More than one Borrowing may occur on the same date, but at no time shall there be outstanding more than eight (8) Borrowings of LIBO Rate Term Loans in the aggregate for all Tranches of Term Loans.

- 46 -

2.03 Notice of Borrowing. Whenever the Borrowers desire to make a Borrowing of Term Loans hereunder, the Lead Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office at least one Business Day’s prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing of Base Rate Term Loans to be made hereunder and at least three Business Days’ (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent shall agree in its sole and absolute discretion) prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each LIBO Rate Term Loan to be made hereunder, provided that (in each case) any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on a certain day only if given before 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on such day (or such later time as the Administrative Agent shall agree in it its sole and absolute discretion); provided further that that, except for the Borrowing of the 2017 Additional Term Loans on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, if the Borrowers wish to request LIBO Rate Loans having an Interest Period other than one, two, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. four Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender with a Commitment of the relevant Tranche of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them. Not later than 11:00 a.m., three Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, conversion or continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lead Borrower (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by such Lenders. Each such notice (each, a “Notice of Borrowing”), except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.11, shall be irrevocable and shall be in writing, or by telephone promptly confirmed in writing by or on behalf of the Borrowers, in the form of Exhibit A-1 or such other form as may be approved by the Administrative Agent including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent, appropriately completed by a Responsible Officer of the relevant Borrower, appropriately completed to specify: (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing, (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) whether the respective Borrowing shall consist of Initial Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans or Refinancing Term Loans, (iv) whether the Term Loans being made pursuant to such Borrowing are to be initially maintained as Base Rate Term Loans or LIBO Rate Term Loans and (v) in the case of LIBO Rate Term Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender of the Tranche specified in the respective Notice of Borrowing, notice of such proposed Borrowing, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof (determined in accordance with Section 2.07) and of the other matters required by the immediately preceding sentence to be specified in the Notice of Borrowing.

2.04 Disbursement of Funds. No later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Lender with a Commitment of the relevant Tranche will make available its pro rata portion (determined in accordance with Section 2.07) of each such Borrowing requested to be made on such date. All such amounts will be made available in U.S. Dollars and in immediately available funds at the Payment Office, and the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrowers at the Payment Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lead Borrower and the Borrowers shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover on demand from such Lender or the Borrowers interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers until the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if recovered from such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking rules on interbank compensation and (ii) if recovered from the Borrowers, the rate of interest applicable to the relevant Borrowing, as determined pursuant to Section 2.08. Nothing in this Section 2.04 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to make Term Loans hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any failure by such Lender to make Term Loans hereunder.

- 47 -

2.05 Notes.

(a) Each Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Term Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13.15 and shall, if requested by such Lender, also be evidenced by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by the Borrowers substantially in the form of Exhibit B, with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (each, a “Term Note”).

(b) Each Lender will note on its internal records the amount of each Term Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof and prior to any transfer of any of its Notes will endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans evidenced thereby. Failure to make any such notation or any error in such notation shall not affect the Borrowers’ obligations in respect of such Term Loans.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 2.05 or elsewhere in this Agreement, Notes shall only be delivered to Lenders which at any time specifically request the delivery of such Notes. No failure of any Lender to request or obtain a Note evidencing its Term Loans to the Borrowers shall affect or in any manner impair the joint and several obligations of the Borrowers to pay the Term Loans (and all related Obligations) incurred by the Borrowers which would otherwise be evidenced thereby in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, and shall not in any way affect the security or guaranties therefor provided pursuant to the various Credit Documents. Any Lender which does not have a Note evidencing its outstanding Term Loans shall in no event be required to make the notations otherwise described in the preceding clause (d). At any time when any Lender requests the delivery of a Note to evidence any of its Term Loans, the Borrowers shall promptly execute and deliver to the respective Lender the requested Note in the appropriate amount or amounts to evidence such Term Loans.

2.06 Interest Rate Conversions. The Borrowers shall have the option to convert, on any Business Day, all or a portion equal to at least the Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans of a given Tranche made pursuant to one or more Borrowings of one or more Types of Term Loans, into a Borrowing (of the same Tranche) of another Type of Term Loan, provided that (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.11, (x) LIBO Rate Term Loans may be converted into Base Rate Term Loans only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the Term Loans being converted and no such partial conversion of LIBO Rate Term Loans, as the case may be, shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of such LIBO Rate Term Loans, made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount, (ii) unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree, Base Rate Term Loans may only be converted into LIBO Rate Term Loans if no Event of Default is in existence on the date of the conversion, and (iii) no conversion pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall result in a greater number of Borrowings of LIBO Rate Term Loans than is permitted under Section 2.02. Such conversion shall be effected by the Lead Borrower by giving the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) at least three Business Days’ prior notice (in the case of any conversion to or continuation of LIBO Rate Term Loans) or one Business Day’s notice (in the case of any conversion to Base Rate Term Loans) (each, a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) in the form of Exhibit A-2, appropriately completed to specify the Term Loans of a given Tranche to be so converted, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Term Loans were incurred and, if to be converted into LIBO Rate Term Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of any such proposed conversion affecting any of its Term Loans.

2.07 Pro Rata Borrowings. All Borrowings of Term Loans under this Agreement shall be incurred from the Lenders pro rata on the basis of such Lenders’ Commitments as the case may be. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender of its obligation to make Term Loans hereunder, and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Term Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Term Loans hereunder.

- 48 -

2.08 Interest.

(a) Each Borrower agrees, jointly and severally, to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Base Rate Term Loan (including with respect to any LIBO Rate Term Loan converted into a Base Rate Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.06 or 2.09) made to the Borrowers hereunder from the date of Borrowing thereof (or, in the circumstances described in the immediately preceding parenthetical, from the date of conversion of the respective LIBO Rate Term Loan into a Base Rate Term Loan) until the earlier of (i) the maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (ii) the conversion of such Base Rate Term Loan to a LIBO Rate Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.06 or 2.09, as applicable, at a rate per annum which shall be equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate, as in effect from time to time.

(b) Each Borrower agrees, jointly and severally, to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each LIBO Rate Term Loan made to the Borrowers from the date of Borrowing thereof until the earlier of (i) the maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (ii) the conversion of such LIBO Rate Term Loan to a Base Rate Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.06, 2.09 or 2.10, as applicable, at a rate per annum which shall, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, be equal to the sum of the Applicable Margin plus the applicable LIBO Rate for such Interest Period.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 11.01 (x) overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest in respect of each Term Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) for Base Rate Term Loans and associated interest, 2.00% per annum in excess of the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Term Loans plus the Base Rate, (ii) for LIBO Rate Term Loans and associated interest, 2.00% per annum in excess of the Applicable Margin for LIBO Rate Term Loans plus the LIBO Rate and (y) overdue amounts with respect to fees shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 2.00% per annum in excess of the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Term Loans plus the Base Rate, each as in effect from time to time, in each case with such interest to be payable on demand.

