Related to Maturity Date Repayment Extension Option

• Maturity Date Extension The Borrower shall be entitled to extend the Maturity Date for up to two (2) six-month extensions; provided that (i) no Default then exists, (ii) the Borrower gives the Administrative Agent, at least ninety (90) days but no more than one hundred twenty (120) days prior to the initial Maturity Date or the First Extension Maturity Date, as the case may be, written notice of such extension, (iii) on or prior to the initial Maturity Date or the First Extension Maturity Date, as the case may be, the Borrower pays to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Banks an extension fee equal to 0.075% of the Total Commitments that will exist as of the first day of the first or second six-month extension, as the case may be (the “Extension Fee”), and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall have received on or prior to the initial Maturity Date or the First Extension Maturity Date, as the case may be, for the account of each Bank a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Parent, dated as of the initial Maturity Date or the First Extension Maturity Date, as the case may be (the “Extension Date”), stating that: (a) the representations and warranties contained in Article IV are true and correct on and as of the applicable Extension Date as such representations and warranties may have changed based upon events or activities not prohibited by this Agreement, (b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such extension, and (c) the Borrower, Parent and each Material Subsidiary is in compliance with the covenants contained in Article VII immediately before and, on a pro forma basis, immediately after the extension, together with a Compliance Certificate or other reasonable supporting information demonstrating such compliance. The Borrower’s delivery of written notice to extend shall be irrevocable, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of any such notice. In connection with any such extension, the parties hereto shall execute any documents reasonably requested in connection with or to evidence such extension. ARTICLE II

• Optional Extension of Maturity The provisions of this Section 308 may be made applicable to any series of Securities pursuant to Section 301 (with such modifications, additions or substitutions as may be specified pursuant to such Section 301). The Stated Maturity of any Security of such series may be extended at the option of the Company for the period or periods specified on the face of such Security (each an "Extension Period") up to but not beyond the date (the "Final Maturity") set forth on the face of such Security. The Company may exercise such option with respect to any Security by notifying the Trustee of such exercise at least 50 but not more than 60 days prior to the Stated Maturity of such Security in effect prior to the exercise of such option (the "Original Stated Maturity"). If the Company exercises such option, the Trustee shall transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 106, to the Holder of such Security not later than 40 days prior to the Original Stated Maturity a notice (the "Extension Notice") indicating (i) the election of the Company to extend the Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity, (iii) the interest rate applicable to the Extension Period and (iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during such Extension Period. Upon the Trustee's transmittal of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of such Security shall be extended automatically and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, such Security will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such Extension Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days before the Original Stated Maturity of such Security, the Company may, at its option, revoke the interest rate provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher interest rate for the Extension Period by causing the Trustee to transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 106, notice of such higher interest rate to the Holder of such Security. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Securities with respect to which the Stated Maturity is extended will bear such higher interest rate. If the Company extends the Maturity of any Security, the Holder will have the option to elect repayment of such Security by the Company on the Original Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus interest accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on the Original Stated Maturity once the Company has extended the Maturity thereof, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth in Article Thirteen for repayment at the option of Holders, except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to the Original Stated Maturity and except that, if the Holder has tendered any Security for repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice, the Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the Original Stated Maturity.

• Extension of the Expiry Date; Non-Extension Advance No earlier than the 60th day and no later than the 40th day prior to the then effective Expiry Date (unless such Expiry Date is on or after the date that is 15 days after the Final Legal Distribution Date for the Class A Certificates), the Borrower shall request that the Liquidity Provider extend the Expiry Date to the earlier of (i) the date that is 15 days after the Final Legal Distribution Date for the Class A Certificates and (ii) the date that is the day immediately preceding the 364th day occurring after the last day of the Consent Period (as hereinafter defined). Whether or not the Borrower has made such request, the Liquidity Provider shall advise the Borrower no earlier than the 40th day (or, if earlier, the date of the Liquidity Provider’s receipt of such request, if any, from the Borrower) and no later than the 25th day prior to the then effective Expiry Date (such period, the “Consent Period”), whether, in its sole discretion, it agrees to so extend the Expiry Date. If the Liquidity Provider advises the Borrower on or before the date on which the Consent Period ends that such Expiry Date shall not be so extended, or fails to irrevocably and unconditionally advise the Borrower on or before the date on which the Consent Period ends that such Expiry Date shall be so extended (and, in each case, if the Liquidity Provider shall not have been replaced in accordance with Section 3.5(e) of the Intercreditor Agreement), the Borrower shall be entitled on and after the date on which the Consent Period ends (but prior to the then effective Expiry Date) to request a Non-Extension Advance in accordance with Section 2.02(b) hereof and Section 3.5(d) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

