WHEREAS, in connection with the Transactions (as defined below), the Borrower has requested that the Lenders and the Administrative Agent provide the Bridge Facility, and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent are willing to do so on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1

DEFINITIONS AND ACCOUNTING TERMS

1.01 Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

“A&E Puts” means any exercise of the put rights and the issuance of the contemplated guarantee under the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of A&E Television Networks, LLC (as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time; provided that such amendment, modification or supplement does not materially and adversely affect the ability of the Borrower to satisfy the Obligations).

“Acquisition” means (a) any purchase or other acquisition of assets or series of related purchases or other acquisitions of assets by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (including by way of asset or stock purchase, swap or merger) other than from the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or (b) the designation by the Borrower of an Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary.

“Acquisition Cash Flow Value” has the meaning set forth in the definition of Material Acquisition.

“Act” has the meaning set forth in Section 10.26.

“Administrative Agent” means JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as administrative agent under any of the Loan Documents, or any successor administrative agent permitted under the Loan Documents.

“Administrative Agent’s Office” means the Administrative Agent’s address and, as appropriate, account set forth below its signature to this Agreement, or such other address or account as the Administrative Agent hereafter may designate by written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders.

“Administrative Agent-Related Persons” means the Administrative Agent (including any successor agent), together with its Affiliates and the officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys-in-fact of such Persons and Affiliates.

“Administrative Questionnaire” means, with respect to each Lender, an administrative questionnaire in the form prepared by the Administrative Agent and submitted to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Borrower) duly completed by such Lender.

“Affiliate” means, as to any Person, any other Person that, directly or indirectly, is in control of, is controlled by, or is under direct or indirect common control with, such Person.

“Agents” means the collective reference to the Administrative Agent, Co-Syndication Agents, Co-Documentation Agents and Arrangers.

“Aggregate Exposure” means, with respect to any Lender at any time, an amount equal to the sum of such Lender’s (a) prior to the Effective Date, Commitment then in effect and (b) on and after the Effective Date, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Lenders’ Loans at such time.

“Aggregate Exposure Percentage” means, with respect to any Lender at any time, the ratio (expressed as a percentage) of such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure at such time to the Aggregate Exposure of all Lenders at such time.

“Agreement” means this Bridge Loan Agreement, as amended, restated, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified in writing from time to time.

“Applicable Amount” means the rate per annum, in basis points, set forth under the relevant column heading below based upon the applicable Debt Ratings:


Pricing Level	Debt Ratings S&P/Xxxxx’x	Base Rate	Eurodollar Rate
1	³A-/A3	100	200
2	BBB+/Baa1	125	225
3	BBB/Baa2	150	250
4	BBB-/Baa3	175	275
5	BB+/ Ba1	200	300
6	Any less favorable rating	250	350

Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the repayment in full of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity or expense reimbursement obligations not then due), the rates per annum set forth in the table above shall increase by an additional 50.0 basis points on the last day of each 90-day period after the Effective Date.

As used in this definition, “Debt Rating” means, as of any date of determination, the rating as determined by either S&P or Xxxxx’x (collectively, the “Debt Ratings”) of the Borrower’s senior unsecured non-credit-enhanced long-term Indebtedness for borrowed money (the “Subject Debt”); provided that, solely for purposes of determining the Applicable Amount, if a Debt Rating is issued by

each of S&P and Xxxxx’x, then the higher of such Debt Ratings shall apply (with Pricing Level 1 being the highest and Pricing Level 6 being the lowest), unless there is a split in Debt Ratings of more than one level, in which case the level that is one level higher than the lower Debt Rating shall apply. Initially, the Debt Ratings shall be determined based on the Borrower’s Debt Ratings on the Effective Date giving effect to the Transactions. Thereafter, the Debt Ratings shall be determined from the most recent public announcement of any changes in the Debt Ratings. Any change in the Applicable Amount shall become effective on and as of the date of any public announcement of any Debt Rating that indicates a different Applicable Amount. If the rating system of S&P or Xxxxx’x shall change, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall negotiate in good faith to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system and, pending the effectiveness of such amendment (which shall require the approval of the Required Lenders), the Debt Rating shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change. If and for so long as either S&P or Xxxxx’x (but not both) has ceased to rate the Subject Debt, then (x) if such rating agency has ceased to issue debt ratings generally, or if the Borrower has used commercially reasonable efforts to maintain ratings from both S&P and Xxxxx’x, the Debt Rating shall be deemed to be the Remaining Debt Rating and (y) otherwise, the Debt Rating shall be deemed to be one Pricing Level below the Remaining Debt Rating. If and for so long as both S&P and Xxxxx’x have ceased to rate the Subject Debt, then (x) if such S&P and Xxxxx’x have ceased to issue debt ratings generally, the Debt Rating shall be the Debt Rating most recently in effect prior to such event and (y) otherwise, the Debt Rating will be the Debt Rating at Pricing Level 6. For the purpose of the foregoing, “Remaining Debt Rating” means, at any time that one of S&P or Xxxxx’x, but not both, is rating the Subject Debt, the rating assigned by such rating agency from time to time.

“Applicable Payment Date” means, (a) as to any Eurodollar Rate Loan, the last day of the relevant Interest Period, any date that such Loan is prepaid or Converted in whole or in part and the maturity date of such Loan; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Rate Loan exceeds three months, interest shall also be paid on the Business Day which falls every three months after the beginning of such Interest Period and (b) as to any other Obligations, the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and the maturity date of such Obligation, except as otherwise provided herein.

“Applicable Time” means New York time.

“Arrangers” means the collective reference to the Lead Arrangers, the Co-Lead Arrangers and the Co-Arrangers.

“Asset Sale” means any Disposition of property or series of related Dispositions of property outside the ordinary course of business that yields, together with all other such Dispositions on or after the date hereof, Net Cash Proceeds to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in excess of $250,000,000 in the aggregate other than (i) asset securitization transactions, (ii) Dispositions of securities, money-market funds, loans and instruments that are classified as long or short term investments on the consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries for the purpose of funding all or a portion of the cash consideration for the Transactions, (iii) any Disposition arising in connection with the exercise of any A&E Put and (iv) Dispositions expressly referred to in Section 6.01(a) of the NBCU Disclosure Letter (as defined in the Merger Agreement). For the purpose hereof, “Disposition” shall have the meaning set forth in clause (a) of the definition thereof.