(d) Accrued (and theretofore unpaid) interest shall be calculated daily and payable (i) on each Interest Payment Date and (ii) on (w) the date of any conversion of a LIBO Rate Term Loan to a Base Rate Term Loan (on the amount so converted) prior to the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (x) the date of any prepayment or repayment thereof (on the amount prepaid or repaid), (y) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (z) after such maturity, on demand.

(e) Upon each Interest Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the LIBO Rate for each Interest Period applicable to the respective LIBO Rate Term Loans and shall promptly notify the Lead Borrower and the Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

(f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Base Rate at times when the Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Base Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

2.09 Interest Periods. At the time the Lead Borrower gives any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into, any LIBO Rate Term Loan (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to such LIBO Rate Term Loan (in the case of any subsequent Interest Period), the Lead Borrower shall have the right to elect the interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) applicable to such LIBO Rate Term Loan, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Lead Borrower be a one, two, three or six month period, or, if agreed to by all Lenders, a twelve month period, or, if agreed to by the Administrative Agent a period less than one month; provided that (in each case):

(i) all LIBO Rate Term Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

- 49 -

(ii) the initial Interest Period for any LIBO Rate Term Loan shall commence on the date of Borrowing of such LIBO Rate Term Loan (including, in the case of LIBO Rate Term Loans, the date of any conversion thereto from a Borrowing of Base Rate Term Loans and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such LIBO Rate Term Loan shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;

(iii) if any Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Term Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;

(iv) if any Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Term Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Term Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

(v) unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree, no Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Term Loan may be selected at any time when a Default or an Event of Default is then in existence; and

(vi) no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of any Tranche of Term Loans shall be selected which extends beyond the Maturity Date therefor.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (a) the initial Borrowing of the 2017 Additional Term Loans on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date shall be a LIBO Rate Term Loan and (b) the Interest Period with respect to such 2017 Additional Term Loans shall commence on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date and shall end on June 30, 2017 with the “LIBO Rate” equal to 1.044670% for such Interest Period.

With respect to any LIBO Rate Term Loans, at the end of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing thereof, the Lead Borrower may elect to split the respective Borrowing of a single Type under a single Tranche into two or more Borrowings of different Types under such Tranche or combine two or more Borrowings under a single Tranche into a single Borrowing of the same Type under such Tranche, in each case, by having the Lead Borrower give notice thereof together with its election of one or more Interest Periods, in each case so long as each resulting Borrowing (x) has an Interest Period which complies with the foregoing requirements of this Section 2.09, (y) has a principal amount which is not less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable to Borrowings of the respective Type and Tranche, and (z) does not cause a violation of the requirements of Section 2.02. If by 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of LIBO Rate Term Loans, the Lead Borrower has failed to elect, or is not permitted to elect, a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBO Rate, the Lead Borrower shall be deemed to have elected in the case of LIBO Rate Term Loans, to convert such LIBO Rate Term Loans into Base Rate Term Loans with such conversion to be effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

2.10 Increased Costs, Illegality, etc..

(a) In the event that any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (i) below, may be made only by the Administrative Agent):

(i) on any Interest Determination Date that, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBO Rate;

(ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any LIBO Rate Term Loan because of any change since the Closing Date in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (whether or not having the force of law) or in the official interpretation or administration thereof and including the

- 50 -

introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, order, official guideline or request, such as, but not limited to: (A) any additional Tax imposed on any Lender (except Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes indemnified under Section 5.04 or any Excluded Taxes) or (B) a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the LIBO Rate; or

(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any LIBO Rate Term Loan has been made (x) unlawful by any law or governmental rule, regulation or order, (y) impossible by compliance by any Lender in good faith with any governmental request (whether or not having force of law) or (z) impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Closing Date which materially and adversely affects the interbank Eurodollar market;

then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above) shall promptly give notice (by telephone promptly confirmed in writing) to the Lead Borrower and, except in the case of clause (i) above, to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, LIBO Rate Term Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by the Lead Borrower with respect to LIBO Rate Term Loans which have not yet been incurred (including by way of conversion) shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrowers, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to pay to such Lender, upon such Lender’s written request therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable hereunder (a written notice setting forth the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation thereof, shall be submitted to the Borrowers by such Lender and shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto), (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrowers shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law.

(b) At any time that any LIBO Rate Term Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(ii), the Lead Borrower may, and in the case of a LIBO Rate Term Loan affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(iii), the Lead Borrower shall, either (x) if the affected LIBO Rate Term Loan is then being made initially or pursuant to a conversion, cancel such Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) on the same date that the Lead Borrower was notified by the affected Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii) or (y) if the affected LIBO Rate Term Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert such LIBO Rate Term Loan into a Base Rate Term Loan, provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 2.10(b).

(c) If any Lender determines that after the Closing Date the introduction of or any change in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline, directive or request (whether or not having the force of law) concerning capital or liquidity requirements, or any change in interpretation or administration thereof by the NAIC or any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender based on the existence of such Lender’s Commitments hereunder or its obligations hereunder, then the Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to such Lender, upon its written demand therefor, such additional documented amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Lender or such other corporation as a result of such increase of capital. In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable, provided that such Lender’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 2.10(c) shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto. Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Lead Borrower, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of such additional amounts.

- 51 -

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III ((x) and (y) collectively referred to as “Xxxx-Xxxxx and Basel III”), shall be deemed to be a change after the Closing Date in a requirement of law or government rule, regulation or order, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented (including for purposes of this Section 2.10).

Notwithstanding the above, a Lender will not be entitled to demand compensation for any increased cost or reduction set forth in this Section 2.10 at any time if it is not the general practice and policy of such Lender to demand such compensation from similarly situated borrowers in similar circumstances at such time.

2.11 Compensation. The Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such compensation and the calculation of the amount of such compensation), for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its LIBO Rate Term Loans but excluding loss of anticipated profits (and without giving effect to the minimum “LIBO Rate”)) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Administrative Agent) a Borrowing of, or conversion from or into, LIBO Rate Term Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation); (ii) if any prepayment or repayment (including any prepayment or repayment made pursuant to Section 5.01, Section 5.02 or as a result of an acceleration of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 11) or conversion of any of its LIBO Rate Term Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any LIBO Rate Term Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Lead Borrower; or (iv) as a consequence of any other default by the Borrowers to repay LIBO Rate Term Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or any Note held by such Lender.

