Upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 5.02 and 5.03, as applicable, from and including the Closing Date and prior to the Revolving Loan Termination Date, the Swing Line Bank may, in its discretion, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, make swing line loans to the Borrower from time to time, in Dollars, in an amount not to exceed the Swing Line Commitment (each, individually, a “Swing Line Loan” and collectively, the “Swing Line Loans”); provided, however, at no time shall the Revolving Credit Obligations exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment; and provided, further, that at no time shall the sum of (i) the outstanding amount of the Swing Line Bank’s Pro Rata Share of the Swing Line Loans, plus (ii) the outstanding amount of Revolving Loans made by the Swing Line Bank pursuant to Section 2.01, exceed the Swing Line Bank’s Revolving Loan Commitment at such time. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swing Line Loans at any time prior to the Revolving Loan Termination Date.

(b) Borrowing/Election Notice for Swing Line Loans. The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Bank a Borrowing/Election Notice, signed by it, not later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time) on the Borrowing Date of each Swing Line Loan, specifying (i) the applicable Borrowing Date (which date shall be a Business Day and which may be the same date as the date the Borrowing/Election Notice is given), and (ii) the aggregate amount of the requested Swing Line Loan which shall be an amount not less than $500,000 and increments of $100,000 in excess thereof. The Swing Line Loans shall at all times be Floating Rate Loans or shall bear interest at such other rate as shall be agreed to between the Borrower and the Swing Line Bank at the time of the making of such Swing Line Loans.

(c) Making of Swing Line Loans. Promptly after receipt of the Borrowing/Election Notice under Section 2.02(b) in respect of Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Bank may, in its sole discretion make available its Swing Line Loan, in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article 14. The Administrative Agent will promptly make the funds so received from the Swing Line Bank available to the Borrower on the Borrowing Date at the Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address.

(d) Repayment of Swing Line Loans. Each Swing Line Loan shall be paid in full by the Borrower on or before the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Borrowing Date for such Swing Line Loan. The Borrower may at any time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Swing Line Loans or, in a minimum amount of $500,000 and increments of $100,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding Swing Line Loans, upon notice to the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Bank. In addition, the Administrative Agent (i) may at any time in its sole discretion with respect to any outstanding Swing Line Loan, or (ii) shall, in the event the Borrower shall not have otherwise repaid such Loan, on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Borrowing Date of any Swing Line Loan, require each Revolving Lender (including the Swing Line Bank) to make a Revolving Loan in the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Loan, for the purpose of repaying such Swing Line Loan. The making of such Revolving Loans by the Revolving Lenders shall discharge the Borrower’s obligation under the first sentence of this Section 2.02(d) and such failure to pay shall not constitute a Default by the Borrower. Promptly following receipt of notice pursuant to this Section 2.02(d) from the Administrative Agent, each Revolving Lender shall make available its required Revolving Loan or Revolving Loans, in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article 14. Revolving Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.02(d) shall initially be Floating Rate Loans and thereafter may be continued as Floating Rate Loans or converted into Eurodollar Rate Loans in the manner provided in Section 2.09 and subject to the other conditions and limitations therein set forth and set forth in this Article 2. Unless a Revolving Lender shall have notified the Swing Line Bank, prior to its making any Swing Line Loan, that any applicable condition precedent set forth in Sections 5.02 and 5.03, as applicable, had not then been satisfied, such Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.02(d) to repay Swing Line Loans shall be unconditional, continuing, irrevocable and absolute and shall not be affected by any circumstances, including, without limitation, (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Bank or any other Person, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or Unmatured Default, (C) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower or (D) any other circumstances, happening or event whatsoever. In the event that any Revolving Lender fails to make payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.02(d), the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, retain and apply against such obligation the principal and interest otherwise payable to such Revolving Lender hereunder until the Administrative Agent receives such payment from such Revolving Lender or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied. In addition to the foregoing, if for any reason any Revolving Lender fails to make payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount due under this Section 2.02(d), such Revolving Lender shall be deemed, at the option of the Administrative Agent, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swing Line Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the

applicable Swing Line Loan in the amount of such Revolving Loan, and such interest and participation may be recovered from such Revolving Lender together with interest thereon at the NYFRB Rate for each day during the period commencing on the date of demand and ending on the date such amount is received. On the Revolving Loan Termination Date, the Borrower shall repay in full the outstanding principal balance of the Swing Line Loans.

Section 2.03 Rate Options for all Advances; Maximum Interest Periods. The Swing Line Loans shall be Floating Rate Loans at all times or shall bear interest at such other rate as may be agreed to between the Borrower and the Swing Line Bank at the time of the making of any such Swing Line Loan. The Revolving Loans and Term Loans may be Floating Rate Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans, or a combination thereof, selected by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.09. The Borrower may select, in accordance with Section 2.09, rate options and Interest Periods applicable to the Revolving Loans and Term Loans; provided that there shall be no more than eight (8) Interest Periods in effect with respect to all of the Loans at any time.

Section 2.04 Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Optional Prepayments.

(i) Subject to clause (b) below, the Borrower may from time to time and at any time upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice repay or prepay, without penalty or premium all or any part of outstanding Floating Rate Loans comprising the same Advance in an aggregate minimum amount of $10,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Advances of Eurodollar Rate Loans may be voluntarily repaid or prepaid on or prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period, subject to the indemnification provisions contained in Section 4.04, provided that the Borrower may not so prepay Eurodollar Rate Loans unless it shall have provided at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of such prepayment and provided, further that optional prepayments of Advances of Eurodollar Rate Loans made pursuant to Section 2.04(a)(i) shall be for the entire amount of the outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans of such Advance. Prior to any repayment of any Advances of any Class under this Section, the Borrower shall select the Advances or Advances of the applicable Class to be repaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery or facsimile) of such selection. Each repayment of an Advance shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Advance. Repayments of Advances shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amounts repaid.

(ii) In the event any Term B Loans are subject to a Repricing Event prior to the six month anniversary of the Closing Date, a Term B Lender whose Term B Loans are prepaid or repaid in whole or in part, or which is required to assign any of its Term B Loans pursuant to Section 2.19, in connection with such Repricing Event or which holds a Term B Loan the All-in Yield of which is reduced as a result of a Repricing Event shall be paid an amount equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of such Lender’s Term B Loans so prepaid, repaid, assigned or repriced.

(b) Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of any Prepayment Event (other than the Divestiture Process, which is addressed in subclause (iii) below) following the Closing Date, the Borrower shall, no later than one Business Day following the day such Net Proceeds are received (or, in the case of a Prepayment Event described in clauses (a) or (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event,” within three Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received), prepay Term Loans in an amount equal to (x) in the case of an event described in clauses (a) or (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event” an amount equal to the Asset Sale/Casualty Event Percentage multiplied by Net Proceeds received by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such event or (y) otherwise, 100.0% of such Net Proceeds; provided that, in the case of any event described in clauses (a) or (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event,” if the Borrower shall, prior to the date of the required prepayment, deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower to the effect that the Borrower intends to cause the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate) to be applied within 365 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds to acquire real property, equipment or other tangible assets to be used in the business of the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiaries, or to consummate any Permitted Acquisition (or any other acquisition of all or substantially all the assets of (or all or substantially all the assets constituting a business unit, division, product line or line of business of) any Person) permitted hereunder, and certifying that no Unmatured Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Proceeds from such event (or the portion of such Net Proceeds specified in such certificate, if applicable) except to the extent of any such Net Proceeds that have not been so applied by the end of such 365-day period (or within a period of 180 days thereafter if by the end of such initial 365-day period the Borrower or one or more Restricted Subsidiaries shall have entered into an agreement with a third party to acquire such real property, equipment or other tangible assets, or to consummate such Permitted Acquisition or other acquisition, with such Net Proceeds), at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to the Net Proceeds that have not been so applied (and no prepayment shall be required to the extent the aggregate amount of such Net Proceeds that are not reinvested in accordance with this Section does not exceed $10,000,000 in any fiscal year); provided, further that to the extent any such Net Proceeds shall be received in respect of assets owned by a Loan Party, such Net Proceeds may be reinvested only in assets owned by a Loan Party or, in the case of a Permitted Acquisition or other acquisition, by any Person that shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor upon the consummation thereof (other than, in each case, Equity Interests in Foreign Subsidiaries, except to the extent such Net Proceeds shall have resulted from the sale of Equity Interests in one or more Foreign Subsidiaries).

(ii) In the event that the Borrower has Excess Cash Flow for any fiscal year of the Borrower, commencing with the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019, the Borrower shall, not later than ninety (90) days following the end of such fiscal year, prepay Term Loans on a pro rata basis between the Classes of Term Loans in an amount equal to the excess of (x) an amount equal to the ECF Percentage multiplied by Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year over (y) the amount of prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(a)(i) during such fiscal year (other than any such prepayment made with the proceeds of Indebtedness).

(iii) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in respect of the Divestiture Process, the Borrower shall, no later than one Business Day following the day such Net Proceeds are received, prepay Term Loans in an amount equal to 100.0% of such Net Proceeds.

(iv) Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of Term Loan Advances under this Section, the Borrower shall, subject to the next sentence, specify the Term Loan Advance or Term Loan Advances to be prepaid in the notice of such prepayment. In the event of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loan Advances from a Prepayment Event under clauses (a) or (b) of the definition thereof made at a time when Term Loan Advances of more than one Class remain outstanding, the Borrower shall select Term Loan Advances to be prepaid so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated among the Term Loan Advances pro rata based on the aggregate principal amounts of outstanding Term Loans of each such Class; provided that to the extent provided in the relevant Incremental Term Loan Amendment or Extension Agreement, any Class of Incremental Term Loans or Extended Term Loans may be paid on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis with any other Class of Term Loans. Any prepayment of Loans from a Prepayment Event described in clause (c) of the definition of “Prepayment Event” shall be applied to the Class or Classes of Loans selected by the Borrower.

(v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Term Lender may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery or facsimile) at least one Business Day (or such shorter period as may be established by the Administrative Agent) prior to the required prepayment date, to decline all or any portion of any prepayment of its Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04 (other than an optional prepayment pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section or a prepayment pursuant to clause (c) of the definition of “Prepayment Event,” which may not be declined), in which case the aggregate amount of the payment that would have been applied to prepay Loans but was so declined may be retained by the Borrower and shall constitute “Declined Proceeds.”

(vi) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery or facsimile) of any optional prepayment and, to the extent practicable, any mandatory prepayment hereunder (A) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment or (B) in the case of prepayment of a Floating Rate Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Advance or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that a notice of prepayment of Advances pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the applicable Class of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Advance shall be in an amount that

would be permitted in the case of an advance of an Advance of the same Type as provided in Section 2.04(a), except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of an Advance shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Advance. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest as required by Section 2.11. In no event (except pursuant to Section 2.05 below) shall a repayment or a prepayment of a Revolving Loan result in a reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment.

(vii) Foreign Prepayment Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.04(b), mandatory prepayments (other than mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(iii)) arising from the receipt of Net Cash Proceeds from any Prepayment Event by or the Excess Cash Flow attributable to any Foreign Subsidiary (each, a “Foreign Mandatory Prepayment Event”) shall not be required (A) to the extent the making of any such Foreign Mandatory Prepayment Event (or the repatriation of funds to effect such payment) would give rise to a material adverse Tax consequence (as determined in good faith by the Borrower) or (B) so long as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation thereof to the United States (the Borrower hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly file any required forms, obtain any necessary consents and take all similar actions reasonably required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation); provided that if such repatriation of any such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is later permitted under applicable law, such repatriation will, subject to clause (A) above, be effected as promptly as practicable and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, as applicable, will be promptly after such repatriation applied to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(b) to the extent provided herein.

(c) Term Loans Repayment. If (i) the Closing Date has not occurred on or prior to the first to occur of (x) the Borrower’s written notice to the Arrangers of, or its public announcement of, the abandonment of the Acquisition, (y) the termination of the Acquisition Agreement in accordance with its terms, and (z) 5:00 p.m. New York City time on January 15, 2019 (the “Outside Date”); provided, however, that the Outside Date shall be extended (A) to April 15, 2019 if all conditions to Closing (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement as in effect on January 15, 2018) set forth in Article IX of the Acquisition Agreement as in effect on January 15, 2018 shall have been satisfied (or, with respect to conditions to be satisfied at such Closing, are then capable of being satisfied) as of January 15, 2019, other than the conditions set forth in Sections 9.01(c), 9.01(d), 9.02(c) and 9.02(d) of the Acquisition Agreement as in effect on January 15, 2018 (the “Regulatory Conditions”) and (B) to July 15, 2019 if after an extension pursuant to clause (A), all conditions to Closing (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement as in effect on January 15, 2018) set forth in Article IX of the Acquisition Agreement as in effect on January 15, 2018 shall have been satisfied (or, with respect to conditions to be satisfied at such Closing, are then capable of being satisfied) as of April 15, 2019, other than the Regulatory Conditions (such earliest date, the “Termination Date”), or (ii) the Escrow End Date (as defined in the Escrow Agreement) otherwise occurs, then the Initial Borrower shall immediately repay the Term Loans and any accrued interest and fees thereon. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent the Term Loans are funded net of any original issue discount or upfront fees that would have been payable in accordance with the Fee Letter on the Closing Date, the repayment of the Term Loans plus any accrued and unpaid interest and fees with respect to the Term Loans shall be accompanied by the amount of such original issue discount or upfront fees.

Section 2.05 Reduction of Revolving Loan Commitments; Expansion Option.

(a) Reduction of Revolving Loan Commitments.

(i) The Borrower may permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment in whole, or in part ratably among the Lenders, in an aggregate minimum amount of $25,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess of that amount (unless the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment is reduced in whole), upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of any such reduction; provided, however, that the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment may not be reduced below the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations. All accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable on the effective date of any termination of the obligations of the Revolving Lenders to make Revolving Loans hereunder and all accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable upon any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment on the amount so reduced.

(ii) If the Closing Date has not occurred on or prior to the Termination Date, all undrawn Commitments shall immediately terminate.

(b) Expansion Option.

