(iii) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow at any time prior to the Facility Termination Date. The Commitments to lend hereunder shall expire on the Facility Termination Date.

(iv) Immediately and automatically upon the occurrence of a Default under Sections 7.2, 7.6 or 7.7, (A) each Lender shall be deemed to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from each Multicurrency Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest in and participation in each Multicurrency Loan ratably in accordance with such Lender’s Commitment Percentage, (B) immediately and automatically all Multicurrency Loans outstanding in Agreed Currencies other than Dollars shall be converted to and redenominated in Dollars equal to the Dollar Amount of each such Multicurrency Loan determined as of the date of such conversion, (C) each Multicurrency Lender shall be deemed to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from each Dollar Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest in and participation in each Dollar Loan ratably in accordance with such Multicurrency Lender’s Commitment Percentage. Each of the Lenders shall pay to the applicable Multicurrency Lender not later than two (2) Business Days following a request for payment from such Lender,

in Dollars, an amount equal to the undivided interest in and participation in the Multicurrency Loan purchased by such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.1(a)(iv), and each of the Multicurrency Lenders shall pay to the applicable Dollar Lender not later than two (2) Business Days following a request for payment from such Lender, in Dollars, an amount equal to the undivided interest in and participation in the Dollar Loan purchased by such Multicurrency Lender pursuant to this Section 2.1(a)(iv), it being the intent of the Lenders that following such equalization payments, each Lender shall hold its Commitment Percentage of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure.

(b) Swingline Loans.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrowers from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof to but excluding the Facility Termination Date in the aggregate principal outstanding amount not to exceed the Swingline Sublimit; provided that after giving effect to such Swingline Loan, the Dollar Amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure at any time shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitment, and provided further that at no time shall the Dollar Amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure of the Swingline Lender exceed the Aggregate Commitment of such Lender. Swingline Loans may be denominated in any Agreed Currency; provided that the Swingline Lender is only obligated to make Swingline Loans available in Dollars. The Swingline Lender may make Swingline Loans available in other Agreed Currencies in its sole discretion and if any such Swingline Loans are made available in other Agreed Currencies, such Swingline Loans shall be deemed to utilize the Swingline Lender’s Multicurrency Commitment. Each Lender’s Commitment shall be deemed utilized by an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Dollar Amount of each Swingline Loan for purposes of determining the amount of Loans required to be made by such Lender. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.1(b), repay and reborrow at any time prior to the Facility Termination Date. All Swingline Loans shall bear interest at the Base Rate or such other rate as shall be agreed between the relevant Borrower and the Swingline Lender with respect to any Swingline Loan at the time such Swingline Loan is made. The Company shall repay each Swingline Loan on the earlier to occur of (i) the date ten (10) Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made, if requested by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Swingline Lender, and (ii) the Facility Termination Date. If any Swingline Loan is not repaid by the relevant Borrower on the date when due, each Lender will make a Floating Rate Loan the proceeds of which will be used to repay the Swingline Loan as described in Section 2.1(b)(ii).

(ii) The Swingline Lender is making the Swingline Loans in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.1(b). The Swingline Lender may at any time in its sole and absolute discretion require that any Swingline Loan be refunded by a Floating Rate Advance from the Lenders, and upon written notice thereof by the Swingline Lender to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the relevant Borrower, such Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Floating Rate Advance in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount of such Swingline Loan and such Floating Rate Advance shall be made to refund such Swingline Loan. Any Swingline Loan outstanding in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, shall, upon the giving of such notice by the Swingline Lender, immediately and automatically be converted to and redenominated in Dollars equal to the Dollar Amount of each such Swingline Loan determined as of the date of such conversion. Each Lender shall be absolutely and unconditionally obligated to fund its Commitment Percentage of such Floating Rate Advance or, if applicable, to purchase a participation interest in the Swingline Loans pursuant to Section

2.1(b)(iii) and such obligation shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender has or may have against the Administrative Agent or any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or anyone else for any reason whatsoever (including without limitation any failure to comply with the requirements of Section 4.2, other than the Swingline Lender making a Swingline Loan when it had actual knowledge of the existence of a Default); (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, subject to Section 2.1(b)(iii); (C) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; (D) any breach of this Agreement by any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Lender; or (E) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing (including without limitation any Borrower’s failure to satisfy any conditions contained in Article IV or any other provision of this Agreement).

(iii) If as a result of the occurrence of a Default with respect to any Borrower pursuant to Article VII Floating Rate Loans may not be made by the Lenders as described in Section 2.1(b)(ii), then (A) each Borrower agrees that each Swingline Loan not paid pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(ii) shall bear interest, payable on demand by the Swingline Lender, at the Overdue Rate, (B) each Borrower agrees that each Swingline Loan outstanding in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall be immediately and automatically converted to and redenominated in Dollars equal to the Dollar Amount of each such Swingline Loan determined as of the date of such conversion, and (C) effective on the date each such Floating Rate Loan would otherwise have been made, each Lender severally agrees that it shall unconditionally and irrevocably, without regard to the occurrence of any Default, in lieu of deemed disbursement of loans, to the extent of such Lender’s Commitment, purchase a participation interest in the Swingline Loans by paying its Commitment Percentage thereof; provided, however, that no Lender shall be obligated to purchase such participation in a Swingline Loan made by the Swingline Lender when it had actual knowledge of the existence of a Default. Each Lender will immediately transfer to the Swingline Lender, in same day funds, the amount of its participation. Each Lender shall share based on its Commitment Percentage in any interest which accrues thereon and in all repayments thereof. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such participating interest available to the Swingline Lender, such Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Swingline Lender forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by the Swingline Lender until the date such amount is paid to the Swingline Lender, at (x) in the case of the Company, at the interest rate specified above and (y) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the applicable Alternate Currency Addendum, from and including the later of the date of this Agreement and the date of execution of the applicable Alternate Currency Addendum and prior to the Facility Termination Date (unless an earlier termination date shall be specified in the applicable Alternate Currency Addendum), the Administrative Agent and the applicable Alternate Currency Lenders agree, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable Alternate Currency Addendum, to make Alternate Currency Loans under such Alternate Currency Addendum to the applicable Borrower party to such Alternate Currency Addendum from time to time in the applicable Alternate Currency, in an amount not to exceed each such Alternate Currency Lender’s applicable Alternate Currency Commitment; provided, however, (i) at no time shall the outstanding principal amount of all Alternate Currency Loans exceed the Alternate Currency Commitment for such currency, (ii) at no time shall the Aggregate Multicurrency

Outstanding Credit Exposure exceed the Aggregate Multicurrency Commitments, (iii) at no time shall the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Alternate Currency Loans for any specific Alternate Currency exceed the amount specified as the maximum amount for such Alternate Currency in the applicable Alternate Currency Addendum and (iv) at no time shall the aggregate Alternate Currency Commitments exceed $50,000,000. The Dollar Amount of any Alternate Currency Commitment of an Alternate Currency Lender shall be deemed to utilize such Lender’s Multicurrency Commitment. Each Alternate Currency Loan shall consist of Alternate Currency Loans made by each applicable Alternate Currency Lender ratably in proportion to such Alternate Currency Lender’s respective Alternate Currency Share. Subject to the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Alternate Currency Addendum, the Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow Alternate Currency Loans at any time prior to the Facility Termination Date. On the Facility Termination Date, the outstanding principal balance of the Alternate Currency Loans shall be paid in full by the applicable Borrower and prior to the Facility Termination Date prepayments of the Alternate Currency Loans shall be made by the applicable Borrower if and to the extent required by this Agreement. Subject to the applicable Alternate Currency Addendum, each Alternate Currency Loan shall have a maturity of one, two, three or six months and bear interest at the Eurocurrency Rate for such period as if such Loan were a Eurocurrency Loan.

(ii) The Company may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent request the establishment of additional Alternate Currency Commitments in additional Alternate Currencies, provided the Dollar Amount of the Alternate Currency Commitment requested together with the Aggregate Multicurrency Outstanding Credit Exposure does not exceed the Aggregate Multicurrency Commitments (each such request, a “Request for a New Alternate Currency Facility”). The Administrative Agent will promptly forward to the Multicurrency Lenders any Request for a New Alternate Currency Facility received from the Company, provided each Lender shall be deemed not to have agreed to such request unless its written consent thereto has been received by the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days from the date of such notification by the Administrative Agent to such Lender (or such shorter period as shall be specified by the Company in the Request for a New Alternate Currency Facility). In the event that one or more Multicurrency Lenders consent to such Request for a New Alternate Currency Facility and agree to make Alternate Currency Loans in such Alternate Currency in an amount not less than that requested by the Company, upon execution of the applicable Alternate Currency Addendum and the other documents, instruments and agreements required pursuant to this Agreement and such Alternate Currency Addendum, the Alternate Currency Loans with respect thereto may be made.

(iii) Except as otherwise required by applicable Law, in no event shall the Administrative Agent or Alternate Currency Lenders have the right to accelerate the Alternate Currency Loans outstanding under any Alternate Currency Addendum or to terminate their Alternate Currency Commitments (if any) thereunder to make Alternate Currency Loans prior to the stated termination date in respect thereof, except that such Administrative Agent and Alternate Currency Lenders shall, in each case, have such rights upon an acceleration of the Loans and a termination of the Commitments pursuant to Section 8.1.

(iv) Immediately and automatically upon the occurrence of a Default under Sections 7.2, 7.6 or 7.7, each Lender shall be deemed to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from each Alternate Currency Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest in and participation in each Alternate Currency Loan ratably in accordance with such Lender’s Commitment Percentage, and immediately and automatically all Alternate Currency Loans shall be converted to and redenominated in Dollars equal to the Dollar Amount of each such Alternate

Currency Loan determined as of the date of such conversion. Each of the Lenders shall pay to the applicable Alternate Currency Lender not later than two (2) Business Days following a request for payment from such Lender, in Dollars, an amount equal to the undivided interest in and participation in the Alternate Currency Loan purchased by such Lender pursuant to this Section 2.1(c)(iv).

2.2 Optional Increase of the Commitments.

So long as no Default or Unmatured Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the other conditions set forth in Section 4.2 have been satisfied, at any time after the Closing Date, the Company shall have the right, in consultation with the Administrative Agent, from time to time and upon not less than fifteen (15) days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, to increase the Aggregate Commitment; provided that:

(a) Each increase in the Aggregate Commitment shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $50,000,000 or a whole multiple of $10,000,000 in excess thereof up to a maximum total increase in the Aggregate Commitment of $500,000,000. Increases in the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall not increase or otherwise affect the Aggregate Multicurrency Commitment, the Swingline Sublimit or the Letter of Credit sublimit set forth in Section 2.21.1.

