In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit; (H) the Borrower or other Subsidiary of the Parent on whose account the requested Letter of Credit is being issued; and (I) such other matters as such L/C Issuer may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as such L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the applicable L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require. Such Letter of Credit Application may be sent by facsimile, by United States mail, by overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by the applicable L/C Issuer, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to the applicable L/C Issuer.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if not, such L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the applicable L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to

91839933_4

the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article III shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit (for the avoidance of doubt, including any Letters of Credit with an expiry date later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date issued in accordance with Section 2.03(a)(ii)(B)), each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

(iii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the applicable L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit such L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date unless on or before the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, the Borrower has complied with the requirements set forth in Section 2.03(a)(ii)(B), in which case such expiry date shall not extend more than twelve months past the Letter of Credit Expiration Date unless all Lenders have otherwise consented thereto; provided, however, that such L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) such L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Loan Party that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing such L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.

(iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable L/C Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

91839933_4

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall examine the drawing documents in respect of such Letter of Credit within the period stipulated by the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit. Such L/C Issuer shall promptly after such examination notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof of such demand for payment and whether such L/C Issuer has made payment under such Letter of Credit. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in Sterling, the Borrower shall reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer in Sterling, unless (A) such L/C Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars, or (B) in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, the Borrower shall have notified such L/C Issuer promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that the Borrower will reimburse such L/C Issuer in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in Sterling, the applicable L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower of the Equivalent in Dollars of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the next Business Day succeeding payment by the applicable L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such L/C Issuer payment date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing; provided, however, that in the event such reimbursement by the Borrower is made on the next Business Day succeeding the Honor Date, interest shall accrue on the amount of such drawing for the account of such L/C Issuer from the Honor Date until the date of such reimbursement at a rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse such L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in the Equivalent in Dollars thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in Sterling) (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Advances to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount (expressed in the amount of the Equivalent in Dollars thereof in the case of any Unreimbursed Amount in Sterling), without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.01 for the principal amount of Base Rate Advances, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Total Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of an Advance Notice). Any notice given by the applicable L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer, in Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s Office for Dollar-denominated payments in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent,

91839933_4

whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Advance to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable L/C Issuer in Dollars.

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing of Base Rate Advances because the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount (expressed in the amount of the Equivalent in Dollars thereof in the case of any Unreimbursed Amount in Sterling) that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest in accordance with Section 2.08(b). In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

(iv) Until each Lender funds its Advance or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of such L/C Issuer.

(v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Advances or L/C Advances to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against such L/C Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Advances pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 (other than delivery by the Borrower of an Advance Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by such L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, such L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by such L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees

91839933_4

customarily charged by such L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance included in the relevant Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the applicable L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after the applicable L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof (based on the Equivalent in Dollars for any payment received in Sterling) in Dollars .

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned by such L/C Issuer (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower or any other Subsidiary of the Parent may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), such L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the

91839933_4

transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv) any waiver by such L/C Issuer of any requirement that exists for such L/C Issuer’s protection and not the protection of the Borrower or any waiver by such L/C Issuer which does not in fact materially prejudice the Borrower;

(v) any honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft;

(vi) any payment made by such L/C Issuer in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under, such Letter of Credit if presentation after such date is authorized by the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the applicable jurisdiction and the ISP;

(vii) any payment by such L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, so long as such L/C Issuer reasonably determined that such draft or certificate substantially complied with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or any payment made by such L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under the bankruptcy code of the United States or any other liquidation, conservatorship, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, moratorium, rearrangement, receivership, insolvency, reorganization, or similar debtor relief laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdictions from time to time in effect and affecting the rights of creditors generally; or

(viii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any other Subsidiary of the Parent.

The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the applicable L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the applicable L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the

91839933_4

L/C Issuers, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuers, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of any L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the applicable L/C Issuer, and such L/C Issuer may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by such L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuers may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuers shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. The L/C Issuers may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.

(g) Applicability of ISP; Limitation of Liability. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the L/C Issuers shall be responsible to the Borrower for, and the rights and remedies of any L/C Issuer against the Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of any L/C Issuer required under any law or order, that is required to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the law or any order of a jurisdiction where any L/C Issuer or the beneficiary is located, or the decisions or opinions of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such to apply thereto.

(h) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share Percentage, in Dollars, a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Advances times the Equivalent in Dollars of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided, however, any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise

91839933_4

payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the applicable L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.03 or Section 2.18 shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Pro Rata Share Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 8.16(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to such L/C Issuer for its own account. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.05. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. If there is any change in the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Advances during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Advances separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Advances was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at a rate equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Rate Advances plus 2% per annum.

(i) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuers. The Borrower shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account, in Dollars, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum specified in the Fee Letter or as otherwise agreed between the Borrower and the applicable L/C Issuer, computed on the Equivalent in Dollars of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the tenth Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December in respect of the most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on demand. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.05. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to the applicable L/C Issuer for its own account, in Dollars, the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

(j) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

(k) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary of the Parent, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries of the Parent inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

91839933_4

(l) Reporting of Letter of Credit Information and Letter of Credit Sublimit. At any time that any Person other than the Person acting as Administrative Agent is an L/C Issuer, then (i) on the last Business Day of each calendar month, (ii) on each date that a Letter of Credit is amended, terminated or otherwise expires, (iii) on each date that an L/C Credit Extension occurs with respect to any Letter of Credit, and (iv) upon the request of the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer (or, in the case of parts (ii), (iii) or (iv), the applicable L/C Issuer) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a report setting forth in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent information (including, without limitation, any reimbursement, Cash Collateral, or termination in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer) with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer that is outstanding hereunder. In addition, each L/C Issuer shall provide notice to the Administrative Agent of its Letter of Credit Sublimit, or any change thereto, promptly upon it becoming a L/C Issuer or making any change to its Letter of Credit Sublimit. No failure on the part of any L/C Issuer to provide such information pursuant to this Section 2.03(l) shall limit the obligation of the Borrower or any Lender hereunder with respect to its reimbursement and participation obligations, respectively, pursuant to this Section 2.03.

Section 2.04 Swing Line Loans.

(a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, to make Advances (each such Advance, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date to the Termination Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit; provided, however, that (x) after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Outstanding Amount of all Advances, all L/C Obligations and all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the Total Commitment, and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of the Advances of any Lender plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Commitment, (y) the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan and (z) the Swing Line Lender will not be required to make any Swing Line Loans if, after giving effect to such Swing Line Loans (i) the sum of the Swing Line Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of Advances (after giving effect to any repayment or prepayment thereof to occur immediately prior to or concurrently with such requested making of Swing Line Loans, including with any portion of the proceeds thereof), plus (ii) the sum of the Swing Line Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus (iii) the outstanding Swing Line Loans of the Swing Line Lender, exceed (iv) the Commitment of the Swing Line Lender. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.11, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each Swing Line Loan shall be in Dollars. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

(b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Borrower's irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which

91839933_4

may be given by (x) telephone or (y) a Swing Line Loan Notice; provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a Swing Line Loan Notice. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $1,000,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 4:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3.02 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 5:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower in Same Day Funds.

(i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Lender make a Base Rate Advance in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be an Advance Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.01 for the principal amount of Base Rate Advances, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Total Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Advance Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified in such Advance Notice available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the day specified in such Advance Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Advance to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such an Advance in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Advances submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for

00000000_4

the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Advances or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) in the case of each Lender’s obligation to purchase and fund risk participations only, the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Advances (but not to fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans) pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

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

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

91839933_4

of the all amounts owing hereunder and under any Loan Document and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until a Lender funds its Base Rate Advance or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender, and after such Lender funds its Base Rate Advance or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Swing Line Loan, such interest shall be for the account of such Lender.

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

Section 2.05 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in subsections (h) and (i) of Section 2.03:

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share Percentage, a commitment fee equal to the Applicable Percentage times the actual daily amount by which the Total Commitment exceeds the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Advances and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8.16 (the “Commitment Fee”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Outstanding Amount of Swing Line Loans shall not be, but the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations shall be, counted towards or considered usage of the Total Commitments for purposes of determining the Commitment Fee. The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article III is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December (each, a “Commitment Fee Payment Date”), commencing with the Commitment Fee Payment Date first occurring after the Effective Date, and on the Termination Date. The Commitment Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Percentage during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Percentage separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Percentage was in effect.

(b) Agent’s Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account such fees as may from time to time be agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, including without limitation in the Fee Letter.

Section 2.06 Termination or Reduction of the Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or permanently reduce ratably in part the unused portions of the respective Commitments of the Lenders, provided that each partial reduction of the Total Commitment shall be in the aggregate amount of $25,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

91839933_4

Section 2.07 Repayment of Advances.