“Assignment and Acceptance” means an Assignment and Acceptance substantially in the form of Exhibit C.

“Attorney Costs” means the reasonable fees and disbursements of a law firm or other external counsel.

“Attributable Indebtedness” means, with respect to any Sale-Leaseback Transaction, the present value (discounted at the rate set forth or implicit in the terms of the lease included in such Sale-Leaseback Transaction) of the total obligations of the lessee for rental payments (other than amounts required to be paid on account of taxes, maintenance, repairs, insurance, assessments, utilities, operating and labor costs and other items that do not constitute payments for property rights) during the remaining term of the lease included in such Sale-Leaseback Transaction (including any period for which such lease has been extended). In the case of any lease that is terminable by the lessee upon payment of a penalty, the Attributable Indebtedness shall be the lesser of the Attributable Indebtedness determined assuming termination on the first date such lease may be terminated (in which case the Attributable Indebtedness shall also include the amount of the penalty, but no rent shall be considered as required to be paid under such lease subsequent to the first date on which it may be so terminated) or the Attributable Indebtedness determined assuming no such termination.

“Base Rate” means for any day a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate in effect for such day plus 1/2 of 1%, (b) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by JPMorgan Chase as its “prime rate” in effect at its principal office in New York City (the prime rate not being intended to be the lowest rate of interest charged by JPMorgan Chase in connection with extensions of credit to debtors) and (c) the Eurodollar Rate for a one month Interest Period commencing two Business Days after such day plus 1%.

For the purposes of this section, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Material Disposition or Material Acquisition and the amount of income or earnings related thereto, the pro forma calculations shall be determined in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Comparable adjustments shall be made in connection with any determination of Consolidated EBITDA.

2.02 Procedure for Loan Borrowing.

(a) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice requesting that the Lenders make the Loans on the Effective Date in a Minimum Amount by delivering a Request for Extension of Credit by Requisite Notice to the Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor.

(b) All unused Commitments after giving effect to the Borrowing on the Effective Date shall automatically expire.

(c) The failure of any Lender to make its Loan on the Effective Date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its Loan on the Effective Date, but the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan.

2.03 Repayment of Loans. The Loans (the amounts of which shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth in Section 2.08 and 2.09) shall be repayable in full on the Bridge Facility Maturity Date.

Each Lender’s Commitment shall be reduced pro rata by the amount of such reduction.

(b) The Commitments shall be automatically terminated upon the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the Master Agreement by the parties thereto and (ii) December 3, 2010 (or such later date as the “End Date” under the Master Agreement may be extended pursuant to Section 10.01(d) thereof, but in any event no later than June 3, 2011) unless, in the case of this clause (ii), each Lender shall, in its sole discretion, agree to an extension.

(b) If on or after the Initial Effective Date but prior to the Effective Date the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on such date toward the reduction of the Commitments; provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales and Recovery Events that may be excluded from the foregoing requirement pursuant to a Reinvestment Notice shall not exceed $100,000,000 in the aggregate and (ii) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the reduction of Commitments.

Mandatory prepayments of the Loans may not be reborrowed.

2.10 Documentation of Loans.

(a) Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, a Lender’s Loans may be evidenced by one or more Notes of the Borrower, instead of or in addition to its loan accounts or records. Each such Lender may attach schedules to its Notes and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain, at the Administrative Agent’s Office, a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments and Extensions of Credit of each Lender from time to time as more fully described in subsection (c) (the “Register”). The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register, acting, solely for this administrative purpose only, as agent for the Borrower (it

being acknowledged and agreed that the Administrative Agent and each Administrative Agent-Related Person, in such capacity, shall constitute Indemnitees under Section 10.13).

(c) The Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the Commitments and Extensions of Credit from time to time of each Lender, the amount of any principal or interest due and payable by the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, and the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower, whether such sum constitutes principal or interest (and the type of Loan to which it applies), fees, expenses or other amounts due under the Loan Documents and each Lender’s share thereof, if applicable. Any recordation shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Commitments or Outstanding Obligations or outstanding Loans.

(d) Each Lender shall record on its internal loan accounts or records (and may record on the Note(s) held by such Lender) the amount of each Extension of Credit made by it and each payment in respect thereof; provided that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Commitments or Outstanding Obligations or outstanding Loans; and provided, further, that in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern, absent manifest error.

(e) The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Extensions of Credit listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Extensions of Credit shall be effective, in each case, unless and until an Assignment and Acceptance effecting the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been accepted by the Administrative Agent and recorded in the Register. Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed with respect to the applicable Commitment or Outstanding Obligations or outstanding Loans shall be owed to the Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Outstanding Obligations or outstanding Loans.

2.11 Continuation and Conversion Option.

(a) The Borrower may irrevocably request a Conversion or Continuation of Loans on any Business Day in a Minimum Amount therefor by delivering a Request for Extension of Credit therefor by Requisite Notice to the Administrative Agent not later than the Requisite Time therefor. All Conversions and Continuations shall constitute Base Rate Loans unless properly and timely otherwise designated as set forth in the prior sentence.

(b) Unless the Borrower pays all amounts due under Section 3.05, if any, a Eurodollar Rate Loan may be Continued or Converted only on the last day of the Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan. During the existence of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may (and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall) prohibit Loans from being requested as, Converted into, or Continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans, and the Required Lenders may demand that any or all of then outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans be Converted immediately into Base Rate Loans.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Eurodollar Rate Loan upon determination of the same. The Administrative Agent shall from time to time notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any change in

JPMorgan Chase’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

2.12 Interest.

(a) Subject to subsection (b) below, and unless otherwise specified herein, the Borrower hereby promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made to it (before and after default, before and after maturity, before and after judgment and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws) from the date borrowed until paid in full (whether by acceleration or otherwise) on each Applicable Payment Date at a rate per annum equal to:

(i) in the case of Base Rate Loans, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Amount for such type of Loan;

(ii) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Amount for such type of Loan;

(b) If any amount payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), the Borrower hereby promises to pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by Law) on such amount at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be payable upon demand.

(c) On any Business Day, the Borrower may call the Administrative Agent and request information as to the then current Eurodollar Base Rate or Base Rate, and the Administrative Agent shall provide such information.

2.13 Fees.

(a) Ticking Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender pro rata according to its Aggregate Exposure Percentage a ticking fee equal to the average daily amount of such Lender’s Commitments multiplied by the Ticking Fee Rate then in effect. The ticking fee shall accrue at all times from the Initial Effective Date until the earlier to occur of (i) the termination or expiration of the Commitments and (ii) the Effective Date, and shall be payable on such earlier date.

(b) Duration Fee. If the Loans have not been repaid in full in cash on or prior to:

(i) the 90th day after the Effective Date, a fully earned and non-refundable duration fee equal to 0.75% of the aggregate principal amount of Loans then outstanding shall be due and payable in full on such date for the ratable benefit of each Lender;

(ii) the 180th day after the Effective Date, a fully earned and non-refundable duration fee equal to 1.25% of the aggregate principal amount of Loans then outstanding shall be due and payable in full on such date for the ratable benefit of each Lender; and

(iii) the 270th day after the Effective Date, a fully earned and non-refundable duration fee equal to 1.75% of the aggregate principal amount of Loans then outstanding shall be due and payable in full on such date for the ratable benefit of each Lender.

(c) Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the other parties hereto (and their respective Affiliates) fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing by the Borrower and such parties (or their Affiliates), except that any “ticking fee” payable pursuant to any such agreement with respect to the Commitments shall, from the Initial Effective Date, be replaced with the fee referred to in Section 2.13(a).

2.14 Computation of Interest and Fees. Computation of interest on Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by JPMorgan Chase’s “prime rate” shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed. Computation of all other types of interest and all fees shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall bear interest for one day.

2.15 Making Payments.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, all payments by the Borrower or any Lender hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than the Requisite Time for such type of payment. All payments received after such Requisite Time shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of the calculation of interest and fees, but not for purposes of determining whether a Default has occurred. All payments of principal and interest shall be made in immediately available funds in Dollars. All payments by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff.

(b) Upon satisfaction of any applicable terms and conditions set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall promptly make any amounts received in accordance with Section 2.15(a) available in like funds received as follows: (i) if payable to the Borrower, by crediting a deposit account designated from time to time by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent by Requisite Notice, and (ii) if payable to any Lender, by wire transfer to such Lender at its Lending Office. If such conditions are not so satisfied, the Administrative Agent shall return any funds it is holding to the Lenders making such funds available, without interest.

(c) Subject to the definition of “Interest Period,” if any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall instead be considered due on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest and fees.

(d) Unless the Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent, prior to the Requisite Time any payment to be made by it is due, that it does not intend to remit such payment, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, assume that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely remitted such payment and may, in its sole and absolute discretion and in reliance thereon, make such payment available to the Person entitled thereto. If such payment was not in fact remitted to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then:

(i) if the Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the amount of such assumed payment made available to such Lender, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate; and

(ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent promptly shall notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, (A) from such Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate and (B) from the Borrower, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

(e) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender is required at any time to return to the Borrower, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or any official under any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws, any portion of a payment made by the Borrower, each Lender shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent, return its share of the amount to be returned, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate.

2.16 Funding Sources. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

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

(a) Fees set forth in Section 2.13 shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender;

(b) The Aggregate Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 10.01), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender and in any event, no such amendment, modification or waiver shall increase the Commitments or the principal amount of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender, extend the maturity date applicable thereto or decrease the rate of interest (including any duration fees) payable in respect thereof without the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

stamp or other taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by the United States or any political subdivision thereof or therein and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, (w) in the case of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, taxes imposed on or measured by its net income, and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on it, by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is organized or maintains a Lending Office, (x) with respect to each Lender, taxes imposed by reason of any present or former connection between such Lender and the jurisdiction imposing such taxes, other than solely as a result of this Agreement or any Note or any transaction contemplated hereby, (y) in the case of a Lender organized under the Laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States (other than an assignee pursuant to a request by the Borrower under Section 3.06(b)), any withholding tax that is imposed on amounts payable to such Lender at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new lending office) or is attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with Section 10.21, except to the extent that such Lender (or its assignor, if any) was entitled, at the time of designation of a new lending office (or assignment), to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such withholding tax pursuant to this Section and (z) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for a failure by any Lender, Administrative Agent, or any other legal or beneficial holder or any foreign financial institution through which payments on the Loans under this Agreement are made to comply with any applicable certification, documentation, information or other reporting requirement concerning the nationality, residence, identity, direct or indirect ownership of or investment in, or connection with the United States of America of the applicable Lender, Administrative Agent, or any other legal or beneficial holder or any foreign financial institution through which payments on the Loans under this Agreement are made if such compliance is required by the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act of 2009 (H.R. 3933, S. 1934) (“FATCA”), if and to the extent enacted, or under any other United States federal legislation, if and to the extent enacted, that is substantially similar to FATCA (including, for example, Title V, Subtitle A, Chapter 4 of the Tax Extenders Act of 2009 (H.R. 4213)) or any federal regulation promulgated or Revenue Ruling, Revenue Procedure, or Notice (to the extent such Notice provides formal, definitive guidance) issued by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service thereunder as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or similar charges, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Non-Excluded Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by any Laws to deduct any Non-Excluded Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Administrative Agent and such Lender receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings, (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Laws and (iv) within 30 days after the date of such payment, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent (who shall forward the same to such Lender) the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made by it under any Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, performance, enforcement or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) If the Borrower shall be required to deduct or pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any Loan Document to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower shall also pay to the Administrative Agent or such Lender such additional amount that the Administrative Agent or such Lender specifies as necessary to preserve the

after-tax yield (after factoring in all taxes, including taxes imposed on or measured by net income) that the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have received if such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes had not been imposed.

(d) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent and such Lender, amounts payable under Section 3.01(c) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.01, all obligations of the Borrower to any Lender under such Section 3.01 shall be subject to, and conditioned upon such Lender’s compliance with its obligations, if any, under, Section 10.21.

(f) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender has received a refund from a relevant taxing or governmental authority in respect of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other 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 3.01, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay any or all of such refund to such Governmental Authority (a “Refund Repayment Requirement”), the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent or such Lender the full amount of such Refund Repayment Requirement (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority). If the Borrower becomes aware that the Administrative Agent or any Lender is entitled to receive a refund from a relevant taxing or governmental authority in respect of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other 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 3.01 and requests that the Administrative Agent or such Lender make a claim to such taxing authority or governmental authority for such refund, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall make such claim for such refund, provided, however (i) the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent or Lender for any costs incurred by such Administrative Agent or Lender in connection with making such claim for such refund and (ii) if any refund is received pursuant to such request, such refund will be subject to the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence. This subsection 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.

