-3-

the terms thereof, the Alternate Base Rate shall be determined without regard to clause (a)(ii) of the first sentence of this definition, as appropriate, until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Revolving Loans made on the Closing Date or on either of the two Business Days immediately following the Closing Date may only consist of Alternate Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars. Any Loans denominated in Dollars shall be made by each Lender at its Domestic Lending Office and any Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency shall be made by each Lender at its EURIBOR/LIBOR Lending Office.

(b) Revolving Loan Borrowings.

(i) Notice of Borrowing. The Borrower shall request a Revolving Loan borrowing by written notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed in writing which confirmation may be by fax) to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. on the same Business Day of the requested borrowing in the case of Alternate Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, and on the third Business Day prior to the date of the requested borrowing in the case of EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in

Each such request for borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) that a Revolving Loan is requested, (B) the date of the requested borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (C) the aggregate principal amount to be borrowed, and (D) whether the borrowing shall be comprised of Alternate Base Rate Loans, EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans or a combination thereof, the Currency therefor, and if EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans are requested, the Interest Period(s) therefor. A form of Notice of Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) is attached as Exhibit A. If the Borrower shall fail to specify in any such Notice of Borrowing (1) an applicable Interest Period in the case of a EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan, then such notice shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one month, (2) the type of Revolving Loan requested, then such notice shall be deemed to be a request for an Alternate Base Rate Loan hereunder or (3) the Currency of the Revolving Loan requested, then such notice shall be deemed to be a request by the Initial Borrower for an Alternate Base Rate Loan denominated in Dollars hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall give notice to each Lender promptly upon receipt of each Notice of Borrowing, the contents thereof and each such Lender’s share thereof.

(ii) Minimum Amounts. Each Revolving Loan shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof (or the remaining amount of the Committed Amount, if less).

(iii) Advances. Each Lender will make its Commitment Percentage of each Revolving Loan borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Borrower at the office of the Administrative Agent specified in Section 9.2, or at such other office as the Administrative Agent may designate in writing, upon reasonable advance notice by 1:00 P.M. on the date specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing, in the Currency of such Revolving Loan and in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the applicable Borrower by the Administrative Agent by crediting the account of the applicable Borrower on the books of such office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

(c) Repayment. The principal amount of all Revolving Loans shall be due and payable in full in the Currency of such Revolving Loan on the Commitment Termination Date.

(d) Interest. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.9, Revolving Loans shall bear interest as follows:

(i) Alternate Base Rate Loans. During such periods as any Revolving Loans shall be comprised of Alternate Base Rate Loans, each such Alternate Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate; and

-46-

(ii) EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans. During such periods as any Revolving Loans shall be comprised of EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans, each such Loan denominated in (a) any Currency (other than Euro) shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the sum of the applicable LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Percentage, and (b) Euro shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the sum of the applicable EURIBOR plus the Applicable Percentage.

Interest on Revolving Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.

(e) Revolving Notes. The Borrower’s obligation to pay each Lender’s Revolving Loans shall be evidenced by a revolving note made payable to such Lender in substantially the form of Exhibit B, if requested by such Lender (“Revolving Note”).

Section 2.2. Intentionally Omitted.

Section 2.3. Letter of Credit Subfacility.

(a) Issuance. Subject to Section 2.3(c) and (h) and the other terms and conditions hereof and of the LOC Documents, if any, and any other terms and conditions which the Issuing Lender may reasonably require, prior to the Extending Lender Maturity Date, the Issuing Lender shall issue, and the Lenders shall participate in, Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower from time to time upon request in a form acceptable to the Issuing Lender; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate amount of the LOC Obligations shall not at any time exceed the LOC Committed Amount (other than in connection with a reduction of the LOC Committed Amount pursuant to the definition thereof, but only if such excess has been cash collateralized in accordance with the terms hereof), (ii) the Advances Outstanding shall not at any time exceed the aggregate Committed Amount then in effect, (iii) the Advances Outstanding in Alternative Currencies shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sub Limit, (iv) all Letters of Credit shall be issued in Dollars or in an Alternative Currency (without limiting the provisions of Section 2.3(h), Letters of Credit issued in Dollars shall only be issued for the account of the Initial Borrower and Letters of Credit issued in Alternative Currencies shall be issued for the account of any Borrower) and (v) Letters of Credit shall be issued for any lawful corporate purposes and may be issued as standby letters of credit, and trade letters of credit. Except for the Existing Letters of Credit or as otherwise expressly agreed upon by all the Lenders, no Letter of Credit shall have an original expiry date more than twelve (12) months from the date of issuance; provided, however, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and subject to the other terms and conditions to the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder, the expiry dates of Letters of Credit may be extended annually or periodically from time to time at the request of the applicable Borrower or by operation of the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit to a date not more than twelve (12) months from the then current date of expiry; provided, further, that no Letter of Credit, as originally issued or as extended, shall have an expiry date extending beyond the date that is one month prior to the Extending Lender Maturity Date (except to the extent it is cash collateralized as provided herein). Furthermore, unless

-47-

otherwise agreed to by the Issuing Lender, no trade Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date more than 180 days from the date of issuance. With respect to any Letter of Credit outstanding on March 12, 2010 and expiring after March 13, 2010, the Borrower shall deposit cash collateral with the Issuing Lender on March 13, 2010 in an amount equal to 103% of the stated and undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit and in the Currency in which such Letter of Credit was issued; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be obligated to cash collateralize such Letter of Credit to the extent that (w) the Extending Event has occurred, (x) an Event of Default is not in existence on March 13, 2010 and (y) the Advances Outstanding of the Extending Lenders would not exceed the Committed Amount on March 13, 2010, after giving effect to the termination of the Commitments of the Non-Extending Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender, Letters of Credit may have an expiry date extending beyond the date that is one month prior to March 31, 2012 if the Extending Event has occurred provided that the Borrower deposits cash collateral (30 days prior to March 31, 2012) with the Issuing Lender in an amount equal to 103% of the stated and undrawn amount of the Letter of Credit and in the Currency in which such Letter of Credit was issued. Each Letter of Credit shall comply with the related LOC Documents. The issuance date and expiry date of each Letter of Credit shall be a Business Day. Except for the Existing Letters of Credit, any Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall be in a minimum original face amount of $25,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, the Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if a default of any Lender’s obligations to fund under this Section 2.3 exists or any Lender is at such time an Impacted Lender, unless the Issuing Lender has entered into cash collateral arrangements or other arrangements with the applicable Borrower or any other party which are satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in its sole and absolute discretion to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s risk with respect to such Impacted Lender. Any requirement imposed on the applicable Borrower to provide cash collateral hereunder shall be expressly permitted, notwithstanding any negative pledge or other restriction elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Credit Document.

(b) Notice and Reports. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Issuing Lender and the applicable Borrower, the request for the issuance of a standby Letter of Credit shall be submitted to the Issuing Lender at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance, and the request for the issuance of a trade Letter of Credit shall be submitted to the Issuing Lender at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance. The Issuing Lender will on the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit and promptly upon request provide to the Administrative Agent a detailed report specifying the Letters of Credit which are then issued and outstanding and any activity with respect thereto which may have occurred since the date of any prior report, and including therein, among other things, the account party, the beneficiary, the face amount, expiry date as well as any payments or expirations which may have occurred. The Issuing Lender will further provide to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request copies of the Letters of Credit. The Issuing Lender will provide to the Administrative Agent, and any

-48-

requesting Lender, promptly upon request a summary report of the nature and extent of LOC Obligations then outstanding.

(c) Participations. Each Lender (other than the Issuing Lender of such Letter of Credit), upon issuance of any Letter of Credit (or upon such Person becoming a Lender hereunder), shall be deemed to have purchased without recourse a risk participation from the Issuing Lender in such Letter of Credit and the obligations arising thereunder and any collateral relating thereto, in each case in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the obligations under such Letter of Credit and shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and be obligated to pay to the Issuing Lender therefor and discharge when due, its Commitment Percentage of the obligations arising under such Letter of Credit; provided, however, that if (1) the Extending Event has occurred and (2) such Letter of Credit has been cash collateralized if required under subsection (a) of this Section 2.3 above, then on March 13, 2010 (i) such risk participations of the Non-Extending Lenders in outstanding Letters of Credit shall terminate and (ii) the Extending Lenders shall be deemed to have purchased without recourse such risk participations in such outstanding Letters of Credit (so that they hold all of the risk participations in all outstanding Letters of Credit in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages). Without limiting the scope and nature of each Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit, to the extent that the Issuing Lender has not been reimbursed as required hereunder or under any LOC Document, each such Lender shall pay to the Issuing Lender its Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed drawing in the Currency of such unreimbursed drawing and in same day funds on the day of notification by the Issuing Lender of an unreimbursed drawing pursuant to the provisions of subsection (d) below (for the avoidance of doubt, the Non-Extending Lenders shall not have any such obligation with respect to any Letter of Credit issued (1) on or after March 13, 2010 or (2) prior to March 13, 2010 if the Extending Lenders are required pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence to purchase the risk participations of the Non-Extending Lenders in such Letter of Credit). The obligation of each Lender to so reimburse the Issuing Lender shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence of a Default, an Event of Default or any other occurrence or event. Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as hereinafter provided.

