WHEREAS, the Borrower desires to effect certain additional amendments and modification to the Credit Agreement, as agreed to by the Required Lenders;

WHEREAS, each Lender under the Credit Agreement immediately prior to the 2018 Refinancing Amendment Effective Date (collectively, the “Existing Term Loan Lenders”) that executes and delivers a consent to this Refinancing Amendment in the form of the “Lender Consent” attached hereto as Annex I (each, a “Term Lender Consent”) and selects Option A thereunder (the “Continuing Term Lenders”) thereby agrees to the terms and conditions of this Refinancing Amendment;

WHEREAS, each Existing Term Lender that executes and delivers a Term Lender Consent and selects Option B thereunder (the “Non-Continuing Term Lenders” and, together with the Continuing Term Lenders, the “Consenting Term Lenders”) thereby agrees to the terms and conditions of this Refinancing Amendment and agrees that it shall execute, or shall be deemed to have executed, a counterpart of the Assignment and Acceptance substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex II (the “Assignment and Acceptance”) and shall in accordance therewith sell and assign all of its Existing Term Loans to JPMorgan as assignee (in such capacity, the “Replacement Lender” and, together with the Consenting Term Lenders, each a “2018 Term Loan Lender”), as further set forth in this Refinancing Amendment;

WHEREAS, the parties hereto have agreed to amend the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents as hereinafter provided;

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Each reference to “hereof”, “hereunder”, “herein” and “hereby” and each other similar reference and each reference to “this Agreement” and each other similar reference contained in the Credit Agreement shall, after the 2018 Refinancing Amendment Effective Date, refer to the Credit Agreement as amended by the Credit Agreement Amendments (as defined below) pursuant to this Refinancing Amendment (the “Amended Credit Agreement”).

(b) As used in this Refinancing Amendment, “2018 Refinancing Amendment Effective Date” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 7 hereof.

By executing a Term Lender Consent and selecting Option B, each Non-Continuing Term Lender shall be deemed to have executed a counterpart to the Assignment and Acceptance to give effect, solely upon the consent and acceptance by the Replacement Lender, to the assignment described in the immediately preceding sentence.

(c) Non-Consenting Term Lenders. The Borrower hereby gives notice to each Non-Consenting Term Lender that, upon receipt of Term Lender Consents from Existing Term Loan Lenders sufficient to constitute the Required Lenders immediately prior to the 2018 Refinancing Amendment Effective Date, if such Non-Consenting Term Lender has not executed and delivered a Term Lender Consent on or prior to the Consent Deadline, such Non-Consenting Term Lender shall, pursuant to Section 5.10(b) of the Credit Agreement, execute or be deemed to have executed a counterpart of the Assignment and Acceptance and shall in accordance therewith sell and assign its Existing Term Loans to the Replacement Lender as specified in the Assignment and Acceptance. Pursuant to the Assignment and Acceptance, each Non-Consenting Term Lender shall sell and assign the entire outstanding principal amount of its Existing Term Loans as set forth in Schedule I to the Assignment and Acceptance, as such Schedule is completed by the Administrative Agent on or prior to the 2018 Refinancing Amendment Effective Date, to the Replacement Lender under such Assignment and Acceptance, solely upon the consent and acceptance by the Replacement Lender. The Replacement Lender shall be deemed to have consented to this Refinancing Amendment with respect to such purchased Existing Term Loans at the time of such assignment.

(d) 2018 Term Loan Commitments. Each Continuing Term Lender that executed and delivered a Term Lender Consent and the Replacement Lender shall become party to the Credit Agreement as a “Lender”, and the commitments of each Continuing Term Lender continued under the Amended Credit Agreement and of the Replacement Lender shall constitute “2018 Term Loan Commitments”.

(a) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office prior to 11:00 a.m. (Central time) (i) at least three Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of the Borrowing of Term Loans if all or any of such Term Loans are to be initially LIBOR Loans (provided that for the Borrowing of 2017 Refinancing Term Loans, such prior written notice of LIBOR Loans may be delivered at least one Business Day prior to the date of such Borrowing), and (ii) prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) on the date of the Borrowing of Term Loans if all such Term Loans are to be ABR Loans.

In each such case, the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of any such telephonic notice.

Section 2.04. Disbursement of Funds. (a) Each Lender shall make the amount of its Term Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. (Central time) on the Business Day specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article VI and Article VII, the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (1) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of JPMorgan with the amount of such funds or (2) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of ABR Loans, prior to 12:00 noon (Central time) on the date of such 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 Section 2.04 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of ABR Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.04) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the 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 Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.04 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the Borrowing set forth in Article VI are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender on demand, without interest.

(d) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Term Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 13.07 are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 13.07 on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 13.07.

(e) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

Section 2.05. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, on the Term Loan Maturity Date, the then-unpaid Term Loans made to the Borrower.

(c) In the event that any New Term Loans are made after the ~~2017~~2018 Refinancing Amendment Effective Date, such New Term Loans shall, subject to Section 2.14(d) or Section 2.15, as applicable, be repaid by the Borrower thereof in the amounts (each, a “New Term Loan Repayment Amount”) and on the dates (each a “New Repayment Date”) set forth in the applicable Joinder Agreement.

(d) The Borrowings made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c), as agent for the Borrower, in each case in the Ordinary Course of Business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Borrowings made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, payable to the order of such Lender, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

(e) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 2.05(d), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Section 2.05(d), shall be conclusive evidence, absent manifest error, of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, such account or accounts, of such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents; provided, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in such account or accounts shall not limit the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

Section 2.06. Conversions and Continuations. (a) The Borrower shall have the option on any Business Day to convert all or a portion equal to at least the Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans made to the Borrower (as applicable) of one Type into a Borrowing or Borrowings of another Type and the Borrower shall have the option on any Business Day to continue the outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR Loans as LIBOR Loans for an additional Interest Period on the last Business Day of the existing Interest Period, provided that (i) no partial conversion of LIBOR Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of LIBOR Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount, (ii) ABR Loans may not be converted into LIBOR Loans if a Default or Event of Default is in existence on the date of the conversion and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversion, (iii) LIBOR Loans may not be continued as LIBOR Loans for an additional Interest Period if an Event of Default is in existence on the date of the proposed continuation and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation and (iv) Borrowings resulting from conversions pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall be limited in number as provided in Section 2.02. Each such conversion or continuation shall be effected by the Borrower by giving the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office written notice (such notice, a “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) or telephonic notice confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation prior to 11:00 a.m. (Central time) (x) at least three Business Days’ in the case of conversion or continuation of LIBOR Loans and (y) on the same Business Day in the case of a conversion into ABR Loans, which Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall specify the Term Loans to be so converted or continued, the Type of Term Loans to be converted or continued into and, if such Term Loans are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of the proposed conversion or continuation affecting any of its Term Loans, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters covered by the related Notice of Borrowing, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to ABR Loans described in Section 2.06(b).