(a) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders on the Termination Date the aggregate principal amount of all Advances then outstanding together with all accrued and unpaid interest, fees and costs associated therewith. Repayments made pursuant to this clause (a) shall be in the same currency in which such outstanding Advances were made.

(b) The Borrower shall repay each Swing Line Loan together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon on the earlier to occur of (i) the date ten (10) Business Days after such Swing Line Loan is made, and (ii) the Termination Date.

Section 2.08 Interest on Advances.

(a) Scheduled Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

(i) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y) the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances in effect from time to time, payable in arrears quarterly on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December during such periods and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full.

(ii) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of (x) the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period for such Advance plus (y) the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Rate Advances in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full.

(iii) Swing Line Loans. With respect to each Swing Line Loan, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y) the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances in effect from time to time minus (z) the Commitment Fee in effect from time to time, and payable in arrears on the date of repayment or refinancing, in whole or in part, of such Swing Line Loan.

(b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or (e), the Borrower shall pay interest on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a)(i), (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) above, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance pursuant to clause (a)(i), (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) above and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be

91839933_4

paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Advances pursuant to clause (a)(i) above.

Section 2.09 Interest Rate Determination.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.08(a)(i), (ii) or (iii).

(b) If, (i) with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Advance or conversions to or continuations thereof, the Administrative Agent reasonably and in good faith determines that deposits (whether in Dollars or Sterling) are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Advance, (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate (A) for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Advance (whether denominated in Dollars or Sterling) or (B) in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Advance (in each case with respect to clause (i) and (ii) above, “Impacted Loans”), or (iii) the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Required Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (1) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Rate Advances or Interest Periods), and (2) in the event of a determination described in clause (ii)(B) with respect to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurocurrency Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Advances in the affected currency or currencies (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Rate Advances or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed (x) to have converted such request for a Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Advances into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Advances in the amount specified therein (or in the Equivalent amount in Dollars if such request was for a Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Advances in Sterling) and (y) to have withdrawn any such request for a conversion to, or continuation of, a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, in which case each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance in Dollars, and each Base Rate Advance shall continue as a Base Rate Advance.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have made any determination described in clause (b) above, the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Borrower and the Required Lenders, establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (i) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (b) of this section, (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the

91839933_4

Impacted Loans, or (iii) any Lender determines that any Law has 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 Advances whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the Borrower written notice thereof.

(d) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders and such Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advance, Convert into Base Rate Advances.

(e) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended.

Section 2.10 Optional Conversion of Advances. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by (a) telephone or (b) an Advance Notice; provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Advance Notice. Each such Advance Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day, with respect to Advances in Dollars, or the fifth Business Day, with respect to Advances in Sterling, prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.09 and 2.13, Convert all Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(b) and no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Eurocurrency Rate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(b).

Section 2.11 Prepayments of Advances.

(a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, which must be in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day, with respect to Advances in Dollars, or the fifth Business Day, with respect to Advances in Sterling, prior to the date of such proposed prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, and not later than 12:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the day of such proposed prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Advances, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay the Outstanding Amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid, with such prepayment to be made in the currency in which such Advances were made; provided, however, that (x) except in

91839933_4

the case of prepayments of Swing Line Loans, as described in clause (z) below, each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or the Equivalent thereof in Sterling or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 or the Equivalent thereof in Sterling in excess thereof, (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c) and (z) in the case of a Swing Line Loan, the Borrower may prepay the Outstanding Amount of such Swing Line Loan, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid, at any time in minimum increments of $100,000.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) If at any time the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Dollars then outstanding plus (B) the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Sterling then outstanding plus (C) the aggregate amount of all L/C Obligations denominated in Dollars then outstanding plus (D) the Equivalent in Dollars of the aggregate amount of all L/C Obligations denominated in Sterling outstanding exceeds the Total Commitment on such date, the Borrower shall, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice given pursuant to (ii) below, prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Advances and/or Cash Collateralize 100% of the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed the Total Commitment on such date.

(ii) Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) (A) shall be made together with any interest accrued to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid and, in the case of any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period or at its maturity, any additional amounts which the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse to the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c), and (B) shall be made in the currency in which the Advances subject to such prepayment were made. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.11(b) to the Borrower and the Lenders.

(c) Hedge Agreements. All Hedge Agreements, if any, between the Borrower and any Lender or its affiliates are independent agreements governed by the written provisions of such Hedge Agreements, which will remain in full force and effect, unaffected by any repayment, prepayment, acceleration, reduction, increase or change in terms of this Agreement or the Notes, except as otherwise expressly provided in said written swap agreements, and any payoff statements from the Administrative Agent relating to this Agreement shall not apply to said Hedge Agreements, except as otherwise expressly provided in such payoff statement.

(d) Prepayments of Swing Line Loans. If at any time (i) the sum of the Swing Line Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of Advances, plus (ii) the sum of the Swing Line Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus (iii) the outstanding Swing Line Loans of the Swing Line Lender, exceed (iv) the Commitment of the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall, upon a request from the Swing Line Lender specifying

91839933_4

the amount of such excess, promptly repay the outstanding Swing Line Loans to the extent necessary to eliminate such excess.

Subject to Section 8.16, each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.11 (other than prepayments of Swing Line Loans) shall be applied to the Advances of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share Percentages.

Section 2.12 Increased Costs.

(a) If, due to any Change in Law, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding, converting to, continuing or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to any Lender or the applicable L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letters of Credit (excluding for purposes of this Section 2.12 any such increased costs resulting from (i) Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.15 shall govern) and (ii) changes in taxes measured by or imposed upon the net income or gross income or franchise taxes, or taxes measured by or imposed upon capital or net worth, or branch taxes, of such Lender, its Applicable Lending Office or such L/C Issuer), then the Borrower shall from time to time, within ten days of demand by such Lender or such L/C Issuer (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or such L/C Issuer additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer for such increased cost; provided that, before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office and such L/C Issuer agrees to use reasonable efforts to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates if the making of such a designation or assignment would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such additional cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or such L/C Issuer, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender or such L/C Issuer.

(b) If any Lender or any L/C Issuer reasonably determines that any Change in Law affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or such L/C Issuer or any corporation controlling such Lender or such L/C Issuer and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend hereunder, such L/C Issuer's commitment to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, and other commitments of similar types, and such Lender or such L/C Issuer reasonably determines that the rate of return on its or such controlling corporation’s capital as a consequence is reduced to a level below that which such Lender, such L/C Issuer or such controlling corporation would have achieved but for the occurrence of such conditions (taking into consideration such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s controlling company with respect to capital adequacy), then, within ten days of demand by such Lender or such L/C Issuer (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or such L/C Issuer, from time to time as specified by such Lender or such L/C Issuer, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender, such L/C Issuer or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender or such L/C Issuer reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s commitment to lend hereunder; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased

91839933_4

costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(c) If a Lender changes its Applicable Lending Office or an L/C Issuer assigns its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates (other than pursuant to this Section 2.12 or Section 2.13 or 2.15(g)) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause the Borrower to become obligated to pay any additional amounts under this Section 2.12, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount.

(d) A certificate of a Lender or an L/C Issuer setting forth the amount of any claim made under this Section 2.12 and identifying with reasonable specificity the basis for calculating such amount, shall be delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.13 Illegality; Circumstances Affecting Availability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent (who will promptly notify the Borrower and the other Lenders) that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation after the date hereof makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Advances for which interest is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate or to fund or maintain such Advances hereunder, or if the Administrative Agent determines that by reason of circumstances affecting foreign exchange and interbank markets generally, the Eurocurrency Rate cannot be determined, then (A) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, upon such notice, Convert into a Base Rate Advance (the interest rate on which Base Rate Advances shall, if necessary to avoid any illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate), and (B) the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances, Convert Base Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances or, if necessary to avoid any illegality, to make Base Rate Advances the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension or inability to determine the Eurocurrency Rate no longer exist or that such Lender has entered into one or more Assignment and Assumptions pursuant to Section 8.06 assigning its Commitment to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that, before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

91839933_4

Section 2.14 Payments Generally and Computations.

(a) General. All payments hereunder and under the Notes to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars, in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars, or in Sterling, in the case of Advances denominated in Sterling, to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Same Day Funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or the Commitment Fee ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12, 2.15 or 8.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.06(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

(b) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate (including in each case where the Base Rate is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate) or the Federal Funds Rate and all computations of interest in respect of Advances denominated in Sterling shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate (other than (i) any case where the Base Rate is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate, and (ii) in respect of interest on Advances in Sterling) and of the Commitment Fee, shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or Commitment Fee is payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or the Commitment Fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, or cause any payment of interest on or principal of Advances to be made after the Maturity Date, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders or any L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each

91839933_4

Lender or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender or such L/C Issuer. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender or the applicable L/C Issuer, as the case may be, shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender or such L/C Issuer together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender or such L/C Issuer until the date such Lender or such L/C Issuer repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate.