(b) Loans issued in respect of any increase in the Aggregate Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.2 will rank pari passu in right of payment and security with the other Loans issued hereunder and shall constitute and be part of the Obligations arising under this Agreement.

(c) (i) Each existing Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to commit to all or a portion of the proposed increase, (ii) the failure by any existing Lender to respond to a request for such increase shall be deemed to be a refusal of such request by such existing Lender and (iii) if the Administrative Agent does not receive sufficient commitments from the existing Lenders to fund the entire amount of the proposed increase, the Company may then solicit commitments from other banks, financial institutions or investment funds that are reasonably acceptable to both the Administrative Agent and the Company.

(d) Any increase in the Aggregate Commitment which is accomplished by increasing the Commitment of any Lender or Lenders who are at the time of such increase party to this Agreement (which Lender or Lenders shall consent to such increase in their sole and absolute discretion) shall be accomplished as follows: (i) this Agreement will be amended by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Lender whose Commitment is being increased (but notwithstanding Section 8.2, without any requirement that the consent of any other Lender be obtained) to reflect the revised Commitment and Commitment Percentage of each of the Lenders, (ii) the outstanding Credit Extensions will be reallocated on the effective date of such increase among the Lenders in accordance with their revised Commitment Percentages (and the Lenders agree to make all payments and adjustments necessary to effect the reallocation and the Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender for any loss or costs required pursuant to Section 3.4 in connection with such reallocation as if such reallocation were a repayment) and (iii) if requested by such Lender or Lenders, the Borrowers will deliver new Note(s) to the Lender or Lenders whose Commitment(s) is or are being increased reflecting the revised Commitment of such Lender(s).

(e) Any increase in the Aggregate Commitment which is accomplished by addition of a new Lender or Lenders under the Agreement shall be accomplished as follows: (i) each new Lender shall be an Eligible Assignee and shall be subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Company, on behalf of itself and the Subsidiary Borrowers, which consents shall not be unreasonably

withheld, (ii) this Agreement will be amended by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each new Lender (but notwithstanding Section 8.2, without any requirement that the consent of any other Lender be obtained) to reflect the addition of each new Lender as a Lender hereunder and to reflect the revised Commitment and Commitment Percentages of each of the Lenders (including each new Lender), (iii) the outstanding Credit Extensions and Commitment Percentages will be reallocated on the effective date of such increase among the Lenders (including each new Lender) in accordance with their revised Commitment Percentages (and the Lenders (including each new Lender) agree to make all payments and adjustments necessary to effect the reallocation and the Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender for any loss or costs required pursuant to Section 3.4 in connection with such reallocation as if such reallocation were a repayment) and (iv) at the request of any new Lender, the Borrowers will deliver a Note to such new Lender.

(f) Prior to any increase to the Aggregate Commitment under this Section 2.2, the Borrowers and the Guarantor shall provide corporate resolutions (or the equivalent for non-corporate entities) authorizing and approving such increase and otherwise in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

2.3 Determination of Dollar Amounts; Termination.

(a) The Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Amount of:

(i) each Advance as of the Borrowing Date or, if applicable, date of conversion/continuation of such Advance;

(ii) all outstanding Advances, LC Obligations and Alternate Currency Loans on and as of the last day of each Interest Period (but not less frequently than quarterly), on receipt of any notice from the Company as to the reduction of the Aggregate Commitment, and on any other Business Day elected by the Administrative Agent in its discretion or upon instruction by the Required Lenders; and

(iii) all outstanding Advances, LC Obligations and Alternate Currency Loans on each Business Day during which Aggregate Dollar Outstanding Credit Exposure of all Lenders exceeds $700,000,000 (or such ratable amount of any reduced Aggregate Dollar Commitment) or Aggregate Multicurrency Outstanding Credit Exposure exceeds $200,000,000 (or such ratable amount of any reduced Aggregate Multicurrency Commitments).

Each day upon or as of which the Administrative Agent determines Dollar Amounts as described in the preceding clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) is herein described as a “Computation Date” with respect to each Advance for which a Dollar Amount is determined on or as of such day.

(b) Any outstanding Advances together with any other unpaid Obligations then due and payable shall be paid in full by the Borrowers on the Facility Termination Date.

2.4 Ratable Loans.

Each Multicurrency Advance (which excludes Alternate Currency Loans) hereunder shall consist of Multicurrency Loans made from the several Multicurrency Lenders ratably in proportion to such Multicurrency Lenders’ respective Available Multicurrency Commitment divided by the aggregate Available Multicurrency Commitments of all Multicurrency Lenders at such time, and each Dollar

Advance hereunder shall consist of Dollar Loans made from the Lenders ratably according to their Dollar Commitment Percentage.

2.5 Types of Advances.

The Advances may be Floating Rate Advances or Eurocurrency Advances, on the one hand, and Dollar Advances or Multicurrency Advances on the other hand, or a combination thereof, selected by the relevant Borrowers in accordance with Sections 2.9 and 2.10; provided, however, that a Floating Rate Advance must also be a Dollar Advance or a Multicurrency Advance denominated in Dollars, and provided that all Multicurrency Advances (other than Multicurrency Advances in Dollars) and all Alternate Currency Loans shall be Eurocurrency Advances.

2.6 Facility Fee; Other Fees; Reductions in Aggregate Commitment.

The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee in Dollars, determined in accordance with the Pricing Schedule, calculated on the actual daily amount of the Aggregate Commitment, whether used or unused, payable quarterly in arrears for the ratable benefit of the Lenders on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter. The facility fee shall accrue from the date of this Agreement until the Facility Termination Date. The Company shall pay to the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agent fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter. The Company shall pay to the Lenders, in Dollars, such fees as shall be separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever. The Aggregate Commitment may permanently and ratably be reduced by the Company in multiples of $10,000,000 upon three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice. Any such reduction shall be allocated ratably between the Dollar Commitment and the Multicurrency Commitment.

2.7 Minimum Amount of Each Advance.

Each Eurocurrency Advance shall be in the minimum Equivalent Amount of $5,000,000 (and in multiples of Equivalent Amounts of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, or in the case of a Multicurrency Advance, such other lesser multiple as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate), and each Floating Rate Advance (other than an Advance to repay Swingline Loans) shall be in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 (and in multiples of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof); provided, however, that any Floating Rate Advance may be in the amount of the unused Aggregate Commitment. Each Swingline Loan denominated in Dollars shall be in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 (and in multiples of $500,000 if in excess thereof) or in the case of Swingline Loans denominated in any currency other than Dollars (which shall be at the sole discretion of the Swingline Lender), such other minimum amounts and multiples as the Swingline Lender shall determine; provided, however, that any Swingline Loan may be in the amount of the unused Swingline Sublimit. Alternate Currency Loans shall be in such minimum amounts as are set forth in the applicable Alternate Currency Addendum.

2.8 Prepayments.

(a) The Borrowers may from time to time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Floating Rate Advances, or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000, any portion of the outstanding Floating Rate Advances upon one (1) Business Day’s prior notice to the Administrative Agent, who shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

(b) The Borrowers may from time to time pay, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all outstanding Eurocurrency Advances, or, in a minimum aggregate Equivalent Amount of $5,000,000, any portion of the outstanding Eurocurrency Advances upon three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, who shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

(c) If at any time, for any reason, the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure of all Lenders shall exceed the Aggregate Commitment then in effect, the Borrowers shall, without notice or demand, immediately prepay the Dollar Loans and/or Multicurrency Loans such that the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Dollar Loans so prepaid, and the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount of Multicurrency Loans so prepaid, at least equals the amount of such excess.

(d) If, at any time for any reason, either (i) the Aggregate Multicurrency Outstanding Credit Exposure of all Multicurrency Lenders exceeds the Aggregate Multicurrency Commitments of the Multicurrency Lenders or (ii) the Aggregate Dollar Outstanding Credit Exposure of all Lenders exceeds the aggregate Dollar Commitments of all Lenders, the Borrowers shall, without notice or demand, immediately prepay the Multicurrency Loans in a Dollar Amount at least equal to the excess referred to in (i) (such repayment to be in the applicable currency) and the Dollar Loans in an amount at least equal to the excess referred to in (ii) (such repayment to be in Dollars).

(e) Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.8 shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the amount prepaid to the date of prepayment and any amounts payable under Section 3.4 in connection with such payment.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, mandatory prepayments of Multicurrency Loans that would otherwise be required pursuant to this Section 2.8 solely as a result of fluctuations in exchange rates from time to time shall only be required to be made pursuant to this Section 2.8 on a Computation Date on the basis of the exchange rates in effect on such Computation Date.

2.9 Method of Selecting Types and Interest Periods for New Advances.

The Company or the relevant Borrower shall select the Type of Advance and, in the case of each Eurocurrency Advance, the Interest Period and Agreed Currency applicable thereto from time to time. The Company or the relevant Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (a “Borrowing Notice”) not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) on the Borrowing Date of each Floating Rate Advance (other than Swingline Loans), (ii) three (3) Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Eurocurrency Advance in Dollars, (iii) three (3) Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Multicurrency Advance in an Agreed Currency of a country that is a member of OECD located in North America or Europe, (iv) four (4) Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Multicurrency Advance in Yen, and (v) five (5) Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Multicurrency Advance in any other Agreed Currency, specifying:

The Company or the relevant Borrower shall give the Swingline Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) notice of its request not later than 11:00 a.m. on the same Business Day such Swingline Loan is requested to be made for each Swingline Loan in Dollars and not later than 10:00 a.m. local time on the same Business Day such Swingline Loan is requested to be made for each Swingline Loan in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars. Not later than 1:00 p.m. on each Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make available its Loan or Loans in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office. The Administrative Agent will make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the applicable Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address.

2.10 Conversion and Continuation of Outstanding Advances.

Floating Rate Advances shall continue as Floating Rate Advances unless and until such Floating Rate Advances are converted into Eurocurrency Advances pursuant to this Section 2.10 or are repaid in accordance with Section 2.8. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall continue as a Eurocurrency Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time:

(a) each such Eurocurrency Advance denominated in Dollars shall be automatically converted into a Floating Rate Advance unless (x) such Eurocurrency Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.8 or (y) the applicable Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency Advance either continue as a Eurocurrency Advance for the same or another Interest Period or be converted into a Floating Rate Advance; and

(b) each such Multicurrency Advance shall automatically continue as a Multicurrency Advance in the same Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one month unless (x) such Multicurrency Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.8 or (y) the applicable Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Multicurrency Advance continue as a Multicurrency Advance for the same or another Interest Period.