(d) Reimbursement. In the event of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Initial Borrower and the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Lender on the day of drawing under any Letter of Credit (either with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan obtained hereunder or otherwise) in the Currency of such drawing and in same day funds as provided herein or in the LOC Documents. If the Borrower shall fail to reimburse the Issuing Lender as provided herein, the unreimbursed amount of such drawing shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate applicable to the Currency of such drawing plus 2%. Unless the Borrower shall immediately notify the Issuing Lender and the

-49-

Administrative Agent of its intent to otherwise reimburse the Issuing Lender, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan in the Currency and the amount of the drawing as provided in subsection (e) below, the proceeds of which will be used to satisfy the reimbursement obligations. The Borrower’s reimbursement obligations hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under all circumstances irrespective of any rights of set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment the Borrower may claim or have against the Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit drawn upon or any other Person, including without limitation any defense based on any failure of the Borrower to receive consideration or the legality, validity, regularity or unenforceability of the Letter of Credit. The Issuing Lender will promptly notify the other Lenders of the Currency and amount of any unreimbursed drawing and each Lender shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender, in such Currency and in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such unreimbursed drawing (for the avoidance of doubt, if (i) the Extending Event has occurred, the Non-Extending Lenders shall not have any obligation to make such payment with respect to any unreimbursed drawing occurring on or after March 13, 2010 with respect to any Letter of Credit issued on or after March 13, 2010 and (ii) that if (1) the Extending Event has occurred and (2) such Letter of Credit has been cash collateralized if required under subsection (a) of this Section 2.3, then the Non-Extending Lenders shall not have any obligation to make such payment with respect to any unreimbursed drawing occurring on or after March 13, 2010 with respect to any Letter of Credit issued prior to March 13, 2010). Such payment shall be made on the day such notice is received by such Lender from the Issuing Lender if such notice is received at or before 2:00 P.M., otherwise such payment shall be made at or before 12:00 Noon on the Business Day next succeeding the day such notice is received. If such Lender does not pay such amount to the Issuing Lender in full upon such request, such Lender shall, on demand, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender interest on the unpaid amount during the period from the date of such drawing until such Lender pays such amount to the Issuing Lender in full at a rate per annum equal to (i), if such unpaid amount is owed in Dollars and paid within two Business Days of such date, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate or (ii) if such unpaid amount is owed in any Alternative Currency, the Alternate Base Rate. Each Lender’s obligation to make such payment to the Issuing Lender, and the right of the Issuing Lender to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional, shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever and without regard to the termination of this Credit Agreement or the Commitments hereunder, the existence of a Default or Event of Default or the acceleration of the Credit Party Obligations hereunder and shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Repayment with Revolving Loans. On any day on which the Borrower shall have requested, or been deemed to have requested, a Revolving Loan to reimburse a drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Lenders that a Revolving Loan has been requested or deemed requested in connection

-50-

with a drawing under a Letter of Credit, in which case a Revolving Loan borrowing shall be immediately made comprised entirely of Revolving Loans in the Currency of such drawing and bearing interest at the Alternate Base Rate applicable to the Currency of such drawing (each such borrowing, a “Mandatory LOC Borrowing”) pro rata based on each Lender’s respective Commitment Percentage (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 7.2) and the proceeds thereof shall be paid directly to the Issuing Lender for application to the respective LOC Obligations. Each Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make such Revolving Loans immediately upon any such request or deemed request on account of each Mandatory LOC Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the same such date (or, in the case of Mandatory LOC Borrowings in Alternative Currency, on the next Business Day) notwithstanding that (i) the amount of Mandatory LOC Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for borrowings of Revolving Loans otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 3.2 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) failure for any such request or deemed request for Revolving Loan to be made by the time otherwise required in Section 2.1(b), (v) the date of such Mandatory LOC Borrowing, or (vi) any reduction in the Committed Amount after any such Letter of Credit may have been drawn upon. In the event that any Mandatory LOC Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code with respect to the Borrower), then each such Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith fund (as of the date the Mandatory LOC Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) its Participation Interests in the outstanding LOC Obligations; provided, further, that in the event any Lender shall fail to fund its Participation Interest on the day the Mandatory LOC Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, then the amount of such Lender’s unfunded Participation Interest therein shall bear interest payable by such Lender to the Issuing Lender upon demand, at the rate equal to (i), if such unfunded Participation Interest is owed in Dollars and paid within two Business Days of such date, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate or (ii) if such unfunded Participation Interest is owed in any Alternative Currency, the Alternate Base Rate.

(f) Modification, Extension. The issuance of any supplement, modification, amendment, renewal, or extension to any Letter of Credit shall, for purposes hereof, be treated in all respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit hereunder; provided that such supplement, modification, amendment, renewal or extension shall not cause the Borrower to pay an additional Fronting Fee on such Letter of Credit except for any Fronting Fees due with respect to any increase in the stated amount of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Letter of Credit Governing Law. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Lender and the Initial Borrower, when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules

-51-

of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance, shall apply to each trade Letter of Credit.

(h) Designation of Subsidiaries as Account Parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Credit Agreement, including without limitation Section 2.3(a), a Letter of Credit issued hereunder may contain a statement to the effect that such Letter of Credit is issued for the account of a Subsidiary of the Initial Borrower; provided that, notwithstanding such statement, the Initial Borrower shall be the actual account party for all purposes of this Credit Agreement for such Letter of Credit and such statement shall not affect the Initial Borrower’s reimbursement obligations hereunder with respect to such Letter of Credit. In no event shall a Letter of Credit be issued for the account of an SPE Subsidiary in connection with a Securitization Transaction or for the account of a Bank Subsidiary. Nothing in this Section 2.3(h) shall be construed to require the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit for the account of a Subsidiary of the Initial Borrower where the Subsidiary is the actual account party.

(i) Existing Letters of Credit. The letters of credit previously issued by Bank of America, N.A. and identified on Schedule 2.3(i) (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender pursuant to the Credit Agreement and shall be expressly subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Section 2.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Existing Letters of Credit, the Initial Borrower shall be deemed to be the account party for all purposes of this Credit Agreement. The Letter of Credit Fee shall be payable with respect to the Existing Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.5(b) for the period commencing on the date of this Credit Agreement to the expiry date of the applicable Existing Letters of Credit.

Section 2.4. Swingline Loan Subfacility.

(a) Swingline Commitment. Prior to the Extending Lender Maturity Date, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender, in its individual capacity, agrees to make certain revolving credit loans to the Initial Borrower (each a “Swingline Loan” and, collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) for the purposes hereinafter set forth; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Swingline Committed Amount, and (ii) the sum of the Advances Outstanding shall not exceed the Committed Amount. Swingline Loans hereunder may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof. Swingline Loans shall be made only in Dollars.

(b) Swingline Loan Borrowings.

-52-

(i) Notice of Borrowing and Disbursement. The Swingline Lender will make Swingline Loans available to the Initial Borrower on any Business Day upon delivery of a Notice of Swingline Borrowing by the Initial Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 P.M. on such Business Day. A form of Notice of Swingline Borrowing (a “Notice of Swingline Borrowing”) is attached as Exhibit E. Swingline Loan borrowings hereunder shall be made in minimum amounts of $100,000 and in integral amounts of $100,000 in excess thereof.

(ii) Repayment of Swingline Loans. Each Swingline Loan borrowing shall be due and payable upon the earlier of (a) thirty (30) days after the Swingline Loan advance and (b) the Extending Lender Maturity Date. In addition, any Swingline Loan borrowing outstanding on March 13, 2010 shall be due and payable on March 12, 2010 and no new Swingline Loans shall be made on March 12, 2010 or March 13, 2010. The Swingline Lender may, at any time, in its sole discretion, by written notice to the Initial Borrower and the Administrative Agent, demand repayment of its Swingline Loans by way of a Revolving Loan borrowing, in which case the Initial Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Loan borrowing denominated in Dollars comprised entirely of Alternate Base Rate Loans in the amount of such Swingline Loans; provided, however that, in the following circumstances, any such demand shall also be deemed to have been given one Business Day prior to each of (A) Xxxxx 00, 0000, (X) the Extending Lender Maturity Date, (C) the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 7.1(f), (D) acceleration of the Credit Party Obligations hereunder, whether on account of an Event of Default described in Section 7.1(f) or any other Event of Default, and (E) the exercise of remedies in accordance with the provisions of Section 7.2 hereof (each such Revolving Loan borrowing made on account of any such deemed request therefor as provided herein being hereinafter referred to as “Mandatory Swingline Borrowing”). Each Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make such Revolving Loans promptly upon any such request or deemed request on account of each Mandatory Swingline Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the same such date notwithstanding (1) the amount of Mandatory Swingline Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for borrowings of Revolving Loans otherwise required hereunder, (2) whether any conditions specified in Section 3.2 are then satisfied, (3) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (4) failure of any such request or deemed request for Revolving Loans to be made by the time otherwise required in Section 2.1(b)(i), (5) the date of such Mandatory Swingline Borrowing, or (6) any reduction in the Committed Amount or termination of the Commitments immediately prior to such Mandatory Swingline Borrowing or contemporaneously therewith. In the event that any Mandatory Swingline Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code), then each Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Swingline Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Initial Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender such participations in the outstanding Swingline

-53-

Loans as shall be necessary to cause each such Lender to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon its respective Commitment Percentage (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 7.2); provided that (x) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date as of which the respective participation is purchased, and (y) at the time any purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Lender shall be required to pay to the Swingline Lender interest on the principal amount of such participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Swingline Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate equal to, if paid within two Business Days of the date of the Mandatory Swingline Borrowing, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and thereafter at a rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate.

(c) Interest on Swingline Loans. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.9(b), Swingline Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus the Applicable Percentage. Interest on Swingline Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.

Section 2.5. Fees.

(a) Commitment Fee. In consideration of the Commitment, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders based on their respective Commitments, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) in an amount equal to the Applicable Percentage per annum on the average daily unused amount of the Committed Amount during the calendar quarter for which such fee is payable. For purposes of computation of the Commitment Fee, LOC Obligations shall be considered usage, but Swingline Loans shall not be considered usage, of the Committed Amount.

(b) Mandatory Reductions.

(i) Reduction Event Proceeds Stepdowns. The Committed Amount shall be reduced on each date that, without duplication: (1) Collateral Proceeds are received after December 23, 2008, by an amount equal to 75% of such Collateral Proceeds; or (2) cash proceeds from any Debt Issuance are received after December 23, 2008, by an amount equal to 75% of such proceeds (such proceeds referred to in clauses (1) and (2) are referred to collectively as, the “Reduction Event Proceeds”); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committed Amount shall only be reduced pursuant to clauses (1) and (2) above in increments of $20,000,000 (or such lesser amount that is equal to the then Committed Amount), so that the Committed Amount shall not be reduced until the aggregate amount of all of the Reduction Event Proceeds required to be applied to reduce the Committed Amount pursuant to clauses (1) and (2) above equals or exceeds $20,000,000 (or such lesser amount that is equal to the then Committed Amount) and, after such reduction, the Committed Amount would not be reduced pursuant to this Section 2.6(b)(i) (except as provided in the last two sentences of this paragraph) again until the aggregate amount of all Reduction Event Proceeds required to be applied to reduce the Committed Amount pursuant to clauses (1) and (2) above (and not previously applied to reduce the Committed Amount) equals or exceeds $20,000,000 (or such lesser amount that is equal to the then Committed Amount). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the time that any payments required to be made in connection with any reduction of the Committed Amount pursuant to Sections 2.6(b)(ii)(a) or (c) below (“Mandatory Reduction Payment Date”), the Borrower shall be entitled to apply any balance of previously unapplied Reduction Event Proceeds that are

-56-

less than $20,000,000 to reduce the Committed Amount pursuant to this Section (such previously unapplied Reduction Event Proceeds will, for clarity, be allocated between the Committed Amount of Extending Lenders and Non-Extending Lenders on the same basis as would apply when Reduction Event Proceeds exceed $20,000,000). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, on February 24, 2010, the Borrower shall apply any balance of previously unapplied Reduction Event Proceeds (rounded down to the nearest million) as of February 22, 2010 (including if the aggregate amount of such previously unapplied amounts is less than $20,000,0000) to reduce the Committed Amount.

