(c) Each borrowing hereunder shall be in an amount equal to (x) in the case of Base Rate Loans and Cost of Funds Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof (or, if the then available aggregate Maximum Credit Limit of all Lenders is less than $1,000,000, such lesser amount) and (y) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof.

(d) Subject to Section 2.4(e), upon receipt of any Borrowing Notice from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.4(a) with respect to a requested borrowing of a Revolving Credit Loan, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender, or at any time after the Conversion to Approving Lenders Funding Date, each Approving Lender thereof.

Each Swing Line Loan will be made available on the Borrowing Date therefor to the Borrower by the Swing Line Lender by wire transfer to the account of the Borrower set forth on Schedule 2.4 (or such other accounts of the Borrower or other Person reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders in the United States as may be notified in writing by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent from time to time). If any Lender in a timely manner provides the Administrative Agent with such a written notice of its disapproval of further borrowings, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that one or more of the Lenders have elected not to fund further borrowings.

In accordance with Section 2.5(d), unless any

of the events described in Section 9(f) shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of clause (b) of this Section 2.5 shall apply), each Approving Swing Line Lender (other than ING) shall make the proceeds of its Revolving Credit Loan available to the Swing Line Lender for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Swing Line Lender's Applicable Lending Office for Cost of Funds Loans prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) in funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date such request is made, provided, that, with respect to ING, the Administrative Agent will advance ING's portion of such Revolving Credit Loan on the Business Day next succeeding the date such request is made and, in accordance with Section 2.5(d), ING shall be irrevocably obligated, regardless of whether it has affirmatively agreed to fund its Stated Percentage of the related Revolving Credit Loan, to pay to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Revolving Credit Loan advanced by the Administrative Agent on ING's behalf, plus interest (at the rate specified in the Fronting Fee Letter) at the Administrative Agent's office specified in Section 11.2 prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date that is one (1) Business Day after such Business Day.

Each Approving Swing Line Lender shall promptly transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its Swing Line Participation Amount and upon receipt thereof the Swing Line Lender shall deliver to such Lender a Swing Line Loan participation certificate, in a form specified by the Swing Line Lender, dated the date of receipt of the Swing Line Participation Amount and in such amount.

(c) Whenever, at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any Approving Swing Line Lender such Lender's Swing Line Participation Amount, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Swing Line Lender shall distribute to such Lender its Swing Line Participation Amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender's participating interest was outstanding and funded, and in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Lender's pro rata portion of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Swing Line Loans then due) in like funds as received; provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Lender shall return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swing Line Lender to it in like funds as such payment is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender.

(d) Each Approving Swing Line Lender's obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans referred to in Section 2.5(a) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 2.5(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower, or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, (iii) any failure to satisfy any condition precedent to extensions of credit set forth in Section 6.2, (iv) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Loan Party, (v) any breach of this Agreement by any Loan Party or any other Lender or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(a) If the Administrative Agent shall not have received full repayment in cash of any Daylight Overdraft Loan at or before 4:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the Borrowing Date of such Daylight Overdraft Loan (or such later time determined by the Daylight Overdraft Lender in its sole discretion, such later time not to be later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the next Business Day following the Borrowing Date therefor), the Daylight Overdraft Lender may on the immediately following Business Day request on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Daylight Overdraft Lender to act on its behalf), that each Approving Daylight Overdraft Lender, including the Daylight Overdraft Lender, make a Revolving Credit Loan (which initially shall be a Cost of Funds Loan with an Interest Period ending the next Business Day) in an amount equal to such Lender's Stated Percentage of the outstanding amount of such Daylight Overdraft Loan (a "Refunded Daylight Overdraft Loan"). In accordance with Section 2.6(d), unless any of the events described in Section 9(f) shall have occurred (in which event the procedures of clause (b) of this Section 2.6 shall apply), each Approving Daylight Overdraft Lender (other than ING) shall make the proceeds of its Revolving Credit Loan available to the Daylight Overdraft Lender for the account of the Daylight Overdraft Lender at the Daylight Overdraft Lender's Applicable Lending Office for Base Rate Loans prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) in funds immediately available on the date such request is made, provided that, such request is received by each Lender prior to 10:30 a.m. on such date and, provided, further, that, with respect to ING, the Administrative Agent will advance ING's portion of such Revolving Credit Loan on the Business Day immediately following the Borrowing Date of such Daylight Overdraft Loan and, in accordance with Section 2.6(d), ING shall be irrevocably obligated, regardless of whether it has affirmatively agreed to fund its Stated Percentage of the related Revolving Credit Loan, to pay to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Revolving Credit Loan advanced by the Administrative Agent on ING's behalf, plus interest (at the rate specified in the Fronting Fee Letter) at the Administrative Agent's office specified in Section 11.2 prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date that is one (1) Business Day after such Business Day.

(b) If prior to the making of any Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 2.6 one of the events described in Section 9(f) shall have occurred, each Approving Daylight Overdraft Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan was to have been made, purchase an undivided participating interest in the then outstanding Daylight Overdraft Loan in an amount equal to its Stated Percentage of such Daylight Overdraft Loans that were to have been repaid with such Revolving Credit Loans (the "Daylight Overdraft Participation Amount"). Each Approving Daylight Overdraft Lender shall promptly transfer to the Daylight Overdraft Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its Daylight Overdraft Participation Amount and upon receipt thereof the Daylight Overdraft Lender shall deliver to such Lender a Daylight Overdraft Loan participation certificate, in a form specified by the Daylight Overdraft Lender, dated the date of receipt of the Daylight Overdraft Participation Amount and in such amount.

(c) Whenever, at any time after the Daylight Overdraft Lender has received from any Approving Daylight Overdraft Lender such Lender's Daylight Overdraft Participation Amount, or the Daylight Overdraft Lender receives any payment on account thereof, the Daylight Overdraft Lender shall distribute to such Lender its Daylight Overdraft Participation Amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Lender's participating interest was outstanding and funded, and in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Lender's pro rata portion of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Daylight Overdraft Loans then due) in like funds as received; provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Daylight Overdraft Lender is required to be returned, such Lender shall return to the Daylight Overdraft Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Daylight Overdraft Lender to it in like funds as such payment is required to be returned by the Daylight Overdraft Lender.

(d) Each Approving Daylight Overdraft Lender's obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans referred to in Section 2.6(a) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Daylight Overdraft Lender, the Borrower, or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, (iii) any failure to satisfy any condition precedent to extensions of credit set forth in Section 6.2, (iv) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Loan Party, (v) any breach of this Agreement by any Loan Party or any other Lender or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

2.7 The Election of Approving Lenders to Continue Funding and Issuing Letters of Credit.

(a) If on any date one or more Lenders provides the Administrative Agent with, and the Administrative Agent has actually received, a written notice in the form of Exhibit G-1 (a "Declining Lender Notice") indicating that for reasons other than the occurrence of an Event of Default such Lender or Lenders have elected not to fund any additional Revolving Credit Loans, to approve the issuance of additional Letters of Credit, to approve the extension, amendment, increase or decrease of any existing Letter of Credit or to participate in any additional Swing Line Loan or Daylight Overdraft Loan (in any such event, such Lender or Lenders to be referred to herein as a "Declining Lender" or "Declining Lenders"), the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to Lenders other than the Declining Lenders a written notice of such Declining Lenders. Any Declining Lender Notice received by the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day from any Declining Lender shall be effective with respect to such Declining Lender on the immediately succeeding Business Day and such Declining Lender shall not be required to (i) fund any Revolving Credit Loans that are made pursuant to Borrowing Notices received by the Administrative Agent on or after such next Business Day, (ii) participate in any Daylight Overdraft Loans made on or after such next Business Day, (iii) participate in any Swing Line Loans made pursuant to Swing Line requests received by the Administrative Agent on or after such next Business Day or (iv) issue or participate in any Letter of Credit issued, extended or amended on or after such next Business Day. On and after the Business Day following receipt of any Declining Lender Notice by the Administrative Agent, if the Lender or Lenders which are not the Declining Lenders desire, in their full and absolute discretion, they may (on a pro rata basis among the Lenders that have elected to continue funding in accordance with their Stated Percentages thereof) make the full amount or any part of any Revolving Credit Loan requested on or after such date, approve the issuance of, or extension or increase to, Letters of Credit requested on or after such date or approve the making of the requested Swing Line Loan or Daylight Overdraft Loan requested on or after such date, as applicable, irrespective of the Declining Lenders' disapproval (in such case, the Lenders that provide written notice in the form of Exhibit G-2 to the Administrative Agent of their election to continue funding, approve such issuance of, or extension or increase to, Letters of Credit or approve the making of Swing Line Loans or Daylight Overdraft Loans shall be referred to as the "Approving Lenders" and any Lender who does not provide such notice shall be deemed to be a Declining Lender); provided that no Lender's Maximum Credit Limit shall be exceeded without its written consent. In such event, from the Business Day following receipt of any Declining Lender Notice by the Administrative Agent (each, a "Conversion to Approving Lenders Funding Date") forward, all subsequent Revolving Credit Loans, issuances of Letter of Credit or amendments to Letters of Credit that increase the amount or extend the expiration date and participations in such Letters of Credit, and participations in Swing Line Loans or Daylight Overdraft Loans made from and after such date shall be made unilaterally by the Approving Lenders and no Letter of Credit thereafter issued or amended to increase the amount or extend the expiration date, or Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans or Daylight Overdraft Loans thereafter made shall be participated in by the Declining Lenders.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.7, in the event that a Letter of Credit is issued or amended hereunder prior to a Conversion to Approving Lenders Funding Date and a Revolving Credit Loan is required to be made in respect of such Letter of Credit on or after a Conversion to Approving Lenders Funding Date pursuant to Section 3.5(b), each of the Declining Lenders who had originally purchased a participation in such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 3.4 shall be required to fund, on a pro rata basis based upon its Stated Percentage of participation in the related Letter of Credit on the Borrowing Date of such Letter of Credit, its portion of such Revolving Credit Loan notwithstanding that such Revolving Credit Loan is being made after a Conversion to Approving Lenders Funding Date and this Section 2.7 shall survive any Declining Lenders' termination of its obligations under this Agreement so as to permit enforcement of this obligation as against such Declining Lender.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.7, in the event that a Swing Line Loan or Daylight Overdraft Loan is made prior to the Conversion to Approving Lenders Funding Date and either (i) a Revolving Credit Loan is required to be made in respect of such Swing Line Loan or Daylight Overdraft Loan on or after the Conversion to Approving Lenders Funding Date pursuant to Section 2.5(a) or Section 2.6(a), as applicable, or (ii) the Lenders are required to purchase a participation in respect of such Swing Line Loan or Daylight Overdraft Loan on or after the Conversion to Approving Lenders Funding Date pursuant to Section 2.5(b) or Section 2.6(b), each of the Declining Lenders that were not Declining Lenders on the date such Loans were made shall be required to fund a Revolving Credit Loan or to purchase a participation in such Swing Line Loan or Daylight Overdraft Loan, as applicable, on a pro rata basis based upon its Stated Percentage of participation in the related Swing Line Loan or Daylight Overdraft Loan, notwithstanding that such Revolving Credit Loan is being made or participation is being purchased after a Conversion to Approving Lenders Funding Date and this Section 2.7 shall survive any Declining Lenders' termination of its obligations under this Agreement so as to permit enforcement of this obligation as against such Declining Lender.