(b) If any Event of Default is in existence at the time of any proposed continuation of any LIBOR Loans and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation, such LIBOR Loans shall be automatically converted on the last day of the current Interest Period into ABR Loans. If upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of LIBOR Loans, the Borrower has failed to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable thereto as provided in paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue such Borrowing of LIBOR Loans into a Borrowing of ABR Loans, effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for LIBOR Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of the LIBOR Rate by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. At any time that ABR Loans are outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of any change in JPMorgan’s prime rate used in determining the ABR promptly following the public announcement of such change.

Section 2.07. Pro Rata Borrowings. Each Borrowing of Term Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their then-applicable Term Loan Commitments. Each Borrowing of New Term Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their then applicable New Term Loan Commitments. It is understood that (a) no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder and (b) other than as expressly provided herein with respect to a Defaulting Lender, failure by a Lender to perform any of its obligations under any of the Credit Documents shall not release any Person from performance of its obligation under any Credit Document.

Section 2.08. Interest. (a) The unpaid principal amount of each ABR Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Applicable ABR Margin plus the ABR in effect from time to time.

(b) The unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Applicable LIBOR Margin in effect from time to time plus the relevant LIBOR Rate.

(c) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii) If any amount (other than principal of any Loan) payable by the Borrower under any Credit Document is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(iii) While any Event of Default under Section 11.01 exists, the Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Laws.

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

(v) Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.08 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 Administrative Agent or any Lender.

(d) Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the date of any Borrowing to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof and shall be payable (i) in respect of each ABR Loan, quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December, (ii) in respect of each LIBOR Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three-month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period, (iii) in respect of each Loan (except, other than in the case of prepayments, any ABR Loan), on any prepayment date (on the amount prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand.

(e) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 5.05.

(f) The Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, shall promptly notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

(g) Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

Section 2.09. Interest Periods. At the time the Borrower gives a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into or continuation as, a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 11:00 a.m. (Central time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, the Borrower shall have the right to elect by giving the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) the Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower be a one, two, three, six or if available to all the Lenders as determined by the Lenders in good faith based on prevailing market conditions, a nine or twelve month period.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above:

(a) the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of LIBOR Loans shall commence on the date of such Borrowing (including the date of any conversion from a Borrowing of ABR Loans) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

(b) if any Interest Period relating to a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month or begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period;

(c) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day, unless, in the case of a LIBOR Loan, such Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day; and

(d) the Borrower shall not be entitled to elect any Interest Period in respect of any LIBOR Loan if such Interest Period would extend beyond the applicable maturity date of such Loan.

Section 2.10. Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy; Illegality; Inability to Determine Costs.

(a) Change in Law. If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (e) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the interbank LIBOR market any other condition, cost or expense affecting any Term Loan or Credit Document;

and the result thereof shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered, in each case, in accordance with Section 5.05.

(b) Capital Adequacy. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital, liquidity or leverage requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or holding company’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement, or such Lender’s Commitments or of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) to a level below that which such Lender or holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s and holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for any such reduction suffered, in each case, in accordance with Section 5.05.

(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 LIBOR Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR 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, (i) on notice thereof by such Lender to the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue affected LIBOR Loans or to convert ABR Loans to affected LIBOR Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining ABR Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate component of the ABR, the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBOR Rate component of the ABR, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon delivery of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, prepay or, if applicable, convert all affected LIBOR Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans (the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the LIBOR Rate component of the ABR), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day, or, if earlier, the date specified by the Lender in the demand delivered to the Borrower (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law), if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute ABR applicable to such Lender without reference to the LIBOR Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. If any Lender invokes this Section 2.10(c), such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent when the conditions giving rise to such action no longer exist provided, however, that such Lender shall have no liability to the Borrower or to any other Person for its failure to provide such notice.

(d) Inability to Determine Rates. (A) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Borrowing of a LIBOR Loan:

Inability to Determine Rates. If(i) the Administrative Agent determines, or ~~the~~ ~~Required~~ ~~Lenders~~ ~~notify~~ ~~the~~ ~~Administrative~~ ~~Agent,~~ in ~~each~~ ~~case~~ ~~for~~ ~~any~~ ~~reason~~ in ~~connection~~ ~~with~~ a ~~request~~ ~~for~~ a ~~Borrowing~~ ~~of,~~ or ~~conversion~~ to or ~~continuation~~ ~~of,~~ a ~~LIBOR~~ ~~Loan~~ ~~that~~ ~~(i)~~ ~~deposits~~ or ~~bankers~~’ ~~acceptances~~ ~~are~~ ~~not~~ ~~being~~ ~~offered~~ to ~~with~~ ~~respect~~ to ~~LIBOR,~~ ~~banks~~ in ~~the~~ ~~London~~ ~~interbank~~ ~~market,~~ ~~for~~ ~~the~~ ~~applicable~~ ~~amount~~ ~~and~~ ~~Interest~~ ~~Period~~ of ~~such~~ ~~LIBOR~~ ~~Loan,~~ ~~(ii)~~ (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ~~determining~~ascertaining the LIBOR Rate ~~for~~ ~~the~~ ~~requested~~ ~~Interest~~ ~~Period~~ ~~with~~ ~~respect~~ to a ~~proposed~~ ~~LIBOR~~ ~~Loan~~ or in ~~connection~~ ~~with~~ an ~~existing~~ or ~~proposed~~ ~~ABR~~ ~~Loan~~ (including, without limitation, because the LIBOR ~~rate~~ ~~published~~ by ~~Reuters~~Screen Rate is not available or ~~not~~ published on a current basis), for such Interest Period; or~~(iii)~~

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the LIBOR Rate for ~~any~~ ~~requested~~such Interest Period ~~with~~ ~~respect~~ to a ~~proposed~~ ~~LIBOR~~ ~~Loan~~ ~~does~~will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of ~~funding such Term Loan, then the Administrative Agent~~ ~~will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter~~, ~~subject~~ to ~~clause~~ ~~(III)~~ of ~~Section~~ ~~14.01,~~ ~~(x)~~ ~~the~~ ~~obligation~~ of ~~the~~ ~~Lenders~~ to ~~make~~ or ~~maintain~~ ~~affected~~ ~~LIBOR~~ ~~Loans~~ ~~shall~~ be ~~suspended,~~ ~~and~~ ~~(y)~~ in ~~the~~ ~~event~~ of amaking or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (x) any Notice of Conversion or Continuation that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a LIBOR Loan shall be ineffective and (y) if any Notice of Borrowing requests a LIBOR Loan, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Loan.