Section 2.15 Taxes.

(a) Except as otherwise required by law, any and all payments by the Borrower hereunder, under the Notes or under any other Loan Document issued hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.14, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed or asserted by any taxation authority and all liabilities with respect thereto (all such taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder, under the Notes or under any other Loan Document, along with any penalties, additions to tax, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (whether or not correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant taxing authority), collectively being hereafter referred to as “Taxes”), excluding, in the case of payments made to any Lender, any L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent (A) Taxes imposed on or measured by its net income (however denominated), and franchise Taxes, branch Taxes, Taxes on doing business and Taxes measured by or imposed upon its capital or net worth, in each case imposed as a result of such Lender (and or such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office), such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent being organized under the laws of, or being a legal resident of, or having a fixed place of business or a permanent establishment or doing business in, or as a result of any present or former connection between such Lender, such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent with the jurisdiction imposing such Tax (other than any such connection arising solely from such Lender (and or such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office), such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent having executed, delivered or performed its obligations, or having received a payment, or having enforced its rights and remedies, under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents), (B) United States branch profits tax or any similar tax imposed by any jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, (C) in the case of a Lender (including such a Lender when acting in the capacity of L/C Issuer) organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, any United States withholding tax that is required to be imposed on amounts payable to such Lender (including such a Lender when acting in the capacity of L/C Issuer) pursuant to applicable laws in force at the time such Lender becomes a party hereto (or designates a new Applicable Lending Office), (D) as provided in Section 2.15(g), (E) any tax imposed by FATCA (or similar reporting and withholding regime imposed by the United Kingdom), (F) United Kingdom withholding Taxes except to the extent no United Kingdom withholding Taxes would have been imposed but for a change, after the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) becomes a party hereto, in United Kingdom tax law or officially published HM Revenue & Customs practice or an amendment or revocation, after the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) becomes a party hereto, of an applicable United Kingdom income tax treaty, and (G) United Kingdom Taxes imposed as a result of the failure of HM Revenue & Customs to approve, on or before a payment of interest to a Lender hereunder, a

91839933_4

claim by such Lender for exemption from such United Kingdom Taxes, where such failure is due to such Lender’s failure to submit a validly completed and executed Treaty Form within a reasonable time after such Lender would have been allowed to submit such Treaty Form, it being understood that after any such approval by HM Revenue & Customs of such Lender’s claim for exemption, such United Kingdom Taxes with respect to such Lender shall (for so long as such Lender remains eligible for the purpose of the relevant double tax treaty or would have remained eligible but for an amendment or revocation of the relevant treaty) not be excluded by this clause (G) from the application of this Section 2.15(a) (any non-excluded Taxes hereinafter referred to as “Indemnifiable Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Indemnifiable Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder, under any Note issued hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender, any L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent or, if the Administrative Agent shall be required by law to deduct any Indemnifiable Taxes from or in respect of any sum paid or payable hereunder, under any Note or under any other Loan Document to any Lender or any L/C Issuer, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions for Indemnifiable Taxes (including deductions for Indemnifiable Taxes, whether by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) such Lender, such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower (or, as the case may be and as required by applicable law, the Administrative Agent) shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower (or, as the case may be and as required by applicable law, the Administrative Agent) shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall timely pay in accordance with applicable laws any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise (other than income) or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder, under the Notes or under any other Loan Document or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or performing under this Agreement, the Notes, any other Loan Document or any document to be furnished under or in connection with any thereof or any modification or amendment in respect of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”); provided that for the avoidance of doubt, the Taxes imposed by FATCA shall not be treated as Other Taxes.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender, each L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on or paid by such Lender, such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and reasonable expenses) (including Indemnifiable Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.15) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender, such L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor, whether or not such Indemnifiable Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Indemnifiable Taxes under Section 2.15(a) by the Borrower, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 8.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such

91839933_4

payment to the extent such receipt is received by the Borrower, or other written proof of payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent showing payment thereof. In the case of any payment hereunder or under the Notes issued hereunder by or on behalf of the Borrower organized under the laws of the United Kingdom through an account or branch outside the United Kingdom or by or on behalf of the Borrower by a payor that is not a United Kingdom person, if the Borrower determines that no Indemnifiable Taxes are payable in respect thereof, the Borrower shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Indemnifiable Taxes.

(e) Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender and on the date of the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each other Lender, and from time to time thereafter as requested in writing by the Borrower shall provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with (i) two original Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, W-8ECI, or W-8IMY as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States withholding tax and (ii) to the extent that any such form or other certification becomes obsolete with respect to any Lender, such Lender shall, upon the written request of the Borrower to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, promptly provide either an updated or successor form or certification to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent unless, in each case, any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred after the date such Lender becomes a party hereunder which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Each Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable laws or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of

91839933_4

Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i). Solely for purposes of this clause (e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(f) Each Lender shall cooperate with the Borrower in promptly completing any procedural formalities necessary for the Borrower to obtain authorization to make any payment hereunder, under the Notes or under any other Loan Document, without deduction or withholding for or on account of the United Kingdom Tax, including (if applicable): (i)(A) as soon as reasonably practicable following the date it becomes a party hereto, submitting to its Relevant Taxing Authority a validly completed Treaty Form (or successor Treaty Form thereto) claiming exemption from United Kingdom withholding Tax on interest, or (B) on or before the date it becomes a party hereto, furnishing to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit I (a “U.K. Tax Compliance Certificate”) certifying that such Lender (1) is a “bank” within the meaning of Section 879 of the Income Tax Xxx 0000 of the United Kingdom and (2) is within the charge to corporation tax in the United Kingdom with respect to payment hereunder; and (ii) agreeing, upon reasonable request by the Borrower, to provide to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, such other forms or information as may be required by law in order to establish the legal entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from United Kingdom withholding Tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and the Notes issued hereunder, unless, in each case, any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred after the date such Lender becomes a party hereunder which renders any such forms or information inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form or providing such information with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(g) For any period with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate form described in Section 2.15(e) (other than if the Borrower has failed to timely request with reasonable notice any appropriate renewal, successor or other form or if any such form otherwise is not required under subsection (e) or (f)) or for which any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 8.06(d)(iii) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register are required to be paid, such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.15(a) or (c) with respect to Indemnifiable Taxes imposed by the United Kingdom or the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender become subject to Indemnifiable Taxes or United Kingdom or United States withholding Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Indemnifiable Taxes or United Kingdom or United States withholding Taxes.

(h) If a condition or an event occurs which would, or would upon the passage of time or giving notice, result in the payment of any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office and each L/C Issuer agrees to use its reasonable efforts to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates if the making of such a change or assignment would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or such L/C Issuer, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender or such L/C Issuer.

91839933_4

(i) If the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender, in its sole opinion exercised in good faith, determines that it has finally and irrevocably received or been granted a refund in respect of any Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes as to which indemnification has been paid by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.15(a) or (c), it shall promptly remit such refund to the Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender; provided, however, that the Borrower upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender, agrees promptly to return such refund to such party in the event such party is required to repay such refund to the relevant taxing authority. The Administrative Agent, such L/C Issuer or such Lender shall provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice or assessment from the relevant taxing authority (deleting any confidential information contained therein) requiring the repayment of such refund. Nothing contained herein shall impose an obligation on the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender to apply for any refund or to disclose to any party any information regarding their proprietary information regarding tax affairs and computations. If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Taxes for which indemnification has been demanded hereunder, the relevant Lender, the relevant L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to the extent permitted by law, rule or regulation, shall reasonably cooperate with the Borrower in challenging such Taxes at the Borrower’s expense if so requested by the Borrower in writing. If any Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes are imposed that result in an indemnification or payment obligation on the Borrower, the Borrower shall be entitled to challenge or dispute the imposition of such Indemnifiable Taxes or Other Taxes with the applicable taxing authority in an appropriate proceeding diligently conducted, and the Borrower shall be permitted to control such proceeding, including as to settlement.

(j) If a Lender changes its Applicable Lending Office or an L/C Issuer assigns its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates (other than pursuant to subsection (g) above or Section 2.12 or 2.13) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause the Borrower to become obligated to pay any additional amounts under this Section 2.15, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount.

(k) A certificate of a Lender or an L/C Issuer setting forth such amount or amounts as shall be necessary to compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer specified in Section 2.15(a), (b), or (c) above, as the case may be, and identifying with reasonable specificity the basis for calculation of such amount or amounts, shall be delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(l) The obligations of a Lender and an L/C Issuer under this Section 2.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Advances and all other Obligations hereunder.

