Each Swingline Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower Representative shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

If no election as to the Type of Revolving Borrowing is specified, then the requested Revolving Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, then the applicable Borrower(s) shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.04. Protective Advances. (a) Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but with absolutely no obligation), to make Revolving Loans to the Borrowers, on behalf of all Lenders, which the Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof; (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations; or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses (including costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 9.03) and other sums payable under the Loan Documents (any of such Revolving Loans are herein referred to as “Protective Advances”); provided that the aggregate amount of Protective Advances outstanding at any time shall not at any time exceed 5% of the aggregate Revolving Commitments; and provided, further, that the aggregate amount of outstanding Protective Advances plus the Aggregate Revolving Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments. Protective Advances may be made even if the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have not been satisfied. The Protective Advances shall be secured by the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) in and to the Collateral of the U.S. Loan Parties (in the case of Protective Advances made to the Company) or the Collateral of all the Loan Parties (in the case of Protective Advances made to the Bermuda Borrowers) and shall constitute U.S. Secured Obligations (in the case of Protective Advances made to the Company) or Bermuda Secured Obligations (in the case of Protective Advances made to the Bermuda Borrowers). All Protective Advances shall be Base Rate Borrowings. The Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Protective Advances may be revoked at any time by the Required Lenders. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. At any time that there is sufficient Availability and the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have been satisfied, the Administrative Agent may request the Revolving Lenders to make a Revolving Loan to repay a Protective Advance. At any other time the Administrative Agent may require the Lenders to fund their risk participations described in Section 2.04(b).

ATL 22026536v6

(a) Upon the making of a Protective Advance by the Administrative Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default), each Revolving Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Administrative Agent without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Protective Advance in proportion to its Applicable Percentage. From and after the date, if any, on which any Revolving Lender is required to fund its participation in any Protective Advance purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Revolving Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Protective Advance.

SECTION 2.05. Swingline Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrowers, from time to time during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $75,000,000 or (ii) the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Exposure exceeding (x) the aggregate Revolving Commitments, or (y) during a Borrowing Base Period, the lesser of the aggregate Revolving Commitments and the Borrowing Base, in each case both before and immediately after giving effect to such Swingline Loan; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Borrower Representative. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrowers by means of a credit to the Funding Account(s) (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Bank).

(b) Upon the making of a Swingline Loan (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default and regardless of whether any Revolving Lender is then required to fund its Applicable Percentage of the Swingline Exposure pursuant to Section 2.05(d)), each Revolving Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Swingline Loan in proportion to its Applicable Percentage of the Revolving Commitment. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Swingline Loans is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Swingline Loan or the occurrence

ATL 22026536v6

and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitment, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. The Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent may, at any time, require the Revolving Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any Revolving Lender is required to fund its participation in any Swingline Loan purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Loan.

(c) Promptly following (i) notice by the Administrative Agent to any Revolving Lender of the occurrence of any Event of Default or (ii) any request therefor (which request the Swingline Lender may make from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion) by the Swingline Lender to the Administrative Agent (which request the Administrative Agent shall promptly forward to each Revolving Lender), each Revolving Lender shall make a Revolving Loan in a principal amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Swingline Exposure then outstanding. Each Revolving Lender receiving any such notice or request shall wire transfer, at or before 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day that it receives such notice or request immediately available funds in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Swingline Exposure specified in such notice or request to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated for such purpose by notice to the Revolving Lenders, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay over such amounts to the Swingline Lender for application to the outstanding Swingline Loans; provided that if any such notice or request is received by a Revolving Lender after 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, such amounts shall not be required to be so wire transferred until 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the next following Business Day.

SECTION 2.06. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower Representative may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account or for the account of another Borrower, pursuant to a written Issuance Request, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Issuance Request, form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrowers to, or entered into by the Borrowers with, an Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

(a) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower Representative shall deliver via electronic mail or facsimile to the Issuing Bank that it may request issue the applicable Letter of Credit and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a written Issuance Request. Each such written Issuance Request shall specify the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend,

ATL 22026536v6

renew or extend such Letter of Credit. It is understood that the reinstatement of all or a portion of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms thereof following a drawing thereunder shall not constitute an amendment, renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. No Issuing Bank shall agree to issue, amend, renew or extend a Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall exceed $125,000,000, (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Exposure shall exceed (x) the aggregate Revolving Commitments, or (y) during a Borrowing Base Period, the lesser of the aggregate Revolving Commitments and the Borrowing Base, or (iii) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 have not been satisfied.

(b) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Loans; provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall not in any event extend beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Loans) under customary “evergreen” provisions.

(c) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of any Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, the applicable Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the applicable Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrowers on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrowers for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(d) Reimbursement. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall, subject to the terms hereof, reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day that the Borrower Representative receives notice of such LC Disbursement, if such notice is received

ATL 22026536v6

prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Business Day (or, if the Borrower Representative receives notice of such LC Disbursement after 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the next following Business Day); provided that the Borrower Representative may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with a Base Rate Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Base Rate Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan (or applicable portion thereof). If the Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof, and the Bermuda Borrowers shall have no obligation to reimburse any Person with respect to any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit that does not constitute a Bermuda Obligation. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrowers, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and the applicable Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of Base Rate Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no case shall the Bermuda Borrowers be obligated to reimburse, nor shall any reimbursement made hereunder by the Bermuda Borrowers be applied to reimburse, an LC Disbursement which does not constitute a Bermuda Obligation.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The Borrowers’ obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein; (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iii) payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder.

ATL 22026536v6

Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the applicable Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law) suffered by any Borrower that are caused by the applicable Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise the standard of care hereunder to be applicable when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment), such Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised such standard of care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(f) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative by electronic mail or facsimile of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(g) Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall accrue interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrowers reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to Base Rate Revolving Loans; provided that if the Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.14(e) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving

ATL 22026536v6

Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment.

(h) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.13(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(i) Cash Collateralization. Subject to Section 2.19(b), if any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower Representative receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, (i) the Company shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lender Parties (the “U.S. LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 105% of the LC Exposure as of such date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and (ii) without duplication under clause (i), the Bermuda Borrowers shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lender Parties (the “Non-U.S. LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 105% of the LC Exposure with respect to the Bermuda Borrowers as of such date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that in each case the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in paragraph (h) or (i) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, in the case of deposits in the U.S. LC Collateral Account, and the Bermuda Secured Obligations, in the case of deposits in the Non-U.S. LC Collateral Account. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over each such account and (x) the Company hereby grants the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lender Parties) a security interest in the U.S. LC Collateral Account to secure the Secured Obligations and (y) the Bermuda Borrowers hereby grant the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lender Parties) a security interest in the Non-U.S. LC Collateral Account to secure the Bermuda Secured Obligations. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be in the form of Permitted Investments made at

ATL 22026536v6

the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent (in accordance with its usual and customary practices for investments of this type) and at the Borrowers’ risk and reasonable expense, such deposits shall not accrue interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in each such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Company or the Bermuda Borrowers, as applicable, for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders), be applied, in the case of deposits in the U.S. LC Collateral Account, to satisfy other Secured Obligations or, in the case of deposits in the Non-U.S. LC Collateral Account, to satisfy other Bermuda Secured Obligations. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers within three Business Days after all such Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(j) Existing Letters of Credit. On the Effective Date, each of such “Letters of Credit” issued and outstanding under the Original Credit Agreement and listed on Schedule 2.06 shall automatically, and without any action on the part of any Person, be deemed to be a Letter of Credit that has been issued hereunder as of the Effective Date for all purposes hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the foregoing (i) each such letter of credit shall be included in the calculation of LC Exposure, (ii) all liabilities of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties with respect to such letters of credit shall constitute Obligations and (iii) each Lender shall have reimbursement obligations with respect to such letters of credit as provided in this Section 2.06.

(k) Illegality under Letters of Credit. If, at any time, it becomes unlawful for any Issuing Bank to comply with any of its obligations under any Letter of Credit (including, but not limited to, as a result of any sanctions imposed by the United Nations, the European Union, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and/or the United States), the obligations of such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit shall be suspended (and all corresponding rights shall cease to accrue) until such time as it may again become lawful for such Issuing Bank to comply its obligations under such Letter of Credit, and such Issuing Bank shall not be liable for any losses that the Loan Parties may incur as a result.

SECTION 2.07. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage; provided that Term Loans shall be made as provided in Sections 2.01(b) and 2.02(b) and Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower Representative promptly by crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the Funding Account(s); provided that Base Rate Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of (i) an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06

ATL 22026536v6

(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank and (ii) a Protective Advance shall be retained by the Administrative Agent.

(a) Unless the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, or (ii) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.08. Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower Representative may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower Representative may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings or Protective Advances, which may not be converted or continued.

(a) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election in an Interest Election Request signed by the Borrower Representative and delivered by electronic mail or facsimile by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrowers were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable.

(b) Each Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Borrower and the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to paragraphs (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

ATL 22026536v6

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election and the last day of such Interest Period, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(c) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(d) If the Borrower Representative fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower Representative, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the Revolving Commitment shall terminate on the Maturity Date and (ii) the Term Loan Commitments shall terminate on the making of the Term Loan on the Effective Date.

(a) The Borrower Representative may at any time terminate the Revolving Commitments in their entirety upon (i) the payment in full in cash of all outstanding Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon and on any Letters of Credit; (ii) the cancellation and return of all outstanding Letters of Credit (or alternatively, with respect to such Letters of Credit, the deposit by the applicable Borrower in the applicable LC Collateral Accounts of cash (or, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and each applicable Issuing Bank, a back-up standby letter of credit) equal to 105% of the LC Exposure as of such date in accordance with Section 2.06(j); (iii) the payment in full in cash of the accrued and unpaid fees; and (iv) the payment in full in cash of all accrued and unpaid reimbursable expenses and other Obligations together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

ATL 22026536v6

(b) The Borrower Representative may from time to time reduce the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $10,000,000 and not less than $25,000,000 (or, in either case, if less, the aggregate remaining applicable Commitment) and (ii) the Borrowers shall not reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the Aggregate Revolving Exposure would exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments.

(c) The Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower Representative pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower Representative may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower Representative (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments.

SECTION 2.10. Increase in Commitments.

(a) After the Effective Date, the Borrowers shall have the right to increase the aggregate Revolving Commitments by obtaining additional Revolving Commitments (“Incremental Revolving Commitments”) and the right to increase the aggregate Term Loan Commitments by obtaining additional Term Loan Commitments (“Incremental Term Commitments”), in each case from either from one or more of the Lenders or an additional Eligible Incremental Lender; provided that (A) any such Incremental Commitment shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000, (B) the aggregate amount of all Incremental Commitments effected pursuant hereto shall not exceed $1,000,000,000; (C) any such new Term Lender shall have assumed all of the rights and obligations of a “Term Lender” hereunder; (D) any such new Revolving Lender shall have assumed all of the rights and obligations of a “Revolving Lender” hereunder; (E) any such Incremental Revolving Commitments shall, subject to Section 2.10(e), be on the same terms as the other Revolving Commitments and any such Incremental Term Commitments shall, subject to Section 2.10(e), be on the same terms as the other Term Loans; and (F) all of the procedures and other conditions described in this Section 2.10 shall have been satisfied.

(b) The Borrower Representative shall request an Incremental Commitment by delivering a notice (an “Incremental Commitment Request”) to the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly notify the Lenders of the substance thereof. The notice by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders describing each Incremental Commitment Request shall specify the time period (to be determined by the Borrower Representative in

ATL 22026536v6

consultation with the Administrative Agent, but in no event be less than 15 Business Days from the date of delivery by the Borrower Representative of the applicable Incremental Commitment Request to the Administrative Agent) within which each Lender is required to inform the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent whether such Lender intends to participate in the applicable Incremental Commitment. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within the required time period whether or not it agrees to participate in the applicable Incremental Commitment and, if so, shall specify the amount of such Incremental Commitment it desires to be allocated to it. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. Each determination by a Lender to participate in an Incremental Commitment shall be made by it in its sole and absolute discretion.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower Representative and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each Incremental Commitment Request. The Borrowers may obtain the agreement of additional Eligible Incremental Lenders to become Lenders pursuant to an Incremental Commitment Joinder Agreement, in substantially the form of Exhibit D (each, an “Incremental Commitment Joinder Agreement”). Each such Eligible Incremental Lender shall, as a condition to participating in any Incremental Commitment, be required to deliver all forms, if any, that are required to be delivered by such Eligible Incremental Lender pursuant to Section 9.04 and any other information that the Administrative Agent requires from Lenders as a condition to becoming a party to this Agreement. Any Incremental Commitment shall be allocated among the existing Lenders that agree to participate in such Incremental Commitment and additional Eligible Incremental Lenders who agree to become Lenders pursuant to an Incremental Commitment Joinder Agreement (in each case, up to the amount of each such Person’s agreed participation) as agreed by the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent.

(d) Any amendment hereto solely for Incremental Commitments shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and shall only require the written signatures of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative (on behalf of the Borrowers) and the Lender(s) providing an Incremental Commitment. As a condition precedent to any such Incremental Commitment, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (i) a certificate of each Loan Party (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by an authorized officer of such Loan Party (x) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such Incremental Commitment; and (y) in the case of the Borrowers, certifying that, before and immediately after giving effect to such increase, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article III and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct, except that such representations and warranties that relate solely to an earlier date shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date; (B) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from any such Incremental Commitment; and (C) at the time of and immediately after giving effect to each such Incremental Commitment, the Borrowers shall be in compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 6.13 (on a Pro Forma Basis for the Test Period for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b) ending immediately preceding such Incremental Commitment), which compliance shall

ATL 22026536v6

be evidenced by the due completion, execution and delivery of a Compliance Certificate and based on the assumption that such Incremental Commitment was fully drawn on the first day of such Test Period, and (ii) such opinions of counsel, evidence of flood insurance, ratification agreements, amendments to the other Loan Documents (which amendments the Administrative Agent is authorized to execute on behalf of all Lenders), and other documents, certificates and information as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request; provided that flood insurance due diligence and flood insurance compliance shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Lenders.

(e) The terms and provisions of the Loans made with respect to any Incremental Commitments shall (i) rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with, and shall have the same guarantees as the existing Loans; (ii) have a maturity date that is not earlier than the Maturity Date of the Term Loan; (iii) have a weighted average life to maturity that is no shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the Term Loans; (iv) have a rate of interest as set forth in each applicable Incremental Commitment Joinder Agreement; provided that if such interest rate is greater than the interest rate on the Term Loan, the interest rate on the existing Loans shall be increased so as to equal the interest rate applicable to the incremental Loans comprising such Incremental Commitment; and (v) otherwise be treated the same as, and not be entitled to any additional benefits than or impose any more obligations than, the Term Loan or Revolving Loans, as applicable.

(f) Any existing Lender that has a Note and participates in any Incremental Commitment shall, substantially contemporaneously with the delivery of its Note to be replaced to the Borrowers, receive a replacement Note that evidences the aggregate principal amount of its Loans outstanding hereunder. Any new Lender requesting a Note shall receive such a Note in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Incremental Commitments for which its funds pursuant to the terms of this Section.

(g) Within a reasonable time after the effective date of any Incremental Commitment, the Administrative Agent shall, and is hereby authorized and directed to, revise the Commitment Schedule to reflect any Incremental Commitment and shall distribute such revised Commitment Schedule to each of the Lenders and the Borrowers, whereupon such revised Commitment Schedule shall replace the prior Commitment Schedule and become part of this Agreement. On the Business Day following the effectiveness of any such Incremental Revolving Commitment, all outstanding Revolving Loans shall be reallocated among the Lenders (including any newly added Lenders) in accordance with the Lenders’ respective revised Applicable Percentages of the Revolving Commitments.

SECTION 2.11. Repayment and Amortization of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date; (ii) to the Administrative Agent the then unpaid amount of each Protective Advance on the earlier of the Maturity Date and demand by the Administrative Agent; (iii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Maturity Date and demand by the Swingline Lender.

ATL 22026536v6

(a) Beginning on July 5, 2017 and continuing on the second Business Day of each July, October, January and April thereafter, the Borrowers shall repay the Term Loan in an amount equal to 1.25% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan made on the Effective Date. To the extent not previously paid, the Term Loans shall be paid in full in cash by the Borrowers on the Maturity Date or any earlier date on which repayment of the Loans may be due pursuant to Article VII.

(b) [Reserved].

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

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (d) or (e) of this Section shall be evidence, absent manifest error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(f) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more Notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such Note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.12. Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (f) of this Section and payment of any amounts that are required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.17.

(a) During any Borrowing Base Period, in the event and on such occasion that the Aggregate Revolving Exposure exceeds the lesser of (A) the aggregate Revolving Commitments and (B) the Borrowing Base, the Borrowers shall promptly (but in no event later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, the following Business Day) prepay (or in the

ATL 22026536v6

case of the LC Exposure, cash collateralize) the Revolving Loans, LC Exposure and/or Swingline Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.

(b) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of any Loan Party in respect of any Prepayment Event (other than any event described in paragraph (c)(iii) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, in which case the Net Proceeds therefrom shall be applied pursuant to this paragraph (c) on the date that is 120 days after the end of each Fiscal Year in which such Net Proceeds were received), the Borrowers shall, subject to the proviso below, immediately after such Net Proceeds are received by any Loan Party, prepay the Obligations as set forth in Section 2.12(e) below in an aggregate amount equal to (i) in the case of a prepayment event described in paragraph (c) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, 50% of such Net Proceeds; and (ii) in the case of all other Prepayment Events, 100% of such Net Proceeds; provided that, in the case of any such “Prepayment Event”, if, within 365 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds, the Loan Parties have a signed commitment to apply the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof) to acquire (or replace, construct, or rebuild) assets useful in the business of the Loan Parties (including Permitted Acquisitions), and no Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Proceeds so long as such Net Proceeds are actually reinvested by the Borrowers within 180 days after the expiration of such 365 day period; provided, further, that if any such Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so applied by the end of such 180-day period, the Borrowers shall immediately prepay the Obligations in an amount equal to such Net Proceeds that have not been so committed or applied.

(d) All such amounts pursuant to Section 2.12(c) shall be applied, first to prepay any Protective Advances that may be outstanding, second to prepay the Term Loans (to be applied to installments of the Term Loans ratably in accordance with the then outstanding amounts thereof), third to prepay the Swingline Loans, fourth to prepay the Revolving Loans without a corresponding reduction in the Revolving Commitment and fifth to cash collateralize outstanding LC Exposure (in an amount equal to 100% of the amount thereof) without a corresponding reduction in the Revolving Commitment. All such amounts pursuant to Section 2.12(a) may be applied to prepay the Revolving Loans or the Term Loan, as the Borrower Representative shall direct; provided that any amounts applied pursuant to Section 2.12(a) to prepay the Term Loans shall be applied to installments due on the Term Loans in order of maturity.

(e) The Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by electronic mail or facsimile of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment; (ii) in the case of prepayment of a Base Rate Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment; or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment.

ATL 22026536v6

Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing under Section 2.12(a) shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.14.

SECTION 2.13. Fees.

(a) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender, a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the rate per annum set forth as describe in, or under the caption “Commitment Fee”, as applicable, in the definition of “Applicable Rate” on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Commitment of each such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which each such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates. Commitment fees accrued through and including the last day of each calendar quarter shall be payable on the second Business Day of each April, July, October and January of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitment terminates, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed. Solely for purposes of determining the Available Revolving Commitment in connection with the computation of commitment fees of the Revolving Lenders, the Revolving Exposure shall be deemed to exclude the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans.