2.12 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that on the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 2.10(c) or Section 5.04 or Section 13.01(a)(ii) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Lead Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Term Loans affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrowers or the right of any Lender provided in Sections 2.10, 5.04 and 13.01(a)(ii).

2.13 Replacement of Lenders. (x) If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, (y) upon the occurrence of an event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 2.10(c) or Section 5.04 or Section 13.01(a)(ii) with respect to such Lender or (z) in the case of a refusal by a Lender to consent to certain proposed changes, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement which have been approved by the Required Lenders as (and to the extent) provided in Section 13.12(b), the Lead Borrower shall have the right, if no Event of Default then exists (or, in the case of preceding clause (z), will exist immediately after giving effect to such replacement), to replace such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”) with one or more other Eligible Transferees, none of whom shall constitute a Defaulting Lender at the time of such replacement (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”) and each of whom shall be required to be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (to the extent the Administrative Agent’s consent would be required for an assignment to such Replacement Lender pursuant to Section 13.04); provided that (i) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 2.13, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more Assignment and Assumption Agreements pursuant to Section 13.04(b) (and with all fees payable pursuant to said Section 13.04(b) to be paid by the Replacement Lender and/or the Replaced Lender (as may be agreed to at such time by and among the Lead Borrower, the Replacement Lender and the Replaced Lender) pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Term Loans of, the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall pay to (x) the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum of (I) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Term Loans of the respective Replaced Lender under each Tranche with respect to which such Replaced Lender is being replaced and (II) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid, Fees owing to the Replaced Lender

- 52 -

pursuant to Section 4.01 and (ii) all obligations of the Borrowers due and owing to the Replaced Lender at such time (other than those specifically described in clause (i) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement. Upon receipt by the Replaced Lender of all amounts required to be paid to it pursuant to this Section 2.13, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (but not obligated) and authorized to execute an Assignment and Assumption Agreement on behalf of such Replaced Lender, and any such Assignment and Assumption Agreement so executed by the Administrative Agent and the Replacement Lender shall be effective for purposes of this Section 2.13 and Section 13.04. Upon the execution of the respective Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above, recordation of the assignment on the Register pursuant to Section 13.15 and, if so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to the Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrowers, (x) the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.10, 2.11, 5.04, 12.07 and 13.01), which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such replacement. In connection with any replacement of Lenders pursuant to, and as contemplated by, this Section 2.13, each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Holdings to take all necessary action, in the name of such Borrower, as described above in this Section 2.13 in order to effect the replacement of the respective Lender or Lenders in accordance with the preceding provisions of this Section 2.13.

2.14 Extended Term Loans.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, subject to the terms of this Section 2.14, the Lead Borrower may at any time and from time to time when no Event of Default then exists request that all or a portion of the Initial Term Loans, the Extended Term Loans or any Tranche of Incremental Term Loans (each, an “Existing Initial Term Loan Tranche,” “Existing Extended Term Loan Tranche” and “Existing Incremental Term Loan Tranche,” respectively), together with any related outstandings, be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or any portion of the principal amount (and related outstandings) of such Initial Term Loans, Extended Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans (any such Term Loans which have been so converted, “Extended Initial Term Loans,” “Extended Existing Term Loans” and “Extended Incremental Term Loans,” respectively) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.14. In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, the Lead Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche) (each, an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under the relevant Existing Term Loan Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and (y) be identical to the Term Loans under the relevant Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans are to be converted, except that: (i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (ii) the Effective Yield with respect to the Extended Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, original issue discount or otherwise) may be different than the Effective Yield for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of the applicable Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans); (iv) Extended Term Loans may have mandatory prepayment terms which provide for the application of proceeds from mandatory prepayment events to be made first to prepay the Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans have been converted before applying any such proceeds to prepay such Extended Term Loans; and (v) Extended Term Loans may have optional prepayment terms (including call protection and terms which allow Term Loans under the relevant Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans have been converted to be optionally prepaid prior to the prepayment of such Extended Term Loans) as may be agreed by the Lead Borrower and the Lenders thereof; provided that no Extended Term Loans may be optionally prepaid prior to the date on which all Term Loans with an earlier final stated maturity (including Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Term Loans were converted) are repaid in full, unless such optional prepayment is accompanied by a pro rata optional prepayment of such other Term Loans; provided, however, that (A) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans of a given Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date of any other Term Loans hereunder and (B) the Weighted

- 53 -

Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans of a given Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any other Tranche of Term Loans then outstanding. Any Extended Term Loans converted pursuant to any Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, an “Extension Series”) of Extended Term Loans, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Term Loans converted from an Existing Term Loan Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Extension Series with respect to such Existing Term Loan Tranche.

(b) [Reserved]

(c) The Lead Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Tranche are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.14. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Tranche converted into Extended Term Loans pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender (each, an “Extending Term Loan Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Extension Request converted into Extended Term Loans shall notify the Administrative Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche which it has elected to request be converted into Extended Term Loans (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent). Any Lender that does not respond to the Extension Request on or prior to the date specified therein shall be deemed to have rejected such Extension Request. In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans under the applicable Existing Term Loan Tranche exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans requested pursuant to such Extension Request, Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, subject to such Extension Elections shall either (i) be converted to Extended Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche included in such Extension Elections or (ii) to the extent such option is expressly set forth in the applicable Extension Request, be converted to Extended Term Loans upon an increase in the amount of Extended Term Loans so that such excess does not exist.

(d) Extended Term Loans shall be established pursuant to an amendment (each, an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement among the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Extending Term Loan Lender providing an Extended Term Loan thereunder, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 2.14(a) above (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Amendment. After giving effect to the Extension, the Initial Term Loan Commitments so extended shall cease to be a part of the Tranche they were a part of immediately prior to the Extension.

(e) Extensions consummated by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to each Extension and the other transactions contemplated by this Section 2.14 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest or fees in respect of any Extended Term Loans on such terms as may be set forth in the applicable Extension Request) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 5.01, 5.02, 5.03, 13.02 or 13.06) or any other Credit Document that may otherwise prohibit any Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.14, provided that such consent shall not be deemed to be an acceptance of any Extension Request.

(f) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that this Agreement and the other Credit Documents may be amended pursuant to an Extension Amendment, without the consent of any other Lenders, to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to (i) reflect the existence and terms of any Extended Term Loans incurred pursuant thereto, (ii) modify the scheduled repayments set forth in Section 5.02(a) with respect to any Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to an Extension Election to reflect a reduction in the principal amount of the Term Loans thereunder in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Extended Term Loans converted pursuant to the applicable Extension (with such amount to be applied ratably to reduce scheduled repayments of such Term Loans required pursuant to Section 5.02(a)), (iii) make such other changes to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents consistent with the provisions and intent of Section 13.12(d)(i), (iv) establish new Tranches or sub-Tranches in

- 54 -

respect of Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary in connection with the establishment of such new Tranches or sub-Tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.14, and (v) effect such other amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Lead Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.14, and each Lender hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Extension Amendment. In connection with any Extension, the Credit Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the Latest Maturity Date so that such maturity date is extended to the Latest Maturity Date (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent), to the extent required pursuant to applicable local law.