Subject to the terms of Section 2.7, the applicable Borrower may elect from time to time to convert all or any part of an Advance of any Type into any other Type or Types of Advances denominated in the same or any other Agreed Currency (other than an Alternate Currency); provided that any conversion of any Eurocurrency Advance shall be made on, and only on, the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. The applicable Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (each a “Conversion/Continuation Notice”) of each conversion of an Advance or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) at least one Business Day, in the case of a conversion into a Floating Rate Advance, (ii) at least three (3) Business Days, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance denominated in Dollars, (iii) at least three (3) Business Days, in the case of a Multicurrency Advance in an Agreed Currency of a country that is a member of OECD located in North America or Europe, (iv) at least four (4) Business Days, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Multicurrency Advance in Yen and (v) at least five (5) Business Days, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Multicurrency Advance in any other Agreed Currency, prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation, specifying:

(a) the requested date, which shall be a Business Day, of such conversion or continuation; and

(b) the Agreed Currency, amount and Type(s) of Advance(s) into which such Advance is to be converted or continued and, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

2.11 Method of Borrowing.

On each Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make available its Loan or Loans, if any, (i) if such Loan is a Dollar Loan or a Multicurrency Loan denominated in Dollars, not later than 1:00 p.m., in Same Day Funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s Office and (ii) if such Loan is a Multicurrency Loan denominated in Agreed Currency other than Dollars or subject to any applicable Alternate Currency Addendum, not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s Office for such currency. Unless the Administrative Agent determines that any applicable condition specified in Article IV has not been satisfied, the Administrative Agent will make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the relevant Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.11, to the extent that a Loan made by a Lender matures on the Borrowing Date of a requested Loan in the same currency, such Lender shall apply the proceeds of the Loan it is then making to the repayment of principal of the maturing Loan.

2.12 Changes in Interest Rate, Etc.

Each Floating Rate Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Advance is made or is converted from a Eurocurrency Advance into a Floating Rate Advance pursuant to Section 2.10 to (but not including) the date it becomes due or is converted into a Eurocurrency Advance pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate for such day. Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of any Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Advance will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Base Rate. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the Eurocurrency Rate determined by the Administrative Agent as applicable to such Eurocurrency Advance based upon the applicable Borrower’s selections under Sections 2.9 and 2.10 and otherwise in accordance with the terms hereof. No Interest Period may end after the Facility Termination Date.

2.13 Rates Applicable After Default.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.9 or 2.10, during the continuance of any Default or Unmatured Default, the Required Lenders may, at their option and by notice to the Borrowers (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that no Advance may be made as, converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Advance. During the continuance of a Default, the Required Lenders may, at their option and by notice to the Borrowers (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that (i) each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest for the remainder of the applicable Interest Period at the rate otherwise applicable to such Interest Period plus 2% per annum; and (ii) each Floating Rate Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate in effect from time to time plus 2% per

annum, and (iii) the LC Fee shall be increased by 2% per annum; provided that, during the continuance of a Default under Section 7.6 or 7.7, the interest rates set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above and the increase in the LC Fee set forth in clause (iii) above shall be applicable to all Credit Extensions without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

2.14 Method of Payment.

(a) Each Advance shall be repaid and each payment of interest thereon shall be paid in the currency in which such Advance was made or converted into. All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be made, without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff, in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the Administrative Agent at (except as set forth in the next sentence) the Administrative Agent’s Office specified in writing by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Borrower, by noon (local time) on the date when due and (except for payments on Swingline Loans and Alternate Currency Loans and except in the case of Reimbursement Obligations for which the LC Issuer has not been fully indemnified by the Lenders or except as otherwise specifically required hereunder) shall be applied ratably by the Administrative Agent among the Lenders. All payments to be made by the Borrowers hereunder in any currency other than Dollars shall be made in such currency on the date due in such funds as may then be customary for the settlement of international transactions in such currency for the account of the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s Office for such currency not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent, and, except for payments of Alternate Currency Loans, shall be applied ratably by the Administrative Agent among the Lenders. Each payment delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Administrative Agent received at, (i) with respect to Floating Rate Loans and Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars, its address specified pursuant to Article XIII or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Administrative Agent from such Lender and (ii) with respect to Eurocurrency Loans denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, in the funds received from the applicable Borrower, its address specified pursuant to Article XIII or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Administrative Agent from such Lender for such currency.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, if, after the making of any Advance in any currency other than Dollars, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency with the result that the type of currency in which the Advance was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the relevant Borrower is not able to make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by the Borrowers hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when due in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Borrowers take all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations.

2.15 Noteless Agreement; Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Agreed Currency and Type thereof and, if applicable, the Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to

become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (iii) the original stated amount of each Facility LC and the amount of LC Obligations outstanding at any time, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(d) Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note (a “Note”). In such event, the relevant Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 12.1) be represented by one or more Notes (but not more than one Note for each Agreed Currency) payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 12.1, except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in paragraphs (a) and (b) above.

2.16 Telephonic Notices.

The Borrowers hereby authorize the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Agreed Currencies and Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices given to the Administrative Agent by any person or persons listed on Schedule 2.16, as such Schedule may be revised by the Company from time to time in accordance with Section 13.1, it being understood that the foregoing authorization is specifically intended to allow Borrowing Notices and Conversion/Continuation Notices to be given telephonically. The Borrowers agree to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent a written confirmation, if such confirmation is requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice signed by an Authorized Officer. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent regarding the telephonic notice shall govern absent manifest error.

2.17 Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis.

Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the date hereof, on any date on which the Floating Rate Advance is prepaid, whether due to acceleration or otherwise, and on the Facility Termination Date. Interest on Floating Rate Loans shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365 or 366-day year, as appropriate. Interest accrued on that portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Floating Rate Advance converted into a Eurocurrency Advance on a day other than a Payment Date shall be payable on the date of conversion. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance shall be payable in arrears on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Eurocurrency Advance is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and on the Facility Termination Date, and with respect to any Alternate Currency Loan, the date specified as the date on which interest is payable in the applicable Alternate Currency Addendum. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period. Facility fees, utilization fees and interest on Eurocurrency Advances and LC Fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year, except for interest on Loans

denominated in British Pounds Sterling which shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365-day year. Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance is made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to noon (local time) at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest on an Advance shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.

2.18 Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Commitment Reductions.

Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing Notice, Conversion/Continuation Notice, and repayment notice received by it hereunder. Promptly after notice from the LC Issuer, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the contents of each request for issuance of a Facility LC hereunder. The Administrative Agent will notify each Lender, the Company and the relevant Borrower of the interest rate applicable to each Eurocurrency Advance promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give each Lender and the Company prompt notice of each change in the Base Rate.

2.19 Lending Installations.

Each Lender will book its Loans and its participation in LC Obligations and the LC Issuer may book the Facility LCs at the appropriate Lending Installation listed on Schedule 2.19 or such other Lending Installation designated by such Lender or the LC Issuer in accordance with the final sentence of this Section 2.19. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and the Loans, Facility LCs, participation in LC Obligations and any Notes issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, for the benefit of any such Lending Installation. Each Lender and the LC Issuer may, by not less than one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in accordance with Article XIII, designate replacement or additional Lending Installations through which Loans will be made by it or Facility LCs will be issued by it and for whose account Loan payments or payments with respect to Facility LCs are to be made.

2.20 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent.

(a) Unless the relevant Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent (or in the case of any Base Rate Advance by 12:00 p.m. on the Business Day of a Borrowing) of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or any payment by such Lender pursuant to Sections 2.1(a)(iv), 2.1(b)(iii) or 2.1(c)(iv), or (ii) in the case of such Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or such Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, (y) in the case of payment by a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan. With respect to Multicurrency Advances, a payment shall be deemed to have been made by the

Administrative Agent on the date on which it is required to be made under this Agreement if the Administrative Agent has, on or before that date, taken all relevant steps to make that payment. With respect to the payment of any amount denominated in Euro, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Borrower or any of the Lenders in any way whatsoever for any delay, or the consequences of any delay, in the crediting to any account of any amount required by this Agreement to be paid by the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent shall have taken all relevant steps to achieve, on the date required by this Agreement, the payment of such amount in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds in Euros to the account with the bank in the principal financial center in the Participating Member State which the relevant Borrower or, as the case may be, any Lender shall have specified for such purpose. In this Section 2.20, “all relevant steps” means all such steps as may be prescribed from time to time by the regulations or operating procedures of such clearing or settlement system as the Administrative Agent may from time to time determine for the purpose of clearing or settling payments of Euros. The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Advance shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Advance and any repayment by such Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(b) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 9.6(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 9.6(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 9.6(c).

2.21 Facility LCs.

2.21.1. Issuance. The LC Issuer hereby agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to issue commercial and standby letters of credit in Dollars (each, a “Facility LC”) and to extend, increase, decrease or otherwise modify each Facility LC (“Modify,” and each such action a “Modification”), from time to time from and including the date of this Agreement and prior to the Facility Termination Date upon the request of a Borrower; provided that (A) immediately after each such Facility LC is issued or Modified, (i) the aggregate amount of the outstanding LC Obligations shall not exceed $150,000,000, (ii) the Aggregate Dollar Outstanding Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Dollar Commitment, and (iii) the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitment and (B) the LC Issuer has not received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Company, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Facility LC, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 4.2 has not been satisfied. No Facility LC shall have an expiry date later than the earlier of (x) the seventh Business Day prior to the Facility Termination Date and (y) one year after its issuance; provided that no Facility LC may expire after the Facility Termination Date of any Lender who did not agree to extend the Facility Termination Date in accordance with Section 2.28 if, after giving effect to such issuance, the aggregate Commitments of the extending Lenders (including any replacement Lenders) for the period following such Facility Termination Date would be less than the available amount of the Facility LCs expiring after such Facility Termination Date. The Existing Facility LCs shall be deemed to be Facility LCs issued and outstanding under this Agreement; provided, however, that such Existing Facility LCs shall be replaced by Facility LCs issued by Bank of America, as the LC Issuer under this Agreement, upon the expiration and/or maturity thereof and shall not be otherwise extended, renewed or modified. The LC Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(a) Any order, judgment or decree of any governmental authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the LC Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit or any Law applicable to the LC Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) from any governmental authority with jurisdiction over the LC Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the LC Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such LC Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the LC Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose the LC Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the LC Issuer in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it; or

(b) The issuance of the Letter of Credit would violate any Laws or one or more policies of the LC Issuer applicable to letters of credit issued to borrowers generally.