(i) The Borrower may from time to time after the Closing Date elect to increase the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment (each, a “Revolving Loan Increase”) or increase the aggregate principal amount of any Class of Term Loans or enter into one or more tranches of term loans (each an “Incremental Term Loan”), in each case in minimum amounts of $50,000,000 and increments of $10,000,000 so long as, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loan Increases and such Incremental Term Loans (other than Incremental Term Loans in respect of Refinancing Term Loans) does not exceed (A) (i) an aggregate amount equal to the greater of (x) $600,000,000 and (y) 100.0% of Consolidated EBITDA for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower most recently ended on or prior to such date for which Financial Statements have been delivered plus (ii) the aggregate principal amount of any prepayments of Term Loans (in the case of Term Loans consisting of Incremental Term Loans (or any refinancing thereof) solely to the extent incurred in reliance on this clause (A)) made pursuant to Section 2.04(a) following the Closing Date to the extent not funded with the proceeds of Indebtedness for borrowed money plus (B) an additional amount, so long as, after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional amount (and assuming for such purposes that the entire amount of any such Revolving Loan Increase is fully funded), the pro forma First Lien Net Leverage Ratio does not exceed 2.75 to 1.00 (or, if such Indebtedness is incurred in connection with a Permitted Acquisition, the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio in effect immediately prior thereto); provided that, for purposes of this clause (B), net cash proceeds of Incremental Term Loans incurred at such time shall not be netted against the applicable amount of Consolidated First Lien Indebtedness for purposes of such calculation of the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio at such time; provided, further, that the aggregate principal amount of the sum of all (x) Revolving Loan Increases, taken as a whole, plus (y) Incremental Term Loans incurred in the form of “term A loans” (which shall mean a term loan facility with amortization (without giving effect to any increase made solely to make

such Incremental Term Loans fungible with any Term Loans) greater than 1.0% per year prior to maturity or that mature prior to the Term Loan B Maturity Date), taken as a whole, shall not exceed $300,000,000. The Borrower may arrange for any such Revolving Loan Increase or Incremental Term Loan to be provided by one or more existing Lenders (each existing Lender so agreeing to an increase in its Revolving Loan Commitment, or to participate in such Incremental Term Loans, an “Increasing Lender”), or by one or more new banks, financial institutions or other entities (each such new bank, financial institution or other entity, an “Augmenting Lender”), to increase their existing Revolving Loan Commitments or to participate in such Incremental Term Loans (it being agreed that any Lender approached to provide any such Revolving Loan Increase or Incremental Term Loans may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Revolving Loan Increase or Incremental Term Loans); provided that (i) each Augmenting Lender, shall be subject to the approval of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and, in the case of a Revolving Loan Increase, the Issuing Banks (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and (ii) with respect to any Revolving Loan Increase, (x) in the case of an Increasing Lender, the Borrower and such Increasing Lender execute an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 hereto (each, an “Increasing Lender Supplement”), and (y) in the case of an Augmenting Lender, the Borrower and such Augmenting Lender execute an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 hereto (each, an “Augmenting Lender Supplement”). No consent of any Lender (other than the Lenders participating in the Revolving Loan Increase or Incremental Term Loan) shall be required for any Revolving Loan Increase or Incremental Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(i), as applicable. Revolving Loan Increases and Incremental Term Loans created pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(i), shall become effective on the date agreed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the relevant Increasing Lenders or Augmenting Lenders, and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender thereof. Incremental Term Loans may be made hereunder pursuant to an amendment or an amendment and restatement (an “Incremental Term Loan Amendment”) of this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Increasing Lender participating in such tranche, each Augmenting Lender participating in such tranche, if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Term Loan Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.05(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment (or in the Revolving Loan Commitment of any Lender) or Incremental Term Loans shall become effective under this paragraph unless:

(1) on the proposed date of the effectiveness of such increase or Incremental Term Loans, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of Section 5.03 shall be satisfied or waived by the Required Lenders; provided that if the proceeds of such Incremental Term Loans are being used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, (i) the condition set forth in such paragraph (a) shall be satisfied or waived by the Required Lenders as of the date the definitive acquisition agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into and (ii) the condition set forth in such paragraph (b) shall be limited to the accuracy of the Specified Representations, and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower; and

(2) the Administrative Agent shall have received documents consistent with those delivered pursuant to Sections 5.02 and 5.03 as to the corporate power and authority of the Borrower to borrow hereunder after giving effect to such increase (including, without limitation, opinions of counsel for the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent).

(ii) On the effective date of any Revolving Loan Increase, (A) each relevant Increasing Lender and Augmenting Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent shall determine, for the benefit of the other Lenders, as being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such increase and the use of such amounts to make payments to such other Lenders, each Revolving Lender’s portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans of all the Revolving Lenders to equal such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Revolving Credit Availability at such time and (B) the Borrower shall be deemed to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding Revolving Loans as of the date of any increase in the Revolving Loan Commitments (with such reborrowing to consist of the Types of Revolving Loans, with related Interest Periods if applicable, specified in a Borrowing/Election Notice delivered by the Borrower in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.07). The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (B) of the immediately preceding sentence shall be accompanied by payment of all accrued interest on the amount prepaid and, in respect of each Eurodollar Rate Loan, shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrower pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.04 if the deemed payment occurs other than on the last day of the related Interest Periods.

(iii) The terms and conditions of any Revolving Loan Increase and the Incremental Term Loans shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the applicable Revolving Loan Increase or Incremental Term Loan Amendment, identical to those of the Revolving Loan Commitment, Term A Loans and Term B Loans, as applicable; provided that (A) (x) if the All-in Yield for any Incremental Term Loans (other than Incremental Term Loans in respect of Refinancing Term Loans) that is a “term A facility” (which shall mean a term loan facility with amortization (without giving effect to any increase made solely to make such Incremental Term Loans fungible with any Term Loans) greater than 1.0% per year prior to maturity or that mature prior to the Term Loan B Maturity Date) exceeds the All-in Yield for the Term A Loans by more than 50 basis points (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Term A Yield Differential”), then the Applicable Margin for the Term A Loans shall automatically be increased by the Term A Yield Differential (plus, if elected by the Borrower in its sole discretion, an additional amount in order to make the Term A Loans fungible with such Incremental Term Loans), effective upon the making of such Incremental Term Loans and (y) if the All-in Yield for any Incremental Term Loans (other than Incremental Term Loans in respect of Refinancing Term Loans) that is a “term B facility” (which shall mean a term loan facility with amortization (without giving effect to any increase made solely to make such Incremental Term Loans fungible with any Term Loans) less than or equal to 1.0% per year prior to maturity) exceeds the All-in Yield for the Term B Loans by more than 50 basis points (the

amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Term B Yield Differential”), then the Applicable Margin for the Term B Loans shall automatically be increased by the Term B Yield Differential (plus, if elected by the Borrower in its sole discretion, an additional amount in order to make the Term B Loans fungible with such Incremental Term Loans), effective upon the making of such Incremental Term Loans; provided that this clause (A) shall not be applicable to any Incremental Term Loan that (x) is incurred after the date that is twelve months following the Closing Date or (y) incurred in connection with a Change of Control or transformative acquisition not otherwise permitted under the this Agreement (this clause (A) being referred to herein as the “MFN Provision”), (B) no Incremental Term Maturity Date shall be earlier than the Term Loan B Maturity Date (unless such Incremental Term Loans are a “term A facility” as described above, in which event, the applicable Incremental Term Maturity Date shall not be earlier than the Term Loan A Maturity Date), (C) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Incremental Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term B Loans (unless such Incremental Term Loans are a “term A facility” as described above, in which event, the applicable Weighted Average Life to Maturity shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term A Loans), (D) the Incremental Term Loans will rank pari passu in right of payment and with respect to security with the Term Loans and none of the obligors or guarantors with respect thereto shall be a Person that is not a Loan Party, (E) the Incremental Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis (or on a basis that is less than pro rata) in any mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans, but may not provide for mandatory prepayment requirements that are more favorable than those applicable to Term Loans, and (F) to the extent the terms of the Incremental Term Loans are inconsistent with the terms of the Term Loans (except as set forth in clauses (A), (B) and (C) above), (i) such terms shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) to the extent such terms are more favorable to the Incremental Lenders than the terms hereof to the Term Lenders, the Borrower may elect to conform to such terms for the benefit of all of the Term Lenders pursuant to an amendment hereto subject solely to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, all terms of any Revolving Loan Increase (including the Applicable Margin thereon) shall be identical to the terms of the Revolving Facility.

Section 2.06 Method of Borrowing. Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on each Borrowing Date, each applicable Lender shall make available its Pro Rata Share of each such Advance, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article 14. The Administrative Agent will promptly make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address.

Section 2.07 Method of Selecting Types and Interest Periods for Advances. The Borrower shall select the Type and Class of Advance and, in the case of each Advance of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Interest Period applicable to each Advance from time to time. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (a “Borrowing/Election Notice”) not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) (a) on or before the Borrowing Date of each Advance of Floating Rate Loans and (b) three (3) Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Advance of Eurodollar Rate Loans specifying: (i) the Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day) of such Advance; (ii) the aggregate amount of such Advance; (iii) the Type and Class of Advance selected; and (iv) in the case of each Advance of Eurodollar Rate Loans,

the Interest Period applicable thereto; provided, however, that with respect to the borrowing on the Escrow Date, such notice shall be delivered in accordance with the terms of Section 2.01(d) and shall be accompanied by the documentation specified in such Section, if applicable. The Borrower shall select Interest Periods so that, to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, it will not be necessary to prepay all or any portion of any Advance of Eurodollar Rate Loans prior to the last day of the applicable Interest Period in order to make mandatory prepayments as required pursuant to the terms hereof. Each Advance of Floating Rate Loans and all Obligations other than Loans shall bear interest from and including the date of the making of such Advance, in the case of Advances of Floating Rate Loans, and the date such Obligation is due and owing in the case of such other Obligations, to (but not including) the date of repayment thereof at the Alternate Base Rate, changing when and as such Alternate Base Rate changes. Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of the Loans maintained as Floating Rate Loans will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate. Each Advance of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall bear interest from and including the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined as applicable to such Advance, changing when and as the Applicable Margin changes. Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of the Loans maintained as Eurodollar Rate Loans will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Applicable Margin.

Section 2.08 Minimum Amount of Each Advance. Each Advance (other than an Advance to repay Swing Line Loans or a Reimbursement Obligation) shall be in the minimum amount of $10,000,000 (and in multiples of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof); provided, however, that any Advance of Floating Rate Loans may be in the amount of the unused Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment.

Section 2.09 Method of Selecting Types and Interest Periods for Conversion and Continuation of Advances.

(a) Right to Convert. The Borrower may elect from time to time, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03, this Section 2.09 and Section 5.03 to convert all or any part of a Loan of any Type into any other Type or Types of Loans; provided that any conversion of any Advance of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made on, and only on, the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

(b) Automatic Conversion and Continuation. Floating Rate Loans shall continue as Floating Rate Loans unless and until such Floating Rate Loans are repaid or converted into Eurodollar Rate Loans. Eurodollar Rate Loans shall continue as Eurodollar Rate Loans until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be automatically converted into Floating Rate Loans unless the Borrower shall have repaid such Loans or given the Administrative Agent a Borrowing/Election Notice in accordance with Section 2.09(d) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurodollar Rate Loans continue as a Eurodollar Rate Loan.

(c) No Conversion Post-Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.09(a) or Section 2.09(b), no Loan may be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Rate Loan (except with the consent of the Required Lenders) when any Default has occurred and is continuing.

(d) Borrowing/Election Notice. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent an irrevocable Borrowing/Election Notice of each conversion of a Floating Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Rate Loan or continuation of a Eurodollar Rate Loan not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) three (3) Business Days prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation, specifying: (i) the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) of such conversion or continuation; (ii) the amount and Type of the Loan to be converted or continued; and (iii) the amount of Eurodollar Rate Loan(s) into which such Loan is to be converted or continued, and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.10 Default Rate. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default under (a) Section 8.01(a), if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace period), whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.0% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in Section 2.03 and (ii) in the case of any other overdue amount, 2.0% per annum plus the rate applicable to Advances of Floating Rate Loans and (b) Section 8.01(e) or 8.01(f), the interest rate described in clause (a) above shall be applicable to the Loans without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Lender.

Section 2.11 Method of Payment. All payments of principal, interest, fees, commissions and L/C Obligations hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article 14, or at any other Lending Installation of the Administrative Agent specified in writing by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, by 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date when due and shall be made ratably among the Lenders (unless such amount is not to be shared ratably in accordance with the terms hereof). Each payment delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds which the Administrative Agent received at its address specified pursuant to Article 14 or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Administrative Agent from such Lender. The Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent to charge the account of the Borrower maintained with JPMorgan for each payment of principal, interest, fees, commissions and L/C Obligations as it becomes due hereunder. Each reference to the Administrative Agent in this Section 2.11 shall also be deemed to refer, and shall apply equally, to each Issuing Bank, in the case of payments required to be made by the Borrower to such Issuing Bank pursuant to Article 3.

Section 2.12 Evidence of Debt; Noteless Agreement.

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

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record

(i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period, if any, with respect thereto,

(ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder,

(iii) the original stated amount of each Letter of Credit and the amount of the L/C Obligations outstanding at any time and

(iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to clauses(a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded unless the Borrower objects to information contained therein within thirty (30) days of the Borrower’s receipt of such information; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note for such Loans payable to the order of such Lender and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion and consistent with the terms of this Agreement. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (prior to any assignment pursuant to Section 13.03) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form, payable to the order of the payee named therein, except to the extent that any such Lender subsequently returns any such note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in clauses (a) and (b) above.

Section 2.13 Telephonic Notices The Borrower authorizes the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any person or persons the Administrative Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent a written confirmation, signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower, if such confirmation is requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to such telephonic notice shall govern absent manifest error. In case of disagreement concerning such notices, if the Administrative Agent has recorded telephonic Borrowing/Election Notices, such recordings will be made available to the Borrower upon the Borrower’s request therefor.

Section 2.14 Promise to Pay; Interest and Commitment Fees; Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis; Loan and Control Accounts.

