excess of the Applicable Interest Rate then in effect. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided under this Section 2.7 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

(b) Any remaining Obligations under the Facility shall be paid in full on the Maturity Date.

(c) The Borrower shall apply 100% (or such lesser amount necessary) of the gross proceeds of any Controlled RHI Restricted Payments received by it from time to time to repay the Obligations then outstanding, accrued or otherwise due and owing in full in accordance with Section 2.8(d).

(e) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Article 2, should any payment or prepayment of principal of or interest on the Loans or any other amount due hereunder, become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date of such payment or prepayment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a payment or prepayment of principal, interest shall be payable thereon at the rate herein specified during such extension.

SECTION 2.9. Manner of Payments.

Interest in respect of any Loan hereunder shall accrue from and including the date of such Loan to but excluding the date on which such Loan is paid.

SECTION 2.10. Taxes.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, except for penalties, interest and expenses to the extent arising from gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Administrative Agent or such Lender. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY together with the additional documentation that must be transmitted with Form W-8IMY, including the appropriate forms described in Sections 2.10(e)(i), (ii) and (iii); or

(v) any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered form or certificate (or any other form or certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose).

Any Lender that is not a Foreign Lender and has not otherwise established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is an exempt recipient (as defined in section 6049(b)(4) of the Code and the regulations thereunder) shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the Initial Date with respect to such Lender (and from time to time thereafter as prescribed by Applicable Law or upon the

request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two duly executed and properly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or applicable successor form). Each Lender (other than a Foreign Lender) shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence, invalidity or inaccuracy of any form previously delivered by such Lender. Each Lender (other than a Foreign Lender) shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time that it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered form or certification (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose).

(f) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of or any credit for any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower have paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10, it shall pay over such refund or credit to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.10 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund or credit to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(g) Each Lender agrees that when it becomes aware of the occurrence of an event that would cause the Borrower to pay any amount pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 2.10, it will notify the Borrower of such event and, to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender’s internal policies, will use it reasonable efforts to make, fund or maintain the affected Loans of such Lender through another Lending Office of such Lender if as a result thereof the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid by reason of Section 2.10(a) in respect of such Loans would be materially reduced, and if, as determined by such Lender, in its discretion, the making, funding or maintaining of such Loans through such other Lending Office would not otherwise adversely affect such Loans or such Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a failure on the part of any Lender to provide notice pursuant to this Section 2.10(g) shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation to make any payments or deductions required by Section 2.10(a).

8. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 8.1. Administration by the Administrative Agent. The general administration of the Fundamental Documents and any other documents contemplated by this Credit Agreement or any other Fundamental Document shall be by the Administrative Agent or its designees; provided, that, notwithstanding anything in this Credit Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall, except with respect to exchanging or submitting information or notices from the Borrower to the Lenders or its responsibilities under Sections 8.2 or 8.4 hereof, not act or exercise or refrain from exercising its powers or discretion hereunder or under the Fundamental Documents, the Notes or any other documents contemplated by this Credit Agreement or any other Fundamental Document except as directed by the Required Lenders in writing. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its discretion, to take or refrain from taking such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise or refrain from exercising such powers under the Fundamental Documents, the Notes and any other documents contemplated by this Credit Agreement or any other Fundamental Document as are expressly delegated by the terms hereof or thereof, as appropriate, together with all powers reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except as set forth in the Fundamental Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in any Fundamental Document, the Administrative Agent may at any time elect, prior to performing any action (or inaction) requiring the exercise of its discretion or making any determination requiring such determination, to notify the Lenders of the relevant issue and forbear from taking any such action or making any such determination until it shall have been instructed to do so by the Required Lenders.

SECTION 8.2. Payments. As between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, any amounts received by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Fundamental Documents, the application of which is not otherwise provided for in Article 2 hereof, shall be applied, first, to pay accrued but unpaid interest on the Loans in accordance with the amount of outstanding Loans owed to each Lender and second, to pay the principal balance outstanding on the Loans (with amounts payable on the principal balance outstanding on the Loans in accordance with the amount of outstanding Loans owed to each Lender), and to pay any other obligations then due under this Credit Agreement. All amounts to be paid to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be credited to that Lender, after collection by the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in such Lender’s correspondent account with the Administrative Agent, or as such Lender and the Administrative Agent shall from time to time agree.