2.21.2. Participations. Upon the issuance or Modification by the LC Issuer of a Facility LC in accordance with this Section 2.21, the LC Issuer shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably sold to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the LC Issuer, a participation in such Facility LC (and each Modification thereof) and the related LC Obligations in proportion to its Pro Rata Share.

2.21.3. Notice. Subject to Section 2.21.1, a Borrower shall give the LC Issuer notice prior to 11:00 a.m. at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance or Modification of each Facility LC (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), specifying the beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification) and the expiry date of such Facility LC, and describing the proposed terms of such Facility LC and the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby. Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender, of the contents thereof (including whether it is a standby or commercial letter of credit) and of the amount of such Lender’s participation in such proposed Facility LC. The issuance or Modification by the LC Issuer of any Facility LC shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Article IV (the satisfaction of which the LC Issuer shall have no duty to ascertain), be subject to the conditions precedent that such Facility LC shall be satisfactory to the LC Issuer and that such Borrower shall have executed and delivered such application agreement and/or such other instruments and agreements relating to such Facility LC as the LC Issuer shall have reasonably requested (each, a “Facility LC Application”). In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Facility LC Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

2.21.4. LC Fees. The Company or the relevant Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, (i) with respect to each standby Facility LC, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time on the daily undrawn stated amount under such standby Facility LC, such fee to be payable in arrears on the next Business Day (or, if Wachovia is the LC Issuer, ten (10) Business Days) following each Payment Date and (ii) with respect to each commercial Facility LC, a one-time letter of credit fee in an amount agreed upon between the LC Issuer and such Borrower at the time of issuance calculated on the initial stated amount (or, with respect to any Modification of any such commercial Facility LC which increases the stated amount thereof, such increase in the stated amount) thereof, such fee to be payable on the date of such issuance or increase (such fee described in this sentence, an “LC Fee”). Such Borrower shall also pay to the LC Issuer for its own account (x) a fronting fee (A) in the amount of 0.125% per annum calculated on the stated amount of each standby Facility LC payable in arrears on the next Business Day following each Payment Date, and (B) in an amount to be agreed upon between the LC Issuer and such Borrower with respect to each commercial Facility LC

payable on the issuance date, and (y) documentary and processing charges in connection with the issuance or Modification of and draws under Facility LCs in accordance with the LC Issuer’s standard schedule for such charges as in effect from time to time.

2.21.5. Administration; Reimbursement by Lenders. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Facility LC of any demand for payment under such Facility LC, the LC Issuer shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and each other Lender as to the amount to be paid by the LC Issuer as a result of such demand and the proposed payment date (the “LC Payment Date”). The responsibility of the LC Issuer to the Borrowers and each Lender shall be only to determine that the documents (including each demand for payment) delivered under each Facility LC in connection with such presentment shall be in compliance with such Facility LC. The LC Issuer shall endeavor to exercise the same care in the issuance and administration of the Facility LCs as it does with respect to letters of credit in which no participations are granted, it being understood that in the absence of any gross negligence or willful misconduct by the LC Issuer, each Lender shall be unconditionally and irrevocably liable without regard to the occurrence of any Default or any condition precedent whatsoever, to reimburse the LC Issuer on demand for (i) such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of each payment made by the LC Issuer under each Facility LC to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.21.6 below, plus (ii) interest on the foregoing amount to be reimbursed by such Lender, for each day from the date of the LC Issuer’s demand for such reimbursement (or, if such demand is made after 11:00 a.m. on such date, from the next succeeding Business Day) to the date on which such Lender pays the amount to be reimbursed by it, at a rate of interest per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate for the first three days and, thereafter, at a rate of interest equal to the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances.

2.21.6. Reimbursement by Borrowers. The Borrowers shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the LC Issuer on or before the applicable LC Payment Date for any amounts to be paid by the LC Issuer upon any drawing under any Facility LC issued for any Borrower’s account, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind; provided that neither any Borrower nor any Lender shall hereby be precluded from asserting any claim for direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by such Borrower or such Lender to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC issued by it complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (ii) the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC issued by it after the presentation to it of a request complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. All such amounts paid by the LC Issuer and remaining unpaid by a Borrower shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to (x) the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls on or before the applicable LC Payment Date and (y) the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls after such LC Payment Date. The LC Issuer will pay to each Lender ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share all amounts received by it from a Borrower for application in payment, in whole or in part, of the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC issued by the LC Issuer, but only to the extent such Lender has made payment to the LC Issuer in respect of such Facility LC pursuant to Section 2.21.5. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including without limitation the submission of a Borrowing Notice in compliance with Section 2.9 and the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IV), a Borrower may request an Advance hereunder for the purpose of satisfying any Reimbursement Obligation.

2.21.7. Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.21 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which a Borrower may have or have had against the LC Issuer, any Lender or any beneficiary of a Facility LC. Each Borrower further agrees with the LC Issuer and the

Lenders that the LC Issuer and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrowers, any of their Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any financing institution or other party to whom any Facility LC may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrowers or of any of their Affiliates against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such transferee. The LC Issuer shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Facility LC. Each Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the LC Issuer or any Lender under or in connection with each Facility LC and the related drafts and documents, if done without gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon the Borrowers and shall not put the LC Issuer or any Lender under any liability to the Borrowers. Nothing in this Section 2.21.7 is intended to limit the right of a Borrower to make a claim against the LC Issuer for damages as contemplated by the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.21.6.

2.21.8. Actions of LC Issuer. The LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Facility LC, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the LC Issuer. The LC Issuer shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be in accordance with Section 8.2, as it reasonably deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or refusing to take any such action. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.21, the LC Issuer shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders or, if required pursuant to Section 8.2, all Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and any future holders of a participation in any Facility LC.

2.21.9. Indemnification. Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, the LC Issuer and the Administrative Agent, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any and all claims and damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent may incur (or which may be claimed against such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent by any Person whatsoever) by reason of or in connection with the issuance, execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Facility LC or any actual or proposed use of any Facility LC, including, without limitation, any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which the LC Issuer may incur by reason of or in connection with (i) the failure of any other Lender to fulfill or comply with its obligations to the LC Issuer hereunder (but nothing herein contained shall affect any rights the Borrowers may have against any defaulting Lender) or (ii) by reason of or on account of the LC Issuer issuing any Facility LC which specifies that the term “Beneficiary” included therein includes any successor by operation of Law of the named Beneficiary, but which Facility LC does not require that any drawing by any such successor Beneficiary be accompanied by a copy of a legal document, satisfactory to the LC Issuer, evidencing the appointment of such successor Beneficiary; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to indemnify any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (x) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC

complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (y) the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. Nothing in this Section 2.21.9 is intended to limit the obligations of the Borrowers under any other provision of this Agreement.

2.21.10. Lenders’ Indemnification. Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, indemnify the LC Issuer, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct or the LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request complying with the terms and conditions of the Facility LC) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 2.21 or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

2.21.11. Facility LC Collateral Account. Each Borrower agrees that it will, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders and until the final expiration date of any Facility LC and thereafter as long as any amount is payable to the LC Issuer or the Lenders in respect of any Facility LC, maintain a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (the “Facility LC Collateral Account”) at the Administrative Agent’s Office at the address specified pursuant to Article XIII, in the name of such Borrower but under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and in which such Borrower shall have no interest other than as set forth in Section 8.1. Each Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the LC Issuer, a security interest in all of such Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Obligations. The Administrative Agent will invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the Facility LC Collateral Account in accordance with the Company’s instructions in certificates of deposit of Bank of America having a maturity not exceeding 30 days. Nothing in this Section 2.21.11 shall either obligate the Administrative Agent to require the Borrowers to deposit any funds in the Facility LC Collateral Account, obligate the Borrowers to deposit any funds in the Facility LC Collateral Account or limit the right of the Administrative Agent to release any funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account in each case other than as required by Section 8.1.

2.21.12. Rights as a Lender. In its capacity as a Lender, the LC Issuer shall have the same rights and obligations as any other Lender.

2.22 Market Disruption.

Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions referred to in Article II and Article IV with respect to any Advance in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, if there shall occur on or prior to the date of such Advance any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls which would in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders make it impracticable for the Eurocurrency Loans comprising such Advance to be denominated in the Agreed Currency specified by the relevant Borrower, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders, and such Loans shall not be denominated in such Agreed Currency but shall be made on such Borrowing Date in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be, as Floating Rate Loans, unless the relevant Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least two (2) Business Days before such date that (i) it elects not to borrow on such date or (ii) it elects to borrow on

such date in a different Agreed Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Loans would in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders be practicable and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be.

2.23 Judgment Currency.

If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “Specified Currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the Specified Currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s Office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the Specified Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the Specified Currency with such other currency. If the amount of the Specified Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the Specified Currency, the Borrowers agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the Specified Currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the Specified Currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 11.2, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the relevant Borrower.

2.24 Payment Provisions Relating to the Euro.

(a) Any amount payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders under this Agreement in the currency of a Participating Member State shall be paid in the Euro.

(b) If, in relation to the currency of any Subsequent Participant, the basis of accrual of interest or fees expressed in this Agreement with respect to such currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London Interbank Market or, as the case may be, the Paris Interbank Market for the basis of accrual of interest or fees in respect of the Euro, such convention or practice shall replace such expressed basis effective as of and from the date on which such Subsequent Participant becomes a Participating Member State; provided, that if any Loan in the currency of such Subsequent Participant is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Loan, at the end of the then current Interest Period.

(c) Without prejudice and in addition to any method of conversion or rounding prescribed by any EMU legislation and (i) without prejudice to the respective liabilities for indebtedness of the Borrowers to the Lenders and the Lenders to the Borrowers under or pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) without increasing the Multicurrency Commitment of any Lender each reference in this Agreement to a minimum amount (or an integral multiple thereof) in a national currency denomination of a Subsequent Participant to be paid to or by the Administrative Agent shall, immediately upon such Subsequent Participant becoming a Participating Member State, be replaced by a reference to such

reasonably comparable and convenient amount (or an integral multiple thereof) in Euros as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify.

2.25 Redenomination and Alternative Currencies.

Each obligation under this Agreement of a party to this Agreement which has been denominated in the national currency unit of a Subsequent Participant state shall be redenominated into the Euro in accordance with EMU legislation immediately upon such Subsequent Participant becoming a Participating Member State (but otherwise in accordance with EMU Legislation).

