(c) Each Revolving Credit Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Revolving Credit Loans made by the Banks ratably in accordance with their Commitment Percentages; provided, however, that the failure of any Bank to make any Revolving Credit Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Bank of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make any Revolving Credit Loan required to be made by such other Bank). The Revolving Credit Loans comprising any Eurodollar Borrowing shall be in a minimum aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, and the Revolving Credit Loans comprising any Base Rate Borrowing shall be in a minimum aggregate principal amount of $250,000 or a whole multiple of $50,000 in excess thereof (or an aggregate principal amount equal to the remaining balance of the available Commitments). Each Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans shall be comprised entirely of Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans, as the Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.1.

(d) In order to request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or notify by telephone and promptly confirm by hand delivery or telecopy) to the Agent the information requested by the form of Borrowing Request attached as Exhibit A hereto (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, three Business Days before a proposed Borrowing and (ii) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, on the day of a proposed Borrowing. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall in each case specify (x) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing or a Base Rate Borrowing; (y) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and the amount thereof; and (z) if such Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Agent shall promptly advise the Banks of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.1 and of each Bank’s portion of the requested Borrowing.

2.2 Swing Line Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Bank may in its discretion make swing line loans (the “Swing Line Loans”) to the Borrower from time to time during the Commitment Period in an aggregate outstanding principal amount up to the amount of the Swing Line Commitment as requested by the Borrower and agreed to by the Swing Line Bank; provided, that, no Swing Line Loan shall be made if, after giving effect to the making of such Swing Line Loan and the simultaneous application of the proceeds thereof (i) any Bank’s Exposure at such time shall exceed such Bank’s Commitment at such time or (ii) the Total Exposure at such time shall exceed the Total Commitment at such time. Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower may during the Commitment Period borrow, repay and reborrow under the Swing Line Commitment, subject to and in accordance with the terms and limitations hereof. Each Swing Line Loan shall be in an original principal amount of $100,000 or in integral multiples of $50,000 in excess thereof. The interest rate for a Swing Line Loan shall be such rate that is mutually agreed to by the Borrower and the Swing Line Bank in writing at the time such Swing Line Loan is made) or, if the Cash Management Agreements (as defined in clause (g) below) are in effect, at the Eurodollar based rate plus the Applicable Margin (determined in accordance with the Cash Management Agreements). Interest on the Swing Line Loans shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.6 hereof. All Swing Line Loans shall be repaid on the Termination Date and as otherwise provided in this Section 2.2.

(b) The Borrower may request a Swing Line Loan to be made on any Business Day. Each request for a Swing Line Loan shall be in the form of a Borrowing Request (or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing, it being understood that the Swing Line Bank may rely on the authority of any individual making such telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation) and received by the Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (Philadelphia time) on the Business Day such Swing Line Loan is to be made (or such later time as the Swing Line Bank shall agree), specifying in each case (i) the amount to be borrowed and (ii) the requested borrowing date. The request for such Swing Line Loan shall be irrevocable. Provided that all applicable conditions precedent contained herein have been satisfied, the Swing Line Bank shall, not later than 4:00 p.m., Philadelphia time, on the date specified in the Borrower’s request for such Swing Line Loan, make such Swing Line Loan by crediting the Borrower’s deposit account with the Swing Line Bank.

(c) The obligation of the Borrower to repay the Swing Line Loans shall be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower dated the date hereof, payable to the order of the Swing Line Bank in the principal amount of the Swing Line Commitment and substantially in the form of Exhibit C (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Swing Line Note”).

(d) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the Swing Line Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (but in any event subject to Section 2.13, to the extent applicable), upon prior written, facsimile or telephonic notice to the Swing Line Bank given no later than 12:00 p.m. (noon), Philadelphia time, on the date of any proposed prepayment (each such date, a “Swing Line Prepayment Date”). Each notice of prepayment shall specify the amount to be prepaid (which, except in the case of payment in full, shall be in the principal amount of $100,000 or in integral multiples of $50,000 in excess thereof), shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such amount on such date, with accrued interest thereon and any amounts owed under Section 2.13 hereof. Unless the Borrower shall have notified the Agent prior to 12:00 p.m. (noon), Philadelphia time, that the Borrower intends to prepay such Swing Line Loan with funds other than the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Loan or shall have requested in accordance with subsection 2.1(d) hereof the making of a Eurodollar Loan to make such prepayment, the Borrower shall be deemed to have given notice to the Agent requesting the Banks to make Revolving Credit Loans which shall earn interest at the Base Rate in effect on such Swing Line Prepayment Date in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Swing Line Loan plus interest thereon, and subject to satisfaction or waiver of the conditions specified in Section 4.2, the Banks shall, on such Swing Line Prepayment Date, make Revolving Credit Loans, which shall earn interest at the Base Rate, in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Swing Line Loan plus accrued interest thereon, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by the Agent to repay the Swing Line Bank for such Swing Line Loan plus accrued interest thereon; provided, that if for any reason the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans are not received by the Swing Line Bank on such Swing Line Prepayment Date in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Swing Line Loans being prepaid plus accrued interest, the Borrower shall reimburse the Swing Line Bank on the Business Day immediately following such Swing Line Prepayment Date, in same day funds, in an amount equal to the excess of the amount of such Swing Line Loan and accrued interest thereon over the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Loans, if any, received.

(e) In the event the Commitments are terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, the Swing Line Commitment shall also be terminated automatically. In the event the Borrower reduces the Total Commitment to less than the Swing Line Commitment, the Swing Line Commitment shall immediately be reduced to an amount equal to the Total Commitment. In the event the Borrower reduces the Total Commitment to less than the outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loans, the Borrower shall immediately repay the amount by which the outstanding Swing Line Loans exceeds the Swing Line Commitment as so reduced plus accrued interest thereon and any amounts owed under Section 2.13 hereof.