(m) Where the Borrower or Guarantor is required under any provision of this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document issued hereunder to reimburse or indemnify the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer and/or any Lender for any cost or expense, then, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the amount payable shall not include any amount or amounts in respect of VAT to the extent that the recipient reasonably determines that it or any

91839933_4

of its Affiliates is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

Section 2.16 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances owing to it (other than pursuant to Section 2.12, 2.15 or 8.04(c)), or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans held by it, in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances (and subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans) owing to them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all of its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment that is in excess of such Lender’s ratable share made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including those provisions providing for the application of funds when a Defaulting Lender exists) or (y) the application of Cash Collateral or other credit support (and proceeds thereof) in respect of obligations relating to Letters of Credit (including related Lender participation obligations) provided for in Section 2.18.

Section 2.17 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) solely for working capital, capital expenditures, general corporate purposes and all other lawful purposes.

Section 2.18 Cash Collateral and Other Credit Support.

(a) Certain Credit Support Events.

(i) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any L/C Issuer (A) if such L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, (B) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, or (C) if the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations exceeds the Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Borrower shall, in the case of clause (A) and (B) above, promptly Cash Collateralize 100% of the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, and in the case of clause (C) above, promptly Cash Collateralize 100% of such excess.

91839933_4

(ii) At any time (A) a Defaulting Lender exists, (B)(1) the Borrower requests a Letter of Credit or (2) a Letter of Credit is outstanding, and (C) the Pro Rata Share Percentages of each non-Defaulting Lender cannot fully be adjusted as set forth in Section 8.16(a)(iv), then the Administrative Agent and the applicable L/C Issuer, may, in their sole discretion, require that the Borrower enter into arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such L/C Issuer for the delivery of Cash Collateral to the Administrative Agent in an amount sufficient to cover all of such L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 8.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). With respect to the circumstances described in clause (B)(1) above, such arrangements shall be a condition to the issuance of such Letter of Credit. With respect to the circumstances described in clause (B)(2) above, such arrangements shall be made no later than five (5) Business Days after written notice to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent or the applicable L/C Issuer that the circumstances in clause (A) and (C) above exist, unless the Borrower (x) has replaced such Defaulting Lender prior to such time in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or (y) caused such Letter of Credit to be terminated or replaced.

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Lender, agree that to the extent any Cash Collateral is provided to the Administrative Agent under any of this Section 2.18 or Sections 2.03, 2.11, 6.02 or 8.16, the Borrower or such Lender, as applicable, will at such time grant to (and subject to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers and the Lenders, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral (including all deposit accounts and all balances therein, all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and all proceeds of the foregoing) pursuant to a security agreement and a Cash Collateral account control agreement, in each case, to be mutually agreed and entered into between the Borrower, or the Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, and the Administrative Agent, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.18(c). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.18 or Sections 2.03, 2.11, 6.02 or 8.16 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination

91839933_4

of the applicable L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 8.06(b)(vi))) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.18 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 6.02), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the applicable L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

(e) Claims against Defaulting Lenders. No action taken, permitted to be taken or omitted to be taken by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender under this Section 2.18 or any of the other terms or provisions of this Agreement shall constitute or be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any other Lender may have against a Defaulting Lender for its failure to comply with any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement.

Section 2.19 Increase in Commitments.

(a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may from time to time request an increase in the Total Commitments to a maximum amount (after giving effect to all such requests) not to exceed $2,000,000,000; provided that any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000. The Borrower may offer such increase to the Lenders and, at their option, to other financial institutions which qualify as Eligible Assignees identified by the Borrower and approved by the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuers (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender and, as applicable, each Eligible Assignee, is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders and to such Eligible Assignees).

(b) Elections to Increase. Each Lender and, as applicable, each Eligible Assignee, shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to participate in such increase and, if so, by the amount thereof. Any Lender or Eligible Assignee not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to participate in such requested increase.

(c) Notification by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower, each Lender and, as applicable, each Eligible Assignee of the Lenders’ and such Eligible Assignees’ responses to each request made hereunder. Each Eligible Assignee invited to participate in such requested increase, and which agrees to do so, shall become a Lender under this Agreement pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.

91839933_4

(d) Effective Date and Allocations. If the Total Commitments are increased in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such increase. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders (including any Eligible Assignee that becomes a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.19) of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date. Simultaneously with the Increase Effective Date, (i) the Commitments of each of the Lenders and the outstanding amount of all Advances shall be reallocated to take into account such increase and the final allocation thereof, and the requisite assignments shall be deemed to be made among the Lenders (including any Eligible Assignee that becomes a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.19), with the same force and effect as if such assignments were evidenced by the applicable Assignments and Assumptions but without the payment of any related assignment fee, and no other documents or instruments shall be, or shall be required to be, executed in connection with such assignments (all of which such requirements are hereby waived), and (ii) each assignee Lender shall make full cash settlement with each corresponding assignor Lender, either directly or through the Administrative Agent, as the Administrative Agent may direct or approve, with respect to all such assignments and reallocations.

(e) Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase. As a condition precedent to such increase, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Loan Party dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender (including any Eligible Assignee that becomes a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.19) ) signed by an authorized signatory of such Loan Party (x) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (y) in the case of the Borrower, certifying that, immediately before and after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article IV and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Increase Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 2.19, the representations and warranties contained in Section 4.01(f) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to Section 5.01(h), and (B) no Default exists or will result from the increase in the Total Commitment.

(f) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.16 or 8.01 to the contrary.

Section 4.01 Representations and Warranties of the Parent and the Borrower. Each of the Parent and the Borrower represents and warrants as follows:

(a) Each Loan Party (i) is duly organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, (ii) is duly qualified and in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which it owns or leases property or in which the conduct of its business requires it to so qualify or be licensed except where the failure to so qualify or be licensed is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect and (iii) has all requisite power and authority (including, without limitation, all governmental licenses, permits and other approvals) to own or lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted except where failure to possess such power or authority is not reasonably likely to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Set forth on Schedule 4.01(b) hereto is a complete and accurate list of all Subsidiaries of the Parent as of the Effective Date, showing as of such date (as to each such Subsidiary) the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization. All of the outstanding capital stock of all such Subsidiaries has been validly issued, is fully paid and non-assessable and, other than directors’ qualifying shares, is owned by the Parent or one or more of its Subsidiaries free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens).

Subsidiary (including any Excluded Subsidiary) or for which the Parent or any Subsidiary (including any Excluded Subsidiary) provides advisory, administrative, supervisory, management, consulting, underwriting or similar services, provided that such transaction is not prohibited under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 or other applicable law, rule, regulation or order; and

(iii) any transaction with an Affiliate so long as such transaction is approved by a majority of the Disinterested Directors of the Parent or the applicable Subsidiary who is entering into such transaction with such Affiliate.

(g) Subsidiary Debt. Permit its Subsidiaries, other than (1) the Borrower and (2) any Finance Subsidiary (subject to the last sentence of this subsection (g)), collectively to create or incur Adjusted Debt attributable to such Subsidiaries if immediately after giving effect to such creation or incurrence, the aggregate principal amount of Adjusted Debt attributable to such Subsidiaries would exceed the greater of (A) $500,000,000 and (B) thirty percent (30%) of EBITDA for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended on or immediately prior to such time; provided, however, that the foregoing restriction shall not apply to any (i) Adjusted Debt attributable to a Subsidiary (including any Person that will be or become a Subsidiary) of the Parent (including any refinancings, amendments or extensions of such Adjusted Debt that do not increase, or provide for the increase of, the aggregate principal amount of such Adjusted Debt) that is assumed in connection with (but not established in contemplation of) (A) a transaction that is permitted pursuant to Section 5.02(b) or (B) the purchase or acquisition of all of the capital stock of, or all or substantially all of the assets of, another Person, (ii) Subsidiary Non-Recourse Debt, (iii) letters of credit entered into pursuant to and in accordance with regulatory requirements in the ordinary course of such Subsidiary's unit investment trust business, (iv) Permitted Unit Investment Trust Debt to the extent that (A) any such Debt is not outstanding for longer than 5 consecutive Business Days, and (B) so long as such Debt is outstanding, it is supported by readily marketable securities that are in an amount sufficient to repay such Debt and accrued interest thereon and fees associated therewith and that are held in trust or otherwise set aside for the repayment of such Permitted Unit Investment Trust Debt, or if there is an insufficiency in such amount, the amount of such insufficiency shall be otherwise permitted under this Section 5.02(g), and (v) guarantee by a Subsidiary of any Debt qualifying under clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 5.02(g). For the avoidance of doubt, “Adjusted Debt” shall exclude (x) Debt of any Subsidiary owing to the Parent or any other Subsidiary and (y) Debt of the Parent owing to any Subsidiary. With respect to any Non-Loan Party Xxxxx, such Non-Loan Party Xxxxx shall only be excluded from the foregoing restrictions so long as such Non-Loan Party Xxxxx remains a Finance Subsidiary; provided that, in the event a Non-Loan Party Xxxxx shall make any loan or other advance (a “Xxxxx Loan”) to any Subsidiary of the Parent that is not a Loan Party (such Subsidiary, a “Xxxxx Loan Recipient”), such Xxxxx Loan shall be subject to an intercreditor agreement among all Xxxxx Loan Recipients effectively providing for pari passu treatment with respect to the Obligations and the Debt of each Non-Loan Party Xxxxx, such intercreditor agreement to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. So long as doing so would not result in a Non-Loan Party Xxxxx ceasing to be or qualify as a Finance Subsidiary, each Non-Loan Party Xxxxx that makes a Xxxxx Loan to a Xxxxx Loan Recipient shall provide an acknowledgment and consent to such intercreditor agreement (and in the event such acknowledgment and consent would result in a Non-Loan Party Xxxxx ceasing to be or qualify as a Finance Subsidiary, the Parent shall instead