(ii) Other Stepdowns.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Committed Amount of the Non-Extending Lenders (to the extent not reduced to the following amount prior to December 31, 2009 pursuant to Section 2.6(b)(i)) shall automatically be reduced without the act of any party to $94,859,813 on December 31, 2009 and to $0 on March 13, 2010.

(b) (1) The Committed Amount of the Extending Lenders shall be reduced (A) no later than the sixth Business Day following the date that the Borrower receives cash proceeds from any 2009 Equity Issuance, by an amount equal to 100% of such proceeds (net of customary and reasonable fees and expenses); provided, however, that no reduction shall occur pursuant to this clause (A) to the extent that an Extending Event shall have occurred on or prior to such sixth Business Day and (B) not later than one Business Day after the date that any Credit Party receives cash proceeds from any 2009-2012 Debt Issuance consummated on or prior to September 30, 2009, by an amount equal to 100% of such proceeds (net of customary and reasonable fees and expenses). (2) To the extent that the Committed Amount of the Extending Lenders is not reduced to the following amounts prior to July 31, 2009 and September 30, 2009, respectively, pursuant to the clause (1) of this Section 2.6(b)(ii)(b), the Committed Amount of the Extending Lenders shall, unless otherwise approved by all of the Extending Lenders, automatically be reduced without the act of any party (x) on July 31, 2009 to $678,037,383 and (y) on September 30, 2009 to $578,037,383, provided that if any secured 2009-2012 Debt Issuance is consummated on or prior to such date then such Committed Amount of the Extending Lenders shall be reduced to $478,037,383. (3) Not later than one Business Day after the date that any Credit Party receives cash proceeds from any 2009-2012 Debt Issuance consummated during the period commencing on November 1, 2009 and ending on November 30, 2009, (x) the Committed Amount of the Non-Extending Lenders shall be reduced by an amount equal to 75% of the aggregate principal amount of such 2009-2012 Debt Issuance on the date of issuance and (y) the Committed Amount of the Extending Lenders shall be reduced by an amount equal to 25% of the aggregate principal amount of such

-57-

2009-2012 Debt Issuance on the date of issuance; provided that if the amounts calculated pursuant to clause (x) exceed the Committed Amount of the Non-Extending Lenders, then such excess shall be used to reduce the Committed Amount of the Extending Lenders (which for avoidance of doubt shall be over and above the reduction contemplated in clause (y)). (4) Not later than one Business Day after the date that any Credit Party receives cash proceeds from any 2009-2012 Debt Issuance consummated on or after December 1, 2009, the Committed Amount of the Lenders shall be reduced by an amount equal to 100% of such proceeds, which Commitment reduction shall be pro rata among the Lenders (based on the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders at such time).

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Committed Amount of the Extending Lenders (to the extent not reduced to the following amounts prior to the following respective dates pursuant to Section 2.6(b)(i) and (ii) above) shall automatically be reduced, without the act of any party, on each date specified below to the amount specified opposite such date in the second column of the table:

-58-

(iii) For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that (1) the Advances Outstanding shall exceed the aggregate Committed Amount as a result of any reduction pursuant to Sections 2.6(b)(i) or Section 2.6(c), the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within three Business Days) pay or prepay the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans and (after all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans have been repaid) cash collateralize the LOC Obligations in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess in each case as provided in Section 2.7(b); (2) the Advances Outstanding of the Non-Extending Lenders shall exceed the aggregate Committed Amount of the Non-Extending Lenders as a result of any reduction pursuant to Section 2.6(b)(ii)(a), the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within three Business Days) pay or prepay the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans of the Non-Extending Lenders; (3) the Advances Outstanding of any Class of Lenders shall exceed the aggregate Committed Amount of such Class of Lenders as a result of any reduction pursuant to Section 2.6(b)(ii)(b), the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event on the same Business Day) pay or prepay the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans of such Class of Lenders; and (4) the Advances Outstanding of the Extending Lenders shall exceed the aggregate Committed Amount of the Extending Lenders as a result of any reduction pursuant to Sections 2.6(b)(ii)(c), the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within three Business Days) pay or prepay the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans of the Extending Lenders and (after all such Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans have been repaid) cash collateralize the LOC Obligations of the Extending Lenders in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess in each case as provided in Section 2.7(b).

(c) Commitment Termination Date. The Commitment, the Swingline Commitment and the LOC Commitment of any Class of Lenders shall automatically terminate (and any Advances Outstanding of such Class of Lenders shall be repaid in full) on the Commitment Termination Date for such Class of Lenders.

(d) Calculation Of Mandatory Reductions; Notice. In connection with any reduction of the Committed Amount pursuant to Section 2.6(b), the Borrower shall provide the Agent with written notice of such reduction as promptly as possible and, in any event, within three (3) Business Days of such reduction, which notice shall specify (i) the effective date of such reduction, (ii) the amount of such reduction, (iii) the source of the proceeds that are being applied to such reduction and (iv) the group of Lenders to

-59-

which such reduction applies (i.e. the Extending Lenders, the Non-Extending Lenders or all Lenders).

(e) Amendments to Schedule 2.1(a). On the date of any reduction in the Commitments of any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.6, Schedule 2.1(a) shall be deemed to be amended to reflect such reduction in the Committed Amount of such Lender and any change in the Commitment Percentage of such Lender and the Agent is authorized to record such reductions and changes in the Register

Section 2.7. Prepayments.

(a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right to prepay Loans in whole or in part from time to time; provided, however, that each partial prepayment of Revolving Loans shall be in a minimum principal amount of (except in connection with any prepayment made pursuant to Section 5.21) $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, and each partial prepayment of a Swingline Loan shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof. The Borrower shall give irrevocable notice of such prepayment in writing to the Administrative Agent (which shall notify the Lenders thereof as soon as practicable), which notice shall be at least: (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of prepayment in the case of EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, (ii) one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed date of prepayment of Alternate Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars, and (iii) four (4) Business Days prior to the proposed date of prepayment of Alternate Base Rate Loans and/or EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency. Amounts prepaid under this Section 2.7(a) shall be applied to the outstanding Loans as the Borrower may elect; provided, that each Lender shall receive its pro rata share of any such prepayment based on its Commitment Percentage. All prepayments under this Section 2.7(a) shall be subject to Section 2.17, but otherwise without premium or penalty. Interest on the principal amount prepaid shall be payable on the next occurring Interest Payment Date that would have occurred had such Loan not been prepaid or, at the request of the Administrative Agent, interest on the principal amount prepaid shall be due and payable on any date that a prepayment is made hereunder through the date of prepayment. Amounts prepaid on the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans may be reborrowed in accordance with the terms hereof.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) Committed Amount. If at any time after the Closing Date, the Advances Outstanding shall exceed the aggregate Committed Amount then in effect, the Borrower immediately shall prepay the Revolving Loans (subject to any timing requirements set forth in Section 2.6(b)(iii)) and Swingline Loans and (after all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans have been repaid) cash collateralize the LOC Obligations in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess and all such payments shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the Lender’s Commitments; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment on account of (a)

-60-

Commitment reduction pursuant to Section 2.6(b)(ii)(a) shall be pro rata among the Non-Extending Lenders (based on the aggregate Commitments of the Non-Extending Lenders at such time), (b) any Commitment reduction pursuant to Section 2.6(b)(ii)(b) shall be pro rata among the applicable Class of Lenders (based on the aggregate Commitments of such Class of Lenders at such time), or (c) any Commitment reduction pursuant to Section 2.6(b)(ii)(c) shall be pro rata among the Extending Lenders (based on the aggregate Commitments of the Extending Lenders at such time). All amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.7(b)(i) shall be paid and applied as follows: (A) first to the payment of outstanding Swingline Loans, (B), second, to the payment of outstanding Revolving Loans in the Currency in which such loans are owed; and (C) third, to a cash collateral account in respect of LOC Obligations in the Currency in which such LOC Obligations were issued. All prepayments under this Section 2.7(b)(i) shall be subject to Section 2.17 and be accompanied by interest on the principal amount prepaid through the date of prepayment.

(ii) If at any time after the Closing Date, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency plus all outstanding LOC Obligations denominated in any Alternative Currency shall exceed 105% of the aggregate Alternative Currency Sub-Limit, the Borrower immediately shall prepay such Alternative Currency Revolving Loans and (after all such Revolving Loans have been repaid) cash collateralize such LOC Obligations in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. All amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Section 2.7(b)(ii) shall be paid and applied as follows: (A) first, to the payment of outstanding Revolving Loans in the Currency in which such loans are owed; and (B) second, to a cash collateral account in respect of LOC Obligations in the Currency in which such LOC Obligations were issued. All prepayments under this Section 2.7(b)(ii) shall be subject to Section 2.17 and be accompanied by interest on the principal amount prepaid through the date of prepayment. For purposes of the calculations set forth in this Section 2.7(b)(ii), Revolving Loans and LOC Obligations denominated in Alternative Currencies shall be redenominated in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof.

Section 2.8. Minimum Principal Amounts.

All borrowings, payments and prepayments in respect of Revolving Loans shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that after giving effect thereto the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans comprising any borrowing shall be $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.

Section 2.9. Default Rate and Payment Dates.

(a) If (i) all or a portion of the principal amount of any EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto plus 2%, until the end of the Interest

-61-

Period applicable thereto and thereafter the unpaid portion of such Revolving Loan shall, if such Revolving Loan is not denominated in Dollars, automatically be redenominated in Dollars on the last day of such Interest Period in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof on the date of such redenomination and such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is equal to the Alternate Base Rate applicable to Dollars plus 2% (the “ABR Default Rate”), (ii) all or a portion of the principal amount of any Alternate Base Rate Loan shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is equal to the ABR Default Rate, (iii) if any interest payable on the principal amount of any Loan shall not be paid when due (after the applicable grace period), such overdue amount, if such Loan is not denominated in Dollars, shall automatically be redenominated in Dollars on the due date therefor in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof on the date of such redenomination and such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is equal to the ABR Default Rate, and (iv) if any fee or other amount shall not be paid when due, such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is equal to the ABR Default Rate, in each case noted above from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment).