2.15 Incremental Term Loan Commitments.

(a) The Lead Borrower shall have the right, in consultation and coordination with the Administrative Agent as to all of the matters set forth below in this Section 2.15, but without requiring the consent of any of the Lenders, to request at any time and from time to time that one or more Lenders (and/or one or more other Persons which are Eligible Transferees and which will become Lenders) provide Incremental Term Loan Commitments to the Borrowers and, subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement and in the relevant Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement, make Incremental Term Loans pursuant thereto; it being understood and agreed, however, that (i) no Lender shall be obligated to provide an Incremental Term Loan Commitment as a result of any such request by the Lead Borrower, (ii) any Lender (including any Eligible Transferee who will become a Lender) may so provide an Incremental Term Loan Commitment without the consent of any other Lender, (iii) each Tranche of Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall be denominated in U.S. Dollars, (iv) the amount of Incremental Term Loan Commitments made available pursuant to a given Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall be in a minimum aggregate amount for all Lenders which provide an Incremental Term Loan Commitment thereunder (including Eligible Transferees who will become Lenders) of at least $25,000,000, (v) the aggregate amount of all Incremental Term Loan Commitments provided pursuant to this Section 2.15 after the Closing Date and all Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 10.04(xxvii)(A) shall not exceed the sum of (x) $100,000,000 (the “First Lien Fixed Dollar Incremental Amount”) less the aggregate amount of Indebtedness and commitments incurred under the Second Lien Fixed Dollar Incremental Amount, plus (y) the sum of all voluntary prepayments of Term Loans, Refinancing Notes and Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 10.04(xxvii) that ranks pari passu with the Term Loans (limited, in the case of any voluntary prepayment in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.19 or Section 2.20 or similar provisions in the definitive documentation with respect to such Refinancing Notes or other Indebtedness, to the cash payment made by any Credit Party or Restricted Subsidiary therefor) (in each case other than with the proceeds of long-term Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness under the ABL Credit Agreement)) in each case prior to the date of incurrence of any such Incremental Term Loan Commitments plus (z) an unlimited amount so long as the Consolidated First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, determined on a Pro Forma Basis as of such date would not exceed 3.50 to 1.00; (vi) the proceeds of all Incremental Term Loans incurred by the Borrowers may be used for any purpose not prohibited under this Agreement, (vii) each Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall specifically designate, with the approval of the Administrative Agent, the Tranche of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments being provided thereunder (which Tranche shall be a new Tranche i.e., not the same as any existing Tranche of Incremental Term Loans, Incremental Term Loan Commitments or other Term Loans), unless the requirements of Section 2.15(c) are satisfied), (viii) if to be incurred as a new Tranche of Incremental Term Loans, such Incremental Term Loans shall have the same terms as each other Tranche of Term Loans as in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of the relevant Incremental Term Loan Agreement, except as to purpose (which is subject to the requirements of preceding clause (vi)) and optional prepayment provisions and mandatory prepayment provisions (which are governed by Section 5.02; provided that each new Tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall be entitled to share in mandatory prepayments on a ratable basis with the other Tranches of Term Loans (unless the holders of the Incremental Term Loans of any Tranche agree to take a lesser share of any such prepayments)); provided, however, that (I) the maturity and amortization of such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans may differ, so long as such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans shall have (a) a Maturity Date of no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date as of the date such Indebtedness was incurred and (b) a Weighted Average Life to Maturity of no less than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity as then in effect for the Tranche of then outstanding Term Loans with the then longest Weighted Average Life to Maturity, (II) the Effective Yield applicable to such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans may differ from that applicable to the then outstanding Tranches of Term Loans, with the Effective Yield applicable thereto to be specified in the respective Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement; provided, however, that if the Effective Yield for any such Incremental Term

- 55 -

Loans exceeds the Effective Yield then applicable to any then outstanding Initial Term Loans by more than 0.50% per annum, the Applicable Margins for all then outstanding Initial Term Loans shall be increased as of such date in accordance with the requirements of the definition of “Applicable Margin” and (III) such Tranche of Incremental Term Loans may have other terms (other than those described in preceding clauses (I) and (II)) that may differ from those of other Tranches of Term Loans, including, without limitation, as to the application of optional or voluntary prepayments among the Incremental Term Loans and the existing Term Loans and such other differences as may be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ix) all Incremental Term Loans (and all interest, fees and other amounts payable thereon) incurred by the Borrowers shall be Obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other applicable Credit Documents and shall be secured by the Security Agreements, and guaranteed under each relevant Guaranty, on a pari passu basis with all other Term Loans secured by the Security Agreement and guaranteed under each such Guaranty, (x) each Lender (including any Eligible Transferee who will become a Lender) agreeing to provide an Incremental Term Loan Commitment pursuant to an Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall, subject to the satisfaction of the relevant conditions set forth in this Agreement, make Incremental Term Loans under the Tranche specified in such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement as provided in Section 2.01(b) and such Term Loans shall thereafter be deemed to be Incremental Term Loans under such Tranche for all purposes of this Agreement and the other applicable Credit Documents and (xi) all Incremental Term Loan Commitment Requirements are satisfied.

(b) At the time of the provision of Incremental Term Loan Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.15, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each such Lender or other Eligible Transferee which agrees to provide an Incremental Term Loan Commitment (each, an “Incremental Term Loan Lender”) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit L (appropriately completed), with the effectiveness of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment provided therein to occur on the date on which (w) a fully executed copy of such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent, (x) all fees required to be paid in connection therewith at the time of such effectiveness shall have been paid (including, without limitation, any agreed upon upfront or arrangement fees owing to the Administrative Agent to the extent it served as the arranger for the Incremental Term Loan Commitments), (y) all Incremental Term Loan Commitment Requirements are satisfied, and (z) all other conditions set forth in this Section 2.15 shall have been satisfied. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement, and at such time, (i) Schedule 2.01 shall be deemed modified to reflect the revised Incremental Term Loan Commitments of the affected Lenders and (ii) to the extent requested by any Incremental Term Loan Lender, Term Notes will be issued at the Borrowers’ expense to such Incremental Term Loan Lender, to be in conformity with the requirements of Section 2.05 (with appropriate modification) to the extent needed to reflect the new Incremental Term Loans made by such Incremental Term Loan Lender.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 2.15, the Incremental Term Loan Commitments provided by an Incremental Term Loan Lender or Incremental Term Loan Lenders, as the case may be, pursuant to each Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall constitute a new Tranche, which shall be separate and distinct from the existing Tranches pursuant to this Agreement; provided that, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, the parties to a given Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement may specify therein that the Incremental Term Loans made pursuant thereto shall constitute part of, and be added to, an existing Tranche of Term Loans, in any case so long as the following requirements are satisfied:

(i) the Incremental Term Loans to be made pursuant to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment Agreement shall have the same Borrower, the same Maturity Date and the same Applicable Margins as the Tranche of Term Loans to which the new Incremental Term Loans are being added;

(ii) the new Incremental Term Loans shall have the same Scheduled Repayment dates as then remain with respect to the Tranche to which such new Incremental Term Loans are being added (with the amount of each Scheduled Repayment applicable to such new Incremental Term Loans to be the same (on a proportionate basis) as is theretofore applicable to the Tranche to which such new Incremental Term Loans are being added, thereby increasing the amount of each then remaining Scheduled Repayment of the respective Tranche proportionately; and

- 56 -

on the date of the making of such new Incremental Term Loans, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 2.09, such new Incremental Term Loans shall be added to (and form part of) each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans of the applicable Tranche on a pro rata basis (based on the relative sizes of the various outstanding Borrowings), so that each Lender holding Term Loans under the respective Tranche of Term Loans participates in each outstanding Borrowing of Term Loans of the respective Tranche (after giving effect to the incurrence of such new Incremental Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.01(b)) on a pro rata basis. To the extent the provisions of preceding clause (iii) require that Lenders making new Incremental Term Loans add such Incremental Term Loans to the then outstanding Borrowings of LIBO Rate Term Loans of such Tranche, it is acknowledged that the effect thereof may result in such new Incremental Term Loans having short Interest Periods i.e., an Interest Period that began during an Interest Period then applicable to outstanding LIBO Rate Term Loans of such Tranche and which will end on the last day of such Interest Period). All determinations by any Lender pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

(iii) such Refinancing Term Loans shall not be guaranteed by any Person other than Holdings, the Borrowers or a Subsidiary Guarantor;

(c) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by Section 2.18(a) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the payment of interest, fees, amortization or premium in respect of the Refinancing Term Loans on the terms specified by the Lead Borrower) and hereby waive the requirements of this Agreement or any other Credit Document that may otherwise prohibit any transaction contemplated by Section 2.18(a). The Refinancing Term Loans shall be established pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement among Holdings, the Borrowers and the Refinancing Term Loan Lenders providing such Refinancing Term Loans (a “Refinancing Term Loan Amendment”) which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 2.18(a). Each Refinancing Term Loan Amendment shall be binding on the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Credit Parties party thereto and the other parties hereto without the consent of any other Lender and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Lead Borrower, to effect the provisions of Section 2.18 including such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in connection therewith and to adjust the amortization schedule in Section 5.02(a) (insofar as such schedule relates to payments due to Lenders the Term Loans of which are refinanced with the proceeds of Refinancing Term Loans; provided that no such amendment shall reduce the pro rata share of any such payment that would have otherwise been payable to the Lenders, the Term Loans of which are not refinanced with the proceeds of Refinancing Term Loans). The Administrative Agent shall be permitted, and each is hereby authorized, to enter into such amendments with the Borrowers to effect the foregoing.

The Auction Manager acting in its capacity as such hereunder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of Section 12 and Section 13.01 mutatis mutandis as if each reference therein to the “Administrative Agent” were a reference to the Auction Manager, and the Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the Auction Manager as reasonably requested by the Auction Manager in order to enable it to perform its responsibilities and duties in connection with each Auction.

5.04 Net Payments.

(a) All payments made by or on account of any Credit Party under any Credit Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from such payments, then the Credit Parties jointly and severally agree that (i) to the extent such deduction or withholding is on account of an Indemnified Tax or Other Tax, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholding (including deduction or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.04), the Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the applicable withholding agent will make such deductions or withholdings, and (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. In addition, the Credit Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

In addition, each Lender shall deliver to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such documentation (including any specific documents required below in Section 5.04(c)) expired, obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, deliver promptly to the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its inability to do so.

Solely for purposes of this Section 5.04(c)(z), “FATCA” shall include any amendment made to FATCA after the Closing Date.

- 67 -

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.04, a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(d) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Credit Parties or with respect to which a Credit Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 5.04(a), it shall pay to the relevant Credit Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Credit Party under Section 5.04(a) with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including any Taxes, of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the relevant Credit Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Credit Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section 5.04(d), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to any Credit Party pursuant to this
Section 5.04(d) to the extent that such payment would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. Nothing in this Section 5.04(d) shall be construed to obligate the Administrative Agent or any Lender to disclose its Tax returns or any other information regarding its Tax affairs or computations to any Person or otherwise to arrange its Tax affairs in any manner other than as it determines in its sole discretion.

It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Credit Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” and “security trustee” under the Credit Documents, and each of the Lenders (including in its capacity as a potential Guaranteed Creditor under a Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Designated Treasury Services Agreement) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any Credit Party to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” or “security trustee” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.02 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Section 12 and Section 13 (including Section 13.01, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” or “security trustee” under the Credit Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Administrative Agent to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Guaranteed Creditors with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents and acknowledge and agree that any such action by any Agent shall bind the Lenders.

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Lead Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;

The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Term Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Term Loan.

The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 12.07 are subject to the provisions of Section 5.04.

The Secured Creditors hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Credit Party is subject, (b) at any other sale or foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Creditors shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that would vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a bid, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or Equity Interests thereof shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote of the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in clauses (a)(i) through (a)(v) of Section 13.04 of this Agreement, and (iii) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of debt credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Lenders pro rata and the Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of the Obligations that had been assigned to the acquisition vehicle shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Creditor or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action.