(f) In the event that the Borrower shall fail to repay the Swing Line Bank (i) the outstanding Swing Line Loans together with all accrued interest thereon on the Termination Date, (ii) the amount of any Swing Line Loan due on any Swing Line Prepayment Date, or (iii) any amounts required under subsection 2.2(e), the Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the unpaid amount of such Swing Line Loan (including accrued interest thereon) and of such Bank’s respective participation therein in an amount equal to such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of such amount. Each Bank shall make available to the Agent for payment to the Swing Line Bank an amount equal to its respective participation therein (including, without limitation, its pro rata share of accrued but unpaid interest thereon, provided that the interest rate payable by the Banks shall not exceed the Base Rate), in same day funds, at the office of the Agent specified in such notice. If such notice is delivered by the Agent by 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, each Bank shall make funds available to the Agent on that Business Day. If such notice is delivered after 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, each Bank shall make funds available to the Agent on the next Business Day. In the event that any Bank fails to make available to the Agent the amount of such Bank’s participation in such unpaid amount as provided herein, the Swing Line Bank shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Bank together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day during the period between the Business Day such payment is due in accordance with the terms of this subsection 2.2(f) and the date on which any Bank makes available its participation in such unpaid amount. The failure of any Bank to make available to the Agent its Commitment Percentage of any such unpaid amount shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligations hereunder to make available to the Agent its Commitment Percentage of such unpaid amount on the Business Day such payment is due in accordance with the terms of this subsection 2.2(f). The Agent shall promptly distribute to each Bank which has paid all amounts payable by it under this subsection 2.2(f) with respect to the unpaid amount of any Swing Line Loan, such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of all payments received by the Agent from the Borrower in repayment of such Swing Line Loan when such payments are received. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Bank which has paid all amounts payable by it under this Section 2.2(f) shall have a direct right to repayment of such amounts from the Borrower subject to the procedures for repaying Banks set forth in this Section 2.2(f) and the provisions of Section 9.8.

(g) In addition to making Swing Line Loans pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.2, without the requirement for a specific request from the Borrower pursuant to subsection 2.2(b), the Swing Line Bank may make Swing Line Loans to the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of any agreements between the Borrower and the Swing Line Bank relating to the Borrower’s deposit, sweep and other accounts at the Swing Line Bank and related arrangements and agreements regarding the management and investment of the Borrower’s cash assets as in effect from time to time (the “Cash Management Agreements”) to the extent of the daily aggregate net negative balance in the Borrower’s accounts which are subject to the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements. Swing Line Loans made pursuant to this subsection 2.2(g) in accordance with the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements shall (i) be subject to the limitations as to aggregate amount set forth in subsection 2.2(a), (ii) not be subject to the limitations as to individual amount set forth in subsection 2.2(a), (iii) be payable by the Borrower, both as to principal and interest, at the times set forth in the Cash Management Agreements (but in no event later than the Termination Date), (iv) not be made at any time after the Swing Line Bank has notice of the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, (v) if not repaid by the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements, be subject to each Bank’s obligation to purchase participating interests therein pursuant to subsection 2.2(f), and (vi) except as provided in the foregoing subsections (i) through (v), be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Section 2.2.

(h) Each Bank shall, ratably in accordance with its Commitment Percentage, indemnify the Swing Line Bank, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting its obligation to do so) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except any of the foregoing that results from the indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 2.2 or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

2.3 General Provisions Regarding Loans. (a) Subject to subsection 2.3(b), each Bank shall make each Revolving Credit Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Agent in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, not later than 1:00 p.m., Philadelphia time, and the Agent shall by 3:00 p.m., Philadelphia time, credit the amounts so received to the general deposit account of the Borrower with the Agent or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Banks. Loans shall be made by the Banks pro rata in accordance with Section 2.14. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Bank prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Bank will not make available to the Agent such Bank’s portion of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Bank has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with this paragraph (a) and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Bank shall not have made such portion available to the Agent, such Bank and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Revolving Credit Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Bank, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, provided, that if such Bank shall not pay such amount within three Business Days after the date of such Borrowing, the interest rate on such overdue amount shall, at the expiration of such three Business Day period, be the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans comprising such Borrowing. If such Bank shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Bank’s Revolving Credit Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

(b) The Borrower may refinance all or any part of any Borrowing with any other Borrowing, subject to the conditions and limitations set forth herein and elsewhere in this Agreement. Any Borrowing or part thereof so refinanced shall be deemed to be repaid in accordance with subsection 2.1(b) with the proceeds of a new Borrowing hereunder and the proceeds of the new Borrowing, to the extent they do not exceed the principal amount of the Borrowing being refinanced, shall not be paid by the Banks to the Agent or by the Agent to the Borrower; provided, however, that (i) if the principal amount extended by a Bank in a refinancing is greater than the principal amount extended by such Bank in the Borrowing being refinanced, then such Bank shall pay such difference to the Agent for distribution to the Banks described in (ii) below, (ii) if the principal amount extended by a Bank in the Borrowing being refinanced is greater than the principal amount agreed to be extended by such Bank in the refinancing, the Agent shall return the difference to such Bank out of amounts received pursuant to (i) above, and (iii) to the extent any Bank fails to pay the Agent amounts due from it pursuant to (i) above, any Revolving Credit Loan or portion thereof being refinanced with such amounts shall not be deemed repaid in accordance with subsection 2.1(b) and shall be payable by the Borrower without prejudice to the Borrower’s rights against any such Bank.

(c) Each Bank may at its option fulfill its commitment hereunder with respect to any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Bank to make such Revolving Credit Loan; provided, however, that (A) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Revolving Credit Loan in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the applicable Note and (B) the Borrower shall not be liable for increased costs under Sections 2.11 or 2.12 to the extent that (x) such costs could be avoided by the use of a different branch or Affiliate to make Eurodollar Loans and (y) such use would not, in the judgment of such Bank, entail any significant additional expense for which such Bank shall not be indemnified hereunder or otherwise be disadvantageous to it; and

(d) All Borrowings, conversions and continuations of Revolving Credit Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections that, after giving effect thereto, (A) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans comprising each Tranche of Eurodollar Loans shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and (B) the Borrower shall not have outstanding at any one time more than in the aggregate four (4) separate Tranches of Eurodollar Loans.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Termination Date.

2.4 Fees. (a) The Borrower shall pay to each Bank, through the Agent, on the Closing Date a closing fee (the “Closing Fee”) equal to fifteen (15) basis points on the amount of such Bank’s initial Commitment.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Bank, through the Agent, on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 and on the date on which the Commitment of such Bank shall be terminated as provided herein, a facility fee (a “Facility Fee”) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Facility Fee Percentage on the average daily amount of the Commitment of such Bank during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Closing Date or ending with the Termination Date or any date on which the Commitment of such Bank shall be terminated). All Facility Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. The Facility Fee due to each Bank shall commence to accrue on the date hereof, and shall cease to accrue on the earlier of the Termination Date and the termination of the Commitment of such Bank as provided herein.

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for its own account administrative and other fees at the times and in the amounts as are set forth in the Fee Letter (collectively, the “Administrative Fees”).