SECTION 8.3. Sharing of Setoffs and Cash Collateral. Each of the Lenders agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s Lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower (including, but not limited to, a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim and received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law) or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of its Loans as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Loans is proportionately less than the unpaid portion of Loans of any of the other Lenders (a) it shall promptly purchase at par (and shall be deemed to have thereupon purchased) from such other Lenders a participation in the Loans of such other Lenders, so that the aggregate

unpaid principal amount of each of the Lender’s Loans shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans then outstanding and as the principal amount of its Loans prior to the obtaining of such payment was to the principal amount of all Loans outstanding prior to the obtaining of such payment, and (b) such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that the Lenders share such payment pro rata. If all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the Lender which originally received such excess payment, such purchase (or portion thereof) shall be canceled and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery. The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender or Lenders holding (or deemed to be holding) a participation in a Note may exercise any and all rights of banker’s Lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender or Lenders as fully as if such Lender or Lenders held a Note and was the original obligee thereon, in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 8.4. Notice to the Lenders. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower of any communication calling for an action on the part of the Lenders, or upon notice to the Administrative Agent of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent will in turn immediately inform the other Lenders in writing (which shall include facsimile communications) of the nature of such communication or of the Event of Default, as the case may be.

SECTION 8.5. Liability of the Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent, when acting on behalf of the Lenders, may execute any of its duties under this Credit Agreement or the other Fundamental Documents by or through its officers, agents or employees and neither the Administrative Agent nor its officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Lenders or any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, nor be responsible to the Lenders or to any of them for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment, or for any loss, unless the same shall happen through its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent and its respective directors, officers, agents, and employees shall in no event be liable to the Lenders or to any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it pursuant to instructions received by it from the Required Lenders or in reliance upon the advice of counsel selected by it with reasonable care. Without limiting the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective directors, officers, employees, or agents shall be responsible to any of the Lenders for the due execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness, sufficiency, or enforceability of, or for any statement, warranty, or representation in, this Credit Agreement, any other Fundamental Document or any related agreement, document or order, or shall be required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of the terms, conditions, covenants, or agreements of this Credit Agreement, any other Fundamental Document, or any related agreement or document.

(b) Neither the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as agent for the Lenders), nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall have any responsibility to the Borrower on account of the failure or delay in performance or breach by any of the Lenders (other than JPM Mezzanine Capital, LLC) of any of such Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement, the other Fundamental Documents or any related agreement or document or in

connection herewith or therewith. No Lender nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall have any responsibility to the Borrower on account of the failure or delay in performance or breach by any other Lender of such other Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement, the other Fundamental Documents or any related agreement or document or in connection herewith or therewith.

(c) The Administrative Agent, in its capacity as agent for the Lenders hereunder shall be entitled to rely on any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine or correct and to have been signed or sent by a Person or Persons believed by it to be the proper Person or Persons, and it shall be entitled to rely on advice of legal counsel, independent public accountants, and other professional advisers and experts selected by it with reasonable care.

SECTION 8.6. Reimbursement and Indemnification. Each of the Lenders agrees (i) to reimburse the Administrative Agent for such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any expenses and fees incurred for the benefit of the Lenders under the Fundamental Documents, including, without limitation, counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, and any other expense incurred in connection with the operations or enforcement thereof not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower and (ii) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents, on demand, in accordance with such Lender’s Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, it or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of any of the Fundamental Documents or any related agreement or document, or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under any Fundamental Documents or any related agreement or document, to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower (except such as shall result from its gross negligence or willful misconduct). To the extent indemnification payments made by the Lenders pursuant to this Section 8.6 are subsequently recovered by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will promptly refund such previously paid indemnity payments to the Lenders.

SECTION 8.7. Rights of Administrative Agent. It is understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall have the same duties, rights and powers as a Lender hereunder (including the right to give such instructions) as any of the other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers, as well as its rights and powers under other agreements and instruments to which it is or may be party, and engage in other transactions with the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof, as though it were not the Administrative Agent of the Lenders under this Credit Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents.