~~(d)~~ ~~determination~~ ~~described~~ in ~~the~~ ~~preceding~~ ~~sentence~~ ~~with~~ ~~respect~~ to ~~the~~ ~~LIBOR~~ ~~Rate~~ ~~component~~ of ~~the~~ ~~ABR,~~ ~~the~~ ~~utilization~~ of ~~the~~ ~~ABR~~ ~~component~~ in ~~determining~~ ~~the~~ ~~ABR~~ ~~shall~~ be ~~suspended,~~ in ~~each~~ ~~case~~ ~~until~~ ~~the~~ ~~Administrative~~ ~~Agent~~ ~~(upon~~ ~~instruction~~ by ~~Required~~ ~~Lenders)~~ ~~revokes~~ ~~such~~ ~~notice.~~ ~~Upon~~ ~~receipt~~ of ~~such~~ ~~notice,~~ ~~the~~ ~~Borrower~~ ~~may~~ ~~revoke~~ ~~any~~ ~~pending~~ ~~request~~ ~~for~~ a ~~Borrowing~~ ~~of,~~ ~~conversion~~ to or ~~continuation~~ of ~~LIBOR~~ ~~Loan~~ ~~or,~~ ~~failing~~ ~~that,~~ ~~any~~ ~~such~~ ~~pending~~ ~~(or~~ ~~future)~~ ~~request~~ ~~will~~ be ~~deemed~~ to ~~have~~ ~~been~~ a ~~request~~ ~~for~~ an ~~ABR~~ ~~Loan.~~ If ~~any~~ ~~Lender~~ ~~invokes~~ ~~this~~ ~~Section~~ ~~2.10(d),~~ ~~such~~ ~~Lender~~ ~~shall~~ ~~use~~ ~~reasonable~~ ~~efforts~~ to ~~notify~~ ~~the~~ ~~Borrower~~ ~~and~~ ~~the~~ ~~Administrative~~ ~~Agent~~ ~~when~~ ~~the~~ ~~conditions~~ ~~giving~~ ~~rise~~ to ~~such~~ ~~action~~ no ~~longer~~ ~~exist,~~ ~~provided,~~ ~~however,~~ ~~that~~ ~~such~~ ~~Lender~~ ~~shall~~ ~~have~~ no ~~liability~~ to ~~the~~ ~~Borrower or~~ ~~to any~~ ~~other~~ ~~Person~~ ~~for its failure to provide such notice.~~ (B) If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (A)(i) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (A)(i) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBOR Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable LIBOR Margin). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 14.01, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (B) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.10(d)(B), only to the extent the LIBOR Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) any Notice of Conversion or Continuation that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a LIBOR Loan shall be ineffective and (y) if any Notice of Borrowing requests a LIBOR Loan, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Loan; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.

~~(e)~~ Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to Section 2.10(a) or (b) shall not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation, but the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 270 days prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270 days period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 2.11. Funding Losses. If for any reason (other than default by a Lender) (a) any Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, an Interest Period Loan does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any prepayment, repayment or conversion of a LIBOR Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period, (c) the Borrower fails to prepay or repay a LIBOR Loan when required hereunder, or (d) any assignment of a LIBOR Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor at the request of the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.10, then the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent its customary administrative charge and to each Lender all losses and expenses that it sustains as a consequence thereof, including any loss or expense arising from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate deposits of matching funds, but excluding loss of margin or anticipated profits. All amounts payable by the Borrower under this Section 2.11 shall be due and payable in accordance with Section 5.05. Lenders shall not be required to purchase deposits in the London interbank market or any other applicable market to fund any LIBOR Loan, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if each Lender had purchased such deposits to fund such LIBOR Loans.

Section 2.12. Change of Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11 or gives a notice under Section 2.11, or if the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts or indemnity payments with respect to a Lender under Section 5.04, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office 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 (a) would eliminate the need for such notice or reduce amounts payable or to be withheld in the future, as applicable; and (b) in each case, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender or unlawful. The Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Section 2.13. [Reserved]

Section 2.14. Incremental Facilities. (a) The Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request the establishment of one or more New Term Loan Commitments by an aggregate amount following the ~~2017~~2018 Refinancing Amendment Effective Date not in excess of the sum of (x) such amount so long as, at the time of the incurrence of the Indebtedness thereunder, the First Lien Leverage Ratio shall not exceed 4.00:1.00 on a Pro Forma Basis plus (y) $200,000,000. For the avoidance of doubt, (A) in the event that the Borrower exercises its right to incur Incremental Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.14 on a date on which the First Lien Leverage Ratio is no greater than 4.00:1.00 on a Pro Forma Basis, such Incremental Term Loans shall be allocated solely to clause (x) of the foregoing limitation and shall not reduce the $200,000,000 amount provided for in clause (y) of such limitation, and (B) in the event that the Borrower exercises its right to incur Incremental Term Loans on the basis of both clauses (x) and (y) of the foregoing limitation, the applicable ratio under clause (x) will not give effect to the incurrence of the portion of the Incremental Term Loans incurred in reliance on the basis of clause (y). Each such notice requesting New Term Loan Commitments shall not be less than $10,000,000 individually. Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the New Term Loan Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent; provided that any Lender offered or approached to provide all or a portion of the New Term Loan Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Term Loan Commitment. Such New Term Loan Commitments shall become effective, as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable; (ii) both before and after giving effect to the making of any Series of New Term Loans, each of the conditions set forth in Sections 6.01(i) and 6.06 shall be satisfied, (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Credit Event” or similar language in such Sections shall be deemed to refer to the Increased Amount Date); provided that, in connection with a Borrowing of such Incremental Term Loans the proceeds of which are used to fund a Limited Conditionality Acquisition, (x) the only representations and warranties under Section 6.06 the making and accuracy of which will be a condition to the borrowing of such Incremental Term Loans will be limited to the Specified Representations and such of the representations and warranties made by seller and target in the relevant Subject Acquisition Agreement with the relevant Credit Party as are material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that such Credit Party has the right to terminate its obligations (or to refuse to consummate the acquisition) under the relevant acquisition agreement as a result of a breach of such representations in such acquisition agreement and (y) any condition that a Default or Event of Default not be occurring or continuing (or any substantially similar condition) may be limited to the time of signing of the relevant acquisition agreement and not be required at the time of Borrowing of such Incremental Term Loans; (iii) the New Term Loan Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the Borrower and Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 5.04(g); (iv) the Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.11 in connection with the New Term Loan Commitments, as applicable; and (v) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction. Any New Term Loans made on an Increased Amount Date shall be designated, a separate series (a “Series”) of New Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b) [Intentionally Omitted]

(c) On any Increased Amount Date on which any New Term Loan Commitments of any Series are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each New Term Loan Lender with a New Term Loan Commitment of any Series shall make a New Term Loan to the Borrower in an amount equal to its New Term Loan Commitment of such Series, and (ii) each New Term Loan Lender of any Series shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the New Term Loan Commitment of such Series and the New Term Loans of such Series made pursuant thereto.

(d) The terms and provisions of the New Term Loans and New Term Loan Commitments of any Series shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the applicable Joinder Agreement, identical to the existing Term Loans; provided that (i) the applicable New Term Loan Maturity Date of each Series shall be no earlier than the final maturity of the Term Loans outstanding on the Increased Amount Date with respect to such New Term Loans and the mandatory prepayment and other payment rights (other than scheduled amortization) of the New Term Loans and the existing Term Loans shall be identical, (ii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of all New Term Loans of any Series shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans outstanding on the Increased Amount Date, (iii) the rate of interest and the amortization schedule applicable to the New Term Loans of each Series shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable new Lenders and shall be set forth in each applicable Joinder Agreement; provided that in the event that the All-In Yield applicable to any New Term Loans incurred during the 12 month period following the 2017 Refinancing Amendment Effective Date exceeds the All-In Yield of the Term Loans outstanding as of the Increased Amount Date by more than 50 basis points, then the interest rate margins for such Term Loans outstanding as of the Increased Amount Date shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the All-In Yield of such Term Loans is equal to the All-In Yield of such New Term Loans minus 50 basis points and (iv) all other terms applicable to the New Term Loans of each Series that differ from the existing Term Loans shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (as evidenced by its execution of the applicable Joinder Agreement).

