Each Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Revolving Credit Advances to any Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Revolving Credit Borrowing, (i) the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings at such time shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Facility at such time, (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Advances of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Advances shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, and (iii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Revolving Credit Advances denominated in Alternative Currencies plus the L/C Obligations in respect of Letters

of Credit issued in Alternative Currencies shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit. Within the limits of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.01(a), prepay under Section 2.10, and reborrow under this Section 2.01(a). Revolving Credit Advances may be Base Rate Advances or Eurocurrency Rate Advances, as further provided herein.

SECTION 2.02 Making the Advances. (a) Each Revolving Credit Borrowing, each conversion of Revolving Credit Advances from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be made upon the applicable Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Agent, which may be given by (x) telephone or (y) a Committed Advance Notice; provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed immediately by delivery to the Agent of a Committed Advance Notice. Each such Committed Advance Notice must be received by the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (i) three Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars or of any conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars to Base Rate Advances, (ii) four Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Alternative Currencies, and (iii) on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Advances. Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000. Except as provided in Sections 2.02(c), 2.03(c) and 2.04(c), each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Advances shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000. Each Committed Advance Notice (whether telephonic or written) shall specify (i) whether the applicable Borrower is requesting a Revolving Credit Borrowing, a conversion of Revolving Credit Advances from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Advances, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the principal amount of Advances to be borrowed, converted or continued, (iv) the Type of Advances to be borrowed or to which existing Revolving Credit Advances are to be converted, (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto and (vi) the currency of the Revolving Credit Advances to be borrowed. If a Borrower fails to specify a currency in a Committed Advance Notice requesting a Revolving Credit Borrowing, then the Revolving Credit Advances so requested shall be made in Dollars.

Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Advances shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Advances. If a Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Advances in any such Committed Advance Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.

(b) Following receipt of a Committed Advance Notice, the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount (and currency) of its Commitment Percentage of the applicable Revolving Credit Advances, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the applicable Borrower, the Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Advances or continuation of Revolving Credit Advances denominated in a currency other than Dollars, in each case as described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of a Revolving Credit Borrowing, each appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Advance available to the Agent in Same Day Funds at the Agent’s Office for the applicable currency not later than 2:00 p.m., in the case of any Advance denominated in Dollars, and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Agent in the case of any Revolving Credit Advance in an Alternative Currency, in each case on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Advance Notice.

(c) During the existence of an Event of Default no Revolving Credit Advances may be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Advances (whether in Dollars or any Alternative Currency) without the consent of the Majority Lenders, and the Majority Lenders may demand that any or all of the then outstanding Revolving Credit Advances that are Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in an Alternative Currency be prepaid, or redenominated into Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto.

(d) The Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurocurrency Rate Advances upon determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Advances are outstanding, the Agent shall notify the applicable Borrower(s) and the Lenders of any change in Bank of America’s prime rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly following the public announcement of such change.

(e) After giving effect to all Revolving Credit Borrowings, all conversions of Revolving Credit Advances from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Revolving Credit Advances as the same Type, there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all of the portion of its Advances in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Company, the Agent, and such Lender.

Immediately upon the request of any Swing Line Lender, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Advance in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Advance.

(b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Company’s or a Designated Swing Line Borrower’s irrevocable notice to a Swing Line Lender and the Agent, which may be given by (x) telephone or (y) by a Swing Line Advance Notice; provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Agent of a Swing Line Advance Notice. Each such Swing Line Advance Notice must be received by the applicable Swing Line Lender and the Agent not later than, in the case of Swing Line Advances denominated in Dollars, 2:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and in the case of Swing Line Advances denominated in any Alternative Currency, 2:00 p.m. on four Business Days prior to the requested borrowing date (or such shorter notice period as the applicable Swing Line

Lender may require), and shall specify (i) the amount and currency to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $500,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Promptly after receipt by the applicable Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Advance Notice, such Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Agent has also received such Swing Line Advance Notice and, if not, such Swing Line Lender will notify the Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless a Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 3:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing such Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Advance as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.03(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article V is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Swing Line Lender may, not later than 4:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Advance Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Advance available to the Company or the applicable Designated Swing Line Borrower at its office by crediting the account of the Company or such Designated Swing Line Borrower on the books of such Swing Line Lender in immediately available funds.

(i) Each Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole discretion may request, on behalf of the Company or, if the applicable Designated Swing Line Borrower is a Subsidiary Borrower, on behalf of such Subsidiary Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes such Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Lender make a Base Rate Revolving Credit Advance in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the amount of the Dollar Equivalent of the Swing Line Advances then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Committed Advance Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Advances, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 5.02. Each Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Company or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower with a copy of the applicable Committed Advance Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Agent. Each Lender shall make an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the amount specified in such Committed Advance Notice available to the Agent in immediately available funds (and the Agent may apply Cash Collateral available with respect to the applicable Swing Line Advance) for the account of such Swing Line Lender at the Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Committed Advance Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.03(c)(ii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Revolving Credit Advance to the Company or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower in such amount. The Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Advance cannot be refinanced by such a Committed Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.03(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Revolving Credit Advances submitted by a Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by such Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Advance and each Lender’s payment to the Agent for the account of such Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Agent for the account of the applicable Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(i), such Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Credit Advance included in the relevant Committed Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Advance, as the case may be. A certificate of a Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Advances pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against any Swing Line Lender, the Company, any Designated Swing Line Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Company or the applicable Designated Swing Line Borrower to repay Swing Line Advances, together with interest as provided herein.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Advance, if the applicable Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Advance, such Swing Line

Lender will distribute to such Lender its Commitment Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by such Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If any payment received by a Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Advance is required to be returned by such Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.09 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to such Swing Line Lender its Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of the Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Overnight Rate. The Agent will make such demand upon the request of such Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. Each Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Company or the applicable Designated Swing Line Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Advances. Until each Lender funds its Base Rate Revolving Credit Advance or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.03 to refinance such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any Swing Line Advance, interest in respect of such Commitment Percentage shall be solely for the account of the applicable Swing Line Lender.

(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Company and each Designated Swing Line Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Advances directly to the applicable Swing Line Lender.

(g) Designated Swing Line Borrowers. Any Subsidiary of the Company not a Subsidiary Borrower may become a “Designated Swing Line Borrower” hereunder by delivering to the Agent and the applicable Swing Line Lender appropriate authorizations in respect of it entering into this Agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, and such Swing Line Lender wherein such Subsidiary agrees to be bound by all terms and provisions of this Agreement relating to Swing Line Advances to be made to such Designated Swing Line Borrower and delivers a written consent of the Company assenting to the inclusion of such Subsidiary as a “Designated Swing Line Borrower” hereunder.

such Issuing Bank in its sole discretion and the Agent that is a lawful currency readily available and freely transferable and convertible into Dollars (which additional currency, solely for purposes of the applicable Letter of Credit, the drawings thereunder and the reimbursement thereof, shall be deemed to be an “Alternative Currency”) for the account of the Company or its Subsidiaries, and to amend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsection (b) below, and (2) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of the Company or its Subsidiaries and any drawings thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, (x) the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Facility, (y) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Advances of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Advances, plus such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit.