2.8 Maximum Amount Increase. The Maximum Amount may be increased, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Swing Line Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender, the Issuing Lenders, the Increasing Lenders and the Borrower by an aggregate amount up to $50,000,000 to a maximum of $300,000,000 at any time after the Amended and Restated Effective Date as follows:

(a) Not more than 60 days and not less than 30 days prior to the proposed effective date of any such increase in the Maximum Amount (unless otherwise agreed between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower), the Borrower may make a written request to the Administrative Agent, substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex VII, for such increase (the "Requested Increase Amount") in the Maximum Amount, who shall forward a copy of any such request to each of the Lenders, provided that, no more than one (1) such request will be made to the Administrative Agent. Such request shall specify a proposed effective date of such increase and shall constitute an invitation to each Lender to increase its Maximum Credit Limit by a ratable portion of such Requested Increase Amount.

(b) Each Lender, acting in its sole discretion and with no obligation to increase its Maximum Credit Limit pursuant to this Section 2.8(b), shall by written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent advise the Borrower and the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to all or any portion of such increase in its Maximum Credit Limit within 15 days after the Borrower's request. Any such Lender may accept all of such ratable increase, a portion of such increase, or decline to accept any of such increase in its Maximum Credit Limit. If any Lender shall not have responded affirmatively within such 15 day period, such Lender shall be deemed to have rejected the Borrower's request for an increase in its Maximum Credit Limit in full. Promptly following the conclusion of such 15 day period, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of the results of such request to the Lenders to so increase the Maximum Amount by the Requested Increase Amount.

(c) If the aggregate amount of the increases in the Maximum Credit Limit for each of the Lenders which the Lenders have accepted in accordance with Section 2.8(b) shall be less than the Requested Increase Amount, the Administrative Agent (subject to the approval of the Borrower, the Swing Line Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender and the Issuing Lenders, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) may offer to such additional Persons ("New Lenders") as may be agreed by the Borrower, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing Line Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender and the Administrative Agent the opportunity to make available such amount of new Maximum Credit Limit as may be required so that the aggregate increases in Maximum Credit Limits by the existing Lenders and new Maximum Credit Limits by the New Lenders shall equal the Requested Increase Amount (the aggregate increases in the Maximum Credit Limits by the existing Lenders and new Maximum Credit Limits by the New Lenders, the "Increase Amount"). Each Increase Amount shall be in an amount equal to $25,000,000 or a whole multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof.

(d) The increases in the Maximum Credit Limits shall be effective on the date (the "Increase Effective Date") all of the following conditions are satisfied:

(i) the Administrative Agent shall have received an agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex VIII (an "Increase and New Lender Agreement"), executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of each Lender that so elects to increase its Maximum Credit Limit (each an "Increasing Lender"), each New Lender, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower;

(ii) the Maximum Amount after giving effect to such increases and new Maximum Credit Limits shall not exceed $300,000,000;

(iii) an increase fee in an amount to be agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and payable on the Increase Effective Date to each Lender that agrees to increase its Maximum Credit Limit, and any other fees and amounts (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 11.6) payable by the Borrower in connection with such increase, shall have been paid in immediately available funds;

(iv) immediately prior to and after giving effect to such increase in the Maximum Amount, each of the Borrower and the Parent shall be in pro forma compliance with each of the financial covenants set forth in Section 8.1;

(v) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would exist after giving effect to such increase in the Maximum Amount and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of a Responsible Person of the Borrower as to the matters set forth in Sections 6.2(b) and (c);

(e) On the Increase Effective Date, Schedule 1.0 of the Increase and New Lender Agreement, which shall reflect the Maximum Credit Limits of the Lenders at such time, shall be deemed to supersede Schedule 1.0 hereto without any further action or consent of any party, provided that, the Maximum Credit Limit of any Lender set forth on Schedule 1.0 shall not be increased unless such Lender is an Increasing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall cause a copy of such revised Schedule 1.0 to be available to the Lenders.

2.9 Elected Line Amount Selection. From time to time, but in any event, no more than four (4) times in any calendar year, the Borrower may elect by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent, in substantially the form of Exhibit H hereto (the "Notice of Elected Line Amount"), to increase or decrease the Elected Line Amount to an amount (a) not greater than the Maximum Amount in effect at the time of such election and (b) not less than $150,000,000, provided, that each such election of the Elected Line Amount shall only be effective on the date all of the following conditions are satisfied:

(i) the Administrative Agent shall have received a Notice of Elected Line Amount, executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of the Borrower;

(ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would exist after giving effect to such election of the Elected Line Amount and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate of a Responsible Person of the Borrower as to the matters set forth in Sections 6.2(b) and (c); and

(iii) immediately prior to and after giving effect to such election of the Elected Line Amount, each of the Borrower and the Parent shall be in pro forma compliance with each of the financial covenants set forth in Section 8.1.

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to or shall constitute a commitment or agreement by any Agent or any Lender to make any Loan or other Credit Extension to or for the account of the Borrower, regardless of the Elected Line Amount.

SECTION 3.

3.1 Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender severally agrees on an UNCOMMITTED AND ABSOLUTELY DISCRETIONARY basis, to consider requests for issuance of and participation in letters of credit (the letters of credit issued on and after the Amended and Restated Effective Date pursuant to this Section 3.1, together with any "Letters of Credit" (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) deemed to be Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 12.4(b), collectively, "Letters of Credit") for the account of the Borrower from time to time during the Funding Request Period; provided that, (i) Section 3.1(b) shall not be contravened at any time, (ii) the Borrower shall not request, and no Issuing Lender shall issue, any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit, the Borrowing Base Availability would be less than zero; and (iii) the applicable L/C Obligations arising from Letters of Credit shall not exceed the Letters of Credit Sublimit.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Issuing Lender shall be obligated to consider requests that it issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to the issuance of such Letter of Credit, the aggregate outstanding L/C Obligations attributed to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender would exceed such Issuing Lender's Issuance Cap, provided that subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender may issue Letters of Credit on a discretionary basis during such time as the aggregate outstanding L/C Obligations attributed to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender exceeds such Issuing Lender's Issuance Cap, but such Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to do so.

(e) NEITHER ANY ISSUING LENDER NOR ANY LENDER SHALL HAVE ANY COMMITMENT OR OBLIGATION TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY LETTER OF CREDIT AND/OR ISSUE ANY LETTER OF CREDIT UNLESS AND UNTIL SUCH ISSUING LENDER OR SUCH LENDER AFFIRMATIVELY COMMITS OR IS DEEMED TO HAVE COMMITTED UNDER SECTION 3.2(d) TO SUCH REQUESTED LETTER OF CREDIT. NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL OTHERWISE COMMIT OR OBLIGATE ANY ISSUING LENDER OR SUCH LENDER, OR BE INTERPRETED AS A PROMISE OR COMMITMENT BY ANY ISSUING LENDER OR SUCH LENDER TO ISSUE OR ELECT TO ISSUE ANY SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT OR PARTICIPATE OR ELECT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT UNLESS AND UNTIL SUCH ISSUING LENDER OR SUCH LENDER AFFIRMATIVELY COMMITS OR IS DEEMED TO HAVE COMMITTED UNDER SECTION 3.2(d) TO SUCH REQUESTED LETTER OF CREDIT.

(f) The obligations of the L/C Participants to purchase participations in the obligations of the Issuing Lenders under outstanding Letters of Credit and Reimbursement Obligations pursuant to Section 3.4 shall survive the Termination Date with respect to Letters of Credit which have been or were required to be Cash Collateralized pursuant to this Section 3.1 until the earliest of (i) the expiration date for such Letters of Credit, (ii) the date the entire amounts available under such Letters of Credit are drawn and such drawings are repaid, and (iii) the date that is 91 days after the Termination Date; provided that notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 3.1(f), with respect to any Letter of Credit having an expiration date following the Termination Date (such a Letter of Credit, a "Post-Termination LOC"), in no event shall the obligations of the L/C Participants to purchase participations in the obligations of an Issuing Lender under a Post-Termination LOC and Reimbursement Obligations pursuant to Section 3.4 expire or terminate prior to the Business Day following the expiration, cancellation or termination of the last remaining outstanding Post-Termination LOC and payment of all Reimbursement Obligations relating thereto.

3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit.

(a) The Borrower may from time to time request that an Issuing Lender issue or amend a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of such Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating to the proposed Letter of Credit as such Issuing Lender may reasonably request, and a Letter of Credit Request. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of any Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Request shall be in the form attached hereto as Annex III, shall include a form of such requested Letter of Credit and shall specify:

(i) the maximum liability under such Letter of Credit;

(ii) the requested date on which such Letter of Credit is to be issued;

(iii) the Type of Letter of Credit being requested and the purpose thereof;

(iv) the name and address of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit;

(v) the expiration or termination date of such Letter of Credit;

(vi) the documents to be presented by the beneficiary thereof in the case of a drawing or demand for payment thereunder; and

(vii) the delivery instructions for such Letter of Credit.

In the case of a request for an amendment or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Request shall be in the form attached hereto as Annex IV and shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender thereof:

(A) the Letter of Credit to be amended;

(B) the requested date of the proposed amendment or extension;

(D) the delivery instructions or other action for such amendment or extension.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, if the applicable Issuing Lender elects to do so, the applicable Issuing Lender shall issue, amend or extend such Letter of Credit on the first Business Day following the Business Day on which such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent receive the corresponding Letter of Credit Request; provided, that with respect to any Letter of Credit Request received by an Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on a Business Day, such Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to have been delivered on the next succeeding Business Day and the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension, as applicable, shall be adjusted accordingly. Upon the effectiveness of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to an outstanding Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to assume that the Applications and certificates, documents and other papers and information requested by the applicable Issuing Lender in connection therewith were completed and delivered to the satisfaction of such Issuing Lender.

(b) If the Borrower so requests in any Letter of Credit Request, the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an "Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit"); provided that any such Auto‑Renewal Letter of Credit must permit such Issuing Lender to prevent any such renewal at least once during the term thereof by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a specified date (the "Nonrenewal Notice Date") to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent, the Nonrenewal Notice Date for each Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit shall occur prior to the date that is thirty (30) days before the Termination Date. The Borrower shall be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent for any non-renewal of an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit, such notice to be delivered not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the Nonrenewal Notice Date, and unless such notice is given, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested renewal of such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Lender shall not be required to provide prior notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any pending renewal of an Auto‑Renewal Letter of Credit. Once an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit has been issued, notwithstanding the Borrower's compliance or non-compliance with its obligation to make such specific request, unless the Borrower shall have specifically requested non-renewal, the Borrower and the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Lender to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to a date not later than 90 days after the Termination Date; provided, however, that such Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to permit any renewal of an Auto‑Renewal Letter of Credit; provided, further, however, that such Issuing Lender shall not permit any renewal of an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit if (A) it has received notice (in writing) on or before the date that is five (5) Business Days before the Nonrenewal Notice Date from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders advising it not to permit renewal, or (B) after giving effect to any such renewal, the earlier of the (x) expiration date of such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit, and (y) the next occurring Non-Renewal Notice Date of such Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit would occur more than 60 days after the Termination Date.

(c) Upon receipt of a Letter of Credit Request by an Issuing Lender, such Issuing Lender shall confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone and in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Request and, if not, such Issuing Lender shall provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by such Issuing Lender of confirmation from the Administrative Agent in writing that the requested Letter of Credit, amendment or extension is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, such Issuing Lender may, if it elects to do so in its absolute discretion, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment or effect the applicable extension, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Issuing Lender's usual and customary business practices.