3.02 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Laws have made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Rate Loans, or materially restricts the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the applicable offshore interbank market, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, the obligation of such Lender to make Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the

Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or Convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Lender made to the Borrower, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

3.03 Inability to Determine Eurodollar Rates. If, in connection with any Request for Extension of Credit involving any Eurodollar Rate Loan, (a) the Administrative Agent determines that (i) deposits in Dollars are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore dollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of the requested Eurodollar Rate Loan or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the underlying interest rate for such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (b) the Required Lenders determine that such underlying interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders (or the Lender) of funding such Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and all Lenders. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders (or the Lender) to make or maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

3.04 Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy.

(a) If any Lender determines that the adoption of any Law or any change in any Law or in the interpretation thereof effective after the date hereof:

(i) subjects such Lender to any duty or other charge (excluding taxes, Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes addressed in Section 3.01) with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans or its obligation to make Eurodollar Rate Loans;

(ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit, or similar requirement (other than the reserve requirement utilized in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities or commitments of, such Lender (including its Commitment); or

(iii) imposes on such Lender or on the offshore interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities or commitments;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, Converting into, Continuing, or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loans or to reduce any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans, then from time to time upon demand of the Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts attributable to the Borrower as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

(b) If any Lender determines that the adoption of any Law or any change in any Law or in the interpretation thereof effective after the date hereof has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into

consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts attributable to the Borrower as will compensate such Lender for such reduction.

3.05 Breakfunding Costs. Subject to Section 3.06(a), upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any actual loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a) Any Continuation, Conversion, payment or prepayment by the Borrower of any Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration or otherwise);

(b) Any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Eurodollar Rate Loan) to prepay, borrow, Continue or Convert any Eurodollar Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower;

excluding any loss of anticipated profits but including any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

3.06 Matters Applicable to all Requests for Compensation.

(a) A certificate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 3 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder shall be conclusive in the absence of clearly demonstrable error; provided that such certificate (i) sets forth with reasonable specificity the calculation of the amount to be paid, (ii) states that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, is treating substantially all similarly situated borrowers in a manner that is consistent with the treatment afforded the Borrower hereunder, (iii) is delivered within 90 days of the later of the date of the event giving rise to such compensation and the date the Administrative Agent or such Lender knew or, with the exercise of reasonable care, should have known of the requirements for such compensation and (iv) confirms (in the case of a claim for compensation under Section 3.01 or Section 3.04) that either a change in the Administrative Agent’s Office or Lending Office, as the case may be, of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, would not have eliminated the request for compensation or that such change would have been otherwise disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be. In determining the amount of such compensation, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(b) Upon any Lender becoming prohibited from making, maintaining or funding Eurodollar Rate Loans pursuant to Section 3.02, or upon any Lender making a claim for compensation under Section 3.01 or Section 3.04, the Borrower may remove and replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.22.

3.07 Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall survive termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations.

5.09 Margin Regulations; Investment Company Act. The Borrower is not engaged and will not engage, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as now and from time to time hereafter in effect. No part of the proceeds of any Extensions of Credit hereunder will be used by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries for “purchasing” or “carrying” “margin stock” as so defined in a manner which violates, or which would be inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulations T, U, or X of such Board of Governors.

5.13 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans to finance a portion of the NBCU Dividend, to pay fees and expenses in connection with the Transactions and for other general corporate purposes and working capital of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

5.15 Solvency. As of the Effective Date and after giving effect to the Transactions and the incurrence of the Indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection herewith and therewith (assuming, in each case, that such Indebtedness and obligations come due at their stated maturity), the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, will be Solvent.

Regardless of how a Lender may treat payments for the purpose of its own accounting, for the purpose of computing the Obligations hereunder, payments received during the existence of an Event of Default shall be applied first, to costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent and each Lender (to the extent that each Lender has a right to reimbursement thereof pursuant to the Loan Documents), second, to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations to and including the date of such application, third, to the payment of, or as cash collateral for, the unpaid principal of the Obligations, and fourth, to the payment of all other amounts (including fees) then owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Loan Documents, in each case paid pro rata to each Lender in the same proportions that the aggregate Obligations owed to each Lender under the Loan Documents bear to the aggregate Obligations owed under the Loan Documents to all Lenders, without priority or preference among the Lenders.

SECTION 9

THE AGENTS

9.01 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

9.02 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or

willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower.

9.04 Reliance by the Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Sections 4.01 and 4.02, absent Requisite Notice by such Lender to the Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lender shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by the Administrative Agent to each Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender.

9.05 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

9.06 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any affiliate of the Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or

any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any 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 analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any affiliate of the Borrower that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

9.07 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentage in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentage immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

9.08 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower and its affiliates as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

9.09 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a), Section 8.01(b) or Section 8.01(i) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “the Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as the Administrative Agent shall be

terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of the former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent by the date that is 30 days following the retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

9.10 Arrangers, Co-Documentation Agents and Co-Syndication Agents. None of the Arrangers, the Co-Documentation Agents or the Co-Syndication Agents shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty hereunder in its capacity as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Arrangers, the Co-Documentation Agents or the Co-Syndication Agents in its capacity as such shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Arrangers, Co-Documentation Agents or Co-Syndication Agents in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

9.11 Withholding. 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 Code or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.01 and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Borrower to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The agreements in this Section 9.11 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, of the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of this Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

SECTION 10

MISCELLANEOUS

10.01 Amendments; Consents. No amendment, modification, supplement, extension, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no approval or consent thereunder, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent (or signed by the Administrative Agent with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders), and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, without the approval in writing of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, no amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver, approval, or consent may be effective to:

(a) Reduce the amount of principal of any Loans owed to such Lender;

(b) Reduce the rate of interest payable on any Loans owed to such Lender or the amount or rate of any fee or other amount payable to such Lender under the Loan Documents, except that the Required Lenders may waive or defer the imposition of the Default Rate;