SECTION 8.8. Independent Investigation by Lenders. Each of the Lenders acknowledges that it has decided to enter into this Credit Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents and to make the Loans hereunder based on its own analysis of the transactions contemplated hereby and of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and agrees that the Administrative Agent shall not bear any responsibility therefor.

SECTION 8.9. Agreement of Required Lenders. Except as set forth in Section 9.10 hereof, upon any occasion requiring or permitting an approval, consent, waiver, election or other action on the part of the Lenders, action shall be taken by the Administrative Agent for and on behalf of, or for the benefit of, all Lenders upon the direction of the Required Lenders and any such action shall be binding on all Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, any Xxxxx Affiliated Lender shall have no right to vote on any matters under this Credit Agreement except where the vote of all Lenders or all affected Lenders is required as set forth in Section 9.10. No amendment, modification, consent or waiver shall be effective except in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.10 hereof.

SECTION 8.10. Notice of Transfer. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat any Lender which is a party to this Credit Agreement as the owner of such Lender’s respective portions of the Loans for all purposes, unless and until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof executed by any such Lender shall have been received by the Administrative Agent and become effective in accordance with Section 9.3 hereof.

SECTION 8.11. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving ten days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and shall resign upon the written request of the Required Lenders, but such resignation shall not become effective until acceptance by a successor agent of its appointment pursuant hereto, provided, however, that any resignation by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. from its position as Administrative Agent shall become effective no later than thirty (30) days from the delivery of such a resignation. Upon any such resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent shall consult with the Borrower and shall promptly appoint a successor agent from among the Lenders; provided, that in the case of a resignation at the Administrative Agent’s option, such replacement is reasonably acceptable (as evidenced in writing) to the Required Lenders and, in any case, is reasonably acceptable to the Borrower; provided, however, that (a) such approval by the Borrower shall not be required at any time when a Default or Event of Default is continuing and (b) in no case shall any “hedge fund”, as such term is currently understood, become a Successor Administrative Agent. If no successor agent shall have been so appointed by the retiring Administrative Agent and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring agent’s giving of notice of resignation, the Required Lenders may appoint a successor agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor agent, such successor agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Credit Agreement, the other Fundamental Documents and any other credit documentation. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 8 and Article 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Credit Agreement.

All statements in any such certificate or other instrument shall constitute representations and warranties by the Borrower hereunder.

SECTION 9.3. Successors and Assigns; Loan Sales; Participations.

(a) Whenever in this Credit Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party; provided, however, that the Borrower may not assign its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and all Lenders, and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of the Borrower which are contained in this Credit Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

(b) Each of the Lenders, other than any Xxxxx Affiliated Lender, may (but only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and, at any time prior to the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default under Section 7(b), (c), (h) or (i) with the prior written consent of the Borrower, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) assign to an Eligible Assignee any portion of its interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of all Loans at the time owing to it and the Notes, if any, held by it); provided, however, that (i) each assignment shall be of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the assigning Lender’s interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, (ii) each assignment shall be in a minimum principal amount equal to $1,000,000; provided that, such minimum amount shall not apply to assignments by Lenders who then hold Loans in a principal amount of less than $1,000,000 in the aggregate so long as the entirety of their remaining Loans are being assigned in full, (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register (as defined below), an Assignment and Assumption, together with the assigning Lender’s original Note if one has been issued to the Lender pursuant to Section 2.4 hereof and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 to be paid to the Administrative Agent by the assigning Lender or the assignee and (iv) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an “Administrative Questionnaire” in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its related parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and Applicable Laws, including federal and state securities laws; provided, further, that JPM Mezzanine Capital, LLC or its Affiliates may not, without the prior written consent of Borrower, assign all or a portion of its or their interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement in an amount that would result in JPM Mezzanine Capital, LLC and its Affiliates, collectively, and without aggregation with any other Lender or Lenders, ceasing to constitute the “Required Lenders” under this Credit Agreement at any time that any Obligations under this Credit Agreement have accrued or remain outstanding (for the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate amount of all interest that the Borrower may pay-in-kind in accordance with this Credit

