Related to Change in Commitments Additional Lender

• Increase of Commitments; Additional Lenders (a) From time to time after the Closing Date and in accordance with this Section, the Borrower and one or more Increasing Lenders or Additional Lenders (each as defined below) may enter into an agreement to increase the aggregate Revolving Commitments hereunder (each such increase, an “Incremental Commitment”) so long as the following conditions are satisfied:

• Increase in Commitments At any time following the Agreement Date and prior to the Termination Date the aggregate amount of the Commitments may, at the option of the Borrower, be increased by an amount not in excess of $200,000,000, either by new Banks establishing such additional Commitments or by one or more then-existing Banks increasing their Commitments (each such increase by either means, a "Commitment Increase," and each such new Bank or Bank increasing its Commitment, an "Additional Commitment Bank"); provided that (a) each Additional Commitment Bank shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, (b) no Default shall exist immediately prior to or after the effective date of such Commitment Increase, (c) each such Commitment Increase shall be in an amount not less than $10,000,000 and multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof, (d) no such Commitment Increase shall become effective unless and until the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Additional Commitment Banks shall have executed and delivered an agreement substantially in the form of Schedule 1.09 (a "Commitment Increase Supplement"), and (d) the increase in the Total Commitments shall not exceed $200,000,000. On the effective date of such Commitment Increase, each Additional Commitment Bank shall purchase, for assignment, from each other existing Bank the portion of such other Bank's RC Loans and Letter of Credit Participations outstanding at such time such that, after giving effect to such assignments, the respective aggregate amount of RC Loans and Letter of Credit Participations of each Bank shall be equal to such Bank's pro rata share (based on the total Commitments, as increased pursuant hereto) of the aggregate RC Loans and Letter of Credit Participations outstanding. The purchase price for the RC Loans and Letter of Credit Participations so assigned shall be the principal amount of the RC Loans and unreimbursed Drawings so assigned plus the amount of accrued and unpaid interest thereon on the date of assignment. Upon payment of such purchase price, each other Bank shall be automatically deemed to have sold and made such an assignment to such Additional Commitment Bank and shall, to the extent of the interest assigned, be released from its obligations under this Agreement, and such Additional Commitment Bank shall be automatically deemed to have purchased and assumed such an assignment from each other Bank and, if not already a Bank hereunder, shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement.

• Increase in Commitment At any time during the Commitment Increase Period, Borrower may request that Agent increase the Total Commitment Amount from the Closing Commitment Amount up to an amount that shall not exceed the Maximum Commitment Amount. Each such increase shall be in an amount of at least Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000), increased by increments of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000), and may be made by either (i) proportionally increasing, for one or more Lenders, with their prior written consent, their respective Revolving Credit Commitments, or (ii) including one or more Additional Lenders, each with a new Revolving Credit Commitment, as a party to this Agreement (collectively, the “Additional Commitment”). During the Commitment Increase Period, the Lenders agree that Agent, in its sole discretion, may permit one or more Additional Commitments upon satisfaction of the following requirements: (A) each Additional Lender, if any, shall be an Eligible Transferee and shall execute an Additional Lender Assumption Agreement, (B) Agent shall provide to Borrower and each Lender a revised Schedule 1 to this Agreement, including revised Commitment Percentages for each of the Lenders, if appropriate, at least three Business Days prior to the effectiveness of such Additional Commitments (each an “Additional Lender Assumption Effective Date”), and (C) Borrower shall execute and deliver to Agent and the Lenders such replacement or additional Revolving Credit Notes as shall be required by Agent (and requested by the Lenders). The Lenders hereby authorize Agent to execute each Additional Lender Assumption Agreement on behalf of the Lenders. On each Additional Lender Assumption Effective Date, the Lenders shall make adjustments among themselves with respect to the Revolving Loans then outstanding and amounts of principal, interest, facility fees, utilization fees and other amounts paid or payable with respect thereto as shall be necessary, in the opinion of Agent, in order to reallocate among such Lenders such outstanding amounts, based on the revised Commitment Percentages and to otherwise carry out fully the intent and terms of this Section 2.9(b). Borrower shall not request any increase in the Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.9(b) if a Default or an Event of Default shall then exist, or immediately after giving effect to any such increase would exist.