(d) Unless a Lender has provided the Administrative Agent with a written notice prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) one Business Day prior to the day such Letter of Credit is to be issued, extended or amended that such Lender does not approve further issuances of Letters of Credit, if an Issuing Lender elects in its sole discretion to issue, extend or amend a Letter of Credit pursuant to a Letter of Credit Request, each Lender will be deemed to have approved such requested issuance, extension or amendment of such Letter of Credit. No Letter of Credit will be issued, extended or increased if, prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the proposed Borrowing Date of such Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent has received a written notice of Declining Lender in accordance with Section 2.7. If the Administrative Agent does receive a written notice from a Declining Lender on a timely basis, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and such Issuing Lender by 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the proposed Borrowing Date, and the proposed Letter of Credit will not be issued, extended or increased unless one or more of the Lenders have elected to become Approving Lenders thereby triggering the Conversion to Approving Lenders Funding Date. If the Approving Lenders elect to issue, extend or increase the Letter of Credit applicable notwithstanding the Administrative Agent's receipt of such a notice from a Declining Lender, the applicable Issuing Lender shall (on a pro rata basis among the Approving Lenders) issue a Letter of Credit in the full amount or extend or increase such Letter of Credit upon such requested terms.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Issuing Lenders are under no obligation to consider requests to issue or provide any Letter of Credit (including any renewal of an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit) unless consented to by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent if:

(i) Any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing or providing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance or provision of such type of Letter of Credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Amended and Restated Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Amended and Restated Effective Date and which such Issuing Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it; or

(ii) such Letter of Credit is not in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Lender or the issuance and/or provision of such Letter of Credit shall violate any applicable policies of such Issuing Lender.

(f) If any Issuing Lender shall issue, extend or amend any Letter of Credit without obtaining prior consent of the Administrative Agent (as provided in sub-section (c) above), or if any Issuing Lender shall permit the extension or renewal of an Auto-Renewal Letter of Credit either (i) without giving timely prior notice to the Administrative Agent, (ii) after receiving timely notice not to renew pursuant to Section 3.2(b) or (iii) when such issuance, extension or amendment is not permitted hereunder (as provided in Section 3.2(b) above), such Letter of Credit (A) shall for all purposes be deemed to have been issued by such Issuing Lender solely for its own account and risk and (B) shall not be considered a Letter of Credit outstanding under this Agreement, and no Lender shall be deemed to have any participation therein, effective as of the date of such issuance, amendment, extension or renewal, as the case may be, unless the Required Lenders or Approving Lenders, as the case may be, expressly consent thereto in which case the Lenders or only the Approving Lenders, as the case may be, shall participate; provided, however, that to be subsequently considered a Letter of Credit outstanding under this Agreement, the consent of all Lenders shall be required to the extent that any such issuance, amendment, extension or renewal is not then permitted hereunder by reason of the provisions of Sections 3.1(d) or 6.2.

(g) Within one (1) Business Day after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Lender thereof shall also deliver to the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment, and within one (1) Business Day of the effectiveness of any extension of any Letter of Credit, such Issuing Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent notice of the terms of such extension. In the event that an Issuing Lender fails to satisfy the terms of this Section 3.2(g), such Issuing Lender shall not be credited for any portion of the applicable fees accrued on the applicable Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 3.3(a) during the period from the Business Day following the effectiveness of the Letter of Credit until the time such failure is remedied.

3.3 Fees, Commissions and Other Charges.

(a) Letter of Credit Fee.

(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants which participate therein, a letter of credit commission on each outstanding Letter of Credit as follows:

(B) in respect of each Documentary Letter of Credit, at a rate equal to the Applicable L/C Fee Rate of the initial face amount of such Documentary Letter of Credit,

provided that such letter of credit commissions with respect to each Letter of Credit shall not be in an amount less than $1,000, and, in each case, shall be payable to the Administrative Agent to be shared ratably among the L/C Participants and such Issuing Lender in accordance with their respective Stated Percentages for such Letter of Credit. Such commissions in respect of Standby Letters of Credit shall be payable in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date and in respect of each Documentary Letter of Credit shall be payable in advance upon the issuance thereof, and shall in each case be nonrefundable.

(ii) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the sole account of the applicable Issuing Lender, a letter of credit fronting commission on each outstanding Letter of Credit at a rate per annum equal to 0.20% on the average daily undrawn amount of such Letter of Credit during the period from the date of issuance through and including the date of drawing of the entire amount or expiration or termination thereof. Such fronting commission shall be payable in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date and shall in each such case be nonrefundable.

(b) Other Charges. In addition to the foregoing fees and commissions, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for such normal and customary out-of-pocket costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by such Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit (including, without limitation, an amendment fee of $200 for each amendment) (for the avoidance of doubt, such customary out-of-pocket costs and expenses shall include any customary fees, costs and expenses charged by any correspondent bank of such Issuing Lender in connection therewith).

(c) Distribution of Fees. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, distribute to the applicable Issuing Lender and the L/C Participants entitled thereto all fees and commissions received by the Administrative Agent for their respective accounts pursuant to this Section.

3.4 L/C Participations.

(a) Each Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce each Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant, subject to Section 2.7 irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from such Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such L/C Participant's own account and risk, an undivided participation interest in such Issuing Lender's obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender hereunder and the amounts paid by such Issuing Lender thereunder or in connection therewith equal to such L/C Participant's Stated Percentage for such Letter of Credit; provided that, with respect to each Lender (other than a Declining Lender), and after giving effect to such Lender's Stated Percentage of such Letter of Credit, such Lender's Extensions of Credit do not exceed such Lender's Maximum Credit Limit.

(b) Each L/C Participant's obligation to accept and purchase for such L/C Participant's own account and risk, an undivided interest in any Issuing Lender's obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit and the amounts paid by such Issuing Lender thereunder or in connection therewith equal to such L/C Participant's Stated Percentage for such Letter of Credit shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such L/C Participant may have against such Issuing Lender, the Borrower, or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of an Event of Default, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Loan Party, (iv) any breach of this Agreement by any Loan Party or any other Lender or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(c) If the Borrower fails to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.5 at the time and on the due date specified in such Section (the "Reimbursement Date"), such Issuing Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent (with a copy to the Borrower), which notice shall be provided on a Business Day, and specify in such notice the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount. Immediately upon receipt of such notice from the applicable Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent shall notify each L/C Participant of the Reimbursement Date, the Unreimbursed Amount and the amount of such L/C Participant's Stated Percentage for the related Letter of Credit and such L/C Participant (other than ING) shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender such percentage thereof, without setoff, deduction, recoupment, defense, or counterclaim of any nature whatsoever, provided, however, that, with respect to ING, the Administrative Agent will advance ING's portion of such Unreimbursed Amount on the date of such notice and ING shall be irrevocably obligated, regardless of whether it has affirmatively agreed to fund its Stated Percentage of the related Revolving Credit Loan made in accordance with Section 3.5(b), to pay to the Administrative Agent the amount of such Revolving Credit Loan advanced by the Administrative Agent on ING's behalf, plus interest (at the rate specified in the Fronting Fee Letter) at the Administrative Agent's office specified in Section 11.2 prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date that is one (1) Business Day after the date of such notice.

(d) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to Sections 3.4(a), 3.4(b) and 3.4(c) in respect of any Unreimbursed Amount is paid to the applicable Issuing Lender within one Business Day after such L/C Participant receives a copy of the notice delivered by such Issuing Lender to the Administrative Agent, pursuant to Section 3.4(c) (provided that, if such notice is not received by such L/C Participant prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time), the amount required to be paid shall be due on the second Business Day following the receipt of such notice), such L/C Participant shall pay on that Business Day to such Issuing Lender from its Applicable Lending Office for the Letter of Credit for which reimbursement is being sought on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate, as quoted by such Issuing Lender, during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during the period from and including the date of such Issuing Lender's payment of the demand or drawing which gave rise to such Unreimbursed Amount to the date of such payment by such L/C Participant to such Issuing Lender and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to this Section 3.4 is not in fact made available to the applicable Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within such one or two, as applicable, Business Day period, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon during the period referred to in clause (iii) of the preceding sentence at the rate per annum applicable to Cost of Funds Loans hereunder. A certificate of any Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 3.4 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(e) Whenever, at any time after the applicable Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its Stated Percentage of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(c) plus amounts payable under Section 3.4(c), such Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its Stated Percentage thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it.

3.5 Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower.

(a) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing or demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. If the Borrower receives notice (confirmed by telephone) from an Issuing Lender of a drawing or demand for payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time), on any Business Day, the Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Lender no later than 3:00 p.m. New York City time on such Business Day for the Unreimbursed Amount of such Letter of Credit. If the Borrower receives notice (confirmed by telephone) from an Issuing Lender of a drawing or demand for payment under a Letter of Credit at or after 12:00 p.m. (New York City time), on any Business Day, the Borrower shall so reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender no later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the Business Day upon which such notice was received by the Borrower. Such reimbursement shall be made directly to the applicable Issuing Lender at its Applicable Lending Office in immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars, in an amount equal to (i) the amount so paid by such Issuing Lender in connection with such drawing or payment and (ii) any taxes and any reasonable fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred in by such Issuing Lender (such amount prior to being reimbursed by the Borrower, the "Unreimbursed Amount").

(b) Each drawing or payment under any Letter of Credit that is not timely reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall (unless an event of the type described in Section 9(f) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower or the Termination Date shall have occurred, in which case the procedures specified in Section 3.4 for funding by L/C Participants shall apply) constitute a request by the Borrower for a borrowing pursuant to Section 2.4 of Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans in the amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount of such Letter of Credit, the proceeds of which shall be applied to repay such Unreimbursed Amount. The Borrower shall not be required to give notice of such Loans to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall not be required to give notice of such Loans to the Lenders, except notice under Section 3.4(c). So long as no Event of Default under Section 9.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing, the applicable Issuing Lender and each other Lender which shall have made the payment required by it under Section 3.4(c) shall be deemed to have approved and made Loans under this Section 3.5(b) automatically and without any action by the Borrower. The Borrowing Date with respect to such borrowing shall be the date of such drawing or payment.

(c) Interest shall be payable on any and all Unreimbursed Amounts from and including the date of payment by an Issuing Lender to the applicable beneficiary until payment by the Borrower (either in cash or pursuant to a Loan) in full at (i) for the first three Business Days, the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under Section 4.2(b), and (ii) thereafter, the rate set forth in Section 4.2(d) regardless of whether the Required Lenders have made the election referred to therein.

3.6 Obligations Absolute.

(a) The Borrower's obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set‑off, recoupment, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had against the applicable Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person.

If any Letter of Credit provides that payments are to be made by the applicable Issuing Lender's Nominated Person, neither such Issuing Lender nor such Nominated Person shall be responsible for the failure of any of the documents specified in such Letter of Credit to come into such Issuing Lender's possession or for any delay in connection therewith, and the Borrower's obligations under this Agreement shall not be affected by such failure or delay in the receipt by such Issuing Lender of any such documents.

(d) In addition to the exculpatory provisions and rights of the Lenders contained in Sections 3.6(a), (b) and (c), the parties agree that:

(i) any action taken by the applicable Issuing Lender or by any Nominated Person or any inaction or omission by such Issuing Lender or them under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the relative drafts or documents, if not taken or omitted with gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not put such Issuing Lender or such Issuing Lender's Nominated Person under any resulting liability to the Borrower; and

(ii) the applicable Issuing Lender shall not be excused from liability to the Borrower to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, punitive, consequential or exemplary, damages or claims, which are hereby waived by the Borrower), suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proved were caused by such Issuing Lender's gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable order) when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of

Credit comply with the terms thereof, provided that (A) such Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order and substantially comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and without any responsibility to make any inquiry as to the validity or accuracy thereof or any other inquiry, and may make payment upon presentation of documents or, in the case of lost or missing documents, letters of indemnity (in form and substance acceptable to such Issuing Lender in its sole discretion), that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (B) such Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit and (C) this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by such Issuing Lender when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the Borrower hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).