(b) Upon the occurrence, and during the continuance, of any other Event of Default hereunder, the principal of and, to the extent permitted by law, interest on the Loans and any other amounts owing hereunder shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a per annum rate which is (A) in the case of principal, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto, plus 2%, or (B) in the case of interest, fees or other amounts, the Alternate Base Rate applicable to the Currency of such Loan plus 2% (after as well as before judgment). The Required Lenders shall have the right to revoke the imposition of any default interest imposed under this Section 2.9(b).

(c) Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided that interest accruing pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 2.9 shall be payable from time to time on demand.

Section 2.10. Conversion Options.

(a) The Borrower may, in the case of Revolving Loans elect from time to time to convert Alternate Base Rate Loans to EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least: (i) three (3) Business Days’ prior irrevocable written notice of such election in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars and (ii) at least four (4) Business Days’ prior irrevocable written notice of such election in the case of Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency. In addition, the Borrower may elect from time to time to convert EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans to Alternate Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice by 11:00 A.M. one Business Day prior to the proposed date of conversion. A form of Notice of Conversion is attached as Exhibit C (the “Notice of Conversion”). If the date upon which an Alternate Base Rate

-62-

Loan is to be converted to a EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan is not a Business Day, then such conversion shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day. All or any part of outstanding Alternate Base Rate Loans may be converted as provided herein; provided that (i) no Loan may be converted into a EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and (ii) partial conversions shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans may only be converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans on the last day of the applicable Interest Period. If the date upon which a EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan is to be converted to an Alternate Base Rate Loan is not a Business Day, then such conversion shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and during the period from such last day of an Interest Period to such succeeding Business Day such Loan shall bear interest as if it were an Alternate Base Rate Loan.

(b) Any EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving the Administrative Agent at least four (4) Business Days prior irrevocable notice of such election (or the Initial Borrower giving the Administrative Agent at least three (3) Business Days’ prior irrevocable written notice of such election in the case of EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans denominated in Dollars); provided, that no EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case such Loan shall be automatically converted to an Alternate Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Borrower shall fail to give timely notice of an election to continue any EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan, or the continuation of any EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan is not permitted hereunder, such EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan shall be automatically converted to an Alternate Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period with respect thereto.

Section 2.11. Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) Interest payable hereunder with respect to any Alternate Base Rate Loan based on the Prime Rate or any Alternative Currency borrowing denominated in Pounds Sterling shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual days elapsed. Subject to the foregoing, all fees, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Initial Borrower and the Lenders of each determination of EURIBOR and a LIBOR Rate on the Business Day of the determination thereof. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Alternate Base Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the Alternate Base Rate shall become effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Initial Borrower and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change.

-63-

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Credit Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Initial Borrower, deliver to the Initial Borrower a statement showing the computations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate.

(c) It is the intent of the Lenders and the Credit Parties to conform to and contract in strict compliance with applicable usury law from time to time in effect. All agreements between the Lenders and the Credit Parties are hereby limited by the provisions of this paragraph which shall override and control all such agreements, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether written or oral. In no way, nor in any event or contingency (including but not limited to prepayment or acceleration of the maturity of any Loan), shall the interest taken, reserved, contracted for, charged, or received under this Credit Agreement, under the Notes or otherwise, exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permissible under Applicable Law. If, from any possible construction of this Credit Agreement or any other document, interest would otherwise be payable in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount, any such construction shall be subject to the provisions of this paragraph and such interest shall be automatically reduced to the maximum nonusurious amount permitted under Applicable Law, without the necessity of execution of any amendment or new document. If any Lender shall ever receive anything of value which is characterized as interest on the Loans under Applicable Law and which would, apart from this provision, be in excess of the maximum nonusurious amount, an amount equal to the amount which would have been excessive interest shall, without penalty, be applied to the reduction of the principal amount owing on the Loans and not to the payment of interest, or refunded to the Borrower or the other payor thereof if and to the extent such amount which would have been excessive exceeds such unpaid principal amount of the Loans. The right to demand payment of the Loans or any other amount required to be paid hereunder does not include the right to receive any interest which has not otherwise accrued on the date of such demand, and the Lenders do not intend to charge or receive any unearned interest in the event of such demand. All interest paid or agreed to be paid to the Lenders with respect to the Loans shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread throughout the full stated term (including any renewal or extension) of the Loans so that the amount of interest on account of such indebtedness does not exceed the maximum nonusurious amount permitted by Applicable Law.

Section 2.12. Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Allocation of Payments Before Event of Default. Each borrowing of Revolving Loans and any reduction of the Commitments shall be made pro rata according to the respective Commitment Percentages of the Lenders; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any Commitment reduction pursuant to Section 2.6(b)(ii)(a) shall be pro rata among the Non-Extending Lenders (based on the aggregate

-64-

Commitments of the Non-Extending Lenders at such time), (ii) any Commitment reduction pursuant to Section 2.6(b)(ii)(b) shall be pro rata among the applicable Class of Lenders (based on the aggregate Commitments of such Class of Lenders at such time) and (iii) any Commitment reduction pursuant to Section 2.6(b)(ii)(c) shall be pro rata among the Extending Lenders (based on the aggregate Commitments of the Extending Lenders at such time). Each payment under this Credit Agreement or any Note shall be applied, first, to any fees then due and owing by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.5, second, to interest then due and owing hereunder and under the Notes and, third, to principal then due and owing hereunder and under the Notes. Each payment on account of any fees pursuant to Section 2.5 shall be made pro rata in accordance with the respective amounts due and owing (except as to the Fronting Fees and the Issuing Lender Fees). Each optional prepayment on account of principal of the Loans shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.7(a); provided, that prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.15 shall be applied in accordance with such Section. Each mandatory prepayment on account of principal of the Loans shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.7(b). All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower on account of principal, interest and fees shall be made without defense, set-off or counterclaim (except as provided in Section 2.18(b)) and shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders at the Administrative Agent’s office specified on Section 9.2 in immediately available funds not later than 1:00 P.M. on the date when due. All amounts owing under this Credit Agreement are payable in Dollars; provided, however, that the principal of, and interest on, any Revolving Loan denominated in any Alternative Currency (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.9), breakage costs relating to, and participations in, and reimbursements of drawings under Letters of Credit denominated in, any Alternative Currency, shall only be payable in such Alternative Currency. In addition, the cash collateralization of outstanding Letters of Credit denominated in any Alternative Currency (when required under this Credit Agreement) shall be in such Alternative Currency. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders entitled thereto promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(b) Allocation of Payments After Exercise of Remedies. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Credit Agreement to the contrary, after the Commitments shall have been terminated and the Loans and all other amounts under the Credit Documents shall have become due and payable in accordance with the terms of Section 7.2 hereof, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account

-65-

of the Credit Party Obligations or any other amounts outstanding under any of the Credit Documents or in respect of the Collateral shall be paid over or delivered as follows:

FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees) of the Administrative Agent in connection with enforcing the rights of the Lenders under the Credit Documents and any protective advances made by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Collateral under or pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents;

SECOND, to payment of any fees owed to the Administrative Agent;

THIRD, to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees) of each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing its rights under the Credit Documents or otherwise with respect to the Credit Party Obligations owing to such Lender;

FOURTH, to the payment of all accrued fees and interest;

FIFTH, to the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and the payment or cash collateralization of the outstanding LOC Obligations;

SIXTH, to all other Credit Party Obligations and other obligations due and payable hereunder or otherwise and not repaid pursuant to clauses “FIRST” through “FIFTH” above; and

SEVENTH, to the payment of the surplus, if any, to whoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.

In carrying out the foregoing: (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to application to the next succeeding category; (ii) each of the Lenders shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share (based on the proportion of the then outstanding Loans and LOC Obligations held by such Lender) of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses ”THIRD,” “FOURTH,” “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above; and (iii) to the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “FIFTH” above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, such amounts shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account and applied (A) first, to reimburse the Issuing Lender from time to time for any drawings under such Letters of Credit, and (B) then, following the expiration of all Letters of Credit, to all other obligations of the types described in clauses “FIFTH” and “SIXTH” above in the manner provided in this Section 2.12(b).

Section 2.13. Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent.

(a) Except as provided in Section 2.13(d), unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by a Lender prior to the date a Loan is to be made by such Lender (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that such Lender does not

-66-

intend to make the proceeds of such Loan available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such proceeds available to the Administrative Agent on such date, and the Administrative Agent may in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall be able to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Initial Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a per annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrower at the applicable rate for the applicable borrowing pursuant to the Notice of Borrowing, and (ii) from a Lender at the Federal Funds Effective Rate with respect to Loans denominated in Dollars and at the Alternative Base Rate with respect to Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency.

(b) Except as provided in Section 2.13(d), unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower, prior to the date on which any payment is due from it hereunder (which notice shall be effective upon receipt) that the Borrower does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment when due, and the Administrative Agent may in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to) make available to each Lender on such payment date an amount equal to the portion of such assumed payment to which such Lender is entitled hereunder, and if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount made available to such Lender. If such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent on a date after the date such amount was made available to such Lender, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand interest on such amount in respect of each day from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a per annum rate equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate with respect to Loans denominated in Dollars and at the Alternative Base Rate with respect to Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency.

(c) A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to the Initial Borrower or any Lender with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.13 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(d) On the date of any borrowing of a Revolving Loan in any Alternative Currency, the Administrative Agent shall make available to the applicable Borrower the proceeds of such borrowing only upon actual receipt by the Administrative Agent from

-67-

each Lender of such Lender’s pro rata portion of such borrowing in such Alternative Currency. On the date that any payment of the principal of or interest on any Revolving Loan denominated in any Alternative Currency is due, the Administrative Agent shall make available to each Lender such Lender’s pro rata portion of such payment only upon actual receipt by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower of such payment.