(b) The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of (and to be shared pro rata among) each Revolving Lender, a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s applicable LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure. In addition, the Borrowers agree to pay the applicable Issuing Bank a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit, in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 0.125% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit and (ii) $1,000, payable on the date of the issuance and any renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit (and, in the event that the face amount of any Letter of Credit is increased after the date of issuance thereof, the Borrowers agree to pay the applicable Issuing Bank, on the date of any such increase, an additional fronting fee in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 0.125% of the amount by which the face amount of such Letter of Credit has been increased and (ii) $1,000), as well as the applicable Issuing

ATL 22026536v6

Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of each calendar quarter shall be payable on the second Business Day of each April, July, October and January of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 Business Days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees payable pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed.

(c) The Borrowers agree to pay to (i) the Administrative Agent and the other Agents the fees set forth in the Fee Letter, and (ii) the Administrative Agent, for its own account, any other fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

(d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.14. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each Base Rate Borrowing (excluding each Swingline Loan) shall accrue interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. Each Swingline Loan shall accrue interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate minus 0.250%.

(a) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall accrue interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) [Reserved].

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, (i) all Loans shall accrue interest at 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loans as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other overdue amount outstanding hereunder, such amount shall accrue interest at 2% plus the rate that is applicable to Base Rate Loans.

(e) Accrued interest on each Loan (for Base Rate Loans, accrued through the last day of the prior calendar quarter) shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) or (e) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal

ATL 22026536v6

amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed. The applicable Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.15. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders or the Required Revolving Lenders in connection with a Revolving Borrowing, that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower Representative and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Representative and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Borrowing.

(c) Illegality. If any Lender determines that any applicable law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO 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 in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Borrower Representative through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and Borrower Representative that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrowers shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans to such day, or

ATL 22026536v6

immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

SECTION 2.16. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or Issuing Bank;

(ii) subject the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank to any Taxes (other than (x) Excluded Taxes and (y) Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes covered by Section 2.18) imposed as a result of a present or former connection between such Administrative Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank and the jurisdiction imposing such Tax on its Loans, Letters of Credit or Commitments, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable to such Loans, Letters of Credit or Commitments; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans 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 Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise in respect of any such Eurodollar Loan or Letter of Credit), then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided that the Borrowers shall not be treated less favorably with respect to such amounts than other similarly situated borrowers of such Lender or Issuing Bank (it being understood that this provision shall not be construed to obligate any Lender or Issuing Bank to make available any information that, in its sole discretion, it deems confidential).

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

will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; provided that the Borrowers shall not be treated less favorably with respect to such amounts than other similarly situated borrowers of such Lender or Issuing Bank (it being understood that this provision shall not be construed to obligate any Lender or Issuing Bank to make available any information that, in its sole discretion, it deems confidential).

(c) A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower Representative of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; and provided, further, that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.17. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (ii) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.09(d) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (iv) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower Representative pursuant to Section 2.20, then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event (excluding loss of the Applicable Rate). A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.18. Taxes. (a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.18, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as

ATL 22026536v6

determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrowers shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.18) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

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

(c) Indemnification by the Borrowers. the Borrowers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Bermuda Borrowers shall have no obligation to indemnify any Person with respect to Indemnified Taxes levied in respect of payments made by the Company or obligations that do not constitute Bermuda Obligations. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower Representative by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrowers have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(d) relating to the recording of book entries with respect sales of participating interests and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

ATL 22026536v6

(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrowers to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.18, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, if applicable, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.18(ii)(g)(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.

(i) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

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

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

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed

ATL 22026536v6

copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

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

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

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

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

ATL 22026536v6

(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 Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

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

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.18 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.18), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

ATL 22026536v6

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.18 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

SECTION 2.19. Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by them hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.16, 2.17 or 2.18) prior to 1:00 p.m. New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at such account as the Administrative Agent may designate to Borrower Representative in writing from time to time, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s lending office as specified in its Administrative Questionnaire or such other office as notified in writing by such Lender to the Administrative Agent. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars.

(a) Any proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct shall be applied ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Issuing Bank from the Borrowers (other than in connection with Bank Product Obligations); second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lender Parties from the Borrowers (other than in connection with Bank Product Obligations); third, to pay interest due in respect of Protective Advances; fourth, to pay the principal of Protective Advances; fifth, on a pro rata basis, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans (other than Protective Advances); sixth, on a pro rata basis, to prepay principal on the Loans (other than Protective Advances) and LC Disbursements and any amounts owing with respect to Bank Product Obligations that are Swap Obligations; seventh, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the aggregate undrawn face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate amount of any unpaid LC Disbursements ratably in accordance with the then outstanding amounts thereof, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations; eighth, to pay any amounts owing with respect to Bank Product Obligations that are Banking Services; and ninth, to pay any other Secured Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party by the Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower Representative, or unless an Event of Default is in

ATL 22026536v6

existence, neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Lender Party shall apply any payment which it receives to any Eurodollar Loan of a Class, except (i) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Eurodollar Loan or (ii) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding Base Rate Loans of the same Class and, in any such event, the Borrowers shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.17. The Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Secured Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) any such application of proceeds from Collateral securing solely the Bermuda Secured Obligations shall be made solely in respect of the Bermuda Secured Obligations and (B) Excluded Swap Obligations with respect to any Loan Guarantor shall not be paid with amounts received from such Loan Guarantor or such Loan Guarantor’s assets, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to payments from other Loan Parties to preserve the allocation to Secured Obligations otherwise set forth above in this Section.

(b) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary 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 Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant. Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Requirements of Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower Representative prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or an Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the

ATL 22026536v6

Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is demanded to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(d) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05, 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.19(d) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.20. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.16, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.18, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment;

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.16, or if the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrowers may (i) at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (A) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Banks), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and funded participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts), and the assignee shall have assumed all unfunded obligations of such Lender in respect of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, and (C) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.16 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.18, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments; or (ii) if approved by the Required Lenders, terminate the Commitments of

ATL 22026536v6

such Lender and repay all non-contingent obligations of the Borrowers owing to such Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. This Section 2.20 shall not be the exclusive remedy of the Borrowers with respect to any Lender Party that is a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.21. Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Defaulting Lender Cash Collateral.

(i) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.21(b)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.

(ii) The Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit, to be applied pursuant to clause (iii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrowers will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.21(a) or Section 2.21(b) in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(iv) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.21(a) following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent

ATL 22026536v6

and each Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.21(b) the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations, and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by any Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

(b) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such 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 Required Lenders and/or Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable.

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.19(c) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize each Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.21(a); fourth, as the Borrower Representative may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future Fronting Exposure with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize any Issuing Banks’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.21(a); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such 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 the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth,

ATL 22026536v6

to such 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 Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued 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 Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.21(b)(iv). 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 2.21(b)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. (A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fees payable under Section 2.13(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(A) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive participation fees payable under Section 2.13(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.21(a).

(B) With respect to any commitment fee or participation fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrowers shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure and Swingline Exposure shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause

ATL 22026536v6

the aggregate Revolving Exposures of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitments. Subject to Section 11.09, 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 Swingline Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.21(a).

(c) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and each Swingline Lender and Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative 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 Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the applicable Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.21(b)(iv), whereupon such 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 the Borrowers 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.

SECTION 2.22. Returned Payments. If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations, the Administrative Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then the Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the

ATL 22026536v6

Administrative Agent or such Lender. The provisions of this Section 2.22 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds. The provisions of this Section 2.22 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.23. Bermuda Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the term “Borrower” shall include To- Ricos and To-Ricos Distribution only to the extent of the Bermuda Obligations. The Bermuda Borrowers shall have no obligation to pay or reimburse any cost or expense or indemnify or hold harmless any Person with respect to any Loss that is not a direct and proximate result of the Bermuda Borrowers’ action (or failure to act). In addition, nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted or construed as an agreement by the Bermuda Borrowers to pay or reimburse, or a direct or indirect Guarantee by the Bermuda Borrowers of, or direct or indirect pledge of their assets to secure, the U.S. Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall be jointly and severally liable for the Bermuda Obligations.

The Loan Parties acknowledge that the Administrative Agent, after exercising its rights of inspection, may prepare and distribute to the other Lender Parties certain Reports pertaining to the Loan Parties’ assets for internal use by such Lender Parties.

SECTION 5.11. Appraisals. At intervals and frequency as reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, the Borrowers and the Subsidiaries will provide the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent with appraisals or updates thereof of their Inventory, from an appraiser selected and engaged by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and prepared on a basis reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, such appraisals and updates to include, without limitation, information required by Requirements of Law. One such appraisal per calendar year shall be at the sole expense of the Loan Parties; provided that notwithstanding such limitation, (a) if a Minimum Availability Period has been in effect for a period of at least 30 consecutive days during such calendar year, an additional appraisal (to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent) shall be at the sole expense of the Loan Parties, (b) if a Borrowing Base Period is in effect during such calendar year, an additional appraisal (to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent) shall be at the sole expense of the Loan Parties, provided further, for the avoidance of doubt, up to three such appraisals during such calendar year and (c) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then there shall be no limitation as to number and frequency of such appraisals that shall be at the sole expense of the Loan Parties.

ATL 22026536v6

ensure the adequacy of Collateral and related reporting and control systems. Two such field examinations per calendar year shall be at the sole expense of the Loan Parties; provided that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent agree not to conduct (or cause to be conducted) more than one such field examination every six months; and provided, further, that (a) notwithstanding the limitation in the preceding proviso, an additional field examination (and, for the avoidance of doubt, three such field examinations during such calendar year) shall be at the sole expense of the Loan Parties if a Minimum Availability Period has been in effect for a period of at least 30 consecutive days during such calendar year; and (b) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then there shall be no limitation as to number and frequency of such field examinations that shall be at the sole expense of the Loan Parties.