3.7 Role of the Issuing Lender.

(a) The responsibility of the Issuing Lenders to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit issued on behalf of the Borrower shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered by or on behalf of the beneficiary under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment appear on their face to be in conformity with such Letter of Credit. In addition, the Lenders and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing or demand for payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender thereof shall not have any responsibility to inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any document presented in connection with such drawing or demand for payment or the authority of the Person executing or delivering the same.

(b) Neither any Issuing Lender nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any Issuing Lender shall be liable to any Lender for: (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith in respect of any Letter of Credit at the request or with the approval or deemed approval of the Required Lenders; (ii) any action taken or omitted in respect of any Letter of Credit in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any document delivered in connection with the issuance or payment of such Letter of Credit; or (iv) any matter set forth in Section 3.6.

(c) The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against such beneficiary or transferee.

3.8 Successor Letter of Credit Issuer.

(a) The Issuing Lender may resign as Issuing Lender upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Issuing Lender shall resign, then the Borrower may appoint from among the Lenders a successor issuer of Letters of Credit, whereupon such successor issuer shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the resigning Issuing Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the term "Issuing Lender" shall mean such successor issuer of Letters of Credit effective upon such appointment. At the time such resignation shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay to the resigning Issuing Lender all accrued and unpaid fees payable by it pursuant to Section 3.3. The acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Lender hereunder in accordance with this Agreement, shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor issuer of Letters of Credit, in a form satisfactory to the Borrower and the Required

Lenders and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, such successor issuer of Letters of Credit shall become the "Issuing Lender" hereunder. After the resignation of the Issuing Lender hereunder, the resigning Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. In connection with any resignation pursuant to this Section 3.8 (but only to the extent that a successor issuer of Letters of Credit shall have been appointed), either (i) the Borrower, the resigning Issuing Lender and the successor issuer of Letters of Credit shall arrange to have any outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the resigning Issuing Lender replaced with Letters of Credit issued by the successor issuer of Letters of Credit or (ii) the Borrower shall cause the successor issuer of Letters of Credit, if such successor issuer is satisfactory to the resigning Issuing Lender (in its sole discretion), to issue "back-stop" Letters of Credit naming the resigning Issuing Lender as beneficiary for each outstanding Letter of Credit issued by the resigning Issuing Lender, which new Letters of Credit shall have a face amount equal to the Letters of Credit being back-stopped and the sole requirement for drawing on such new Letters of Credit shall be a drawing on the corresponding back-stopped Letters of Credit. After any resigning Issuing Lender's resignation as Issuing Lender, the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Issuing Lender shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it (A) while it was the Issuing Lender under this Agreement or (B) at any time with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it.

(b) To the extent that there are, at the time of any resignation as set forth in Section 3.8(a) above, any outstanding Letters of Credit, nothing herein shall be deemed to impact or impair any rights and obligations of any of the parties hereto with respect to such outstanding Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, any obligations related to the payment of fees or the reimbursement or funding of amounts drawn), except that the Borrower, the resigning Issuing Lender and the successor issuer of Letters of Credit shall have the obligations regarding outstanding Letters of Credit described in Section 3.8(a) above.

3.9 Letter of Credit Request. To the extent that any provision of any Application or Letter of Credit Request is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply.

In each case, any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof and shall reduce permanently the Maximum Amount then in effect by such amount.

4.2 Interest Rates and Payment Dates.

(a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Loan determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) Each Cost of Funds Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Cost of Funds Rate for such Cost of Funds Loan determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

(d) If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then if the Required Lenders so elect, during the continuance of such Event of Default (i) the principal amount of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations shall bear interest (as well after as before judgment) at the interest rate otherwise in effect plus 2.0% and (ii) any other amounts payable hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents not paid when due shall bear interest (after as well as before judgment) at a rate per annum equal to 5.0%.

(e) Interest shall be payable upon demand, or if no demand is made, shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) as to all Eurodollar Loans, to the extent the Borrower selects the Eurodollar Rate in connection with any request (A) to Continue an outstanding Eurodollar Loan, (B) for the Lenders to make a Eurodollar Loan or (C) to Convert any Base Rate Loan or Cost of Funds Loan into a Eurodollar Loan, and the Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin is less than the Cost of Funds Rate plus the Applicable Margin, then (I) such outstanding Eurodollar Loan shall automatically Convert to a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (II) any Eurodollar Loan requested to be made on the first day of the applicable Interest Period shall be made as a Base Rate Loan, (III) any Base Rate Loan requested to be Converted on the first day of the applicable Interest Period to a Eurodollar Loan shall Continue as a Base Rate Loan and (IV) any Cost of Funds Loan requested to be Converted on the first day of the applicable Interest Period to a Eurodollar Loan shall Continue as a Cost of Funds Loan and (ii) as to all Base Rate Loans (including, without limitation, any Eurodollar Loans that would otherwise have been Converted to Base Rate Loans pursuant to clause (i) of this Section 4.2(f)), to the extent (A) on any day with respect to any outstanding Base Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have determined that the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin is less than the Cost of Funds Rate plus the Applicable Margin or (B) the Borrower selects the Base Rate in connection with any request for the Lenders to make a Base Rate Loan or to Convert any Eurodollar Loan or Cost of Funds Loan into a Base Rate Loan, and the Administrative Agent shall have determined that the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin is less than the Cost of Funds Rate plus the Applicable Margin, then (I) such outstanding Base Rate Loan shall automatically Convert to a Cost of Funds Loan on the date of such determination by the Administrative Agent, (II) such outstanding Base Rate Loan shall automatically Convert to a Cost of Funds Loan on the day the Administrative Agent received the notice of Conversion from the Borrower, (III) any Base Rate Loan requested to be made shall be made as a Cost of Funds Loan, (IV) any Eurodollar Loan requested to be Converted to a Base Rate Loan shall be Converted to a Cost of Funds Loan and (V) any Cost of Funds Loan requested to be Converted to a Base Rate Loan shall Continue as a Cost of Funds Loan.

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

4.9 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans hereunder, each reduction of the Maximum Amount and each payment of the fees under Sections 3.3(a) shall be made pro rata according to the respective Stated Percentage of the Lenders. Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations (or participations therein) then held by the Lenders, but principal payments shall be applied first to Reimbursement Obligations, Base Rate Loans and thereafter to Eurodollar Loans or Cost of Funds Loans. Each payment of fees under Section 3.3(a) shall be made pro rata according to the respective Stated Percentages of the Lenders. Each reduction of the Maximum Amount pursuant to Section 4.1 shall be made pro rata according to the Stated Percentages of the Lenders. Payments shall be applied to accrued and unpaid interest, fees under Section 3.3(a) and the principal amount of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations prior to Cash Collateralizing L/C Obligations.

(b) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder on account of principal of Loans shall be accompanied by a payment in an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid interest on such Loans. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal (other than Daylight Overdraft Loans), interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Lenders, at the Administrative Agent's office specified in Section 11.2 in United States Dollars and in immediately available funds. Any payment made by the Borrower after 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day (other than on account of Daylight Overdraft Loans) shall be deemed to have been made on and, with respect to principal payments, interest shall continue to accrue until, the next following Business Day. All payments made by the Borrower on account of Daylight Overdraft Loans shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 4:30 p.m. (New York City time) on the Borrowing Date of such Daylight Overdraft Loan (or such later time determined by the Daylight Overdraft Lender in its sole discretion, such later time not to be later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the next Business Day following the Borrowing Date therefor) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Daylight Overdraft Lender at the Administrative Agent's office specified in Section 11.2 in United States Dollars and in immediately available funds. Any payment on account of Daylight Overdraft Loans made by the Borrower after the time specified in the immediately preceding

sentence on any Business Day shall be deemed to have been made on and, with respect to principal payments, interest shall continue to accrue until, the next following Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments, in the case of Revolving Credit Loans, to the relevant Lenders, in the case of Daylight Overdraft Loans, to the Daylight Overdraft Lender and, in the case of Swing Line Loans, to the Swing Line Lender, promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment obligation shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its Stated Percentage of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate or such higher overnight rate then in effect in accordance with banking industry rates or standard practices in New York, New York on interbank compensation, as determined by the Administrative Agent for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 4.9 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender's Stated Percentage of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount for its own account with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans on demand, from the Borrower (without duplication of the interest otherwise applicable thereto).

(d) The failure by any Lender to make a payment required under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether on account of any Loan, Letter of Credit or otherwise, shall not affect the obligations of any other Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or be released from its obligations hereunder or thereunder as a result thereof.

4.10 Requirements of Law.

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

(i) does or shall subject any Lender to any Tax or increased Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Note or any Eurodollar Loan or Cost of Funds Loan made by it, any Letter of Credit issued or participated in it by it or any participation by it in any Swing Line Loan or Daylight Overdraft Loan (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or Non-Excluded Taxes for which indemnification or additional costs are paid pursuant to Section 4.11) or change the basis or rate of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof;

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

(iii) does or shall impose on such Lender any other condition, cost or expense;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, Converting into, Continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans or Cost of Funds Loans or issuing, providing and maintaining Letters of Credit or holding an interest in an Issuing Lender's obligations thereunder or of holding a participation interest in Swing Line Loans or Cost of Funds Loans, or to reduce any amount receivable by such Lender in respect thereof;

then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly, after receiving notice as specified in clause (c) of this Section 4.10, pay such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable plus any Taxes thereon. For purposes of this Agreement, the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act and Basel III, and all rules, regulations, requests, guidelines or directives in connection with the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act or Basel III shall be deemed to have become effective, enacted and adopted after the date hereof.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any Person controlling such Lender with any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements or with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (in each case, whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof (including, without limitation, under or pursuant to Basel III and the Xxxx-Xxxxx Act) shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or such Person's capital as a consequence of this Agreement, its obligations (if any) or its Maximum Credit Limit hereunder or its obligations under Letters of Credit (issued by it or in which it has a participation interest) or in respect of its Loans or participations therein to a level below that which such Lender or such Person could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender's or such Person's policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity requirements) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction plus any Taxes thereon. In determining such amount or amounts, any Lender may use any method of averaging and attribution as it shall deem applicable.

(c) If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.10, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.10 submitted by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The agreements in this Section 4.10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(d) The Administrative Agent and each Lender or Transferee hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence of any circumstances entitling the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee to additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.10, the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions), at the sole expense of the Borrower, to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or materially reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole judgment of the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee in any material respect.

4.11 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of each Loan Party under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents to which such Loan Party is a party shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto, whether now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any taxation authority or other Governmental Authority (collectively, "Taxes") or Other Taxes, unless otherwise required by any Requirement of Law, excluding (i) Taxes imposed on the net income of the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or Transferee) and franchise taxes in lieu thereof as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or Transferee) and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such Tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than as a result of entering into this Agreement or the Loan Documents, performing any obligations hereunder or thereunder, receiving any payments hereunder or thereunder or enforcing any rights hereunder or thereunder) (ii) any Taxes that are attributable solely to the failure of any Lender to comply with Section 4.11(f) and (iii) any U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA (all such nonexcluded Taxes and Other Taxes, collectively or individually, "Non-Excluded Taxes"). If any Loan Party shall be required to deduct any Non-Excluded Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount (an "Additional Amount") necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to Additional Amounts payable under this Section 4.11) such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (iii) such Loan Party shall make such deductions and (iv) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Government Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, each Loan Party agrees to pay in accordance with applicable law any current or future stamp, intangibles, recording, documentary, excise, property, goods and services or value-added taxes, or similar taxes, charges or levies (including, without limitation, mortgage recording taxes and similar fees) imposed by any Governmental Authority that arise from any payment made hereunder or under any other Loan Documents, or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Documents (collectively, "Other Taxes").