(e) Each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provision of this Section 2.14.

Section 2.15. Refinancing Amendments. (a) The Borrower may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, obtain, from any Lender or any New Term Loan Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness, to refinance all or any portion of the Loans and Commitments hereunder (which for this purpose will be deemed to include any then New Term Loans), pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided (i) such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness will have such pricing, fees (including upfront fees and original interest discount (“OID”)), optional prepayment terms, redemption premiums and subordination terms as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof, (ii) such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness, will have a maturity date that is not prior to the maturity date of the Class of Term Loans being refinanced, and will have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is not shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Class of Term Loans being refinanced, provided that in the case of Permitted Junior Priority Refinancing Debt and Permitted Unsecured Refinancing Debt, such Indebtedness will have a maturity date that is not prior to the 91st day after the maturity date of the Class of Term Loans being refinanced at the time of issuance or incurrence of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness, (iii) except as otherwise permitted herein, such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness will have terms and conditions taken as a whole that are no more favorable to the investors providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness than, the Refinanced Debt; provided further that the terms and conditions applicable to such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed between the Borrower and the investors thereof and applicable only during periods after the latest maturity date that is in effect on the date such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is incurred or obtained and (iv) the interest rate margins applicable to such Credit Refinancing Indebtedness shall be agreed between the Borrower and the investors thereunder. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Sections 6.01(i) and 6.06, and to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements delivered on the Closing Date (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Credit Event” or similar language in such Sections shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such Refinancing Amendment). Each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.15 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $50,000,000 and an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as New Term Loans and/or New Term Loan Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.15.

(b) This Section 2.15 shall supersede any provisions in Section 5.08 or Section 14.01 to the contrary.

Section 2.16. Extension of Maturity Date. (a) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the applicable Class of Lenders), request one or more extensions of the maturity date applicable to the maturity date applicable to the Term Loans or New Term Loans, as applicable, of a given Class (each, an “Existing Term Loan Tranche”) then in effect (such existing maturity date applicable to any Class of Term Loans or New Term Loans being the “Existing Term Loan Maturity Date”) to a date specified in such notice. Within 15 Business Days of delivery of such notice (or such other period as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall mutually agree upon), each applicable Term Lender or New Term Lender, as the case may be, shall notify the Administrative Agent whether it consents to such extension (which consent may be given or withheld in such Term Lender’s or New Term Lender’s, as applicable, sole and absolute discretion). Any Term Lender or New Term Lender, as applicable, not responding within the above time period shall be deemed not to have consented to such extension. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the applicable Term Lenders and/or the New Term Lenders of such Term Lenders’ or the New Term Lenders’ responses, as applicable.

(b) The maturity date applicable to any Class of Term Loans or New Term Loans, as applicable, shall be extended (such Term Loans so extended, the “Extended Term Loans”) only with respect to such Existing Term Loan Tranche, as applicable, held by such Term Lenders or New Term Lenders, as applicable, that have consented thereto (the Term Lenders or New Term Lenders providing term loans, as applicable, that so consent being the “Extending Term Lenders” and the Term Lenders or New Term Lenders providing term loans, as applicable, that declined being the “Non-Extending Term Lenders”) (it being understood and agreed that, except for the consents of Extending Term Lenders, as applicable, no other consents shall be required hereunder for such extensions). If so extended, the scheduled maturity date with respect to the Term Loans or New Term Loans of the relevant Class held by the Extending Term Lenders shall be extended to the date specified in the notice referred to in Section 2.16(a) above, which shall become the new maturity date of the applicable Class of Term Loans or New Term Loans (such maturity date for the Term Loans or New Term Loans, as applicable, so affected, the “Extended Term Loan Maturity Date”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly confirm to the applicable Extending Term Lenders and Non-Extending Term Lenders such extension, specifying the effective date of such extension (the “Term Loan Extension Effective Date”), the Existing Term Loan Maturity Date applicable to the Non-Extending Term Lenders, and the Extended Term Loan Maturity Date (after giving effect to such extension) applicable to the Extending Term Lenders. The proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under the applicable tranche of Term Loan and (y) be identical to the Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which such Extended Term Loans are to be amended, except that: (i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided, however, that at no time shall there be Classes of Term Loans hereunder (including Refinancing Term Loans and Extended Term Loans) which have more than five (5) different maturity dates; (ii) the Effective Yield with respect to the Extended Term Loans (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, original issue discount or otherwise) may be different than the Effective Yield for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Tranche, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the final maturity date of the Term Loans held by the Non-Extending Term Lenders that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans); and (iv) Extended Term Loans may have call protection as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof; provided that no Extended Term Loans may be optionally prepaid prior to the date on which all Term Loans with an earlier final stated maturity (including Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche from which they were amended) are repaid in full, unless such optional prepayment is accompanied by a pro rata optional prepayment of such other Term Loans. As a condition precedent to such extension, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Term Loan Extension Effective Date, signed by a Senior Officer of the Borrower certifying that, before and after giving effect to such extension, the representations and warranties contained in Article 8 made by it that are qualified by materiality shall be true and correct, and the representations that are not so qualified shall be true and correct in all material respects, in each case on and as of the Term Loan Extension Effective Date, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date, and no Default or Event of Default exists or will exist as of the Term Loan Extension Effective Date.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) the Borrower and/or the Extending Term Lenders shall have the right to appoint successor syndication agents or co- documentation agents, in each case, to replace any such person that does not consent to continue its respective obligations and duties under the Credit Documents in connection with an extension under this Section 2.16 and (ii) the Borrower shall have the right, at any time prior to the Existing Term Loan Maturity Date, at the Borrower’s sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Non-Extending Term Lender, and the Administrative Agent, to require each such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 14.07), 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 (w) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent(s) shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (x) each Non-Extending Term 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 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), (y) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 14.07(b), and (z) in no event shall the Borrower be entitled to exercise its replacement right under this subclause (c) with respect to a Non-Extending Term Lender that is also acting as the Administrative Agent. Any such replacement Lender shall for all purposes constitute an Extending Term Lender.

(d) Notwithstanding the terms of Section 14.01, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled (without the consent of any other Lenders except to the extent required under subsection (c) above) to enter into any amendments (an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement that the Administrative Agent believes are necessary to appropriately reflect, or provide for the integration of, any extension of the maturity date and other amendments applicable to any Class of Term Loans or New Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.16.

Each prepayment in respect of any Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall be (a) applied to Term Loans in such manner as the Borrower may determine and (b) applied to reduce Repayment Amounts, and/or any New Term Loan Repayment Amounts, as the case may be, in such order as the Borrower may determine.