(iii) No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing the Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any 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 such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to the Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which such Issuing Bank in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it;

(F) the Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder.

(iv) The applicable Issuing Bank shall not amend any Letter of Credit if such Issuing Bank would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof.

(v) The applicable Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

(vi) The applicable Issuing Bank shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and such Issuing Bank shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in Article IX included such Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to such Issuing Bank.

(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.

(i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Company or any LC Subsidiary delivered to an Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Agent (x) not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be, of any Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars, and (y) not later than 11:00 a.m. at least five Business Days prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be, of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency; or in each case such later date and time as such Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion, prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount and currency thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit; and (H) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank (1) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (2) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (3) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (4) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may reasonably require. Additionally, the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary shall furnish to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as such Issuing Bank or the Agent may reasonably require.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the applicable Issuing Bank will confirm with the Agent (by telephone or in writing)

that the Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Company or an LC Subsidiary and, if not, such Issuing Bank will provide the Agent with a copy thereof. Unless such Issuing Bank has received written notice from any Lender, the Agent or any Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article V shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Company (or the applicable Subsidiary) or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from such Issuing Bank a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

(iii) If the Company or an LC Subsidiary so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the such Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Bank, neither the Company nor the applicable LC Subsidiary shall be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) such Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section 2.04(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Agent that the Majority Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Agent, any Lender, the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 5.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing such Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.

(iv) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Bank will also deliver to the Company

or the applicable LC Subsidiary and the Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary and the Agent thereof. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary shall reimburse such Issuing Bank in such Alternative Currency, unless (A) the applicable Issuing Bank (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars, or (B) in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary shall have notified such Issuing Bank promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary will reimburse such Issuing Bank in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Issuing Bank shall notify the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. If an Issuing Bank shall make any payment under a Letter of Credit, the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary shall reimburse such Issuing Bank through the Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and in the applicable currency not later than 2:00 p.m. (or the Applicable Time in the case of reimbursement in an Alternative Currency) on the date the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary receives notice of such payment by the applicable Issuing Bank (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary shall reimburse such Issuing Bank through the Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing. If the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary fails to so reimburse such Issuing Bank by such time, the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage thereof. In such event, the Company or, if the applicable LC Subsidiary is a Subsidiary Borrower, such Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Advances to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Advances, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (other than the delivery of a Committed Advance Notice). Any notice given by such Issuing Bank or the Agent pursuant to this Section 2.04(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) make funds available (and the Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, in Dollars, at the Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.04(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Revolving Credit Advance to the Company or the applicable Subsidiary Borrower in such amount. The Agent shall remit the funds so received to such Issuing Bank in Dollars.

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing of Base Rate Advances because the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Company or, if the applicable LC Subsidiary is a Subsidiary Borrower, such Subsidiary Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable Issuing Bank an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on written demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Lender’s payment to the Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.04.

(iv) Until each Lender funds its Revolving Credit Advance or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of such Issuing Bank.

(v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances or L/C Advances to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.04(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against such Issuing Bank, the Company, any LC Subsidiary, any other Subsidiary or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (other than delivery by the Company or a Subsidiary Borrower of a Committed Advance Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Company and the applicable LC Subsidiary to reimburse such Issuing Bank for the amount of any payment made by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi) If any Lender fails to make available to the Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, such Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Bank at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such Issuing Bank in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Credit Advance included in the relevant Revolving Credit Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of such Issuing Bank submitted to any Lender (through the Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after an Issuing Bank has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.04(c), if the Agent receives for the account of such Issuing Bank any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Company, an LC Subsidiary or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Agent), the Agent will distribute to such Lender its Commitment Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Issuing Bank in its discretion), each Lender shall pay to the Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Commitment Percentage thereof on demand of the Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Company and each LC Subsidiary to reimburse an Issuing Bank for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Company, any LC Subsidiary or any other Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), an Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv) any payment by an Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by an Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;

(v) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the Company, any LC Subsidiary or any other Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally; or

(vi) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Company, any LC Subsidiary or any other Subsidiary.

The Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the instructions of the Company or such LC Subsidiary or other irregularity, the Company or such LC Subsidiary will immediately notify the applicable Issuing Bank. The Company and each LC Subsidiary shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the applicable Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f) Role of Issuing Banks. Each Lender, the Company and each LC Subsidiary agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft,

certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Issuing Banks, the Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of an Issuing Bank shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The Company and each LC Subsidiary hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit issued at its request; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Company’s or LC Subsidiary’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Issuing Banks, the Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of an Issuing Bank shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 2.04(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company or an LC Subsidiary may have a claim against an Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank may be liable to the Company or an LC Subsidiary, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Company or such LC Subsidiary which the Company or such LC Subsidiary proves were caused by such Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such Issuing Bank’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, an Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and such Issuing Bank shall not be responsible 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.

(g) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Company or the applicable LC Subsidiary when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance shall apply to each Trade Letter of Credit.

(h) Letter of Credit Fees. The Company or, in the case of a Letter of Credit issued at the request of any LC Subsidiary, such LC Subsidiary shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Commitment Percentage a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) (i) for each Trade Letter of Credit equal to 0.60% per annum times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, and (ii) for each Standby Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Standby Letter of Credit Fee

times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided, however, any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.04 shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Requirement of Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Commitment Percentages allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.14(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to such Issuing Bank for its own account. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.07. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) due and payable in arrears within 30 days after the end of each January, April, July and October, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on written demand and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. If there is any change in the Applicable Standby Letter of Credit Fee during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Standby Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Standby Letter of Credit Fee separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Standby Letter of Credit Fee was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Majority Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

(i) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to Issuing Banks. The Company or, in the case of any Letter of Credit issued at the request of an LC Subsidiary, such LC Subsidiary shall pay directly to the applicable Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee (i) with respect to each Trade Letter of Credit, at the rate specified in the applicable Fee Letter, computed on the amount of such Letter of Credit, and payable upon the issuance thereof, (ii) with respect to any amendment of a Trade Letter of Credit increasing the amount of such Letter of Credit, at a rate separately agreed between the Company and such Issuing Bank, computed on the amount of such increase, and payable upon the effectiveness of such amendment, and (iii) with respect to each Standby Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum specified in the applicable Fee Letter, computed on the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the tenth Business Day after the end of each January, April, July and October in respect of the most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and thereafter on written demand. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.07. In addition, the Company or, in the case of any Letter of Credit issued at the request of an LC Subsidiary, such LC Subsidiary shall pay directly to each Issuing Bank for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such Issuing Bank relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.

(j) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.