(d) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Banks. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

2.5 Letter of Credit Subfacility.

(a) During the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, the Borrower may request the issuance of standby letters of credit (each, a “Letter of Credit”) to support obligations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries which finance the working capital and business needs of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries by delivering to the Issuing Bank a completed Application for letters of credit in such form and with such other certificates, documents and information as the Issuing Bank may specify from time to time by no later than 12:00 noon, Philadelphia time, at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by such Issuing Bank) in advance of the proposed date of issuance. Each application for issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be accompanied by an issuance fee payable based upon the Issuing Bank’s standard schedule of fees charged for issuing letters of credit as such may be amended from time to time. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Banks set forth in this Section, the Issuing Bank will issue a Letter of Credit, provided, that each Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date no later than the earlier of (A) twelve (12) months from the date of issuance, and (B) except as provided in subsection 2.5(m), the Termination Date, and provided further, that in no event shall the amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations at any one time exceed the lesser of (i) the L/C Sublimit and (ii) the Total Commitment minus the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans at such time. The Issuing Bank shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Bank or any Letter of Credit Participant to exceed any limits imposed by any applicable Requirement of Law. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section, the Banks and the Borrower hereby agree that the Issuing Bank may issue upon the Borrower’s request, one or more Letter(s) of Credit which by its or their terms may be extended for additional periods of up to one year each provided that (i) the initial expiration date (or any subsequent expiration date) of each such Letter of Credit is not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Termination Date and (ii) the renewal of such Letter(s) of Credit, at the Issuing Bank’s discretion, shall be available upon written request from the Borrower to the Issuing Bank at least thirty (30) days (or such other time period as agreed by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank) before the date upon which notice of renewal is otherwise required.

(b) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Banks a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to the amount of the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Loans that are Eurodollar Loans in effect from time to time multiplied by the daily average of the undrawn face amount of each Letter of Credit (including Existing Letters of Credit) during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing on the Closing Date or ending on the Termination Date), and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 following the issuance of each such Letter of Credit and on the expiration thereof. The Borrower shall also pay to the Issuing Bank the Issuing Bank’s then in effect customary fees plus a fronting fee of five basis points (0.05%) on the undrawn face amount of each such Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, and administrative expenses payable with respect to each Letter of Credit issued or renewed by it as the Issuing Bank may generally charge from time to time. Once paid, all of the above fees shall be nonrefundable under all circumstances. The Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the Issuing Bank and the Banks all fees and commissions received by the Agent for their respective accounts pursuant to this subsection (b). All periodic interest, fees and commissions shall be calculated on the basis of the actual days elapsed in a 360 day year.

(c)(i) The Issuing Bank irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each Letter of Credit Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each Letter of Credit Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from such Issuing Bank, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such Letter of Credit Participant’s own account and risk, an undivided interest equal to such Letter of Credit Participant’s Commitment Percentage in the Issuing Bank’s obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by the Issuing Bank thereunder. Each Letter of Credit Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Issuing Bank that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank for which the Issuing Bank is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letter of Credit Participant shall pay to the Issuing Bank upon demand at the Issuing Bank’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such Letter of Credit Participant’s share (based on its Commitment Percentage) of the amount of such draft or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed. Any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with a Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for the Issuing Bank any resulting liability to any Bank.

(ii) If any amount required to be paid by any Letter of Credit Participant to the Issuing Bank pursuant to subsection 2.5(c)(i) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit is not paid to the Issuing Bank on the date such payment is due from such Letter of Credit Participant, such Letter of Credit Participant shall pay to the Issuing Bank on demand an amount equal to the product of (A) of such amount, times (B) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate, as quoted by the Issuing Bank, during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Bank, times (C) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Issuing Bank submitted to any Letter of Credit Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(iii) Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Bank has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Letter of Credit Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with subsection 2.5(c)(i), the Issuing Bank receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including by way of set-off or proceeds of collateral applied thereto by the Issuing Bank), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Issuing Bank will distribute to such Letter of Credit Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by the Issuing Bank shall be required to be returned by the Issuing Bank, such Letter of Credit Participant shall return to the Issuing Bank the portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Bank to it.

(d) (i) The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Issuing Bank in respect of a Letter of Credit on each date on which a draft presented under such Letter of Credit is paid by the Issuing Bank for the amount of (A) such draft so paid and (B) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with such payment. Each such payment shall be made to the Issuing Bank in immediately available funds.

(ii) Interest shall be payable on any and all amounts remaining unpaid by the Borrower under this subsection from the date such amounts become payable (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) until payment in full at the per annum rate of the then applicable Default Rate for Revolving Credit Loans which are Base Rate Loans and shall be payable on demand by such Issuing Bank.

(e) (i) The Borrower also agrees with the Issuing Bank that the Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under subsection 2.5(d)(i) shall not be affected by, among other things (A) the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, provided, that reliance upon such documents by the Issuing Bank shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank or (B) any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or (C) any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee.

(ii) The Issuing Bank 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 Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions caused by the Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(iii) The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Bank to the Borrower.

(f) If any draft shall be presented for payment to the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of the Issuing Bank to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit and any other obligation expressly imposed by the provisions of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce Publication at the time such Letter of Credit was issued (the “UCP Publication”) other than Article 48(g) thereof or any successor provision thereto, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

(g) To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.

(h) The Borrower agrees to be bound by the terms of each Application and the Issuing Bank’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from the Borrower’s own. It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Issuing Bank shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following the Borrower’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto. To the extent not otherwise inconsistent with this Agreement, the provisions of the UCP Publication are hereby made a part of this Agreement with respect to the obligations in connection with each Letter of Credit.

(i) Each Bank’s payment obligation under subsection 2.5(c) and the Reimbursement Obligations shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any circumstances, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.5 under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

(i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Bank may have against the Issuing Bank, any Loan Party or any other Person for any reason whatsoever;

(ii) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit;

(iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which any Loan Party or any Bank may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Bank or any Bank or any other Person or, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transaction (including any underlying transaction between any Loan Party and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was procured);

(iv) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect even if the Issuing Bank has been notified thereof;

(v) payment by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, provided that such payment shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank;

(vi) any adverse change in the business, operations, properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries;

(vii) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any Loan Party;

(viii) the occurrence or continuance of an insolvency proceeding with respect to any Loan Party;

(ix) the fact that an Event of Default or a Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

(x) the fact that the Termination Date shall have passed or this Agreement or the Commitments hereunder shall have been terminated; and

(xi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(j) In addition to amounts payable as provided in Section 9.5, the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Issuing Bank and the Banks from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel) which the Issuing Bank may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit, other than as a result of (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (B) subject to the following clause (ii), the wrongful dishonor by the Issuing Bank of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit, or (ii) the failure of the Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under any such Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Governmental Acts”).