91839933_4

provide an acknowledgment and consent to such intercreditor agreement for itself and on behalf of its Subsidiaries).

(h) Sanctions. Directly or, to its knowledge, indirectly, use the proceeds of any extension of credit hereunder, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other individual or entity, to fund any activities of or business with any individual or entity that, at the time of such funding, is a Sanctioned Person.

(i) Anti-Corruption Laws. Directly or, to its knowledge, indirectly use the proceeds of any extension of credit hereunder for any purpose which would violate the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, the UK Xxxxxxx Xxx 0000, or other similar anti-corruption legislation in other jurisdictions applicable to it or the Currency and Foreign Transactions Reporting Act of 1970, as amended, the money laundering statutes of all jurisdictions applicable to it or the rules and regulations thereunder.

Section 5.03 Financial Covenants. So long as any Advance shall remain unpaid or any Lender shall have any Commitment hereunder or any Letter of Credit or other L/C Obligation shall remain outstanding, the Parent will:

(a) Debt/EBITDA Ratio. Maintain at the end of each fiscal quarter of the Parent a Debt/EBITDA Ratio not greater than 3.25 to 1.00.

(b) Coverage Ratio. Maintain at the end of each fiscal quarter of the Parent a ratio of EBITDA for the four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Parent ended on or immediately prior to the date of determination to interest expense attributable to, and amortization of debt discount in respect of, Adjusted Debt (excluding from Adjusted Debt for purposes of this Section 5.03(b) (i) Subsidiary Non-Recourse Debt and (ii) so long as the Parent and its Subsidiaries own 100% of the Office Equipment Sale and Leaseback Bonds, liabilities with respect to the Office Equipment Sale and Leaseback Lease, in each case to the extent otherwise included in Adjusted Debt) for such period, of not less than 4.00 to 1.00.

ARTICLE VII

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 7.01 Appointment and Authority. Each of the Lenders and each of the L/C Issuers hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Section 7.02 Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 7.03 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

91839933_4

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any debtor relief law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any debtor relief law; and

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent, the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 6.01 and 8.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment, provided, such limitation of liability of the Administrative Agent shall not prohibit or limit any cause of action the Borrower may otherwise have against any Lender. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an L/C Issuer.

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Section 7.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and reasonably believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of an Advance, or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit,

91839933_4

that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Advance or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Parent or the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 7.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

Section 7.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States, which appointment shall, provided that no Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above, which appointment shall, provided that no Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Borrower and/or the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and appoint a successor, which appointment shall, provided that no Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders

91839933_4

and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each L/C Issuer directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 2.15(l) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 8.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

(d) Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as an L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender. If Bank of America resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Advances or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c). If Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon the appointment by the Borrower of a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Lender that is not a Defaulting Lender and that has consented to such appointment), (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable, (b) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.

91839933_4

Section 7.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

91839933_4

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Article VI for the benefit of all the Lenders and the L/C Issuers; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 8.05 (subject to the terms of Section 2.16), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any debtor relief law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article VI and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.16, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

91839933_4

(including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) the Notes, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any of the transactions contemplated herein or therein (including any refusal by any L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances, or, in the case of the Administrative Agent (and any such sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense resulted from (i) such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, (ii) the material breach of such Indemnified Party’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) as finally determined in a nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (iii) any claim, damage, loss, liability or expense to the extent resulting from the claim of any Indemnified Party solely against one or more other Indemnified Parties (and not by one or more Indemnified Parties against the Administrative Agent or any Arranger in such capacity) that has not resulted from the action, inaction, participation or contribution of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors or other representatives. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 8.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, its respective directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person and regardless of whether any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. This Section 8.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent claims, damages, losses, liabilities, expenses, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) Other Costs. If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurocurrency Rate Advance is made (i) by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.09(d), 2.11 or 2.13, acceleration of the maturity of the Notes pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or (ii) by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance upon an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.06 as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to Section 8.11, or (iii) as part of a re-allocation of the Commitments of the Lenders as a result of an increase in Commitments pursuant to Section 2.19, then the Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance, less the return such Lender reasonably expects to receive on its redeployment of funds.

(d) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any L/C Issuer or any Related Party thereof, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent),

91839933_4

such L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought and without regard to the last sentence in the definition of Pro Rata Share Percentage) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or any L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party thereof acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or any L/C Issuer in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (d) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(e).

(e) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and without in any way limiting the indemnification obligations set forth above, no party hereto shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnified Party referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby except as a result of such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence of willful misconduct.

(f) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor.

(g) Survival. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section and Sections 2.12 and 2.15 herein shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Total Commitment and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

Section 8.05 Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such L/C Issuer or the Note held by such Lender, whether or not such Lender or such L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or such Note and although such obligations may be unmatured; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent

91839933_4

and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender, each L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender, such L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates may have.

(A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment and the Advances and the L/C Advances at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; (B) and in any case not described in subsection b(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Advances of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $10,000,000 and increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such

91839933_4

consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met;

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Advances and the L/C Advances or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not apply to rights of the Swing Line Lender in respect of Swing Line Loans;

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and in addition:

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund;

(C) the consent of the L/C Issuers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding); and

(D) the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The Eligible Assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire and the Administrative Agent shall further deliver such administrative questionnaire to the Borrower.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower, the Parent or any of the Borrower’s or Parent’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person

91839933_4

which, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural person.

(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment by such Lender shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the applicable assignor or assignee shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Advances and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(vii) Limitation of Borrower Liability. If a Lender changes its Applicable Lending Office and, as a result of circumstances existing at the date the change occurs, the Borrower, or any other Loan Party, would be obliged to make a payment to such Lender acting through its new Applicable Lending Office under Section 2.15, then such Lender acting through its new Applicable Lending Office is only entitled to receive payment under such Section to the same extent as the Lender acting through its previous Applicable Lending Office, would have been if the change had not occurred.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement with respect to the interest assigned and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement in addition to any rights and obligations it may theretofore have as a Lender, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.15, and 8.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such

91839933_4

Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Advances and L/C Advances owing to each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender of which it has received notice. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and the Lenders at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations.

(i) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers or the Swing Line Lender, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural person, a Defaulting Lender, the Parent, the Borrower or any of the Parent’s or the Borrower’s respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Advances (including such Lender’s participations L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuers, the Swing Line Lender and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 8.04(d) without regard to the existence of any participation.

(ii) Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 8.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.15 and 8.04 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall

91839933_4

be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.05 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender.

(iii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a nonfiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Limitation upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12 or 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.15 as though it were a Lender.

(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note(s), if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) Resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America or Citibank assigns all of its Commitment and Advances pursuant to subsection (b) above, (i) Bank of America or Citibank, as applicable, may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as an L/C Issuer and/or (ii) Bank of America may, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America or Citibank as an L/C Issuer or Bank of America as Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of America or Citibank resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an L/C

91839933_4

Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Advances or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Advances or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon the appointment of a successor and acceptance of such appointment by the successor L/C Issuer and/or Swing Line Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America or Citibank to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America or Citibank, as the case may be, with respect to such Letters of Credit.

(C) With respect to any Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans that has been reallocated to such non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the applicable L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such L/C Issuer’s or Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) Reallocation of Pro Rata Share Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans pursuant to Sections 2.03 and 2.04, the “Pro Rata Share Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (ii) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Advances and L/C Advances of that Lender. Subject to Section 8.21, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Line Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (a)(iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under applicable law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the applicable L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.18.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and the L/C Issuers agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in

105

91839933_4

accordance with their Pro Rata Share Percentage (without giving effect to Section 8.16(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

The Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender will promptly notify the Borrower at the time the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender determines or is otherwise informed of the existence of a Defaulting Lender.