(k) Monthly Report. Each Issuing Bank, on the last Business Day of each month until the Termination Date, shall calculate the L/C Obligations on such date in respect of Letters of Credit issued by it (converting any amounts of the L/C Obligations which are denominated in an Alternative Currency to Dollars for purposes of such calculation) and shall promptly send notice of such L/C Obligations to the Agent, the Company and each Lender, and the Agent shall then determine the excess amount, if any, referred to in the first sentence of Section 2.10(b)(i) or (ii) and shall promptly inform the Company of such amount and the Company shall promptly upon receipt thereof make the payments provided for in Section 2.10(b)(i) or (ii) above if applicable.

(l) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary other than an LC Subsidiary, the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Company hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries (other than LC Subsidiaries) inures to the benefit of the Company, and that the Company’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

SECTION 2.05 Fees. (a) Facility Fee. The Company agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee, from the Effective Date in the case of each initial Lender and from the effective date specified in the Assumption Agreement or in the Assignment and Acceptance, respectively, pursuant to which it became Lender in the case of each other Lender until the Termination Date (and thereafter so long as any Revolving Credit Advances, Swing Line Advances or L/C Obligations remain outstanding and to the extent such Revolving Credit Advances, Swing Line Advances or L/C Obligations are not Cash Collateralized in full), at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Facility Fee in effect from time to time, on the amount of such Lender’s Commitment (computed without giving effect to any usage of the Commitment of such Lender), payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each January, April, July and October and on the Termination Date.

(a) Other Fees. The Company hereby agrees to pay the fees and charges referred to in that certain letter agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among the Company, the Issuing Banks and the Agent.

SECTION 2.06 Reduction and Increase of the Revolving Credit Commitments; Additional Issuing Banks. (a) The Company may, upon notice to the Agent, terminate the unused portions of the Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Swing Line Submit, or the unused Revolving Credit Commitments, or from time to time permanently reduce the unused portions of the Letter of Credit Sublimit, the Swing Line Submit, or the unused Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. four Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (iii) the Company shall not terminate or reduce the unused portions of the Letter

of Credit Sublimit, the Swing Line Submit, or the unused Revolving Credit Commitments if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Aggregate Commitments and (iv) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the unused Revolving Credit Commitments, the Alternative Currency Sublimit, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments, such Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. The Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination or reduction of Commitments. A notice provided by the Company under this clause (a) may state that such notice is conditioned upon the availability of other financing, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Company (by notice to the Agent prior to the specified date of such termination or reduction) if such condition is not satisfied. The amount of any such Revolving Credit Commitment reduction shall not be applied to the Alternative Currency Sublimit, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit unless otherwise specified by the Company. Any reduction of any Commitments shall be applied to the Commitment of each applicable Lender according to its Commitment Percentage. All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of any Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

(b) Not more frequently than twice in any calendar year, the Company shall have the right prior to the Termination Date to (i) increase the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of one or more Lenders (subject to the consent of such Lenders in their sole and absolute discretion), (ii) add one or more Assuming Lenders as Lenders (subject to the consent of the Agent and the Issuing Banks in their sole and absolute discretion) and (iii) increase the Issuing Commitment of an Issuing Bank (subject to the consent of such Issuing Bank in its sole and absolute discretion) (each such increase under clause (i), (ii) or (iii) being a “Commitment Increase”), on and subject to the following terms:

(i) The aggregate amount of the increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments shall not exceed $250,000,000 after the date hereof;

(ii) The amount of each Commitment Increase by any Lender or any Assuming Lender shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

(iii) No proposed Commitment Increase shall occur unless each of the following requirements in respect thereof shall have been satisfied:

(A) The Agent shall have received from the Company an irrevocable written notice (a “Commitment Increase Notice”), dated not earlier than 60 days before the proposed Commitment Increase Effective Date (as defined below) therefor and not later than 30 days (or such shorter period agreed to by the Agent) before such proposed Commitment Increase Effective Date, that (1) specifies (w) (if applicable) the proposed Issuing Commitment increase of each Issuing Bank and/or of the Lenders which are to become Issuing Banks and the amount of each Issuing Bank’s Issuing Commitment after giving effect thereto, (x) the aggregate amount of the proposed Commitment Increase, (y) the Lenders whose Revolving Credit Commitments are to be increased by the proposed Commitment Increase

and/or the Assuming Lenders which are to become Lenders and the amount by which each such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment is to be so increased and/or the amount of each such Assuming Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and (z) the date (the “Commitment Increase Effective Date”) on which the proposed Commitment Increase shall become effective, and (2) has been signed by each Lender whose Revolving Credit Commitment is to be increased, evidencing the consent of such Lender to the proposed Commitment Increase and Issuing Bank whose Issuing Commitment is to be increased evidencing the consent of such Issuing Bank thereto and/or by each such Assuming Lender; and

(B) On and as of the Commitment Increase Effective Date of the proposed Commitment Increase (1) the following statements shall be true (and the giving of the applicable Commitment Increase Notice shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Company that on such Commitment Increase Effective Date such statements are true):

(x) The representations and warranties contained in Section 6.01 are correct on and as of such Commitment Increase Effective Date before and after giving effect to the proposed Commitment Increase, as though made on and as of such date; and

(y) No event has occurred and is continuing, or would result from such Commitment Increase, which constitutes an Event of Default or Default; and

(z) The Agent shall have received such other approvals, opinions or documents as the Agent may reasonably request.

(iv) Promptly following its receipt of a Commitment Increase Notice in proper form, the Agent shall deliver copies thereof to each Lender and Issuing Bank. If, and only if, all of the terms, conditions and requirements specified in paragraphs (i) through (iii) are satisfied in respect of any proposed Commitment Increase on and as of the proposed Commitment Increase Effective Date thereof and in the case of each such Assuming Lender, an Assumption Agreement, duly executed by such Assuming Lender, the Agent and the Company, has been received by the Agent, then, as of such Commitment Increase Effective Date and from and after such date, (1) the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders consenting to such Commitment Increase shall be increased by the respective amounts specified in the Commitment Increase Notice pertaining thereto, (2) references herein to the amounts of the Lenders’ respective Revolving Credit Commitments shall refer to respective amounts giving effect to such Commitment Increase, and (3) each such Assuming Lender shall be a Lender and an Issuing Bank, if applicable, for all purposes hereof, and the Agent shall record all relevant information with respect to such Assuming Lender and its Revolving Credit Commitment and, if applicable, with respect to the increased Issuing Commitment of an Issuing Bank in the Register;

(v) It is understood that no Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to any request made by the Company for a Commitment Increase;