12.10 Resignation of the Agents. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation (including as Collateral Agent) to the Lenders and the Lead Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the Lead Borrower’s consent (other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 11.01 or 11.05), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders (and consented to by the Lead Borrower, to the extent so required) and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, with the Lead Borrower’s consent (other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 11.01 or 11.05), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lead Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment within such period, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Credit Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security solely for purposes of maintaining the Secured Creditors’ security interest thereon until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders (with the consent of the Lead Borrower, to the extent so required) appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section 12.10. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the provisions of this Section 12 and Section 13.01 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

12.11 Collateral Matters and Guaranty Matters.

Each of the Lenders (including in its capacity as a potential Guaranteed Creditor under a Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreement or Designated Treasury Services Agreement) irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion,

(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Credit Document (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than (x) contingent indemnification obligations and (y) obligations and liabilities under Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Designated Treasury Services Agreements), (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Credit Document to a Person that is not a Credit Party, (iii) that constitutes Excluded Collateral, (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Subsidiary Guarantor, subject to Section 13.12, upon release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiaries Guaranty pursuant to clause (b) below or (v) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 13.12;

(b) to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiaries Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder; and

(c) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Credit Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 10.01(iv), 10.01(vi), 10.01(vii), 10.01(xiv), and 10.01(xxx) (in the case of clause (ii)) or any other Lien that is permitted by Section 10.01 to be senior to the Lien securing the Obligations or to release any Lien securing the Obligations upon the incurrence of any Lien permitted by Section 10.01 with respect to specified assets if the Lien securing the Obligations is not allowed by the documentation creating such Lien or related documentation.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 12.11. In each case as specified in this Section 12.11, the Administrative Agent will (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at the Borrowers’ expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Credit Party such documents as such Credit Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents and this Section 12.11.

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Credit Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

12.12 Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Designated Treasury Services Agreements. No Guaranteed Creditor that obtains the benefits of Section 11, any Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Guaranty or any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Credit Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Credit Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 12.12 to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Designated Treasury Services Agreements unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Guaranteed Creditor.

- 115 -

12.13 Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall, within 10 days after written demand therefor, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 5.04 and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Credit Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 12.13. The agreements in this Section 12.13 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

13.04 Benefit of Agreement; Assignments; Participations, etc.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no Borrower may assign or transfer any of its rights, obligations or interest hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lenders and, provided, further, that, although any Lender may transfer, assign or grant participation in its rights or obligations hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer or assign all or any portion of its Commitments hereunder except as provided in Sections 2.13 and 13.04(b)) and the transferee, assignee or participant, as the case may be, shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder and, provided, further, that no Lender shall transfer or grant any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Term Loan or Note in which such participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof or increases in the size of the Commitments, or increase the amount of the participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory repayment of any Term Loan shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment (or the available portion thereof) or Term Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iii) modify any of the voting percentages set forth in Section 13.12 or the underlying definitions, (iv) except as otherwise expressly provided in the Security Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all the Security Documents supporting the Term Loans in which such participant is participating or (v) except as otherwise provided in the Credit Documents, release all or substantially all of the value of the Guaranty supporting the Loans in which such participant is participating. In the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto). Each Borrower agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10 and 5.04 (subject to the limitations and requirements of such Sections) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment; provided, however, that a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.10 or Section 5.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such participant except to the extent such entitlement to a greater payment results from a change in law after the sale of the participation takes place. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and interest amounts) of each participant’s interest in the Term Loans or other obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Term Loan, or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Term Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender (or any Lender together with one or more other Lenders) may (x) assign all or a portion of its Commitments and related rights or outstanding Obligations (or, if the Commitments with respect to the relevant Tranche have terminated, outstanding Obligations) hereunder to (i)(A) its parent company and/or any affiliate of such Lender which is at least 50% owned by such Lender or its parent company or (B) to one or more other Lenders or any affiliate of any such other Lender which is at least 50% owned by such other Lender or its parent company (provided that any fund that invests in loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of another fund which is a Lender (or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor) shall be treated as an affiliate of such other Lender for the purposes of this subclause (x)(i)(B)); provided that no such assignment may be made to any such Person that is, or would at such time constitute, a Defaulting Lender, or (ii) in the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in loans, any other fund that invests in loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of any Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor or (y) assign all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default then exists under Section 11.01 or 11.05, the Lead Borrower, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) in the aggregate for the assigning Lender or

- 119 -

assigning Lenders, of such Commitments and related outstanding Obligations (or, if the Commitments with respect to the relevant Tranche have terminated, outstanding Obligations) hereunder to one or more Eligible Transferees (treating any fund that invests in loans and any other fund that invests in loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of such fund or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor as a single Eligible Transferee), each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (which Assignment and Assumption Agreement shall contain an acknowledgement and agreement by the respective assignee that, as a Lender, it shall be subject to, and bound by the terms of the ABL Intercreditor Agreement and the First Lien/Second Lien Intercreditor Agreement), provided that (i) at such time, Schedule 2.01 shall be deemed modified to reflect the Commitments and/or outstanding Term Loans, as the case may be, of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders, (ii) upon the surrender of the relevant Notes by the assigning Lender (or, upon such assigning Lender’s indemnifying the Borrowers for any lost Note pursuant to a customary indemnification agreement) new Notes will be issued, at the Borrowers’ expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning Lender upon the request of such new Lender or assigning Lender, such new Notes to be in conformity with the requirements of Section 2.05 (with appropriate modifications) to the extent needed to reflect the revised Commitments and/or outstanding Term Loans, as the case may be, (iii) the consent of the (A) Administrative Agent and (B) so long as no Event of Default then exists under Section 11.01 or 11.05, the consent of the Lead Borrower shall (in either case) be required in connection with any such assignment pursuant to clause (y) above (which consent, in the case of each of clauses (A) and (B), shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the Lead Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof, (iv) the Administrative Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500 and (v) no such transfer or assignment shall be effective until recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register pursuant to Section 13.15. To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments and outstanding Term Loans. At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b) to a Person that is not already a Lender hereunder, such assignee shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers such Tax forms as are required to be provided under clauses (b) and (c) of Section 5.04 and shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. To the extent that an assignment of all or any portion of a Lender’s Commitments and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 2.13 or this
Section 13.04(b) would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 2.10 or 5.04 from those being charged by the assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then the Lead Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrowers, in accordance with and pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective assignment). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any sale or assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b) to a Sponsor Affiliate shall be made in accordance with Section 2.21 and evidenced via an assignment, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (a “Sponsor Affiliate Assignment and Assumption”), in accordance with this Section 13.04(b).

(c) The Borrowers shall also be entitled to purchase (from Lenders) outstanding principal of Term Loans in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.19 and 2.20, which purchases shall be evidenced by assignments (in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) from the applicable Lender to the Lead Borrower. No such transfer or assignment shall be effective until recorded by the Administrative Agent (in a manner consistent with the following sentence) on the Register pursuant to Section 13.15. All Term Loans purchased pursuant to Section 2.19 and 2.20 shall be immediately and automatically cancelled and retired, and the Lead Borrower shall in no event become a Lender hereunder. To the extent of any assignment to a Borrower as described in this clause (c), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to the assigned Term Loans.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Term Loans and Notes hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank and, with prior notification to the Administrative Agent (but without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers), any Lender which is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Term Loans and Notes to its trustee or to a collateral agent providing credit or credit support to such Lender in support of its obligations to such trustee, such collateral agent or a holder of such obligations, as the case may be. No pledge pursuant to this clause (c) shall release the transferor Lender from any of its obligations hereunder.