Section 2.14. Inability to Determine Interest Rate.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Credit Agreement, if (a) the Administrative Agent shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining EURIBOR and/or LIBOR for any Currency for any Interest Period, or (b) the Required Lenders shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that EURIBOR and/or the LIBOR Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans that the Borrower has requested during such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give telephone notice of such determination, confirmed in writing, to the Initial Borrower, and the Lenders at least two Business Days prior to the first day of such Interest Period. Unless the Initial Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent upon receipt of such telephone notice that it wishes to rescind or modify the request regarding such EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans, any Loans that were requested to be made as EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans shall be made as Alternate Base Rate Loans in the applicable Currency and any Loans that were requested to be converted into or continued as EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans shall remain as or be converted into Alternate Base Rate Loans in the applicable Currency. Until any such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Loans shall be made as, continued as, or converted into, EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans for the Interest Periods so affected.

Section 2.15. Illegality.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Credit Agreement, if the adoption of or any change in any requirement of Applicable Law or in the interpretation or application thereof by the relevant Governmental Authority to any Lender shall make it unlawful for such Lender or its EURIBOR/LIBOR Lending Office to make or maintain EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans in any Currency as contemplated by this Credit Agreement or to obtain in the interbank eurodollar market through its EURIBOR/LIBOR Lending Office the funds with which to make such Loans, (a) such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Initial Borrower thereof, (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make or continue EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans in such Currency shall forthwith be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall give notice that the condition or situation which gave rise to the suspension shall no longer exist, and (c) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans, if any, shall be converted on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law as Alternate Base Rate Loans. The Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay any Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for

-68-

actual and direct costs (but not including anticipated profits) reasonably incurred by such Lender in making any repayment in accordance with this Section 2.15 including, but not limited to, any interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.15 submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Initial Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its EURIBOR/LIBOR Lending Office) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which may otherwise be payable pursuant to this Section 2.15; provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender to be material.

Section 2.16. Requirements of Law.

(a) If the adoption of or any change in any requirement of Applicable Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof:

(i) shall subject such Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Letter of Credit, any participation therein or any application relating thereto, any EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender);

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of EURIBOR or the LIBOR Rate hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans or the Letters of Credit or the participations therein or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder or under any Note, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable which such Lender reasonably deems to be material as determined by such Lender with respect to its EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans or Letters of Credit.

(b) Without prejudice to paragraph (a) (but without double-counting), if and so long as any Lender is required by (i) the Bank of England or any other monetary or other authority of the United Kingdom or (ii) the European Central Bank to make special deposits, to maintain reserve asset ratios or to pay fees, in each case in respect of such

-69-

Lender’s EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loans, such Lender may require the Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on each of such Loans, additional interest on such Loan at a rate per annum equal to the Mandatory Cost Rate.

(c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.16 submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Initial Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its Domestic Lending Office or EURIBOR/LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which might otherwise be payable pursuant to this paragraph of this Section 2.16; provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition on such Lender of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender to be material.

(d) If any Lender shall have reasonably determined that the adoption of or any change in any requirement of Applicable Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount as shall be certified by such Lender as being required to compensate it for such reduction. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable under this Section 2.16 submitted by a Lender (which certificate shall include a description of the basis for the computation), through the Administrative Agent, to the Initial Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) The agreements in this Section 2.16 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.17. Indemnity.

The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold such Lender harmless from any funding loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) the failure by the Borrower to pay the principal amount of or interest on any Loan by such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, (b) the failure of the Borrower to accept a borrowing after the Borrower has given a notice in accordance with the terms hereof, (c) the failure of the Borrower to make any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice in accordance with the terms hereof, and/or (d) the making by the Borrower of a prepayment of a Loan, or the conversion thereof, on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto,

-70-

in each case including, but not limited to, any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain its Loans hereunder. In addition, the Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold each Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a result or consequence of (a) the payment of any LOC Obligation denominated in Alternative Currency on a date other than the due date thereof or (b) the payment of any Credit Party Obligation denominated in Alternative Currency in a different Currency. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.17 submitted by any Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Initial Borrower (which certificate must be delivered to the Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days following such default, prepayment or conversion) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The agreements in this Section 2.17 shall survive termination of this Credit Agreement and payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.18. Taxes.

(a) All payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under any Note will be, except as provided in Section 2.18(b), made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature now or hereafter imposed by any Governmental Authority or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to such payments (but excluding any tax imposed on or measured by the net income or profits of a Lender pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is organized or the jurisdiction in which the principal office or applicable lending office of such Lender is located or any subdivision thereof or therein) and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as “Taxes”). If any Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Borrower agrees to pay the full amount of such Taxes, and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under this Credit Agreement or under any Note, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes, will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Note. The Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent as soon as practicable after the date the payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to Applicable Law certified copies (to the extent reasonably available and required by law) of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, and reimburse such Lender upon its written request, for the amount of any Taxes so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender.

(b) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) agrees to deliver to the Initial Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date, or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Credit Agreement pursuant to Section 9.6(c) (unless the respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment or transfer), on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Lender, (i) if the Lender is a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, two

-71-

accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form X-0XXX, X-0XXX or W-8IMY (or successor forms) certifying such Lender’s entitlement to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Credit Agreement and under any Note, or (ii) if the Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, Internal Revenue Service Form X-0XXX, X-0XXX or W-8IMY as set forth in clause (i) above, or (A) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L (any such certificate, a “2.18 Certificate”), and (B) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or successor form) certifying such Lender’s entitlement to an exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Credit Agreement and under any Note. In addition, each Lender agrees that it will deliver upon the Initial Borrower’s request updated versions of the foregoing, as applicable, whenever the previous certification has become obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, together with such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Lender to a continued exemption from or reduction in United States withholding tax with respect to payments under this Credit Agreement and any Note. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.18(a), but subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, (1) the Borrower shall be entitled, to the extent it is required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold Taxes imposed by the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) from interest, fees or other amounts payable hereunder for the account of any Lender which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent that such Lender has not provided to the Initial Borrower U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms that establish a complete exemption from such deduction or withholding, and (2) the Borrower shall not be obligated pursuant to Section 2.18(a) hereof to gross-up payments to be made to a Lender in respect of Taxes imposed by the United States if (I) such Lender has not provided to the Initial Borrower the Internal Revenue Service Forms required to be provided to the Initial Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.18(b), or (II) in the case of a payment, other than interest, to a Lender described in clause (ii) above, to the extent that such Forms do not establish a complete exemption from withholding of such Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Section 2.18, the Borrower agrees to pay additional amounts and to indemnify each Lender in the manner set forth in Section 2.18(a) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any amounts deducted or withheld by it as described in the immediately preceding sentence as a result of any changes after the Closing Date in any Applicable Law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deducting or withholding of Taxes.

(c) Each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (including reasonable efforts to change its Domestic Lending Office or EURIBOR/LIBOR Lending Office, as the case may be) to avoid or to minimize any amounts which might otherwise be payable pursuant to this Section 2.18; provided, however, that such efforts shall not cause the imposition

-72-

on such Lender of any additional costs or legal or regulatory burdens deemed by such Lender in its sole discretion to be material.

(d) If the Borrower pays any additional amount pursuant to this Section 2.18 with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to obtain a refund of tax or credit against its tax liabilities on account of such payment; provided that such Lender shall have no obligation to use such reasonable efforts if either (i) it is in an excess foreign tax credit position, or (ii) it believes in good faith, in its sole discretion, that claiming a refund or credit would cause adverse tax consequences to it. In the event that such Lender receives such a refund or credit, such Lender shall pay to the Initial Borrower an amount that such Lender reasonably determines is equal to the net tax benefit obtained by such Lender as a result of such payment by the Borrower. In the event that no refund or credit is obtained with respect to the Borrower’s payments to such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.18, then such Lender shall upon request provide a certification that such Lender has not received a refund or credit for such payments. Nothing contained in this Section 2.18 shall require a Lender to disclose or detail the basis of its calculation of the amount of any tax benefit or any other amount or the basis of its determination referred to in the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 2.18 to the Borrower or any other party.

(e) The agreements in this Section 2.18 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.19. Indemnification; Nature of Issuing Lender’s Duties.

(a) In addition to its other obligations under Section 2.3, the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save the Issuing Lender and each Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that the Issuing Lender or such Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit, or (ii) the failure of the Issuing Lender to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions, herein called “Government Acts”).

(b) As between the Borrower and the Issuing Lender and each Lender, the Borrower shall assume all risks of the acts, omissions or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof. Neither the Issuing Lender nor any Lender shall be responsible: (i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of any Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, that may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) for failure of the beneficiary of

-73-

a Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon a Letter of Credit; (iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) for errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under a Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; and (vii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender or any Lender, including, without limitation, any Government Acts. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of the Issuing Lender’s rights or powers hereunder.

(c) In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender or any Lender, under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related certificates, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not put such Issuing Lender or such Lender under any resulting liability to the Borrower. It is the intention of the parties that this Credit Agreement shall be construed and applied to protect and indemnify the Issuing Lender and each Lender against any and all risks involved in the issuance of the Letters of Credit, all of which risks are hereby assumed by the Borrower, including, without limitation, any and all risks of the acts or omissions, whether rightful or wrongful, of any Government Authority. The Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall not, in any way, be liable for any failure by the Issuing Lender or anyone else to pay any drawing under any Letter of Credit as a result of any Government Acts or any other cause beyond the control of the Issuing Lender and the Lenders.

(d) Nothing in this Section 2.19 is intended to limit the reimbursement obligation of the Borrower contained in Section 2.3(d) hereof. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 2.19 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement. No act or omissions of any current or prior beneficiary of a Letter of Credit shall in any way affect or impair the rights of the Issuing Lender and the Lenders to enforce any right, power or benefit under this Credit Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.19, the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Issuing Lender or any Lenders in respect of any liability incurred by the Issuing Lender or such Lender arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender (including action not taken by the Issuing Lender or such Lender), as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or pursuant to arbitration.

Section 2.20. Extension of Commitment Termination Date.

Prior to March 14, 2008, Initial Borrower may extend the Commitment Termination Date (as defined in this Credit Agreement on March 14, 2008) to a date that is not later than twelve (12) months after the then-effective Commitment Termination Date, no more than one time, upon: (a) delivery of a Facility Extension Request in the form attached hereto as Exhibit M (the “Facility Extension Request”) to Administrative Agent; (b) payment to Administrative Agent for

-74-

the benefit of the Lenders of a facility extension fee equal to twenty basis points (0.20%) on the then-existing Committed Amount (i.e., 0.20% times the Committed Amount); and (c) payment by Borrower of all fees and expenses to Administrative Agent and the Lenders to the extent then due. Such extension shall be evidenced by delivery of written confirmation of the same by Administrative Agent to Initial Borrower; provided, that:

(i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(ii) the representations and warranties contained in this Credit Agreement shall be true and correct on and as of the Facility Extension Request as if made on and as of such date (or, if any such representation and warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, such representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such specific date).