(vi) As part of such Commitment Increase, such Lender or Assuming Lender shall purchase assignments in the Revolving Credit Advances and Revolving Credit Commitments of the other Lenders so that after giving effect thereto, the percentage held by each Lender of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments is the same as prior to such Commitment Increase and such Lender or Assuming Lender shall have acquired a ratable participation in all Swing Line Advances as contemplated by Section 2.03(c)). In connection therewith, on each Commitment Increase Effective Date, (A) each Lender whose Revolving Credit Commitment has been increased (each such Lender being an “Increasing Lender”) shall, before 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Commitment Increase Effective Date, make available for the account of its Lending Office to the Agent at the address specified in Section 10.02, in same day funds, an amount equal to the excess of (1) such Increasing Lender’s ratable portion of the Revolving Credit Advances then outstanding (calculated based on its Revolving Credit Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders (including each such Assuming Lender) outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase) over (2) the aggregate principal amount of then outstanding Revolving Credit Advances made by such Increasing Lender and (B) each such Assuming Lender shall before 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Commitment Increase Effective Date, make available for the account of its Lending Office to the Agent at the address specified in Section 10.02 in same day funds, an amount equal to such Assuming Lender’s ratable portion of the Revolving Credit Advances then outstanding (calculated based on its Revolving Credit Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders (including each such Assuming Lender) outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase); and

(vii) After the Agent’s receipt of such funds from each such Increasing Lender and such Assuming Lender, the Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds to the other Lenders for the account of their respective Lending Offices in an amount to each other Lender such that the aggregate amount of the outstanding Revolving Credit Advances owing to each Lender (including each such Assuming Lender) after giving effect to such distribution equals such Lender’s ratable portion of the Revolving Credit Advances then outstanding (calculated based on its Revolving Credit Commitment as a percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders outstanding after giving effect to the relevant Commitment Increase).

(c) The Company may at any time, upon at least five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent and the Lenders or as part of a proposed Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section 2.06, designate (i) as an Issuing Bank any Lender that has agreed in writing to act as an Issuing Bank and (ii) the Issuing Commitment of such Lender. Thereupon, any Lender so designated as an Issuing Bank shall thenceforth issue

Letters of Credit on the terms and subject to the conditions herein, and the Agent shall record all relevant information with respect to such Lender as such Issuing Bank in the Register.

SECTION 2.07 Repayment of Advances. (a) Each Borrower shall repay in full the principal amount of each Revolving Credit Advance made to it owing to each Lender, together with accrued interest and fees thereon, on the Termination Date.

(b) Swing Line Advances. The Company or the applicable Designated Swing Line Borrower shall repay the respective Swing Line Lender and each Lender that has made a Swing Line Advance for the account of the Company or such Designated Swing Line Borrower, as applicable, on the earlier of (i) the maturity date for each Swing Line Advance (which maturity shall be no later than thirty (30) days after the date of such Advance) and (ii) the Termination Date, the principal amount of each such Swing Line Advance made to the Company or such Designated Swing Line Borrower, as applicable, by such Swing Line Lender and each such Lender and outstanding on such date.

SECTION 2.08 Interest on Advances. Each Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance made to it by each Lender from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

(a) Base Rate Advances. If such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y) the respective Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable quarterly on the last day of each April, July, October, and January.

(b) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. If such Advance is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of (x) the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus (y) the respective Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day which occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period.

(c) Swing Line Advances. If such Advance is a Swing Line Advance, a rate per annum as agreed upon by the respective Swing Line Lender and the Company or the applicable Designated Swing Line Borrower.

(d) Default Interest. (i) If any amount of principal of any Advance is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirement of Law.

(i) If any amount (other than principal of any Advance) payable by any Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Majority Lenders, such amount shall

thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirement of Law.

(ii) Upon the request of the Majority Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, the Company or the applicable Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirement of Law.

(iii) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon written demand.

(e) The applicable Borrower shall pay to each Lender, so long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Advance of such Lender, from the date of such Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) the Eurocurrency Rate for the Interest Period for such Advance from (ii) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurocurrency Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such Interest Period, payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Advance. Such additional interest shall be determined by such Lender and notified to the Company and the applicable Borrower through the Agent.

SECTION 2.09 Interest Rate Determination. (a) The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Company, the applicable Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Agent for purposes of Section 2.08(a) or (b).

(b) (i) If the Majority Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Advance or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) deposits (whether in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Advance, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Advance (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency), or (c) the Eurocurrency Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Advance does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Eurocurrency Rate Advance, the Agent will promptly so notify the Company, each applicable Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended until the Agent (upon the instruction of the Majority Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, any Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Advances in the affected currency or currencies or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such

request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Advances in the amount specified therein.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or the Company or Majority Lenders notify the Agent (with, in the case of the Majority Lenders, a copy to the Company) that the Company or Majority Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:

(A) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or

(B) the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”), or

(C) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR,

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Agent or receipt by the Agent of such notice , as applicable, the Agent and the Company may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein) (any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes (as defined below) and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day after the Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrowers unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders have delivered to the Agent written notice that such Majority Lenders do not accept such amendment.

If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (A) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Agent will promptly so notify the Company and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Rate Advances or Interest Periods), and (y) the Eurocurrency Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Advances (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Rate Advances or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Committed Borrowing

of Base Rate Advances (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein.

Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than zero for purposes of this Agreement.

As used above:

“LIBOR Screen Rate” means the LIBOR quote on the applicable screen page the Agent designates to determine LIBOR (or such other commercially available source providing such quotations as may be designated by the Agent from time to time).

“LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate, any conforming changes to the definition of Base Rate, Interest Period, timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest and other administrative matters as may be appropriate, in the discretion of the Agent, to reflect the adoption of such LIBOR Successor Rate and to permit the administration thereof by the Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Agent determines that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or that no market practice for the administration of such LIBOR Successor Rate exists, in such other manner of administration as the Agent determines in consultation with the Company).

(c) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $10,000,000, such Advances shall, if they are Advances of a Type other than Base Rate Advances, automatically Convert on the last day of the Interest Period with respect to such Advance into Base Rate Advances, and on and after such date the right of any Borrower to Convert such Advances into Advances of a Type other than Base Rate Advances shall terminate; provided, however, that if and so long as each such Advance shall be of the same Type and have the same Interest Period as Advances comprising another Borrowing or other Borrowings, and the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all such Advances shall equal or exceed $5,000,000, the Borrowers shall have the right to continue all such Advances as, or to Convert all such Advances into, Advances of such Type having such Interest Period.

(d) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligations of the Lenders to make, or to convert Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances will be suspended.

(e) All computations of interest for Base Rate Advances (including Base Rate Advances determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual

days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year) (or, in each case of Advances denominated in Alternative Currencies where market practice differs, in accordance with market practice). Interest shall accrue on each Advance for the day on which the Advance is made, and shall not accrue on an Advance, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Advance or such portion is paid, provided that any Advance that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 4.01(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(f) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Company or for any other reason, the Company or the Lenders determine that (i) the Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Company as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrowers shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Lender Parties, promptly on written demand by the Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the applicable Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Agent, any Lender Party), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Agent, any Lender Party under Section 2.04(c)(iii), 2.04(h) or 2.08 or under Article VIII. The Borrowers’ obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

SECTION 2.10 Prepayments of Advances.