- 120 -

(e) Each Lender acknowledges and agrees to comply with the provisions of Section 13.04 applicable to it as a Lender hereunder.

(f) Each Sponsor Affiliate, solely in its capacity as a Lender, hereby agrees, and each Sponsor Affiliate Assignment and Assumption shall provide a confirmation, that, if any Credit Party shall be subject to any voluntary or involuntary proceeding commenced under any Debtor Relief Law now or hereafter in effect (“Bankruptcy Proceedings”), (i) such Sponsor Affiliate shall not take any step or action in such Bankruptcy Proceeding to object to, impede, or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by the Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third party that is supported by the Administrative Agent) in relation to such Sponsor Affiliate’s claim with respect to its Term Loans (a “Claim”) (including, without limitation, objecting to any debtor in possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition, compromise, or plan of reorganization) so long as such Sponsor Affiliate is treated in connection with such exercise or action on the same or better terms as the other Lenders and (ii) with respect to any matter requiring the vote of Lenders during the pendency of a Bankruptcy Proceeding (including, without limitation, voting on any plan of reorganization), the Term Loans held by such Sponsor Affiliate (and any Claim with respect thereto) shall be deemed to be voted by such Sponsor Affiliate in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Sponsor Affiliates, so long as such Sponsor Affiliate is treated in connection with the exercise of such right or taking of such action on the same or better terms as the other Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders and each Sponsor Affiliate agree and acknowledge that the provisions set forth in this Section 13.04(f) constitute a “subordination agreement” as such term is contemplated by, and utilized in, Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and, as such, would be enforceable for all purposes in any case where a Credit Party has filed for protection under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect applicable to Credit Party. Except as expressly provided in this Section 13.04(f), the provisions of this Section 13.04(f) shall not be applicable to any Debt Fund Affiliate.

(g) If any Borrower wishes to replace the Term Loans or Commitments with Term Loans or Commitments having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders of such Term Loans or holdings such Commitments, instead of prepaying the Term Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require such Lenders to assign such Term Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 13.12 (with such replacement, if applicable, being deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 13.12). Pursuant to any such assignment, all Term Loans and Commitments to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the applicable Lenders in the same manner as would be required if such Term Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrowers), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.08. By receiving such purchase price, the applicable Lenders shall automatically be deemed to have assigned such Term Loans or Commitments pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.

The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Lead Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent, to provide to any requesting Lender, the list of Disqualified Lenders provided to the Administrative Agent by the Lead Borrower and any updates thereto. The Borrower hereby agrees that any such requesting Lender may share the Disqualified Lenders with any potential assignee, transferee or participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Credit Party and the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions of this Agreement relating to Disqualified Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or participant or prospective Lender or participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender

13.05 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrowers or any other Credit Party and the Administrative Agent,

- 121 -

the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

13.06 Payments Pro Rata.

(a) The Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of any Credit Party in respect of any Obligations of such Credit Party, it shall, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, distribute such payment to the Lenders (other than any Lender that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of such payment) pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.

(b) Each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise) which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Term Loans or Fees, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations of the respective Credit Party to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Lenders in such amount; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of the preceding Sections 13.06(a) and (b) shall be subject to (x) the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders, (y) the express provisions of this Agreement which permit disproportionate payments with respect to various of the Tranches as, and to the extent, provided herein, and (z) any other provisions which permit disproportionate payments with respect to the Term Loans as, and to the extent, provided therein.

13.07 Calculations; Computations.

(a) The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto); provided that (i) except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all computations of Excess Cash Flow and the Applicable Margin, and all computations and all definitions (including accounting terms) used in determining compliance with Section 9.14, shall utilize U.S. GAAP and policies in conformity with those used to prepare the audited financial statements of the Lead Borrower referred to in Section 8.05(a)(i) for the fiscal year of the Lead Borrower ended December 31, 2015 and, (ii) to the extent expressly provided herein, certain calculations shall be made on a Pro Forma Basis; provided further, that if the Lead Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Lead Borrower wishes to amend any leverage calculation or any financial definition used therein to implement the effect of any change in U.S. GAAP or the application thereof occurring after the Closing Date on the operation thereof (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Lead Borrower that the Required Lenders wish to amend any leverage test or any financial definition used therein for such purpose), then the Lead Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall negotiate in good faith to amend such leverage test or the definitions used therein (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders) to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such changes in U.S. GAAP; provided, further that all determinations made pursuant to any applicable leverage test or any financial definition used therein shall be determined on the basis of U.S. GAAP as applied and in effect immediately before the relevant change in U.S. GAAP or the application thereof became effective, until such leverage test or such financial definition is amended. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 141R or ASC 805 (or any other financial accounting standard having a similar result or effect).

- 122 -

(b) All computations of interest (other than interest based on the Prime Rate) and other Fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or Fees are payable. All computations of interest based determined by reference to the Prime Rate shall be based on a 365-day or 366-day year, as the case may be.

(c) The calculation of any financial ratios under this Agreement shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-down if there is no nearest number).

In order to induce the Agents, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit hereunder, and to induce the other Guaranteed Creditors to enter into Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Designated Treasury Services Agreements in recognition of the direct benefits to be received by each Credit Agreement Party from the proceeds of the Term Loans and the entering into of such Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreements and Designated Treasury Services Agreements, each Credit Agreement Party hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors as follows: each Credit Agreement Party hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees as primary obligor and not merely as surety the full and prompt payment when due, whether upon maturity, acceleration or otherwise, of any and all of its Relevant Guaranteed Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors. If any or all of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations of any Credit Agreement Party to the Guaranteed Creditors becomes due and payable hereunder, such Credit Agreement Party, unconditionally and irrevocably, promises to pay such indebtedness to the Administrative Agent and/or the other Guaranteed Creditors, or order, on demand, together with any and all expenses which may be incurred by the Administrative Agent and the other Guaranteed Creditors in collecting any of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations. This Credit Agreement Party Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. This Credit Agreement Party Guaranty is a continuing one and all liabilities to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon. If claim is ever made upon any Guaranteed Creditor for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations and any of the aforesaid payees repays all or part of said amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such payee or any of its property or (ii) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such payee with any such claimant (including any Relevant Guaranteed Party), then and in such event the respective Credit Agreement Party agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon such Credit Agreement Party, notwithstanding any revocation of this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty or any other instrument evidencing any liability of any Relevant Guaranteed Party, and each Credit Agreement Party shall be and remain liable to the aforesaid payees hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by any such payee.