2.26 Replacement of Lender.

If any Borrower is required pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 to make any additional payment to any Lender or if any Lender’s obligation to make or continue, or to convert Floating Rate Advances into, Eurocurrency Advances shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.3, or if any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender (any Lender so affected an “Affected Lender”), the Company may elect, if such amounts continue to be charged or such suspension is still effective or such Lender continues to be a Defaulting Lender, to replace such Affected Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement; provided that no Default or Unmatured Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, and provided further that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Advances and other Obligations due to the Affected Lender pursuant to an Assignment Agreement and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Affected Lender to be terminated as of such date pursuant to an Assignment Agreement and to comply with the requirements of Section 12.1 applicable to assignments, and (ii) the Borrowers shall pay to such Affected Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Affected Lender by the Borrowers hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation any payments due to such Affected Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 and 9.6. Nothing herein shall release any Defaulting Lender from any obligation it may have to any Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender.

2.27 Application of Payments with Respect to Defaulting Lenders.

No payments of principal, interest or fees delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Defaulting Lender shall be delivered by the Administrative Agent to such Defaulting Lender. Instead, such payments shall, for so long as such Defaulting Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender, be held by the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and directed by all parties hereto to hold such funds in escrow and apply such funds as follows:

(a) First, if applicable to any payments due to the Swingline Lender under Section 2.1(b)(iii); and

(b) Second, to Loans required to be made by such Defaulting Lender on any Borrowing Date to the extent such Defaulting Lender fails to make such Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the termination of the Commitments and the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (other than those owing to a Defaulting Lender), any funds then held in escrow by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be distributed to each Defaulting Lender, pro rata in proportion to amounts that would be due to each Defaulting Lender but for the fact that it is a Defaulting Lender.

2.28 Extension of Termination Date.

(a) Requests for Extension. The Company may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders) not earlier than 60 days and not later than 35 days prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date and the second anniversary of the Closing Date, (each an “Extension Date”), request that each Lender extend such Lender’s Facility Termination Date for an additional one year from the Facility Termination Date then in effect hereunder (the “Existing Termination Date”); provided that in no event shall the Facility Termination Date for any Lender be extended beyond January 23, 2014.

(b) Lender Elections to Extend. Each Lender, acting in its sole and individual discretion, shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than the date that is ten (10) Business Days after receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of the Borrower’s request for an extension (the “Notice Date”) advise the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension (each such Lender that determines to so extend its Facility Termination Date, being an “Extending Lender” and each Lender that determines not to so extend its Facility Termination Date, being a “Non-Extending Lender”). In the event that a Lender that does not so advise the Administrative Agent on or before the Notice Date such Lender shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender. The election of any Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree.

(c) Notification by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company of each Lender’s determination under this Section no later than the date 15 days prior to the applicable Extension Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next preceding Business Day).

(d) Additional Commitment Lenders. If (and only if) the Required Lenders have agreed to extend the Facility Termination Date then in effect hereunder, the Company shall have the right within 90 days after notification by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section 2.28 to replace each Non-Extending Lender with, and add as “Lenders” under this Agreement, one or more Eligible Assignees (each, an “Additional Commitment Lender”) in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 2.26, each of which Additional Commitment Lenders shall have entered into an Assignment Agreement pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lender shall, effective as of the date of the Assignment Agreement, undertake a Commitment (and, if any such Additional Commitment Lender is already a Lender, its Commitment shall be in addition to such Lender’s Commitment hereunder on such date).

(e) Minimum Extension Requirement. If (and only if) the Required Lenders have agreed so to extend the Facility Termination Date then in effect hereunder as described in this Section 2.28, then, effective as of such Extension Date, the Facility Termination Date of each Extending Lender and each Additional Commitment Lender shall be extended to the date falling one year after the Existing Termination Date (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such date shall be the next preceding Business Day) and each Additional Commitment Lender shall thereupon become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that there shall be no change in the Facility Termination Date of any Non-Extending Lender that has not been replaced by an Additional Commitment Lender (each a “Non-Replaced Lender”).

(f) Conditions to Effectiveness of Extensions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the extension of the Facility Termination Date pursuant to this Section shall not be effective with respect to any Lender unless:

(i) no Default or Unmatured Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such extension and after giving effect thereto;

(ii) the representations and warranties contained in Article V or any other Loan Document are true and correct on and as of the date of such extension and after giving effect thereto, as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall have been true and correct on and as of such earlier date;

(iii) since the date of the financial statements most recently available under Section 6.1(a) or the date of the most recent 8-K report filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, no event, circumstance or development shall have occurred that constitutes, has had or could reasonably be expected to constitute or to have a Material Adverse Effect; and

(iv) on the Facility Termination Date of each Non-Replaced Lender, the Borrowers shall prepay any Loans outstanding on such date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.4) to the extent necessary to repay, nonratably, the Loans of such Non-Replaced Lenders and the Commitment of such Non-Replaced Lenders shall be terminated. The Commitment Percentages of the remaining Lenders shall be revised as of such date.

(g) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 8.2 or 11.2 to the contrary.

ARTICLE III.

YIELD PROTECTION; TAXES

3.1 Yield Protection.

(a) If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any Law or any governmental or quasi-governmental policy or directive (whether or not having the force of Law), or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency (any such event, a “Change in Law”):

(i) subjects any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer to any Taxes, or changes the basis of taxation of payments (other than with respect to Excluded Taxes) to any Lender or the LC Issuer in respect of its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein, or

(ii) imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer (other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances), or

(iii) imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer of maintaining its Commitment or making, funding or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans (including, without limitation, any conversion of any Loan denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Euro into a Loan denominated in Euro), or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs, or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer in connection with its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer to make any payment calculated by reference to its Commitment or the amount of Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein held or interest or LC fees received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender or the LC Issuer as the case may be,

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, of making or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans (including, without limitation, any conversion of any Loan denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Euro into a Loan denominated in Euro) or Commitment or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs or to reduce the return received by such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, in connection with such Eurocurrency Loan, or Commitment, Facility LCs or participations therein, then, within 30 days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, the relevant Borrower shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the LC Issuer for such increased cost or reduction in amount received.

(b) Non-U.S. Reserve Costs or Fees With Respect to Loans to Non-U.S. Borrowers. If any Law or any governmental or quasi-governmental policy or directive of any jurisdiction outside of the United States of America or any subdivision thereof (whether or not having the force of Law) imposes or deems applicable any reserve requirement against or fee with respect to assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer, and the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer of making or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs to any Borrower that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (each a “Non-U.S. Borrower”) or its Commitment to any Non-U.S. Borrower or to reduce the return received by such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or the LC Issuer in connection with such Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein to any Non-U.S. Borrower or its Commitment to any Non-U.S. Borrower, then, within 30 days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, such Non-U.S. Borrower shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, for such increased cost or reduction in amount received; provided that such Non-U.S. Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender or the LC Issuer for such non-U.S. reserve costs or fees to the extent that an amount equal to such reserve costs or fees is received by such Lender or LC Issuer as a result of the calculation of the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances pursuant to clause (i)(b) of the definition of Eurocurrency Rate.

3.2 Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations.

If a Lender or the LC Issuer determines the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or the LC Issuer, any Lending Installation of such Lender or the LC Issuer or any entity controlling such Lender or the LC Issuer is increased as a result of a Change (as defined below), then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender or the LC Issuer, the Company shall pay such Lender or the LC Issuer the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital which such Lender or the LC Issuer determines is attributable to this

Agreement, its Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure or its Commitment to make Loans and issue or participate in Facility LCs, as the case may be, hereunder (after taking into account such Lender’s or the LC Issuer’s policies as to capital adequacy). “Change” means (i) any change after the date of this Agreement in the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines or (ii) any other Change in Law which affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or the LC Issuer or any Lending Installation or any entity controlling any Lender or the LC Issuer. “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines” means (i) the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in the United States on the date of this Agreement, including transition rules, and (ii) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the United States implementing the July 1988 report of the Basel Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory Practices Entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurements and Capital Standards,” including transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations adopted prior to the date of this Agreement.

3.3 Availability of Types of Advances.

If any Lender determines that maintenance of its Eurocurrency Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable Law or directive, whether or not having the force of Law, or if the Required Lenders determine that (i) deposits of a type, currency and maturity appropriate to match fund Eurocurrency Advances are not available or (ii) the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining Eurocurrency Advances, then the Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurocurrency Advances and require any affected Eurocurrency Advances to be repaid or converted to Floating Rate Advances at the end of the then current Interest Period for the affected Eurocurrency Advance.

3.4 Funding Indemnification.

If any payment of a Eurocurrency Advance occurs, whether made by a Borrower or by a Lender or other assignee in connection with an assignment pursuant to Section 2.26, on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment, automatic conversion or otherwise, or a Eurocurrency Advance is not made on the date specified by a Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders, the Borrowers will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Eurocurrency Advance.

3.5 Taxes.

(a) All payments by the Borrowers to or for the account of any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes. If any Borrower shall be required by Law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender, the LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.5) such Lender, the LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable Law and (iv) the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof within 30 days after such payment is made.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers hereby agree to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any

payment made hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note or Facility LC Application (“Other Taxes”).

(c) The Borrowers hereby agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) paid by the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer or such Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days of the date the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer or such Lender makes demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6.

(d) Each Lender that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (each a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that it will, on or prior to the Closing Date, (i) deliver to each of the Company and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement from the Company and any other Borrower that is not a Non-U.S. Borrower without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, or (ii) deliver to each of the Company and the Administrative Agent a United States Internal Revenue Form W-8 or W-9, as the case may be, and certify that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Each Non-U.S. Lender further undertakes to deliver to each of the Company and the Administrative Agent (x) renewals or additional copies of such form (or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete, and (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, such additional forms or amendments thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent. All forms or amendments described in the preceding sentence shall certify that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in Law) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form or amendment with respect to it and such Lender advises the Company and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments from the Company and any other Borrower other than a Non-U.S. Borrower without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

(e) For any period during which a Non-U.S. Lender has failed to provide the Company with an appropriate form pursuant to clause (d), above (unless such failure is due to a change in Law, occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.5 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that, should a Non-U.S. Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required under clause (d) above, the Company shall take such steps as such Non-U.S. Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Non-U.S. Lender to recover such Taxes.

(f) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or any Note pursuant to the Law of any relevant jurisdiction shall deliver to the Company (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable Law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. Each Multicurrency Lender which is neither a resident of the United Kingdom nor a bank carrying on a bona fide banking business in the United Kingdom agrees to furnish, on or before the date such Lender makes a Loan to a Borrower in the United Kingdom or denominated in British Pounds Sterling, to the

Administrative Agent, the Company and any relevant Subsidiary Borrower evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Company that such Lender has filed with the United Kingdom Inland Revenue a “Claim on Behalf of a United States Domestic Corporation to Relief from United Kingdom Income Tax on Interest and Royalties Arising in the United Kingdom” or other appropriate form or forms of exemption from withholding tax and received from the Inland Revenue authority that payments to such Lender by the relevant Borrower hereunder may be made gross; provided that such Lender’s failure to furnish such evidence shall not relieve the Company or any Subsidiary Borrower of any of their respective obligations under this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.5.