(a) Optional. (i) Any Borrower may, upon notice to the Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay Advances made to it in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be in a form acceptable to the Agent and received by the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (x) three Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars, (y) four Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Alternative Currencies, and (z) on the date of prepayment of Base Rate Advances; (B) any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; (C) any prepayment of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Alternative Currencies shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (D) any prepayment of Base Rate Advances shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, in each case, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Advances to be prepaid and, if Eurocurrency Rate Advances are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Advances. The Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the relevant Facility). If such notice

is given by any Borrower, such Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein; provided that such notice of prepayment may state that such prepayment is conditioned upon the availability of other financing, in which case such notice may be revoked by the applicable Borrower (by notice to the Agent prior to the specified date of such prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied (it being understood that any revocation by a Borrower of a notice of prepayment shall entitle the Lenders to any amounts as set forth in Section 10.04(b)). Any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be accompanied by all accrued interest thereon, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 10.04(b). Each such prepayment shall be paid to the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages.

(ii) Any Borrower may, upon notice to the applicable Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Advances made to it in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by such Swing Line Lender and the Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the prepayment, and (B) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $500,000 or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by a Borrower, such Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.

(b) Mandatory. (i) If the Agent notifies the Company at any time that the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings at such time exceed an amount equal to 105% of the Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Company shall prepay, or cause to be repaid, Revolving Credit Advances, Swing Line Advances, Unreimbursed Amounts and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce the Total Revolving Credit Outstanding as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect (it being understood that, for purposes of this clause (b) only, the amount of any Cash Collateral so provided (and to the extent not released in accordance with the last sentence of this clause (b)) will be deemed to reduce the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings); provided, however, that, the Company shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) unless after the prepayment in full of the Revolving Credit Advances, Swing Line Advances and Unreimbursed Amounts the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect. Upon notice by the Company to the Agent, the Agent shall release any Cash Collateral to the Company to the extent that, after such a release, the Total Revolving Credit Outstandings at such time shall not exceed an amount equal to 100% of the Revolving Credit Commitment then in effect.

(ii) If the Agent notifies the Company at any time that the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Advances and Letters of Credit denominated in Alternative Currencies at such time exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit then in effect, then, within five Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Company shall prepay, or cause to be prepaid, Revolving Credit Advances, Unreimbursed Amounts and/or Cash

Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess; provided, however, that, the Company shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) unless after the prepayment in full of the Revolving Credit Advances and Unreimbursed Amounts the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Advances and Letters of Credit denominated in Alternative Currencies at such time exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit then in effect. Upon notice by the Company to the Agent, the Agent shall release any Cash Collateral to the Company to the extent that, after such a release, the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Advances and Letters of Credit denominated in Alternative Currencies at such time exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit then in effect.

(iii) Prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility by any Borrower made pursuant to this Section 2.10(b), first, shall be applied ratably to the Unreimbursed Amounts and the Swing Line Advances owing by such Borrower, second, shall be applied ratably to the outstanding Revolving Credit Advances owing by such Borrower, and, third, shall be used to Cash Collateralize the remaining L/C Obligations of such Borrower. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit that has been Cash Collateralized, the funds held as Cash Collateral shall be applied (without any further action by or notice to or from the Company or any other Loan Party) to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, as applicable

SECTION 2.11 Increased Costs. (a) If, at any time after the date of this Agreement, any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any court or administrative or governmental authority charged with the administration thereof shall

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender Party (except any reserve requirement included in the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage);

(ii) subject any Lender Party to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or any Eurodollar Rate Advance made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender Party in respect thereof (except for (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes); or

(iii) impose on any Lender Party or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Advances made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Advance (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Advance), or to increase the cost to such Lender Party of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender Party hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, the Company shall from time

to time, upon written demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such written demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost setting forth the basis for the calculation of such increased costs, submitted to the Company and the Agent by such Lender Party, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) If, at any time after the date of this Agreement, any Lender Party determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender Party or any corporation controlling such Lender Party and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender Party’s commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type or the issuance of (or commitment to purchase of participations in) the Letters of Credit (or similar contingent obligations), then, upon written demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such written demand to the Agent), the Company shall immediately pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender Party, from time to time as specified by such Lender Party, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of such Lender Party’s commitment hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Company and the Agent by such Lender Party and setting forth the basis for the calculation of such amount shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change in Law”, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

(d) Without affecting its rights under Sections 2.11(a) or 2.10(b) or any other provision of this Agreement, each Lender Party agrees that if there is any increase in any cost to or reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender Party with respect to which the Company would be obligated to compensate such Lender Party pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) or 2.11(b), such Lender Party shall use reasonable efforts to select an alternative issuing office or Lending Office which would not result in any such increase in any cost to or reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender Party; provided, however, that no Lender Party shall be obligated to select an alternative issuing office or Lending Office if such Lender Party determines that (i) as a result of such selection such Lender Party would be in violation of any applicable law, regulation, treaty, or guideline, or would incur additional costs or expenses or (ii) such selection would be inadvisable for regulatory reasons or inconsistent with the interests of such Lender Party.

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

(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Company hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Company contained in this Section 2.11 shall survive the payment in full (after the Termination Date) of all Obligations.

SECTION 2.12 Illegality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful or impossible, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to perform any of its obligations hereunder or make, maintain or fund or change interest with respect to any Credit Extension or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars or any Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Company through the Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Credit Extension or to make or continue Eurocurrency Rate Advances in the affected currency or currencies or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances in Dollars, to convert Base Rate Committed Advances to Eurocurrency Rate Advances, shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Advances the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Advances of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Agent and the Company that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrowers shall, within five (5) Business Days after written demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), prepay or, if applicable and such Advances are denominated in Dollars, convert all Eurocurrency Rate Advances of such Lender to Base Rate Advances (the interest rate on which Base Rate Advances of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Advances to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Advances and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, the Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component thereof until the Agent is advised in writing by

such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

(b) Without affecting its rights under Section 2.11(a) or under any other provision of this Agreement, each Lender agrees that if it becomes unlawful or impossible for such Lender to make, maintain or fund its Eurocurrency Rate Advances as contemplated by this Agreement, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to select an alternative Lending Office from which such Lender may maintain and give effect to its obligations under this Agreement with respect to making, funding and maintaining such Eurocurrency Rate Advances; provided, however, that no Lender shall be obligated to select an alternative Lending Office if such Lender determines that (i) as a result of such selection such Lender would be in violation of any applicable law, regulation, or treaty, or would incur additional costs or expenses or (ii) such selection would be inadvisable for regulatory reasons or inconsistent with the interests of such Lender.