(c) Waive an Event of Default consisting of the failure of the Borrower to pay when due principal, interest, any ticking fee, duration fee or any other amount payable to such Lender under the Loan Documents;

(d) Postpone any date scheduled for the payment of principal of, or interest on, any Loan or for the payment of any fee or for the payment of any other amount, in each case payable to such Lender under the Loan Documents, or extend the term of, or increase the amount of, any of such Lender’s Commitments (it being understood that a waiver of any Event of Default not referred to in subsection (c) above shall require only the consent of the Required Lenders) or modify such Lender’s share of any of the Commitments (except as contemplated hereby);

(e) Amend or waive the definition of “Required Lenders” or the provisions of this Section 10.01 or Section 10.06 (and, for the avoidance of doubt, all of the Lenders will be deemed to be directly and adversely affected by any amendment or waiver contemplated by this subsection (e)); or

(f) Amend or waive any provision of this Agreement that expressly requires the consent or approval of such Lender;

provided, however, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Required Lenders or each affected Lender, as the case may be, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent and (ii) any fee letters may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed by the parties thereto.

In the event that any Lender does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby, so long as the consent of the Required Lenders has been obtained, the Borrower shall be permitted to remove and replace such Lender in accordance with Section 10.22.

Any amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent pursuant to this Section shall apply equally to, and shall be binding upon, all Lenders and the Administrative Agent.

10.02 Requisite Notice; Effectiveness of Signatures and Electronic Mail.

(a) Requisite Notice. Notices given in connection with any Loan Document shall be delivered to the intended recipient at the number and/or address set forth in the case of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on Schedule 10.02, and in the case of the Lenders, on the Administrative Questionnaire (or as otherwise specified from time to time by such recipient in writing to the Administrative Agent) and shall be given by (i) irrevocable written notice or (ii) except as otherwise provided, irrevocable telephonic (not voicemail) notice. Such notices may be delivered, must be confirmed and shall be effective as follows:


Mode of Delivery

Mail		Effective on earlier of actual receipt and fourth Business Day after deposit in U.S. Mail, first class postage pre-paid

Courier or hand delivery		When signed for by recipient

Telephone (not voicemail)		When conversation completed (must be confirmed in writing)

Facsimile		When confirmed by telephone (not voicemail)

Electronic Mail		When delivered (usage subject to subsection (c) below)

provided, however, that notices delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2 shall not be effective until actually received by the Administrative Agent; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may require that any notice be confirmed or followed by a manually-signed hard copy thereof. Notices shall be in any form prescribed herein and, if sent by the Borrower, shall be made by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Notices delivered and, if required, confirmed in accordance with this subsection shall be deemed to have been delivered by Requisite Notice.

(b) Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed hard copies and shall be binding on the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed hard copy thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

(c) Limited Usage of Electronic Mail. Electronic mail and internet and intranet websites may be used to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information, and to distribute agreements and other documents to be signed by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower. No other legally-binding and/or time-sensitive communication or Request for Extension of Credit may be sent by electronic mail without the consent of, or confirmation to, the intended recipient in each instance.

(d) Reliance by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other notice specified herein or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify Administrative Agent-Related Persons and the Lenders from any loss, cost, expense or liability as a result of relying on any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower absent the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person seeking indemnification.

10.03 Attorney Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation and execution of the Loan Documents, and to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation and execution of any amendment, waiver, consent, supplement or modification to, any Loan Documents, and any other documents prepared in connection

herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the Attorney Costs of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, of one regulatory counsel and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction, in each case for the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel (and if reasonably necessary, of one regulatory counsel and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) for the affected parties taken as a whole and (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and each Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with any restructuring, reorganization (including a bankruptcy reorganization) or enforcement or attempted enforcement of, or preservation of any rights under, any Loan Documents, and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of any such documents in the nature of a “workout” or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding, including the Attorney Costs of one law firm to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, of one regulatory counsel and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction, in each case for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel (and if reasonably necessary, of one regulatory counsel and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) for the affected parties taken as a whole; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.03, any costs or expenses that are taxes shall be governed exclusively by Section 3.01. The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of all Obligations.

10.04 Binding Effect; Assignment.

(a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that, the Borrower may not, except as permitted by Section 7.03, assign its rights hereunder or thereunder or any interest herein or therein without the prior written consent of all Lenders and any such attempted assignment shall be void. Any Lender may at any time pledge a Note or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank or, if such Lender is a fund, to any trustee or to any other representative of holders of obligations owed or securities issued by such fund as security for such obligations or securities, but no such pledge shall release such Lender from its obligations hereunder or grant to such Federal Reserve Bank or trust or other representative the rights of a Lender hereunder absent foreclosure of such pledge, and any transfer to any Person upon the enforcement of such pledge shall be subject to this Section 10.04.

(b) From time to time following the date of this Agreement, each Lender may assign to one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities, all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that:

(i) such assignment, if not to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, shall require the consent of (A) prior to the initial Extensions of Credit on the Effective Date, the Borrower and solely for administrative purposes, the Administrative Agent (such consent of the Administrative Agent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and (B) thereafter, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and provided further, that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to any Person if an Event of Default under any of subsections (a), (b) or (i) of Section 8.01 of this Agreement has occurred and is continuing;

(ii) a copy of a duly signed and completed Assignment and Acceptance shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent;

(iii) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining Commitment or Loan of the assigning Lender, such assignment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than the Minimum Amount therefor; and

(iv) the effective date of any such assignment shall be as specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, but not earlier than the date which is five Business Days after the date Administrative Agent has received the Assignment and Acceptance.

(c) After receipt of a completed Assignment and Acceptance, and receipt of an assignment fee of $3,500 from such assignee and/or such assigning Lender (but not including in the case of assignments to Affiliates and Approved Funds of assigning Lenders), the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register on the effective date determined pursuant thereto.

The Loans (including the Notes evidencing such Loans) are registered obligations and the right, title, and interest of the Lenders and their assignees in and to such Loans shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register. A Note shall only evidence the Lender’s or an assignee’s right title and interest in and to the related Loan, and in no event is any such Note to be considered a bearer instrument or obligation within the meaning of Section 163(f) of the Code. This Section 10.04 shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (or any successor provisions of the Code or such regulations). Solely for purposes of this Section 10.04 and Section 2.10(c) and for tax purposes only, the Administrative Agent shall act as the Borrower’s agent for purposes of maintaining such notations of transfer in the Register.