(g) If the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other governmental authority of the United States or any other country or any political subdivision thereof asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered its exemption from withholding ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax, withholding therefor, or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this subsection, together with all costs and expenses related thereto (including attorneys fees and time charges of attorneys for the Administrative Agent, which attorneys may be employees of the Administrative Agent). The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 3.5(g) shall survive the payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

3.6 Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity.

To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Eurocurrency Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrowers to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 or to avoid the unavailability of Eurocurrency Advances under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not, in the judgment of such Lender, disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5. Such written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Eurocurrency Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Eurocurrency Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type, currency and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Eurocurrency Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by the Borrowers of such written statement. The obligations of the Borrowers under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

3.7 Limitation/Delay in Requests.

Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the LC Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the LC Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided that a Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the LC Issuer pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, notifies such Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the LC Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Company and each of the Borrowers represents and warrants to the Lenders that:

5.1 Existence and Standing.

Each of the Company, the Subsidiary Borrowers and the Significant Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership (in the case of Subsidiary Borrowers or Significant Subsidiaries only) or limited liability company duly and properly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, validly existing and (to the extent such concept applies to such entity) in good standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and has all requisite authority to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.2 Authorization and Validity.

Each Borrower has the power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery by each Borrower of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by proper corporate or other proceedings, and the Loan Documents to which such Borrower is a party constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of such Borrower enforceable against such Borrower in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar Laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

5.3 No Conflict; Government Consent; Other Consents.

Neither the execution and delivery by the Borrowers of the Loan Documents to which they are a party, nor the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will violate (i) any Law, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award binding on any Borrower or (ii) any Borrower’s articles or certificate of incorporation, partnership agreement, certificate of partnership, articles or certificate of organization, by-laws, code or regulations, or operating or other management agreement, as the case may be, or (iii) the provisions of any indenture, instrument or material agreement to which any Borrower is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is bound, or conflict with or constitute a default thereunder, or result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien in, of or on the Property of any Borrower pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, instrument or material agreement. No order, consent, adjudication, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, or other action in respect of any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof or any other Person, which has not been obtained by a Borrower, is required to be obtained by any Borrower in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the borrowings under this Agreement, the payment and performance by such Borrower of the Obligations or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents.

5.4 Financial Statements.

The following consolidated financial statements heretofore delivered to the Lenders were prepared in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles in effect on the date such statements were prepared and fairly present the consolidated financial condition and operations in all material respects of the Company and its Subsidiaries at such date and the consolidated results of their operations for the period then ended (except for the Company’s determination to restate such financial statements: (i) to classify the Pharmaceutical Technologies and Services segment as discontinued operations, (ii) to reallocate to the remaining segments a portion of the corporate costs previously allocated to the Pharmaceutical Technologies and Services segment, and (iii) with respect to the June 30, 2006 audited consolidated financial statement of the Company and its Subsidiaries to reflect the Company’s new segment presentation), subject, in the case of such interim statements, to routine year-end audit adjustments:

(a) June 30, 2006 audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries; and

(b) September 30, 2006 unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries.

5.5 Material Adverse Change.

Since the date of the most recent 10-Q or 8-K report filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, there has been no change in the condition (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.6 Taxes.

The Company, the Subsidiary Borrowers and the Significant Subsidiaries have filed all United States federal tax returns and all other tax returns which are required to be filed and have paid all taxes due pursuant to said returns or pursuant to any assessment received by the Company, the Subsidiary Borrowers or the Significant Subsidiaries, except such taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles and as to which no Lien exists. No tax liens have been filed and no claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Company, the Subsidiary Borrowers and the Significant Subsidiaries in respect of any taxes or other governmental charges are adequate.

5.7 Litigation and Contingent Obligations.

Except as disclosed as material in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 and Form 10-Q for fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2006, there is no litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of any of their officers or of any treasury or finance department employee of the Company serving as the Company’s primary representative relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which seeks to prevent, enjoin or delay the making of any Credit Extensions. As of the date of this Agreement, other than any liability incident to any litigation, arbitration, investigation or proceeding which (i) could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) has been disclosed in accordance with the foregoing sentence of this Section 5.7, the Company has no material Contingent Obligations not provided for or disclosed in the financial statements referred to in Section 5.4.

5.8 Significant Subsidiaries; Subsidiary Borrowers.

(a) Schedule 5.8 contains an accurate list of all Subsidiaries of the Company (other than immaterial or inactive Subsidiaries) and each Subsidiary Borrower as of September 30, 2006, setting forth their respective jurisdictions of organization, the percentage of their respective capital stock or other ownership interests owned by the Company or other Subsidiaries, the true and correct U.S. taxpayer identification number of the Company and each Subsidiary Borrower which is a Subsidiary organized under the Laws of any political subdivision of the U.S. and the true and correct unique identification number of each Subsidiary Borrower that is a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or other ownership interests of such Significant Subsidiaries and Subsidiary Borrowers have been (to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such ownership interests) duly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable, except to the extent that the lack of such status could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company may amend Schedule 5.8 from time to time by delivering to the Administrative Agent an updated list of Subsidiaries, and the Company may designate any Subsidiary thereon which is directly or indirectly 80% or more owned by the Company as a Subsidiary Borrower hereunder so long as (a) the Company provides

the Administrative Agent and the Lenders ten (10) days’ prior notice of such designation, (b) the Company guarantees the obligations of such new Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Guaranty, (c) such new Subsidiary Borrower delivers all corporate or organizational documents and authorizing resolutions and legal opinions reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent together with such documentation as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with “know your customer” and similar compliance requirements, (d) such new Subsidiary Borrower agrees to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Borrowers and the new Subsidiary Borrower execute all agreements and take such other action reasonably requested by Administrative Agent and (e) all applicable Lenders are able (i) under their respective internal policies and guidelines with respect to (A) lending to borrowers located in certain foreign jurisdictions and (B) lending in certain foreign currencies and (ii) under all constitutions, Laws, orders of courts or governmental authorities, to lend to such new Subsidiary Borrower. Schedule 5.8 may be amended to remove any Subsidiary as a Subsidiary Borrower upon (i) written notice by the Company to the Administrative Agent to such effect and (ii) repayment in full of all outstanding Loans of such Subsidiary Borrower, including, without limitation, any payments due to the Lenders under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 and 9.6. Nothing in this Section 5.8 is intended to limit the ability of a Subsidiary Borrower to merge into another Subsidiary Borrower.

(b) Each of the Company and each Subsidiary Borrower organized under the Laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States, a State thereof or the District of Columbia (“Foreign Subsidiary Borrower”) represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that:

(A) Such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is subject to civil and commercial Laws with respect to its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party (collectively as to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, the “Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents”), and the execution, delivery and performance by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents constitute and will constitute private and commercial acts and not public or governmental acts. Neither such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower nor any of its Property has any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized and existing in respect of its obligations under the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents.

(B) The Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents are in proper legal form under the Law of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized and existing for the enforcement thereof against such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Law of such jurisdiction, and to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability, priority or admissibility in evidence of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents. It is not necessary to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability, priority or admissibility in evidence of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents that the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents be filed, registered or recorded with, or executed or notarized before, any court or other authority in the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized and existing or that any registration charge or stamp or similar tax be paid on or in respect of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents or any other document, except for (x) any such filing, registration, recording, execution or notarization as has been made or is not required to be made until the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Document or any other document is sought to be enforced and (y) any charge or tax as has been timely paid.

(C) There is no tax, levy, impost, duty, fee, assessment or other governmental charge, or any deduction or withholding, imposed by any governmental authority in or of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized and existing either (i) on or by virtue of the execution or delivery of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents or (ii) on any payment to be made by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents, except as has been disclosed to the Administrative Agent.

(D) The execution, delivery and performance of the Applicable Foreign Subsidiary Borrower Documents executed by such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower are not, under applicable foreign exchange control regulations of the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower is organized and existing, subject to any notification or authorization except (x) such as have been made or obtained or (y) such as cannot be made or obtained until a later date (provided that any notification or authorization described in clause (y) shall be made or obtained as soon as is reasonably practicable).

5.9 ERISA.

The Unfunded Liabilities of all Single Employer Plans do not in the aggregate exceed $100,000,000. Each Single Employer Plan complies in all material respects with all applicable requirements of Law where the failure to so comply could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Reportable Event has occurred with respect to any Plan where such occurrence could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of the Subsidiary Borrowers or the Significant Subsidiaries have withdrawn from any Plan or initiated steps to do so, and no steps have been taken to reorganize or terminate any Single Employer Plan where in either instance a liability in excess of $100,000,000 could reasonably be expected to result.

5.10 Accuracy of Information.

No information, exhibit or report furnished by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender in connection with the negotiation of, or compliance with, the Loan Documents contained any material misstatement of fact or omitted to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading as of the date thereof; provided, however, that to the extent any such information, exhibits or reports include or incorporate by reference any forward-looking statement (each, a “Forward-Looking Statement”) which reflects the Company’s current view (as of the date such Forward-Looking Statement is made) with respect to future events, prospects, projections or financial performance, such Forward-Looking Statement is subject to uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from such Forward-Looking Statement.

5.11 Regulation U.

Margin stock (as defined in Regulation U) constitutes less than 25% of the value of those assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries which are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge or other restriction hereunder.

5.12 Maintenance of Property.

The Company and the Subsidiary Borrowers and the Significant Subsidiaries maintain all Property and keep such Property in good repair, working order and condition in accordance with customary and prudent business practices for similar businesses, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.

5.13 Insurance.

The Company, each Subsidiary Borrower and each Significant Subsidiary, maintains as part of a self-insurance program or with financially sound and reputable insurance companies insurance on all their Property in such amounts (with such customary deductibles, exclusions and self-insurance) and covering such risks as is consistent with sound business practice.

5.14 Plan Assets; Prohibited Transactions.

The Company is not an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101 of an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) which is subject to Title I of ERISA or any plan (within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code), and neither the execution of this Agreement nor the making of Credit Extensions hereunder gives rise to a prohibited transaction within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

5.15 Environmental Matters.

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company considers the effect of Environmental Laws on the business of the Company and its Subsidiaries, in the course of which it identifies and evaluates potential risks and liabilities accruing to the Company due to Environmental Laws. On the basis of this consideration, the Company has concluded that Environmental Laws cannot reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary has received any notice to the effect that its operations are not in material compliance with any of the requirements of applicable Environmental Laws or are the subject of any federal or state investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to a release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment, which non-compliance or remedial action could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

5.17 Default.

There exists no Default or Unmatured Default under Article VII of this Agreement.