(b) ~~(d)~~ Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that, from or in anticipation of the receipt of proceeds of any Indebtedness, all or any portion of the Term Loans is (i) repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced or (ii) repriced or effectively refinanced through any waiver, consent or amendment (in each case, in connection with any waiver, consent or amendment to the Term Loans directed at, or the result of which would be, the lowering of the effective interest cost or the weighted average yield of the Term Loans or the incurrence of any debt financing having an effective interest cost or weighted average yield that is less than the effective interest cost or weighted average yield of the Term Loans (or portion thereof) so repaid, prepaid, refinanced, replaced or repriced (a “Repricing Transaction”)) occurring on or prior to the six-month anniversary of the ~~2017~~2018 Amendment Effective Date, such repayment, prepayment, refinancing, replacement or repricing will be made at 101.0% of the principal amount so repaid, prepaid, refinanced, replaced or repriced. If all or any portion of the Term Loans held by any Lender is repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced pursuant to Section 5.10, a “yank-a-bank” or similar provision in the Credit Documents as a result of, or in connection with, such Lender not agreeing or otherwise consenting to any waiver, consent or amendment referred to in clause (ii) above (or otherwise in connection with a Repricing Transaction), such repayment, prepayment, refinancing or replacement will be made at 101.0% of the principal amount so repaid, prepaid, refinanced is replaced or repriced. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this clause (b) shall not apply to any repayment, prepayment, refinancing or replacement of the Term Loans which occurs in connection with a Change of Control transaction or any Transformative Event.

Section 5.02. Mandatory Prepayments. (a) Term Loan and First Priority Debt Prepayments. (i) On each occasion that a Prepayment Event occurs, the Borrower shall, within one Business Day after the occurrence of a Debt Incurrence Prepayment Event and within five Business Days after the occurrence of any other Prepayment Event (or, in the case of Deferred Net Cash Proceeds, within five Business Days after the Reinvestment Period relating to such Prepayment Event or 180 days thereafter, as applicable), prepay, in accordance with paragraph (c) below, a principal amount of (x) Term Loans and (y) in the case of an Asset Sale Prepayment Event, at the Borrower’s option, Permitted First Priority Debt and Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt, in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds from such Prepayment Event. If all or substantially all of the Equity Interests of any Credit Party are sold or any Credit Party is sold as a going concern on any date, the sale proceeds shall be allocated as follows: (x) that portion of the sale proceeds equal to the aggregate value of “Accounts” and “Cost” of “Inventory” (in each case, as defined in the Revolving Loan Credit Agreement) shall be allocated to the Revolving Credit Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) of the Credit Parties so sold and shall be deemed to be proceeds thereof and (y) the balance of sale proceeds shall be allocated to the Collateral of the Credit Parties so sold and shall be deemed to be proceeds thereof and applied pursuant to the foregoing sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Casualty Event occurring with respect to the Revolving Credit Collateral (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), the insurance proceeds thereof shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) to the extent required under the Intercreditor Agreement and subsequent to the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), shall be applied in accordance with this Section 5.02(a)(i).

(ii) Not later than the date that is 120 days after the last day of any fiscal year (commencing with and including the fiscal year ending December 31, 2013) (each such period, an “Excess Cash Flow Period”), the Borrower shall prepay, in accordance with paragraph (c) below, the principal of Term Loans in an amount equal to (x) 50% of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year, which shall be reduced to 25% of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year if the First Lien Leverage Ratio on the date of prepayment (prior to giving effect thereto) for the most recent Test Period ended prior to such prepayment date is no greater than 2.75 to 1.00 but greater than 2.50 to 1.00, provided that no payment of any Term Loans shall be required under this Section 5.02(a)(ii) if the First Lien Leverage Ratio on the date of prepayment (prior to giving effect thereto) for the most recent Test Period ended prior to such prepayment date is no greater than 2.50 to 1.00), minus (y) the principal amount of Term Loans voluntarily prepaid pursuant to Section 5.01 during such fiscal year.

(b) [Intentionally Omitted]

(c) Application to Repayment Amounts. Any prepayment of Permitted First Priority Debt or Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt made pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(i) shall be applied to the Term Loans and such Permitted First Priority Debt and Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt on a pro rata basis in respect of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Term Loans, Permitted First Priority Debt and Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt, as applicable. Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(i) or (ii) shall be applied to the next four Repayment Amounts in chronological order and further applied on a pro rata basis to the remaining Repayment Amounts. With respect to each such prepayment, the Borrower will, not later than the date specified in Section 5.02(a) for making such prepayment, give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing no later than 1:00 p.m. (Central time)) requesting that the Administrative Agent provide notice of such prepayment to the relevant Lenders.

(d) Application to Term Loans. With respect to prepayment of Term Loans required by Section 5.02(a), the Borrower may designate the Types of Loans that are to be prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its reasonable discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section 2.11.

(e) LIBOR Interest Periods. In lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 5.02 in respect of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower at its option may deposit with the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR Loan to be prepaid and such LIBOR Loan shall be repaid on the last day of the Interest Period therefor in the required amount. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a corporate time deposit account established on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, earning interest at the then-customary rate for accounts of such type. Such deposit shall constitute cash collateral for the Obligations, provided that the Borrower may at any time direct that such deposit be applied to make the applicable payment required pursuant to this Section 5.02.

(f) Minimum Amount. No prepayment shall be required pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(i) unless and until the amount at any time of Net Cash Proceeds from Prepayment Events required to be applied at or prior to such time pursuant to such Section and not yet applied at or prior to such time to prepay Term Loans, Permitted First Priority Debt or Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt pursuant to such Section exceeds (i) $10,000,000 for a single Prepayment Event or (ii) $20,000,000 in the aggregate for all such Prepayment Events.

(g) Foreign Asset Sales. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 5.02, (i) to the extent that any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of a Casualty Event or any asset sale by a Restricted Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to an Asset Sale Prepayment Event (a “Foreign Asset Sale”) or Excess Cash Flow are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans, Permitted First Priority Debt or Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt at the times provided in this Section 5.02 but may be retained by the applicable Restricted Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Parent hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Restricted Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all commercially reasonable actions required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than two Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans (or, if applicable, Permitted First Priority Debt or Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt) pursuant to this Section 5.02 and (ii) to the extent that the Parent has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Asset Sale or Excess Cash Flow would have a material adverse tax consequence with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Restricted Foreign Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of this clause (ii), on or before the date on which any Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to 5.02(a), (x) the Parent applies an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow to such reinvestments or prepayments as if such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been received by the Parent rather than such Restricted Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been repatriated (or, if less, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow that would be calculated if received by such Foreign Subsidiary) or (y) such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow are applied to the repayment of Indebtedness of a Restricted Foreign Subsidiary only if the proceeds applied to such prepayment arise from the disposition of assets not constituting Collateral.

(h) Opt-Out. With respect to any prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 5.02 (other than a prepayment arising out of a Debt Incurrence Prepayment Event), any Lender, at its option, may irrevocably elect not to accept such prepayment. Any Lender declining such prepayment (a “Declining Lender”) shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent as promptly as practicable following receipt of notice of such prepayment pursuant to Section 5.02(c). Any amounts that would otherwise have been applied to prepay Term Loans owing to Declining Lenders shall instead be retained by the Borrower (such amounts, “Declined Amounts”).