(d) Each Lender may from time to time, without the consent of any other Person, grant participations to one or more other Persons (including another Lender) in all or any portion of its Loans, Commitments, Extensions of Credit or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participating bank or other financial institution shall not be a Lender hereunder for any purpose except, if the participation agreement so provides, for the purposes of the yield protection and increased cost provisions of Section 3 (but only to the extent that the cost of such benefits to the Borrower does not exceed the cost which the Borrower would have incurred in respect of such Lender absent the participation) and for purposes of Section 10.06, (iv) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (v) the consent of the holder of such participation interest shall not be required for amendments or waivers of provisions of the Loan Documents; provided, however, that the assigning Lender may, in any agreement with a participant, give such participant the right to consent (as between the assigning Lender and such participant) to those matters with respect to which the affirmative consent of the assigning Lender would be required pursuant to clauses (a) through (f) of the second sentence of Section 10.01. Any Lender that sells a participation to any Person that is a “foreign corporation, partnership or trust” within the meaning of the Code shall include in its participation agreement with such Person a covenant by such Person that such Person will comply with the provisions of Section 10.21 as if such Person were a Lender and provide that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be third party beneficiaries of such covenant. Each Lender that sells or grants a participation shall (a) withhold or deduct from each payment to the holder of such participation the amount of any tax required under applicable Laws to be withheld or deducted from such payment and not withheld or deducted therefrom by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (b) pay the tax so withheld or deducted by it to the appropriate taxing authority in accordance with applicable

Law and (c) indemnify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent for any losses, cost and expenses that they may incur as a result of any failure to so withhold or deduct and pay such tax.

10.05 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or any assignee of any Lender or any Affiliate thereof (each, a “Proceeding Party”) provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Proceeding Party is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being waived by the Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by Law, to proceed directly, by right of set-off, banker’s lien or otherwise, against any assets of the Borrower which may be in the hands of such Proceeding Party (including all general or special, time or demand, provisional or other deposits and other indebtedness owing by such Proceeding Party to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower) and apply such assets against the Obligations then due and payable, irrespective of whether such Proceeding Party shall have made any demand therefor. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

10.06 Sharing of Payments. Each Lender severally agrees that if it, through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim against the Borrower or otherwise, receives payment of the Obligations held by it that is ratably more than any other Lender receives in payment of the Obligations held by such other Lender, then, subject to applicable Laws, (a) such Lender exercising the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or otherwise receiving such payment shall purchase, and shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased, from the other Lender a participation in the Obligations held by the other Lender and shall pay to the other Lender a purchase price in an amount so that the share of the Obligations held by each Lender after the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment shall be in the same proportion that existed prior to the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment; and (b) such other adjustments and purchases of participations shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that all Lenders share any payment obtained in respect of the Obligations ratably in accordance with each Lender’s share of the Obligations immediately prior to, and without taking into account, the payment; provided that, (i) if all or any portion of a disproportionate payment obtained as a result of the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or otherwise is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender by the Borrower or any Person claiming through or succeeding to the rights of the Borrower, the purchase of a participation shall be rescinded and the purchase price thereof shall be restored to the extent of the recovery, but without interest and (ii) this Section 10.06 shall not apply to any payments made in accordance with the express provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents. Each Lender that purchases a participation in the Obligations pursuant to this Section shall from and after the purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in an Obligation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim with respect to the participation as fully as if Lender were the original owner of the Obligation purchased.

10.07 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

(a) No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any Lender or the Administrative Agent in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

(b) The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein or therein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law. Any decision by the Administrative Agent or any Lender not to require payment of any interest (including interest at the Default Rate), fee, cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document or to calculate any amount payable by a particular method on any occasion shall in no way limit or be deemed a waiver of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s right to require full payment thereof, or to calculate an amount payable by another method that is not inconsistent with this Agreement, on any other or subsequent occasion.

(c) Except with respect to Section 9.09, the terms and conditions of Section 9 are for the sole benefit of the Agents and the Lenders.

10.08 Usury. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan 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 excessive interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds the unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Administrative Agent or any 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.

10.09 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

10.10 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents and any letter agreements referred to herein, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control and govern; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. THE LOAN DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES THERETO AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS BY SUCH PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN SUCH PARTIES.

10.11 Nature of the Lenders’ Obligations. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document and no action taken by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or any of them pursuant hereto or thereto may, or may be deemed to, make the Lenders a partnership, an association, a joint venture or other entity, either among themselves or with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower. Each Lender’s obligation to make any Extension of Credit pursuant hereto is several and not joint or joint and several. A default by any Lender will not increase the Commitments attributable to any other Lender.

10.12 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document shall survive the execution and delivery thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, notwithstanding any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf.

10.13 Indemnity by the Borrower. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Borrower agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each Administrative Agent-Related Person, the other Agents and each Lender and their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, agents, attorneys and employees (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against: (i) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action that are asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (other than the Administrative Agent or any Lender) relating directly or indirectly to a claim, demand, action or cause of action that such Person asserts or may assert against the Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any of its officers or directors; (ii) any and all claims, demands, actions or causes of action arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents, the Commitments, the use or contemplated use of the proceeds of any Extension of Credit, or the relationship of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement; (iii) any administrative or investigative proceeding by any Governmental Authority arising out of or related to a claim, demand, action or cause of action described in clauses (i) or (ii) above; and (iv) any and all liabilities (including liabilities under indemnities), losses, costs or expenses (excluding taxes, which are governed exclusively by Section 3.01 and including and limited to the Attorney Costs of one counsel for the Indemnitees taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, of one regulatory counsel and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction, in each case to the Indemnitees taken as a whole, and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel (and if reasonably necessary, of one regulatory counsel and one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) for the affected parties taken as a whole) that any Indemnitee suffers or incurs as a result of the assertion of any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, or as a result of the preparation of any defense in connection with any foregoing claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding, in all cases, including settlement costs incurred with the prior written consent of Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), whether or not arising out of the negligence of an Indemnitee, and whether or not an Indemnitee is a party to such claim, demand, action, cause of action or proceeding (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any Indemnified Liability to the extent (i) it is found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court or competent jurisdiction to arise from (x) the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of an Indemnitee or (y) a material breach by such Indemnitee of its express obligations under this Agreement or (ii) not resulting from an act or omission of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates in respect of a claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding by one Lender against another Lender in connection with secondary loan market trading activities. The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of all Obligations.