SECTION 5.13. Additional Collateral; Further Assurances; Post-Closing Letter Agreement. (a) Subject to Requirements of Law, each Borrower and each Subsidiary that is a U.S. Loan Party shall cause (i) any Material Subsidiary created or acquired after the Effective Date, (ii) any Subsidiary that has otherwise become a Material Subsidiary after the Effective Date (it being understood that a Subsidiary’s status as a Material Subsidiary for the purposes of clauses (i) and (ii) shall be as determined as of the most recent date upon which financial statements have been required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b)) or (iii) any Domestic Subsidiary or Foreign DRE whose Equity Interests are not held directly or indirectly by a Foreign Subsidiary that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes that incurs any Indebtedness for borrowed money (other than intercompany Indebtedness) or Guarantees any such Indebtedness to become, not later than 45 days after the occurrence of any of the foregoing events or determinations, as applicable (which period may be extended, for a period not to exceed 60 days, by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), a U.S. Loan Party by executing the Joinder Agreement set forth as Exhibit M hereto (the “Joinder Agreement”). Upon execution and delivery thereof, each such Person (x) shall automatically become a U.S. Loan Guarantor hereunder and thereupon shall have all of the rights, benefits, duties and obligations in such capacity under the Loan Documents and (y) will, subject to the limitations relating to pledges of Equity Interests in paragraph (b) of this Section 5.13, grant Liens to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lender Parties) in any property of such U.S. Loan Party which constitutes Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither PPC Mexico nor any of PPC Mexico’s subsidiaries is or shall be required to become a U.S. Loan Party.

(a) To secure the prompt payment and performance of all the U.S. Secured Obligations, each Borrower and each Subsidiary that is a U.S. Loan Party will cause (i) 100% of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests of each of (A) the Domestic Subsidiaries other than Domestic Subsidiaries whose Equity Interests are owned, directly or indirectly, by a Foreign Subsidiary that is treated as a corporation for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, and (B) the Foreign DREs whose Equity Interests are not held directly or indirectly by a Foreign Subsidiary that is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, other than any such Foreign DRE that is acquired after the Effective Date where the assets

106

ATL 22026536v6

of such Foreign DRE include Equity Interests of a “controlled foreign corporation” (within the meaning of Section 957(a) of the Code) that, when aggregated with any other Equity Interests held by any other Affiliates of such Foreign DRE would constitute ownership of greater than 65% of the total combined classes of Equity Interests entitled to vote in such controlled foreign corporation (it being understood that, pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section, such Foreign DRE shall pledge all of its assets which do not constitute Equity Interests in such controlled foreign corporation and such Equity Interest in the controlled foreign corporation such that, when aggregated with the Equity Interests of such controlled foreign corporation pledged by any other Affiliates of the Foreign DRE, the total Equity Interests pledged by the Foreign DRE will constitute a pledge of 65% of the total combined classes of Equity Interests entitled to vote in such controlled foreign corporation); (ii) 65% of the Equity Interests constituting the total combined classes of Equity Interests entitled to vote in each First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary that is not a Foreign DRE; and (iii) 100% of the non-voting Equity Interests of each First-Tier Foreign Subsidiary that is not a Foreign DRE, to be subject at all times to a valid, perfected first priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in favor of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lender Parties) pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no U.S. Loan Party shall be required to pledge any Equity Interests of PPC Mexico or its subsidiaries. The Borrowers agree that if (w) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Representative that as a result of a Change in Law there is a reason to believe that a pledge of a greater percentage of any Foreign Subsidiary’s voting Equity Interests or a guarantee by any Foreign Subsidiary of the U.S. Secured Obligations could not reasonably be expected to result in a “deemed dividend” under Section 956 of the Code or any other Tax liability to the Borrowers or any Foreign Subsidiary which would not have otherwise resulted absent such pledge and (x) subsequent to the receipt of such notice the Borrower Representative reasonably determines (which determination the Borrower Representative agrees to consider, in consultation with its counsel and other tax advisors, promptly following receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent) that a pledge of more than 65% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Equity Interests entitled to vote of such Foreign Subsidiary or a guarantee by such Foreign Subsidiary of the U.S. Secured Obligations could not reasonably be expected to result in such a “deemed dividend” or any other Tax liability to the Borrowers or any Foreign Subsidiary which would not have otherwise resulted absent such pledge, the applicable Borrower will promptly pledge such greater percentage of the voting Equity Interests of each such Foreign Subsidiary and cause each such Foreign Subsidiary to provide a guarantee of the U.S. Secured Obligations, in each case to the extent that the foregoing could not reasonably be expected to result in such a “deemed dividend” under Section 956 of the Code or other Tax liability to the Borrowers or any Foreign Subsidiary. Furthermore, the Lenders agree that if (y) the Borrower Representative notifies the Lenders that as a result of a Change in Law there is a reason to believe that a pledge of a lower percentage of any Foreign Subsidiary’s voting Equity Interests would be reasonably necessary in order to avoid there being a “deemed dividend” under Section 956 of the Code or otherwise triggering material Tax liability to the Borrowers or any Foreign Subsidiary and (z) subsequent to the receipt of such notice, each Lender reasonably determines (which determination each Lender agrees to consider, in consultation with its counsel and other tax

107

ATL 22026536v6

advisors, promptly following receipt of such notice from the Borrower Representative) that a pledge of less than 65% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Equity Interests entitled to vote of such Foreign Subsidiary would be reasonably necessary in order to avoid there being a “deemed dividend” under Section 956 of the Code or otherwise triggering material Tax liability to the Borrowers or any Foreign Subsidiary, the applicable Borrower may promptly pledge such lower percentage of the voting Equity Interests of each such Foreign Subsidiary and the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lender Parties) shall promptly release any excess percentage, to the extent necessary such that the foregoing would avoid there being a “deemed dividend” under Section 956 of the Code or otherwise triggering material Tax liability to the Borrowers or any Foreign Subsidiary.

(b) Subject to Requirements of Law, each Bermuda Borrower and each other Bermuda Loan Party shall cause (i) any Material Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of Bermuda and is created or acquired after the Effective Date, (ii) any Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of Bermuda and has otherwise become a Material Subsidiary after the Effective Date (it being understood that a Subsidiary’s status as a Material Subsidiary for the purposes of clauses (i) and (ii) above shall be as determined as of the most recent date upon which financial statements have been required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b)) or (iii) any Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of Bermuda that incurs any Indebtedness for borrowed money (other than intercompany Indebtedness) or Guarantees any such Indebtedness to become, not later than 45 days after the occurrence of any of the foregoing events or determinations, as applicable (which period may be extended, for a period not to exceed 60 days, by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), a Bermuda Loan Guarantor by executing a guarantee agreement that guarantees repayment of the Bermuda Secured Obligations (which guarantee agreement shall be in substantially the form of the Bermuda Guaranty) and a security agreement (which shall, among other things, pledge 100% of the Equity Interests in each such Subsidiary and grant a security interest in all the personal property of each such Subsidiary, the foregoing to be in substantially the form of the Bermuda Pledge Agreement, the Bermuda Security Agreement or the Puerto Rico Security Agreement, as applicable) that secures repayment of the Bermuda Secured Obligations, together with such other documentation and filings that the Administrative Agent may reasonably require in order to perfect its valid, perfected first priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in the assets subject to the terms of such Security Agreement.

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, each Loan Party will, and will cause each Subsidiary to, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Administrative Agent such documents, agreements and instruments, and will take or cause to be taken such further actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust and other documents and such other actions or deliveries of the type required by Section 4.01, as applicable), which may be required by law or which the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, reasonably request to carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to ensure perfection and priority of the Liens created or intended to be created by the Collateral Documents, all at the expense of the Loan Parties. To the extent that any Loan Party is

108

ATL 22026536v6

(o) the occurrence of any “Event of Default” (as defined in the U.S. Security Agreement);

(p) any Loan Guaranty shall fail to remain in full force or effect or any action shall be taken by (i) any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates or (ii) any other Person (other than a Lender Party or its Affiliates) if, in the case of this clause (ii), such action has a reasonable likelihood of being determined in a manner adverse to the Loan Parties, to discontinue or to assert the invalidity or unenforceability of any Loan Guaranty or any Loan Guarantor shall deny that it has any further liability under any Loan Guaranty to which it is a party, or shall give notice to such effect (except as expressly provided for herein);

(q) any Collateral Document shall for any reason fail to create a valid, perfected first priority security interest (subject to Permitted Liens) in any Collateral purported to be covered thereby (other than to the extent such failure results from failure by the Administrative Agent to file UCC financing statements or continuation statements under the UCC in respect of such security interest), except as permitted by the terms of any Collateral Document, or any Collateral Document shall fail to remain in full force or effect or any action shall be taken by (i) any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates or (ii) any other Person (other than a Lender Party or its Affiliates) if, in the case of this clause (ii), such action has a reasonable likelihood of being determined in a manner adverse to the Loan Parties, to discontinue or to assert the invalidity or unenforceability of any Collateral Document; or

(r) any material provision of any Loan Document for any reason ceases to be valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms (or any Loan Party shall challenge the enforceability of any Loan Document or shall assert in writing, or engage in any action or inaction based on any such assertion, that any provision of any of the Loan Documents has ceased to be or otherwise is not valid, binding and enforceable in accordance with its terms);

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Borrowers described in paragraph (h) or (i) of this Article), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower Representative, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately, and (ii) declare the Loans and other Obligations then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any Obligations not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the Loans and other Obligations so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrowers accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers; and in case of any event with respect to the Borrowers described in paragraph (h) or (i) of this Article, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans and other Obligations then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other

ARTICLE VIII

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ISSUING BANK,
COLLATERAL, AND AFFILIATES OF LENDERS

SECTION 8.01. Authorization and Action.