(a) Promise to Pay. The Borrower unconditionally promises to pay when due the principal amount of each Loan and all other Obligations incurred by it, and to pay all unpaid interest accrued thereon, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Interest Payment Dates. Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Loan shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Escrow Date and on any date on which such Floating Rate Loan is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Eurodollar Rate Loan is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Eurodollar Rate Loan having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period. Interest accrued on the principal balance of all other Obligations shall be payable in arrears

(i) on each Payment Date, commencing on the first such day following the incurrence of such Obligation,

(ii) upon repayment thereof in full or in part, and

(iii) if not theretofore paid in full, at the time such other Obligation becomes due and payable (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, from and after the Closing Date until the Revolving Loan Termination Date, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) accruing at the per annum rate of the then Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage, on the daily average unused Revolving Loan Commitments (with the aggregate amount of any outstanding Swing Line Loans being deemed to be unused Revolving Loan Commitments for this purpose for all Revolving Lenders other than the Swing Line Bank). All such Commitment Fees payable under this clause (c)(i) shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Payment Date occurring after the Closing Date (with the first such payment being calculated for the period from the Closing Date and ending on the last Business Day of the first fiscal quarter of the Borrower ending after the Closing Date), and on the Revolving Loan Termination Date.

(ii) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the sole account of the Administrative Agent, the fees payable at the times and in the amounts separately agreed.

(d) Interest and Fee Basis; Applicable Margin, Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage and Applicable L/C Fee Percentage. Fees payable with respect to Letters of Credit and Commitment Fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) on the basis of a year of 360 days. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Interest shall be payable for the day an Obligation is incurred but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest on a Loan or any payment of any other Obligations shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest, fees and commissions in connection with such payment.

Section 2.15 Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment Reductions. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent will notify each applicable Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment reduction notice, Increasing Lender Supplement, Augmenting Lender Supplement, Borrowing/Election Notice, repayment notice and issuance of Letter of Credit notice received by it hereunder. The Administrative Agent will notify each applicable Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Eurodollar Rate Loan promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give each applicable Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base Rate.

Section 2.16 Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Loans or Letters of Credit at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender and may change its Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.06, each Lender may, by written or facsimile notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, designate a Lending Installation through which Loans will be made by it and for whose account Loan payments and/or payments of L/C Obligations are to be made.

Section 2.17 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent. Unless the Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (a) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (b) in the case of the Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of payment by a Lender, the NYFRB Rate for such day or (ii) in the case of payment by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

Section 2.18 Maturity Date. This Agreement shall be effective until the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, until all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been fully and indefeasibly paid and satisfied in cash (to the full extent that such Obligations are payable in cash), all financing arrangements among the Borrower and the Lenders under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall have been terminated and all of the Letters of Credit shall have expired, been canceled or terminated, all of the rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall survive.

Section 2.19 Replacement of Certain Lenders. In the event a Lender (an “Affected Lender”) shall have: (i) become a Defaulting Lender, (ii) requested compensation from the Borrower under Sections 4.01, 4.02 or 4.05 to recover Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes or other additional costs incurred by such Lender which are not being incurred generally by the other Lenders, (iii) delivered a notice pursuant to Section 4.03 claiming that such Lender is unable to extend Eurodollar Rate Loans to the Borrower for reasons not generally applicable to the other Lenders or (iv) has invoked Section

10.02, then, in any such case, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent may make written demand on such Affected Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent in the case of a demand by the Borrower and a copy to the Borrower in the case of a demand by the Administrative Agent) for the Affected Lender to assign, and such Affected Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to assign five (5) Business Days after the date of such demand, to one or more financial institutions that comply with the provisions of Section 13.03 which the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall have engaged for such purpose (“Replacement Lender”), all of such Affected Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, its Revolving Loan Commitment, Term Loan A Commitment and/or Term Loan B Commitment, all Loans owing to it, all of its participation interests in existing Letters of Credit, and its obligation to participate in additional Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans hereunder) in accordance with Section 13.03. The Administrative Agent is authorized to execute any Assignment and Assumption as attorney-in-fact for any Affected Lender failing to execute and deliver the same within five (5) Business Days after the date of such demand. Further, with respect to such assignment the Affected Lender shall have concurrently received, in cash, all amounts due and owing to the Affected Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans owed to such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon through the date of such assignment, amounts payable under Sections 2.04(a)(ii), 4.01, 4.02 and 4.05 with respect to such Affected Lender and compensation payable under Section 2.14(c) in the event of any replacement of any Affected Lender under clause (ii) or clause (iii) of this Section 2.19; provided that upon such Affected Lender’s replacement, such Affected Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.04, 4.05 and 10.07, as well as to any fees accrued for its account hereunder and not yet paid, and shall continue to be obligated under Article 11 with respect to losses, obligations, liabilities, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements for matters which occurred prior to the date the Affected Lender is replaced. Upon the replacement of any Affected Lender pursuant to this Section 2.19, the provisions of Section 9.02 shall continue to apply with respect to Loans which are then outstanding with respect to which the Affected Lender has become a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.20 Extension Offers.

(a) The Borrower may on one or more occasions, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, make one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) to all of the Term A Lenders, all of the Term B Lenders or all of the Revolving Lenders of one or more Classes on a pro rata basis (each Class subject to such an Extension Offer, an “Extension Request Class”) to make one or more Extension Permitted Amendments pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Extension Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Extension Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than five (5) Business Days after the date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent). Extension Permitted Amendments shall become effective only (i) with respect to the Term A Loans of the Term A Lenders of the Extension Request Class that accept the applicable Extension Offer or the Term B Loans of the Term B Lenders of the Extension Request Class that accept the applicable Extension Offer, as applicable (such Term Lenders, the “Extending Term Lenders”) and, in the case of any Extending Term Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Term A Loans or Term B Loans, as applicable, of such Extension Request Class as to

which such Term A Lender’s or Term B Lender’s, as applicable, acceptance has been made and (ii) with respect to the Revolving Loans of the Revolving Lenders of the Extension Request Class that accept the applicable Extension Offer (such Revolving Lenders, the “Extending Revolving Lenders”) and, in the case of any Extending Revolving Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Revolving Loans of such Extension Request Class as to which such Revolving Lender’s acceptance has been made.

(b) An Extension Permitted Amendment shall be effected pursuant to an Extension Agreement executed and delivered by the Borrower, each applicable Extending Term Lender or Extending Revolving Lender, and the Administrative Agent; provided that no Extension Permitted Amendment shall become effective unless the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent such legal opinions, board resolutions, secretary’s certificates, officer’s certificates, reaffirmation agreements and other documents as shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Term Lender and Revolving Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Agreement.

(xi) the aggregate principal amount of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Refinanced Debt being refinanced thereby, plus any interest, premiums, fees and expenses, or to the extent otherwise permitted under this Agreement; and

(b) Any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may be provided by any Lender or any Augmenting Lender. Each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.22 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) not less than $10,000,000 (or in integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof) in the case of Refinancing Term Loans and Refinancing Term Loan Commitments and (ii) not less than $5,000,000 (or in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof), in each case, or such other amount of the total outstanding amount of the Refinanced Debt.

Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section. In addition, if so provided in the relevant Refinancing Amendment and with the consent of each Issuing Bank, participations in letters of credit issued under any Refinanced Debt shall be reallocated to the Lenders under the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness refinancing such Refinanced Debt accordance with the terms of such Refinancing Amendment.

(a) issue any Letter of Credit if on the date of issuance, before or after giving effect to the Letter of Credit requested hereunder, (i) the Revolving Credit Obligations at such time would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment at such time, (ii) the aggregate outstanding amount of the L/C Obligations would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit or (iii) the aggregate outstanding amount of the L/C Obligations under Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank would exceed such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Fronting Sublimit (as set forth on Schedule 2.01); or

Section 3.04 Conditions. In addition to being subject to the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Sections 5.02 and 5.03, the obligation of any Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit is subject to the satisfaction in full of the following conditions:

(a) the Borrower shall have delivered to such Issuing Bank (with copies delivered simultaneously to the Administrative Agent) at such times and in such manner as such Issuing Bank may reasonably prescribe, a request for issuance of such Letter of Credit in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, duly executed applications for such Letter of Credit, and such other documents, instructions and agreements as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof (all such applications, documents, instructions, and agreements being referred to herein as the “L/C Documents”), and the proposed Letter of Credit shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank as to form and content; and

(b) as of the date of issuance no order, judgment or decree of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit and no law, rule or regulation applicable to such Issuing Bank and no request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from a Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from the issuance of Letters of Credit generally or the issuance of that Letter of Credit.

Section 3.05 Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Article 3 and provided that the applicable conditions set forth in Sections 5.02 and 5.03 hereof have been satisfied, the applicable Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit on behalf of the Borrower in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices and, in this connection, such Issuing Bank may assume that the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.03 hereof have been satisfied unless it shall have received notice to the contrary from the Administrative Agent or a Lender or has knowledge that the applicable conditions have not been met.

(b) Immediately upon such issuance, the applicable Issuing Bank shall give the Administrative Agent written or telex notice, or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, of the issuance of a Letter of Credit, provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not result in any liability on the part of such Issuing Bank.

(c) The applicable Issuing Bank shall not extend (including as a result of any evergreen provision) or amend any Letter of Credit unless the requirements of this Section 3.05 are met as though a new Letter of Credit was being requested and issued.

Section 3.06 Letter of Credit Participation. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit hereunder, each Revolving Lender with a Pro Rata Share shall be deemed to have automatically, irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from each Issuing Bank an undivided interest and participation in and to each Letter of Credit, the obligations of the Borrower in respect thereof, and the liability of the applicable Issuing Bank thereunder (collectively, an “L/C Interest”) in an amount equal to the amount available for drawing under such Letter of Credit multiplied by such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share. If the Borrower fails at any time to repay a Reimbursement Obligation pursuant to Section 3.07, promptly following receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank, each Revolving Lender shall make payment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, in immediately available funds in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of any unreimbursed payment of an L/C Draft or other draw under a Letter of Credit. The obligation of each Revolving Lender to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank under this Section 3.06 shall be unconditional, continuing, irrevocable and absolute. In the event that any Revolving Lender fails to

make payment to the Administrative Agent of any amount due under this Section 3.06, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to receive, retain and apply against such obligation the principal and interest otherwise payable to such Revolving Lender hereunder until the Administrative Agent receives such payment from such Revolving Lender or such obligation is otherwise fully satisfied; provided, however, that nothing contained in this sentence shall relieve such Revolving Lender of its obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for such amount in accordance with this Section 3.06.

Section 3.07 Reimbursement Obligation. The Borrower agrees unconditionally, irrevocably and absolutely to pay immediately to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Revolving Lenders, the amount of each advance drawn under or pursuant to a Letter of Credit or an L/C Draft related thereto (such obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Administrative Agent for an advance made under a Letter of Credit or L/C Draft being hereinafter referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation” with respect to such Letter of Credit or L/C Draft), each such reimbursement to be made by the Borrower no later than the Business Day on which the applicable Issuing Bank makes payment of each such L/C Draft or, in the case of any other draw on a Letter of Credit, the date specified in the demand of the applicable Issuing Bank. If the Borrower at any time fails to repay a Reimbursement Obligation pursuant to this Section 3.07, such failure shall not constitute a Default if the Revolving Credit Obligations do not, and after making Revolving Loans in repayment of such Reimbursement Obligation would not, exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments and the conditions set forth in Sections 5.03(a) and 5.03(b) have been satisfied, and the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to borrow Revolving Loans from the Revolving Lenders, as of the date of the advance giving rise to the Reimbursement Obligation, equal in amount to the amount of the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation. Such Revolving Loans shall be made as of the date of the payment giving rise to such Reimbursement Obligation, automatically, without notice and without any requirement to satisfy the conditions precedent otherwise applicable to an Advance of Revolving Loans. Such Revolving Loans shall constitute an Advance of Floating Rate Loans, the proceeds of which Advance shall be used to repay such Reimbursement Obligation. If, for any reason, the Borrower fails to repay a Reimbursement Obligation on the day such Reimbursement Obligation arises and, for any reason, the Revolving Lenders are unable to make or have no obligation to make Revolving Loans, then such Reimbursement Obligation shall bear interest from and after such day, until paid in full, at the interest rate applicable to a Floating Rate Loan.

Section 3.08 Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay:

(a) quarterly, in arrears commencing on the last day of the first fiscal quarter ended after the Closing Date, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders, except as set forth in Section 9.02(a), a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable L/C Fee Percentage on the average daily outstanding face amount available for drawing under all standby Letters of Credit;

(b) quarterly, in arrears, to the applicable Issuing Bank, a letter of credit fronting fee which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum on the average daily outstanding face amount available for drawing under all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank; and

(c) to the applicable Issuing Bank, all customary fees and other issuance, amendment, cancellation, document examination, negotiation, transfer and presentment expenses and related charges in connection with the issuance, amendment, cancellation, presentation of L/C Drafts, negotiation, transfer and the like customarily charged by such Issuing Bank with respect to standby Letters of Credit, payable at the time of invoice of such amounts.

Section 3.09 Issuing Bank Reporting Requirements. Upon the request of any Revolving Lender, each Issuing Bank shall furnish to such Revolving Lender copies of any Letter of Credit and any application for or reimbursement agreement with respect to a Letter of Credit to which such Issuing Bank is party.

Section 3.10 Indemnification; Exoneration.

(a) In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Article 3, the Borrower hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save harmless the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Revolving Lender from and against any and all liabilities and costs which the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Revolving Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of

(i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit other than, in the case of such Issuing Bank, as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct, as a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment, or

(ii) the failure of such Issuing Bank to honor a drawing under a Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto Governmental Authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Governmental Acts”).

(b) As among the Borrower, the Revolving Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank, the Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of such Letter of Credit by, the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, subject to the provisions of the Letter of Credit applications and Letter of Credit reimbursement agreements executed by the Borrower at the time of request for any Letter of Credit, neither the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank nor any Revolving Lender shall be responsible (in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection therewith, as a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment):

(i) for the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of the Letters of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged;

(ii) for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason;

(iii) for failure of the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit to comply duly with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit;

(iv) for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex, or other similar form of teletransmission or otherwise;

(v) for errors in interpretation of technical trade terms;

(vi) for any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof;

(vii) for the misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; and

(viii) for any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Revolving Lenders, including, without limitation, any Governmental Acts. None of the above shall affect, impair, or prevent the vesting of any Issuing Bank’s rights or powers under this Section 3.10.