10.14 Nonliability of the Lenders.

The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) Any inspections of any property of the Borrower made by or through the Administrative Agent or the Lenders are for purposes of administration of the Loan Documents only, and the Borrower is not entitled to rely upon the same (whether or not such inspections are at the expense of the Borrower);

(b) By accepting or approving anything required to be observed, performed, fulfilled or given to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders pursuant to the Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be deemed to have warranted or represented the sufficiency,

legality, effectiveness or legal effect of the same, or of any term, provision or condition thereof, and such acceptance or approval thereof shall not constitute a warranty or representation to anyone with respect thereto by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders;

(c) The relationship between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders is, and shall at all times remain, solely that of borrower and lenders; neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender undertakes or assumes any responsibility or duty to the Borrower or its Affiliates to select, review, inspect, supervise, pass judgment upon or inform the Borrower or its Affiliates of any matter in connection with their property or the operations of the Borrower or its Affiliates; the Borrower and its Affiliates shall rely entirely upon their own judgment with respect to such matters; and any review, inspection, supervision, exercise of judgment or supply of information undertaken or assumed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with such matters is solely for the protection of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and neither the Borrower nor any other Person is entitled to rely thereon;

(d) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall under any circumstance be deemed to be in an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship with the Borrower and its Affiliates or have a fiduciary or other implied duty to the Borrower and its Affiliates;

(e) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and their Affiliates, may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower or its Affiliates; and

(f) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible or liable to any Person for any loss, damage, liability or claim of any kind relating to injury or death to Persons or damage to property caused by the actions, inaction or negligence of the Borrower and/or its Affiliates and the Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from any such loss, damage, liability or claim.

10.15 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made for the purpose of defining and setting forth certain obligations, rights and duties of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the Extensions of Credit, and is made for the sole benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ successors and permitted assigns. Except as provided in Section 10.04, no other Person shall have any rights of any nature hereunder or by reason hereof.

10.16 Severability. Any provision of the Loan Documents that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective and severable to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower agree to negotiate, in good faith, the terms of a replacement provision as similar to the severed provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable.

10.17 Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall use any confidential non-public information concerning the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates that is furnished to the Administrative Agent or such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with the Loan Documents (collectively, “Confidential Information”) solely for the purpose of administering and enforcing the Loan Documents, and it will hold the Confidential Information in confidence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and each Lender may disclose Confidential Information (a) to their affiliates or any of their or their affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, auditors, counsel, advisors, or representatives (collectively, the “Representatives”) who need

to know such information for the purposes set forth in this Section and who have been advised of and acknowledge their obligation to keep such information confidential in accordance with this Section, (b) to any bank or financial institution or other entity to which such Lender has assigned or desires to assign an interest or participation in the Loan Documents or the Obligations or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, provided that any such foregoing recipient of such Confidential Information agrees to keep such Confidential Information confidential as specified herein, (c) to any governmental agency or regulatory body having or claiming to have authority to regulate or oversee any aspect of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s business or that of their Representatives in connection with the exercise of such authority or claimed authority (in which case such Lender shall, except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority, use reasonable efforts to promptly notify the Borrower, in advance, to the extent lawfully permitted to do so), (d) to the extent necessary or appropriate to enforce any right or remedy or in connection with any claims asserted by or against the Administrative Agent or such Lender or any of their Representatives, (e) pursuant to any subpoena or any similar legal process (in which case such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to promptly notify the Borrower, in advance, to the extent permitted by Law), (f) to Xxxxx’x and S&P when required by them (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to use reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information relating to the Borrower received by it from such Lender) and (g) with the consent of the Borrower. For purposes hereof, the term “Confidential Information” shall not include information that (x) is in the Administrative Agent’s or a Lender’s possession prior to its being provided by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, provided that such information is not known by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to be subject to another confidentiality agreement with, or other legal or contractual obligation of confidentiality to, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, (y) is or becomes publicly available (other than through a breach hereof by the Administrative Agent or such Lender) or (z) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or such Lender on a nonconfidential basis, provided that the source of such information was not known by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to be bound by a confidentiality agreement or other legal or contractual obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any party subject to confidentiality obligations hereunder or under any other related document (and any employee, representative or other agent of such party) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of this Agreement and all materials of any kind, including opinions or other tax analyses, that have been provided to it by any other party relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.

10.18 Headings. Section headings in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are included for convenience of reference only and are not part of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents for any other purpose.

10.19 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence of the Loan Documents.

10.20 Domestic Lenders. Each Lender that is a United States person shall provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Effective Date or, in the case of an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.04 or otherwise, on the date of such assignment or transfer, two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor form), in each case certifying that such Lender is a United States person and to such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax with respect to payments to be made under any Loan Document.

10.21 Foreign Lenders. Each Lender organized under the Laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of this Agreement in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof and on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with (i) if such Lender is a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, IRS Form W-8ECI or W-8BEN, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, certifying that such Lender is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to the Loan Documents is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, or (ii) if such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and intends to claim an exemption from United States withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” IRS Form W-8, or any successor form prescribed by the IRS, and a certificate representing that such Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, is not a ten-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Borrower, and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code). Thereafter and from time to time, each such Person shall (a) to the extent it remains lawfully able to do so, upon the request of the Borrower, promptly submit to the Administrative Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms set forth in the prior sentence (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States Laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any available exemption from or reduction of, United States withholding taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Person by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and (b) promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances that the Lender is aware of which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction. If such Person fails to deliver the above forms or other documentation, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Person an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code, without reduction.