Section 2.21. Replacement of Lenders.

If Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16 or Section 2.18, then Initial Borrower may within sixty (60) days thereafter designate another bank or financial institution which is acceptable to Agent in its reasonable discretion (such other bank or financial institution being called a “Replacement Lender”) to purchase the Loans of such Lender and such Lender’s rights hereunder, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Lender, for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans and all accrued but unpaid fees owed to such Lender and any other amounts payable to such Lender under this Credit Agreement (all such amounts shall only be payable in the Currency in which they are owed under this Agreement), and to assume all the obligations of such Lender hereunder, and, upon such purchase and assumption (pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement), such Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights hereunder (other than rights with respect to indemnities and similar rights applicable to such Lender prior to the date of such purchase and assumption) and shall be relieved from all obligations to Borrower hereunder, and the Replacement Lender shall succeed to the rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder. Nothing in this Section 2.21 shall be deemed to relieve Borrower of its obligation to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16 or Section 2.18.

Section 2.22. Additional Limitations on CSF as Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (but subject to Section 2.3(h)), in no event shall any Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit be issued to, or for the account of, CSF if the Guaranty Agreement is not in full force and effect with respect to the Initial Borrower and CSI.

Section 2.23. Several Liability of the Borrower. Without limiting the obligations of the Initial Borrower or CSI as a guarantor under the Guaranty Agreement or of CSF as a Guarantor under the Guaranty in Article X hereof, each Borrower shall be severally (and not jointly) liable for any and all of the Revolving Loans made directly to it as a Borrower, and Letters of Credit issued for the actual account of it as a Borrower.

-75-

Section 2.24. Currency Conversion of Loans. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.9, in no event shall the Currency in which any outstanding Alternate Base Rate Loan or EURIBOR/LIBOR Rate Loan is denominated be changed or converted into another Currency (including, without limitation, if any such Loan is converted to an Alternate Base Rate Loan or LIBOR Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.10).

Section 2.25. Additional Repayments of Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article II, in no event shall: (i) the Advances Outstanding of any Class of Lenders exceed the aggregate Committed Amount of such Class of Lenders then in effect, (ii) the Advances Outstanding of any Lender exceed the aggregate Commitment of such Lender, (iii) with regard to any Class of Lenders, the sum of such Class of Lenders’ share of outstanding Revolving Loans plus such Class of Lenders’ Commitment Percentage of outstanding Swingline Loans plus such Class of Lenders’ Commitment Percentage of LOC Obligations exceed such Class of Lenders’ Commitment Percentage of the aggregate Committed Amount and (iv) with regard to any Lender individually, the sum of such Lender’s share of outstanding Revolving Loans plus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of outstanding Swingline Loans plus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of LOC Obligations exceed such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the aggregate Committed Amount. On the date of any reduction in the Committed Amount of any Class of Lenders pursuant to Section 2.6 prior to the date on which the Commitments of the Non-Extending Lenders have been terminated and the Credit Party Obligations of the Non-Extending Lenders have been paid in full (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations), the Initial Borrower shall also pay or repay Advances Outstanding of such Class of Lenders in an amount required, after giving effect to such reduction, so that the ratio of the aggregate Advances Outstanding to Commitments of such Class of Lenders equals the ratio of the aggregate Advances Outstanding to Commitments of the other Class of Lenders

ARTICLE VIII
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 8.1. Appointment.

Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Wachovia as the Administrative Agent of such Lender under this Credit Agreement, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes Wachovia, as the Administrative Agent for such Lender, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Credit Agreement and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Credit Agreement, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Lender acknowledges that the Credit Parties may rely upon action taken by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders hereunder. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Credit Agreement or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

Section 8.2. Delegation of Duties.

The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Credit Agreement by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may appoint one of its affiliates as its agent to perform the functions of the Administrative Agent hereunder relating to the advancing of funds to the Borrower and distribution of funds to the Lenders and to perform such other related functions of the Administrative Agent hereunder as are reasonably incidental to such functions.

Section 8.3. Exculpatory Provisions.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact, Subsidiaries or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Credit Agreement (except for its or such Person’s own gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct), or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Credit Party or any officer thereof contained in this Credit Agreement or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received

-109-

by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Credit Agreement or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any of the Credit Documents or for any failure of any Credit Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance by any Credit Party of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Credit Agreement, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the any Credit Party.

Section 8.4. Reliance by Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless an executed Commitment Transfer Supplement has been filed with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.6(c) with respect to the Loans evidenced by such Note. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Credit Agreement unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under any of the Credit Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as may be required under this Credit Agreement, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Notes.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 3.1, each Lender that has signed this Credit Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender.

Section 8.5. Notice of Default.

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Credit Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to

-110-

such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders except to the extent that this Credit Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of the Required Lenders, or all of the Lenders, as the case may be.

Section 8.6. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.

Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representation or warranty to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Credit Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower or any other Credit Party and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Credit Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Credit Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any other Credit Party which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

Section 8.7. Indemnification.

The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such, the Issuing Lender in its capacity as such and the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Commitment Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 8.7, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Notes or any Reimbursement Obligation) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline

-111-

Lender in any way relating to or arising out of any Credit Document or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this Section 8.7 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and payment of the Notes, any Reimbursement Obligation and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 8.8. The Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity.

The Administrative Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. With respect to the Loans made or renewed by it and any Note issued to it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Credit Agreement as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

Section 8.9. Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Initial Borrower and the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents or if the Administrative Agent enters or becomes subject to receivership, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor administrative agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be approved by the Initial Borrower (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, whereupon such successor administrative agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor administrative agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Credit Agreement or any holders of the Notes. If no successor Administrative Agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent shall have the right, on behalf of the Lenders, to appoint a successor administrative agent, which successor shall be approved by the Initial Borrower (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, that, such successor administrative agent has minimum capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000. If no successor administrative agent has accepted appointment as Administrative

-112-

Agent within sixty (60) days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless become effective and the Lenders shall perform all duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor administrative agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the indemnification provisions of this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Credit Agreement.

Section 8.10. Other Agents.

None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Credit Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “documentation agent,” “co-agent,” “book manager,” “book runner,” “lead manager,” “arranger,” “lead arranger” or “co-arranger” shall have any right (except as expressly set forth herein), power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Credit Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Credit Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

Section 8.11. Collateral Matters.

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Collateral or any Lien on any Collateral (i) upon the termination of all of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full by Borrower of all Credit Party Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations), (ii) that is permitted to be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (iii) that is owned by a Guarantor that is permitted to be released under this Agreement or any other Credit Documents, or (iv) constituting property in which the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries owned no interest at the time the Agent’s Lien was granted nor at any time thereafter. Upon request by Agent or Borrower at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 8.11; provided, however, that (1) Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence such release on terms that, in Agent’s reasonable opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Credit Party Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of any Credit Party in respect of) all interests retained by any Credit Party, including, the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. Subject to the foregoing proviso, Agent further agrees that, in connection with

-113-

any transaction described in the foregoing clauses (i) — (iv) and as soon as is reasonably practicable after its receipt of a written request from the Initial Borrower specifying in reasonable detail the Collateral proposed to be released in connection with such transaction and the basis for such release, it will execute and deliver to the Initial Borrower (at the Initial Borrower’s sole cost and expense) such collateral release documentation as the Initial Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such release; provided that prior to, and immediately after giving effect to, such release no Default or Event of Default is in existence.

(b) The Agent shall not have any obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Credit Parties or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent pursuant to any of the Credit Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise provided herein.

(c) Anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Initial Borrower, the Agent and each Lender hereby agree that no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies thereunder may be exercised solely by the Agent, on behalf of the Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. Each Lender hereby, on and after the effective date of the HY Intercreditor Agreement, (i) agrees to be bound by the terms thereof and (ii) authorizes the Agent and the collateral agent thereunder to take any and all action required to be taken by such Person (or from refraining from taking any action) pursuant to the terms of the HY Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 8.12. Agency for Perfection. Agent hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent (and each Lender hereby accepts such appointment) for the purpose of perfecting the Agent’s Liens in assets which, in accordance with Article 8 or Article 9 of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request therefor shall deliver possession or control of such Collateral to Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions.

Section 8.13. Concerning the Collateral and Related Credit Documents. Each Lender authorizes and directs Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Each

-114-

Lender agrees that any action taken by Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents relating to the Collateral and the exercise by Agent of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

ARTICLE IX

The Required Lenders may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, (a) enter into with the Initial Borrower or any other Credit Party written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Credit Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Borrower or any other Credit Party hereunder or thereunder, or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, waiver, supplement, modification or release shall:

(i) reduce the amount or extend the scheduled date of maturity of any Loan or Note or any installment thereon, or reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder (except in connection with a waiver of interest at the increased post-default rate set forth in Section 2.9(b) which shall be determined by a vote of the Required Lenders) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Commitment (except for the extension of the Commitment Termination Date pursuant to Section 2.20), in each case without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; or

provided, further, that no amendment, waiver or consent affecting the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, or the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender under any Credit Document shall in any event be effective, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, or the Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action.

Any such waiver, any such amendment, supplement or modification and any such release shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Notes. In the case of any waiver, the Borrower, the other Credit Parties, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Loans and Notes and other Credit Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and

-116-

not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required for any amendment, modification or waiver of the provisions of Article VIII (other than the provisions of Section 8.9); provided, however, that the Administrative Agent will provide written notice to the Initial Borrower of any such amendment, modification or waiver. In addition, the Borrower and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to modify this Credit Agreement by unilaterally amending or supplementing Schedule 2.1(a) from time to time in the manner requested by the Initial Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender in order to reflect any assignments or transfers of the Loans as provided for hereunder; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy of any such modification to the Initial Borrower and each Lender.

Notwithstanding the fact that the consent of all the Lenders is required in certain circumstances as set forth above, (A) each Lender is entitled to vote as such Lender sees fit on any bankruptcy reorganization plan that affects the Loans, and each Lender acknowledges that the provisions of Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code supersede the unanimous consent provisions set forth herein, and (B) the Required Lenders may consent to allow a Credit Party to use cash collateral (excluding cash collateral securing LOC Obligations) in the context of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.

If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or release (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all affected Lenders, the consent of Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, at Initial Borrower’s request, Agent may within sixty (60) days thereafter designate another bank or financial institution which is acceptable to Agent in its reasonable discretion (such other bank or financial institution being called a “Replacement Lender”) to purchase the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender and such Non-Consenting Lender’s rights hereunder, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Non-Consenting Lender, for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Non-Consenting Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans and all accrued but unpaid fees owed to such Non-Consenting Lender and any other amounts payable to such Non-Consenting Lender under this Credit Agreement, and to assume all the obligations of such Non-Consenting Lender hereunder, and, upon such purchase and assumption (pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement), such Non-Consenting Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights hereunder (other than rights with respect to indemnities and similar rights applicable to such Non-Consenting Lender prior to the date of such purchase and assumption) and shall be relieved from all obligations to Borrower hereunder, and the Replacement Lender shall succeed to the rights and obligations of such Non-Consenting Lender hereunder.

Section 9.4. [Reserved].

Section 9.5. Payment of Expenses and Taxes; Indemnification.

The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and WCM for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation, printing and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, together with the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender and the Administrative Agent for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Credit Agreement, the Notes and any other Credit Document, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and to the Lenders (including reasonable allocated costs of in-house legal counsel of Administrative Agent), (c) on demand, to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Administrative Agent and WCM harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying stamp, excise and other similar taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, the Credit Documents and any such other documents, (d) defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and their respective Affiliates and their respective employees, agents, officers and directors, from and against any and all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature known or unknown, contingent or otherwise, arising out of, or in any way relating to the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of the Credit Parties, any Investment Loan Subsidiary or the Properties, or any orders, requirements or demands of Governmental Authorities related thereto, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s and consultant’s fees, investigation and laboratory fees, response costs, court costs and litigation expenses, except to the extent that any of the foregoing arise out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification therefor, and (e) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Administrative Agent and WCM and their Affiliates, employees, officers and directors harmless from and against, any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the use, or proposed use, of proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit, (f) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Administrative Agent and WCM and their Affiliates, employees, officers and directors harmless from and against, any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever to the extent arising from third party claims with respect to the execution, delivery,

-120-

enforcement, performance and administration of the Credit Documents and any such other documents; and (g) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Administrative Agent and WCM and their Affiliates, employees, officers and directors harmless from and against, any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever to the extent arising from or related to any Investment Loan Subsidiary (all of the foregoing, collectively, the “indemnified liabilities”); provided, however, that the Borrower shall not have any obligation hereunder to the Administrative Agent, WCM or any Lender with respect to indemnified liabilities arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, WCM or such Lender, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this Section 9.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans, Notes, LOC Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 9.6. Successors and Assigns; Participations; Purchasing Lenders.

(a) This Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, all future holders of the Notes and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender.

(b) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (each, a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender, or any other interest of such Lender hereunder, in each case in minimum amounts of $10,000,000 (or, if less, the entire amount of such Lender’s obligations, Commitments or other interests). In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement to the other parties to this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes under this Credit Agreement, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. No Lender shall transfer or grant any participation under which the Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note or any installment thereon in which such Participant is participating (except in connection with the extension of the Commitment Termination Date pursuant to Section 2.20), or reduce the stated rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of interest at the increased post-default rate) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the Participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that

-121-

an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without consent of a Participant if such Participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) release any material Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty or the Guaranty Agreement (except as otherwise expressly permitted by Sections 5.9, 5.13 or 5.14), (iii) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement or (iv) release all or substantially all of the Collateral. In the case of any such participation, the Participant shall not have any rights under this Credit Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the Participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation; provided, that, each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 9.5 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time; provided, further, that, no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such Sections than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred.

(c) Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with Applicable Law, at any time, sell or assign with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Initial Borrower (in each case, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), to one or more additional banks, insurance companies or other financial institutions or any funds investing in bank loans (each, a “Purchasing Lender”), all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement and the Notes in minimum amounts of $10,000,000 (or, if less, the entire amount of such Lender’s Commitment), pursuant to a Commitment Transfer Supplement, executed by such Purchasing Lender, such transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Initial Borrower, and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register; provided, however, that consent from the Issuing Lender shall not be required if the Purchasing Lender has a senior unsecured debt rating from any two of S&P, Xxxxx’x and Fitch equal to or higher than A- (or A3 with respect to Xxxxx’x); provided, further, that any sale or assignment to another Lender or to an Affiliate of an existing Lender shall not require the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Borrower. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the Transfer Effective Date specified in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (i) the Purchasing Lender thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Commitment as set forth therein, and (ii) the transferor Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement (and, in the case of a Commitment Transfer Supplement covering all or the remaining portion of a transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such transferor Lender shall cease to be a party

-122-

hereto). Such Commitment Transfer Supplement shall be deemed to amend this Credit Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Lender and the resulting adjustment of Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Lender of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Lender under this Credit Agreement and the Notes. On or prior to the Transfer Effective Date specified in such Commitment Transfer Supplement, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for the Notes delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement new Notes to the order of such Purchasing Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Commitment Transfer Supplement and, unless the transferor Lender has not retained a Commitment hereunder, new Notes to the order of the transferor Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall be dated the Closing Date and shall otherwise be in the form of the Notes replaced thereby. The Notes surrendered by the transferor Lender shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Initial Borrower marked “cancelled”.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.2 a copy of each Commitment Transfer Supplement delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loan recorded therein for all purposes of this Credit Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Initial Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of a duly executed Commitment Transfer Supplement, together with payment to the Administrative Agent by the transferor Lender or the Purchasing Lender (except for any assignment by a Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender), as agreed between them, of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 for each Purchasing Lender listed in such Commitment Transfer Supplement and the Notes, if any, subject to such Commitment Transfer Supplement, the Administrative Agent shall (i) accept such Commitment Transfer Supplement, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register, and (iii) unless Initial Borrower’s consent to such assignment is not required give prompt notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Initial Borrower.

(f) Each Credit Party authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchasing Lender (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its affiliates which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of a Credit Party pursuant to this Credit Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on

-123-

behalf of a Credit Party in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrower and its affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Credit Agreement, in each case subject to Section 9.15.

(g) At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 9.6 to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder and which is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for federal income tax purposes, the respective assignee Lender shall provide to the Initial Borrower and the Administrative Agent the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if applicable, a 2.18 Certificate) described in Section 2.18.

(h) Nothing herein shall prohibit any Lender from pledging or assigning any of its rights under this Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, any right to payment of principal and interest under any Note) to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Applicable Laws.

Section 9.7. Set-off.

(a) Each Lender agrees that if any Lender (a “benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to an Insolvency Event or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, or interest thereon, such benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrowers and each other Credit Party agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender’s Loans may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off), each Lender and its Affiliates shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower or the applicable Credit Party, any such notice being expressly waived by the Credit Parties to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, to setoff and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held by or owing to such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or

-124-

the account of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, or any part thereof in such amounts as such Lender may elect, against and on account of the Loans and other Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties to such Lender hereunder and claims of every nature and description of such Lender against the Borrower and the other Credit Parties, in any Currency, whether arising hereunder or, under any other Credit Document provided by such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement, as such Lender may elect, whether or not such Lender has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. The aforesaid right of set-off may be exercised by such Lender against the Borrower, any other Credit Party or against any trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver or execution, judgment or attachment creditor of the Borrower or any other Credit Party, or against anyone else claiming through or against the Borrower or any other Credit Party, or any such trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, receiver, or execution, judgment or attachment creditor, notwithstanding the fact that such right of set-off shall not have been exercised by such Lender prior to the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Initial Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

Section 9.8. Table of Contents and Section Headings.

The table of contents and the Section and subsection headings herein are intended for convenience only and shall be ignored in construing this Credit Agreement.

Section 9.9. Counterparts.

This Credit Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Credit Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Credit Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

Section 9.10. Effectiveness.

This Credit Agreement shall become effective on the date on which all of the parties have signed a copy hereof (whether the same or different copies) and shall have delivered the same to the Administrative Agent or, in the case of the Lenders, shall have given to the Administrative Agent written, telecopied or telex notice (actually received) at such office that the same has been signed and mailed to it.

Section 9.11. Severability.

-125-

Any provision of this Credit Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.12. Integration.

This Credit Agreement and the Notes, if any, represent the agreement of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the Notes, if any.

Section 9.13. Governing Law.

This Credit Agreement and the Notes and the rights and obligations of the parties under this Credit Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the law of the State of New York without regard to conflict of laws principles thereof (other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law).

Section 9.14. Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process.

Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be brought in the courts of the State of New York in New York County or of the United States for the Southern District of New York, and, by execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement, each Credit Party, the Administrative Agent and each Lender accepts, for itself and in connection with its Properties, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any final judgment rendered thereby in connection with this Credit Agreement from which no appeal has been taken or is available. Each Credit Party, the Administrative Agent and each Lender irrevocably agrees that all service of process in any such proceedings in any such court may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid and return receipt requested, to it at its address set forth in Section 9.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto, such service being hereby acknowledged by the Borrower and the other Credit Parties to be effective and binding service in every respect. Each Credit Party, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders irrevocably waives any objection, including, without limitation, any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in any such jurisdiction. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of any Lender to bring proceedings against the Borrower in the court of any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.15. Confidentiality.

-126-

Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons agents, advisors and other representatives to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the written consent of the Initial Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions in this Section 9.15, with respect to that Information which constitutes customer or consumer information with the meaning of the Xxxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Act (“GLBA”), 15 USC Section 6801 et seq. and which is marked conspicuously “Customer Information” (“Customer Information”), the parties acknowledge each Bank Subsidiary has a responsibility as a financial institution to keep Customer Information strictly confidential. Notwithstanding any provision in this Credit Agreement to the contrary, Customer Information shall be kept confidential during the term of this Credit Agreement and after its termination. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the Issuing Lender agree to use Customer Information only for the purposes for which it was shared to them by Initial Borrower and/or, as applicable, its Subsidiaries (including Unrestricted Subsidiaries), and not to disclose Customer Information or make it available to any Person for any reason whatsoever other than as required by law, subpoena, regulation or by any regulatory authority or as otherwise permitted under the GLBA or the implementing regulations. Any Person required

-127-

to maintain the confidentiality of Customer Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Customer Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 9.16. Acknowledgments.

The Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of each Credit Document;

(b) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Borrower or any other Credit Party arising out of or in connection with this Credit Agreement and the relationship between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

Section 9.17. Waivers of Jury Trial; Waiver of Consequential Damages.

THE BORROWER, THE OTHER CREDIT PARTIES, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN. The Borrower, the other Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree not to assert any claim against any other party to this Credit Agreement or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys, Affiliates or agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to any of the transactions contemplated herein.

Section 9.18. PATRIOT Act Notice.

Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any other party) hereby notifies each Credit Party that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56, signed into law October 26, 2001 (the “PATRIOT Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Credit Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

Section 9.19. Judgment Shortfall.

-128-

(a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one Currency into another Currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first Currency could be purchased with such other Currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b) The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a Currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the Currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum due in accordance with this Agreement to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss and if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased exceeds the sum due in accordance with this Agreement to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Applicable Creditor agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower. The obligations of the Borrower and Applicable Creditor contained in this Section 9.19 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

Section 9.20. Return of Notes.

In the event of (i) any termination in full by the Initial Borrower or CSF of all rights with respect to the Commitment in accordance Section 2.6(a)(i) or 2.6(a)(ii), as applicable or (ii) the delivery of any new Note in replacement of a previously issued Note, the applicable Lender shall return to the Borrower any Notes previously issued to it relating to such terminated Commitment or replaced Note, as applicable and such Notes shall be marked “cancelled.” In the event that any Lender does not return its applicable Note or Notes as described in this Section 9.20 within forty-five (45) days after the written request of Borrower, Borrower shall be entitled to receive a lost note affidavit from such Lender including customary indemnifications reasonably satisfactory to Borrower with respect to the applicable unreturned Note or Notes.

Section 9.21. Most Favored Provisions.

(a) If at any time any document or agreement with respect to any Debt regarding a 2009-2012 Debt Issuance contains any representation, event of default or informational, financial, affirmative or negative covenant (including any definition used in or related to such representations, covenants or events of default) that is either not provided for in any of the Credit Documents, or is more favorable to the holders or other creditors under such Debt regarding a 2009-2012 Debt Issuance or is more onerous to any Credit Party or any of their respective

-129-

Subsidiaries (each a “Most Favored Provision”) as compared to the representations, Events of Default or covenants (including any definition used in or related to such representations, Events of Default or covenants) binding on the Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries that are provided for in the Credit Documents, then, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Majority Extending Lenders, each such Most Favored Provision shall, subject to clause (b) below, be deemed to be automatically incorporated by reference into this Agreement, mutatis mutandis, as if set forth fully herein and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or therein, without any further action on the part of any of the Credit Parties or any other Person being required; provided, however, that (1) in the case any additional representation incorporated herein pursuant to this Section 9.21, such representation shall be deemed made only at such time as such representation is made under any documents or agreements relating to the 2009-2012 Debt Issuance, (2) in the event that any additional or more burdensome covenant is incorporated herein pursuant to this Section 9.21, the existence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder with respect to such incorporated covenant shall be determined according to the default notice and cure periods applicable thereto under any document or agreement with respect to any Debt regarding a 2009-2012 Debt Issuance (but with the Administrative Agent being entitled to provide any required notices in lieu of the applicable creditor or creditor representative under any document or agreement with respect to any Debt regarding a 2009-2012 Debt Issuance, with (subject to Section 7.1) the effect that no Default or Event of Default shall exist hereunder with respect to such covenant until the applicable cure period, if any, has lapsed under such document or agreement and (3) the provisions of this Section 9.21 shall not apply to (i) any interest, premium, fee or indemnification obligations, registration rights, trustee matters or securities law obligations, (ii) any mandatory prepayment events required under any document or agreement with respect to any Debt regarding a 2009-2012 Debt Issuance relating to Collateral Proceeds or (iii) any requirements relating to collateral that, if incorporated herein, would conflict with the requirements set forth in the HY Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) In addition, the Initial Borrower shall provide prompt written notice to the Administrative Agent following any 2009-2012 Debt Issuance of any provision that the Initial Borrower reasonably believes to constitute a Most Favored Provision, and each Credit Party agrees promptly to enter into such documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the provisions provided for in this Section 9.21. For the avoidance of doubt, if the document or agreement with respect to the applicable 2009-2012 Debt Issuance containing the Most Favored Provision is amended or modified to weaken or loosen such provision, such amendment or modification shall not in any way amend or modify such provision under this Credit Agreement (which provision in this Credit Agreement may only be amended in accordance with Section 9.1 hereof).

Section 9.22. HY Intercreditor Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, following the issuance of any secured 2009-2012 Debt Issuance, the exercise of any right or remedy by the Administrative Agent hereunder is subject to the provisions of the HY Intercreditor Agreement, as the same may be amended, supplemented, modified or replaced from time to time.

ARTICLE X

GUARANTY

Section 10.1. The Guaranty.

In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this Credit Agreement and to extend credit hereunder and thereunder and in recognition of the direct benefits to be received by the Guarantors from the Extensions of Credit hereunder, each of the Guarantors hereby agrees with the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to unconditionally and irrevocably jointly and severally guarantee the full and prompt payment when due, whether upon maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of any and all indebtedness of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. If any or all of the indebtedness becomes due and payable hereunder, each Guarantor unconditionally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, or their respective order, or demand, together with any and all reasonable expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in collecting any of the Credit Party Obligations. The word “indebtedness” is used in this Article X in its most comprehensive sense and includes any and all advances, debts, obligations and liabilities of the Borrower, including specifically all Credit Party Obligations, arising in connection with this Credit Agreement or the other Credit Documents, in each case, heretofore, now, or hereafter made, incurred or created, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined, whether or not such indebtedness is from time to time reduced, or extinguished and thereafter increased or incurred, whether the Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, whether or not recovery upon such indebtedness may be or hereafter become barred by any statute of limitations, and whether or not such indebtedness may be or hereafter become otherwise unenforceable. The guaranty set forth in this Article X is continuing guaranty and is a guaranty of payment and is not merely a guaranty of collection.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Credit Documents, to the extent the obligations of a Guarantor shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of each such Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is permissible under Applicable Law (whether federal or state and including, without limitation, the Bankruptcy Code).

Section 10.2. Bankruptcy.

Additionally, each of the Guarantors unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees jointly and severally the payment of any and all Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower to the Lenders whether or not due or payable by the Borrower upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 7.1(f), and unconditionally promises to pay such Credit Party Obligations to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, or order, on demand, in lawful money

-131-

of the United States. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that to the extent that the Borrower or a Guarantor shall make a payment or a transfer of an interest in any property to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, which payment or transfer or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, or otherwise is avoided, and/or required to be repaid to the Borrower or a Guarantor, the estate of the Borrower or a Guarantor, a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such avoidance or repayment, the obligation or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if said payment had not been made.

Section 10.3. Nature of Liability.

The liability of each Guarantor hereunder is exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower whether executed by any such Guarantor, any other guarantor or by any other party, and no Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by the Borrower or by any other party, or (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower, or (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking, or (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by the Borrower, or (e) any payment made to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Credit Party Obligations which the Administrative Agent or such Lenders repay the Borrower pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and each of the Guarantors waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding.

Section 10.4. Independent Obligation.

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Guarantor or the Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other Guarantor or the Borrower and whether or not any other Guarantor or the Borrower is joined in any such action or actions. Subject to the provisions of Section 10.2 regarding revival of Credit Party Obligations, the Guarantors’ joint and several liability with respect to the Credit Party Obligations shall not obligate them to pay any Credit Party Obligations which have already been fully satisfied.

Section 10.5. Authorization.

Each of the Guarantors authorizes the Administrative Agent and each Lender, without notice or demand (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived), and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to (a) renew, compromise, extend, increase, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise change the terms of the Credit Party Obligations or any part thereof in accordance with this Credit Agreement, including any increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon, (b) take and hold security from any Guarantor or any other party for the payment of this Guaranty or the

-132-

Credit Party Obligations and exchange, enforce waive and release any such security, (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in their discretion may determine, and (d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, Guarantors, the Borrower or other obligors.

Section 10.6. Reliance.

It is not necessary for the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to inquire into the capacity or powers of the Borrower or the officers, directors, members, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on its behalf, and any Credit Party Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

Section 10.7. Waiver.

(a) Each of the Guarantors waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to (i) proceed against the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, or (iii) pursue any other remedy in the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s power whatsoever. Each of the Guarantors waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party other than payment in full of the Credit Party Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations), including without limitation any defense based on or arising out of the disability of the Borrower, any other guarantor or any other party, or the unenforceability of the Credit Party Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower other than payment in full of the Credit Party Obligations. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any security held by the Administrative Agent by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales (to the extent such sale is permitted by Applicable Law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against the Borrower or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Credit Party Obligations have been paid in full and all of the Commitments have been terminated. Each of the Guarantors waives any defense arising out of any such election by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of the Guarantors against the Borrower or any other party or any security.

(b) Each of the Guarantors waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including without limitation notices of nonperformance, notice of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Credit Party Obligations. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Credit Party Obligations and the nature,

-133-

scope and extent of the risks which such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it regarding such circumstances or risks.

(c) Each of the Guarantors hereby agrees it will not exercise any rights of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise) to the claims of the Lenders against the Borrower or any other guarantor of the Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower owing to the Lenders (collectively, the “Other Parties”) and all contractual, statutory or common law rights of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity from any Other Party which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Guaranty until such time as the Credit Party Obligations shall have been paid in full and all of the Commitments have been terminated. Each of the Guarantors hereby further agrees not to exercise any right to enforce any other remedy which the Administrative Agent or the Lenders now have or may hereafter have against any Other Party, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to or for the benefit of the Lenders to secure payment of the Credit Party Obligations of the Borrower until such time as the Credit Party Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been paid in full and all of the Commitments have been terminated.

Section 10.8. Limitation on Enforcement.

The Lenders agree that this Guaranty may be enforced only by the action of the Administrative Agent acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders and that no Lender shall have any right individually to seek to enforce or to enforce this Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders under the terms of this Credit Agreement. The Lenders further agree that this Guaranty may not be enforced against any director, officer, employee or stockholder of the Guarantors.

Section 10.9. Confirmation of Payment.

The Administrative Agent and the Lenders will, upon request after payment of the indebtedness and obligations which are the subject of this Guaranty and termination of the Commitments relating thereto, confirm to the Borrower, the Guarantors or any other Person that such indebtedness and obligations have been paid and the Commitments relating thereto terminated, subject to the provisions of Section 10.2.

Section 10.10. Limitation of Guaranty of CSF. Notwithstanding anything to contrary contained herein, CSF shall not be deemed a Guarantor with respect to any and all indebtedness that it owes to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as a Borrower hereunder (but shall continue to be a Guarantor with respect to all other indebtedness).