Section 5.03. Method and Place of Payment. (a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement shall be made by the Borrower, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders entitled thereto, not later than 12:00 noon (Central time) on the date when due and shall be made in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office or at such other office as the Administrative Agent shall specify for such purpose by notice to the Borrower, it being understood that written or facsimile notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent to make a payment from the funds in the Borrower’s account at the Administrative Agent’s Office shall constitute the making of such payment to the extent of such funds held in such account. All repayments or prepayments of Loans (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) hereunder shall be made in Dollars. The Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. (Central time) on such day) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or Fees ratably to the Lenders entitled thereto.

(b) Any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 2:00 p.m. (Central time) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension.

Section 5.04. Taxes. (a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 5.04, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Credit Parties under any Credit Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding based on, among other things, information provided pursuant to this Section 5.04 and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Credit Parties 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 5.04(b)) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

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

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Credit Parties 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 5.04(d)) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that a Borrower or Guarantor has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower or the Guarantors to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 14.07(m) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit 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 Credit Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or any Guarantor to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 5.04, the applicable Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(g) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 5.04(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

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

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

(i) 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 Credit Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or W-8BEN-E as applicable (or any successor forms) 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 Credit Document, IRS Form W-8BEN (or W-8BEN-E as applicable or (any successor forms) 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;

(ii) two executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms);

(iii) 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 M-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or W-8BEN-E as applicable (or any successor forms); or

(iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms), accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit M-2 or Exhibit M-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents (or any successor forms) 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 M-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

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

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Credit 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 and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower 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 or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower 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; and

(E) For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the 2015 Refinancing Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this 2017 Refinancing Amendment as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

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

(h) 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 5.04 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.04), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, and additional amounts paid, 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. For the avoidance of doubt, 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) to the extent the payment of such amount would place the indemnified party in an economically less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund 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.

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.04 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 Credit Document.

Section 5.05. Computations of Interest and Fees.

(a) All interest on LIBOR Loans shall be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 360 days. Interest on ABR Loans, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 365 days (or 366, as the case may be). Each determination by the Administrative Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or proration. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail amounts payable by the Borrower under Section 2.10(b), Section 2.11 and Section 5.04(b) and the basis therefor, submitted to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower shall pay such amounts to the appropriate party within 10 Business Days following receipt of the certificate.

(b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Parent or for any other reason, the Parent or the Lenders determine that (1) the Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (2) a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, then the Borrower shall promptly and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent or any Lender), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender under Section 2.08(c) or under Article 12. The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

Section 5.06. Limit on Rate of Interest.

(a) No Payment shall exceed Lawful Rate. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be obliged to pay any interest or other amounts under or in connection with this Agreement in excess of the amount or rate permitted under or consistent with any applicable law, rule or regulation.

(b) Payment at Highest Lawful Rate. If the Borrower is not obliged to make a payment which it would otherwise be required to make, as a result of Section 5.06(a), the Borrower shall make such payment to the maximum extent permitted by or consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

(c) Adjustment if any Payment exceeds Lawful Rate. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents would obligate the Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by any applicable law, rule or regulation, then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid by the Borrower to the affected Lender under Section 2.08.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if any Lender shall have received from the Borrower an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by any applicable law, rule or regulation, then the Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent to obtain reimbursement from that Lender in an amount equal to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by that Lender to the Borrower.

Section 5.07. Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.

(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. (Central time) on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its pro rata share in respect of the Loans (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. (Central time) shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(b) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each Lender, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 5.07(b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(c) Insufficient Funds. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, toward payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

(d) Unallocated Funds. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Credit Parties under or in respect of the Credit Documents under circumstances for which the Credit Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding amount of all Loans outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender.

Section 5.08. Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it, any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 14.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff, but subject to Section 14.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 5.08 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 5.08 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to assignments and participations (including by means of a Dutch Auction) described in Section 14.07.

Section 5.09. Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law:

(i) That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 14.01.

(ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 12 or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 14.09), 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 that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Article 6 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) That Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(iv) During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the “Pro Rata Share” of each Non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists.

(b) If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be 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 that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares (without giving effect to Section 5.09 (a)(iv), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower 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 5.10. Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If at any time (i) the Borrower becomes obligated to pay additional amounts or indemnity payments described in Section 5.04 or 2.10 as a result of any condition described in such Sections or any Lender ceases to make LIBOR Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 2.10(c) or 2.10(d), (ii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iii) any Lender becomes a “Non-Consenting Lender” (as defined below in this Section 5.10), then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, on ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, either (i) replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign, without recourse, pursuant to Section 14.07(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrower in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided, that (x) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (y) 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 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 (z) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person or (ii) terminate the Commitment of such Lender and repay all obligations of the Borrower 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 if, prior thereto, as a result of waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment cease to apply.

(b) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 5.10(a) above shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans, and (ii) deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans, (B) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender.

(c) In the event that (i) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested the Lenders to consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Credit Documents or to agree to any amendment thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 14.01 or all the Lenders with respect to a certain Class of the Loans and (iii) the Required Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender”.

REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS

In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement, to make the Loans as provided for herein, the Parent (with respect to itself and its Restricted Subsidiaries) makes the following representations and warranties to, and agreements with, the Lenders, all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans:

Section 8.01. Corporate Status. The Parent and each Material Subsidiary (a) is a duly organized and validly existing corporation or other entity in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization (to the extent such jurisdiction provides for the designation of entities organized and incorporated thereunder as existing in good standing) and has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to own its property and assets and to transact the business in which it is engaged and (b) has duly qualified and is authorized to do business and is in good standing in all jurisdictions where it is required to be so qualified, except where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 8.02. Corporate Power and Authority. Each Credit Party has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and provisions of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Documents to which it is a party. Each Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each Credit Document to which it is a party and each such Credit Document constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Credit Party enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity. Each Credit Party is in compliance with all laws, orders, writs and injunctions except to the extent that failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 8.03. No Violation. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by any Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party nor compliance with the terms and provisions thereof nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby will (a) contravene any material provision of any Applicable Law applicable to such Credit Party, (b) result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien upon any of the property or assets of such Credit Party or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (other than Liens created under the Credit Documents) pursuant to the terms of any material indenture, loan agreement, lease agreement, mortgage, deed of trust, agreement or other material instrument to which such Credit Party or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound or (c) violate any provision of the Organizational Documents of such Credit Party or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries.

Section 8.04. Litigation. There are no actions, suits, arbitrations or proceedings (including Environmental Claims) pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent or the Borrower, threatened with respect to the Parent, the Borrower or any of their Restricted Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or a Material Adverse Change.

Section 8.05. Margin Regulations. Neither the Parent nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is engaged principally, as one or more of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of purchasing any “margin stock” as defined in Regulation U. Neither the making of any Loan hereunder nor the use of the proceeds thereof will violate the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board.