10.22 Removal and Replacement of Lenders.

(a) In the event that any Lender (i) requests compensation under Section 3.01 or 3.04, (ii) becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iii) does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any extension permitted by Section 2.04(b) with the consent of each Lender) directly and adversely affected thereby (in the case of this clause (iii), so long as the consent of the Required Lenders to such amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver has been obtained), the Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, remove such Lender by (A) solely in the case of clause (ii) with respect to any Lender that becomes a Defaulting Lender, (x) after the Effective Date, under either of clauses (e) or (f) of the definition thereof or (y) on or prior to the Effective Date, for any reason, non ratably terminating such Lender’s Commitment and prepaying such Lenders outstanding Loans and/or (B) causing such Lender to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.04(b) to one or more other Lenders or eligible assignees procured by the Borrower; provided that such assigning Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal, interest and fees owed to such Lender from the assignee Lender or the Borrower. The Borrower shall, in the case of a termination of such Lender’s Commitment and prepaying its Loans pursuant to clause (A) preceding, (x) pay in full all principal, interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Lender through the date of termination and prepayment (including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 3) and (y) release such Lender from its obligations under the Loan Documents from and after the

date of termination and prepayment. The Borrower shall, in the case of an assignment pursuant to clause (B) preceding, cause to be paid the assignment fee payable to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.04(c). Any such Lender whose Commitments are being assigned shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance covering such Lender’s Commitments. The Administrative Agent shall distribute an amended Schedule 1.01A, which shall be deemed incorporated into this Agreement, to reflect adjustments to the Lenders and their Commitments.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, prior to the Effective Date, removal of Lenders pursuant to clause (A) above shall be permitted with respect to any Lender that would be a Defaulting Lender if no effect were given to any grace periods contained in clause (a) of the definition of Defaulting Lender.

(b) If fees cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.17(a), such fees shall not be paid to the non-Defaulting Lenders.

10.23 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 3.01(a) or 3.04 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable best efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no legal or regulatory disadvantage and no more than an insubstantial economic disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01(a).

10.24 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers.

(f) Each Guarantor agrees that whenever, it shall make any payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of its liability hereunder, it will notify the Administrative Agent in writing that such payment is made under this Guarantee for such purpose.

3. Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall

be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder who has not paid its proportionate share of such payment.

The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall notify such Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by the Administrative Agent or such Lender of the proceeds thereof, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this Section 4 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Administrative Agent or such Lender may have.

5. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by any of the Guarantors hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any of the Guarantors by any Lender, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by any Lender for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by the Borrower on account of the Obligations (other than contingent expense reimbursement and indemnification obligations) are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations (other than contingent expense reimbursement and indemnification obligations) shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.

6. Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights. Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by such party and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part

thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and the Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for this Guarantee or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against any of the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the Borrower or any other Guarantor or guarantor, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such demand or to collect any payments from the Borrower or any such other Guarantor or guarantor or any release of the Borrower or such other Guarantor or guarantor shall not relieve any of the Guarantors in respect of which a demand or collection is not made or any of the Guarantors not so released of their several obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against any of the Guarantors.

Each Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or any of the Guarantors with respect to the Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that this Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or such Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for the Obligations, or of such Guarantor under this Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower or any such other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve such Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against such Guarantor.

8. Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

9. Payments. Each Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars at the Administrative Agent’s Office.

(a) Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually-signed hard copies and shall be binding on the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed hard copy thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

(b) Limited Usage of Electronic Mail. Electronic mail and internet and intranet websites may be used to distribute routine communications, such as financial statements and other information, and to distribute agreements and other documents to be signed by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower. No other legally-binding and/or time-sensitive communication may be sent by electronic mail without the consent of, or confirmation to, the intended recipient in each instance.

(c) Reliance by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of any Guarantor even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other notice specified herein or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. Each Guarantor shall indemnify Administrative Agent-Related Persons and the Lenders from any loss, cost, expense or liability as a result of relying on any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of such Guarantor absent the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person seeking indemnification.

13. Counterparts. This Guarantee may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

14. Severability. Any provision of this Guarantee that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective and severable to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions thereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. The Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Guarantors agree to negotiate, in good faith, the terms of a replacement provision as similar to the severed provision as may be possible and be legal, valid, and enforceable.

15. Integration. This Guarantee, together with the other Loan Documents and any letter agreements referred to herein, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties regarding the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Guarantee and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Guarantee shall control and govern; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Guarantee. This Guarantee was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. THIS GUARANTEE REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES HERETO AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS BY SUCH PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN SUCH PARTIES.

16. Amendments in Writing; No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No amendment, modification, supplement, extension, termination or waiver of any provision of this Guarantee, no approval or consent hereunder, and no consent to any departure by any Guarantor herefrom shall be effective unless in writing signed by each Guarantor and the Required Lenders and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent (or signed by the Administrative Agent with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders), and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any Lender or the Administrative Agent in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege under this Guarantee preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges

herein or therein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

17. Section Headings. Section headings in this Guarantee are included for convenience of reference only and are not part of this Guarantee for any other purpose.

18. Successors and Assigns. This Guarantee shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their successors and assigns.

19. Governing Law. THIS GUARANTEE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS GUARANTEE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(a) Each party to this Guarantee irrevocably and unconditionally:

(i) submits for itself and its property in any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Guarantee and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the City of New York, and appellate courts from any court therein;

(iii) consents that any such suit, action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient forum and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(v) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by Law or shall limit the right to xxx in any other jurisdiction;

20. Release of Guarantee. (a) All of the Guarantees shall be released when the Obligations (other than contingent expense reimbursement and indemnification obligations) have been paid in full and the Commitments have been terminated (subject to reinstatement in accordance with Section 8 above).

(b) If any Guarantor shall cease to be a subsidiary of the Borrower or all or substantially all of the assets of a Guarantor are sold to a Person other than the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case in a transaction not otherwise prohibited by the Credit Agreement (any such sale, a “Sale of Guarantor”), such Guarantor shall be automatically released from its Guarantee hereunder, and the Administrative Agent shall, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver such documents as the Borrower may reasonably request to evidence such release. Such release shall not require the consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall be fully protected in relying on a certificate of the Borrower as to whether the foregoing conditions are satisfied.

(c) If the Borrower shall deliver a notice in writing to the Administrative Agent electing to release a Guarantor from its obligations under this Guarantee and certifying that, after giving effect to such release, there shall be no Event of Default, then the Guarantor shall be automatically released from this Guarantee hereunder with effect from the date of such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall, at the at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver such documents as the Borrower may reasonably request to evidence such release. Such release shall not require the consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall be fully protected in relying on a certificate of the Borrower as to whether the foregoing conditions are satisfied.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the undersigned has caused this Guarantee to be duly executed and delivered by its duly authorized officer as of the day and year first above written.