(c) Each Loan Party hereby agrees to indemnify each Lender, each Agent and each Transferee for, and to hold each of them harmless against, the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes in respect of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Loan or any Letter of Credit and all payments received by it in respect of the foregoing, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.11, imposed on or paid by such Lender, an Agent or such Transferee, and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. The indemnity by each Loan Party provided for in this Section 4.11(c) shall apply and be made whether or not the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly or legally asserted. Amounts payable by any Loan Party under the indemnity set forth in this Section 4.11(c) shall be paid within ten (10) days from the date on which the applicable Lender, the Administrative Agent or the applicable Transferee, as the case may be, makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared by a Lender, or the Administrative Agent on its behalf and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount shall have been determined, absent manifest error, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes.

(d) Each Lender, each Agent and each Transferee pursuant to Section 4.11(a) shall take all reasonable actions (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) requested by any Loan Party to assist such Loan Party, at the sole expense of such Loan Party, to recover from the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority any Taxes in respect of which amounts were paid by such Loan Party pursuant to Section 4.11(a), (b) or (c) with respect to amounts paid or payable to such Lender, such Agent or such Transferee. However, neither any Lender, any Agent nor any Transferee shall be required to take any action that would be, in the sole judgment of such Lender, such Agent or such Transferee, legally inadvisable, or commercially or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender, such Agent or such Transferee in any respect.

(e) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any remittance or payment of Taxes, the applicable Loan Party (or any Person making such payment on behalf of such Loan Party) shall furnish to the applicable Lender or Agent or the applicable Transferee a certified copy of the original official receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(f) On or prior to the date hereof (or in the case of a transferee Lender, the date that it becomes a party to this Agreement), and thereafter when reasonably requested by the Borrower, each Lender or transferee that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States (a "Non-U.S. Lender") shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two properly completed and duly executed copies of (as applicable) IRS Form W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI or W-8IMY or, upon request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, in each case claiming a reduced rate (which may be zero) of U.S. federal withholding tax under Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code with respect to payments of interest hereunder as such Non-U.S. Lender may properly claim. In addition, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, such Non-U.S. Lender shall, on or prior to the date hereof (or in the case of a transferee Lender, the date that it becomes a party to this Agreement), and thereafter when reasonably requested by the Borrower, provide to the Administrative Agent in addition to the IRS Form W-8 required above a certificate representing that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a "bank" for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Borrower and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code), and such Non-U.S. Lender agrees that it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in the event any representation in such certificate is no longer accurate. Each Lender (or Transferee) that is a United States person as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or any subsequent or substitute versions thereof or successors thereto, certifying that such Lender (or Transferee) is entitled to a complete exemption from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax on payments made pursuant to this Agreement. Such forms shall be delivered by each Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a participant, on or before the date such participant becomes a participant hereunder) and on or before the date, if any, such Lender changes its Applicable Lending Office unless each of the Applicable Lending Office prior to such designation and the new Applicable Lending Office is located within the United States. In addition, each Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Lender. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.11(f), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 4.11(f) that such Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(g) No Loan Party shall be obligated to pay any additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Section 4.11(a), or to indemnify any Lender pursuant to Section 4.11(c), in respect of United States federal withholding taxes to the extent imposed as a result of (i) the failure of such Lender to deliver to the Borrower the form or forms, as applicable to such Lender, pursuant to Section 4.11(f), (ii) such form or forms not establishing a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax or the information or certifications made therein by the Lender being untrue or inaccurate on the date delivered in any material respect, or (iii) the Lender designating a successor Applicable Lending Office which has the effect of causing the Loan Parties to become obligated to make payments under this Section 4.11 in excess of those in effect immediately prior to such designation; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, each Loan Party shall be obligated to pay additional amounts to any such Lender pursuant to Section 4.11(a), and to indemnify any such Lender pursuant to Section 4.11(c), if (i) any such failure to deliver a form or forms or the failure of such form or forms to establish a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax or such inaccuracy or untruth contained therein resulted from a change in any applicable Law or any interpretation of any Law occurring after the Amended and Restated Effective Date, which change rendered such Lender no longer legally entitled to deliver such form or forms or otherwise ineligible for a complete exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax, or rendered the information or certifications made in such form or forms untrue or inaccurate in a material respect or (ii) the redesignation of the Lender's Applicable Lending Office was made at the request of the Borrower.

(h) The Administrative Agent and each Lender or Transferee hereby agrees that, upon the occurrence of any circumstances entitling the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee to additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.11, the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions), at the sole expense of the Borrower, to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or materially reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole judgment of the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent or such Lender or Transferee in any respect.

(i) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Loan Parties hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Loan Parties contained in this Section 4.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(j) Nothing contained in this Section 4.11 shall require any Agent or Lender (or any Transferee) to make available any of its tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary.

(k) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (k), "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. In addition, each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower for any withholding Tax attributable to such Lender or other penalties imposed in connection with any "withholdable payment," as defined in Section 1473 of the Internal Revenue Code, made to a Lender that is not a U.S. Person that has failed to comply with the reporting requirements or otherwise qualify for an exemption under FATCA.

4.12 Lending Offices. Loans of each Type made by any Lender shall be made and maintained at such Lender's Applicable Lending Office for Loans of such Type.

4.13 Extensions of Credit Reporting.

(a) Within five (5) Business Days after the end of each calendar month, each Issuing Lender shall deliver a report to the Administrative Agent, substantially in the form of Annex VI (a "Credit Utilization Summary"), setting forth, for each Letter of Credit issued or provided by such Issuing Lender, (i) the amount available to be drawn or utilized under such Letters of Credit as of the end of such calendar month and (ii) the amount of any drawings, payments or reductions of such Letters of Credit during such month, in each case, on an aggregate and per Letter of Credit basis. Upon receiving notice from the Borrower or the beneficiary under a Letter of Credit issued or provided by such Issuing Lender of a reduction or termination of such Letter of Credit, each Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof. Each Issuing Lender shall also deliver to the Administrative Agent, together with each Credit Utilization Summary and more frequently if necessary to permit the Administrative Agent to collect such fees, a list of all fees payable by the Borrower under Section 3.3(a) and Section 3.3(b) in connection with Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender.

(b) Within five (5) Business Days after receiving each Credit Utilization Summary from the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to each Lender a Credit Utilization Summary of all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit and Revolving Credit Loans, setting forth (i) for each Letter of Credit, the information referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 4.13(a) and (ii) for each Type of Revolving Credit Loan, (A) the amount outstanding under such Revolving Credit Loans as of the last day of such calendar month and (ii) the amount of any payments of such Revolving Credit Loans during such month, in each case, on an aggregate and per Letter of Credit basis.

4.14 [Intentionally Omitted].

4.15 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any actual loss or expense (including, without limitation, any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender) which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any failure by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, Conversion into or Continuation of Eurodollar Loans or Cost of Funds Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) any failure by the Borrower in making any prepayment or payment after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a payment or prepayment of Eurodollar Loans or Cost of Funds Loans (whether optional or mandatory, whether from proceeds of Collateral or otherwise) on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be presumptively correct in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder.

4.16 Inability to Determine Interest Rate.

(a) If, with respect to any Eurodollar Loan:

(i) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the relevant Eurodollar Base Rate for the applicable Interest Period, or

(ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that the relevant Eurodollar Base Rate determined or to be determined for the applicable Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively determined by them absent manifest error) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

then, subject to Section 4.16(c), the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter and:

(A) each outstanding Eurodollar Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Loan;

(B) the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Loans or to Convert Base Rate Loans or Cost of Funds Loans into Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist;

(C) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of the applicable Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans;

(D) any Base Rate Loans that were to have been Converted on the first day of the applicable Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall Continue as Base Rate Loans; and

(E) any Cost of Funds Loans that were to have been Converted on the first day of the applicable Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall Continue as Base Rate Loans.

(b) If, with respect to any Cost of Funds Loan:

(i) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the relevant Cost of Funds Rate for the applicable Interest Period, or

(ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that the relevant Cost of Funds Rate determined or to be determined for the applicable Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively determined by them absent manifest error) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

then, subject to Section 4.16(c), the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter and:

(A) each outstanding Cost of Funds Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Loan;

(B) the obligations of the Lenders to make Cost of Funds Loans or to Convert Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans into Cost of Funds Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist;

(C) any Cost of Funds Loans requested to be made on the first day of the applicable Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans;

(D) any Base Rate Loans that were to have been Converted on the first day of the applicable Interest Period to Cost of Funds Loans shall Continue as Base Rate Loans; and

(E) any Eurodollar Loans that were to have been Converted on the first day of the applicable Interest Period to Cost of Funds Loans shall Continue as Base Rate Loans.

(c) If, with respect to any Base Rate Loan (including, without limitation, any Eurodollar Loan that would otherwise have been Converted into a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 4.16(a) and any Cost of Funds Loan that would otherwise have been Converted into a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 4.16(b)), the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate is less than the Applicable Margin plus Cost of Funds Rate, then the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lender as soon as practicable thereafter and:

(i) each outstanding Base Rate Loan will automatically, on the first day after the Administrative Agent received such notice, including, without limitation, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 4.16(a) or Section 4.16(b), from the Required Lenders, Convert into a Cost of Funds Loan;

(ii) the obligations of the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or to Convert Eurodollar Loans or Cost of Funds Loans into Base Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the Required Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist;

(iii) any Base Rate Loans requested to be made shall be made as Cost of Funds Loans;

(iv) any Eurodollar Loans that were to have been Converted to Base Rate Loans shall be Converted into Cost of Funds Loans; and

(v) any Cost of Funds Loans that were to have been Converted to Base Rate Loans shall Continue as Cost of Funds Loans.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly revoke (i) any such notice pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (b)(i) above if the Administrative Agent determines that the relevant circumstances have ceased to exist and (ii) any such notice pursuant to clause (a)(ii), (b)(ii) or (c) above upon receipt of notice from the Required Lenders that the relevant circumstances described in such clause (a)(ii), (b)(ii) or (c) have ceased to exist.

4.17 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans or Cost of Funds Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the willingness of such Lender hereunder to consider requests to make Eurodollar Loans or Cost of Funds Loans, Continue Eurodollar Loans or Cost of Funds Loans as such and Convert Base Rate Loans or Cost of Funds Loans to Eurodollar Loans and Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans to Cost of Funds Loans shall forthwith be cancelled and (b) such Lender's Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans or Cost of Funds Loans, if any, shall be Converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such Conversion of a Eurodollar Loan or Cost of Funds Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 4.15.

4.18 Defaulting Lender.

(a) (i) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Lender may, in its sole discretion, require such Defaulting Lender or, in the event such Defaulting Lender fails to do so, require the Borrower to deposit cash collateral with the Collateral Agent in an aggregate amount equal to such Defaulting Lender's participations in any requested or outstanding Swing Line Loans, and each Defaulting Lender and the Borrower hereby grants a first priority security interest in such cash collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the sole benefit of the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Daylight Overdraft Lender may, in its sole discretion, require such Defaulting Lender or, in the event such Defaulting Lender fails to do so, require the Borrower to deposit cash collateral with the Collateral Agent in an aggregate amount equal to such Defaulting Lender's participations in any requested or outstanding Daylight Overdraft Loans, and each Defaulting Lender and the Borrower hereby grants a first priority security interest in such cash collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the sole benefit of the Daylight Overdraft Lender.