Agreement over the term of this Facility shall be deemed to have been paid-in-kind in determining the amount of Loans that JPM Mezzanine Capital, LLC or its Affiliates may assign hereunder without the prior written consent of the Borrower). For the avoidance of doubt, any Xxxxx Affiliated Lender may not, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, assign or participate its interest in the Loans to any Person except to one of its Affiliates that agrees in writing to be bound by the restrictions on voting rights applicable to such Xxxxx Affiliated Lender set forth in Section 9.10(a) hereof and the definition of “Required Lenders” hereunder. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, which effective date shall not (unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent) be earlier than five Business Days after the date of acceptance and recording by the Administrative Agent, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other Fundamental Documents and shall be bound by the provisions hereof, and (y) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement except that, notwithstanding such assignment, any rights and remedies available to the Borrower for any breaches by such assigning Lender of its obligations hereunder while a Lender shall be preserved after such assignment and such Lender shall not be relieved of any liability to the Borrower due to any such breach. In the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision herein otherwise requiring the consent of the Borrower, each Lender, may at any time make an assignment of its interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to any Eligible Assignee that is (i) an Affiliate of such Lender, (ii) a Person, or Affiliate of a Person, that manages such Lender (a “Related Fund”), (iii) another Lender hereunder or (iv) an Approved Fund; provided, that a Xxxxx Affiliated Lender may only make an assignment under this Section 9.3(c) if the Xxxxx Affiliated Lender’s assignee agrees in writing to be bound by the restrictions on voting rights applicable to such Xxxxx Affiliated Lender set forth in Section 9.10(a) hereof and the definition of “Required Lenders” hereunder. Further, any assignment under this Section 9.3(c) to any Affiliate of the assigning Lender, a Related Fund or any other Lender hereunder shall not be subject to the requirement of Section 9.3(b)(ii) that the amount of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each assignment be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000, and any such assignment to any Affiliate of the assigning Lender shall not release the assigning Lender of its remaining obligations hereunder, if any.

(d) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than the representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby and that such interest is free and clear of any adverse claim, the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Credit Agreement or any other Fundamental Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Fundamental

Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; (ii) such assignor Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower or the performance or observance by the Borrower of any of its obligations under the Fundamental Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Credit Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Sections 5.1(a) and 5.1(b) (if such financial statements shall have theretofore been delivered) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (iv) such assignee agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Credit Agreement or any other Fundamental Document; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as the agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Credit Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will be bound by the provisions of this Credit Agreement and will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(e) The Administrative Agent (acting for this purpose on behalf of the Borrower) shall maintain at its address at which notices are to be given to it pursuant to Section 9.1 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of the Fundamental Documents. Any assignment of any Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(f) Subject to the foregoing, upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee together with the assigning Lender’s original Notes, if applicable, and the processing and recordation fee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Assumption has been completed, is in the form of Exhibit C hereto, and has been, if applicable, consented to in writing by the Borrower, (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption, and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register. Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the notice and upon the request of the assignee, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, in exchange for the surrendered Note (if any), a new Note payable to such assignee in an amount equal to the Loan owing to it assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption and if the assigning Lender has retained a portion of the Loan owing to it hereunder and so requests, a new Note to the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the portion of the Loan owing to it and retained hereunder. Any such new Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the surrendered Note, if any, and shall otherwise be substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto.

(g) Each of the Lenders, other than any Xxxxx Affiliated Lender, may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such participant shall not be granted any voting rights or any right to control the vote of such Lender under this Credit Agreement, except with respect to proposed reductions in interest rates or fees, increases in the amounts of Loans made hereunder, final maturity of any Loan, and fees (in each case, only as applicable to such participant), (iii) any such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iv) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the cost protection provisions contained in Section 2.8 and Section 2.10 (subject to the last sentence of this Section 9.3(g)) hereof but a participant shall not be entitled to receive pursuant to such provisions an amount larger than its share of the amount to which the Lender granting such participation would have been entitled to receive, and (v) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s and its participants’ rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. No holder of a participating interest shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.10, unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such holder and such holder agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.10(e) and Section 2.10(f) as though it were a Lender.

(h) A Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.3, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower furnished to the Administrative Agent or such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower (provided that such proposed assignee or participant agrees to hold such information confidential in accordance with Section 9.17 hereof).