(c) In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions hereinabove set forth, any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Bank under or in connection with the Letters of Credit or any related certificates shall not, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, as a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment, put such Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent or any Revolving Lender under any resulting liability to the Borrower or relieve the Borrower of any of its obligations hereunder to any such Person.

(d) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 3.10 shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder, the termination of the Letters of Credit and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 3.11 Cash Collateral. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any application for a Letter of Credit, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, the Borrower shall, upon the Administrative Agent’s demand, deliver to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Banks, cash, or other collateral of a type satisfactory to the Required Lenders, having a value, as determined by such Revolving Lenders, equal to 105.0% of the aggregate outstanding L/C Obligations. In addition, but without duplication of amounts deposited pursuant to the foregoing sentence, if the Revolving Credit Availability is at any time less than the amount of contingent L/C Obligations outstanding at any time, the Borrower shall deposit cash collateral with the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to 105.0% of the amount by which such L/C Obligations exceed such Revolving Credit Availability. Any such collateral shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a separate account appropriately designated as a cash collateral account in relation to this Agreement and the Letters of Credit and retained by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Banks as collateral security for the Borrower’s obligations in respect of this Agreement and each of the Letters of Credit and L/C Drafts. Such amounts shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Banks for drawings or payments under or pursuant to Letters of Credit or L/C Drafts, or if no such reimbursement is required, to payment of such of the other Obligations as the Administrative Agent shall determine. If no Default shall be continuing, amounts remaining in any cash collateral account established

pursuant to this Section 3.11 which are not to be applied to reimburse the Issuing Banks for amounts actually paid or to be paid by the Issuing Banks in respect of a Letter of Credit or L/C Draft, shall be returned promptly to the Borrower (after deduction of the Administrative Agent’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with such cash collateral account) as the Letters of Credit expire.

ARTICLE 4

YIELD PROTECTION; TAXES

Section 4.01 Yield Protection. If any Change in Law:

(a) subjects any Lender, any applicable Lending Installation, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent to any Taxes on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes or (iii) Connection Income Taxes), or

(b) imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender, any applicable Lending Installation or any Issuing Bank (other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Rate Loans), or

(c) imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender, any applicable Lending Installation or any Issuing Bank of making, funding or maintaining its Loans or L/C Interests or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender, any applicable Lending Installation or any Issuing Bank in connection with its Loans or L/C Interests, or requires any Lender, any applicable Lending Installation or any Issuing Bank to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of Loans or L/C Interests held or interest received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, applicable Lending Installation, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent of making or maintaining its Loans, L/C Interests or Revolving Loan Commitment or to reduce the return received by such Lender, applicable Lending Installation, such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent in connection with such Loans, L/C Interests or Revolving Loan Commitment, then, within fifteen (15) days of demand by such Person, the Borrower shall pay such Person such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Person for such increased cost or reduction in amount received.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.01, if any Lender fails to notify the Borrower of any event or circumstance which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 4.01 within 180 days after such Lender obtains knowledge of such event or circumstance, then such Lender shall not be entitled to compensation from the Borrower for any amount arising prior to the date which is 180 days before the date on which such Lender notifies the Borrower of such event or circumstance.

Notwithstanding the above, a Lender will not be entitled to demand compensation under this Section 4.01 at any time if it is not the general practice and policy of such Lender to demand such compensation from similarly situated borrowers in similar circumstances under agreements containing provisions permitting such compensation to be claimed at such time.

Section 4.02 Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding liquidity or capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

Notwithstanding the above, a Lender will not be entitled to demand compensation under this Section 4.02 at any time if it is not the general practice and policy of such Lender to demand such compensation from similarly situated borrowers in similar circumstances under agreements containing provisions permitting such compensation to be claimed at such time.

Section 4.03 Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Rate Advance:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Base Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, as applicable (including because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Base Rate or the Eurodollar Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Advance for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Borrowing/Election Notice that requests the conversion of any Advance to, or continuation of any Advance as, a Eurodollar Advance shall be ineffective and (B) if any Borrowing/Election Notice requests a Eurodollar Advance, such Borrowing shall be made as Floating Rate Advance; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Advances, then the other Type of Advances shall be permitted.

(b) If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Eurodollar Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Margin); provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.03, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders of each Class stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 4.03(b), only to the extent the LIBO Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any Borrowing/Election Notice that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (y) if any Borrowing/Election Notice requests a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Floating Rate Borrowing.

Section 4.04 Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a Eurodollar Rate Loan is not made on the date specified by the Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders, or a Eurodollar Rate Loan is assigned other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor as a result of a request of the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, the Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom (excluding loss of margin), including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan.

Section 4.05 Taxes.

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 4.05, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding for Indemnified Taxes been made.

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.05) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.02(b) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 4.05, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(g) Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will

permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 4.05(g)(ii)(A), 4.05(g)(ii)(B) and 4.05(g)(ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable); or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (as applicable), a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-2 or Exhibit K-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(D) 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 Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by 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 Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Administrative Agent to comply with its 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 (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Escrow Date.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) FATCA Compliance. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower on or prior to the date of its execution of this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), executed copies of IRS form W-9.

(i) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 4.05 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.05), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (i) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (i), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (i) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

Section 4.06 Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Eurodollar Rate Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such Lender under Sections 4.01, 4.02 and 4.05 or to avoid the unavailability of Eurodollar Rate Loans under Section 4.03, so long as such designation is not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender or the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as applicable) to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.04 or 4.05. Such written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender or the Administrative Agent (as applicable) funded its Eurodollar Rate Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Eurodollar Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not, and without regard to loss of margin. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender or the Administrative Agent (as applicable) shall be payable on demand after receipt by the Borrower of such written statement. The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.04 and 4.05 shall survive payment of the Obligations, termination of the Letters of Credit and termination of this Agreement.

Section 6.02 Authority.

(a) Each of the Borrower and each of the Subsidiary Guarantors has the requisite power and authority

(b) The execution, delivery, performance and filing, as the case may be, of each of the Loan Documents which must be executed or filed by the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors or which have been executed or filed as required by this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or otherwise and to which the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, have been duly approved by the respective boards of directors and, if necessary, the shareholders of the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors, and such approvals have not been rescinded. No other action or proceedings on the part of the Borrower or the Subsidiary Guarantors are necessary to consummate such transactions.

(c) Each of the Loan Documents to which the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors is a party has been duly executed, delivered or filed, as the case may be, by such party and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms (except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles, including concepts of reasonableness, materiality, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law)), is in full force and effect and no material term or condition thereof has been amended, modified or waived from the terms and conditions contained in the Loan Documents delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Sections 5.01, 5.02 and 5.03 without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders if required by Section 9.03), and the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have performed and complied with all the material terms, provisions, agreements and conditions set forth therein and required to be performed or complied with by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries on or before the applicable date, and no unmatured default, default or breach of any covenant by any such party exists thereunder.

Section 6.03 No Conflict; Governmental Consents. The execution, delivery and performance of each of the Loan Documents to which the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors is a party (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except such as have been obtained or made and are (or will so be) in full force and effect and except for filings necessary to perfect Liens created under the Loan Documents, (b) will not violate any applicable law, including any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors, (d) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture or agreement (including the Existing Senior Note Indenture, the Senior USD Note Indenture and the Senior Euro Note Indenture or other material instrument binding upon the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their assets), or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, and (e) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, except Liens created pursuant to the Loan Documents, except in the case of clauses (b) and (d) above, for a violation or creation, as applicable, which would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.04 Financial Statements. The Historical Information heretofore delivered to the Lenders was prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in effect on the date the statements were prepared and the statements present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition and operations of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries at such date and the consolidated results of their operations for the period then ended.

Section 6.05 No Material Adverse Change. Since September 30, 2017, there has occurred no change in the business, properties or financial condition of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole or any other event which has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.06 Taxes.

(a) Tax Examinations. All deficiencies which have been asserted against the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries as a result of any federal, state, local or foreign Tax examination for each taxable year in respect of which an examination has been conducted have been fully paid or finally settled or are being contested in good faith and have been reserved for in the Borrower’s consolidated financial statements to the extent, if any, required by GAAP.

(b) Payment of Taxes. All income and other material Tax returns and reports of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries required to be filed have been timely filed, and all material Taxes shown in such returns or reports to be due and payable have been paid except those items which are being contested in good faith and have been reserved for in the Borrower’s consolidated financial statements to the extent, if any, required by GAAP. The Borrower has no knowledge of any proposed Tax assessment against the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that will have or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.07 Litigation; Loss Contingencies and Violations. There are no actions, suits, proceedings, arbitrations or, to the knowledge of any member of the Borrower’s Senior Management Team, threatened in writing against the Borrower, Energizer Holdings, Inc. or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (after giving effect to the Acquisition) or any property of any of them (including, without limitation, any Intellectual Property) that (a) challenges the validity or the enforceability of any material provision of the Loan Documents or (b) has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (other than as set forth on Schedule 6.07). There is no material loss contingency within the meaning of GAAP which has not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Borrower prepared and delivered pursuant to Section 7.01(a) for the fiscal period during which such material loss contingency was incurred. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is (i) in violation of any applicable Requirements of Law which violation will have or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) subject to or in default with respect to any final judgment, writ, injunction, restraining order or order of any nature, decree, rule or regulation of any court or Governmental Authority which will have or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.08 Subsidiaries.

Except as disclosed on Schedule 6.08 (as so supplemented), none of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is subject to any vesting, redemption, or repurchase agreement, and there are no warrants or options outstanding with respect to such Capital Stock. The outstanding Capital Stock of the Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries is duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and the stock of the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries is not Margin Stock.

Section 6.09 ERISA.

(a) No Benefit Plan has failed to satisfy the “minimum funding standard” (as defined in Sections 302(a)(2) of ERISA and 412(a) of the Code) whether or not waived. Neither the Borrower nor any member of the Controlled Group has incurred any material liability to the PBGC which remains outstanding other than the payment of premiums. As of the last day of the most recent prior plan year, the market value of assets under each Benefit Plan, other than any Multiemployer Plan, was not less than the present value of benefit liabilities thereunder (determined in accordance with the actuarial valuation assumptions described therein) by an amount which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any member of the Controlled Group has (a) failed to make a required contribution or payment to a Multiemployer Plan of a material amount or (b) incurred a material complete or partial withdrawal under Section 4203 or Section 4205 of ERISA from a Multiemployer Plan. Neither the Borrower nor any member of the Controlled Group has failed to make an installment or any other payment of a material amount required under Section 412 of the Code on or before the due date for such installment or other payment.

(b) Each Plan, Foreign Employee Benefit Plan and Non-ERISA Commitment complies in all material respects in form, and has been administered in all material respects in accordance with its terms and, in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations, including but not limited to ERISA and the Code. There have been no and there is no prohibited transaction described in Sections 406 of ERISA or 4975 of the Code with respect to any Plan for which a statutory or administrative exemption does not exist which could reasonably be expected to subject the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to material liability. Neither the Borrower nor any member of the Controlled Group has taken or failed to take any action which would constitute or result in a Termination Event, which action or inaction could reasonably be expected to subject the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to material liability. Neither the Borrower nor any member of the Controlled Group is subject to any material liability under, or has any potential material liability under, Section 4063, 4064, 4069, 4204 or 4212(c) of ERISA. The present value of the aggregate liabilities to provide all of the accrued benefits under any Foreign Pension Plan do not exceed the current fair market value of the assets held in trust or other funding vehicle for such plan by an amount which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. With respect to any Foreign Employee Benefit Plan other than a Foreign Pension Plan, reasonable reserves have been established in accordance with prudent business practice or where required by ordinary accounting practices in the jurisdiction in which such plan is maintained.

(c) For purposes of this Section 6.09, “material” means any amount, noncompliance or other basis for liability which could reasonably be expected to subject the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to liability, individually or in the aggregate with each other basis for liability under this Section 6.09, in excess of $50,000,000.

Section 6.10 Accuracy of Information. The information, exhibits and reports furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender in connection with the negotiation of, or compliance with, the Loan Documents, the representations and warranties of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries contained in the Loan Documents, and all certificates and documents delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the terms thereof, taken as a whole, do not contain as of the date furnished any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial information, Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by it to be reasonable at the time (it being understood that such projected information may vary from actual results and that such variances may be material).

Section 6.11 Securities Activities. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is engaged in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock. The value of all Margin Stock held by the Borrower constitutes less than 25.0% of the value, as determined in accordance with the Regulation U, of all assets of the Borrower.

Section 6.12 [Reserved].

Section 6.13 Compliance with Laws; No Default.

(a) The Borrower has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance in all material respects by the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions, and the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their respective officers and employees and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, their respective directors and agents, are in compliance with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects. None of (i) the Borrower, any

Subsidiary or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, any of their respective directors, officers or employees, or (ii) to the knowledge of the Borrower, any agent of the Borrower or any Subsidiary that will act in any capacity in connection with or benefit from the credit facility established hereby, is a Sanctioned Person.

(b) The Borrower and each Restricted Subsidiary owns, or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property (as defined in the Collateral Agreement), material to its business and to the knowledge of the Borrower, the conduct of their respective businesses, including the use of such Intellectual Property by the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, nor any transaction contemplated under any such agreement, will affect any right, title or interest of the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary in and to any of such assets in a manner that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 6.15 Statutory Indebtedness Restrictions. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940, or any other federal or state statute or regulation which limits its ability to incur indebtedness or its ability to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 6.16 Insurance. The insurance policies and programs in effect with respect to the respective properties, assets, liabilities and business of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries reflect coverage that is reasonably consistent with prudent industry practice.

ARTICLE 9

ACCELERATION, DEFAULTING LENDERS; WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES

Section 9.01 Termination of Commitments; Acceleration. If any Default described in Sections 8.01(e) or 8.01(f) occurs with respect to the Borrower, the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation of the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit hereunder shall automatically terminate and the Obligations shall immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. If any other Default occurs, the Required Lenders may terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation of the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, or declare the Obligations to be due and payable, or both, whereupon the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower expressly waives. Without in any way limiting the foregoing, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to exercise its right to require cash collateral in support of 105.0% of the then aggregate outstanding L/C Obligations in accordance with Section 3.11.