Section 8.17 No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Parent, the Borrower and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Arrangers, on the other hand, (B) each of the Parent and the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) each of the Parent and the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each Arranger is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender or Arranger has any obligation to any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Arranger and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender or Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Loan Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

Section 8.18 Interest Rate Limitation. 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 excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Advances or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by

106

91839933_4

applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 8.19 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.19, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by the bankruptcy code of the United States or any comparable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization or other debtor relief laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 8.20 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation Assignment and Assumptions, amendments or other modifications, Advance Notices, Swing Line Loan Notices, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it.

Section 8.21 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Lender that is an EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

107

91839933_4

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any Lender that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

FORM OF PARENT GUARANTY

FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED GUARANTY

(Parent)

This FOURTH AMENDED AND RESTATED GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”) dated August 11, 2017 made by INVESCO LTD., an exempted company incorporated in the Islands of Bermuda (the “Guarantor”), in favor of the Administrative Agent, each of the L/C Issuers and each of the Lenders (as each such term is defined in the Credit Agreement referred to below).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT.

A. Invesco Finance PLC, a public limited company organized under the laws of England and Wales (the “Borrower”), the Guarantor, the lenders party thereto (the “Existing Lenders”), and the Administrative Agent are parties to that certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as August 7, 2015 (the “Existing Credit Agreement”);

B. Pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement, the Guarantor and the Administrative Agent entered into that certain Third Amended and Restated Guaranty dated as of August 7, 2015 (the “Existing Guaranty”);

C. Pursuant to the terms of that certain Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among the Borrower, the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and each of the lenders now or hereafter party thereto (the “Lenders”) (as from time to time amended, revised, modified, supplemented or amended and restated, the “Credit Agreement”; all capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings provided therefor in the Credit Agreement), the Lenders have agreed to continue the loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement, and to amend and restate the credit facilities thereunder; and

D. The Guarantor may receive a portion of the proceeds of the Advances under the Credit Agreement and will derive substantial direct and indirect benefit from the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement. It is a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement and the making of Advances by the Lenders thereunder that the Existing Guaranty be amended and restated by the execution and delivery of this Guaranty by the Guarantor.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and in order to induce the Lenders to make Advances under the Credit Agreement from time to time, the Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

Section 1. Guaranty; Limitation of Liability. (a) The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of each other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise (such obligations, including, without limitation, the obligations of the Borrower under Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement,

D-1

Form of Parent Guaranty

92155415

being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender in enforcing any rights under this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by a Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender under the Loan Documents but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such Loan Party.

(b) The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of any Loan Document, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, the recovery of any judgment against the Borrower, any action to enforce the same, or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of the Guarantor (other than a defense of payment in full or complete performance). The Guarantor hereby waives the benefit of diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Borrower, any right to require a proceeding first against the Borrower, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever. This Guaranty is a guarantee of payment and not of collection.

(c) Subject to reinstatement pursuant to Section 10, the Guarantor hereby covenants that this Guaranty shall not be discharged except by complete performance of the obligations contained in the Credit Agreement, the Notes and this Guaranty.

(d) The Guarantor, and by its acceptance of this Guaranty, the Administrative Agent, each L/C Issuer and each Lender, hereby confirms that it is the intention of all such Persons that this Guaranty and the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of bankruptcy law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to this Guaranty and the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder.

If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in another currency into Dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Administrative Agent could purchase such other currency with Dollars in New York City, New York, at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given, together with any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with such purchase.

4.2	Each signature is the genuine signature of the individual concerned.


4.3	The documents referred to in paragraphs 3.3 and 3.4 are up-to-date.


4.4	The written resolutions referred to in paragraph 3.5 were validly passed and remain in full force and effect without modification.


4.5	The Agreement and the Notes are within the capacity and powers of, and have been validly authorised and signed by, each party other than the Borrower.


4.6	The Agreement and the Notes have been signed on behalf of the Borrower by the person(s) authorised by the written resolution referred to in paragraph 3.5.


4.7	The Agreement and the Notes are valid, binding and enforceable on each party under New York law by which they are expressed to be governed.


4.8	The Agreement and the Notes have the same meaning and effect under New York law as they would have if they were interpreted under English law by an English court and there are no provisions of New York law which would affect this opinion.


4.9	There are no dealings between the parties that affect the Agreement or the Notes.


4.10	None of the proceeds of the facilities provided pursuant to the Agreement will be used directly or indirectly to finance or refinance an acquisition of shares in contravention of Sections 678 or 679 of the Companies Xxx 0000 (as amended).


4.11	All applicable provisions of the Financial Services and Markets Xxx 0000 and any applicable secondary legislation made under it have been complied with with respect to the Agreement and the Notes.


4.12	The Notes are not and will not be offered or sold in the UK, except to any person whose ordinary activities involve them in acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses and no public offer of the Notes

\9089893.2

will be made in the UK, except in the circumstances set out in Section 86 of the Financial Services and Markets Xxx 0000.


4.13	With respect to the Notes, this opinion speaks as if the Notes have been entered into on the date of the Agreement in all material respects in the same form as the template referred to in paragraph 3.2.


5	Opinion

Based on the documents referred to and assumptions in paragraphs 3 and 4 and subject to the qualifications in paragraph 6 and to any matters not disclosed to us, we are of the following opinion:


5.1	The Borrower has been incorporated and is existing as a company with limited liability under the laws of England.


5.2	The Borrower has the corporate power to enter into and perform the Agreement and the Notes.


5.3	The Borrower has taken all necessary corporate action to authorise its entry into and performance of the Agreement and the Notes.


5.4	Under English law, there are no governmental or regulatory consents, approvals or authorisations required by the Borrower for its entry into and performance of the Agreement or the Notes.


5.5	Under English law, there are no registration, filing or similar formalities required to ensure the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability against the Borrower of the Agreement or the Notes.


5.6	The entry into and performance of the Agreement and the Notes by the Borrower does not violate English law or the Memorandum or Articles of Association of the Borrower.


5.7	Save for in the circumstances set out in paragraphs 6.11 and 6.12, if proceedings were brought before the English courts and the choice of New York law as the governing law of the Agreement is pleaded and proved as a fact in accordance with English procedural and evidential rules, the choice of New York law as the governing law of the Agreement would be recognised in England.


5.8	A final and conclusive judgment against the Borrower for the payment of a specific sum of money rendered by a United States Federal or New York State court sitting in New York City arising out of or in connection with the Agreement or the Notes will be recognised by and enforceable in the English courts as creating a debt enforceable against the Borrower if:


(i)	the foreign court had jurisdiction over the Borrower in accordance with English law (and, in our opinion, for these purposes, the English courts will recognise a contractual submission to the jurisdiction of a United States Federal or New York State court sitting in New York City);


(ii)	the foreign judgment was not contrary to English public policy, for multiple damages or based on a provision of law specified under the Protection of Trading Xxxxxxxxx Xxx 0000 nor obtained by fraud or in breach of the rules of natural justice;

\9089893.2


(iii)	the foreign judgment was not inconsistent with an earlier judgment relating to the same issue of a court having jurisdiction over the matter;


(iv)	the foreign judgment does not require the Borrower to perform an act which would be illegal in the country of performance; and


(v)	the foreign proceedings were not of a revenue or penal nature.

Enforcement of the judgment may, however, be stayed if it is subject to appeal in the country in which it was given.


5.9	No stamp duty or registration or similar tax is payable under English law in connection with the parties entering into the Agreement or the Notes.


6	Qualifications

This opinion is subject to the following qualifications:


6.1	This opinion is subject to any limitations arising from bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, moratorium, reorganisation and other laws of general application relating to or affecting the rights of creditors.


6.2	The enforcement in England of the Agreement, the Notes and of foreign judgments will be subject to English rules of civil procedure.


6.3	In England, remedies such as specific performance and injunction may not be available.


6.4	An English court may not give effect to Section 8.04 (Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver) of the Agreement in respect of the costs of litigation brought before an English court.


6.5	A certificate, determination, notification, opinion or the like might be held by the English courts not to be conclusive, final or binding if it could be shown to have an unreasonable or arbitrary basis or in the event of manifest error despite any provision in the Agreement to the contrary.


6.6	We do not express any opinion as to any taxation matters, except for paragraph 5.9.


6.7	Claims may become barred under the Limitation Xxx 0000.


6.8	So far as they relate to United Kingdom stamp duties, the undertakings and indemnities given by the Borrower in Section 2.15 (Taxes) of the Agreement may be void under Section 117 of the Stamp Xxx 0000.