• Extension Option The Borrower may request that the Commitments be extended for up to two additional one year periods by providing not less than 30 days’ written notice (the date of such notice, a “Notice Date”) to the Administrative Agent prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date. If a Bank agrees, in its individual and sole discretion (and with the approval of the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Banks, such approval, in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), to extend its Commitment (such Bank, an “Extending Bank”), it will notify the Administrative Agent, in writing, of its decision to do so no later than 15 days after the applicable Notice Date (such extension decision, a “Commitment Extension”). The Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower, in writing, of the Banks’ decisions promptly upon receipt thereof and in any event not later than one (1) Business Day after receipt thereof. The Extending Banks’ Commitments will be extended for an additional year from the then current Maturity Date so long as (i) the Commitments of the Extending Banks (after giving effect to any assumption by any Extending Banks of Commitments of Declining Banks as described below), together with the Commitments of any New Banks that replace any Declining Banks, represent more than 50% of the Total Commitments then in effect, and (ii) on the date of any request by the Borrower to extend the Commitments, the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.3 shall be satisfied. No Commitment Extension shall result in the then-existing Maturity Date being more than five (5) years from the effective date of such Commitment Extension. No Bank shall be required to consent to any such extension request or be required to increase its Commitment. The Maturity Date with respect to any Bank that declines or does not respond to the Borrower’s request for an extension of the Commitments (a “Declining Bank”) shall remain the then-existing Maturity Date (without regard to any extension of the Commitments of other Banks); provided that the Borrower shall continue to have the right to replace any such Declining Bank (with respect to all or any portion of its Commitment) following the effectiveness of any such extension. The Borrower will have the right to accept Commitments from any Eligible Assignee that is not a Bank in an aggregate amount up to the aggregate amount of the Commitments of any Declining Banks; provided that any Eligible Assignee proposed to be substituted for a Declining Bank (unless such Eligible Assignee is an affiliate of a Bank) must be approved by the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Banks, such approval, in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Borrower may only extend the Maturity Date twice during the term of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.7.

• Extension of Revolving Credit Maturity Date The Borrower shall have the right and option to extend the Revolving Credit Maturity Date in respect of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment or portion thereof, if reduced in accordance with §2.4, a total of two (2) times for a period of twelve (12) months each upon satisfaction of the following conditions precedent, which must be satisfied prior to the effectiveness of any extension of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date:

• Extension of Maturity Date (a) On any anniversary of the Closing Date prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrowers may request to extend the then-applicable Maturity Date (the “Existing Maturity Date”) for an additional one-year period (an “Extension Period”) to the date that is one year after the Existing Maturity Date (the “Requested Maturity Date”); provided that the Borrowers may extend the Maturity Date for a maximum two (2) such Extension Periods. The Borrowers may make such request in a notice given as herein provided and substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 2.8(a) (the “Extension of Maturity Date Request”) to the Administrative Agent not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days prior to any anniversary of the Closing Date, so long as (i) each of the representations and warranties contained in Section 7 and in the other Credit Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such notice and as of the commencement date of the relevant Extension Period as if made on and as of each date (or, if any such representation and warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date) and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such notice and as of the commencement date of the relevant Extension Period. Each Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, not later than a date 30 days after its receipt of any such notice from the Administrative Agent, notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its election to extend or not to extend the Existing Maturity Date with respect to its Commitment. Any Lender which shall not timely notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of its election to extend the Existing Maturity Date shall be deemed not to have elected to extend the Existing Maturity Date with respect to its Commitment (any Lender who timely notifies the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of an election not to extend or fails to timely notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent of its election being referred to as a “Terminating Lender” and all such Lenders, collectively, the “Terminating Lenders”). The election of any Lender to agree to a requested extension shall not obligate any other Lender to agree to such requested extension.