(a) Each of the Lenders and Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article 8 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and Issuing Bank, and no Loan Party has rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the collateral agent under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders and Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and Issuing Bank for purposes of acquiring, holding, and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as collateral agent and any co-agents, sub-agents, and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.5 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article 8 and Section 9.03 as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. The Administrative Agent is authorized on behalf of all the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Lenders or Issuing Bank, from time to time to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the Loan Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon any Collateral granted pursuant to any Collateral Document.

134

ATL 22026536v6

(c) The Collateral Agent shall have the same rights, powers, immunities, indemnities and exclusions from liability as are prescribed in favor of the Administrative Agent in this Agreement, which shall apply equally to the Collateral Agent acting in its capacity as such.

SECTION 8.02. Administrative Agent and its Affiliates.

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

(b) Each Lender and Issuing Bank understands that the Person serving as the Administrative Agent, acting in its individual capacity, and its Affiliates (collectively, the “Agent’s Group”) is engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses (including investment management, financing, securities trading, corporate and investment banking and research) (such services and businesses are collectively referred to in this Article 8 as “Activities”) any may engage in the Activities with or on behalf of one or more of the Loan Parties or their respective Affiliates. Furthermore, the members of the Agent’s Group may, in undertaking the Activities, engage in trading in financial products or undertake other investment businesses for its own account or on behalf of others (including the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and including holding, for its own account or on behalf of others, equity, debt and similar positions in the Company, another Loan Party or their respective Affiliates), including trading in or holding long, short or derivative positions in securities, loans, or other financial products of one or more of the Loan Parties or their Affiliates. Each Lender and Issuing Bank understands and agrees that in engaging in the Activities, the members of the Agent’s Group may receive or otherwise obtain information concerning the Loan Parties or their Affiliates (including information concerning the ability of the Loan Parties to perform their respective obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) which information may not be available to any of the Lenders that are not members of the Agent’s Group. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any other member of the Agent’s Group shall have any duty to disclose to any Lender or Issuing Bank or use on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank, nor be liable for the failure to so disclose or use, any information whatsoever about or derived from the Activities or otherwise (including any information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party) or to account for any revenue or profits obtained in connection with the Activities, except that the Administrative Agent shall deliver or otherwise make available to each Lender such documents as are expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders.

135

ATL 22026536v6

(c) Each Lender and Issuing Bank further understands that there may be situations where members of the Agent’s Group or their respective customers (including the Loan Parties and their Affiliates) either now have or may in the future have interests or take actions that may conflict with the interests of any one or more of the Lenders or Issuing Banks (including the interests of any Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents). Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees that no member of the Agent’s Group is or shall be required to restrict its activities as a result of any Person serving as the Administrative Agent being a member of the Agent’s Group, and that each member of the Agent’s Group may undertake any Activities without further consultation with or notification of any Lender or Issuing Bank. None of (i) this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, (ii) the receipt by the any members of the Agent’s Group of information (including information concerning the ability of the Loan Parties to perform their respective obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents), or (iii) any other matter, shall give rise to any fiduciary, equitable, or except as expressly provided in this Agreement, contractual duties (including any duty of trust, care or confidence), owing by the Administrative Agent or any member of the Agent’s Group to any Lender or Issuing Bank including any such duty that would prevent or restrict any member of the Agent’s Group from acting on behalf of customers (including the Loan Parties or their Affiliates) or for its own account.

SECTION 8.03. Duties. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(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 Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required 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 Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law;

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

(d) shall not be liable for any damage or loss resulting from or caused by events or circumstances beyond the Administrative Agent's reasonable control, including

136

ATL 22026536v6

nationalization, expropriation, currency or funds transfer restrictions, the interruption, disruption, or suspension of the normal procedures and practices of any securities market, power, mechanical, communications, or other technological failures or interruptions, computer viruses or the like, fires, floods, earthquakes, or other natural disasters, civil, and military disturbance, acts of war or terrorism, riots, revolution, acts of God, work stoppages, strikes, national disasters of any kind, or other similar events or acts, or errors by the Borrower in its instructions to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.04. Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Etc.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances provided in Section 9.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until a Loan Party, a Lender, or Issuing Bank has given written notice describing such Default or Event of Default to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 4 or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document, or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent, or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for a Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected

137

ATL 22026536v6

by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

SECTION 8.05. Sub-Agents. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The Administrative Agent is authorized on behalf of all the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Lenders or Issuing Bank, from time to time to permit any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the Loan Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon any Collateral granted pursuant to any Collateral Document. The exculpatory provisions of this Article 8, as well as all other indemnity and expense reimbursement provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 9.03), shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent and as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

SECTION 8.06. Resignation.

(a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice of its resignation to the Lenders, Issuing Bank, and the Borrowers. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with and, so long as no Default or Event of Default then exists, subject to the approval (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of, the Borrower Representative, to appoint a successor, which shall be a financial institution with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such financial institution with an office in the United States. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and, if applicable, the Borrower Representative and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any possessory Collateral held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or Issuing Bank under any of the Loan

138

ATL 22026536v6

Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuing Bank directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent) and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as the Administrative Agent.

(c) Any resignation by Rabobank as the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Article shall also constitute its resignation as Collateral Agent, Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent, Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, (ii) the retiring Collateral Agent, Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (iii) 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 reasonably satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

SECTION 8.07. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender and Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative 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 Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative 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. In this regards, each Lender further acknowledges that Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx. LLP is acting in this transaction as special counsel to Rabobank only, except to the extent otherwise expressly stated in any legal opinion or any Loan Document. Each other party hereto will consult with its own legal counsel to

139

ATL 22026536v6

the extent that it deems necessary in connection with the Loan Documents and the matters contemplated therein.

SECTION 8.08. Other Agent Titles. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the “Joint Bookrunners”, “Lead Arranger”, “Joint Lead Arrangers”, “Joint Syndication Agents”, or “Joint Documentation Agents” listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, a Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder.

SECTION 8.09. Agent May File Proofs of Claim; Bankruptcy Events. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or LC Disbursement shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand any Loan Party or any other Person primarily or secondarily liable) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated), by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Disbursements and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, Issuing Bank, and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, Issuing Bank, and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, Issuing Bank, and the Administrative Agent under Article 2 and Section 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same in accordance with this Agreement;

(c) and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and Issuing Bank, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Article 2 and Section 9.03.

SECTION 8.10. Collateral. (a) The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Secured Parties to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Administrative Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or that any particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria applicable in respect thereof or whether to impose, maintain,

140

ATL 22026536v6

reduce, or eliminate any particular reserve hereunder or whether the amount of any such reserve is appropriate or not, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Administrative Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, the Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion given the Administrative Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that the Administrative Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Secured Party as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise provided herein.

(a) The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, to (i) consent to, credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale or other disposition thereof conducted under the provisions of the UCC, including pursuant to Section 9-610 or 9-620 of the UCC, or (iii) credit bid or purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid or purchase, (A) the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not unduly delay the ability of the Administrative Agent to credit bid or purchase at such sale or other disposition of the Collateral and, if such claims cannot be estimated without unduly delaying the ability of the Administrative Agent to credit bid, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled to any interest in the asset or assets purchased by means of such credit bid) and the Secured Parties whose Obligations are credit bid shall be entitled to receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase), and (B) the Administrative Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, may accept non-cash consideration, including debt and equity securities issued by such acquisition vehicle or vehicles and in connection therewith the Administrative Agent may reduce the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties (ratably based upon the proportion of their Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Obligations so credit bid) based upon the value of such non-cash consideration.

SECTION 8.11. Issuing Bank. Neither Issuing Bank nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them hereunder or otherwise in connection with any Loan Document except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, Issuing Bank (a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and shall not by reason of any Loan Document be a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or for the Xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

000

XXX 00000000x0

Xxxxx, (x) shall not be required to initiate any litigation or collection proceedings under any Loan Document, (c) shall not be responsible to any Lender or the Administrative Agent for any recitals, statements, representations, or warranties contained in any Loan Document, or any certificate or other documentation referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, any Loan Document, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, enforceability, or sufficiency of any Loan Document or any other documentation referred to or provided for therein or for any failure by any Person to perform any of its obligations thereunder, (d) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent), independent public accountants, and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants, or experts, and (e) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate, or other instrument or writing believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. As to any matters not expressly provided for by any Loan Document, Issuing Bank shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with instructions signed by the Required Lenders, and such instructions of the Required Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that Issuing Bank shall not be required to take any action which Issuing Bank reasonably believes exposes it to personal liability or which Issuing Bank reasonably believes is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law.

SECTION 8.12. Agency for Perfection. The Administrative Agent hereby appoints each other Lender (and each Bank Product Provider) as its agent (and each Lender hereby accepts (and by entering into a Bank Product Provider Letter Agreement, each Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to accept) such appointment) for the purpose of perfecting the Administrative Agent’s Liens in assets which, in accordance with Article 8 or Article 9, as applicable, of the UCC can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver possession or control of such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.