Section 9.02 Defaulting Lender. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(c)(i);

(b) the Commitments, Loans and other Revolving Credit Obligations of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or Required Pro Rata Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.03); provided that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby;

(i) all or any part of the Swing Line Obligations and L/C Obligations of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Revolving Facility but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Obligations plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Obligations and L/C Obligations does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Loan Commitments;

122

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swing Line Obligations and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of each Issuing Bank only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 3.11 for so long as such L/C Obligations are outstanding;

(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.08 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations during the period such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations are cash collateralized;

(iv) if the L/C Obligations of the non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 3.08 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares of the Revolving Facility; and

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations are neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all Commitment Fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment that was utilized by such L/C Obligations) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 3.08 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations shall be payable to such Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such L/C Obligations are reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing Line Bank shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding L/C Obligations will be 100.0% covered by the Revolving Loan Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 9.02(c), and participating interests in any such newly made Swing Line Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 9.02(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a parent of any Lender shall occur following the Escrow Date and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swing Line Bank or any Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swing Line Bank shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and such Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swing Line Bank or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swing Line Bank or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

123

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Swing Line Bank and the Issuing Banks each agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Obligations and L/C Obligations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Revolving Lenders (other than Swing Line Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Facility.

Section 9.03 Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.03, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Unmatured Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Unmatured Default at the time.

(b) Except as provided in Sections 2.05(b), 2.20, 4.03(b) and 9.03(c), none of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders and, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders, provided that

(i) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to cure any technical error, ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency so long as, in each case, the Lenders shall have received at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment; and

(ii) no such agreement shall (A) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (B) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon or reduce or forgive any interest or fees (including any prepayment fees) payable hereunder without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (C) postpone the scheduled maturity date of any Loan, or the date of any scheduled payment of the principal amount of any Loan under Sections 2.04(c), 2.14 or 2.21,

124

breach of Section 7.04 or waive any Default resulting from a failure to perform or observe the requirements of Section 7.04 without the written consent of the Required Pro Rata Lenders; provided, however, that the waivers described in this clause (5) shall not require the consent of any Lenders other than the Required Pro Rata Lenders and (6) any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of the Lenders of one or more Classes (but not the Lenders of any other Class), may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the requisite number or percentage in interest of each affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be required of, in the case of any amendment, waiver or other modification referred to in clause (c) of the first proviso of this paragraph, any Lender that receives payment in full of the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by, and all other amounts owing to, such Lender or accrued for the account of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents at the time such amendment, waiver or other modification becomes effective and whose Commitments terminate by the terms and upon the effectiveness of such amendment, waiver or other modification.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any Credit Party, consent to a departure by any Loan Party from any covenant of such Loan Party set forth in this Agreement, the Collateral Agreement or in any other Collateral Document to the extent such departure is consistent with the authority of the Administrative Agent set forth in the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement.” Additionally, the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any Lender: enter into any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement or Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) to the extent the Loan Parties have incurred Indebtedness secured by Liens that are required to be subject to the Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement or Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement.

(d) The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, waivers or other modifications on behalf of such Lender. Any amendment, waiver or other modification effected in accordance with this Section 9.03 shall be binding upon each Person that is at the time thereof a Lender and each Person that subsequently becomes a Lender.

(e) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement with respect to the Class of Loans or Commitments that is the subject of the related consent, waiver, or amendment, as applicable, pursuant to Section 2.19; provided that the applicable Replacement Lender shall have consented to the proposed amendment, waiver or consent.

126

Section 9.04 Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of the Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Loan or issuance of such Letter of Credit shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 9.03, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set forth. All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders until all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been fully and indefeasibly paid and satisfied in cash, all financing arrangements among the Borrower and the Lenders shall have been terminated and all of the Letters of Credit shall have expired, been canceled or terminated.

ARTICLE 10

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 10.01 Survival of Representations. All representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in this Agreement shall survive delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans herein contemplated.

Section 10.02 Governmental Regulation. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender shall be obligated to extend credit to the Borrower in violation of any limitation or prohibition provided by any applicable statute or regulation.

Section 10.03 Performance of Obligations. The Borrower agrees that after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, the Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, make any payment or perform any act required of the Borrower under any Loan Document to the extent the Administrative Agent determines that such action shall be necessary or advisable in order to protect or preserve the rights of the Lenders and Issuing Banks hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to give the Borrower notice of any action taken under this Section 10.03 prior to the taking of such action or promptly thereafter provided the failure to give such notice shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect thereof. The Borrower agrees to pay the Administrative Agent, upon demand, the principal amount of all funds advanced by the Administrative Agent under this Section 10.03, together with interest thereon at the rate from time to time applicable to Floating Rate Loans from the date of such advance until the outstanding principal balance thereof is paid in full. If the Borrower fails to make payment in respect of any such advance under this Section 10.03 within one (1) Business Day after the date the Borrower receives written demand therefor from the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender and each Lender agrees that it shall thereupon make available to the Administrative Agent, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such advance. If such funds are not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within one (1) Business Day after the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover any such amount from such Lender together with interest thereon at the NYFRB Rate for each day during the period commencing on the date of such

127

demand and ending on the date such amount is received. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of any such unreimbursed advance under this Section 10.03 shall neither relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such advance on the date such payment is to be made nor increase the obligation of any other Lender to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. All outstanding principal of, and interest on, advances made under this Section 10.03 shall constitute Obligations subject to the terms of this Agreement until paid in full by the Borrower.

Section 10.04 Headings. Section headings in the Loan Documents are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the provisions of the Loan Documents.

Section 10.05 Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents embody the entire agreement and understanding among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and supersede all prior agreements and understandings among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders relating to the subject matter thereof other than the terms of any prior agreements or understandings which are expressly stated to survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

Section 10.06 Several Obligations; Benefits of this Agreement. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and no Lender shall be the partner or agent of any other Lender (except to the extent to which the Administrative Agent is authorized to act as such). The failure of any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns.

Section 10.07 Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) Expenses. The Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers for any reasonable and documented costs, internal charges and out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of (i) one primary counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and their Affiliates and (ii) any local counsel to the Lenders retained by the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent, limited to one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction, paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Arrangers in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, syndication, distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet or through a service such as IntraLinks) review, amendment modification and, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Unmatured Default, administration of the Loan Documents. The Borrower also agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers and the Lenders for any documented costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one primary counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and their Affiliates and one primary counsel for the Lenders) paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Arrangers or any Lender in connection with the collection of the Obligations and enforcement of the Loan Documents.

128

(b) Indemnity. The Borrower further agrees to defend, protect, indemnify, and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each Arranger, the Syndication Agent, each Co-Documentation, each Issuing Bank, Agent and each and all of the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates, and each of such Administrative Agent’s, Syndication Agent’s, Co-Documentation Agent’s, Issuing Bank’s, Arranger’s, Lender’s, or Affiliate’s respective officers, directors, trustees, investment advisors, employees, attorneys, partners, members, advisors, agents and other representatives and controlling persons (including, without limitation, those retained in connection with the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any of the conditions set forth in Article 5) (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding, whether or not such Indemnitees shall be designated a party thereto), whether or not arising in connection with any third party claim, imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Indemnitees in any manner relating to or arising out of:

(i) this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, or any act, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, the making of the Loans, and the issuance of and participation in Letters of Credit hereunder, the management of such Loans or Letters of Credit, the use or intended use of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder, or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; or

(ii) any liabilities, obligations, responsibilities, losses, damages, personal injury, death, punitive damages, economic damages, consequential damages, treble damages, intentional, willful or wanton injury, damage or threat to the environment, natural resources or public health or welfare, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorney, expert and consulting fees and costs of investigation, feasibility or remedial action studies), fines, penalties and monetary sanctions and interest, whether direct or indirect, known or unknown, absolute or contingent, past, present or future, relating to any Environmental, Health or Safety Requirement of Laws and arising from or in connection with the past, present or future operations of the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors in interest or the past, present or future environmental, health or safety condition of any respective property of the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors in interest, the presence of asbestos-containing materials at any respective property of the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or any of their respective predecessors in interest or the Release or threatened Release of any Contaminant (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”);

provided, however, the Borrower shall have no obligation to an Indemnitee hereunder with respect to Indemnified Matters to the extent that such liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, claim, cost or expenses (x) has been found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee with respect to the Loan Documents or (ii) a material breach of the obligations of such Indemnitee with respect to the Loan Documents or (y) has resulted from a dispute solely among Indemnitees that does not involve an act or omission by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates and is not brought against such Indemnitee in its capacity as an agent or arranger or similar role with respect to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees. This Section 10.07(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes, other than Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

129

Each Indemnitee, with respect to any action against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought under this Section, shall give written notice of the commencement of such action to the Borrower within a reasonable time after such Indemnitee is made a party to such action. Upon receipt of any such notice by the Borrower, unless such Indemnitee shall be advised by its counsel that there are or may be legal defenses available to such Indemnitee that are different from, in addition to, or in conflict with, the defenses available to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Borrower may participate with the Indemnitee in the defense of such Indemnified Matter, including the employment of counsel consented to by such Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, nothing provided herein shall entitle (a) the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to assume the defense of such Indemnified Matter or (b) any Indemnitee to effect any settlement in respect of any indemnified matter without the Borrower’s consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, but if settled with the Borrower’s consent, or if there is a final judgment in any such action, proceeding or investigation, the Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee to the extent and in the manner set forth above. The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnitee, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened claim, litigation, investigation or proceedings relating to the foregoing (the “Proceedings”) in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnitee unless (a) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such Proceedings and (b) such settlement does not include any statement as to, or any admission of, fault or wrongdoing, by or on behalf of such Indemnitee.

(c) Waiver of Certain Claims; Settlement of Claims. The Borrower further agrees to assert no claim against any of the Indemnitees on any theory of liability seeking consequential, special, indirect, exemplary or punitive damages. No settlement of any claim asserted against or likely to be asserted against an Indemnitee shall be entered into by the Borrower or any if its Subsidiaries with respect to any claim, litigation, arbitration or other proceeding relating to or arising out of the transactions evidenced by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Indemnitee is a party thereto) unless such settlement releases such Indemnitee from any and all liability with respect thereto.

(d) Survival of Agreements. The obligations and agreements of the Borrower under this Section 10.07 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Section 10.08 Numbers of Documents. All statements, notices, closing documents, and requests hereunder shall be furnished to the Administrative Agent with sufficient counterparts so that the Administrative Agent may furnish one to each of the Lenders.

Section 10.09 Accounting. Except as provided to the contrary herein, all accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted and all accounting determinations hereunder shall be made in accordance with GAAP. If the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower wishes to amend any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change in GAAP (or in the application thereof) occurring after the Escrow Date on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any

130

provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then the compliance of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries with such provision shall be determined on the basis of GAAP as in effect (and as applied) immediately before the relevant change became effective, until either such notice is withdrawn or such provision is amended in a manner satisfactory to the Borrower and the Required Lenders. Until such notice is withdrawn or the relevant provision is so amended, the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement setting forth a reconciliation between calculations made with respect to the relevant provision before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made without giving effect to (i) any election under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, or any successor thereto (including pursuant to the Accounting Standards Codification), to value any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary at “fair value,” as defined therein, and (ii) any change in GAAP occurring after the Escrow Date as a result of the adoption of any proposals set forth in the Proposed Accounting Standards Update, Leases (Topic 840), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on August 17, 2010, or any other proposals issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in connection therewith, in each case if such change would require treating any lease (or similar arrangement conveying the right to use) as a capital lease where such lease (or similar arrangement) was not required to be so treated under GAAP as in effect on the Escrow Date.

Section 10.10 Severability of Provisions. Any provision in any Loan Document that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable.

Section 10.11 Nonliability of Lenders. The relationship between the Borrower, on one hand, and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, on the other hand, shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or operations.

Section 10.12 GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York without regard to principles of conflicts of laws that would otherwise direct the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction; provided, however, that (i) the interpretation of the definition of Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement as in effect on January 15, 2018) and whether or not a Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement as in effect on January 15, 2018) has occurred, (ii) the determination of the accuracy of any Specified Acquisition Agreement Representations and whether as a result of any inaccuracy thereof the Borrower (or the Borrower’s affiliates) has the right to terminate its (or their) obligations under the Acquisition Agreement or to decline to consummate the Acquisition (in each case in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement as in effect on January 15, 2018) as a result of a breach of such representation or warranty and (iii) the determination of whether the transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement have been consummated in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, in each case, shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted solely in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware.

ARTICLE 11

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 11.01 Appointment and Authorization.

(a) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent and its successors and assigns to serve as the administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and each Lender and each Issuing Bank authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under such agreements and to exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents.

(b) As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing, such instructions shall be binding upon each Lender and each Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that

(i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Banks with respect to such action or

134

(ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(c) In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i) the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, Issuing Bank or holder of any other obligation other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and

(ii) nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account;

(d) The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.

135

(e) In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, payments made by an Issuing Bank pursuant to a Letter of Credit and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15, 2.17 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each other Credit Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the other Credit Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 9.03). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Unmatured Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of unmatured default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Documents or the occurrence of any Unmatured Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 5 or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

Section 11.04 Posting of Communications.

(a) The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks by posting the Communications on IntraLinks™, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

(b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Escrow Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

(c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ARRANGER, ANY CO-DOCUMENTATION AGENT, ANY SYNDICATION AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY,

138

“APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

(d) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

(e) Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.

(f) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

Section 11.05 Successor Agent.

(a) Subject to the terms of this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time from its capacity as such. In connection with such resignation, the Administrative Agent shall give notice of its intent to resign to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor administrative agent. If no successor administrative agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and such successor.

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this Section 11.06, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (a) the

139

retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Collateral Document for the benefit of the Credit Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Credit Parties, and continue to be entitled to the rights set forth in such Collateral Document and Loan Document and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this Section (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further action under any Collateral Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and (b) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, provided, further that (i) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (ii) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall also directly be given or made to each Lender. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.07, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its subagents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (a) above.

Section 11.06 Credit Decision.

(a) Each Lender represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any other Lender, or any Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Escrow Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on each of the Escrow Date and the Closing Date.