SECTION 2.13 Cash Collateral. (a) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Agent or any Issuing Bank if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank for any reason remains outstanding, the Company shall immediately Cash Collateralize, or cause to be Cash Collateralized, the then Outstanding Amount of all such L/C Obligations. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender and the aggregate unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the non-defaulting Lenders after taking into account the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Advances is insufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure, immediately upon the request of the Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Swing Line Lender, the Company shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.14(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America (which Cash Collateral may, at the direction and sole risk of the Company, be invested in Cash Equivalents that are pledged to the Agent). The Company and each Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lender Parties (including the Swing Line Lenders), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.13(c). If at any time the Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Company or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Agent, pay or provide or, in the case of the Company, cause to be paid or provided, to the Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.13 or Sections 2.03, 2.04, 2.10, 2.17 or 8.01 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Line Advances shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, Swing Line Advances, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 10.07(b)(vi))) or (ii) the Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default under Section 8.01(a) or (e) or an Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.13 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.01), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the applicable Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

SECTION 2.14 Defaulting Lenders. (a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Requirement of Law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Majority Lenders.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Agent or requested by any Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Advance or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Company may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent and the Company, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released

in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Advances under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lender Parties as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender Party against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Loan Party as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Loan Party against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Advances or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.14(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender (x) shall be entitled to receive any facility fee pursuant to Section 2.05(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to extent allocable to the sum of (1) the Outstanding Amount of the Advances funded by it and (2) its Commitment Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.03, Section 2.04, Section 2.13, or Section 2.14(a)(ii), as applicable (and the Company, the applicable LC Subsidiary or the applicable Designated Swing Line Borrower, as the case may be, shall (A) be required to pay to each of the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lenders, as applicable, the amount of such fee allocable to its Fronting Exposure arising from that Defaulting Lender and (B) not be required to pay the remaining amount of such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in Section 2.04(h).

(iv) Reallocation of Commitment Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Advances pursuant to Sections 2.03 and 2.04, the “Commitment Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Advances of that Lender. Subject to Section 10.22, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender

having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Line Advances. If the reallocation described in clause (a)(iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under applicable Law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Advances in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.13.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Company, the Agent, the Swing Line Lenders and the Issuing Banks agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Credit Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitment Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.14(a)(iv)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of any Loan Party while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

ARTICLE III

COMPANY GUARANTY

SECTION 3.01 Generally. The Swing Line Lenders and Issuing Banks may, from time to time, make Credit Extensions for the account of each Subsidiary Borrower, LC Subsidiary and Designated Swing Line Borrower as provided herein, provided, that, the repayment, reimbursement and other obligations of each such Subsidiary Borrower, LC Subsidiary or Designated Swing Line Borrower in respect of such Credit Extensions are and remain unconditionally guaranteed by the Company pursuant to this Article III.

SECTION 3.02 Guaranty. The Company hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of each other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement with respect to the Credit Extensions issued for the account of any other Loan Party, including any extensions, modifications, substitutions, amendments and renewals thereof, whether for repayment or reimbursement obligations, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise (such obligations being the “Subsidiary Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses in accordance with Section 10.04) incurred by the Swing Line Lenders or the Lenders in enforcing any rights hereunder with

respect to the Subsidiary Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company’s liability shall extend to all amounts which constitute part of the Subsidiary Obligations and would be owed by any other Loan Party to the Swing Line Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders hereunder, or under the Credit Extensions issued for the account of a Loan Party, but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving such Loan Party.

SECTION 3.03 Guaranty Absolute. The Company guarantees that the Subsidiary Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with their respective terms, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Swing Line Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders with respect thereto. The obligations of the Company hereunder are independent of the Subsidiary Obligations and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Company to enforce the guaranty contained in this Article III, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any other Loan Party or whether any other Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of the Company under the guaranty contained in this Article III shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any of the Subsidiary Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto against any Subsidiary Borrower or any other Person;

(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Subsidiary Obligations or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure with respect to Credit Extensions issued for the account of a Loan Party including, without limitation, any increase in the Subsidiary Obligations resulting from the Issuance of Credit Extensions beyond the aggregate limitation specified in Section 2.01 to any and all Loan Parties or otherwise;

(iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Subsidiary Obligations;

(iv) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Subsidiary Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Subsidiary Obligations or any other assets of a Loan Party;

(v) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of a Loan Party or any Loan Party’s lack of corporate power or authority; or

(vi) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a third party guarantor.

The guaranty provided in this Article III shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Subsidiary Obligations is rescinded or

must otherwise be returned by any Swing Line Lender, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, respectively, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of a Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

SECTION 3.04 Waivers. The Company hereby waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) any requirement that any Swing Line Lender or Issuing Bank secure or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against any other Loan Party or any other Person or any collateral;

(ii) any defense arising by reason of any claim or defense based upon an election of remedies by any Swing Line Lender or Issuing Bank (including, without limitation, an election to nonjudicially foreclose on any real or personal property collateral) which in any manner impairs, reduces, releases or otherwise adversely affects its subrogation, reimbursement or contribution rights or other rights to proceed against any other Loan Party or any other Person or any collateral;

(iii) any defense arising by reason of the failure of any other Loan Party to properly execute any letter of credit application and agreement or otherwise comply with applicable legal formalities;

(iv) any defense or benefits that may be derived from California Civil Code §§ 2808, 2809, 2810, 2819, 2845 or 2850, or California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 580a, 580d or 726, or comparable provisions of the laws of any other jurisdiction and all other suretyship defenses it would otherwise have under the laws of California or any other jurisdiction;

(v) any duty on the part of any Swing Line Lender or Issuing Bank to disclose to the Company any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operation or condition of any other Loan Party or its assets now known or hereafter known by any Swing Line Lender or Issuing Bank;

(vi) all benefits of any statute of limitations affecting the Company’s liability under or the enforcement of the guaranty provided in this Article III or any of the Subsidiary Obligations or any collateral;

(vii) all setoffs and counterclaims;

(viii) promptness, diligence, presentment, demand for performance and protest;

(ix) notice of nonperformance, default, acceleration, protest or dishonor;

(x) except for any notice otherwise required by applicable laws that may not be effectively waived by the Company, notice of sale or other disposition of any collateral; and

(xi) notice of acceptance of the guaranty provided in this Article III and of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Subsidiary Obligations.

ARTICLE IV

PAYMENTS, TAXES, EXTENSIONS, ETC.

SECTION 4.01 Payments Generally; Agent’s Clawback. (a) General. All payments to be made by any Loan Party shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Advances denominated in an Alternative Currency, all payments by any Loan Party hereunder shall be made to the Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by any Loan Party hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Advances denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Agent’s Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Agent on the dates specified herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. If, for any reason, any Loan Party is prohibited by any Requirement of Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such Loan Party shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. The Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Commitment Percentage in respect of the relevant Facility (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Agent (i) after 2:00 p.m., in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the Agent in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by any Loan Party shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(b) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Agent. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Loan Party a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Loan Party severally agree to pay to the Agent

forthwith on written demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Loan Party to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by a Loan Party, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Advances. If the applicable Loan Party and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Agent shall promptly remit to such Loan Party the amount of such interest paid by such Loan Party for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance included in such Borrowing. Any payment by a Loan Party shall be without prejudice to any claim such Loan Party may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Agent.