(b) Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then each Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, require such Defaulting Lender to deposit cash collateral with the Collateral Agent or, in the event such Defaulting Lender fails to do so, require the Borrower to deposit Cash Collateral with the Collateral Agent in an aggregate amount equal to 105% of such Defaulting Lender's participations in any requested or outstanding Letters of Credit, and each Defaulting Lender and the Borrower hereby grants, a first priority security interest in such cash collateral or Cash Collateral, as applicable, provided by it in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the sole benefit of the applicable Issuing Lender.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if at any time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(i) [Intentionally Omitted]

(ii) With respect to any L/C Obligations, Swing Line Loans, Daylight Overdraft Loans and participations in L/C Obligations, Daylight Overdraft Loans and Swing Line Loans of the Defaulting Lender (including, without limitation, any of them that exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or thereafter) (the "Defaulting Lender's Exposure"):

(A) such Defaulting Lender's Exposure shall automatically be reallocated (without further action of any party) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders (other than Declining Lenders) ratably in accordance with their respective Stated Percentages (determined as if the applicable Letter of Credit were issued or Swing Line Loan or Daylight Overdraft Loan were made at such time) (calculated without regard to any Defaulting Lender's Maximum Credit Limit) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 are satisfied at such time and (y) the Extensions of Credit of each Non-Defaulting Lender do not exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender's Maximum Credit Limit;

(B) if the reallocation described in paragraph (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, then the Borrower shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender or the Daylight Overdraft Lender, as applicable, (1) deliver to the Collateral Agent Cash Collateral for such Defaulting Lender's Exposure relating to L/C Obligations, (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to paragraph (A) above) as otherwise provided in this Agreement for so long as such L/C Obligations are outstanding, (2) immediately repay the non-reallocated amount of each Swing Line Loan for so long as such Swing Line Loan or any participation therein is outstanding and (3) immediately repay the non-reallocated amount of each Daylight Overdraft Loan for so long as such Daylight Overdraft Loan or any participation therein is outstanding;

(D) to the extent the Defaulting Lender's Exposure is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to clause (A) above, the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.3(a) shall be adjusted in accordance with such Non-Defaulting Lenders' Maximum Credit Limits (disregarding the Maximum Credit Limits of any Defaulting Lender);

(E) if any Defaulting Lender's Exposure is not cash collateralized by such Defaulting Lender, Cash Collateralized by the Borrower, reallocated or prepaid pursuant to this Section 4.18, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Lender, the Swing Line Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 3.3(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender's Exposure that is not cash collateralized, Cash Collateralized, reallocated or prepaid shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders, the Daylight Overdraft Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, until such Defaulting Lender's Exposure is fully cash collateralized or Cash Collateralized as set forth in this Section 4.18, reallocated and/or prepaid;

(F) (i) no Issuing Lender shall be required to consider agreeing to issue, provide, amend or increase any Credit, unless it is satisfied in its sole discretion that the related exposure will be 105% covered by the Maximum Credit Limits of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or Cash Collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 4.18(b) or Section 4.18(c)(ii)(B), and participating interests in any such newly issued, provided or increased Credit shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 3.4 (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein) and (ii) neither the Swing Line Lender nor the Daylight Overdraft Lender shall be required to consider agreeing to advance any Swing Line Loan or Daylight Overdraft Loan, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Maximum Credit Limits of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or Cash Collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 4.18(a) or the Borrower will repay the non-reallocated amount of each Swing Line Loan and/or Daylight Overdraft Loan in accordance with Section 4.18(c)(ii)(B);

(G) any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account and subject to any applicable Requirements of Law, and be applied:

(1) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agents hereunder,

(2) second, to the payment pro rata of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders, the Daylight Overdraft Lender and/or the Swing Line Lender hereunder,

(3) third, to the payment pro rata to (x) the cash collateralization, as set forth in this Section 4.18, of any participating interest in any Letter of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund cash collateral for its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, pro rata among such Letters of Credit, as determined by the Administrative Agent, and (y) the repayment of any uncovered portion of any outstanding Swing Line Loans and Daylight Overdraft Loans, pro rata among such Loans,

(5) fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Non-Defaulting Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Non-Defaulting Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement,

(6) sixth, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement, and

(7) seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, that notwithstanding this clause seventh, if such payment is (x) a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Unreimbursed Amount which a Defaulting Lender has not funded in accordance with its participation obligations hereunder and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of, and Unreimbursed Amounts owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans, or Unreimbursed Amounts owed to, any Defaulting Lender.

(d) Each Defaulting Lender shall indemnify the Borrower, the Agents, the Issuing Lenders, the Daylight Overdraft Lender, the Swing Line Lender and each Non-Defaulting Lender from and against any and all loss, damage or expenses, including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and, in the case of the Agents, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing Line Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender or any Non-Defaulting Lender, funds (if any) advanced by the Agents, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing Line Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender or by any Non-Defaulting Lender, on account of such Defaulting Lender's failure to timely fund its applicable share of a Loan or to otherwise perform its obligations under the Loan Documents.

(e) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, each Issuing Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender and the Swing Line Lender agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the L/C Obligations, Daylight Overdraft Loans, participations in Daylight Overdraft Loans, Swing Line Loans, participations in Swing Line Loans, and participations in L/C Obligations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender's Maximum Credit Limit and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans, Maximum Credit Limit and/or L/C Obligations, or participations therein of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans, Maximum Credit Limits and/or Obligations in accordance with its applicable share thereof. Each Defaulting Lender shall further indemnify and hold harmless the Agents, the Issuing Lenders, the Daylight Overdraft Lender, the Swing Line Lender and each Non-Defaulting Lender from any actual loss or expense (including, without limitation, any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender) which the Agents, the Issuing Lenders, the Daylight Overdraft Lender, the Swing Line Lender and each Non-Defaulting Lender may sustain or incur as a direct consequence of the readjustment and purchase referred to in this clause (e) above.

(f) At any time during a Default Period, the Borrower may, upon three (3) Business Days prior notice to the applicable Defaulting Lender (so long as such Default Period remains in effect at the end of such notice period), require such Defaulting Lender to assign all right, title and interest that it may have in, and its participations in, all Loans, Letters of Credit and any other Obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the Loan Documents to another Lender (if another Lender will consent to purchase such right, title and interest and participations) or another Person in accordance with and subject to the terms of Section 11.20 of this Agreement, if such Person can be found by the Borrower, for a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount such Obligations plus the amount of any interest and fees accrued and owing to such Defaulting Lender as of the date of such assignment plus any amount payable under Section 4.15.

5.6 No Material Litigation.

Except as set forth on Schedule 5.9, no claim has been asserted or is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such Intellectual Property, nor does any Loan Party know of any valid basis for any such claim, except any claim that could not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Except as set forth on Schedule 5.11, each Loan Party and each of their respective Tax Affiliates has complied in all material respects with all applicable Laws relating to the withholding and payment of taxes and has timely withheld from employee wages and paid over to the proper Governmental Authorities all amounts required to be so withheld and paid over for all periods under all applicable Laws.

(b) There are no Liens for Taxes against the Collateral or any property of any Loan Party or any of their Subsidiaries and no claim is being asserted with respect to Taxes which could result in such Liens, except for statutory liens for Taxes not yet due and payable or for Taxes the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and, in each case, with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of such Loan Party.

5.12 Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit will be used for "purchasing" or "carrying" any "margin stock" within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under Regulation U, or for any purpose which violates, or which would be inconsistent with, the provisions of the regulations of the Board. If requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G‑3 or FR Form U‑1 referred to in said Regulation U.

5.13 ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor any failure to satisfy the "minimum funding standard" (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the six‑year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any Single Employer Plan that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and each Plan (and, to the knowledge of any Loan Party, each Multiemployer Plan and multiemployer welfare plan maintained pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement with respect to which any Loan Party has any liability) has complied in all respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and the constituent documents of such Plan, except for instances of non-compliance that, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred during such six-year period or is reasonably expected to occur (other than a termination described in Section 4041(b) of ERISA), and no Lien in favor of a Plan or the PBGC in connection with any Plan has arisen during such six-year period or is reasonably expected to arise. Except to the extent that any such excess could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits. Except to the extent that such liability could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (a) none of the Loan Parties nor any Commonly Controlled Entity have had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan, and (b) none of the Loan Parties would become subject to any liability under ERISA if a Loan Party or any Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made. To the knowledge of the Loan Parties, no such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization, Insolvent or terminating or is reasonably expected to be in Reorganization, become Insolvent or be terminated. Except to the extent that any such excess could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the present value (determined using actuarial and other assumptions which are reasonable in respect of the benefits provided and the employees participating) of the liability of the Loan Parties and each Commonly Controlled Entity for post-retirement benefits to be provided to their current and former employees under Plans which are welfare benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) other than such liability disclosed in the financial statements of the Loan Parties does not, in the aggregate, exceed the assets under all such Plans allocable to such benefits. None of the Loan Parties or any Commonly Controlled Entity has engaged in a prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code in connection with any Plan that would subject any Loan Party to liability under ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no other circumstance existing which may give rise to a liability in relation to any Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the assets of the Borrower constitute "plan assets" for purposes of Section 406 of ERISA and/or Section 4975 of the Code, or for purposes of any other applicable statute, regulation or other rule which is materially similar to Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

5.14 Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. None of the Loan Parties is an "investment company," or a company "controlled" by an "investment company," within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940. None of the Loan Parties is subject to regulation under any Federal or State statute or regulation which limits its ability to incur Indebtedness or grant Liens on its assets. None of the Loan Parties or any of their Affiliates is subject to the jurisdiction of the FERC or any rules and regulations promulgated thereby.

5.15 Subsidiaries. Schedule 5.15 sets forth as of the Amended and Restated Effective Date the name of each direct or indirect Subsidiary of each Loan Party, their respective forms of organization, their respective jurisdictions of organization, the total number of issued and outstanding shares or other interests of Capital Stock thereof, the classes and number of issued and outstanding shares or other interests of Capital Stock of each such class, and with respect to each Loan Party, the name of each holder of Capital Stock thereof and the number of shares or other interests of such Capital Stock held by each such holder and the percentage of all outstanding shares or other interests of such class of Capital Stock held by such holders.

5.16 Security Documents.

(a) The provisions of each Security Document are effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties a legal, valid and enforceable Lien in all right, title and interest of the Borrower in the "Collateral" described therein.

(b) When proper UCC financing statements or other applicable filings listed in Schedule 5.16 have been filed in the offices in the jurisdictions listed in Schedule 5.16, the Security Agreement shall constitute a Perfected First Lien on all right, title and interest of the Borrower in the Collateral described therein, which can be perfected by such filing, prior and superior in right to any other Person subject to any Permitted Borrowing Base Liens, in the case of assets in the Borrowing Base, or Liens permitted under Section 8.3 in the case of other assets.

(c) When an Account Control Agreement has been entered into with respect to each Pledged Account, the Security Agreement shall constitute a Perfected First Lien on all right, title and interest of the Borrower in the portion of the Collateral described therein that consists of Pledged Accounts, prior and superior in right to any other Person subject to any Permitted Financial Management Liens.

5.17 Accuracy and Completeness of Information. All factual information, reports and other papers and data with respect to the Loan Parties or any of their respective Subsidiaries furnished, and all factual statements and representations made, to the Agents or the Lenders by any Loan Party, or on behalf of any Loan Party, were, at the time the same were so furnished or made, when taken together with all such other factual information, reports and other papers and data previously so furnished in connection with this Agreement and the Extensions of Credit hereunder and all such other factual statements and representations previously so made in connection with this Agreement and the Extensions of Credit hereunder, complete and correct in all material respects, to the extent necessary to give the Agents and the Lenders true and accurate knowledge of the subject matter thereof in all material respects, and did not as of the date so furnished or made, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the same were made.