140

Section 11.07 Administrative Agent, Arrangers, Syndication Agent, Co-Documentation Agents. None of the Persons identified on the cover page to this Agreement, the signature pages to this Agreement or otherwise in this Agreement as a “Syndication Agent”, “Co-Documentation Agent” or “Arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than if such Person is a Lender, those applicable to all Lenders as such, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Persons identified on the cover page to this Agreement, the signature pages to this Agreement or otherwise in this Agreement as a “Syndication Agent”, “Co-Documentation Agent” or “Arranger” shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary duty to or fiduciary relationship with any Lender. In addition to the agreement set forth in Section 11.07, each of the Lenders acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

Section 11.08 Collateral Matters.

(a) Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.08 or with respect to a Credit Party’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Credit Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Credit Parties in accordance with the terms thereof.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no arrangements in respect of Cash Management Services the obligations under which constitute Secured Cash Management Obligations and no Hedging Agreement the obligations under which constitute Secured Hedging Obligations, will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Credit Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Loan Party under any Loan Document. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Credit Party that is a party to any such arrangement in respect of Cash Management Services or a Hedging Agreement, as applicable, shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Credit Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.

(c) The Credit Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.03(b)(ii). The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders or any other Credit Party for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

Section 11.09 Credit Bidding. The Credit Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase

141

(either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Credit Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Credit Parties’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 9.02 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Credit Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Credit Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Credit Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Credit Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Credit Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Credit Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Credit Party (and/or any designee of the Credit Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

ARTICLE 12

SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS

Section 12.01 Setoff. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if any Default occurs and is continuing, any indebtedness from any Lender to the Borrower (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender, whether or not the Obligations, or any part hereof, shall then be due.

Section 12.02 Ratable Payments. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its respective Loans (other than payments received pursuant to Sections 4.01, 4.02 or 4.04 or as otherwise provided herein) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Loans held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its ratable proportion of the applicable Loans. If any Lender, whether in connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for its Obligation or such amounts which may be subject to setoff, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral ratably in proportion to the obligations owing to them. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.

Section 12.03 Application of Payments. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.02, the Administrative Agent shall, unless otherwise specified at the direction of the Required Lenders which direction shall be consistent with the last sentence of this Section 12.03, apply all payments and prepayments in respect of any Obligations received after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or Unmatured Default in the following order:

(a) first, to pay interest on and then principal of any portion of the Loans which the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower;

(b) second, to pay interest on and then principal of any advance made under Section 10.03 for which the Administrative Agent has not then been paid by the Borrower or reimbursed by the Lenders;

(c) third, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees, expenses, reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Administrative Agent;

(d) fourth, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees, expenses, reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Lenders and the issuer(s) of Letters of Credit;

(e) fifth, to pay interest due in respect of Swing Line Loans;

(f) sixth, to pay interest due in respect of Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) and L/C Obligations and any fees, premiums and scheduled periodic payments on any Banking Services Obligations and Hedging Obligations, ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause sixth held by them;

143

(g) seventh, to the ratable payment or prepayment of principal outstanding on Swing Line Loans;

(h) eighth, to the ratable payment or prepayment of principal outstanding on Loans (other than Swing Line Loans), Reimbursement Obligations, and all other Banking Services Obligations and Hedging Obligations, ratably among the Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause eighth held by them;

(i) ninth, to provide required cash collateral, if required pursuant to Section 3.11; and

(j) tenth, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations owing to the Secured Parties on such date.

Unless otherwise designated (which designation shall only be applicable prior to the occurrence of a Default) by the Borrower, all principal payments in respect of Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) shall be applied to the outstanding Loans first, to repay outstanding Floating Rate Loans, and then to repay outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans with those Eurodollar Rate Loans which have earlier expiring Interest Periods being repaid prior to those which have later expiring Interest Periods. The order of priority set forth in this Section 12.03 and the related provisions of this Agreement are set forth solely to determine the rights and priorities of the Secured Parties as among themselves.

Section 12.04 Relations Among Lenders.

(a) Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights of any Lender in accordance with Section 12.01, the proceeds of which are applied in accordance with this Agreement, and except as set forth in the following sentence, each Lender agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against the Borrower or any other obligor hereunder or with respect to any Loan Document, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders or, as may be provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, at the direction of the Administrative Agent.

(b) The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Administrative Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender. The Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to enforce on the payment of the principal of and interest on any Loan after the date such principal or interest has become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line Bank, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than Disqualified Lenders) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the proviso to Section 9.03 that adversely affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (b) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.03, 4.04 and 4.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 13.03. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.01 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 12.02 as though it were a Lender.

(b) Limitation of Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 4.01, 4.02 or 4.05 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent (i) such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the

147

Participant acquired the applicable participation, or (ii) the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.05 unless such Participant agrees to comply with Section 4.05 as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.05(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a nonfiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in the obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such interest is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

Section 13.03 Assignments.

(a) Consents.

(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (other than any Disqualified Lender, any Defaulting Lender or its Lender Parent or Subsidiaries, any natural person and, except as provided in Section 13.03(g) below, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries) (the “Purchasers”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

(A) the Borrower; provided that no consent of Borrower shall be required (x) for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, (y) for an assignment by any Initial Lender in connection with the primary syndication of the Term Facilities or the Revolving Facility to Lenders selected by the Initial Lenders in consultation with the Borrower and (z) if a Default under Sections 8.01(a), 8.01(e), or 8.01(f) has occurred and is continuing, for any other assignment; provided, further that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and

(B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and

148

The Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such, shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders (or providing the list to the Lenders). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such, shall not (1) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (2) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender. The Administrative Agent shall post or otherwise make available to Lenders a list of all Disqualified Lenders.

(b) Conditions. Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than (x) in the case of Term Loans, $1,000,000 and (y) in the case of Revolving Loan Commitment, $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided, that in any case, each assignment will be in an amount of an integral multiple of $1,000,000;

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under each Facility under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of its Commitments or Loans;

(iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (except, in the case of contemporaneous assignments by any Lender to one or more Approved Funds, only a single processing and recording fee shall be payable for such assignments); and

(iv) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its affiliates, the Subsidiary Guarantors and their related parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.

(c) Effect; Closing Date. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in

149

the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.03, 4.04, 4.05 and 10.07). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 13.03 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 Section 13.02.

(d) The Register. The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Loan Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and L/C Drafts owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Banks and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Recording. Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in this Section 13.03 and any written consent to such assignment required by this Section 13.03, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.02(d), 2.17, 3.06, 3.07 or 11.04, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(f) Pledge to a Federal Reserve Bank. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; 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.

(g) Dutch Auctions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.03 or any other provision of this Agreement, so long as no Unmatured Default or Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, each Term Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of the Term Loans owing to it to the Borrower on a non-pro rata basis, subject to the following limitations:

150

(i) Such sale, assignment or transfer shall be pursuant to one or more modified Dutch auctions conducted by the Borrower (each, an “Auction”) to repurchase all or any portion of the Term Loans; provided that (x) notice of and the option to participate in the Auction shall be provided to all Term Lenders and (y) the Auction shall be conducted pursuant to such procedures as the Auction Manager may establish, which are consistent with this Section 13.03(g) and the Auction Procedures and are otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, the Auction Manager and the Administrative Agent;

(ii) With respect to all repurchases made by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 13.03(g), (x) the Borrower shall deliver to the Auction Manager an officer’s certificate stating that, as of the launch date of the related Auction and the effective date of any such repurchase, it is not in possession of any information regarding the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, or their assets, the Loan Parties’ ability to perform the Obligations or any other matter regarding the Borrower or its Subsidiaries that may be material to a decision by any Term Lender to participate in any Auction or repurchase any such Term Loans that has not previously been disclosed to the Auction Manager, the Administrative Agent and the nonpublic Lenders, (y) the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any borrowings under the Revolving Facility to repurchase such Term Loans and (z) the assigning Lender and the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Auction Manager an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such repurchase; and

(iii) Immediately following a repurchase by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 13.03(g), the Term Loans so repurchased shall, without further action by any Person, be deemed automatically canceled and no longer outstanding (and may not be resold by the Borrower or such Subsidiary) for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Loan Documents and the Administrative Agent shall reflect such repurchase in the Register.

Section 13.04 Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each Arranger agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any Governmental Authority (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by Requirement of Law or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 13.04, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and their obligations, (g) on a confidential basis to (1) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided for herein or (2) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of identification numbers with respect to the credit facilities provided for herein, (h) with the consent of the Borrower or (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or

151

any Arranger on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or (iii) is independently developed, discovered or arrived at by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Arranger. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business or the Collateral, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Arranger or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower and other than information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 13.05 Dissemination of Information. The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its Subsidiaries; provided that prior to any such disclosure, such prospective Transferee shall agree to preserve in accordance with Section 13.04 the confidentiality of any confidential information described therein.

(i) any extension, renewal, settlement, compromise, waiver or release in respect of any obligation of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person under any Secured Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise;

(ii) any modification or amendment of or supplement to any Secured Agreement;

(iii) any release, impairment, non-perfection or invalidity of any direct or indirect security for any obligation of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person under any Secured Agreement;

(iv) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any of their respective subsidiaries, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any of their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person under any Secured Agreement;

(v) the existence of any claim, set-off or other right that such Guarantor may have at any time against the Borrower, any other Guarantor, any Secured Party or any other Person, whether in connection with the Loan Documents or any unrelated transactions, provided that nothing herein shall prevent the assertion of any such claim by separate suit or compulsory counterclaim;

(vi) any invalidity or unenforceability relating to or against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person for any reason of any Secured Agreement, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit the payment of any Secured Obligation by the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person;

(vii) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind by the Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other party to any Secured Agreement, any Secured Party or any other Person, or any other circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this clause (vii), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to any obligation of any Guarantor hereunder, other than satisfaction of the Release Conditions; or

(viii) any law, regulation, decree or order of any jurisdiction, or any other event, affecting any term of any obligation or any Secured Party’s rights with respect thereto.

(i) Subject to Section 10.14 of the Credit Agreement, all the Secured Guarantees will be released when all the Release Conditions are satisfied. If at any time any payment of a Secured Obligation is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned upon the insolvency or receivership of the Borrower or otherwise, the Secured Guarantees shall be reinstated with respect thereto as though such payment had been due but not made at such time.

(ii) If any Subsidiary Guarantor shall cease to be a Restricted Subsidiary (including upon the consummation of any voluntary liquidation or dissolution of such Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with Section 7.03(c) of the Credit Agreement), such Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from the Secured Guarantee applicable to such Subsidiary Guarantor and from any and all obligations thereunder; provided that, if so required by the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction resulting in a Subsidiary Guarantor ceasing to be a Restricted Subsidiary and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise.

(iii) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 2(c) and Section 10.14 of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to Borrower all documents that Borrower reasonably requests to evidence such termination. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

(d) Waiver by Guarantors. Each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person.

(e) Subrogation. A Guarantor that makes a payment with respect to a Secured Obligation hereunder shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Borrower with respect to such payment; provided that no Guarantor shall enforce any payment by way of subrogation against the Borrower, or by reason of contribution against any other guarantor of such Secured Obligation, until all the Release Conditions have been satisfied.

(f) Stay of Acceleration. If acceleration of the time for payment of any Secured Obligation by the Borrower is stayed by reason of the insolvency or receivership of the Borrower or otherwise, all Secured Obligations otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any Secured Agreement shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors hereunder forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent.

(g) Right of Set-Off. If any Secured Obligation is not paid promptly when due (after the passage of any applicable grace period set forth in any of the Loan Documents), each of the Secured Parties and their respective Affiliates is authorized, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Secured Party or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against the obligations of such Guarantor under its Secured Guarantee, irrespective of whether or not such Secured Party shall have made any demand thereunder and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Secured Party under this subsection are in addition to all other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Secured Party may have.

(h) Continuing Guarantee. Each Secured Guarantee is a continuing guarantee, shall be binding on the relevant Guarantor and its successors and assigns, and shall be enforceable by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties. If all or part of any Secured Party’s interest in any Secured Obligation is assigned or otherwise transferred, the transferor’s rights under each Secured Guarantee, to the extent applicable to the obligation so transferred, shall automatically be transferred with such obligation.

(i) Limitation on Obligations of Subsidiary Guarantor. The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under its Secured Guarantee shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such Secured Guarantee subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of applicable law.

(f) All Pledged Equity Interests owned by such Grantor are owned by it free and clear of any Lien other than (i) the Transaction Liens, (ii) any inchoate tax liens and (iii) any Liens permitted under Section 7.03(b) of the Credit Agreement. All shares of Capital Stock included in such Pledged Equity Interests (including shares of Capital Stock in respect of which such Grantor owns a Security Entitlement) have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable. None of such Pledged Equity Interests is subject to any option to purchase or similar right of any Person. Such Grantor is not and will not become a party to or otherwise bound by any agreement (except the Loan Documents and except as permitted under the Credit Agreement) which restricts in any manner the rights of any present or future holder of any Pledged Equity Interest with respect thereto.

(g) Such Grantor has (i) legal title to all Collateral (tangible and intangible, real or personal) owned by it or (ii) a valid leasehold interest in all of its material leased assets, except, in the case of (i) and (ii), for minor defects in title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted, and all such assets and property are free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens.

Such Grantor owns, or is licensed to use, all Intellectual Property material to the operation of its business, and the conduct thereof, including the use of such Intellectual Property by such Grantor, to the best of such Grantor’s knowledge, does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person.

(h) Such Grantor has not performed any acts that are reasonably likely to prevent the Administrative Agent from enforcing any of the provisions of the Security Documents or that would limit the Administrative Agent in any such enforcement. No financing statement, security agreement, mortgage or similar or equivalent document or instrument covering all or part of the Collateral owned by such Grantor is on file or of record in any jurisdiction in which such filing or recording would be effective to perfect or record a Lien on such Collateral, except financing statements, mortgages or other similar or equivalent documents with respect to Permitted Liens.

(j) When the relevant Mortgages have been duly executed and delivered, the Transaction Liens on all Real Property Collateral owned by such Grantor as of the Closing Date will have been validly created and will secure all the Secured Obligations or such Grantor’s Secured Guarantee, as the case may be.