(k) As among the Borrower and the Issuing Bank, the Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for: (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if such Issuing Bank shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any Loan Party against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, facsimile, cable, telex or otherwise; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank, including any Governmental Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the Issuing Bank’s rights or powers hereunder.

In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Bank under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not create any liability of the Issuing Bank to the Borrower or any Bank.

(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be considered Letters of Credit issued hereunder.

(m) If the expiration date for any Letter of Credit requested by the Borrower to be issued, or extended or renewed, pursuant to subsection 2.5(a) is later than the Termination Date, the Issuing Bank may nonetheless issue, or extend or renew, such Letter of Credit notwithstanding that such expiration date is later than the Termination Date, provided that Borrower shall on or before the day five (5) days prior to the Termination Date deposit with the Agent as collateral for its obligations under the Loan Documents, cash in an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Coverage Requirement with respect to each such Letter of Credit which remains outstanding on such date, which cash shall be deposited with, pledged to and held by the Agent for the benefit of the Banks in the same manner as provided in subsection 7.2(a).

2.6 Interest on Revolving Credit Loans. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.7, each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.7, each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Loan plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.7, interest on each Swing Line Loan shall be payable at the rate (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) provided in Section 2.5;

(d) Interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable to such Loan; provided that, (i) interest accruing on overdue amounts pursuant to Section 2.7 shall be payable on demand as provided in such Section and (ii) if the Cash Management Agreements are in effect, interest on the Swing Line Loans shall be payable as provided in subsection 2.2(g). Except as provided in subsection 2.2(g), interest on each Swing Line Loan shall be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date and the day such Swing Line Loan becomes due, including the Termination Date. The Eurodollar Rate and the Base Rate shall be determined by the Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent error.

2.7 Default Rate; Additional Interest; Alternate Rate of Interest. (a) To the extent not contrary to any Requirement of Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, any principal, past due interest, fee or other amount outstanding hereunder shall bear interest for each day thereafter until paid in full (after as well as before judgment) at a rate per annum which shall be equal to two percent (2%) above the Base Rate (but in no event shall any such rate exceed the maximum rate permitted by any Requirement of Law) (the “Default Rate”). The Borrower acknowledges that such increased interest rate reflects, among other things, the fact that such loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Banks are entitled to additional compensation for such risk.

(b) In the event, and on each occasion, that on the day two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan, the Agent shall have determined (which determination absent manifest error shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that dollar deposits in the principal amount of such Eurodollar Loan are not generally available in the London Interbank Market, or that the rate at which such dollar deposits are being offered will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Banks of making or maintaining the principal amount of such Eurodollar Loan during such Interest Period, or that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate, the Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written, telegraphic or telephonic notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Banks, and any request by the Borrower for a Eurodollar Loan or for conversion to or maintenance of a Eurodollar Loan pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed a request for a Base Rate Loan. After such notice shall have been given and until the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, each request for a Eurodollar Loan shall be deemed to be a request for a Base Rate Loan. Each determination by the Agent hereunder shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

2.8 Termination, Reduction and Increase of Commitments; Additional Banks. (a) The Commitments shall be automatically terminated on the Termination Date.

(b) Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, upon at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable written or telecopy notice to the Agent, the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time permanently reduce, the Total Commitment. Each partial reduction of the Total Commitment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 or in whole multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and no such termination or reduction shall be made which would reduce the Total Commitment to an amount less than the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans.

(c) Each reduction in the Total Commitment hereunder shall be made ratably among the Banks in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. In connection with any reduction of the Total Commitment, the Borrower shall make any prepayment required under subsection 2.9(b).

(d) (i) At any time prior to sixty (60) days prior to the Termination Date, the Borrower may request an increase in the Total Commitment by sending a written notice thereof to the Agent. Such notice shall specify the total amount of the increase requested by the Borrower (the “Requested Increase”); provided, that (A) the amount of each Requested Increase shall be at least $10,000,000 and (B) the maximum aggregate increase of the Total Commitment shall be $50,000,000. The Agent shall within ten (10) days of receipt of such notice advise the Borrower as to the fees, interest rates and any other terms which would be applicable to such Requested Increase and when (and if) the Agent and the Borrower shall have reached agreement with respect thereto, the Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Banks. Each Bank shall respond in writing to the Agent (with a copy simultaneously sent to the Borrower), within thirty (30) days of receipt of a Requested Increase (or such shorter period as the Agent and the Borrower shall agree), stating the maximum amount, if any, by which such Bank is willing to increase its Commitment (the “Offered Amount”). Subject to clause (iv) of this subsection 2.8(d), (A) if the total of the Offered Amount for all of the Banks is greater than the Requested Increase, the Requested Increase shall be allocated amongst the offering Banks (I) as determined by the Agent or (II) otherwise, ratably in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages as in effect immediately prior any such increase, and to the extent that the aggregate amount of such allocations is less than the Requested Increase, such difference shall be allocated amongst the Banks whose Offered Amounts exceeded their allocation in proportion to their respective Offered Amounts and (B) if the total of the Offered Amount for all of the Banks is equal to or less than the Requested Increase, (I) each Bank’s Commitment shall increase by its Offered Amount and (II) the Borrower, with the consent of the Agent, may offer the difference, if any, to one or more new lenders (each a “Proposed New Bank”). If the Borrower requests that a Proposed New Bank join this Agreement and provide a Commitment hereunder, the Borrower shall, at least five (5) days prior to the date on which such Proposed New Bank proposes to join this Agreement, notify the Agent of the name of the Proposed New Bank and the amount of its proposed Commitment. The minimum Commitment of any Proposed New Bank shall be $5,000,000. If the Agent consents to a Proposed New Bank joining this Agreement (which consent shall not, except as provided in clause (iv) below, be unreasonably withheld), such Proposed New Bank shall join this Agreement pursuant to the provisions of subsection 9.6(f).