(i) Any assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section 9.3 shall constitute an amendment of the Schedule of Commitments as of the effective date of such assignment without any other further action required.

(j) The Borrower consents that any Lender may at any time and from time to time pledge or otherwise grant a security interest in any Loan or in any Note evidencing the Loans (or any part thereof) to (i) any Federal Reserve Bank or (ii) in the case of any Lender that is not a commercial bank, savings and loan association or savings bank, to any holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Lender including to any trustee for, or any other representative of, such holders; and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or grant of security interest under this Section 9.3(j) shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 9.4. Expenses; Documentary Taxes. Subject to the limitation agreed between the Borrower and the Arranger and the Administrative Agent for expenses accrued through the Closing Date, whether or not the transactions hereby contemplated shall be consummated, the Borrower agrees to pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket

expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Arranger in connection with, or growing out of, the performance of due diligence, the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, waiver or modification and administration of this Credit Agreement and any other documentation contemplated hereby, the making of the Loans or any Fundamental Document, including but not limited to, the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and reasonable internally allocated charges of audit examinations of the Administrative Agent in connection with the administration of this Credit Agreement (provided that so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall not be responsible for the cost of more than one (1) such audit examination during any calendar year) and the reasonable fees and disbursements of Xxxxxx, Xxxxx & Xxxxxxx, LLP, counsel for the Administrative Agent and if necessary, one other local counsel per jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent shall retain, and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in the enforcement or protection (as distinguished from administration) of the rights and remedies of the Lenders in connection with this Credit Agreement, the Notes, or the other Fundamental Documents, or as a result of any transaction, action or non-action arising from any of the foregoing, including, the fees and disbursements of a single counsel for the Administrative Agent or the Lenders. Such payments shall be made on the date this Credit Agreement is executed by the Borrower and thereafter on demand. The Borrower agrees that it shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from and hold them harmless against any documentary taxes, assessments or charges made by any Governmental Authority by reason of the execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement or the Notes. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the Borrower’s obligations under this Section 9.4 shall not be duplicative of any amounts paid by Borrower under any other provision of this Credit Agreement. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans.

SECTION 9.5. Indemnity. The Borrower agrees (a) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and the Lenders, and their respective directors, officers, employees, controlling persons, affiliates and agents (each an “Indemnified Party”) (to the full extent permitted by Applicable Law) from and against any and all demands, losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related out-of-pocket expenses (including liabilities for penalties and reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel plus one counsel per local jurisdiction) incurred by any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of, any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Arranger is a party thereto) related to the entering into and/or performance of any Fundamental Document or the use of the proceeds of any Loans hereunder or the consummation of the transaction contemplated in any Fundamental Document (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses of an Indemnified Party to the extent they are found in a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have been incurred by reason of the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or breach of any Fundamental Document by such Indemnified Party or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents and controlling persons). If any proceeding, including any governmental investigation, shall be instituted involving any Indemnified Party, in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Borrower, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing. The foregoing indemnity agreement includes any costs incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with any action or proceeding in connection with which any officer or employee of the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or the Lenders is called as a witness or

deponent, including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and disbursements of outside counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Arranger and any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or the Lenders in appearing as a witness or in otherwise complying with legal process served upon them. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 9.5 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and shall inure to the benefit of any Lender and its associated Indemnified Parties notwithstanding the assignment by such Lender of all of its Loans hereunder.

If the Borrower shall fail to do any act or thing which it has covenanted to do hereunder or under a Fundamental Document, which failure would cause a Default or Event of Default to occur hereunder, or any representation or warranty of the Borrower shall be breached, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach and there shall be added to the Obligations hereunder the cost or expense incurred by the Administrative Agent in so doing, and any and all amounts expended by the Administrative Agent in taking any such action shall be repayable to it upon its demand therefor and shall bear interest at a rate per annum of 2% in excess of the rate then in effect for Loans from time to time in effect from the date advanced to the date of repayment.