5.18 Compliance with Laws.

The Company, each Subsidiary Borrower and each Significant Subsidiary is in compliance in all material respects with the requirements of all Laws and all orders, writs, injunctions and decrees applicable to it or to its properties, except in such instances in which (a) such requirement of Law, order, writ, injunction or decree is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted

or (b) the failure to comply therewith, either individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

payable without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer or any Lender and the Borrowers will be and become thereby unconditionally obligated, without any further notice, act or demand, to pay to the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds, which funds shall be held in the Facility LC Collateral Account, equal to the difference of (x) the amount of LC Obligations at such time, less (y) the amount on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account at such time which is free and clear of all rights and claims of third parties and has not been applied against the Obligations (such difference, the “Collateral Shortfall Amount”). If any other Default occurs and is continuing, the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) may (a) terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs, or declare the Obligations to be due and payable, or both, whereupon the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Company hereby expressly waives and (b) upon notice to the Borrowers and in addition to the continuing right to demand payment of all amounts payable under this Agreement, make demand on the Borrowers to pay, and the Borrowers will, forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Administrative Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account.

(b) If at any time while any Default is continuing, the Administrative Agent determines that the Collateral Shortfall Amount at such time is greater than zero, the Administrative Agent may make demand on the Borrowers to pay, and the Borrowers will, forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Administrative Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account.

(c) The Administrative Agent may at any time or from time to time after funds are deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account, subject to the reimbursement rights of the LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.21.5, apply such funds to satisfy drawings under Letters of Credit as they occur and LC Obligations, and if any amount remains on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account after all such Letters of Credit have been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the payment of the other Obligations and any other amounts as shall from time to time have become due and payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders or the LC Issuer under the Loan Documents.

(d) At any time while any Default is continuing, neither any Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through any Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account. After all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Aggregate Commitment has been terminated, any funds remaining in the Facility LC Collateral Account shall be promptly returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers or paid to whomever may be legally entitled thereto at such time.

(e) If, within 60 days after acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and the obligation and power of the LC Issuer to issue Facility LCs hereunder as a result of any Default (other than any Default as described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 with respect to the Company) and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the Obligations due shall have been obtained or entered, the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) shall so direct, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Company, rescind and annul such acceleration and/or termination.

8.2 Amendments.

Subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, the Required Lenders and the Borrowers may enter into written agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to the

Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or the Borrowers hereunder or waiving any Default hereunder; provided, however, that no such supplemental written agreement shall, without the consent of all of the Lenders:

(a) Extend the final maturity of any Loan, or extend the expiry date of any Facility LC to a date after the Facility Termination Date or postpone any regularly scheduled payment of principal of any Loan or forgive all or any portion of the principal amount thereof, any Reimbursement Obligation or any accrued interest or accrued fees, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon or any Reimbursement Obligation related thereto.

(b) Change the definition of Required Lenders or Requisite Lenders or any provision that requires the unanimous consent or pro rata treatment of Lenders.

(c) Extend the Facility Termination Date or reduce the amount or extend the payment date for, the mandatory payments required under Section 2.8, or increase the amount of the Aggregate Commitment (other than as contemplated pursuant to Section 2.2) or of the Commitment of any Lender hereunder (other than as contemplated pursuant to Section 2.2) or the commitment to issue Facility LCs, or permit any Borrower to assign its rights under this Agreement.

(d) Amend this Section 8.2.

(e) Release the Company as guarantor of any Advance.

No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Administrative Agent shall be effective without the written consent of the Administrative Agent, and no amendment of any provisions relating to the LC Issuer shall be effective without the written consent of the LC Issuer, and no amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Swingline Loans shall be effective without the written consent of the Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent may waive payment of the fee required under Section 12.1(b)(iv) without obtaining the consent of any other party to this Agreement. The Fee Letter may be amended, and rights and privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Lender declines to consent to a proposed amendment, modification or waiver of the provisions of any Loan Document that requires the consent of 100% of the Lenders which amendment, modification or waiver is approved by the Requisite Lenders, the Company has the right to replace such non-consenting Lender or Lenders in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 2.26. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that such Lender’s Commitment or Facility Termination Date may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender.

8.3 Preservation of Rights

No delay or omission of the Lenders, the LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of a Credit Extension notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of a Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Loan shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing

signed by the Lenders and/or other Persons required pursuant to Section 8.2, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by Law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer and the Lenders until the later of (a) the Facility Termination Date and (b) the date on which the Obligations have been paid in full.

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

In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Federal bankruptcy Laws (or any similar Laws in foreign jurisdictions) or other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loans or LC Obligations shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, as follows:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the LC Issuer and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the LC Issuer and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due to the Lenders, the LC Issuer and the Administrative Agent under this Agreement) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and the LC Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the LC Issuer, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.6 and 9.6.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or the LC Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or LC Issuer to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or LC Issuer in any such proceeding.

ARTICLE XI.

SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS

11.1 Right of Setoff.

If a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the LC Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to setoff and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the LC Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Company or any Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Company or any Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or the LC

Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or the LC Issuer shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Company or any Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the LC Issuer different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, the LC Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the LC Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the LC Issuer agrees to notify the Company and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

11.2 Ratable Payments.

If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations (other than pursuant to Sections 2.28, 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5 hereof or payments of Alternate Currency Loans) greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans, subparticipations in the LC Obligations and Swingline Loans of other Lenders and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that

(a) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and

(b) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (ii) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in LC Obligations or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to a Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Borrower in the amount of such participation.

ARTICLE XII.

BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

12.1 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in

accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time 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 Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b) participations in LC Obligations and in Swingline Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment Agreement, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $5,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

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

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

(A) the consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) a Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

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

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

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

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

(v) No Assignment to Company. No such assignment shall be made to the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment Agreement, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 and 9.6 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender 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 Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Company, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties

hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the LC Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 8.2 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (e) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 and 9.6 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.1 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 11.2 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.5 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Non-U.S. Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.5 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 3.5(d) as though it were a Lender.

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

ARTICLE XIII.

SCHEDULE 1.1

COST RATE SCHEDULE

Cost Rate Formulae

The Cost Rate is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the United Kingdom’s Financial Services Authority (the “Financial Services Authority”) (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank.

On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter), the Administrative Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Cost Rate will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Lending Installation in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Administrative Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Administrative Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that Lending Installation) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Lending Installation.

4.	The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Lending Installation in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Administrative Agent as follows:

(a)

in relation to a Loan denominated in British Pounds Sterling:


AB + C(B – D) + E x 0.01		percent per annum
100 – (A + C)		percent per annum

(b)

in relation to a Loan denominated in any currency other than British Pounds Sterling:


E x 0.01		percent per annum
300		percent per annum

Where:

is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.

is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Applicable Margin and Cost Rate and, if the same would otherwise apply, the additional Overdue Rate/Default rate for the relevant Interest Period on the relevant Loan.

is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

Schedule 1.1

Page 1

is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Administrative Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits.

is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Administrative Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Lenders to the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.

5.	For the purposes of this Cost Rate Schedule:

(a)

“Eligible Liabilities” has the meaning given to it from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

(b)

“Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other Law as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

(c)

“Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate);

(d)

“Special Deposits” has the meanings given to it from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England; and

(e)

“Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.

In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e., 5 percent will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places.

If requested by the Administrative Agent, each Lender with a Lending Installation in the United Kingdom or a Participating Member State shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Administrative Agent the rate of charge payable by that Lender to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees

Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Lender as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Lender for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Lender.

8.	Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:

(a)

the jurisdiction of its Lending Installation; and

(b)

any other information that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

Schedule 1.1

Page 2

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Lender for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Administrative Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Administrative Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Lending Installation in the same jurisdiction as its Lending Installation.

10.

The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects.

11.	The Administrative Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Cost Rate to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above.

12.	Any determination by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Cost Rate Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties.

13.

The Administrative Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Borrowers and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties of any amendments which are required to be made to this Cost Rate Schedule in order to comply with any change in Law or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties.

For the purpose of this Pricing Schedule, the following terms have the following meanings, subject to the final paragraph of this Schedule:

“Level I Status” exists at any date if, on such date, the Company’s Xxxxx’x Rating is A1 or better / the Company’s S&P Rating is A+ or better / the Company’s Fitch Rating is A+ or better.

“Level II Status” exists at any date if, on such date, the Company has not qualified for Level I Status / the Company’s Xxxxx’x Rating is A2 or better / the Company’s S&P Rating is A or better / the Company’s Fitch Rating is A or better.

“Level III Status” exists at any date if, on such date, the Company has not qualified for Level I Status or Level II Status / the Company’s Xxxxx’x Rating is A3 or better / the Company’s S&P Rating is A- or better / the Company’s Fitch Rating is A- or better.

“Level IV Status” exists at any date if, on such date, the Company has not qualified for Level I Status, Level II Status or Level III Status / the Company’s Xxxxx’x Rating is Baa1 or better / the Company’s S&P rating is BBB+ or better / the Company’s Fitch rating is BBB+ or better.

“Level V Status” exists at any date if, on such date, the Company has not qualified for Level I Status, Level II Status, Level III Status or Level IV Status / the Company’s Xxxxx’x Rating is Baa2 or better / the Company’s S&P rating is BBB or better / the Company’s Fitch Rating is BBB or better.

Schedule 4

Page 1

The Applicable Margin shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing table based on the Company’s Status as determined from its then-current Xxxxx’x, S&P and Fitch Ratings. The credit rating in effect on any date for the purposes of this Schedule is that in effect at the close of business on such date. If at any time the Company has no Xxxxx’x Rating, no S&P Rating, or no Fitch Rating, Level VI Status shall exist.

In the event that a split occurs between the three (3) ratings, then the following shall apply:

(a) if two (2) of the three (3) ratings established by or deemed to have been established by S&P, Xxxxx’x or Fitch fall within the same Level, but one (1) rating falls within a different Level, the Applicable Margin shall be based upon the two (2) ratings that fall within the same Level; and

(b) if all three (3) ratings established by or deemed to have been established by S&P, Xxxxx’x or Fitch each fall within a different Level, the Applicable Margin shall be based upon the middle rating of the three (3).

“Xxxxx’x Rating” means, at any time, the rating issued by Xxxxx’x and then in effect with respect to the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt securities without third-party credit enhancement.