No property insurance covering any of the Collateral names any loss payee or additional insured other than the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties. Except as set forth on Schedule 5.19 (as updated from time to time by the Borrower with the written consent of the Required Lenders), no Loan Party has been refused insurance for which it applied or had any policy of insurance terminated (other than at its request).

5.20 Solvency. As of the date hereof, the Amended and Restated Effective Date, and each other date of determination, after giving effect to Loans and Letters of Credit to be made, issued or provided on or prior to such date, (i) the amount of the "present fair saleable value" of the assets of the Loan Parties, each on an individual basis, and of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries taken as a whole, will, as of such date, exceed the amount of all "liabilities of the Loan Parties, each on an individual basis, and of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries taken as a whole, contingent or otherwise", as of such date, as such quoted terms are determined in accordance with applicable federal and state laws governing determinations of the insolvency of debtors, (ii) the present fair saleable value of the assets of the Loan Parties, each on an individual basis, and of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries taken as a whole, will, as of such date, be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the liabilities of the Loan Parties, each on an individual basis, and of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries taken as a whole, on its respective debts as such debts become absolute and matured, (iii) the Loan Parties, each on an individual basis, and the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries taken as a whole, will not have, as of such date, an "unreasonably small amount of capital" with which to conduct their respective businesses, as such quoted term is determined in accordance with applicable U.S. federal and state Laws governing the determination of insolvency of debtors and (iv) the Loan Parties, each on an individual basis, and the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries taken as a whole, will be able to pay their respective debts as they mature.

The Borrower hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Issuing Lenders and, in the case of any Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Participants, a security interest in such Cash Collateral to secure all obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Cash Collateralized amounts shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to the payment of Reimbursement Obligations with respect to drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the Notes. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the Notes shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrower. The Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Lenders and, in the case of any Letter of Credit, the applicable L/C Participants, such further documents and instruments as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to evidence the creation and perfection of the within security interest in such Cash Collateral account.

IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT PROVIDING FOR SPECIFIC EVENTS OF DEFAULT BE CONSTRUED TO WAIVE, LIMIT OR OTHERWISE MODIFY THE DEMAND NATURE OF (I) THE LOANS WHICH MAY BE MADE PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND (II) THE REQUIREMENT TO CASH COLLATERALIZE LETTERS OF CREDIT WHICH MAY BE ISSUED PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THE BORROWER HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE LENDERS' RIGHT TO DEMAND PAYMENT OR CASH COLLATERALIZATION AT ANY TIME IS ABSOLUTE AND UNCONDITIONAL.

SECTION 10.

THE AGENTS

10.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Agents as the agents of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against any Agent.

10.2 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys‑in‑fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys‑in‑fact selected by it with reasonable care.

117

10.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates (each an "Agent-Related Person") shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its or such Person's own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, in any audit or due diligence report prepared by the internal auditor of any Agent, each of which is to be accepted by each Lender without representation or warranty by any Agent and without recourse to any Agent) or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party.

10.4 Reliance by Agents. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Note, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, electronic communication (including electronic mail), cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent without gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agents may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with such Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of Required Lenders, as it deems appropriate or as otherwise required by Section 11.1 or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, or as otherwise required by Section 11.1 and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans and all other Obligations.

10.5 Notice of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless such Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "notice of default." In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

10.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that none of the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Loan Party or any audit or due diligence review prepared by the internal auditor of any Agent, shall be deemed to constitute any

118

representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties and made its own decision to extend credit to the Borrower hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party which may come into the possession of such Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys‑in‑fact or Affiliates. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent shall have any duty to monitor or verify the Collateral used to calculate the Borrowing Base or the reporting requirements or the contents of reports delivered by the Borrower. Each Lender assumes the responsibility of keeping itself informed at all times.

10.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Stated Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and the cash collateralization of the L/C Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Maximum Credit Limits, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that, no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting solely from such Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable order. The agreements in this Section 10.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all amounts payable hereunder and the cash collateralization of the L/C Obligations.

10.8 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans and other extensions of credit to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower and the other Loan Parties as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to the Loans and other Extensions of Credit made by it, if any, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms "Lender" and "Lenders" shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

10.9 Successor Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days' notice to the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor Administrative Agent for the Lenders, which successor Administrative Agent shall be approved by the Borrower (unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing), whereupon such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to the

119

rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term "Administrative Agent" shall mean such successor Administrative Agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent's rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans or other Obligations. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 10 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If no successor Administrative Agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent's notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of such Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

(b) The Collateral Agent may, at any time, by notice to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, resign as Collateral Agent hereunder, whereupon the duties, rights, obligations and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent hereunder shall automatically be assumed by, and inure to the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, without any further act by the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

(c) After any retiring Agent's resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Section 10 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

10.10 Collateral Matters.

(a) The Collateral Agent is authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Lenders, from time to time to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the Loan Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

(b) The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Maximum Amount, the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit and the payment in full of all Loans and all other Obligations known to the Administrative Agent and payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except indemnification obligations for which no claim has been made and of which no Responsible Person of any Loan Party has knowledge); (ii) constituting property sold or to be sold or Disposed of as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by all or the requisite number of the Lenders as set forth in Section 11.1. Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent's authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 10.10; provided that, the absence of any such confirmation for whatever reason shall not affect the Collateral Agent's rights under this Section 10.10.

(c) The Collateral Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in fact selected by it with reasonable care.

(d) The Collateral Agent and the Issuing Lenders shall be entitled to all rights, indemnities and limitations on liability under this Section 10 available to the Administrative Agent to the same extent as if each reference to the Administrative Agent in this Section 10 were a reference to the Collateral Agent and the Issuing Lenders.

120

10.11 The Agents and Arranger. None of the Syndication Agent, the Documentation Agent, the Arranger or Bookrunner, in its capacity as such, shall have any duties or responsibilities, nor shall any of them incur any liability in such capacity, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic and electronic mail notices) believed in good faith by the Administrative Agent to be given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice believed in good faith by the Administrative Agent to be given by or on behalf of the Borrower.

11.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any notice or demand in similar or other circumstances, except as specifically required hereby. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

11.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made herein, in the other Loan Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans, the issuance of Letters of Credit and other Extensions of Credit hereunder.

11.5 Release of Collateral and Guarantee Obligations.

(a) Upon any sale or other transfer of any Collateral that is permitted under the Loan Documents by any Loan Party or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the Lien granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 10.10 hereof, the Lien in such Collateral (but not the proceeds thereof) shall automatically terminate after application of such proceeds in accordance with the Loan Documents and any guarantee obligations under any Loan Document of any Person being Disposed of in such Disposition shall automatically terminate, in each case, to the extent necessary to permit consummation of such Disposition in accordance with the Loan Documents.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, when all Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, the Maximum Amount has irrevocably terminated and all Letters of Credit shall have terminated or expired, upon request of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender) take such actions as shall be required to release (without recourse to or representation or warranty by any Agent) its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations under any Loan Document. Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

11.6 Payment of Expenses and Taxes; Indemnity. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse each Agent, the Lead Arranger and the Bookrunner for all its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable out-of-pocket legal fees and

124

expenses, and printing, reproduction, document delivery (including via DebtDomain or similar web-based service)) incurred in connection with the syndication, development, preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agents, the Lead Arranger and the Bookrunner, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender, the Swing Line Lender, the Issuing Lenders and each Agent for all its documented costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents or any restructuring or "work-out" related hereto and thereto, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of counsel to each Lender and of counsel to the Agents, (c) to pay or reimburse each Agent for its documented costs and expenses incurred in connection with inspections performed pursuant to Sections 7.6 and 7.9, and any other due diligence performed in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including (i) the documented fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agents, and (ii) the costs and expenses associated with lien searches, and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Issuing Lenders, the Daylight Overdraft Lender, the Swing Line Lender and each Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other similar taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent (including the determination of whether or not any such waiver or consent is required) under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (e) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Issuing Lenders, the Daylight Overdraft Lender, the Swing Line Lender and each Agent, and each of their respective officers, employees, directors, trustees, agents, advisors, affiliates and controlling persons (each, an "Indemnitee"), harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented legal fees) with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any such other documents, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing relating to the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or any of the Properties (all the foregoing in this clause (e), collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities"); provided that, the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities, to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities (i) are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, or (ii) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee's obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final, non-appealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. The Borrower also agrees that no Indemnitee shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) to the Borrower or the Borrower's Subsidiaries or Affiliates or to the Borrower's or its equity holders or creditors arising out of, related to or in connection with any aspect of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent of direct (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive) damages determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted directly from such Indemnitee's gross negligence or willful misconduct. It is further agreed that the Indemnitees shall have liability only to the Borrower (as opposed to any other person). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent such damages are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. The agreements in this Section 11.6 shall survive repayment of the Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder and termination of this Agreement.

125

11.7 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the Agents and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender and the Administrative Agent (and any purported such assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent of each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall be null and void).

(b) Any Lender may, in accordance with applicable Law, at any time sell to one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities other than a natural person, the Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of the Borrower (individually a "Participant" and, collectively, the "Participants") participating interests in any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation owing to such Lender, any Maximum Credit Limit of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (a "Participation") without consent of or notice to any other party. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender's obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan, Reimbursement Obligation, Maximum Credit Limit or other interest for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Borrower and the Agents shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In no event shall any Participant under any such Participation have any right to approve any amendment to or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that its consent or approval is required to be obtained by a Lender under the applicable participation agreement with such Participant for any such amendment, waiver or consent that would reduce the principal of, or the stated rate of interest on, the Loans, Reimbursement Obligation or any fees payable hereunder, or postpone the date of the final maturity of the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, in each case to the extent subject to such Participation. The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due or unpaid during an Event of Default, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement; provided that, in purchasing such participating interest, such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as provided in Section 11.8(a) as fully as if it were a Lender hereunder. The Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of, and bound by the obligations imposed on the Lenders in, Sections 4.10, 4.11 and 4.15 with respect to its participation in the Maximum Credit Limit and the Loans and other Extensions of Credit outstanding from time to time as if it were a Lender; provided that, in the case of Section 4.11, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said Section; provided further that a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment in the case of Sections 4.10, 4.11 and 4.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the Participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the Participation is made with the prior written consent of the Borrower expressly acknowledging such Participant may receive a greater benefit; provided, further that, a Participant that would be a Non-U.S. Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.11 to the extent such Participant fails to comply with Section 4.11(f) as though it were a Lender.

126

(c) Any Lender may, in accordance with applicable Law, at any time and from time to time assign to any Lender or any Affiliate or Approved Fund thereof, or, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing Line Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender and, except as provided below in this Section 11.7(c), the Borrower, to any other bank or financial institution (the "Assignee"), all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of Exhibit D, appropriately completed (an "Assignment and Acceptance"), executed by such Assignee, such assigning Lenders (and, in the case of an Assignee that is not then a Lender or any Affiliate or Approved Fund thereof, by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing Line Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender and the Borrower) and attaching the Assignee's relevant tax forms, administrative details and wiring instructions, and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register; provided that (i) each such assignment to an Assignee (other than any Lender) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (other than in the case of (A) an assignment of all of a Lender's interests under this Agreement or (B) an assignment to an Affiliate or Approved Fund of the Assignor), unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower (such amount to be aggregated in respect of assignments by any Lender and the affiliates or Approved Funds thereof), (ii) in the case of an assignment by a Lender to a Bank CLO managed by such Lender or an affiliate of such Lender, unless such assignment to such Bank CLO has been consented to by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing Line Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower, the assigning Lender shall retain the sole right to approve any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, the Assignment and Acceptance between such Lender and such Bank CLO may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of such Bank CLO, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to Section 11.1, and (iii) each Assignee shall comply with the provisions of Section 4.11(f). Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with the Maximum Credit Limit as set forth therein, and (y) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement, such assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto, except as to Sections 4.10, 4.11 and 4.15 in respect of the period prior to such effective date). Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 11.7, (1) the consent of the Borrower and its execution of an Assignment and Acceptance shall not be required, and, unless requested by the Assignee and/or the assigning Lender, new Notes shall not be required to be executed and delivered by the Borrower, for any assignment which occurs at any time when any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (2) the Borrower shall not unreasonably withhold or delay in providing any consent or executing any Assignment and Acceptance otherwise required under this Section 11.7. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.7 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a Participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section 11.7. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall, at any time, assign any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to any natural person, the Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of the Borrower.