(ii) Any Bank that increases its Commitment shall execute and deliver an Increased Commitment and Acceptance prior to the effective date of such increase. Any Proposed New Bank shall deliver a duly completed New Bank Joinder to the Agent at least five (5) days prior to the effective date of such Proposed New Bank’s joinder hereto. Simultaneously with the execution and delivery of a New Bank Joinder or an Increased Commitment and Acceptance, the Borrower shall execute and deliver a new Revolving Credit Note for the applicable Revolving Credit Bank. Nothing herein shall obligate the Agent or any Bank to increase the amount of its Commitment unless it elects in its sole discretion to do so in accordance with the provision of this subsection 2.8(d).

(iii) Following any increase in the Total Commitment pursuant to this Section, the Agent shall send to the Banks and the Borrower a revised Schedule I setting forth the new Commitments of the Banks. Such schedule shall replace the existing Schedule I if no Bank objects thereto (based solely on a numerical error) within 10 days of its receipt thereof.

(iv) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, (A) the Borrower may not request an increase in the Total Commitment if at the time of such request a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (B) no increase in the Total Commitment (including by way of the addition of a Proposed New Bank) shall become effective if on the date that such increase would become effective, a Default or Event of Default shall then exist or occur as a result thereof.

2.9 Optional and Mandatory Prepayments of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (but in any event subject to Section 2.13), upon prior written, telecopy or telephonic notice to the Agent given no later than 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, one Business Day before any proposed prepayment; provided, however, that each such partial prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be in the principal amount of at least $1,000,000 or in whole multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof and each such partial prepayment of a Base Rate Borrowing shall be in the principal amount of at least $250,000 or in whole multiples of $50,000 in excess thereof.

(b) On the date of any termination or reduction of the Total Commitment pursuant to Section 2.8, the Borrower shall pay or prepay so much of the Borrowings as shall be necessary in order that the Total Exposure at such time will not exceed the Total Commitment after giving effect to such termination or reduction.

(c) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Borrowing (or portion thereof) by the amount stated therein. All prepayments under this Section on other than Base Rate Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of prepayment and any amounts owed under Section 2.13 hereof.

2.10 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Bank to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the commitment of such Bank hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as such and convert or refinance Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be cancelled and (b) such Bank’s Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Revolving Credit Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to such Bank such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.13.

2.11 Requirements of Law. (a) In the event that any Change in Law shall:

(i) subject any Bank to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Note or Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Bank in respect thereof (except for Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 2.12 and the imposition of, or any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by any Bank);

(ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Bank (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate); or

(iii) impose on any Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loan made by such Bank;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Bank of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Bank, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Bank, the Borrower will pay to such Bank, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided, that the Borrower shall not be liable for any such amounts incurred or suffered by such Bank more than 180 days prior to the date of such Bank’s notification to the Borrower. If any Bank becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall as promptly as practicable notify the Borrower, through the Agent, of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate explaining and detailing any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection submitted by such Bank, through the Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of clearly demonstrable error. If any such amount paid by the Borrower to such Bank is subsequently determined not to have been due and is refunded to such Bank, such Bank will reimburse the Borrower for amounts paid in respect of such refunded amount. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b) If any Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Bank or any lending office of such Bank or such Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitment of such Bank or the Loans made by, or participations in Swing Loans held by, such Bank, to a level below that which such Bank or such Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Bank’s policies and the policies of such Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Bank, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank or such Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. If any Bank becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection, it shall as promptly as practicable notify the Borrower, through the Agent, of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate explaining and detailing any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection submitted by such Bank, trough the Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of clearly demonstrable error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(c) Each Bank agrees that it will use reasonable efforts in order to avoid or to minimize, as the case may be, the payment by the Borrower of any additional amount under subsections 2.11(a) and (b); provided, however, that no Bank shall be obligated to incur any expense, cost or other amount in connection with utilizing such reasonable efforts. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.11, no Bank shall apply the provisions of subsections 2.11(a) or (b) hereof with respect to the Borrower if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of the Bank exercising its rights hereunder to apply the provisions similar to those of this Section 2.11 to other borrowers in substantially similar circumstances under substantially comparable provisions of other credit agreements.

2.12 Taxes. (a) All payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto (other than Excluded Taxes) (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions and withholdings being hereinafter called “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by Law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any Note, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Agent and each Bank receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant tax authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Law. As used herein, the term “Excluded Taxes” shall mean, with respect to the Agent, any Bank or any other recipient of any payment to be made by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder, (i) taxes imposed on or measured by its overall net income (however denominated), and franchise taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income taxes), by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the Laws of which such recipient is organized or in which its principal office is located or, in the case of any Bank, in which its applicable lending office is located, (ii) any branch profits taxes imposed by the United States of America or any similar tax imposed by any other jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located and (iii) in the case of a Foreign Bank, any withholding tax (including under FATCA) that is imposed on amounts payable to such Foreign Bank at the time such Foreign Bank becomes a party hereto (or designates a new lending office), except to the extent that such Foreign Bank (or its assignor, if any) was entitled, at the time of designation of a new lending office (or assignment), to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such withholding tax pursuant to Section 2.12.

(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges, or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder, under the Notes or under any other Loan Document or from the execution, delivery, or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, any Note or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and each Bank for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this subsection) paid by the Agent or any Bank and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date the Agent or a Bank makes written demand therefor accompanied by a certificate explaining and detailing any such Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Agent or such Bank which shall be conclusive in the absence of demonstrable error.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of any Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower, if available, the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent and each Bank, at its address referred to herein, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(e) If as a result of a payment by the Borrower of Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to subsections 2.12(a), (b) or (c) the Agent or a Bank receives a tax benefit or tax savings such as by receiving a credit against, refund of, or reduction in Taxes or Other Taxes which the Agent or such Bank would not have received but for the payment by the Borrower of such Taxes or Other Taxes, then the Agent or such Bank shall promptly pay to the Borrower the amount of such credit, refund, reduction or any other similar item. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in subsections 2.12(a) through (d) shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder and under any instrument delivered hereunder.