• Optional Extension of Stated Maturity The provisions of this Section 3.08 may be made applicable to any series of Securities pursuant to Section 3.01 (with such modifications, additions or substitutions as may be specified pursuant to such Section 3.01). The Stated Maturity of any Security of such series may be extended at the option of the Company for the period or periods specified on the face of such Security (each an "Extension Period") up to but not beyond the date (the "Final Maturity") set forth on the face of such Security. The Company may exercise such option with respect to any Security by notifying the Trustees of such exercise at least 50 but not more than 60 days prior to the Stated Maturity of such Security in effect prior to the exercise of such option (the "Original Stated Maturity"). If the Company exercises such option, the Trustees shall transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 1.07, to the Holder of such Security not later than 40 days prior to the Original Stated Maturity a notice (the "Extension Notice") indicating (i) the election of the Company to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity, (iii) the interest rate (if any) applicable to the Extension Period and (iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during such Extension Period. Upon the Trustees' transmittal of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of such Security shall be extended automatically and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, such Security will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such Extension Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days before the Original Stated Maturity of such Security, the Company may, at its option, revoke the interest rate provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher interest rate for the Extension Period by causing the Trustees to transmit, in the manner provided for in Section 1.07, notice of such higher interest rate to the Holder of such Security. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Securities with respect to which the Stated Maturity is extended will bear such higher interest rate. If the Company extends the Maturity of any Security, the Holder will have the option to elect repayment of such Security by the Company on the Original Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount thereof, plus interest accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on the Original Stated Maturity once the Company has extended the Maturity thereof, the Holder must follow the procedures set forth in Article Thirteen for repayment at the option of Holders, except that the period for delivery or notification to the Trustees shall be at least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to the Original Stated Maturity and except that, if the Holder has tendered any Security for repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice, the Holder may by written notice to the Trustees revoke such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before the Original Stated Maturity.

• Conditions Subsequent to the Initial Extension of Credit The obligation of the Lender Group (or any member thereof) to continue to make Advances (or otherwise extend credit hereunder) is subject to the fulfillment, on or before the date applicable thereto, of each of the conditions subsequent set forth below (the failure by Borrowers to so perform or cause to be performed constituting an Event of Default):

• Extension of the Maturity Date (a) Borrower shall have the option to extend the term of the Loan beyond the Initial Maturity Date for one year, until the First Extended Maturity Date, upon satisfaction of the following terms and conditions:

• Optional Prepayments with Make-Whole Amount (a) The Company may, at its option, upon notice as provided below, prepay at any time all, or from time to time any part of, any Series of the Notes, in an amount not less than 10% of the aggregate principal amount of such Series of the Notes then outstanding (but if in the case of a partial prepayment, then against each tranche within such Series of Notes in proportion to the aggregate principal amount outstanding of each tranche of such Series), at 100% of the principal amount so prepaid, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment, plus the Make-Whole Amount determined for the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount. The Company will give each holder of the Series of Notes to be prepaid written notice of each optional prepayment under this Section 8.2 not less than 10 days and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify such date, the aggregate principal amount of the Series of the Notes to be prepaid on such date, the principal amount of each Note held by such holder to be prepaid (determined in accordance with Section 8.3), and the interest to be paid on the prepayment date with respect to such principal amount being prepaid, and shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer as to the estimated Make-Whole Amount due in connection with such prepayment (calculated as if the date of such notice were the date of the prepayment), setting forth the details of such computation. Two Business Days prior to such prepayment, the Company shall deliver to each holder of the Series of Notes to be prepaid a certificate of a Senior Financial Officer specifying the calculation of such Make-Whole Amount as of the specified prepayment date.