When, in addition to the filing of such UCC financing statements, the applicable Intellectual Property Filings have been made with respect to such Grantor’s Recordable Intellectual Property (including any future filings required pursuant to Sections 5(a) and 6(a)), the Transaction Liens will constitute perfected security interests in all right, title and interest of such Grantor in its Recordable Intellectual Property to the extent that security interests therein may be perfected by such filings, prior to all Liens and rights of others therein (except Permitted Liens). Except for (i) the filing of such UCC financing statements, (ii) such Intellectual Property Filings and (iii) the due recordation of the Mortgages, no registration, recordation or filing with any governmental body, agency or official is required in connection with the execution or delivery of the Security Documents or is necessary for the validity or enforceability thereof or for the perfection or due recordation of the Transaction Liens or for the enforcement of the Transaction Liens.

(m) Such Grantor has taken, and will continue to take, all actions necessary under the UCC to perfect its interest in any Accounts or Chattel Paper purchased or otherwise acquired by it, as against its assignors and creditors of its assignors.

(i) create, preserve, perfect, confirm or validate the Transaction Liens on such Grantor’s Collateral;

(ii) in the case of Pledged Deposit Accounts, Pledged Investment Property and Pledged Letter-of-Credit Rights, cause the Administrative Agent to have Control thereof;

(iii) enable the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties to obtain the full benefits of the Security Documents; or

(iv) enable the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce any of its rights, powers and remedies with respect to any of such Grantor’s Collateral, subject to the exceptions and exclusions in the Loan Documents.

Such Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and file such financing statements or continuation statements in such jurisdictions with such descriptions of collateral (including “all assets” or “all personal property” or other words to that effect) and other information set forth therein as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the purposes set forth in the preceding sentence. Each Grantor also ratifies its authorization for the Administrative Agent to file in any such jurisdiction any initial financing statements or amendments thereto if filed prior to the date hereof. The Administrative Agent is further authorized to file with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office or any similar office in any other country) such documents as may be necessary or advisable for the purpose of perfecting, confirming, continuing, enforcing or protecting the security interests granted by each Grantor, without the signature of any Grantor, and naming any Grantor or the Grantors as debtors and the Administrative Agent as secured party. The Borrower will pay the costs of, or incidental to, any Intellectual Property Filings and any recording or filing of any financing or continuation statements or other documents recorded or filed pursuant hereto.

(b) Such Grantor will not (i) change its name or organizational form or structure, (ii) change its location (determined as provided in UCC Section 9-307) or (iii) become bound, as provided in UCC Section 9-203(d) or otherwise, by a security agreement entered into by another Person, unless it shall have given the Administrative Agent at least thirty (30) days prior notice thereof and shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent all other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.

(d) If any portion of its Collateral in excess of $2,000,000 is in the possession or control of a warehouseman, bailee or agent at any time, such Grantor will, upon Administrative Agent’s reasonable request, (i) notify such warehouseman, bailee or agent of the relevant Transaction Liens, (ii) instruct such warehouseman, bailee or agent to hold all such Collateral for the Administrative Agent’s account subject to the Administrative Agent’s instructions (which shall permit such Collateral to be removed by such Grantor in the ordinary course of business until the Administrative Agent notifies such warehouseman, bailee or agent that a Default has occurred and is continuing), (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such warehouseman, bailee or agent to Authenticate a Record acknowledging that it holds possession of such Collateral for the Administrative Agent’s benefit and (iv) make such Authenticated Record available to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Such Grantor will not sell, lease, exchange, assign or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, any of its Collateral; provided that such Grantor may do any of the foregoing unless (i) doing so would violate a covenant in the Credit Agreement or (ii) a Default shall have occurred and be continuing and either (A) the Administrative Agent shall have notified such Grantor that its right to do so is terminated, suspended or otherwise limited or (B) the maturity of any or all of the Secured Obligations shall have been accelerated. Concurrently with any sale, lease or other disposition (except a sale or disposition to another Grantor or a lease) permitted by the foregoing proviso, the Transaction Liens on the assets sold or disposed of (but not in any Proceeds arising from such sale or disposition) will be released and cease immediately without any action by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party. The Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the relevant Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the fact that any asset so sold or disposed of is no longer subject to a Transaction Lien.

(f) Such Grantor will, promptly upon request, provide to the Administrative Agent all information and evidence concerning such Grantor’s Collateral that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time to enable it to enforce the provisions of the Security Documents.

(g) Each year, at the time of delivery of annual financial statements with respect to the preceding fiscal year pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(ii) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate executed by its chief legal officer and an Authorized Officer of the Borrower certifying that all Uniform Commercial Code financing statements (including fixture filings, as applicable) or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations, including all refilings or continuations thereof, have been filed of record in each governmental, municipal or other appropriate office in each jurisdiction identified pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 5 to the extent necessary to protect and perfect the security interests granted hereunder for a period of not less than 18 months after the date of such certificate (except as noted therein with respect to any continuation statements to be filed within such period).

SECTION 6 Recordable Intellectual Property. Each Grantor covenants as follows:

(a) On the Closing Date (in the case of an Original Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Grantor), such Grantor will sign and deliver to the Administrative Agent IP Security Agreements with respect to all Recordable Intellectual Property then owned by it or, for Licenses, to which it is a party. Within 30 days after each fiscal quarter thereafter, it will sign and deliver to the Administrative Agent an appropriate IP Security Agreement covering any Recordable Intellectual Property owned by it or, for Licenses, to which it is a party on the end of such fiscal quarter that is not covered by any previous IP Security Agreement so signed and delivered by it. In each case, it will promptly make all Intellectual Property Filings necessary to record the Transaction Liens on such Recordable Intellectual Property.

(b) Such Grantor will notify the Administrative Agent promptly if it knows that any application or registration relating to any Recordable Intellectual Property owned or licensed by it that is material to its business may become abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse, final and non-appealed determination (including any final and non-appealed adverse determination in any proceeding in the United States Copyright Office, the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any court) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of such Recordable Intellectual Property, its right to register or patent the same, or its right to keep and maintain the same. If any of such Grantor’s rights to any Recordable Intellectual Property are infringed, misappropriated or diluted in any material respect by a third party, such Grantor will notify the Administrative Agent within 30 days after it learns thereof and will, unless such Grantor shall reasonably determine that such action would be of negligible value, economic or otherwise, promptly xxx for infringement, misappropriation or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, and take such other actions as such Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Recordable Intellectual Property.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, if requested by Administrative Agent, each Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all requisite consents or approvals by the licensor of each Copyright License, Patent License or Trademark License that constitutes Recordable Intellectual Property under which such Grantor is a licensee to effect the assignment of all such Grantor’s right, title and interest thereunder to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, or its designee.

SECTION 7 Investment Property. Each Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

(a) Certificated Securities. On the Closing Date (in the case of an Original Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Grantor), such Grantor will deliver to the Administrative Agent as Collateral hereunder all certificates representing Pledged Certificated Securities then owned by such Grantor. Thereafter, whenever such Grantor acquires any other certificate representing a Pledged Certificated Security, such Grantor will promptly deliver such certificate to the Administrative Agent as Collateral hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this subsection are subject to the limitation set forth in Section 7(j).

(b) [Reserved].

(c) Security Entitlements. On the Closing Date (in the case of an Original Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Grantor), such Grantor will, with respect to each Security Entitlement then owned by it, enter into (and cause the relevant Securities Intermediary to enter into) a Securities Account Control Agreement in respect of such Security Entitlement and the Securities Account to which the underlying Financial Asset is credited and will deliver such Securities Account Control Agreement to the Administrative Agent (which shall enter into the same); provided, however, that obligations set forth in this Section shall not apply to Excluded Accounts, Financial Assets credited thereto or to related Security Entitlements. Thereafter, whenever such Grantor acquires any other Security Entitlement, such Grantor will, as promptly as practicable, cause the underlying Financial Asset to be credited to a Controlled Securities Account.

(d) Perfection as to Certificated Securities. When such Grantor delivers the certificate representing any Pledged Certificated Security owned by it to the Administrative Agent and complies with Section 7(h) in connection with such delivery, (i) the Transaction Lien on such Pledged Certificated Security will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (other than Permitted Liens), (ii) the Administrative Agent will have Control of such Pledged Certificated Security and (iii) assuming Administrative Agent does not have notice of any adverse claim to such Pledged Certificated Security, the Administrative Agent will be a protected purchaser (within the meaning of UCC Section 8-303) thereof.

(e) [Reserved].

(f) Perfection as to Security Entitlements. So long as the Financial Asset underlying any Security Entitlement owned by such Grantor is credited to a Controlled Securities Account, (i) the Transaction Lien on such Security Entitlement will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except Liens and rights of the relevant Securities Intermediary that are Permitted Liens), (ii) the Administrative Agent will have Control of such Security Entitlement and (iii) assuming Administrative Agent acquires such Security Entitlement without notice of any adverse claim thereto, no action based on an adverse claim to such Security Entitlement or such Financial Asset, whether framed in conversion, replevin, constructive trust, equitable lien or other theory, may be asserted against the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party.

(g) Agreement as to Applicable Jurisdiction. In respect of all Security Entitlements owned by such Grantor, and all Securities Accounts to which the related Financial Assets are credited, the Securities Intermediary’s jurisdiction (determined as provided in UCC Section 8-110(e)) will at all times be located in the United States.

(h) Delivery of Pledged Certificates. All certificates representing Pledged Certificated Securities, when delivered to the Administrative Agent, will be in suitable form for transfer by delivery, or accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in blank, with signatures appropriately guaranteed, all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(i) Communications. Each Grantor will promptly give to the Administrative Agent copies of any notices and other communications received by it with respect to (i) Pledged Securities registered in the name of such Grantor or its nominee and (ii) Pledged Security Entitlements as to which such Grantor is the Entitlement Holder.

(j) Certificated Securities Constituting Excluded Assets. For the avoidance of doubt, no Grantor will be obligated to comply with the provisions of this Section at any time with respect to any Certificated Security if and to the extent (but only to the extent) that such Certificated Security constitutes an Excluded Asset as defined in Section 3(a) and/or the comparable provisions of one or more Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplements.

(k) Compliance with Applicable Foreign Laws. If and so long as the Collateral includes (i) any Equity Interest in, or other Investment Property issued by, a legal entity organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States or (ii) any Security Entitlement in respect of a Financial Asset issued by such a foreign legal entity, the relevant Grantor will upon request of the Administrative Agent take all such action as may be required under the laws of such foreign jurisdiction to ensure that the Transaction Lien on such Collateral ranks prior to all Liens and rights of others therein other than Liens permitted pursuant to Section 7.03(b)(vii) of the Credit Agreement.

(l) Certification of Limited Liability Company and Partnership Interests. Any limited liability company and any partnership controlled by any Grantor shall either (a) not include in its operative documents any provision that any Equity Interests in such limited liability company or such partnership be a “security” as defined under Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code, or (b) certificate any Capital Stock in any such limited liability company or such partnership. To the extent an interest in any limited liability company or partnership controlled by any Grantor and pledged hereunder is certificated or becomes certificated, each such certificate shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 7(a) (subject to Section 7(j)) and such Grantor shall fulfill all other requirements under Section 7 applicable in respect thereof.

SECTION 8 Deposit Accounts. Each Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

(a) All cash owned by such Grantor will be deposited, upon or promptly after the receipt thereof, in one or more Controlled Deposit Accounts or in an Excluded Account.

(b) In respect of each Controlled Deposit Account, the Depositary Bank’s jurisdiction (determined as provided in UCC Section 9-304) will at all times be a jurisdiction in which Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code is in effect.

(c) So long as the Administrative Agent has Control of a Controlled Deposit Account, the Transaction Lien on such Controlled Deposit Account will be perfected, subject to no prior Liens or rights of others (except any Permitted Liens and the Depositary Bank’s right to deduct its normal operating charges and any uncollected funds previously credited thereto).

(d) [Reserved.]

SECTION 9 [Reserved]

SECTION 10 Commercial Tort Claims. Each Grantor represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

(a) In the case of an Original Grantor, Schedule 4 accurately describes, with the specificity required to satisfy Official Comment 5 to UCC Section 9-108, each Material Commercial Tort Claim with respect to which such Original Grantor is the claimant as of the Closing Date. In the case of any other Grantor, Schedule 4 to its first Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplement will accurately describe, with the specificity required to satisfy said Official Comment 5, each Material Commercial Tort Claim with respect to which such Grantor is the claimant as of the date on which it signs and delivers such Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplement.

(b) If any Grantor acquires a Material Commercial Tort Claim after the Closing Date (in the case of an Original Grantor) or the date on which it signs and delivers its first Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplement (in the case of any other Grantor), such Grantor will promptly sign and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplement granting a security interest in such Commercial Tort Claim (which shall be described therein with the specificity required to satisfy said Official Comment 5) to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

SECTION 11 Transfer Of Record Ownership. At any time when a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may (and to the extent that action by it is required, the relevant Grantor, if directed to do so by the Administrative Agent, will as promptly as practicable) cause each of the Pledged Securities (or any portion thereof specified in such direction) to be transferred of record into the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee. Each Grantor will take any and all actions reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to facilitate compliance with this Section 11. The Administrative Agent will promptly give to the relevant Grantor copies of any notices and other communications received by the Administrative Agent with respect to Pledged Securities registered in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee.

SECTION 12 Right to Vote Securities; Right to Insurance Proceeds. (a) Unless a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Grantor will have the right, from time to time, to vote and to give consents, ratifications and waivers with respect to any Pledged Security owned by it and the Financial Asset underlying any Pledged Security Entitlement owned by it, and the Administrative Agent will, upon receiving a written request from such Grantor, as promptly as practicable, deliver to such Grantor or as specified in such request such proxies, powers of attorney, consents, ratifications and waivers in respect of any such Pledged Security that is registered in the name of, or held by, the Administrative Agent or its nominee or any such Pledged Security Entitlement as to which the Administrative Agent or its nominee is the Entitlement Holder, in each case as shall be specified in such request and be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(a) If a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, after written notice from the Administrative Agent to such Grantor, the Administrative Agent will have the exclusive right to the extent permitted by law to vote, to give consents, ratifications and waivers and to take any other action with respect to the Pledged Investment Property, the other Pledged Equity Interests and the Financial Assets underlying the Pledged Security Entitlements, with the same force and effect as if the Administrative Agent were the absolute and sole owner thereof, and each Grantor will take all such action as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request from time to time to give effect to such right.