6.9	Any provision of the Agreement which constitutes, or purports to constitute, a restriction on the exercise of any statutory power may be ineffective.

6.10

Our opinion that the Borrower is existing is based on the Search and the Telephone Search. It should be noted that the Search and the Telephone Search are not capable of revealing conclusively whether or not a winding-up or administration petition or order has been presented or made, a receiver appointed, a company voluntary arrangement proposed or approved or any other insolvency proceeding commenced.

\9089893.2


6.11	If proceedings were brought before the English courts, effect may be given to the overriding mandatory provisions of the law of the country where the obligations arising out of a contract have to be or have been performed, in so far as those provisions render the performance of the contract unlawful. In such circumstances, the relevant obligations may not be enforceable.


6.12	Further circumstances referred to in paragraph 5.7 are as follows:


(a)	where all other elements relevant to the Agreement at the time of the choice are located in:


(i)	a country other than the United States, it is possible that the choice of New York law will not prejudice the application of provisions of the law of that other country which cannot be derogated from by agreement;


(ii)	one or more EU Member States, it is possible that the choice of New York law will not prejudice the application of provisions of EU law (where appropriate, as implemented in England) which cannot be derogated from by agreement;


(b)	the English courts may have regard to the law of the country in which performance takes place in relation to the manner of performance and the steps to be taken in the event of defective performance; and


(c)	the English courts may not be restricted from applying overriding mandatory provisions of English law and if there is a provision of New York law that is manifestly incompatible with English public policy, it is possible that the English courts may not apply it.


6.13	Any provision of the Agreement which restricts or purports to restrict the Borrower’s choice of statutory auditor may be ineffective under Regulation (EU) 537/2014 and/or Directive 2014/56/EU.


7	Reliance

This opinion is solely for your benefit and solely for the purpose of the Agreement and the Notes. It is not to be transmitted to anyone else nor is it to be relied upon by anyone else or for any other purpose or quoted or referred to in any public document or filed with anyone without our written consent, except as otherwise required by law or regulation or in connection with any legal proceedings in relation to the Agreement or the Notes, and provided that a copy may be provided to your professional advisers, auditors and regulators, solely for the purpose of the Agreement and the Notes and of giving their opinion and subject to the same restrictions.

Dear Sirs

Invesco Ltd. (Company)

We have acted as Bermuda legal counsel to the Company in connection with the fourth amended and restated credit agreement among Invesco Finance PLC, as Borrower, the Company, as Parent, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent for the Lenders (Administrative Agent), Swing Line Lender and an L/C Issuer, and each of the Initial Lenders dated 11 August 2017 (Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement). We have been asked to provide this legal opinion in connection with Section 3.01(c)(viii) of the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement in respect of the following agreements:


(i)	the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement; and


(ii)	the Fourth Amended and Restated Parent Guaranty (as defined in the schedule to this opinion (Schedule)).

(The Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the Fourth Amended and Restated Parent Guaranty are hereinafter collectively referred to as the Subject Agreements)

For the purposes of this opinion we have examined and relied upon the documents (Documents) listed, and in some cases defined, in the Schedule together with such other documentation as we have considered requisite to this opinion. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalised terms have the meanings assigned to them in the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.


1.	Assumptions

92155415

In stating our opinion we have assumed:


1.1	the authenticity, accuracy and completeness of all Documents and other documentation examined by us submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic original documents of all Documents and other such documentation submitted to us as certified, conformed, notarised, faxed or photostatic copies;


1.2	that each of the Documents and other such documentation which was received by electronic means is complete, intact and in conformity with the transmission as sent;


1.3	the genuineness of all signatures on the Documents;


1.4	the authority, capacity and power of each of the persons signing the Documents (other than the Company in respect of the Subject Agreements);


1.5	that any representation, warranty or statement of fact or law, other than as to the laws of Bermuda, made in any of the Documents is true, accurate and complete;


1.6	that the Subject Agreements constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of each of the parties thereto, other than the Company, under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or its jurisdiction of formation;


1.7	that the Subject Agreements have been validly authorised, executed and delivered by each of the parties thereto, other than the Company, and the performance thereof is within the capacity and powers of each such party thereto, and that each such party to which the Company purportedly delivered the Subject Agreements has actually received and accepted delivery of such Subject Agreements;


1.8	that the Subject Agreements will effect, and will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of each of the parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with their terms, under the laws of the State of New York by which they are expressed to be governed;


1.9	that the Subject Agreements are in the proper legal form to be admissible in evidence and enforced in the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County and the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York (New York Courts) and in accordance with the laws of the State of New York;

1.10

that there are no provisions of the laws or regulations of any jurisdiction other than Bermuda which would be contravened by the execution or delivery of the Subject Agreements or which would have any implication in relation to the opinion expressed herein and that, in so far as any obligation under, or action to be taken under, the Subject Agreements is required to be performed or taken in any jurisdiction outside Bermuda, the performance of such obligation or the taking of such action will constitute a valid and binding obligation of each of the parties thereto under the laws of that jurisdiction and will not be illegal by virtue of the laws of that jurisdiction;

\9089893.2


1.11	that none of the parties to the Subject Agreements maintains a place of business (as defined in section 4(6) of the Investment Business Act 2003), in Bermuda;


1.12	that the records which were the subject of the Company Search were complete and accurate at the time of such search and disclosed all information which is material for the purposes of this opinion and such information has not since the date and time of the Company Search been materially altered;


1.13	that the records which were the subject of the Litigation Search were complete and accurate at the time of such search and disclosed all information which is material for the purposes of this opinion and such information has not since the date and time of the Litigation Search been materially altered;

1.14

that the Resolutions are in full force and effect, have not been rescinded, either in whole or in part, and accurately record the resolutions passed by the Board of Directors of the Company (Board) in a meeting which was duly convened and at which a duly constituted quorum was present and voting throughout or adopted by the ad hoc committee of the Board as unanimous written resolutions of the ad hoc committee, as the case may be, and that there is no matter affecting the authority of the Directors of the Company to effect entry by the Company into the Subject Agreements, not disclosed by the Constitutional Documents or the Resolutions, which would have any adverse implication in relation to the opinions expressed herein;

1.15

that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from time to time party to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement have no express or constructive knowledge of any circumstance whereby any Director of the Company, when the Board or the ad hoc committee, as the case may be, passed the Resolutions, failed to discharge his fiduciary duty owed to the Company and to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company;


1.16	that the Company has entered into its obligations under the Subject Agreements in good faith for the purpose of carrying on its business and that, at the time it did so, there were reasonable grounds for believing that the transactions contemplated by the Subject Agreements would benefit the Company; and


1.17	that each transaction to be entered into pursuant to the Subject Agreements is entered into in good faith and for full value and will not have the effect of preferring one creditor over another.


2.	Opinion

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject to the reservations set out below and to any matters not disclosed to us, we are of the opinion that:


2.1	The Company is an exempted company incorporated with limited liability and existing under the laws of Bermuda. The Company possesses the capacity to xxx and be sued in its own name and is in good standing under the laws of Bermuda.

\9089893.2


2.2	The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter into, execute, deliver, and perform its obligations under the Subject Agreements and to take all action as may be necessary to complete the transactions contemplated thereby.


2.3	The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Subject Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorised by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company.


2.4	The Subject Agreements have been duly executed by the Company and each constitutes legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

2.5

Subject as otherwise provided in this opinion, no consent, licence or authorisation of, filing with, or other act by or in respect of, any governmental authority or court of Bermuda is required to be obtained by the Company in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of the Subject Agreements or to ensure the legality, validity, admissibility into evidence or enforceability as to the Company, of the Subject Agreements.


2.6	The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Subject Agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby do not and will not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) any requirement of any law or any regulation of Bermuda or (ii) the Constitutional Documents.

2.7

The choice of the laws of the State of New York as the proper law to govern the Subject Agreements is a valid choice of law under Bermuda law and such choice of law would be recognised, upheld and applied by the courts of Bermuda as the proper law of the Subject Agreements in proceedings brought before them in relation to the Subject Agreements, provided that (i) the point is specifically pleaded; (ii) such choice of law is valid and binding under the laws of the State of New York; and (iii) recognition would not be contrary to public policy as that term is understood under Bermuda law (and, as at the date of this opinion, we are not aware of any reason why such recognition would be contrary to public policy as that term is understood under Bermuda law).


2.8	The submission by the Company to the jurisdiction of the New York Courts is not contrary to Bermuda law and would be recognised by the courts of Bermuda as a legal, valid and binding submission to the jurisdiction of the New York Courts, if such submission is accepted by such courts and is legal, valid and binding under the laws of the State of New York.