(c) Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Agent. Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the applicable Loan Party prior to the time at which any payment is due to the Agent for the account of the Lender Parties hereunder that such Loan Party will not make such payment, the Agent may assume that such Loan Party has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Appropriate Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the applicable Loan Party has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Appropriate Lenders or Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender Party, in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at the Overnight Rate.

A notice of the Agent to any Lender or the applicable Loan Party with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(d) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Agent funds for any Advance to be made by such Lender to any Loan Party as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to such Loan Party by the Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article V are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(e) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Advances, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.04(d) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Advance, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 10.04(d) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Advance, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 10.04(d).

(f) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Advance in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Advance in any particular place or manner. If any Foreign Subsidiary shall request any Borrowing hereunder, any Lender may, with notice to the Agent and the Company, fulfill its Commitment by causing an Affiliate of such Lender to act as the Lender in respect of such Foreign Subsidiary (and such Lender shall, to the extent of Advances made to and participations in Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Foreign Subsidiary, be deemed for all purposes hereof to have pro tanto assigned such Advances and participations to such Affiliate in compliance with the provisions of Section 10.07).

SECTION 4.02 Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

(i) For purposes of this Section 4.02, the terms “Lender” and “Foreign Lender” include any Issuing Bank.

(ii) 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 Laws. If any applicable Laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Agent or a Loan Party, then the Agent or such Loan Party shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding.

(iii) If any Loan Party or the Agent shall be required (as determined in the good faith discretion of such Loan Party or the Agent) by any applicable Laws to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) such Loan Party or the Agent, as required by such Laws, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required, (B) such Loan Party or the Agent, to the extent required by such Laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such Laws, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.02) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Company. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Company shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Tax Indemnification. (i) Each of the Loan Parties shall, and does hereby agree to, severally indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 Business Days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified

Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable by such Loan Party under this Section 4.02) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, regardless of whether the parties hereto agree that 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 Company by a Lender Party (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. For the avoidance of doubt, no Loan Party that is a Foreign Subsidiary shall be required to make any payments pursuant to this Section 4.02 in respect of any obligation of the Company or any Domestic Subsidiary under any Loan Document.

(i) Each Lender Party shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 Business Days after demand therefor, (x) the Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender Party (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (y) the Agent and the Loan Parties, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.07(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (z) the Agent and the Loan Parties, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender Party, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent or a Loan Party 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 Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender Party hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Agent under this clause (ii).

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 4.02, the Company shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.

(i) In addition to the requirement set forth in subsection (iii) below, 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 Company and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent as will permit such payments

to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition to the requirements set forth in the preceding sentence and subsection (iii) below, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent as will enable the Company or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company to minimize the amount payable by any Loan Party pursuant to this Section 4.02. 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 Section 4.02(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (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 United States Person shall deliver to the Company and the 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 Company or the Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from United States Federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company and the 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 Company or the 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-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, United States 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-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, United States Federal withholding tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(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-E (or W-8BEN, as applicable), a United States Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 or Exhibit H-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 United States Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-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 Company and the 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 Company or the Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Company or the 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 Company and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the 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 Company or the Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Agent to comply with their obligations under

FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(iii) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 4.02 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Company and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f) Treatment of Certain Tax Benefits. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender Party, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender Party, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender Party. If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of, credit against, release or remission for, or repayment of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Loan Party or with respect to which any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.02 (any such refund, credit, release, remission or repayment, a “Tax Benefit”), it shall pay to the applicable Loan Party an amount equal to such Tax Benefit (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by a Loan Party under this Section 4.02 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such Tax Benefit), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such Tax Benefit), provided that the applicable Loan Party, upon the request of the Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such Tax Benefit to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to the applicable Loan Party pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such Tax Benefit 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 subsection shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person.

(g) Each Lender Party agrees with the Company that it will take all reasonable actions by all usual means to (i) secure and maintain the benefit of all benefits available to it under the provisions of any applicable double tax treaty concluded by the United States of America to which it may be entitled by reason of the location of such Lender Party’s lending office or place of incorporation or its status as an enterprise of any jurisdiction having any such applicable double tax treaty, if such benefit would reduce the amount payable by any Loan Party in accordance with this Section 4.02 and (ii) otherwise cooperate with the Company to minimize the amount payable by any Loan

Party pursuant to this Section 4.02; provided, however, that no Lender Party shall be obliged to disclose to any Loan Party any information regarding its tax affairs or tax computations or to reorder its tax affairs or tax planning pursuant thereto.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 4.02 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender Party, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

SECTION 4.03 Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Revolving Credit Advances made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Advances held by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Advances or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Credit Advances and subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Advances of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Credit Advances and other amounts owing them, provided that:

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

(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (y) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.13, or (z) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Revolving Credit Advances or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Advances to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).

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

SECTION 4.04 Evidence of Debt/Borrowings. (a) Each Lender Party shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of any Loan Party to such Lender Party resulting from each Advance owing to such

Lender Party from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender Party from time to time hereunder.

(b) The Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 10.07(c) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender Party, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Loan Party to each Lender Party hereunder, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Agent from any Loan Party hereunder and each Lender Party’s share thereof.

(d) Upon the request of any Lender to the Company made through the Agent, the Company shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to such Lender (through the Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Advances to the Loan Parties in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to a Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, currency and maturity of its Advances and payments with respect thereto.

The Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Company or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01 and 8.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

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

Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Majority Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above, provided that in no event shall any such successor Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) If the Person serving as Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Majority Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Company and such Person remove such Person as Agent and, in consultation with the Company, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or

such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Majority Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuing Bank directly, until such time, if any, as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Agent (other than as provided in Section 4.02(g) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section) . The fees payable by the Company to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while the retiring or removed Agent was acting as Agent and (ii) after such resignation or removal for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, including in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Agent.

(d) Any resignation by Bank of America as Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender.

If Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Advances made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Advances or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Advances pursuant to Section 2.03(c). Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender, (b) the retiring Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit issued by Bank of America, if any, outstanding at the time of

such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

SECTION 9.07 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 9.09 Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Advance or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Agent shall have made any demand on any Loan Party) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise

100

Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Company or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee's obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Company or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 10.04(c) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses arising from any non-Tax claim.

(d) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Company for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section to be paid by it to the Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), any Issuing Bank or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent (or any such sub-agent), such Issuing Bank or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Issuing Bank in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Issuing Bank in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (d) are several, and the failure of any Lender to fund its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to fund its obligations hereunder.

(e) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each Loan Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(f) The Company hereby acknowledges that the funding method by each Lender of its Advances hereunder shall be in the sole discretion of such Lender.

The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Company and the Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

SECTION 10.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Company, each LC Subsidiary and each Subsidiary Borrower to be a party hereto on the date hereof, each Issuing Bank to be a party hereto on the date hereof, and the Agent and when the Agent shall have been notified by each Lender that such Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, each LC Subsidiary, each Subsidiary Borrower, each Issuing Bank, the Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Company, each LC Subsidiary and each Subsidiary Borrower shall not have the right to assign its respective rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.

such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance 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 2.11, 4.02 and 10.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. Upon request, the applicable Loan Party (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 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 10.07(d).