• Additional Commitment Lenders The Company shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, on or before the applicable Maturity Date for any Non-Extending Lender to replace such Non-Extending Lender with, and add as “Lenders” under this Agreement in place thereof, one or more financial institutions that are not Ineligible Institutions (each, an “Additional Commitment Lender”) approved by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the procedures provided in Section 2.19(b), each of which Additional Commitment Lenders shall have entered into an Assignment and Assumption (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04, with the Company or replacement Lender obligated to pay any applicable processing or recordation fee) with such Non-Extending Lender, pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lenders shall, effective on or before the applicable Maturity Date for such Non-Extending Lender, assume a Commitment (and, if any such Additional Commitment Lender is already a Lender, its Commitment shall be in addition to such Lender’s Commitment hereunder on such date). Prior to any Non-Extending Lender being replaced by one or more Additional Commitment Lenders pursuant hereto, such Non-Extending Lender may elect, in its sole discretion, by giving irrevocable notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Company (which notice shall set forth such Lender’s new Maturity Date), to become an Extending Lender. The Administrative Agent may effect such amendments to this Agreement as are reasonably necessary to provide for any such extensions with the consent of the Company but without the consent of any other Lenders.

• Additional Commitments If applicable, the Participant agrees, prior to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units granted pursuant to this Award Agreement that he or she shall deliver to the Secretary of the Company or the Secretary’s office, or such other place as may be determined by the Committee, payment in cash (via cashier’s check or such other form acceptable to the Company), or such other method as the Committee may approve, for the Withholding Obligation, if the Participant desires to pay the Withholding Obligation in lieu of the Company exercising its entitlement in the first sentence of Section 6 hereof.

• Increase in Revolving Commitments (a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request that the total Revolving Commitment be increased by an aggregate amount not to exceed the Incremental Revolving Facility Amount at such time. Upon the receipt of such request by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall deliver a copy thereof to each Revolving Lender. Such notice shall set forth the amount of the requested increase (which shall be in minimum increments of $500,000 and a minimum amount of $2,500,000 or equal to the remaining Incremental Revolving Facility Amount) and the date on which such increase is requested to become effective (which shall be not less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice and which, in any event, must be prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date), and shall offer each Revolving Lender the opportunity to increase its Revolving Commitment by its Pro Rata Percentage of the proposed increased amount. Each Revolving Lender shall, by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent given not more than 10 days after the date of the Administrative Agent’s notice, either agree to increase its Revolving Commitment by all or a portion of the offered amount (each Revolving Lender so agreeing being an “Increasing Revolving Lender”) or decline to increase its Revolving Commitment (and any Revolving Lender that does not deliver such a notice within such period of 10 days shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Revolving Commitment) (each Revolving Lender so declining or being deemed to have declined being a Non-Increasing Revolving Lender”). In the event that, on the 10th day after the Administrative Agent shall have delivered a notice pursuant to the second sentence of this paragraph, the Increasing Revolving Lenders shall have agreed pursuant to the preceding sentence to increase their Revolving Commitments by an aggregate amount less than the increase requested by the Borrower, such Borrower may arrange for one or more banks or other entities (any such bank or other entity being called an “Augmenting Revolving Lender”), which may include any Lender, to extend Revolving Commitments or increase their existing Revolving Commitments in an aggregate amount equal to the unsubscribed amount; provided, however, that each Augmenting Revolving Lender shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and the Borrower and each Augmenting Revolving Lender shall execute all such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence its Revolving Commitment and/or its status as a Revolving Lender hereunder, Any such increase may be made in an amount that is less than the increase requested by the Borrower if such Borrower is unable to arrange for, or chooses not to arrange for, Augmenting Revolving Lenders.