“S&P Rating” means, at any time, the rating issued by S&P, and then in effect with respect to the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt securities without third-party credit enhancement.

“Fitch Rating” means, at any time, the rating issued by Fitch and then in effect with respect to the Company’s senior unsecured long-term debt securities without third-party credit enhancement.

“Status” means Level I Status, Level II Status, Level III Status, Level IV Status, Level V Status, or Level VI Status.

WHEREAS, the Credit Agreement provides that certain Subsidiaries of the Guarantor owned 80% or more by the Guarantor may become a party to the Credit Agreement and a Subsidiary Borrower thereunder (each such Subsidiary Borrower, a “Borrower” and collectively, the “Borrowers”).

WHEREAS, as a condition to the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement, the Guarantor is required to guarantee the obligations of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Guarantor has participated in the drafting and negotiation of the Credit Agreement and all other documents, agreements, instruments and certificates furnished by or on behalf of the Borrowers in connection therewith (all of the foregoing being herein collectively referred to as the “Loan Documents”), and the Guarantor has determined that it is in its interest and to its financial benefit that the parties to the Loan Documents enter into the transactions contemplated thereby;

NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged and as further consideration, and as an inducement to the Lenders to enter into the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, the Guarantor agrees with the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as follows:

1.(a) The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably (i) guarantees to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders the prompt payment and performance of the principal of and any and all accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans when due, whether at scheduled maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, all in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, and any and all other Obligations which may be payable by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender or the Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement (including without limitation interest at the Overdue Rate after the maturity of the Loans and interest accruing at the then applicable rate provided in the Credit Agreement after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or like proceeding, relating to a Borrower, whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding) and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders in connection with enforcing any obligations of the Borrowers thereunder, including without limitation the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in accordance with the terms set forth in the Credit Agreement, and (ii) agrees to make prompt payment, on demand, of any and all costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender or the Lenders in connection with enforcing

Exhibit G

Page 1

the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as the “Guaranteed Obligations”)

If any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be paid in full when the same becomes due and payable, the Guarantor undertakes to pay forthwith the same to the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders, as applicable, after notice or demand therefor, regardless of any defense or setoff or counterclaim which any Borrower may have or assert.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained paragraph 1(a), it is the intention of the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders that, in any proceeding involving the bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debts, relief of debtors, dissolution or insolvency or any similar proceeding with respect to the Guarantor or its assets, the amount of the Guarantor’s obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations shall be equal to, but not in excess of, the maximum amount thereof not subject to avoidance or recovery by operation of applicable Laws governing bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debts, relief of debtors, dissolution, insolvency, fraudulent transfers or conveyances or other similar Laws (including, without limitation, 11 U.S.C. Sections 544, 547, 548 and 550 and other “avoidance” provisions of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended or supplemented).

2. The Guarantor hereby unconditionally (a) waives any requirement that the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender or the Lenders, in the event of any default by any Borrower, first make demand upon, or seek to enforce remedies against, any Borrower before demanding payment under or seeking to enforce this Guaranty, (b) covenants that this Guaranty will not be discharged except by complete performance of all obligations of the Borrowers contained in the Loan Documents and the termination of the Commitments, (c) agrees that this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be affected or impaired, without limitation, by any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability in whole or in part of any of the Loan Documents, or any limitation on the liability of the Borrowers thereunder, or any limitation on the method or terms of payment thereunder which may now or hereafter be caused or imposed in any manner whatsoever, (d) waives diligence, presentment and protest with respect to, and any notice of default or dishonor in the payment of any amount at any time payable by any Borrower under or in connection with, any of the Loan Documents, and further waives any requirement of notice of acceptance of, or other formality relating to, this Guaranty and (e) agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations shall include any amounts paid by any Borrower to the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender or the Lenders which may be required to be returned to such Borrower, or to its representative or to a trustee, custodian or receiver for such Borrower.

3. This Guaranty is an absolute and unconditional and irrevocable guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection and is wholly independent and in addition to other rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders and is not contingent upon the pursuit by the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender or the Lenders of any such rights and remedies, such pursuit being hereby waived by the Guarantor.

4. The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be released, affected or impaired by any of the following whether or not undertaken with notice to or consent of the Guarantor: (a) any assignment or transfer, in whole or in part, of the Commitments or the Loans, or any of the Loan Documents although made without notice to or consent of the Guarantor, or (b) any waiver by the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender or the Lenders, or by any other person, of the performance or observance by the Borrowers of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents (neither premature disbursement nor failure to insist on satisfaction of any precondition for any disbursement of the funds under the Credit Agreement shall affect the obligations of the Guarantor), or (c) any indulgence in or the extension of the

Exhibit G

Page 2

time for payment by the Borrowers of any amounts payable under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents, or of the time for performance by the Borrowers of any other obligations under or arising out of any of the Loan Documents, or the extension or renewal thereof, or (d) the modification, amendment or waiver (whether material or otherwise) of any duty, agreement or obligation of the Borrowers set forth in any of the Loan Documents (the modification, amendment or waiver from time to time of the Credit Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to which any Borrower is a party being expressly authorized without further notice to or consent of the Guarantor), or (e) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of any Borrower, or any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, or other similar proceedings, affecting any Borrower or any of its assets, or (f) the release of any security for the obligations of the Borrowers under any of the Loan Documents, or the impairment of or failure to perfect an interest in any such security, or (g) the merger or consolidation of any Borrower with any other person, or (h) the release or discharge of any Borrower from the performance or observance of any agreement, covenant, term or condition contained in any of the Loan Documents, by operation of Law, or (i) any other cause whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing which would release, affect or impair the obligations, covenants, agreements or duties of the Guarantor hereunder.

5. As of the date hereof and as of the date of each disbursement of a Loan made by the Lenders, any Swingline Loan made by the Swingline Lender or any Facility LC made available by the LC Issuer to any Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders: (a) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty are not in contravention of Law and do not give rise to a default under any undertaking to which the Guarantor is a party or by which it or any of its property is bound; (b) this Guaranty is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms; (c) all requisite consents have been obtained and no approval or authorization of or declaration, registration or filing with any governmental authority or any non-governmental person or entity, is required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or as a condition to the legality, validity or enforceability of this Guaranty; (d) there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the best of the Guarantor’s knowledge, threatened against the Guarantor before any court or governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign, which, if determined adversely would have a Material Adverse Effect on the financial condition or business of the Guarantor, and (e) all financial statements and other information furnished by the Guarantor to the Lenders, are true and complete in all respects as of the respective dates thereof.

6. The Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that until the later of (a) irrevocable payment in full of the principal and accrued interest on all of the Loans and the payment and performance of all other Obligations of the Borrowers and (b) the Facility Termination Date under the Credit Agreement, it shall observe and perform each of its agreements and covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement and this Guaranty.

7. If any of the following events shall occur and be continuing: (a) the Guarantor shall fail to pay when due any amount payable under paragraph 1 or 2 hereof; or (b) the Guarantor shall fail to perform or observe any term, condition or covenant contained in this Guaranty, or any representation or warranty made by the Guarantor in this Guaranty or in any certificate or other document or statement furnished at any time hereunder shall prove to have been incorrect or untrue in any material respect on the date as of which made; or (c) the Guarantor becomes insolvent or bankrupt, or shall generally not pay its debts as they become due, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally, or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or there shall be instituted by or against the Guarantor any proceeding or case seeking to adjudicate it bankrupt or insolvent or seeking liquidation, winding up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, protection, relief or protection of it or its debts under any Law

Exhibit G

Page 3

relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief or protection of debtors, or seeks or consents to the appointment of a trustee, custodian or receiver for the Guarantor or for the greater part of the properties of the Guarantor, or a trustee, custodian or receiver is appointed for the Guarantor or for the greater part of its properties, or the Guarantor takes any action to authorize any of the foregoing; or (d) the Guarantor purports to revoke, repudiate or disavow its obligations under this Guaranty or this Guaranty shall cease to be in full force and effect for any reason or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of this Guaranty shall be challenged or denied in any proceeding or otherwise, then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders may, in addition to the remedies provided in the Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, enforce their right either by suit in equity, or by action at Law, or by other appropriate proceedings, whether for the specific performance (to the extent permitted by Law) of any covenant or agreement contained in this Guaranty or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Guaranty and may enforce payment under this Guaranty and any of their other rights available at Law or in equity.

8. The liabilities and obligations of the Guarantor hereunder are joint and several with all other guarantors and until the Guaranteed Obligations have been discharged and paid in full, the Commitments terminated and the passage of any applicable “preference period” under applicable bankruptcy Law, Guarantor waives any right of subrogation to the rights of the Lenders against the Borrowers or any other person obligated for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and any right of reimbursement, contribution or indemnity whatsoever arising or accruing out of any payment which the Guarantor may make pursuant to this Guaranty and any right of recourse to security for the debts and obligations of the Borrowers.

9.(a) This Guaranty is a contract made under, and shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York, including Section 5-1401 and Section 5-1402 of the General Obligation Law of the State of New York, without reference to any other conflicts of Law principles thereof; (b) no failure of the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender or the Lenders in exercising any right, power, or privilege hereunder shall affect such right, power, or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege and the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and not exclusive of any right or remedy which they may otherwise have; (c) the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuer, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telex, facsimile or other electronic transmission, telegram or cable) believed by them to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper person or persons; and (d) all notices and demands hereunder shall be deemed to have been duly given or served if sent in writing to the addresses set forth in Section 13.1 of the Credit Agreement and shall be deemed to be given or made at the times provided in Section 13.1 of the Credit Agreement. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty nor any consent to any departure therefrom shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, and any such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. This Guaranty embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the Guarantor and the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. In case any one or more of the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining obligations of the Guarantor shall not be affected or impaired thereby. This Guaranty shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns.

10. The Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders without set-off or counterclaim, in the currency in which the Guaranteed Obligation in respect of which such payment is made is denominated, at the place of payment specified in the Credit Agreement.

11. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Guarantor, after consulting or having had the opportunity to consult with counsel, knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally waive any right it may have to a trial by jury in any litigation based upon or arising out of this Guaranty or any related instrument or agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty or any course of conduct, dealing, statements (whether oral or written) or actions of either of them. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Guarantor shall seek to consolidate, by counterclaim or otherwise, any such action in which a jury trial has been waived with any other action in which a jury trial cannot be or has not been waived. These provisions shall not be deemed to have been modified in any respect or relinquished by either the Administrative Agent or the Guarantor except by a written instrument executed by both of them.