Section 8.06. Governmental Approvals. The execution, delivery and performance of each Credit Document does not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except for (a) such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (b) filings and recordings in respect of the Liens created pursuant to the Security Documents and (c) such licenses, approvals, authorizations or consents the failure to obtain or make could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 8.07. Investment Company Act. No Credit Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Section 8.08. True and Complete Disclosure. (a) None of the factual information and data (taken as a whole) heretofore or contemporaneously furnished by or on behalf of the Parent, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective authorized representatives in writing to the Administrative Agent and/or any Lender on or before the Closing Date (including (i) the Confidential Information Memorandum and (ii) all information contained in the Credit Documents) for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement or any transaction contemplated herein contained any untrue statement or omitted to state any material fact necessary to make such information and data (taken as a whole) not misleading at such time in light of the circumstances under which such information or data was furnished, it being understood and agreed that for purposes of this Section 8.08(a), such factual information and data shall not include general economic or industry information or projections and pro forma financial information.

(b) The projections and pro forma financial information contained in the information and data referred to in paragraph (a) above were based on good faith estimates and assumptions believed by such Persons to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such projections may differ from the projected results.

(a) declare the commitment of each Lender to make Loans to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation shall be terminated;

(b) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Credit Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; and

ARTICLE 13

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND OTHER AGENTS

Section 13.01. Appointment and Authorization of Agents.

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes JPMorgan as successor Administrative Agent to the Prior Administrative Agent and, as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Credit Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Credit Document, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, in the Collateral Trust Agreement or in any other Credit Document to which such Agent is a party, nor shall any Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any other Agent, any Lender or Participant, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Credit Document or otherwise exist against any Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Credit Documents with reference to any 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 merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

133

(b) Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints, designates, and authorizes the Collateral Trustee to act as its agent under the Collateral Trust Agreement and the other Credit Documents for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Credit Parties to secure any of the Obligations, including to (i) take such action on its behalf under the provisions of the Collateral Trust Agreement and the other Credit Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Trustee by the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement and the other Credit Documents, together with such other powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto and (ii) to enter into any and all Security Documents and the Collateral Trust Agreement and such other documents and instruments as shall be necessary to give effect to (A) the ranking and priority of the Obligations, (B) the security interests in the Collateral purported to be created by the Security Documents and (C) other terms and conditions of the Collateral Trust Agreement. Each Lender further agrees to be bound by the terms of the Collateral Trust Agreement to the same extent as if it were a party thereto and authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into the Collateral Trust Agreement on its behalf. The Collateral Trustee (and any co-trustees, co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in- fact appointed by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee pursuant to Section 13.2 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Collateral Trustee), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article 13 (including, without limitation, Section 13.07 as though such co-agents, sub- agents and attorneys-in-fact were the Collateral Trustee under the Credit Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

Section 13.02. Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Credit Document (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security Documents or of exercising any rights and remedies thereunder) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

134

Section 13.03. Liability of Agents. No Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein, to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) or (b) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or Participant for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Credit Party or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Credit Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under the Security Documents, or for any failure of any Credit Party or any other party to any Credit Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or Participant to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof.

Section 13.04. Reliance by Agents.

(a) Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Credit Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under any Credit Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Credit Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Article 6, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.

Section 13.05. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to any Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article 12; provided, however, that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

135

Section 13.06. Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agents. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Credit Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower and the other Credit Parties hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent herein, such Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Credit Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

Section 13.07. Indemnification of Agents. Whether or not the Transactions are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Credit Party and without limiting the obligation of any Credit Party to do so), ratably based on their respective Pro Rata Shares in effect on the date such indemnification is sought under this Section, and hold harmless each Agent- Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 13.07. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Liabilities, this Section 13.07 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse each Agent upon demand, ratably based on its Pro Rata Share, of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including the documented fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) incurred by such Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Credit Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that such Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower. The undertaking in this Section 13.07 shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of such Agent.

136

Section 13.08. Agents in their Individual Capacities. Any Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each of the Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates as though it were not an Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, an Agent or its Affiliates may receive information regarding any Credit Party or its Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Credit Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that such Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, such Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include such Agent in its individual capacity.

Section 13.09. Successor Agents. (a) The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be consented to by the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 11.5 (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent,” shall mean such successor administrative agent and/or supplemental administrative agent, as the case may be, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 13 and Sections 14.04 and 14.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following the retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Mortgages, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to preserve the effectiveness of the Guarantee or continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Security Documents, the Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges, and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Credit Documents. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 13 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.

137

Section 13.10. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, 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 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 and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.10 and 14.04) 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;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender 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, 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 Sections 2.10 and 14.04.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

Section 13.11. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. Each of the Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable at its option and in its discretion,

138

(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Trustee under any Credit Document (1) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable), (2) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Credit Document, or if such Collateral constituting Equity Interests or Indebtedness ceases to be required to be pledged under the Credit Agreement as a result of becoming Equity Interests of an Excluded Pledge Subsidiary of the type referred to in clause (b) or (c) of the definition thereof or Indebtedness owing to an Excluded Subsidiary or (3) subject to Section 14.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders;

(b) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Trustee under any Credit Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 10.01(f);

(c) to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder; and

(d) to release the lien on the Equity Collateral in connection with the issuance of any registered secured notes (or secured notes issued with registration rights) (such notes, the “Registered Notes”) by the Parent, the Borrower or any Credit Party if and to the same extent the holders of such Registered Notes or trustee is not granted a lien on such Equity Collateral, provided that any release of Liens pursuant to this clause (d) shall only be to such extent as is necessary to enable the Borrower and the Guarantors not to have to comply with reporting obligations under Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act; provided further that any request for a release of Liens under this clause (d), shall be accompanied by a certificate of a Senior Officer of the Parent certifying that (x) the issuance of such Registered Notes is permitted under this Agreement, (y) such Registered Notes shall not be secured by a Lien on the Equity Collateral and (z) a release of the Liens of the Collateral Trustee on the Equity Collateral is necessary to enable the Credit Parties not to have to comply with reporting obligations under Rule 3-16 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act.

At any time, upon request of (x) the Collateral Trustee through the Administrative Agent or (y) the Administrative Agent directly, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing such Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor (other than the Parent) from its obligations under the Guarantee pursuant to this Section 13.11. In each case as specified in this Section 13.11, the Collateral Trustee or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Credit Party such documents as such Credit Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security Documents, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Credit Documents and this Section 13.11.

Section 13.12. Other Agents; Arranger and Managers. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “co-documentation agent,” “joint lead arranger,” “bookrunner” or “co-manager” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than, if such Person is a Lender, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

139

Section 13.13. Appointment of Supplemental Administrative Agents.

(a) It is the purpose of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents that there shall be no violation of any law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Credit Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or future law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Credit Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee, administrative agent, collateral agent, administrative sub-agent or administrative co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a “Supplemental Administrative Agent” and collectively as “Supplemental Administrative Agents”).

(b) In the event that the Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental Administrative Agent with respect to the Guarantee or any Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Trustee with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Administrative Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Administrative Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to the Guarantee or such Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to the Guarantee or such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Credit Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Supplemental Administrative Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Article 13 and of Sections 14.04 and 14.05 (obligating the Credit Parties to pay the Administrative Agent’s and Collateral Trustee’s expenses and to indemnify the Administrative Agent and Collateral Trustee) that refer to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Trustee shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Administrative Agent and all references therein to an Agent, the Administrative Agent or Collateral Trustee shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Trustee, as applicable, and/or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, as the context may require.

(c) Should any instrument in writing from the Borrower, or any other Credit Party be required by any Supplemental Administrative Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such Person such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower or the Parent, shall, or shall cause such Credit Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent. In case any Supplemental Administrative Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Trustee, as applicable, until the appointment of a new Supplemental Administrative Agent.