• Optional Increase in Commitments The Borrower may, from time to time, by means of a letter delivered to the Administrative Agent substantially in the form of Exhibit C, request that the Aggregate Commitment Amount be increased by an aggregate amount (for all such increases) not exceeding $250,000,000 by (a) increasing the Commitment Amount of one or more Lenders that have agreed to such increase (in their sole discretion) and/or (b) adding one or more commercial banks or other Persons as a party hereto (each an “Additional Lender”) with a Commitment Amount in an amount agreed to by any such Additional Lender; provided that (i) any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount of $25,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of $1,000,000; (ii) no Additional Lender shall be added as a party hereto without the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuers (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld) or if an Event of Default or an Unmatured Event of Default exists; (iii) subject to Section 8.07(h), no such increase shall be effective without the written consent of the LC Issuers (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and (iv) the Borrower may not request an increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount unless the Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent (with a copy for each Lender) a certificate (A) stating that any applicable governmental authority has approved such increase, (B) attaching evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, of each such approval and (C) stating that the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01 are correct on and as of the date of such certificate as though made on and as of such date and that no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default exists on such date. Any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be effective three Business Days after the date on which the Administrative Agent has received and accepted the applicable increase letter in the form of Annex 1 to Exhibit C (in the case of an increase in the Commitment Amount of an existing Lender) or assumption letter in the form of Annex 2 to Exhibit C (in the case of the addition of a commercial bank or other Person as a new Lender). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section 2.18 and of the Commitment Amount and Pro Rata Share of each Lender after giving effect thereto. The Borrower shall prepay any Advances outstanding on the Increase Effective Date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 8.04(b)) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Advances ratable among the Lenders in accordance with any revised Pro Rata Shares arising from any non-ratable increase in the Commitment Amounts under this Section 2.18; provided that, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each increasing Lender and Additional Lender, as applicable, may make arrangements satisfactory to such parties to cause an increasing Lender or an Additional Lender to temporarily hold risk participations in the outstanding Advances of the other Lenders (rather than fund its Pro Rata Share of all outstanding Advances concurrently with the applicable increase) with a view toward minimizing breakage costs and transfers of funds in connection with any increase in the Aggregate Commitment Amount. To the extent that any increase pursuant to this Section 2.18 is not expressly authorized pursuant to resolutions or consents delivered pursuant to Section 3.01(b)(i), the Borrower shall, prior to the effectiveness of such increase, deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by an authorized officer of the Borrower certifying and attaching the resolutions or consents that have been adopted to approve or consent to such increase.

• Revolving Commitment Increase (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12.1, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower shall have the right from time to time, to cause an increase in the Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders (a “Revolving Commitment Increase”) by adding to this Agreement one or more additional Eligible Assignees that are not already Revolving Lenders hereunder and that are reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, each Facing Agent and the Swing Line Lender (each, a “New Revolving Lender”) or by allowing one or more existing Revolving Lenders to increase their respective Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) both before and immediately after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase, no Event of Default or Unmatured Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing as of the effective date of such Revolving Commitment Increase (such date, the “Revolving Commitment Increase Date”), (ii) no such Revolving Commitment Increase shall be in an amount less than $10,000,000 (unless the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments then in effect is greater than $390,000,000), (iii) after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments shall not exceed $600,000,000, (iv) no Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment shall be increased without such Revolving Lender’s prior written consent (which consent may be given or withheld in such Revolving Lender’s sole and absolute discretion) and (v) the only Revolving Commitment Increase that may occur on or after the Tenth Amendment Effective Date is a single Revolving Commitment Increase in an aggregate amount not exceeding $200,000,000 on (and subject to the occurrence of) the Eleventh Amendment Effective Date. The foregoing clause (i) and the following Section 2.10(b) and Section 2.10(e) shall not be applicable to the 2014 Revolving Commitment Increase and the only conditions to the 2014 Revolving Commitment Increase shall be those conditions set forth in Section 4 of the Eleventh Amendment.

• Additional Lenders Each of the Lenders party hereto that were not “Lenders” under the Existing Credit Agreement (each an “Additional Lender”, and collectively, the “Additional Lenders”) hereby extends to the Borrowers, upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, such Additional Lender’s Commitment in the amount designated for such Additional Lender as set forth on Schedule 2.01, such Commitment being made on a several, and not joint and several, basis and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Each Additional Lender agrees that, upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, such Additional Lender will be a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such Additional Lender will promptly perform in accordance with the terms thereof all obligations and requirements which are required to be performed by a Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Additional Lender represents and warrants that (i) it has full power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and to become a Lender under this Agreement, (ii) from and after the Restatement Effective Date, it shall be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as a Lender hereunder and shall have the obligations of a Lender hereunder, (iii) it has received a copy of this Agreement, and has received or has been accorded the opportunity to receive copies of the Audited Financial Statements and such other documents and information as it deems appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement, and (iv) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend its Commitment to the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Each Additional Lender agrees that it will, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents. Each Additional Lender has submitted to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire duly completed by such Additional Lender to be used and relied upon by the Administrative Agent for all purposes of this Agreement.

• Revolving Committed Amount If at any time after the Closing Date, the sum of the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Revolving Loans plus outstanding Swingline Loans plus outstanding LOC Obligations shall exceed the Revolving Committed Amount, the Borrower shall immediately prepay the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans and (after all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans have been repaid) Cash Collateralize the LOC Obligations in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess (such prepayment to be applied as set forth in clause (vii) below).