SECTION 8.13. Affiliates of Lenders; Bank Product Providers. By accepting the benefits of the Loan Documents, any Affiliate of a Lender that is owed any Bank Product Obligation is bound by the terms of the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) neither the Administrative Agent, any Lender nor any Loan Party shall be obligated to deliver any notice or communication required to be delivered to any Lender under any Loan Documents to any Affiliate of any Lender; and (b) no Affiliate of any Lender that is owed any Bank Product Obligation shall be included in the determination of the Required Lenders or entitled to consent to, reject, or participate in any manner in any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document. The Administrative Agent shall deal solely and directly with the related Lender of any such Affiliate in connection with all matters relating to the Loan Documents. The Bank Product Obligation owed to such Affiliate shall be considered the Secured Obligations of its related Lender for all purposes under the Loan Documents and such Lender shall be solely responsible to the other parties hereto for all the obligations of such Affiliate under any Loan Document. It is understood and agreed that the rights and benefits under this Agreement, the Collateral Documents, and the Loan Guaranties of each Bank Product Provider, in such capacity, consist exclusively of such Bank Product Provider’s

142

ATL 22026536v6

right to share in payments and collections of the Collateral and payments under the Loan Guaranties; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, any release of Collateral or any Loan Guarantors effected in the manner permitted by this Agreement shall not require the consent of holders of any Bank Product Obligations (in such capacity). All Bank Product Obligations shall be secured but on a silent basis, so that notwithstanding any other provision, if any, in this Agreement or any Collateral Document or Loan Guaranty, no Bank Product Provider shall be able to take any action in respect of the Collateral or Loan Guaranties nor instruct the Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent to take any such action nor have any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or the obligations of any Loan Guarantor under any Loan Guaranty. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral and the Loan Guaranties, such Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent as its agent and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 8.13. The Administrative Agent shall not owe any fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure, or any other obligation whatsoever to any Bank Product Provider with respect to any Bank Product Obligation. The Administrative Agent shall have no duty to determine the amount or the existence of any amounts owing under any Bank Product Obligations. In connection with any such distribution of payments and collections or termination or release by the Administrative Agent of any Liens or Loan Guarantors thereunder, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to assume no amounts are due under any Bank Product Agreement unless such Bank Product Provider has notified the Administrative Agent in writing of the amount of any such liability owed to it at least 5 Business Days prior to such distribution, termination, or release.

Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender, and the Related Parties of each of them from all losses, costs, expenses, and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of a Borrower. The Administrative Agent may record all telephonic notices to, and other telephonic communications with, the Administrative Agent and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by any Lender Party in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Lender Parties hereunder and under any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Lender Party may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended, restated or otherwise modified except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders; or (ii) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party that is a party thereto, with the consent of the Required Lenders ; provided that no such agreement shall:

(A) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender and any Voting Participant, it being understood that waivers, amendments, restatements or other modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the aggregate commitments shall not constitute increases in any Commitment (provided that the Administrative Agent may make Protective Advances as set forth in Section 2.04);

(B) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any interest or fees payable hereunder, in each case without the written consent

146

ATL 22026536v6

of each Lender and Voting Participant directly affected thereby; provided that nothing in this paragraph (B) shall restrict the ability of any Lender to reduce or forgive any amounts payable to such Lender with respect to any Loan or Letter of Credit without the consent of any other Lender or Voting Participant;

(C) except as otherwise provided in Sections 9.02(b)(I) and (J) below, extend the maturity of any Loan or postpone any scheduled date of payment of the regularly scheduled installment payments of principal of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest, fees or other Obligations payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender and Voting Participant directly affected thereby;

(D) change Section 2.19(b) or (d) in a manner that would alter the manner in which payments are shared, without the written consent of each Lender and Voting Participant directly affected thereby;

(E) (1) increase the advance rates set forth in the definition of “Borrowing Base” or (2) make changes affecting (x) eligibility criteria, as such eligibility criteria are in effect on the Effective Date (including adding new categories of eligible assets or eliminating any categories of Reserves) under the Borrowing Base or (y) the definition of “Dilution Reserve” or “Value of Eligible Inventory”, in each case having the effect of increasing Availability, without the written consent of the Required Lenders and the Required Revolving Lenders (each voting as a separate class);

(F) change (1) any of the provisions of this Section, (2) the definitions of “Required Lenders”, “Required Revolving Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, or (3) the definition of “Change in Control”, in each case without the written consent of each Lender and Voting Participant;

(G) release any Loan Guarantor from its obligation under any Loan Guaranty to which it is a party (except as otherwise permitted herein, including without limitation pursuant to Sections 6.03, 6.05 and 9.02(e) and (f), or in the other Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender;

(H) except as provided in paragraph (c) of this Section or in any Collateral Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender and Voting Participant; or

147

ATL 22026536v6

(I) reduce the amount of, or extend the payment date for, any required mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 2.12, without the written consent of the Required Lenders;

provided, further, that (i) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Issuing Bank hereunder without the prior written consent of such Agent, the Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank, as applicable; (ii) amendments pursuant to Section 2.10(d) shall be effective as described therein; and (iii) when a Defaulting Lender shall exist, Section 2.21 shall control with respect to voting of such Lender that is a Defaulting Lender. The Administrative Agent may also amend the Commitment Schedule to reflect assignments entered into pursuant to Section 9.04.

(b) The Lender Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral (i) upon the termination of all Commitments and Full Satisfaction of all Secured Obligations; (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if the Loan Party disposing of such property certifies to the Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), and to the extent that the property being sold or disposed of constitutes 100% of the Equity Interests of a Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent is authorized to release any Loan Guaranty provided by such Subsidiary; (iii) constituting property leased to a Loan Party under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement; (iv) as required to effect any sale or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article VII; (v) as provided in the Collateral Documents; or (vi) to the extent required under Section 5.13(b). Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent will not release any Liens on Collateral without the prior written authorization of the Required Lenders. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. Nothing in this paragraph shall relieve the Administrative Agent of any obligations to release the Liens on any Collateral to the extent required under any Loan Document if the Loan Parties have satisfied the conditions for such release.

(c) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender directly affected thereby”, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders or Voting Participants is not obtained (any such Lender or Voting Participant whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrowers may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement or, with the consent of the Required Lenders, terminate the Commitments of such Lender and repay all non-contingent Obligations of the Borrowers owing to such Lender relating to the Loans held by such Lender as of such termination date; provided that,

148

ATL 22026536v6

concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of paragraph (b) of Section 9.04, and (ii) the Borrowers shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by the Borrowers hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.16 and 2.18, and (2) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender or Voting Participant on the day of such replacement under Section 2.17 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender.

(d) From time to time, the Company may cause one or more additional direct or indirect, wholly-owned Subsidiaries to become Borrowers hereunder by delivering, or causing to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent in respect of each applicable Subsidiary, the following, each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent: (i) a Joinder Agreement in the form of Exhibit M attached hereto, executed and delivered by such Subsidiary (the date of each such Joinder Agreement being referred to herein as a “Joinder Date”, which date shall be at least ten days after the Company provides notice to the Administrative Agent of its intention to cause such Subsidiary to become a Borrower hereunder), (ii) replacement Notes dated as of the applicable Joinder Date payable to each Lender for which an existing Note is outstanding on such Joinder Date, (iii) a written confirmation by the Loan Guarantors that their guarantee obligations shall apply to the obligations of such Subsidiary under the Loan Documents from and after the Joinder Date and (iv) such other approvals, opinions or documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request; provided that no Subsidiary may become a Borrower hereunder pursuant to this paragraph (e) if (x) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the applicable Joinder Date, or shall result from the joinder of such Subsidiary as a Borrower on such Joinder Date, or (y) such Subsidiary is not organized under the laws of any jurisdiction of the United States or Bermuda. Without limiting the foregoing, if the designation of any additional direct or indirect, wholly-owned Subsidiary as a Borrower hereunder obligates the Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with “know your customer” or similar regulatory requirements and the information necessary for such compliance is not already available to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, the Company shall, promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, supply such documentation and other evidence as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, in order for it to comply with all “know your customer” and/or similar identification procedures required under all applicable laws and regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assets of any Person that becomes a Borrower hereunder will be included in the Borrowing Base until such time as the Collateral Agent shall have conducted such field exams, audits and inspections of such assets as it may require in its Permitted Discretion.

149

ATL 22026536v6

(e) From time to time, the Company may cause any Loan Party (other than the Company and Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation of West Virginia, Inc.) to cease to be a Loan Party hereunder by (i) delivering to the Administrative Agent a notice to such effect, specifying the identity of the applicable Loan Party and the proposed date on which such Loan Party shall no longer be a Loan Party hereunder, which date shall be no earlier than five Business Days after delivery of such notice (each such date being referred to herein as a “Loan Party Removal Date”) and (ii) delivering, or causing to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent replacement Notes dated as of the applicable Loan Party Removal Date payable to each Lender for which an existing Note is outstanding on such Loan Party Removal Date, executed by the Company and each other Loan Party that shall not cease to be a Loan Party on such Loan Party Removal Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided that no Loan Party may cease to be a Loan Party hereunder pursuant to this Section 9.02(f) if (i) a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the applicable Loan Party Removal Date, or shall result from such Loan Party ceasing to be a Loan Party hereunder on such Loan Party Removal Date, (ii) the Loan Party to be removed became a U.S. Loan Guarantor or a Bermuda Loan Guarantor pursuant to Section 5.13(a) or (c), (iii) the Loan Party to be removed is a Material Subsidiary, or (iv) the Loan Party to be removed is a Borrower and the Loans of such Borrower have not been paid in full in cash prior to the applicable Loan Party Removal Date. Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the preceding sentence, on the applicable Loan Party Removal Date, the applicable Loan Party shall no longer be a “Borrower”, a “U.S. Borrower,” a “Bermuda Borrower,” a “U.S. Loan Guarantor,” a “Bermuda Loan Guarantor,” a “Loan Party”, as the case may be, hereunder or under any other Loan Document. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that any Loan Party shall cease to be a Loan Party hereunder in accordance with this Section 9.02(f), the other Loan Parties shall remain jointly and severally liable with respect to each Loan made to such Loan Party and each Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Loan Party outstanding on the applicable Loan Party Removal Date.

