     WHEREAS, (i) each Amendment No. 1 Consenting Lender (as defined in Exhibit A to Amendment No. 1) has agreed, on the terms and conditions set forth in Amendment No. 1, to have the entire principal amount of its outstanding Term Loan, if any, converted into a like principal amount of a Term-1 Loan (as defined in Exhibit A to Amendment No. 1) effective as of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date (as defined in Amendment No. 1) and (ii) if not all Term Lenders are Amendment No. 1 Consenting Lenders, the Additional Term-1 Lender (as defined below) has agreed to make an additional Term-1 Loan in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of Term Loans held on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date by Lenders that are not Amendment No.1 Consenting Lenders, the proceeds of which shall be applied to repay in full the Term Loans of such non-consenting Lenders;

     WHEREAS, the undersigned (the “Additional Term-1 Lender”) is executing this joinder agreement (“Joinder Agreement”) in respect of its commitment to provide the Additional Term-1 Commitment under Amendment No. 1;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the Additional Term-1 Lender hereby agrees as follows:
