Such notice of prepayment shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and whether such prepayment is of Base Rate Loans, or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, or any combination thereof. Such notice shall not thereafter be revocable by the Company and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Bank thereof and of such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Company, the Company shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to each such date on the amount prepaid and any amounts required pursuant to Section 3.04.

(b) Mandatory Payments. If the Administrative Agent notifies the Company at any time that the Total Outstanding Amount of all Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies at such time exceeds an amount equal to 105% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Company shall prepay Loans in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such Total Outstanding Amount as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Alternative Currency Sublimit.

All other computations of interest and fees under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed, which results in more interest or fees, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year; provided that if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a different basis of computation is the market convention for a particular Alternative Currency, such different basis shall be used. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.

(b) The Administrative Agent will, with reasonable promptness, notify the Company and the Banks of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurocurrency Rate Loans upon determination of such interest rate; provided that any failure to do so shall not relieve the Company of any liability hereunder or provide the basis for any claim against the Administrative Agent. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Banks of any change in Bank of America’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

(c) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant hereto shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Banks in the absence of manifest error.

Any payment which is received by the Administrative Agent later than (i) 2:00 p.m. (New York City time), in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of payments in Alternative Currencies, shall be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States.

(b) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be; subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” herein.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Company prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks hereunder that the Company will not make such payment in full as and when required hereunder, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Company has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date in immediately available funds and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent the Company shall not have made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Bank, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate.

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank on the Closing Date or, with respect to each Borrowing after the Closing Date, prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of any proposed Borrowing, that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative Agent as and when required hereunder for the account of the Company the amount of that Bank’s Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that each Bank has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds on the Borrowing date and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company on such date a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Bank has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Bank and the Company severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Company to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Bank, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Company, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans or in the case of Alternative Currencies in accordance with such market practice, in each case, as applicable.

(b) The failure of any Bank to make any Loan on any date of borrowing shall not relieve any other Bank of any obligation hereunder to make a Loan on the date of such borrowing, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make the Loan to be made by such other Bank on the date of any borrowing.

SECTION 2.13. Sharing of Payments, Etc. Error! Bookmark not defined.

The Company agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank pursuant to this Section 2.13 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 10.11) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased pursuant to this Section 2.13 and will in each case notify the Banks following any such purchases or repayments.

(b) If any Bank shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.11(c), 2.12, 2.14(a) or 9.07, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank to satisfy such Bank’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Bank under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

If the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Company to or entered into by the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit are not consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control; provided that, to the extent the Issuing Bank so agrees in such other documentation, its liabilities and responsibilities in connection with a Letter of Credit may be governed thereby rather than by clause (ii) of subsection (e) above, but such agreement by the Issuing Bank may not directly or indirectly alter the rights and obligations of any other Bank under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.16. Currency Equivalents. The Administrative Agent shall determine the Spot Rates as of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating Dollar Amount of Borrowings and Total Outstanding Amounts denominated in Alternative Currencies. Such Spot Rates shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by the Company hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any currency (other than Dollars) for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Amount as so determined by the Administrative Agent.

(b) Wherever in this Agreement in connection with a Borrowing, conversion, continuation or prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, an amount, such as a required minimum or multiple amount, is expressed in Dollars, but such Borrowing or Eurocurrency Rate Loan is denominated in an Alternative Currency, such amount shall be the relevant Alternative Currency Equivalent of such Dollar amount (rounded to the nearest unit of such Alternative Currency, with 0.5 of a unit being rounded upward), as determined by the Administrative Agent.

(c) The Administrative Agent does not warrant, nor accept responsibility, nor shall the Administrative Agent have any liability with respect to the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “Eurocurrency Rate” or with respect to any comparable or successor rate thereto.

(i) the sum payable by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.01) have been made, the applicable Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made;

(ii) the Company or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall make such deductions; and

(i) it shall, no later than the Closing Date (or, in the case of a Bank which becomes a party hereto pursuant to Section 2.14 or 10.09 after the Closing Date, the date upon which the Bank becomes a party hereto) deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Company through the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete signed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or any successor thereto (“Form W-8ECI”), Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E or any successor thereto (“Form W-8BEN”) and, in the case of a Bank claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, a certificate (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Bank is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY or any successor thereto (“Form W-8IMY”), accompanied by Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Bank is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Bank are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Bank may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner, as appropriate;

(ii) if at any time the Bank makes any changes necessitating a new Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN or Form W-8IMY, it shall with reasonable promptness deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Company through the Administrative Agent in replacement for, or in addition to, the forms previously delivered by it hereunder the applicable documentation specified in clause (i) of this paragraph (f);

(iii) it shall, before or promptly after the occurrence of any event (including the passing of time but excluding any event mentioned in clause (ii) above) requiring a change in or renewal of the most recent Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN or Form W-8IMY previously delivered by such Bank, deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Company through the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete original signed copies of Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN or Form W-8IMY (together with the applicable supporting documentation specified in clause (i) of this paragraph (f)) in replacement for the forms previously delivered by the Bank; and

(iv) it shall, promptly upon the Company’s or the Administrative Agent’s reasonable request to that effect, deliver to the Company or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) such other forms or similar documentation as may be required from time to time by any applicable law, treaty, rule or regulation in order to establish such Bank’s tax status for withholding purposes; provided that it shall not be required to provide such forms or documentation if in such Bank’s reasonable judgment, providing such forms or documentation would subject the Bank to any material unreimbursed costs or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank.

(g) The Company will not be required to pay any additional amounts in respect of United States Taxes pursuant to subsection 3.01(d) to any Bank for the account of any Lending Office of such Bank:

(i) if the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Bank to comply with its obligations under subsection 3.01(f) in respect of such Lending Office;

(ii) if such Bank shall have delivered to the Company a Form W-8ECI in respect of such Lending Office pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of subsection 3.01(f), and such Bank shall not at any time be entitled to exemption from deduction or withholding of United States Taxes in respect of payments by the Company hereunder for the account of such Lending Office for any reason other than a change in United States law or regulations or in the official interpretation of such law or regulations by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law) after the date of delivery of such Form W-8ECI; or

(iii) if the Bank shall have delivered to the Company a Form W-8BEN or Form W-8IMY in respect of such Lending Office pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of subsection 3.01(f), and such Bank shall not at any time be entitled to exemption from deduction or withholding of United States Taxes in respect of payments by the Company hereunder for the account of such Lending Office for any reason other than a change in United States law or regulations or any applicable tax treaty or regulations or in the official interpretation of any such law, treaty or regulations by any governmental authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (whether or not having the force of law) after the date of delivery of such Form W-8BEN or Form W-8IMY.

(h) If the Company is required to pay additional amounts to any Bank or Agent pursuant to subsection 3.01(b) or 3.01(d), then such Bank shall (at the request of the Company) use its reasonable best efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office or to take other reasonable action so as to eliminate any such additional payment by the Company which may thereafter accrue if such change or action in the judgment of such Bank, would not subject such Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Bank in connection with such designation.

(i) Any Bank that is a U.S. Person for United States Federal income tax purposes shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Bank becomes a party hereto (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 certifying that such Bank is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

(j) If any Bank determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Company or with respect to which the Company has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.01, then it shall pay over such refund to the Company (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Company under this Section 3.01 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including taxes) of such Bank and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Company, upon the request of such Bank, shall repay to such Bank the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (j) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (j), in no event will the Bank be required to pay any amount to the Company pursuant to this paragraph (j) the payment of which would place the Bank in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Bank would have been in if the tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph (j) shall not be construed to require any Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Company or any other Person.

(k) If a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed by FATCA if such Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Bank shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Bank has complied with such Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (k), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

SECTION 3.02. Illegality. Error! Bookmark not defined. If any Bank shall reasonably determine, based upon the advice of its counsel, that the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Bank or its Lending Office to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by the Bank to the Company through the Administrative Agent, the obligation of that Bank to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Bank shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

(b) If a Bank shall reasonably determine, based upon the advice of its counsel, that it is unlawful to maintain any Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Company shall prepay in full all Eurocurrency Rate Loans of that Bank then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof if the Bank may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Bank may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans, together with any amounts required to be paid in connection therewith pursuant to Section 3.04.

(c) If the Company is required to prepay any Eurocurrency Rate Loan immediately as provided in subsection 3.02(b), then concurrently with such prepayment, the Company shall borrow from the affected Bank, in the amount of such repayment, a Base Rate Loan.

(d) If the obligation of any Bank to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans has been suspended as provided in subsection 3.02(a), the Company may elect, by giving notice to the Bank through the Administrative Agent that all Loans which would otherwise be made by the Bank as Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be instead Base Rate Loans.

(e) Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.02, the affected Bank shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its Eurocurrency Rate Loans if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of the Bank, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to the Bank.

SECTION 3.03. Increased Costs and Reduction of Return. Error! Bookmark not defined. If any Bank shall determine that, due to and as a direct result of any Change in Law (other than any change by way of imposition of or increase in reserve requirements included in the calculation of the Eurocurrency Rate), there shall be any increase in the cost to such Bank of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining its Revolving Commitment hereunder or any Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of any imposition or increase in taxes, any Loans) (including any imposition or increase in taxes (other than (x) taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of the Company under any Loan Document or (y) Other Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto), or of agreeing to issue or participate in or issuing or participating in any Letters of Credit, then the Company shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand therefor by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Bank for such increased costs. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 3.03(a) does not apply to increased costs as a result of (A) taxes described in Section 3.01(a)(i), (ii) or (iii), (B) Taxes as defined in Section 3.01(a), or (C) Other Taxes.

(b) If any Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank and (taking into consideration such Bank’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity and such Bank’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its Revolving Commitment, Loans, credits or obligations under this Agreement (including its obligations in respect of Letters of Credit), then, upon demand of such Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Company shall upon demand pay to such Bank, from time to time as specified by such Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank for such increase.

(c) If the Company is required to pay additional amounts to any Bank pursuant to subsection 3.03(a) or 3.03(b), then such Bank shall (at the request of the Company) use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Lending Office with respect to its Eurocurrency Rate Loans so as to eliminate any such additional payment by the Company, which may thereafter accrue if such change in the judgment of such Bank, would not subject such Bank to any unreimbursed cost or expense and is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank. The Company hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Bank in connection with any such designation.

(d) For purposes of this Section 3.03, all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or by United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, and the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, shall be deemed to have been introduced and adopted after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Bank shall be entitled to seek compensation for costs imposed pursuant to the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or Basel III if it shall not be the general policy of such Bank at such time to seek compensation from other borrowers with the same or similar ratings under yield protection provisions in credit agreements with such borrowers that provide for such compensation and the applicable Bank is in fact generally seeking such compensation from such borrowers (and, upon any request by such Bank for payment, certifies to the Company to the effect of the foregoing).

(e) The Company shall pay to each Bank, (i) as long as such Bank shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Bank (as determined by such Bank in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), and (ii) as long as such Bank shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Revolving Commitments or the funding of the Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Revolving Commitment or Loan by such Bank (as determined by such Bank in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Company shall have received at least ten (10) days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or costs from such Bank. If a Bank fails to give notice ten (10) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable ten (10) days from receipt of such notice.

SECTION 3.04. Funding Losses. The Company agrees to reimburse each Bank and to hold each Bank harmless from any loss or out-of-pocket expense which such Bank may sustain or incur as a direct consequence of:

(a) the failure of the Company to make on a timely basis any payment of principal of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan (including payments made after any acceleration thereof);

(b) the failure of the Company to borrow, continue or convert a Loan after the Company has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation;

(c) the failure of the Company to make any prepayment after the Company has given a notice in accordance with Section 2.06;

(d) any failure by the Company to make payment of any Loan or (or interest due thereon) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency;

(e) any principal payment in respect of an Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto; or

(f) the conversion pursuant to Section 2.04 of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the respective Interest Period;

including any loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract. The Company shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Bank in connection with the foregoing.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Company to the Banks under this Section 3.04, each Bank shall be deemed to have funded each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the offshore interbank market for such currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

SECTION 3.05. Inability to Determine Rates. If the Administrative Agent shall have determined (i) that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan or (ii) that the Eurocurrency Rate applicable pursuant to subsection 2.08(a) for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to any Bank of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Company and each Bank. Thereafter, (i) the obligation of the Banks to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency hereunder shall be suspended and (ii) each outstanding Loan in the affected currency shall be prepaid (or, in the case of a Dollar-Denominated Loan, converted into a Base Rate Loan) on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto until the Administrative Agent revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it. If the Company does not revoke such notice, the Banks shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as proposed by the Company, in the Dollar Amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by the Company, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of Eurocurrency Rate Loans.

SECTION 3.06. Certificates of Banks. Any Bank claiming reimbursement or compensation pursuant to this Article 3 shall deliver to the Company (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and the computation of the amount payable to the Bank hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Company in the absence of manifest error.

SECTION 3.07. Substitution of Banks. Upon (x) the receipt by the Company from any Bank of a notice of illegality with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans pursuant to Section 3.02, or (y) the receipt by the Company from any Bank of a claim for additional amounts or compensation pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.03, the Company may: request one or more of the other Banks to acquire and assume all or part of such Bank’s Loans and Revolving Commitment (but no other Bank shall be required to do so); or designate a replacement bank meeting the qualifications of an Eligible Assignee. Any such transfer under clause (i) or (ii) shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.04 and 10.09 hereof.

SECTION 3.08. Defaulting Banks. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Bank pursuant to subsection 2.09(a);

(b) if any Letter of Credit Liabilities exist at the time such Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank then:

(i) the Letter of Credit Liabilities of such Defaulting Bank shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Banks in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages but only to the extent (x) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) the sum of each non-Defaulting Bank’s Loans plus its Letter of Credit Liabilities does not exceed its Revolving Commitment;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Bank(s) only the Company’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Bank’s Letter of Credit Liabilities (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8.03 for so long as such Letter of Credit Liabilities remain outstanding;

(iii) if the Company cash collateralizes all or any portion of such Defaulting Bank’s Letter of Credit Liabilities pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Company shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Bank pursuant to subsection 2.09(a) or 2.09(c) with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s Letter of Credit Liabilities during the period such Defaulting Bank’s Letter of Credit Liabilities are cash collateralized;

(iv) if the Letter of Credit Liabilities of the Defaulting Banks are reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Banks pursuant to subsections 2.09(a) and 2.09(c) shall be similarly reallocated to the same extent; and

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Bank’s Letter of Credit Liabilities is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any other Bank hereunder, all facility fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Bank (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Bank’s Commitment that was utilized by such Letter of Credit Liabilities) and letter of credit fees payable under subsection 2.09(c) with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s Letter of Credit Liabilities shall be payable to the Issuing Bank(s) until and to the extent that such Letter of Credit Liabilities are reallocated and/or cash collateralized;

(c) so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Bank’s Letter of Credit Liabilities then outstanding will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Banks and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Company in accordance with paragraph (b) above, and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Banks in a manner consistent with paragraph (b) above (and such Defaulting Bank shall not participate therein);

(d) in the event that the Administrative Agent, the Company and each Issuing Bank agrees that a Defaulting Bank has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Bank to be a Defaulting Bank, then the Letter of Credit Liabilities of the Banks shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Bank’s Commitment Percentage and on such date such Bank shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Banks as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Bank to hold such Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage; provided that, subject to Section 10.22, nothing in this paragraph (d) shall constitute a waiver or release by any party hereunder of any claim arising from such Bank having been a Defaulting Bank; and

(e) the Company may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank:

(i) provided that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, terminate the Revolving Commitment of such Bank and, in connection therewith, prepay the outstanding Loans of such Bank in full, together with accrued interest thereon and any other amounts payable hereunder for the account of such Bank; provided that if any Letter of Credit Liabilities are then outstanding, they should have been reallocated and/or cash collateralized in full in accordance with paragraph (b) above; or

(ii) designate a replacement bank meeting the qualifications of an Eligible Assignee.

Any prepayment under clause (i) shall be subject to the provisions of Section 3.04 hereof, and any transfer under clause (ii) shall be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.04 and 10.09 hereof.

SECTION 3.09. Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Company in this Article 3 shall survive the payment of all other Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Banks and the Issuing Bank, and the Company shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Bank, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.02. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any Administrative Agent-Related Person. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Administrative Agent-Related Persons, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects with reasonable care.

