(g) Article XI of the Existing Credit Agreement is amended by adding a new Section 11.22: 11.22. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): (a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support. (b) As used in this Section 11.22, the following terms have the following meanings: “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party. 4

“Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b). “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable. “QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D). (h) Section 10.06 of the Existing Credit Agreement is amended by adding the following sentence after the period of the last sentence of such section: “Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.06, upon written notice from the Administrative Agent of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower Agent and fifteen (15) days after the repayment in full of the Tranche A Term Loans and related Obligations (or arrangements therefore satisfactory to BMO in its sole discretion), BMO shall be automatically discharged from all of its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent and Xxxxxxx Associates, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, or one of its Affiliates or designees shall be vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Administrative Agent; provided that, during the fifteen (15) day period described above BMO shall retain solely its duties and obligations relating to matters of perfection in the Collateral.” Section 3. Representations and Warranties of the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties represent and warrant to the Term Administrative Agent and the Lenders that as of the First Amendment Effective Date: 3.01 each of the representations and warranties set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement and in the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all respects (or in all material respects for such representations and warranties that are not by their terms already qualified as to materiality) as of the date hereof, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all respects (or in all material respects for such representations and warranties that are not by their terms already qualified as to materiality) as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes of this Section 3.01, (i) the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.05(a) and (c) of the Amended Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clause (a) of Section 7.01 of the Amended Credit Agreement and (ii) the representations and warranties contained in Section 6.05(b) of the Amended Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to clause (b) of Section 7.01 of the Amended Credit Agreement; and 3.02 both immediately before and after giving effect to this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or would result therefrom.