(a) Except as provided in Section 2.23, the Borrowers shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of a single New York legal counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and one local counsel in each jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate in its good faith discretion, in connection with the syndication and distribution (including via the internet or through the Platform) of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of the Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated); (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (limited, in the case of attorneys’ fees, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one outside counsel) incurred by the applicable Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder; and (iii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and

(E) sums paid or incurred to take any action required of any Loan Party under the Loan Documents that such Loan Party fails to pay or take (other than items being contested in good faith or Taxes being contested or not paid in compliance with Section 5.04); and

(F) forwarding loan proceeds, collecting checks and other items of payment, and establishing and maintaining the accounts and lock boxes, and costs and expenses of preserving and protecting the Collateral.

(b) Except as provided in Section 2.23, the Borrowers shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each Lender Party, the Lead Arranger and each Related Party of a Lender Party or the Lead Arranger (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, incremental taxes, liabilities and related expenses (including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one general legal counsel for all of the Indemnitees, taken as a whole, one local legal counsel for all of the Indemnitees, taken as a whole, in each jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate in its good faith discretion, and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional legal counsel for all of the Indemnitees, taken as a whole) (collectively, a “Loss”) incurred by or asserted

151

ATL 22026536v6

against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, the Original Credit Agreement, and any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby; (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit); (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries; (iv) the failure of the Borrowers to deliver to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence with respect to a payment made by the Borrowers for Taxes pursuant to Section 2.18; or (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any particular Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(c) To the extent that the Borrowers fail to pay any amount required to be paid by them to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, an Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable 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, penalty, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each 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 or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

152

ATL 22026536v6

that (i) no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and Voting Participant (and any attempted assignment or transfer by a Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lender Parties) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(a) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

(A) the Borrower Representative; provided that no consent of the Borrower Representative shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; provided that the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof;

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

153

ATL 22026536v6

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

(C) no assignment shall be made to (1) the Parent Entity or any of its Affiliates (including the Company and its Subsidiaries), (2) any natural Person or (3) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (3);

(D) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with, in each case other than an assignment by a Lender to any of its Affiliates or any other Person under common control with such Lender, a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and

(E) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Company, the Loan Parties and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and Requirements of Law, including Federal and state securities laws.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers and the Lender Parties, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount

154

ATL 22026536v6

(and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements 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 Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the other Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, the Agents, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04, 2.05, 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.19(c) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(b) (c) any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (C) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other 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, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that requires the vote of (1) all the Lenders or (2) each directly affected Lender, to the extent that such Lender is directly affected by any such amendment, modification or waiver and such Participant holds a participation in such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17 and 2.18 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b)

of this Section. To the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.19(c) as though it were a Lender.

(i) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 or 2.18 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 Borrower Representative’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 2.18 unless the Borrower Representative is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 2.18(e) as though it were a Lender.

(d) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, 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 Loans 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 Administrative Agent (in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank for such Lender, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.02(b) or this Section 9.04 to the contrary, any Farm Credit System Institution that (i) is the owner of a participation in any Commitment (including any Loans outstanding thereunder) initially in the amount of at least $10,000,000; (ii) is, by written notice to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (a “Voting Participant Notification”), designated by the selling Lender as being entitled to be accorded the rights of a voting participant hereunder (any Farm Credit System Institution

156

ATL 22026536v6

so designated, a “Voting Participant”); and (iii) receives the prior written consent of the Borrower Representative (such consent of the Borrower Representative not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and not to be required if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) and the Administrative Agent to become a Voting Participant, shall be entitled to vote for so long as such Farm Credit System Institution owns such participation and notwithstanding any subparticipation by such Farm Credit System Institution (and the voting rights of the selling Lender shall be correspondingly reduced, on a dollar for dollar basis), as if such Voting Participant were a Lender, on any matter requiring or allowing a Lender to provide or withhold its consent, or to otherwise vote on any proposed action. To be effective, each Voting Participant Notification shall, with respect to any Voting Participant, (A) state the full name, as well as all contact information required for an assignee in the Assignment and Assumption; and (B) state the dollar amount of the participation purchased. The selling Lender and the Voting Participant shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative within three Business Days of any termination of, reduction or increase in the amount of, such participation. The Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on information contained in notices delivered pursuant to this paragraph (f). The voting rights hereunder are solely for the benefit of the Voting Participants and shall not inure to any assignee or participant of a Voting Participant.

SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 9.03, 9.09 and 9.10 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. The provisions of Section 9.12 shall survive and remain in full force and effect for a period of 18 months following the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the

157

ATL 22026536v6

Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or electronic mail transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender Party and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender Party or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers or any Loan Guarantor against any of and all the Secured Obligations held by such Lender Party, irrespective of whether or not such Lender Party shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured. The applicable Lender Party shall notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of such set-off or application; provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section. The rights of each Lender Party under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender Party may have.

SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) The Loan Documents (other than those containing a contrary express choice of law provision) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof, but giving effect to Federal laws applicable to national banks.

(a) Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any U.S. Federal or New York State court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, State of New York, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such courts. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding in the courts of any jurisdiction, to the extent that such action or proceeding relates to the enforcement of rights with respect to the Collateral.

158

ATL 22026536v6

(b) Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(c) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY REQUIREMENTS OF LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Lender Parties agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors, in each case on a confidential basis (it being understood that the disclosing Lender Party shall be responsible for the foregoing persons’ compliance with this paragraph); (b) to the extent requested by any bank or other regulatory authority having jurisdiction (including any self-regulatory organization having or claiming to have jurisdiction) or oversight or in connection with any pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank or central bank permitted by Section 9.04(e); (c) to the extent required by Requirements of Law or by any subpoena or similar legal process (it being understood that the applicable Lender Party, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, shall inform the Borrower Representative reasonably promptly thereof and provide the Borrower Representative a reasonable opportunity to apply for and obtain a court order to protect the confidentiality of the relevant information); (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, 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 the same as, or substantially similar to, those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Loan Parties and their obligations or (iii) any insurer of risks hereunder (and any such Person may disclose such Information to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will agree to be bound by confidentiality obligations that are the same as, or substantially similar to, the terms set forth in this Section)); (g) with the written consent of the Borrower Representative; (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to any Lender Party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers or their representatives which is not known by any such Person to be under a duty of confidentiality with respect to the Information; (i) the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or its Securities Valuation Office or, in each case, any similar organization or nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Lender Party’s investment portfolio for purposes of rating such investment portfolio, in each case with a request for confidentiality (it being understood that any such organization or rating agency may elect not to agree with any such request, in which case the disclosing Lender Party shall incur no obligation or liability if such organization or rating agency does not maintain the confidentiality of such Information); or (j) subject to clause (d), in connection with a legal action related to this Agreement (it being understood that the applicable Lender Party, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, shall inform the Borrower Representative reasonably promptly thereof and provide the Borrower Representative a reasonable opportunity to apply for and obtain a court order to protect the confidentiality of the relevant information). For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all confidential, proprietary and non-public information received from the Borrowers relating to the Borrowers or their business, other than any such information that is available to any Lender Party on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrowers. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

EACH LENDER PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 9.12 FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND REQUIREMENTS OF LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWERS OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS

160

ATL 22026536v6

AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMPANY, THE LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER PARTY HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND REQUIREMENTS OF LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

SECTION 9.13. Several Obligations; Nonreliance; Violation of Law. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and the failure of any Lender to make any Loan or perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, neither any Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall be obligated to extend credit to the Borrowers in violation of any Requirement of Law.

SECTION 9.14. Patriot Act. The Administrative Agent and each Lender subject to the Patriot Act hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each Loan Party and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent and such Lender to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrower hereby agrees to provide, and cause each other Loan Party to provide, such information promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. Each Lender subject to the Patriot Act acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any Loan Party, its Affiliates or its agents, this Agreement, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (a) any identity verification procedures, (b) any record-keeping, (c) comparisons with government lists, (d) customer notices, or (e) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other law.

Each Lender Party hereby appoints each other Lender Party as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Lender Parties, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other Requirement of Law can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender Party (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender Party shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral

161

ATL 22026536v6

to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.

SECTION 9.17. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under Requirements of Law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with Requirements of Law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 9.18. WAIVERS OF FARM CREDIT RIGHTS. THE BORROWERS ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, TOGETHER WITH THEIR LEGAL COUNSEL, THEY HAVE REVIEWED ALL RIGHTS THAT THEY MAY OTHERWISE BE ENTITLED TO WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS UNDER THE SECTIONS OF THE AGRICULTURAL CREDIT ACT OF 1987 DESIGNATED AS 12 U.S.C. SECTIONS 2199 THROUGH 2202E AND THE IMPLEMENTING FARM CREDIT ADMINISTRATION REGULATIONS AS SET FORTH IN 12 C.F.R. SECTIONS 617.7000 THROUGH 617.7630 (INCLUDING THOSE PROVISIONS WHICH AFFORD THE BORROWERS CERTAIN RIGHTS AND IMPOSE ON THE LENDER PARTIES CERTAIN DUTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE COLLECTION OF ANY AMOUNTS OWING HEREUNDER OR THE FORECLOSURE OF THE SECURITY INTEREST OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT ON THE COLLATERAL, OR WHICH REQUIRE THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER LENDER PARTY TO DISCLOSE TO THE BORROWERS THE NATURE OF ANY SUCH RIGHTS OR DUTIES), AND THAT THEY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, INTENTIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY AND ALL SUCH RIGHTS. NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION NOR THE DELIVERY TO THE BORROWERS OF ANY SUMMARY OF ANY RIGHTS UNDER, OR ANY NOTICE PURSUANT TO, THE AGRICULTURAL CREDIT ACT OF 1987 SHALL IN ANY WAY BE DEEMED TO BE, OR BE CONSTRUED TO IN ANY WAY INDICATE, THE DETERMINATION OR AGREEMENT BY THE BORROWERS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER LENDER PARTY THAT THE AGRICULTURAL CREDIT ACT OF 1987, OR ANY RIGHTS THEREUNDER, ARE OR WILL IN FACT BE APPLICABLE TO THE BORROWERS, THE LOANS OR THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

SECTION 9.19. Bank Equity Interests. The Borrowers agree to purchase Equity Interests (the “Bank Equity Interests”) in any Farm Credit System Institution which is a Lender, as such Farm Credit System Institution may from time to time require in accordance with its bylaws and capital plans and that are applicable to borrowers generally. Each Farm Credit System Institution that is a Lender may from time to time, in its discretion reserve, sell participations under this Section on

162

ATL 22026536v6

a patronage released or on a non-patronage basis. Each party hereto acknowledges that the Farm Credit System Institutions have a statutory first Lien on all Bank Equity Interests that any Borrower may now own or hereafter acquire, which statutory Lien shall be for each applicable Farm Credit System Institution’s sole and exclusive benefit and such Bank Equity Interests shall not constitute or form a part of the Collateral.