(f) Each Foreign Bank agrees that it will deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the Closing Date in the case of each initial Bank and on or prior to the effective date of the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which it becomes a Bank in the case of each other Bank and on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this subsection (f), and from time to time, if requested by the Borrower or the Agent, two completed originals of each of the following, as applicable; (A) Forms W-8ECI (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding tax because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business), W-8BEN (claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under an income tax treaty) and/or W-8IMY (together with appropriate forms, certifications and supporting statements) or any successor forms, (B) in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming exemption under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, Form W-8BEN (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the portfolio interest exemption) or any successor form and a certificate in form and substance acceptable to the Borrower and the Agent. Such Bank shall certify, in the case of a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8IMY, that it is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes. If a payment made to a Foreign Bank would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Bank shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including any notice described in Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Agent, as the case may be, to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Bank has or has not complied with such Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. If any form provided by a Foreign Bank at the time such Bank first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from “Taxes” as defined in subsection 2.12(a). Each Bank shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, with respect to Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority other than the United States of America, similar forms, if available (or the information that would be contained in similar forms if such forms were available), to the forms which are required to be provided under this subsection with respect to Taxes of the United States of America.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing subsections 2.12(a) through (e), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amounts to any Bank in respect of United States withholding or backup withholding tax pursuant to such subsections if (i) the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Bank to comply with the requirements of subsection 2.12(f) (other than by reason of a change in Law) or (ii) such Bank shall not have furnished the Borrower with such forms and documentation described in subsection 2.12(f) and shall not have taken such other steps as reasonably may be available to it under applicable tax laws and any applicable tax treaty or convention to obtain an exemption from, or reduction (to the lowest applicable rate) of, such United States withholding tax.

2.13 Indemnity. (a) The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Bank and to hold each Bank harmless from any loss or expense which such Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in payment when due of the principal amount of or interest on any Eurodollar Loan or Swing Line Loan, (b) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans or Swing Line Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (c) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (d) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans or Swing Line Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto (or, in the case of a Swing Line Loan, on the date such Swing Line Loan is due), including, without limitation, in each case, any such loss or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by it or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. A certificate as to any amounts (including a calculation thereof) that a Bank is entitled to receive under this Section 2.13 submitted by such Bank, through the Agent, to the Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of clearly demonstrable error and all such amounts shall be paid by the Borrower promptly upon demand by such Bank. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b) For the purpose of calculation of all amounts payable to a Bank under this Section, each Bank shall be deemed to have actually funded its relevant Eurodollar Loan or Swing Line Loan through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate or the applicable rate on such Swing Line Loan, as the case may be, in an amount equal to the amount of that Eurodollar Loan or Swing Line Loan, as the case may be, and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period or applicable period for such Eurodollar Loan or Swing Line Loan; provided, however, that each Bank may fund each of its Eurodollar Loans and the Swing Line Bank may fund its Swing Line Loans in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this subsection. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.14 Pro Rata Treatment, etc. Except as required under Sections 2.2, 2.5 and 2.10, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of the Facility Fee, each reduction of the Commitments, each participation in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans, each refinancing of any Borrowing with a Borrowing of any Type and each conversion of Loans, shall be made pro rata among the Banks in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. Each Bank agrees that in computing such Bank’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Agent may, in its discretion, round each Bank’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount.

2.15 Payments. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Loan or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder not later than 12:00 (noon), Philadelphia time, on the date when due in Dollars to the Agent at its offices at 0000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx 00000, or at such other place as may be designated by the Agent, in immediately available funds.

(b) Whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Loan or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.

2.16 Conversion and Continuation Options. The Borrower shall have the right at any time upon prior irrevocable notice to the Agent (a) not later than 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, on the Business Day of conversion, to convert any Eurodollar Loan to a Base Rate Loan, (b) not later than 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, three Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, (i) to convert any Base Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Loan, or (ii) to continue any Eurodollar Loan as a Eurodollar Loan for any additional Interest Period, and (c) not later than 11:00 a.m., Philadelphia time, three Business Days prior to conversion, to convert the Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loan to another permissible Interest Period, subject in each case to the following:

(a) a Eurodollar Loan may not be converted at a time other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto;

(b) any portion of a Revolving Credit Loan maturing or required to be repaid in less than one month may not be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Loan;

(c) no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such and no Base Rate Loan may be converted to a Eurodollar Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(d) any portion of a Eurodollar Loan that cannot be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Loan by reason of subsections 2.16(b) or (c) automatically shall be converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Revolving Credit Loan to a Base Rate Loan;

(e) if by the third Business Day prior to the last day of any Interest Period for Eurodollar Loans, the Borrower has failed to give notice of conversion or continuation as described in this subsection, the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Banks, and such Revolving Credit Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period; and

(f) each request by the Borrower to convert or continue a Revolving Credit Loan shall constitute a representation and warranty that each of the representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein is true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date as if made on and as of such date.

Accrued interest on a Revolving Credit Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the Borrower at the time of conversion.

2.17 Loan Accounts. Each Bank shall open and maintain on its books a loan account in the Borrower’s name with respect to Loans made, repayments, prepayments, the computation and payment of interest and other amounts due and sums paid to such Bank hereunder and under the Loan Documents. Except in the case of manifest error in computation, such records shall be presumed correct as to the amount at any time due to such Bank from the Borrower. The failure of any Bank to make an entry in its loan account shall not abrogate the Borrower’s duty to repay the Debt owed to such Bank under the Loan Documents.

2.18 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans may be used by the Borrower for its working capital and general corporate purposes in the ordinary course of business (including making loans to or other Investments in its Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business to the extent permitted hereunder) and to finance the purchase price and transaction costs in connection with acquisitions. The Letters of Credit shall be Letters of Credit required in the ordinary course of the Borrower’s business or in connection with acquisitions to the extent permitted hereunder.

7.2 Remedies. (a) If an Event of Default specified in subsection 7.1(g) with respect to the Borrower shall occur and be continuing, the Commitments (including the obligation of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit) shall automatically and immediately terminate, and the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents shall automatically and immediately become due and payable (including, without limitation, all Letter of Credit Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder). If any other Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, with the consent of the Required Banks, the Agent may, or upon the written request of the Required Banks, the Agent shall (a) by notice to the Borrower declare the Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon such Revolving Credit Commitments and the obligations of the applicable Banks to make Loans and the obligation of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit, shall immediately terminate; (b) by notice of default to the Borrower, declare the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable (including, without limitation, all Letter of Credit Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder); (c) exercise such remedies as may be available to the Agent and the Banks hereunder or under the Guaranty, the other Loan Documents or otherwise at law or equity; and/or (d) by notice to the Borrower require the Borrower to, and the Borrower shall thereupon, deposit in a non-interest bearing account with the Agent, as cash collateral for its obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the Applications, an amount equal to the aggregate Letter of Credit Coverage Requirement, and the Borrower hereby pledges to the Agent and the Banks, and grants to the Agent and the Banks a security interest in, all such cash as security for such obligations. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under the Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all the Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay the other Obligations. After all the Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other Obligations shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrower (or such other Person or Persons as may be lawfully entitled thereto). The Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank and the Letter of Credit Participants, such further documents and instruments as the Agent may request to evidence the creation and perfection of the within security interest in such cash collateral account. Except as expressly provided above in this Section, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary or in the other Loan Documents, any proceeds received by the Agent from any payment made by the Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents after the Commitments and the obligation of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit have been terminated, or received by the Agent from the foreclosure, sale, lease, collection upon, realization of or other disposition of any collateral which may have been provided to the Agent for the Obligations hereunder after the Commitments have been terminated (including without limitation insurance proceeds), shall be applied by the Agent as follows, unless otherwise agreed by all the Banks:

(i) first, to reimburse the Agent for out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements, including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal expenses, incurred by the Agent in connection with collection of any obligations of the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents;

(ii) second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Loans;

(iii) third, to fees payable under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (ratably according to the respective amounts then outstanding);

(iv) fourth, to the principal amount of the Loans then outstanding (including the payment of cash collateral in an amount equal to the Letter of Credit Coverage Requirements pursuant to subsection 7.2 (a));

(v) fifth, to the repayment of all other indebtedness then due and unpaid of the Borrower to the Banks incurred under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, whether of principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise (ratably according to the respective amounts then outstanding); and

(vi) the balance, if any, to the Loan Parties as required by law.

(c) In addition to the other rights and remedies contained in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, the Loans shall, at the Required Banks’ option, bear the interest rates provided in Section 2.7 hereof.

(d) In addition to all of the rights and remedies contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall have all of the rights and remedies under applicable Law, all of which rights and remedies shall be cumulative and non-exclusive, to the extent permitted by Law. The Agent may, and upon the request of the Required Banks shall, exercise all post-default rights granted to it and the Banks under the Loan Documents or applicable Law.

SECTION 8. THE AGENT

8.1 Appointment. Each Bank hereby irrevocably designates and appoints PNC as the Agent of such Bank, in each case under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each such Bank irrevocably authorizes the Agent, as the agent for such Bank to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Bank, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against the Agent. The Agent agrees to act as the Agent on behalf of the Banks to the extent provided in this Agreement.

8.2 Delegation of Duties. The Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to engage and pay for the advice and services of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Agent shall not be responsible to the Banks for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

8.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by them or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement (except for their or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Banks for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, the Notes or the other Loan Documents or for any failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Bank to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the other parties to Loan Documents (or any of them).

8.4 Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation 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 (including, without limitation, counsel to the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agent. The Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Agent. The Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Banks as they deem appropriate or they shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Banks against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Banks hereby agree that the Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Banks, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Banks and all future holders of the Notes.

8.5 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless they have received notice from a Bank or the Borrower or any other Loan Party referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Agent receives such a notice, the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Banks. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Banks; provided that unless and until the Agent shall have received such directions, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Banks.

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

8.7 Indemnification. The Banks agree to indemnify the Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Commitment Percentages, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Notes) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Bank shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 8.7 shall survive the payment of the Notes and all other amounts payable hereunder.

8.8 Agent in its Individual Capacity. The Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower as though it was not the Agent hereunder. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and any Note issued to it, the Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the terms “Bank” and “Banks” shall include the Agent in its individual capacity.

8.9 Successor Agent. The Agent may resign as Agent upon sixty (60) days’ notice to the Banks and the Borrower. If such Agent shall resign as Agent under this Agreement, then the Required Banks shall appoint from among the Banks a successor agent for the Banks, which appointment shall be subject to (unless a Default or an Event of Default shall exist) the approval of the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of an Agent, and the term “Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon its appointment, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any holders of the Notes. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Section 8.9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

8.10 USA Patriot Act. (a) Each Bank or assignee or participant of a Bank that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations because it is both (a) an Affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a physical presence in the United States or foreign country, and (b) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to the Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Bank is not a “shell” and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations: (i) within 10 days after the Closing Date, and (ii) at such other times as are required under the USA Patriot Act.

8.11 Beneficiaries. Except as expressly provided herein, the provisions of this Section 8 are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Banks, and the Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall not have any rights to rely on or enforce any of the provisions hereof. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall act solely as agent of the Banks and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any of the other Loan Parties.

9.6 Successors and Assigns. (a) Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party, and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Agent or the Banks that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns. The Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each Bank.

(b) Each Bank may, in accordance with applicable law, sell to any Bank or Affiliate thereof and, with the consent of the Borrower (except when any Event of Default exists) and the Agent (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to one or more other banks or financial institutions (each, a “Purchasing Bank”) all or a part of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided, however, that (a) so long as no Event of Default shall exist and be continuing, such assignment shall be in an amount not less than $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount as the Borrower and the Agent shall agree in their sole discretion), unless the sum of such assigning Bank’s Commitment is less than $5,000,000 in which case such assigning Bank may transfer all, but not less than all, of its interests hereunder and (b) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent and the Borrower for its acceptance (to the extent required) and recording in the Register an Assignment and Assumption, together with the Notes subject to such assignment and, except for assignments by a Bank to one of its Affiliates, a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 9.6, from and after the effective date specified in the applicable Assignment and Assumption, which effective date shall be at least five Business Days after the receipt thereof by the Agent and the Borrower (unless otherwise agreed by the Agent), (c) such Purchasing Bank shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement and (d) the assigning Bank thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of subsections 2.11, 2.12, 2.13, 5.8(c) and 9.5 (to the extent that such Bank’s entitlement to such benefits arose out of such Bank’s position as a Bank prior to the applicable assignment). Such Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Bank and the resulting amounts and percentages held by the Banks arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Bank of all or a pro rata portion of the rights and obligations of such assigning Bank under this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents.

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the assigning Bank thereunder and the Purchasing Bank thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Bank warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby, free and clear of any adverse claim and that its Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its Loans, without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption, (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning Bank makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto, or the financial condition of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof or the performance or observance by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (iii) such Purchasing Bank represents and warrants that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (iv) such Purchasing Bank confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.1 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (v) such Purchasing Bank will independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such assigning Bank or any other Bank and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vi) such Purchasing Bank appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as administrative agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such Purchasing Bank agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Bank including, if it is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, its obligation pursuant to Section 2.12 to deliver the forms prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service of the United States certifying as to the Purchasing Bank’s exemption from United States withholding taxes with respect to all payments to be made to the Purchasing Bank under this Agreement.