127

(d) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain at the address of the Administrative Agent referred to in Section 11.2 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a record of each Participation and a register (the "Register") for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders (including all Assignees, successors and Participants) and the Maximum Credit Limit of, and principal amounts of the Loans and other Obligations owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may (and, in the case of any Loan or other Obligation hereunder not evidenced by a Note, shall) treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of a Loan or other Obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any assignment of any Loan or other Obligation hereunder, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. If any Lender sells a Participation as described in Section 11.7(b), it shall provide to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Borrower, or maintain as agent of the Borrower, the information described in this paragraph and permit the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to review such information as reasonably needed for the Administrative Agent or the Borrower to comply with its obligations under this Agreement or under any applicable Law.

(e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee (and, in the case of an Assignee that is not then a Lender, by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swing Line Lender, the Daylight Overdraft Lender and, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower), together with payment to the Administrative Agent by the assigning Lender of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (which processing fee may be waived by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the applicable Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Lenders and the Borrower.

(f) [Intentionally Omitted]

(g) For avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 11.7 concerning assignments of Loans and other Extensions of Credit and Notes relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, (i) any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank in accordance with applicable Law and (ii) any pledge or assignment by a Lender which is a fund to its trustee for the benefit of such trustee and/or its investors to secure its obligations under any indenture or Governing Documents to which it is a party; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender may, with notice to, but without consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and in accordance with the definition of "Conduit Lender" set forth in Section 1.1 hereof and the terms of this Section 11.7(h), designate a Conduit Lender and fund any of the Loans or Unreimbursed Amounts which such Lender is obligated to make or pay hereunder by causing such Conduit Lender to fund such Loans or Unreimbursed Amounts on behalf of such Lender. Any Conduit Lender may, without notice to, and without the consent of, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in Section 11.7(c), assign any or all of the Loans or Unreimbursed Amounts it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender. The Borrower, each Lender and each Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar Law in connection with any obligation of such Conduit Lender under the Loan Documents, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may (i) with the prior written consent of Borrower and the Required Lenders and with the payment of the processing fee required hereunder, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations to any financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such Conduit Lender to support the funding or maintenance of Loans or Reimbursement Obligations by such Conduit Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans, its Reimbursement Obligations and the Borrower to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such Conduit Lender. This Section 11.7(h) may not be amended without the written consent of any Conduit Lender directly affected thereby.

128

11.8 Adjustments; Set-off.

(a) If any Lender (a "Benefited Lender") shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans or Reimbursement Obligations, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 9(f), or otherwise), in excess of the amount such Benefited Lender is otherwise entitled to under Sections 4.7 and 4.9, as applicable at such time, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender's Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; except that with respect to any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender by virtue of such Lender failing to fund its required share (if any) of any Revolving Credit Loan, Swing Line Loan, Refunded Swing Line Loan, Swing Line Participation Amount, Daylight Overdraft Loan, Refunded Daylight Overdraft Loan, Daylight Overdraft Participation Amount or an L/C Obligation, such Defaulting Lender's pro rata share of the excess payment shall be allocated to the Lender (or the Lenders, pro rata) that funded such Defaulting Lender's required share (if any); provided, however, that (i) if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest and (ii) the provisions of this Section 11.8(a) shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in or other interest in any of its Loans and Reimbursement Obligation. The Borrower agrees that each Lender so purchasing a portion of another Lender's Loan may exercise all rights of payment (including, without limitation, rights of set-off) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Lender were the direct holder of such portion.

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

THE BORROWER UNDERSTANDS THAT WITHOUT REASON, CAUSE OR PRIOR NOTICE, THE LENDERS MAY CEASE ADVANCING LOANS AND ISSUING LETTERS OF CREDIT AND MAY MAKE DEMAND FOR PAYMENT (AND CASH COLLATERALIZATION WITH RESPECT TO OUTSTANDING LETTERS OF CREDIT) OF ALL OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWER TO THE LENDERS AT ANY TIME. THE BORROWER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS TO THE LENDERS THAT THE BORROWER AND THE OTHER LOAN PARTIES AWARE OF THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH CONDUCTING BUSINESS UTILIZING AN UNCOMMITTED FACILITY.

11.20 Replacing Lenders.

(a) If (i) any Lender invokes Section 4.16, (ii) any Lender requests compensation under Section 4.10, (iii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.11, or (iv) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, in each such case, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent (A) require any such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 11.7), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) or (B) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, prepay in full all outstanding Obligations owed to any such Lender and terminate the Maximum Credit Limit of such Lender; provided that (x) the Borrower shall have received the prior consent of the Administrative Agent, the Daylight Overdraft Lender, the Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Lenders, which consent in each case shall not unreasonably be withheld, (y) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Revolving Credit Loans and participations in L/C Obligations, Daylight Overdraft Loans and Swing Line Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts, including, without limitation, any compensation or additional amounts the Borrower is required to pay such Lender hereunder including obligations arising under Section 4.15 as a result of such replacement or prepayment and, in the case of a prepayment pursuant to clause (B) above, all outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees), as applicable, and (z) in the case of any assignment pursuant to clause (A) above resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 4.10 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 4.11, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. Nothing in this Section 11.20 shall be deemed to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender.

133

(b) If any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver or other modification that, pursuant to the terms of Section 11.1, requires the consent of a greater percentage of the Lenders than the Required Lenders and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent (any such Lender referred to above, a "Non-Consenting Lender"), then so long as no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent), at its sole expense (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 11.7(e), if applicable in accordance with the terms of such section), to replace any such Non-Consenting Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 11.7), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (or all of its interests, rights and obligations in respect of the Revolving Credit Loans, Daylight Overdraft Loans, Swing Line Loans, and Letters of Credit that are the subject of the related amendment, waiver or other modification) to one or more assignees; provided that, (i) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced, including obligations arising under Section 4.15 as a result of such replacement, and/or all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender in respect of any Revolving Credit Loans, Daylight Overdraft Loans, Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit that are the subject of the related amendment, modification or waiver and are to be so assigned shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, (ii) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the outstanding principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon (and the Borrower shall pay any compensation or additional amounts the Borrower is required to pay such Lender hereunder including obligations arising under Section 4.15 as a result of such replacement) and (iii) the replacement Lender shall grant its consent with respect to the applicable proposed amendment, waiver or other modification. In connection with any such assignment the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 11.7. Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender's interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 12.20(b).

SECTION 12.

The Borrower hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that it is indebted to ABN for obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement, as of the close of business on the Amended and Restated Effective Date, in the aggregate principal amount of $124,100,000 in respect of "Loans" (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) and the aggregate amount of $29,276,250 in respect of outstanding letter of credit and reimbursement obligations arising under the Existing Credit Agreement, together with all interest accrued and accruing thereon (to the extent applicable), and all fees, costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, all of which are unconditionally owing by the Borrower to the "Lender" (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement), without offset, defense or counterclaim of any kind, nature or description whatsoever.

12.2 Acknowledgment of Security Interests.

(a) The Borrower hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that the Collateral Agent has had and shall on and after the date hereof continue to have, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in and lien upon the Collateral heretofore granted to the Collateral Agent (or its predecessors in whatever capacity) pursuant to the Loan Documents to secure the Obligations.

(b) The Liens and security interests of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral shall be deemed to be continuously granted and perfected from the earliest date of the granting and perfection of such Liens and security interests to ABN, whether under the Existing Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

134

12.3 Loan Documents. The Borrower hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that as of the date hereof: (a) the Existing Credit Agreement and each of the other "Loan Documents" (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) were duly executed and delivered by the Borrower and each other Loan Party party thereto and are in full force and effect, (b) the agreements and obligations of the Borrower and each other Loan Party party thereto contained in the Existing Credit Agreement and the other "Loan Documents" (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower and each such other Loan Party enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, subject to the effects, if any, of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar Laws relating to or affecting creditors' rights generally, general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing and (c) the Lenders and the Agents are entitled to all of the rights and remedies provided for in the Existing Credit Agreement and the "Loan Documents" (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement).

12.4 Restatement.

(a) Except as otherwise stated in Section 12.2 and this Section 12.4, as of the date hereof, the terms, conditions, agreements, covenants, representations and warranties set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety, and as so amended and restated, replaced and superseded, by the terms, conditions, agreements, covenants, representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, except that nothing herein or in the other Loan Documents shall impair or adversely affect the continuation of the liability of the Borrower or any Guarantor for the Obligations or any Lien heretofore granted, pledged and/or assigned to any Agent or any Lender. The amendment and restatement contained herein shall not, in any manner, be construed to constitute payment of, or impair, limit, cancel or extinguish, or constitute a novation in respect of, the Indebtedness and other obligations and liabilities of the Borrower evidenced by or arising under the Existing Credit Agreement, and the Liens and security interests securing such Indebtedness and other obligations and liabilities, shall not in any manner be impaired, limited, terminated, waived or released.

(b) The principal amount of the loans and letters of credit outstanding as of the Amended and Restated Effective Date under the Existing Credit Agreement shall constitute Revolving Credit Loans and Letters of Credit hereunder.

12.5 Reallocation of Maximum Credit Limits.

(a) From and after the Amended and Restated Effective Date, the Maximum Credit Limit of each Lender shall be the amount set forth opposite such Lender's name on Schedule 1.0 hereto as the same may be reduced pursuant to the terms hereof.

(b) Each Lender, the Maximum Credit Limit of which is increased pursuant hereto (each, a "Purchasing Bank"), shall pay to the Administrative Agent on the Amended and Restated Effective Date, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the amount, if any, by which such Purchasing Bank's Stated Percentage (determined after giving effect to the adjustment of the Maximum Credit Limits pursuant to Schedule 1.0 hereto, including the increase of such Purchasing Bank's Maximum Credit Limit) of the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and funded participations in L/C Obligations, Daylight Overdraft Loans and Swing Line Loans to be outstanding immediately upon the Amended and Restated Effective Date exceeds the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans and funded participations in L/C Obligations, Daylight Overdraft Loans and Swing Line Loans owing to such Purchasing Bank immediately prior to the Amended and Restated Effective Date. Such amount paid by any such Purchasing Bank shall be deemed the purchase price for the acquisition by such Purchasing Bank of such additional amount of Revolving Credit Loans and funded participations in L/C Obligations, Daylight Overdraft Loans and Swing Line Loans from Selling Banks (as defined below) and, if applicable, other Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such amounts as received from the Purchasing Banks as may be necessary so that the Revolving Credit Loans and funded participations in L/C Obligations, Daylight Overdraft Loans and Swing Line Loans are held by the Purchasing Bank and other Lenders in accordance with their respective Stated Percentages (determined after giving effect to the adjustment of Maximum Credit Limits pursuant to Schedule 1.0 hereto).