2.9

A final and conclusive judgment of a competent foreign court against the Company based upon the Subject Agreements (other than a court of jurisdiction to which The Judgments (Reciprocal Enforcement) Xxx 0000 applies, and it does not apply to the New York Courts) under which a sum of money is payable (not being a sum payable in respect of taxes or other charges of a like nature, in respect of a fine or other penalty, or in respect of multiple damages as defined in The Protection of Trading Interests Act 1981) may be the subject of enforcement proceedings

\9089893.2

in the Supreme Court of Bermuda under the common law doctrine of obligation by action on the debt evidenced by the judgment of such competent foreign court. A final opinion as to the availability of this remedy should be sought when the facts surrounding the foreign court’s judgment are known, but, on general principles, we would expect such proceedings to be successful provided that:


2.9.1	the court which gave the judgment was competent to hear the action in accordance with private international law principles as applied in Bermuda; and


2.9.2	the judgment is not contrary to public policy in Bermuda, has not been obtained by fraud or in proceedings contrary to natural justice and is not based on an error in Bermuda law.

Enforcement of such a judgment against assets in Bermuda may involve the conversion of the judgment debt into Bermuda dollars, but the Bermuda Monetary Authority has indicated that its present policy is to give the consents necessary to enable recovery in the currency of the obligation.

No stamp duty or similar or other tax or duty is payable in Bermuda on the enforcement of a foreign judgment. Court fees will be payable in connection with proceedings for enforcement.


2.10	Based solely upon the Company Search and the Litigation Search:


2.10.1	no litigation, administrative or other proceeding of or before any governmental authority of Bermuda is pending against the Company; and


2.10.2	no notice to the Registrar of Companies of the passing of a resolution of members or creditors to wind up or the appointment of a liquidator or receiver has been given. No petition to wind up the Company or application to reorganise its affairs pursuant to a scheme of arrangement or application for the appointment of a receiver has been filed with the Supreme Court.

2.11

The Company has received an assurance from the Ministry of Finance granting an exemption, until 31 March 2035, from the imposition of tax under any applicable Bermuda law computed on profits or income or computed on any capital asset, gain or appreciation, or any tax in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax, provided that such exemption shall not prevent the application of any such tax or duty to such persons as are ordinarily resident in Bermuda and shall not prevent the application of any tax payable in accordance with the provisions of the Land Tax Xxx 0000 or otherwise payable in relation to land in Bermuda leased to the Company. There are, subject as otherwise provided in this opinion, no Bermuda taxes, stamp or documentary taxes, duties or similar charges now due, or which could in the future become due, in connection with the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Subject Agreements or the transactions contemplated thereby, or in connection with the admissibility in

\9089893.2

evidence thereof and the Company is not required by any Bermuda law or regulation to make any deductions or withholdings in Bermuda from any payment it may make thereunder.


3.	Reservations

We have the following reservations:


3.1	The term “enforceable” as used in this opinion means that there is a way of ensuring that each party performs an agreement or that there are remedies available for breach.

3.2

We express no opinion as to the availability of equitable remedies such as specific performance or injunctive relief, or as to any matters which are within the discretion of the courts of Bermuda in respect of any obligations of the Company as set out in the Subject Agreements. In particular, we express no opinion as to the enforceability of any present or future waiver of any provision of law (whether substantive or procedural) or of any right or remedy which might otherwise be available presently or in the future under the Subject Agreements.


3.3	Enforcement of the obligations of the Company under the Subject Agreements may be limited or affected by applicable laws from time to time in effect relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation or any other laws or other legal procedures affecting generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights.


3.4	Enforcement of the obligations of the Company may be the subject of a statutory limitation of the time within which such proceedings may be brought.


3.5	We express no opinion as to any law other than Bermuda law and none of the opinions expressed herein relates to compliance with or matters governed by the laws of any jurisdiction except Bermuda. This opinion is limited to Bermuda law as applied by the Courts of Bermuda at the date hereof.


3.6	Where an obligation is to be performed in a jurisdiction other than Bermuda, the courts of Bermuda may refuse to enforce it to the extent that such performance would be illegal under the laws of, or contrary to public policy of, such other jurisdiction.


3.7	We express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision incorporated into any of the Subject Agreements by reference to a law other than that of Bermuda, or as to the availability in Bermuda of remedies which are available in other jurisdictions.


3.8	Where a person is vested with a discretion or may determine a matter in his or its opinion, such discretion may have to be exercised reasonably or such an opinion may have to be based on reasonable grounds.


3.9	Any provision in the Subject Agreements that certain calculations or certificates will be conclusive and binding will not be effective if such calculations or certificates are fraudulent or

\9089893.2

erroneous on their face and will not necessarily prevent juridical enquiries into the merits of any claim by an aggrieved party.

3.10

We express no opinion as to the validity or binding effect of any provision in the Subject Agreements for the payment of interest at a higher rate on overdue amounts than on amounts which are current, or that liquidated damages are or may be payable. Such a provision may not be enforceable if it could be established that the amount expressed as being payable was in the nature of a penalty; that is to say a requirement for a stipulated sum to be paid irrespective of, or necessarily greater than, the loss likely to be sustained. If it cannot be demonstrated to the Bermuda court that the higher payment was a reasonable pre-estimate of the loss suffered, the court will determine and award what it considers to be reasonable damages. Section 9 of The Interest and Credit Charges (Regulations) Xxx 0000 provides that the Bermuda courts have discretion as to the amount of interest, if any, payable on the amount of a judgment after date of judgment. If the Court does not exercise that discretion, then interest will accrue at the statutory rate which is currently 3.5% per annum.


3.11	We express no opinion as to the validity or binding effect of any provision of the Subject Agreements which provides for the severance of illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.


3.12	A Bermuda court may refuse to give effect to any provisions of the Subject Agreements in respect of costs of unsuccessful litigation brought before the Bermuda court or where that court has itself made an order for costs.


3.13	Searches of the Register of Companies at the office of the Registrar of Companies and of the Supreme Court Causes Book at the Registry of the Supreme Court are not conclusive and it should be noted that the Register of Companies and the Supreme Court Causes Book do not reveal:

3.13.1

details of matters which have been lodged for filing or registration which as a matter of best practice of the Registrar of Companies or the Registry of the Supreme Court would have or should have been disclosed on the public file, the Causes Book or the Judgment Book, as the case may be, but for whatever reason have not actually been filed or registered or are not disclosed or which, notwithstanding filing or registration, at the date and time the search is concluded are for whatever reason not disclosed or do not appear on the public file, the Causes Book or Judgment Book;


3.13.2	details of matters which should have been lodged for filing or registration at the Registrar of Companies or the Registry of the Supreme Court but have not been lodged for filing or registration at the date the search is concluded;


3.13.3	whether an application to the Supreme Court for a winding-up petition or for the appointment of a receiver or manager has been prepared but not yet been

\9089893.2

presented or has been presented but does not appear in the Causes Book at the date and time the search is concluded;


3.13.4	whether any arbitration or administrative proceedings are pending or whether any proceedings are threatened, or whether any arbitrator has been appointed; or


3.13.5	whether a receiver or manager has been appointed privately pursuant to the provisions of a debenture or other security, unless notice of the fact has been entered in the Register of Charges in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Xxx 0000.

Furthermore, in the absence of a statutorily defined system for the registration of charges created by companies incorporated outside Bermuda (overseas companies) over their assets located in Bermuda, it is not possible to determine definitively from searches of the Register of Charges maintained by the Registrar of Companies in respect of such overseas companies what charges have been registered over any of their assets located in Bermuda or whether any one charge has priority over any other charge over such assets.


3.14	In order to issue this opinion we have carried out the Company Search and have not enquired as to whether there has been any change since the date and time of such search.


3.15	In order to issue this opinion we have carried out the Litigation Search and have not enquired as to whether there has been any change since the date and time of such search.


3.16	In paragraph 2.1 above, the term “good standing” means that the Company has received a Certificate of Compliance from the Registrar of Companies.


4.	Disclosure

This opinion is addressed to you solely for your benefit and is neither to be transmitted to any other person (other than your legal advisors, accountants and auditors), nor relied upon by any other person or for any other purpose nor quoted or referred to in any public document nor filed with any governmental agency or person, without our prior written consent, except as may be required by law or regulatory authority. Further, this opinion speaks as of its date and is strictly limited to the matters stated herein and we assume no obligation to review or update this opinion if applicable law or the existing facts or circumstances should change.

This opinion is governed by and is to be construed in accordance with Bermuda law. It is given on the basis that it will not give rise to any legal proceedings with respect thereto in any jurisdiction other than Bermuda.

Yours faithfully