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

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Company or the Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender or the Company or any of the Company’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Advances (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Advances) 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 Company, the Agent, the Lender Parties 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, waiver or other modification described in clause (i) of the proviso to Section 10.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11 and 4.02 subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 4.02(e) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.02(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(b); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 10.07(h) as if it were a Lender, and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.11 or 4.02 with respect to any Participation than its participating Lender would have been entitled to

105

receive, except to the extent that such entitlement to receive greater payment results from a change in law after the participant acquired the participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.05 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.03 as though it were a Lender.

Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, 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 Advances or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation 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. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.11 or 4.02 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Company’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.02 unless the Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Company, to comply with Section 4.02(c) as though it were a Lender.

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

(g) Resignation as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time a Lender that is, or has an Affiliate that is, an Issuing Bank or a Swing Line Lender (a “Fronting Bank”) assigns all of its Revolving Credit Commitment and Revolving Credit Advances pursuant to Section 10.07(b), such Fronting Bank may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to the Company and the Lenders, resign as Issuing Bank and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to the Company, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, the Company shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Company to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of the applicable Fronting Bank as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If a Fronting Bank resigns as Issuing Bank, it shall retain all the

106

rights, powers, privileges and duties of an Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Bank and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Advances or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.04(c)). If a Fronting Bank resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of a Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Advances made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Advances or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Advances pursuant to Section 2.03(c). Upon the appointment and acceptance of such appointment of a successor Issuing Bank and/or Swing Line Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Fronting Bank to effectively assume the obligations of such Fronting Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

(h) If any Lender requests any payment from any Loan Party under Section 2.08(d), 2.11 or 4.02, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then, subject to Section 10.07(a) and provided no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.07), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i) the Company shall have paid to the Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.07(b);

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal of its Advances and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 10.04(b)) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.11 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 4.02, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Requirements of Law.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

107

SECTION 10.08 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Company is made to the Agent or any Lender Party, or the Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Agent or such Lender Party in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and each Issuing Bank severally agrees to pay to the Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the Lender Parties under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.09 Severability of Provisions. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.10 Independence of Provisions. All agreements and covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect such that if a particular action or condition is prohibited by the terms of any such agreement or covenant, the fact that such action or condition would be permitted within the limitations of another agreement or covenant shall not be construed as allowing such action to be taken or condition to exist.

SECTION 10.11 Confidentiality. Each Lender, each Issuing Bank and the Agent (each a “Recipient”) agrees that it will not disclose to any third party any Confidential Information provided to it by the Company; except that Confidential Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (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 required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrowers and their obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the

108

Company or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (h) with the consent of the Company or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company. In addition, the Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the Commitments).

SECTION 10.12 Designated Subsidiaries. (a) Designation. (i) The Company may at any time, and from time to time, upon not less than 15 Business Days’ notice, notify the Agent that the Company intends to designate a Subsidiary as a “LC Subsidiary” or a “Subsidiary Borrower” for purposes of this Agreement. On or after the date that is 15 Business Days after such notice, upon delivery to the Agent and each Lender of each of the documents listed in clause (ii) below, such Subsidiary shall thereupon become a “LC Subsidiary” or a “Subsidiary Borrower” (as specified in such notice) for purposes of this Agreement and, as such, shall have all of the rights and obligations of a Loan Party hereunder. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Company’s notice of such pending designation by the Company and the identity of the respective Subsidiary. Following the giving of any notice pursuant to this Section 10.12(a), if the designation of such Subsidiary as a Loan Party obligates the Agent or any Lender to comply with “know your customer” or similar identification procedures (including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Regulation) in circumstances where the necessary information is not already available to it, the Company shall, promptly upon the request of the Agent or any Lender, supply such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Agent or any Lender in order for the Agent or such Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with the results of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations.

(ii) No Subsidiary designated as a Loan Party in accordance with clause (a) above shall have any rights under this Agreement prior to the date that the Agent has received each of the following, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent:

(A) The Designation Agreement duly executed by the Company and the respective Subsidiary and substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto,

(B) Certified copies of the resolutions of the Board of Directors of such Subsidiary (with a certified English translation if the original thereof is not in English) approving transactions of the type contemplated by this Agreement and the Notes of such Subsidiary, and of all documents evidencing other necessary corporate action and governmental approvals, if any, with respect to this Agreement and such Notes.

(C) A certificate of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of such Subsidiary certifying the names and true signatures of the officers of such

109

Subsidiary authorized to sign this Agreement and the Notes of such Subsidiary and the other documents to be delivered hereunder.

(D) A certificate signed by a duly authorized officer of the Company or such Subsidiary, dated as of the date of such initial Advance, certifying that such Subsidiary shall have obtained all governmental and third party authorizations, consents, approvals (including exchange control approvals) and licenses required under applicable laws and regulations necessary for such Subsidiary to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Notes and to perform its obligations thereunder.

(E) If such Subsidiary is a Domestic Subsidiary, a favorable opinion of counsel to such Subsidiary, dated the date of such initial Advance, substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto.

(F) Each such Subsidiary that qualifies as a “legal entity customer” under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation shall deliver, to each Lender that so requests, a Beneficial Ownership Certification in relation to such Subsidiary.

(G) Such other approvals or documents as any Lender, through the Agent, may reasonably request.

(iii) As soon as practicable after receiving notice from the Company or the Agent of the Company’s intent to designate a Subsidiary as a Loan Party, and in any event no later than five Business Days after the delivery of such notice, for a Foreign Subsidiary, any Lender that may not legally lend to, establish credit for the account of and/or do any business whatsoever with such Foreign Subsidiary directly or through an Affiliate of such Lender as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph (a “Protesting Lender”) shall so notify the Company and the Agent in writing. With respect to each Protesting Lender, the Company shall, effective on or before the date that such Foreign Subsidiary shall have the right to borrow hereunder, either (A) notify the Agent and such Protesting Lender that the Commitments of such Protesting Lender shall be terminated; provided that such Protesting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances and/or Letter of Credit reimbursement obligations, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company or the relevant Foreign Subsidiary (in the case of all other amounts), or (B) cancel its request to designate such Subsidiary as a Loan Party hereunder.

(b) Termination. Upon the payment and performance in full of all of the indebtedness, liabilities and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes of any Subsidiary then, so long as at the time no Committed Advance Notice in respect of such Subsidiary is outstanding, such Subsidiary’s status as a “LC Subsidiary” or a “Subsidiary Borrower”, as applicable, shall terminate upon notice to such effect from the Agent to the Lenders (which notice the Agent shall give promptly upon its receipt of a request therefor from the Company). Thereafter, the Lenders shall be under no further obligation to make any Advance hereunder to such Subsidiary.

110

To the extent that any Loan Party has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, each Loan Party hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Nothing in this Section 10.16 shall affect the right of any of the parties hereto to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of