SECTION 9.03. Liability of Administrative Agent. None of the Administrative Agent-Related Persons shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any other Loan Document (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct), or be responsible in any manner to any of the Banks for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement, in any Letter of Credit or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of the Company or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Administrative Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Bank to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the Properties, books or records of the Company or any of the Company’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

SECTION 9.04. Reliance by Administrative Agent. Error! Bookmark not defined. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation (including, without limitation, telephonic or electronic notices, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution, Notices of Borrowing and Notices of Conversion/Continuation) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof.  The Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, each Bank and their respective Affiliates and their and their respective Affiliates’ partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, administrators, managers, advisors and representatives from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Company.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Majority Banks as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Banks 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Majority Banks and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Banks.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.01, each Bank that has executed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with each document or other matter either sent by the Administrative Agent to such Bank for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Bank.

SECTION 9.05. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Bank or the Company referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Banks. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be requested by the Majority Banks in accordance with Article 8; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received any such request, 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 or in the best interest of the Banks.

SECTION 9.06. Credit Decision. Each Bank expressly acknowledges that none of the Administrative Agent-Related Persons 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 the Company and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Bank. Each Bank represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Administrative Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Company and its Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated thereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and extend credit to the Company hereunder. Each Bank also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Administrative Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Company. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Banks by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Company which may come into the possession of any of the Administrative Agent-Related Persons.

SECTION 9.07. Indemnification. The Banks shall indemnify upon demand the Administrative Agent-Related Persons and any Issuing Bank (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Company and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so), ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments, or if no Revolving Commitments are in effect, in accordance with their respective outstanding Loans, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the repayment of the Loans and the termination or resignation of the Administrative Agent) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Person any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any document contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by any such Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, however, that no Bank shall be liable for the payment to the Administrative Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent resulting from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Bank shall reimburse the Administrative Agent and any Issuing Bank upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Bank (because the appropriate form was not delivered or properly executed, or because such Bank failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Bank shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.07, together with all costs and expenses and attorneys’ fees (including Attorney Costs). A certificate as to the amount of such liability delivered to any Bank by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Bank from any source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.07. The obligation of the Banks in this Section 9.07 shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder.

SECTION 9.08. Administrative Agent in Individual Capacity. Bank of America and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though Bank of America were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Banks. The Banks acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, Bank of America or its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Company or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Company or such Affiliates) and acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, Bank of America shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Bank” and “Banks” shall include Bank of America in its individual capacity.

SECTION 9.09. Successor Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Banks. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Company shall appoint from among the Banks a successor agent for the Banks (unless an Event of Default then exists in which case the Majority Banks shall appoint the successor agent). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Banks and the Company, a successor agent from among the Banks. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 9 and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and after such resignation for as long as it continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor agent. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Banks under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and the Banks shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Company or the Majority Banks appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

(b) Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Issuing Bank. If Bank of America resigns as Issuing Bank, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Bank and all Letter of Credit Liabilities with respect thereto, including the right to require the Banks to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Reimbursement Obligations pursuant to Section 2.15(c). Upon the appointment by the Company of a successor Issuing Bank and the acceptance of such appointment by the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Bank other than a Defaulting Bank), (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank, (b) the retiring Issuing Bank shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.

SECTION 9.10. Lead Arrangers and Other Agents. None of the Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent or the Documentation Agents shall have any obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Banks as such. Each Bank acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on the Syndication Agent or the Documentation Agents in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder. The Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent and the Documentation Agents shall have the express benefit of this Section 9.10 and Sections 10.05 and 10.07.

All notices, requests and other communications provided for hereunder to any party shall be in writing (including, unless the context expressly otherwise provides, by facsimile transmission; provided that any matter transmitted by the Company by facsimile shall be immediately confirmed by a telephone call to the recipient at the number specified on the signature pages hereof or in the applicable Administrative Questionnaire, as the case may be, and shall be followed promptly by a hard copy original thereof) and mailed, faxed or delivered, to such party: in the case of the Company or the Administrative Agent, at its address or facsimile number set forth on the signature pages hereof, in the case of any Bank, at its address or facsimile number set forth in its Administrative Questionnaire, or in the case of any party, at such other address or facsimile number as such party may hereafter specify for the purpose by notice to the Administrative Agent and the Company.