14.02 Bankruptcy. Additionally, each Credit Agreement Party unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the payment of any and all of its Relevant Guaranteed Obligations to the Guaranteed Creditors whether or not due or payable by any Relevant Guaranteed Party upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 11.05, and irrevocably and unconditionally promises to pay such indebtedness to the Guaranteed Creditors, or order, on demand, in lawful money of the United States.

14.03 Nature of Liability. The liability of each Credit Agreement Party hereunder is primary, absolute and unconditional, exclusive and independent of any security for or other guaranty of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations, whether executed by any other guarantor or by any other party, and each Credit Agreement Party understands and agrees, to the fullest extent permitted under law, that the liability of such Credit Agreement Party hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by (a) any direction as to application of payment by any Relevant Guaranteed Party or by any other party, or (b) any other continuing or other guaranty, undertaking or maximum liability of a guarantor or of any other party as to the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations, or (c) any payment on or in reduction of any such other guaranty or undertaking (other than payment in cash of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations), or (d) any dissolution, termination or increase, decrease or change in personnel by any Relevant Guaranteed Party, or (e) any payment made to any Guaranteed Creditor on the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations which any such Guaranteed Creditor repays to any Relevant Guaranteed Party pursuant to court order in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other debtor relief proceeding, and each Credit Agreement Party waives any right to the deferral or modification of its obligations hereunder by reason of any such proceeding, or (f) any action or inaction by the Guaranteed Creditors as contemplated in Section 14.05, or (g) any invalidity, irregularity or enforceability of all or any part of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations or of any security therefor.

- 130 -

14.04 Independent Obligation. The obligations of each Credit Agreement Party hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other guarantor, any other party or any Relevant Guaranteed Party, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Credit Agreement Party whether or not action is brought against any other guarantor, any other party or any Relevant Guaranteed Party and whether or not any other guarantor, any other party or any Relevant Guaranteed Party be joined in any such action or actions. Each Credit Agreement Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by any Relevant Guaranteed Party or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to such Relevant Guaranteed Party shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to the relevant Credit Agreement Party.

14.05 Authorization. To the fullest extent permitted under law, each Credit Agreement Party authorizes the Guaranteed Creditors without notice or demand, and without affecting or impairing its liability hereunder, from time to time to:

(a) change the manner, place or terms of payment of, and/or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, increase, accelerate or alter, any of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations (including any increase or decrease in the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest or fees thereon), any security therefor, or any liability incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof, and this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty shall apply to the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations as so changed, extended, renewed or altered;

(b) take and hold security for the payment of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations and sell, exchange, release, impair, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any property by whomsoever at any time pledged or mortgaged to secure, or howsoever securing, the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations or any liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and/or any offset thereagainst;

(c) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any Relevant Guaranteed Party, any other Credit Party or others or otherwise act or refrain from acting;

(d) release or substitute any one or more endorsers, guarantors, any Relevant Guaranteed Party, other Credit Parties or other obligors;

(e) settle or compromise any of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations, any security therefor or any liability (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any liability (whether due or not) of any Relevant Guaranteed Party to its creditors other than the Guaranteed Creditors;

(f) apply any sums by whomsoever paid or howsoever realized to any liability or liabilities of any Relevant Guaranteed Party to the Guaranteed Creditors regardless of what liability or liabilities of such Relevant Guaranteed Party remain unpaid;

(g) consent to or waive any breach of, or any act, omission or default under, this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreement, any Designated Treasury Services Agreement or any of the instruments or agreements referred to herein or therein, or otherwise amend, modify or supplement this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any Designated Interest Rate Protection Agreement, any Designated Treasury Services Agreement or any of such other instruments or agreements; and/or

(h) take any other action which would, under otherwise applicable principles of common law, give rise to a legal or equitable discharge of such Credit Agreement Party from its liabilities under this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty.

- 131 -

14.06 Reliance. It is not necessary for any Guaranteed Creditor to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Relevant Guaranteed Party or the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Relevant Guaranteed Obligations made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed hereunder.

14.07 Subordination Any indebtedness of any Relevant Guaranteed Party now or hereafter owing to any Credit Agreement Party is hereby subordinated to the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations of such Relevant Guaranteed Party owing to the Guaranteed Creditors; and if the Administrative Agent so requests at a time when an Event of Default exists, all such indebtedness of such Relevant Guaranteed Party to such Credit Agreement Party shall be collected, enforced and received by such Credit Agreement Party for the benefit of the Guaranteed Creditors and be paid over to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Guaranteed Creditors on account of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations of such Relevant Guaranteed Party to the Guaranteed Creditors, but without affecting or impairing in any manner the liability of any Credit Agreement Party under the other provisions of this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Credit Agreement Party hereby agrees with the Guaranteed Creditors that it will not exercise any right of subrogation which it may at any time otherwise have as a result of this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty (whether contractual, under Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise) until all Relevant Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash.

14.08 Waiver.

(a) Each Credit Agreement Party waives any right (except as shall be required by applicable law and cannot be waived) any right to require any Guaranteed Creditor to (i) proceed against any Relevant Guaranteed Party, any other guarantor or any other party, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from any Relevant Guaranteed Party, any other guarantor or any other party or (iii) pursue any other remedy in any Guaranteed Creditor’s power whatsoever. Each Credit Agreement Party waives any defense (except as shall be required by applicable statute and cannot be waived) based on or arising out of any defense of any Relevant Guaranteed Party, any other guarantor or any other party, other than payment of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such payment, based on or arising out of the disability of any Relevant Guaranteed Party, any other guarantor or any other party, or the validity, legality or unenforceability of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Relevant Guaranteed Party other than payment of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations to the extent of such payment. The Guaranteed Creditors may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Guaranteed Creditor by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable (to the extent such sale is permitted by applicable law), or exercise any other right or remedy the Guaranteed Creditors may have against any Relevant Guaranteed Party or any other party, or any security, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Credit Agreement Party hereunder except to the extent the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations have been paid. Each Credit Agreement Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted under law, any defense arising out of any such election by the Guaranteed Creditors, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Credit Agreement Party against any Relevant Guaranteed Party or any other party or any security.

(b) Each Credit Agreement Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted under law, all presentments, demands for performance, protests and notices, including, without limitation, notices of nonperformance, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notices of acceptance of this Credit Agreement Party Guaranty, and notices of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Relevant Guaranteed Obligations. Each Credit Agreement Party assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each Relevant Guaranteed Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Relevant Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks which such Credit Agreement Party assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the other Guaranteed Creditors shall have any duty to advise any Credit Agreement Party of information known to them regarding such circumstances or risks.
