bank Product Provider’s being a beneficiary of the Liens and security interests (and, if applicable, guarantees) granted to Administrative Agent and the right to share in payments and collections out of the Collateral as more fully set forth herein.  In addition, each Bank Product Provider, by virtue of entering into a Bank Product Agreement, shall be automatically deemed to have agreed that Administrative Agent shall have the right, but shall have no obligation, to establish, maintain, relax, or release reserves in respect of the Bank Product Obligations and that if reserves are established there is no obligation on the part of Administrative Agent to determine or insure whether the amount of any such reserve is appropriate or not.  In connection with any such distribution of payments or proceeds of Collateral, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due or owing to any Bank Product Provider unless such Bank Product Provider has provided a written certification (setting forth a reasonably detailed calculation) to Administrative Agent as to the amounts that are due and owing to it and such written certification is received by Administrative Agent a reasonable period of time prior to the making of such distribution.  Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to calculate the amount due and payable with respect to any Bank Products, but may rely upon the written certification of the amount due and payable from the relevant Bank Product Provider.  In the absence of an updated certification, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume that the amount due and payable to the relevant Bank Product Provider is the amount last certified to Administrative Agent by such Bank Product Provider as being due and payable (less any distributions made to such Bank Product Provider on account thereof).  The Borrower may obtain Bank Products from any Bank Product Provider, although the Borrower is not required to do so.  The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Bank Product Provider has committed to provide any Bank Products and that the providing of Bank Products by any Bank Product Provider is in the sole and absolute discretion of such Bank Product Provider.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, no provider or holder of any Bank Product shall have any voting or approval rights hereunder (or be deemed a Lender) solely by virtue of its status as the provider or holder of such agreements or products or the Obligations owing thereunder, nor shall the consent of any such provider or holder be required (other than in its capacity as a Lender, to the extent applicable) for any matter hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents, including as to any matter relating to the Collateral or the release of Collateral or any Subsidiary Guarantor.