(c) Notices and other communications to the Banks and the Issuing Banks hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications (including e mail, FpML messaging, and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Bank or Issuing Bank pursuant to Article 2 if such Bank has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication.

The Company acknowledges and agrees that any agreement of the Administrative Agent and the Banks in Article 2 herein to receive certain notices by telephone and facsimile is solely for the convenience and at the request of the Company. The Administrative Agent and the Banks shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person purporting to be a Person authorized by the Company to give such notice and the Administrative Agent and the Banks shall not have any liability to the Company or other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent or the Banks in reliance upon such telephonic or facsimile notice. The obligation of the Company to repay the Loans shall not be affected in any way or to any extent by any failure by the Administrative Agent and the Banks to receive written confirmation of any telephonic or facsimile notice or the receipt by the Administrative Agent and the Banks of a confirmation which is at variance with the terms understood by the Administrative Agent and the Banks to be contained in the telephonic or facsimile notice.

No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or Bank, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

(a) pay or reimburse Bank of America (including in its capacity as Administrative Agent) within fifteen Business Days after demand (subject to subsection 4.01(e)) for all reasonable, demonstrable costs and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Bank of America (including in its capacity as Administrative Agent) in connection with the development, preparation, delivery and execution of, and any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification to (in each case, whether or not consummated), this Agreement, any Loan Document and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable Attorney Costs incurred by Bank of America (including in its capacity as Administrative Agent) with respect thereto as agreed in the Fee Letters; and

This Section 10.05 shall not apply with respect to taxes other than any taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-tax claim.

(b) An Indemnified Person shall give prompt notice to the Company of any claim asserted in writing, or the commencement of any action or proceeding, in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder; provided that the omission so to notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability, if any, which it may have to the Indemnified Person otherwise than under subsection 10.05(a) unless and to the extent that the Company shall have been damaged by the delay in notification or the failure to be notified.

(c) The Indemnified Person shall assist the Company in the defense of any such action or proceeding by arranging discussions with (and the calling as witnesses of) relevant officers, directors, employees and agents of the Indemnified Person and providing reasonable access to relevant books and records.

In any such action or proceeding which the Company has participated in or assumed the defense of, the Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain separate counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at its own expense unless the named parties to any such suit, action or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Company and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them it being understood and agreed that the Company shall not have liability for the fees and expenses of more than one firm (in addition to local counsel) which shall be retained to act in such circumstances for all of the Indemnified Parties; provided, however, that the Company shall have the liability for the fees and expenses of more than one firm if such firm or firms has or have been retained due to actual or potential differing interests among the Indemnified Parties.

(d) The Company shall not be liable under this Section 10.05 for any settlement effected without its consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of any claim, litigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder. The Company may settle any claim without the consent of the Indemnified Person if monetary damages are paid in full by the Company; provided that the Company shall not make any admission of wrongdoing by such Indemnified Person and all claimants shall execute a full release in favor of such Indemnified Person.

SECTION 10.07. No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Bank, each Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates (each, a “Bank Party”) may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Company. The Company agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between the Bank Parties and the Company, its stockholders or Affiliates. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Bank Parties, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transactions, each Bank Party is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other person, no Bank Party has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or in any other Loan Document or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Bank Party or any of its Affiliates has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and the Company has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate. The Company further acknowledges and agrees that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. The Company agrees that it will not claim that any Bank Party has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, its stockholder or Affiliates, in connection with such transactions or the process leading thereto.

(a) Any Bank may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment, Letter of Credit Liabilities and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Bank’s Revolving Commitment, Letter of Credit Liabilities and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund with respect to a Bank, the amount of the Revolving Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities outstanding thereunder) subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, as hereinafter defined, with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and in any event, the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after it receives a written request for consent thereto), each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans, the Letter of Credit Liabilities and/or the Revolving Commitment assigned and the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Bank, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection 2.02(a), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement, and the assigning Bank thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement covering all of the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.03, 10.04, and 10.05). Any assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(b) No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) to any Defaulting Bank or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Bank hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural Person (or to a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person). Each assignee shall be capable of making Loans hereunder in Dollars or any Alternative Currency.