SECTION 9.6. CHOICE OF LAW. THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WHICH ARE APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED WHOLLY WITHIN SUCH STATE AND, IN THE CASE OF PROVISIONS RELATING TO INTEREST RATES, ANY APPLICABLE LAW OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

SECTION 9.7. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES, AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE), ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE, CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, ANY OTHER FUNDAMENTAL DOCUMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER THEREOF, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE. THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INFORMED BY THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION CONSTITUTE A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT UPON WHICH SUCH OTHER PARTIES HAVE RELIED, ARE RELYING AND WILL RELY IN ENTERING INTO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT AND ANY OTHER FUNDAMENTAL DOCUMENT. ANY PARTY MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 9.7 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE BORROWER TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY.

SECTION 9.8. WAIVER WITH RESPECT TO DAMAGES. THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ARRANGER NOR ANY LENDER HAS ANY FIDUCIARY RELATIONSHIP WITH, OR FIDUCIARY DUTY TO, THE BORROWER, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION

WITH THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER FUNDAMENTAL DOCUMENT AND THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ARRANGER AND THE LENDERS, ON THE ONE HAND, AND THE BORROWER, ON THE OTHER HAND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH IS SOLELY THAT OF DEBTOR AND CREDITOR. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE BORROWER SHALL NOT ASSERT, AND HEREBY WAIVES, ANY CLAIMS AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ARRANGER AND THE LENDERS 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 CREDIT AGREEMENT, ANY FUNDAMENTAL DOCUMENT, ANY AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

SECTION 9.9. No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder, under the Notes or any other Fundamental Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.

SECTION 9.10. Amendments, etc.

(a) No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Credit Agreement or any Fundamental Document (except to the extent expressly contemplated herein or therein), and no consent to any departure by the Borrower herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and acknowledged and agreed to by the Borrower and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that (A) no such modification, amendment, waiver or consent shall, without the written consent of all Lenders, (i) amend or modify any provision of this Credit Agreement which provides for the unanimous consent or approval of the Lenders, (ii) subordinate the Obligations hereunder to other Indebtedness, (iii) amend the definition of “Required Lenders” to decrease the percentages of Lenders referred to therein, (iv) amend or modify this Section 9.10(a), (B) no such modification, amendment, waiver or consent shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender or (ii) alter the final scheduled maturity or principal amount of any Loan, or decrease the rate of interest payable thereon, or delay the fixed scheduled maturity of any payment required to be made under this Credit Agreement, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender so affected and (C) no such modification, amendment, waiver or consent shall amend Section 8.1 hereof without the written consent of the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything in this Credit Agreement to the contrary, any Xxxxx Affiliated Lender and its assignees shall be treated as a Lender for purposes of the proviso in the first sentence of this Section 9.10(a). No notice to or demand on the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. Each holder of a Note shall be bound by any amendment, modification, waiver or consent authorized as provided herein, whether or not such Note shall have been marked to indicate such amendment, modification, waiver or consent and any consent by any holder of such Note shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring such Note, whether or not such Note is so marked.

(b) If any Lender (i) requests compensation under Sections 2.8(b) or 2.10 (ii) defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort and 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 9.3), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement to another Lender or an Eligible Assignee which shall assume such obligations and which accepts such assignment; provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts then payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any payments required to be made pursuant to Sections 2.8(b) or 2.10, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments or rate of interest thereafter. No Lender shall 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 Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(c) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender affected thereby,” the consent of the Lenders holding at least 66²/₃% of the aggregate principal amount of Loans then outstanding, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as an Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Credit Agreement, provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another Lender or Eligible Assignee, which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in each’s sole and absolute discretion, 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 Credit 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 Section 9.3, and (ii) such Non-Consenting Lender shall receive in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts then payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), including, without limitation, payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Section 2.10 hereof, and (2) an amount from the Borrower, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 2.8(b) had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender.

SECTION 9.11. Severability. Any provision of this Credit Agreement or of the Notes which is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.12. SERVICE OF PROCESS; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THE BORROWER (THE “SUBMITTING PARTY”) HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK IN NEW YORK COUNTY AND TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, FOR THE PURPOSES OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, ANY OTHER FUNDAMENTAL DOCUMENT AND THE SUBJECT MATTER THEREOF.