(d) The Agent shall maintain at its offices in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of error and the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks may treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Bank and a Purchasing Bank (and in the case of a Purchasing Bank that is not then a Bank or an Affiliate thereof, by the Borrower (unless an Event of Default shall then exist) and the Agent) together with the Note or Notes subject to such assignment and the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) above, the Agent shall promptly (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give notice thereof to the Banks. Within five Business Days after receipt of notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Agent, in exchange for the surrender of the original Note or Notes (A) a new Revolving Credit Note or Swing Line Note, as the case may be, to the order of such Purchasing Bank in the appropriate amounts assumed and (B) if the assigning Bank has retained an interest hereunder, the applicable Note or Notes in the appropriate amount(s). Such new Note(s) shall be dated the date of the surrendered Note(s) which such new Note(s) replace and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit B and C, respectively. Canceled Notes shall be returned to the Borrower.

(f) Upon the effective date of a New Bank Joinder, the lender becoming a party to this Agreement pursuant to subsection 2.8(d) hereof (each a “New Bank”) shall be a party hereto and shall be one of the Banks hereunder. On the effective date of such joinder and/or any increase in the Commitment of any existing Bank pursuant to subsection 2.8(d), the Borrower shall repay all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans (together with any amounts due under Section 2.13 as a result of such payment) and reborrow a like amount of Revolving Credit Loans from the Banks, including each New Bank, according to their new Commitment Percentages. The Agent shall, to the extent the Agent considers it practicable, net any payments to and borrowings from the same Bank.

(g) Each Bank may without the consent of the Borrower or the Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (each a “Participant”) in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it and the Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Bank shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes under this Agreement, (iv) the Borrower, the Agent and the other Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (v) in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code such Bank shall be, to the extent permitted by law, the sole representative with respect to the obligations held in the name of such Bank whether for its own account or for the account of any Participant and (vi) such Bank shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to the Loans and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Note or Notes held by such Bank other than any such amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Notes held by such Bank or any other Loan Document, other than with respect to the matters described in clauses (i) through (vii) of subsection 9.1(b) with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest and which is described in subsection 9.1(a) hereof.

(h) If amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the Notes are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement and any Note to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Bank under this Agreement or any Note, provided that in purchasing such participation such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Banks the proceeds thereof as provided in Section 9.8. The Borrower also agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11, 2.12, 2.13, 5.8(c) and 9.5 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time; provided, that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such Sections than the Bank selling the participation would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such Bank to such Participant had no such transfer occurred.

(i) If any Participant is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state thereof, the Bank selling the participation, concurrently with the sale of a participating interest to such Participant, shall cause such Participant (i) to represent to the Bank selling the participation (for the benefit of such Bank, the other Banks, the Agent and the Borrower) that under applicable law and treaties no taxes will be required to be withheld by the Agent, the Borrower or the Bank selling the participation with respect to any payments to be made to such Participant in respect of its participation in the Loans and (ii) to agree (for the benefit of such Bank, the other Banks, the Agent and Borrower) that it will deliver the tax forms and other documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.12 and comply from time to time with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations with respect to withholding tax exemptions.

(j) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, any Bank may, without obtaining any consents from any of the parties hereto, at any time (i) assign all or any portion of the Loans or Notes held by it to any Federal Reserve Bank or the United States Treasury as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank and (ii) in the case of a Bank that is or owns, controls or serves as originator for a fund, trust or similar entity, assign or pledge all or any portion of the Loans or Notes held by it to a trustee under any indenture to which such Bank is a party or to the lenders to such Bank for collateral security purposes, provided that any payment in respect of such assigned Loans or Notes made by the Borrower to or for the account of the assigning or pledging Bank in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall satisfy the Borrower’s obligations hereunder in respect to such assigned Loans or Notes to the extent of such payment. No such assignment shall release the assigning Bank from its obligations hereunder.

9.7 Confidentiality. The Banks agree that they will maintain all information and financial statements provided to them or otherwise obtained by them with respect to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries confidential and that they will not disclose the same or use it for any purposes; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Bank from disclosing any such information (a) to the Agent or any other Bank, (b) to any prospective assignee or participant in connection with any assignment or participation of Loans or Commitments permitted by this Agreement, (c) to its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisers, provided that any such person is advised by such Bank that such information is subject to the confidentiality limitations of this Section, (d) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over such Bank, (e) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, provided that the Borrower has (unless prohibited by the terms of any such order or requirement) been advised at least ten (10) days (or if such is not possible or practicable, such lesser number of days as is possible or practicable under the circumstances) prior to such disclosure of the existence of such order or requirement, (f) which has been publicly disclosed other than in breach of this Agreement, or (g) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under the Notes.

9.8 Adjustments; Set-off. (a) If any Bank (a “benefited Bank”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in subsection 7(g), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Bank, if any, in respect of such other Bank’s Loans, or interest thereon, being paid in respect of Loans being repaid simultaneously therewith or Loans required hereby to be paid proportionately such benefited Bank shall purchase for cash from the other Banks such portion of each such other Bank’s Loan, or shall provide such other Banks with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such benefited Bank to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Banks; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefited Bank, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Borrower agrees that each Bank so purchasing a portion of another Bank’s Loan may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Bank were the direct holder of such portion.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Banks provided by law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Bank shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes or the other Loan Documents (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Bank to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower. Each Bank agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Bank, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

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

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

9.11 Integration. This Agreement represents the agreement of the Borrower, the Agent and the Banks with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Agent or any Bank relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the Notes or the other Loan Documents.

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to xxx in any other jurisdiction.

9.14 Acknowledgments. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents;

(b) neither the Agent nor any Bank has any fiduciary relationship to the Borrower or any other party to the Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Agent and the Banks, on one hand, and the Borrower and its Affiliates party to the Loan Documents, on the other hand, is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

Environmental Matters

Aqua acquired the South Haven IN wastewater system in 2008. The system was under a court order to address sanitary sewer overflows. Aqua has made substantial upgrades to the wastewater treatment plant and sewer collection system. Additional upgrades to the collection system are budgeted for 2012 through 2014 at a total estimated cost of $1.1 million. Aqua is negotiating with the US Department of Justice and USEPA Region 5 to close out the court order.

Aqua has made improvements to the Utility Center wastewater collection system in Xxxxx County, IN that was acquired in 2003. Installation of a diversion sewer force main and a new lift station are budgeted for 2012 and 2013 at an estimated cost of $5.8 million. These improvements are in conformance with an amended Compliance Plan submitted by Aqua to the Indiana Department of Environmental Management to address wet weather sanitary sewer overflows.