(c) Any Bank may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Company or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Bank’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment, the Loans and/or the Letter of Credit Liabilities at the time owing to it); provided that such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and the Company, the Administrative Agent and the other Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Bank sells such a participation shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Bank will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clause (a), (b) or (c) of Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (d) of this Section, the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 and 3.04 to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section.

(d) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.03 than the applicable Bank would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. A Participant organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with subsection 3.01(f) as though it were a Bank (it being understood that the documentation required under subsection 3.01(f) shall be delivered to the participating Bank). Each Bank that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a nonfiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Bank shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Bank shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Any Bank may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Bank, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Bank as a party hereto.

SECTION 10.10. Confidentiality. Each Bank agrees to take normal and reasonable precautions and exercise due care (in the same manner as it exercises for its own affairs) to maintain the confidentiality of all information identified as “confidential” by the Company and provided to it by the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company, or by the Administrative Agent on such Company’s or Subsidiary’s behalf, in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any other Loan Document, and neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall use any such information for any purpose or in any manner other than pursuant to the terms contemplated by this Agreement; except to the extent such information:

(i) was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by such Bank, or

(ii) was or becomes available on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Company; provided that such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Company known to such Bank; and, provided, further, that any Bank may disclose such information:

(A) at the request or pursuant to any requirement of any Governmental Authority to which such Bank or its Affiliates are subject or in connection with an examination of such Bank or its Affiliates by any such authority and any self-regulatory body having or claiming oversight over any Bank or any of its Affiliates;

(B) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; provided that the Company is given prompt notice of such subpoena or other process (unless such Bank is legally prohibited from giving such notice);

(C) when required to do so in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law;

(D) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation or proceeding to which any Agent, any Bank or their respective Affiliates may be party;

(E) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document;

(F) to any other party hereto;

(G) with the consent of the Company; and

(H) to such Bank’s and its Affiliates’ agents, independent auditors and other professional advisors as may be reasonably required in order for any party to fulfill its obligations; provided that such auditors or advisors shall be informed of the confidentiality requirements of this Agreement and instructed to keep such information confidential.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company authorizes each Bank to disclose to any Participant or Eligible Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and to any prospective Transferee or to any actual or prospective contractual counterparty (or its advisors) to any securitization, hedge or other derivative transaction, such financial and other information in such Bank’s possession concerning the Company or its Subsidiaries which has been delivered to the Administrative Agent or the Banks pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to the Administrative Agent or the Banks by the Company in connection with the Bank’s credit evaluation of the Company prior to entering into this Agreement; provided that, unless otherwise agreed by the Company, such Person agrees in writing to such Bank to keep such information confidential on terms no less restrictive than the provisions hereunder or to the same extent required of the Banks hereunder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any party hereto (and any employee, representative or other agent of thereof) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. federal income tax treatment and the U.S. federal income tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. However, no disclosure of any information relating to such tax treatment or tax structure may be made to the extent nondisclosure is reasonably necessary in order to comply with applicable securities laws.

In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Banks may disclose the existence of this Agreement and customary information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Banks in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Revolving Commitments and to any credit insurance provider relating to the Company and its obligations; provided that such Person is advised of and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.10.

SECTION 10.11. Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Banks provided by law, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Bank is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Company, any such notice being waived by the Company to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing to, such Bank or any of its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Company against any and all Obligations owing to such Bank or Affiliate, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Bank shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured. Each Bank agrees promptly to notify the Company and the Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Bank or Affiliate; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Bank under this Section 10.11 are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which the Bank may have.

SECTION 10.12. Notification of Addresses, Lending Offices, Etc. Each Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any changes in the address to which notices to the Bank should be directed, of addresses of its Lending Office, of payment instructions in respect of all payments to be made to it hereunder and of such other administrative information as the Agent shall reasonably request.

SECTION 10.13. Counterparts.

SECTION 10.22. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.

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

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

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

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

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

SECTION 10.23. Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Company in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Bank hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Bank from the Company in the Agreement Currency, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Bank in such currency, the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Company (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

SECTION 10.24. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Bank shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Bank exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