SECTION 9.20. Amendment and Restatement of Original Credit Agreement; Confirmation of Existing Obligations. On the Effective Date, the Original Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents do not constitute a novation or termination of the “Obligations” (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement) that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date.

ARTICLE X

U.S. GUARANTY

SECTION 10.01. Guaranty. Each U.S. Loan Guarantor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Lender Parties the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Secured Obligations and all costs, expenses and other amounts that are required to be paid by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 9.03 or any similar provision in any other Loan Document (such costs and expenses, together with the Secured Obligations, collectively the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each U.S. Loan Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. All terms of this U.S. Guaranty apply to and may be enforced by or on behalf of any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of any Lender Party that extended any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 10.02. Guaranty of Payment. This U.S. Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each U.S. Loan Guarantor waives any right to require any Lender Party to xxx any Borrower, any other U.S. Loan Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (each, an “Obligated Party”), or otherwise to enforce its payment against any collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 10.03. No Discharge or Diminishment of U.S. Guaranty. (a) Except as otherwise provided for herein, the obligations of each U.S. Loan Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration, or compromise of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Obligated Party, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Obligated Party; (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which

163

ATL 22026536v6

any U.S. Loan Guarantor may have at any time against any Obligated Party, any Lender Party, or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions; or (v) any law or regulation of any jurisdiction or any other event affecting any term of a guaranteed obligation.

(a) The obligations of each U.S. Loan Guarantor hereunder are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any Requirement of Law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Obligated Party, of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof.

(b) Further, the obligations of any U.S. Loan Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of any Lender Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection, or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of any Borrower for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by any Lender Party with respect to any collateral securing any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such U.S. Loan Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any U.S. Loan Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations).

SECTION 10.04. Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by Requirements of Law, each U.S. Loan Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower or any U.S. Loan Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower or any U.S. Loan Guarantor, other than the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each U.S. Loan Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Obligated Party, or any other Person. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the Guaranteed Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such U.S. Loan Guarantor under this U.S. Guaranty except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by Requirements of Law, each U.S. Loan Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to Requirements of Law, to impair or extinguish any right of

164

ATL 22026536v6

reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any U.S. Loan Guarantor against any Obligated Party or any security.

SECTION 10.05. Rights of Subrogation. No U.S. Loan Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against any Obligated Party, or any Collateral, until the Loan Parties and the U.S. Loan Guarantors have fully performed all their obligations to the Lender Parties and no Obligation is outstanding.

SECTION 10.06. Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, each U.S. Loan Guarantor’s obligations under this U.S. Guaranty with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made and whether or not the Lender Parties are in possession of this U.S. Guaranty. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the U.S. Loan Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Lender Parties.

SECTION 10.07. Information. Each U.S. Loan Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrowers’ financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each U.S. Loan Guarantor assumes and incurs under this U.S. Guaranty, and agrees that no Lender Party shall have any duty to advise any U.S. Loan Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

SECTION 10.08. Taxes. All payments of the Guaranteed Obligations will be made by each U.S. Loan Guarantor free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any U.S. Loan Guarantor shall be required to deduct or withhold any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (a) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) each applicable Lender Party receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (b) such U.S. Loan Guarantor shall make such deductions and (iii) such U.S. Loan Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Requirements of Law.

SECTION 10.09. Maximum Liability. The provisions of this U.S. Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, Federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any U.S. Loan Guarantor under this U.S. Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such U.S. Loan Guarantor’s liability under this U.S. Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this U.S. Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the U.S. Loan Guarantors or the Lender Parties, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest

165

ATL 22026536v6

amount determined hereunder being the relevant U.S. Loan Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”). This Section with respect to the Maximum Liability of each U.S. Loan Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Lender Parties to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under Requirements of Law, and no U.S. Loan Guarantor nor any other Person or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any U.S. Loan Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under Requirements of Law. Each U.S. Loan Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each U.S. Loan Guarantor without impairing this U.S. Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the Lender Parties hereunder; provided that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any U.S. Loan Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.

SECTION 10.10. Contribution. In the event any U.S. Loan Guarantor (a “Paying Guarantor”) shall make any payment or payments under this U.S. Guaranty or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any Collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this U.S. Guaranty, each other U.S. Loan Guarantor (each a “Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to such Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Applicable Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For purposes of this Article X, each Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Applicable Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (a) such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from the Borrowers after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (b) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all U.S. Loan Guarantors hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any U.S. Loan Guarantor, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such U.S. Loan Guarantors from the Borrowers after the Effective Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any U.S. Loan Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Guaranteed Obligations (up to such U.S. Loan Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the U.S. Loan Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this U.S. Guaranty from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of both the Lender Parties and the U.S. Loan Guarantors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

SECTION 10.11. Liability Cumulative. The liability of each U.S. Loan Party as a U.S. Loan Guarantor under this Article X is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each U.S. Loan Party to the Lender Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such U.S. Loan Party is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other U.S. Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

SECTION 10.12. Common Enterprise. The successful operation and condition of each of the Loan Parties is dependent on the continued successful performance of the functions of the group of the Loan Parties as a whole and the successful operation of each of the Loan Parties is dependent on the successful performance and operation of each other Loan Party. Each Loan Party expects to derive benefit (and its board of directors or other governing body has determined that it may reasonably be expected to derive benefit), directly and indirectly, from (a) the successful operations of each of the other Loan Parties and (b) the credit extended by the Lenders to the Borrowers hereunder, both in their separate capacities and as members of the group of companies. Each Loan Party has determined that execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents to be executed by such Loan Party is within its purpose, will be of direct and indirect benefit to such Loan Party, and is in its best interest.

ARTICLE XI

THE BORROWER REPRESENTATIVE

SECTION 11.01. Appointment; Nature of Relationship. The Company is hereby appointed by each of the Borrowers as its contractual representative (herein referred to as the “Borrower Representative”) hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the Borrowers irrevocably authorizes the Borrower Representative to act as the contractual representative of such Borrower with the rights and duties expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. The Borrower Representative agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article XI. Additionally, the Borrowers hereby appoint the Borrower Representative as their agent to receive all of the proceeds of the Loans in the Funding Account(s), at which time the Borrower Representative shall promptly disburse such Loans to the appropriate Borrower. None of the Lender Parties or their respective officers, directors, agents or employees shall be liable to the Borrower Representative or any Borrower for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Borrower Representative or the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 11.01.

SECTION 11.02. Powers. The Borrower Representative shall have and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Borrower Representative by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Borrower Representative shall have no implied duties to the Borrowers, or any obligation to the Lenders Parties to take any action thereunder except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by the Borrower Representative.

SECTION 11.03. Employment of Agents. The Borrower Representative may execute any of its duties as the Borrower Representative hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through authorized officers.

SECTION 11.04. Notices. Each Borrower shall immediately notify the Borrower Representative of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder referring to this Agreement describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Borrower Representative receives such a notice, the Borrower Representative shall give prompt notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the other Lender

167

ATL 22026536v6

Parties. Any notice provided to the Borrower Representative hereunder shall constitute notice to each Borrower on the date received by the Borrower Representative.

SECTION 11.05. Successor Borrower Representative. Upon prior notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative may resign at any time, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Borrower Representative. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt written notice of such resignation to the Lender Parties.

SECTION 11.06. Execution of Loan Documents; Borrowing Base Certificate. The Borrowers hereby empower and authorize the Borrower Representative, on behalf of the Borrowers, to execute and deliver to the Lender Parties the Loan Documents and all related agreements, certificates, documents, or instruments as shall be necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of the Loan Documents, including without limitation, the Borrowing Base Certificates and the Compliance Certificates. Each Borrower agrees that any action taken by the Borrower Representative or the Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Borrower Representative of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Borrowers.

SECTION 11.07. Reporting. Each Borrower hereby agrees that such Borrower shall furnish promptly after each fiscal month (or such shorter period for which Borrowing Base Certificates shall be required pursuant to the terms hereof) to the Borrower Representative a copy of its Borrowing Base Certificate (to the extent that a Borrowing Base Period is in effect) and any other certificate or report required hereunder or requested by the Borrower Representative on which the Borrower Representative shall rely to prepare the Borrowing Base Certificates and Compliance Certificates required pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 11.08. Keepwell. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, while any Guaranteed Obligations are outstanding with respect to a transaction under a Secured Swap Agreement, each ECP Loan Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely and unconditionally undertakes, for the benefit of each Supported Loan Guarantor and the holder(s) of such Guaranteed Obligations, to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time to enable each Supported Loan Guarantor to pay such Guaranteed Obligations with respect to such transaction and to pay such funds to the holder of such Guaranteed Obligations upon the demand of either the Supported Loan Guarantor or such holder. The Loan Guarantors agree that this Section constitutes a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of the Supported Loan Guarantors for purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

SECTION 11.09. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

168

ATL 22026536v6

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.