(b) Upon the receipt by Administrative Agent of a request from a Grantor that the Administrative Agent (i) turn over the proceeds of any policy of insurance of such Grantor on which the Administrative Agent is named as a loss payee for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or (ii) provide written instructions to the related insurer directing the insurer to pay the proceeds thereof directly to such Grantor or its designee, Administrative Agent shall promptly turn over such proceeds or provide such written instructions in accordance with the request of such Grantor, unless and to the extent (x) such proceeds are required to be applied to the repayment of the Obligations under the Credit Agreement at such time or (y) a Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

SECTION 13 Cash Distributions. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, each Grantor will have the right to receive and retain all Cash Distributions with respect to assets held in a Collateral Account In the absence of a Default, assets held in any Collateral Account may, until withdrawn, be invested and reinvested in such Permitted Investments as the relevant Grantor shall request from time to time; provided that if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may select such Permitted Investments. Cash Distributions with respect to any Pledged Equity Interest or Pledged Indebtedness that is not held in a Collateral Account (whether held in the name of a Grantor or in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee) shall be deposited, promptly upon receipt thereof, in a Controlled Deposit Account of the relevant Grantor.

SECTION 14 Remedies upon Default. (a) If a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may exercise (or cause its sub-agents to exercise) any or all of the remedies available to it (or to such sub-agents) under the Security Documents.

(a) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent may exercise on behalf of the Secured Parties all the rights of a secured party under the UCC (whether or not in effect in the jurisdiction where such rights are exercised) with respect to any Personal Property Collateral and, in addition, the Administrative Agent may, without being required to give any notice, except as herein provided or as may be required by mandatory provisions of law, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Administrative Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Administrative Agent may deem commercially reasonable, irrespective of the impact of any such sales on the market price of the Collateral. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any such sale and (with the consent of the Administrative Agent, which may be withheld in its commercially reasonable discretion) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply all of any part of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price of any Collateral payable at such sale. Upon any such sale of Collateral by the Administrative Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Administrative Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid to the Administrative Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. Each purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay or appraisal that it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. The Administrative Agent shall not be obliged to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Grantor hereby waives any claim against any Secured Party arising because the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price that might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Administrative Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree. The Administrative Agent may disclaim any warranty, as to title or as to any other matter, in connection with such sale or other disposition, and its doing so shall not be considered adversely to affect the commercial reasonableness of such sale or other disposition.

(b) If the Administrative Agent sells any of the Collateral upon credit, the Grantors will be credited only with payment actually made by the purchaser, received by the Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with Section 15 hereof. In the event the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, the Administrative Agent may resell the same, subject to the same rights and duties set forth herein.

(c) Notice of any such sale or other disposition shall be given to the relevant Grantor(s) as (and if) required by applicable law and/or Section 17.

(d) For the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement at such time as the Administrative Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable (until all of the Release Conditions have been satisfied), worldwide license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantors and subject to any prior rights granted by such Grantor to third parties) to use, improve, sell, copy, distribute, perform, make derivative works, publish, and exploit, with rights to license or sublicense, any of the Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs (solely to the extent permitted by the relevant licenses therefor) used for the compilation or printout thereof. The use of such license by the Administrative Agent may be exercised only upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Default; provided, however, that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Administrative Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon each Grantor notwithstanding any subsequent cure of a Default.

(e) The foregoing provisions of this Section shall not apply to Real Property Collateral other than Fixtures as to which such provisions shall apply to the extent such Fixtures are governed by Article 9 of the UCC.

SECTION 15 Application of Proceeds.

(a) If at any time any portion of any monies collected or received by the Administrative Agent would, but for the provisions of this Section 15(a), be payable pursuant to Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement in respect of a Contingent Secured Obligation, the Administrative Agent shall not apply any monies to pay such Contingent Secured Obligation but instead shall request the holder thereof, at least 10 days before each proposed distribution hereunder, to notify the Administrative Agent as to the maximum amount of such Contingent Secured Obligation if then ascertainable (e.g., in the case of a letter of credit, the maximum amount available for subsequent drawings thereunder). If the holder of such Contingent Secured Obligation does not notify the Administrative Agent of the maximum ascertainable amount thereof at least two Business Days before such distribution, such holder will not be entitled to share in such distribution. If such holder does so notify the Administrative Agent as to the maximum ascertainable amount thereof, the Administrative Agent will allocate to such holder a portion of the monies to be distributed in such distribution, calculated as if such Contingent Secured Obligation were outstanding in such maximum ascertainable amount. However, the Administrative Agent will not apply such portion of such monies to pay such Contingent Secured

Obligation, but instead will hold such monies or invest such monies in Permitted Investments. All such monies and Permitted Investments and all proceeds thereof will constitute Collateral hereunder, but will be subject to distribution in accordance with this Section 15(a) rather than Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement. The Administrative Agent will hold all such monies and Permitted Investments and the net proceeds thereof in trust until all or part of such Contingent Secured Obligation becomes a Non-Contingent Secured Obligation, whereupon the Administrative Agent at the request of the relevant Secured Party will apply the amount so held in trust to pay such Non-Contingent Secured Obligation; provided that, if the other Secured Obligations theretofore paid pursuant to the same clause of Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement were not paid in full, the Administrative Agent will apply the amount so held in trust to pay the same percentage of such Non-Contingent Secured Obligation as the percentage of such other Secured Obligations theretofore paid pursuant to the same clause of Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement. If (i) the holder of such Contingent Secured Obligation shall advise the Administrative Agent that no portion thereof remains in the category of a Contingent Secured Obligation and (ii) the Administrative Agent still holds any amount held in trust pursuant to this Section 15(a) in respect of such Contingent Secured Obligation (after paying all amounts payable pursuant to the preceding sentence with respect to any portions thereof that became Non-Contingent Secured Obligations), such remaining amount will be applied by the Administrative Agent in the order of priorities set forth in Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement.

(b) In making the payments and allocations required by this Section 15 and Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent may rely upon information supplied to it pursuant to Section 19(c). All distributions made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 15 and Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement shall be final (except in the event of manifest error) and the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by any Secured Party of any amount distributed to it.

SECTION 16 Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The Borrower will forthwith upon demand pay to the Administrative Agent:

(i) the amount of any taxes that the Administrative Agent may have been required to pay by reason of the Transaction Liens or to free any Collateral from any other Lien thereon;

(ii) the amount of any and all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of (A) one primary counsel for the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and (B) any local counsel to the Secured Parties retained by the Administrative Agent, limited to one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction, that the Administrative Agent may incur in connection with (x) the administration or enforcement of the Security Documents, including such expenses as are incurred to preserve the value of the Collateral or the validity, perfection, rank or value of any Transaction Lien, (y) the collection, sale or other disposition of any Collateral or (z) the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any of its rights or powers under the Security Documents;

(iii) the amount of any fees that the Borrower shall have agreed in writing to pay to the Administrative Agent and that shall have become due and payable in accordance with such written agreement; and

(iv) the amount required to defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses of any kind or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding, whether or not the Administrative Agent shall be designated a party thereto), whether or not arising in connection with any third party claim, imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any manner relating to or arising out of the Security Documents, except to the extent that such loss, liability or expense is caused by or results from the Administrative Agent’s willful misconduct or gross negligence with respect to the Security Documents, as determined by the final non-appealed judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (after giving effect to Sections 18 and 21).

(b) If any transfer tax, documentary stamp tax or other tax is payable in connection with any transfer or other transaction provided for in the Security Documents, the Borrower will pay such tax and provide any required tax stamps to the Administrative Agent or as otherwise required by law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Indemnitee (as defined in the Credit Agreement) as provided in Section 10.07(b) of the Credit Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor waives all rights for contribution and all other rights of recovery with respect to liabilities, losses, damages, costs and expenses arising under or related to Environmental, Health or Safety Requirements of Law that it might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee.

SECTION 17 Authority to Administer Collateral.

(a) Each Grantor irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent its true and lawful attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of such Grantor, any Secured Party or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Secured Parties, but at the Borrower’s expense, to the extent permitted by law to exercise, at any time and from time to time while a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all or any of the following powers with respect to all or any of such Grantor’s Collateral:

(i) to demand, xxx for, collect, receive and give acquittance for any and all monies due or to become due upon or by virtue thereof,

(ii) to settle, compromise, compound, prosecute or defend any action or proceeding with respect thereto,

(iii) to sell, lease, license, sublicense or otherwise dispose of the same or the proceeds or avails thereof, as fully and effectually as if the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof, and

(iv) to extend the time of payment of any or all thereof and to make any allowance or other adjustment with reference thereto;

provided that, except in the case of Personal Property Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Administrative Agent will give the relevant Grantor at least 15 days’ prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition thereof will be made. Any such notice shall (v) contain the information specified in UCC Section 9-613, (vi) be Authenticated and (vii) be sent to the parties required to be notified pursuant to UCC Section 9-611(c); provided that, if the Administrative Agent fails to comply with this sentence in any respect, its liability for such failure shall be limited to the liability (if any) imposed on it as a matter of law under the UCC.

(b) The foregoing provisions of this Section shall not apply to Real Property Collateral other than Fixtures as to which such provisions shall apply to the extent such Fixtures are governed by Article 9 of the UCC.

SECTION 18 Limitation on Duty in Respect of Collateral. Beyond the exercise of reasonable care in the custody and preservation thereof, the Administrative Agent will have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any sub-agent or bailee or any income therefrom or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Administrative Agent will be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession or control if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property, and will not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of any act or omission of any sub-agent or bailee selected by the Administrative Agent in good faith, except to the extent that such liability arises from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

SECTION 19 General Provisions Concerning the Administrative Agent.

(a) The provisions of Article 11 of the Credit Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and shall be binding upon all Grantors and all Secured Parties, in connection with this Agreement and the other Security Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Security Documents that the Administrative Agent is required in writing to exercise by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement), and (iii) except as

expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for any failure to disclose, any information relating to any Grantor that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the existence, genuineness or value of any Collateral or for the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of any Transaction Lien, whether impaired by operation of law or by reason of any action or omission to act on its part under the Security Documents. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Secured Party.

(b) Sub-Agents and Related Parties. The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise any of its rights and powers through one or more sub-agents appointed by it. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of its duties and exercise any of its rights and powers through its Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of Section 18 and this Section 19 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent.

(c) Information as to Secured Obligations and Actions by Secured Parties. For all purposes of the Security Documents, including determining the amounts of the Secured Obligations and whether a Secured Obligation is a Contingent Secured Obligation or not, or whether any action has been taken under any Secured Agreement, the Administrative Agent will be entitled to rely on information from (i) its own records for information as to the Credit Parties, their Secured Obligations and actions taken by them, (ii) any Secured Party for information as to its Secured Obligations and actions taken by it, to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not obtained such information from its own records, and (iii) the Borrower, to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not obtained information from the foregoing sources.

(d) Refusal to Act. The Administrative Agent may refuse to act on any notice, consent, direction or instruction from any Secured Parties or any agent, trustee or similar representative thereof that, in the Administrative Agent’s opinion, (i) is contrary to law or the provisions of any Security Document, (ii) may expose the Administrative Agent to liability (unless the Administrative Agent shall have been indemnified, to its reasonable satisfaction, for such liability by the Secured Parties that gave such notice, consent, direction or instruction) or (iii) is unduly prejudicial to Secured Parties not joining in such notice, consent, direction or instruction.

SECTION 20 Termination of Transaction Liens; Release of Collateral. (a) The Transaction Liens granted by each Guarantor shall terminate when its Secured Guarantee is released pursuant to Section 2(c).

(b) The Transaction Liens granted by the Borrower shall terminate when all the Release Conditions are satisfied.

(c) At any time before the Transaction Liens granted by the Borrower terminate, the Administrative Agent may, at the written request of the Borrower, (i) release any Collateral (but not all or substantially all the Collateral) with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, (ii) release all or substantially all the Collateral with the prior written consent of all Lenders (except as expressly provided in Section 10.14 of the Credit Agreement (including any such release by the Administrative Agent in connection with any sale or other disposition of the Collateral upon the exercise of remedies under the Collateral Documents)).

(d) Upon any termination of a Transaction Lien or release of Collateral, the Administrative Agent will, at the expense of the relevant Grantor, execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence the termination of such Transaction Lien or the release of such Collateral, as the case may be and shall perform such other actions reasonably requested by such Grantor to effect such release, including delivery of certificates, securities and instruments. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 20 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 21 Additional Guarantors and Grantors. Any Subsidiary may become a party hereto by signing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Supplement, whereupon such Subsidiary shall become a “Guarantor” and a “Grantor” as defined herein.

SECTION 22 [Reserved].

SECTION 23 Notices. Each notice, request or other communication given to any party hereunder shall be given in accordance with Section 14.01 of the Credit Agreement, and in the case of any such notice, request or other communication to a Grantor other than the Borrower, shall be given to it in care of the Borrower.

SECTION 24 No Implied Waivers; Remedies Not Exclusive. No failure by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising and no course of dealing with respect to, any right or remedy under any Security Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party of any right or remedy under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies specified in the Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

SECTION 25 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement is for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties.

No such waiver, amendment or modification shall (i) be binding upon any Grantor, except with its written consent, or (ii) affect the rights of a Secured Party (other than a Lender) hereunder more adversely than it affects the comparable rights of the Lenders hereunder, without the consent of such Secured Party.

Pursuant to Section 5.01(b)(ix) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower hereby certifies that, after giving effect to the Transactions, on the date hereof:

(a) The fair value of the property of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is greater than the total amount of the liabilities, including contingent liabilities, of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. In computing the amount of any contingent liabilities on the date hereof, such liabilities shall have been computed at the amount that, in light of all of the facts and circumstances existing on the date hereof, represents the amount that can be reasonably expected to become an actual or matured liability.

(b) The present fair saleable value of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is not less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, on their debts as they become absolute and matured.

(c) The Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, do not intend to incur debts or liabilities beyond their ability to pay such debts and liabilities as they mature in the ordinary course of business.

(d) The Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are not engaged in business or a transaction for which their property would constitute an unreasonably small capital.

(e) The Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are able to pay their debts and liabilities, contingent obligations and other commitments as they mature in the ordinary course of business. In computing the amount of any contingent liabilities on the date hereof, such liabilities shall have been computed at the amount that, in light of all of the facts and circumstances existing on the date hereof, represents the amount that can be reasonably expected to become an actual or matured liability.