ARTICLE 14

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 14.01. Amendments, Etc. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Credit Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders (other than with respect to any amendment or waiver contemplated in clause (h) below, which shall only require the consent of the Required Facility Lenders under the applicable Class of New Term Loans instead of the Required Lenders) (or by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) and the Borrower or the applicable Credit Party, as the case may be, and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall:

(a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Article 6 or the waiver of any Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender);

(b) postpone any date scheduled for any payment of principal of, or interest on, any Loan or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, it being understood that the waiver of any mandatory prepayment of the Loans shall not constitute a postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest;

(c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan, or (subject to clause (iii) of the second proviso to this Section 14.01) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Credit Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, it being understood that any change to the definition of Total Leverage Ratio or in the component definitions thereof shall not constitute a reduction in the rate; provided, that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate;

(d) change any provision of this Section 14.01 or the definition of “Required Lenders”, or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder without the written consent of each Lender;

(e) other than in a transaction permitted under Section 10.03 or 10.04, release all or substantially all of the Collateral in any transaction or series of related transactions, without the written consent of each Lender;

141

(f) other than in connection with a transaction permitted under Section 10.03 or 10.04 release all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantee, without the written consent of each Lender;

(g) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of the Credit Documents as the same applies to any Agent or Arranger, Article 13 or any other provision hereof as the same applies to the rights or obligations of any Agent or Arranger, in each case without the consent of such Agent or Arranger, as applicable; or

(h) amend, waive or otherwise modify any term or provision (including the availability and conditions to funding under Section 2.14 with respect to New Term Loans and New Term Loan Commitments and the rate of interest applicable thereto) which directly affects Lenders of one or more Incremental Term Loans and does not directly affect Lenders under any other Class of Term Loans, in each case, without the written consent of the holders of a majority of the New Term Loans of such affected Class (the “Required Facility Lenders”); provided, however, that the waivers described in this clause (h) shall not require the consent of any Lenders other than the Required Facility Lenders under such applicable New Term Loans or New Term Loan Commitments.

and provided, further that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; and (ii) Section 14.07(g) may not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification; and (iii) the Engagement Letter may be amended, or rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended, the maturity of any of its Loans may not be extended and the principal amount of any of its Loans may not be reduced or forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Defaulting Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in connection with any “Required Lender” votes, Lenders that are Debt Fund Affiliates shall not be permitted, in the aggregate, to account for more than 50% of the amounts includable in determining whether the “Required Lenders” have consented to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action that is subject to such vote. The voting power of each Lender that is a Debt Fund Affiliate shall be reduced, pro rata, to the extent necessary in order to comply with the immediately preceding sentence.

142

Notwithstanding the foregoing: (I) no Lender consent is required to effect any amendment or supplement to the Intercreditor Agreement, Collateral Trust Agreement or other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement that is for the purpose of adding the holders of Permitted First Priority Debt, Permitted Junior Priority Debt, Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt or Permitted Junior Priority Refinancing Debt, as expressly contemplated by the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement, such Collateral Trust Agreement or such other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement, as applicable (it being understood that any such amendment or supplement may make such other changes to the applicable intercreditor agreement as, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, are required to effectuate the foregoing and provided that such other changes are not adverse, in any material respect, to the interests of the Lenders); provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Credit Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent; (II) this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Parent (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with the Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders; and (III) if at any time (A) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in Section 2.10(d) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in Section 2.10(d) have not arisen, but the supervisor for the administrator of the ICE Benchmark Administration LIBOR Rate (or the successor thereto with respect to LIBOR), or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent, has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans or (B) the Required Lenders (including pursuant to Section 2.10(d)) request an amendment to this Agreement as a result of the discontinuation of LIBOR, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBOR Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and may enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to amend and/or replace the definition of “LIBOR Rate” (and the ancillary terms and other provisions with respect thereto) to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement (and such other Credit Documents as may be applicable) with the consent of only the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in each case, only so long as the Administrative Agent provides the Lenders with written notice of the terms thereof at least five (5) Business Days prior to the effectiveness of any such amendment and the Required Lenders do not object thereto during such notice period.

The Borrower 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 the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Credit Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

145

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Credit Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Credit Documents against the Credit Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Article 11 for the benefit of all the Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 14.09 (subject to the terms of Section 5.05), or (c) except as otherwise provided in the Intercreditor Agreement, any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Credit Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article 11 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 5.08, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders

Each Credit Party agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Trustee for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, syndication and execution of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable and documented out- of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel (limited, in the case of the Administrative Agent, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel and, if necessary, of one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and of special counsel), and (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee and each Lender for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Credit Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or in connection with any workout or restructuring), including the fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel (limited, in the case of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one counsel each to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders taken as a whole, and, if necessary, of one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and of special counsel and, in the event of any actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional counsel for each Lender subject to such conflict), in each case without duplication for any amounts paid (or indemnified) under Section 14.05. The foregoing costs and expenses shall include all search, filing, recording, title insurance and appraisal charges and fees and taxes related thereto, and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent. All amounts due under this Section 14.04 shall be paid promptly, and in any event within twenty (20) Business Days after invoiced or demand therefor. The agreements in this Section 14.04 are intended to be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any reimbursement obligation of the Borrower or any Credit Party to the Collateral Trustee under the Collateral Trust Agreement or any other Credit Document and shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations.

No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other information transmission systems (including electronic telecommunications) in connection with this Agreement, nor shall any Indemnitee or any Credit Party have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date); provided further, that each Credit Party shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any and all claims by any third party claim for any such special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date). In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 14.05 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Credit Party, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under any of the other Credit Documents is consummated. The Borrower will not be required to indemnify any Indemnitee for any amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee in the settlement of any action, investigation, litigation or proceeding without the Borrower’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that the foregoing indemnity will apply to any such settlement in the event that (x) the Borrower was offered the ability to assume the defense of the action that was the subject matter of such settlement and elected not to so assume or the Borrower consented to such settlement, (y) there is a final judgment in such action, investigation, litigation or proceeding or (z) the Borrower has failed to provide counsel, or the expense reimbursement in respect thereof, to such Indemnitee on the terms set forth herein in a timely manner. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the applicable Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action, investigation, litigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnitee unless such settlement (a) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such action, investigation, litigation or proceeding and (b) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnitee or any injunctive relief or other non-monetary remedy. All amounts due under this Section 14.05 shall be promptly, and in any event within twenty (20) Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Section 14.05 are intended to be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any indemnification obligation of the Borrower or any Credit Party to the Collateral Trustee or its related Indemnitees under the Collateral Trust Agreement or any other Credit Document and shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Trustee, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations. This Section 14.05 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

147

Section 14.06. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to any Agent or any Lender, or any Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 14.07. Successors and Assigns.

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, Participants to the extent provided in Section 14.07(d) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender may at any time 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(s) and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided, that (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the outstanding principal balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than $250,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met; (ii) 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 with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned; (iii) no consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i) of this Section and, in addition (A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default under Section 11.01 or Section 11.05 has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (2) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required, unless such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; (iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (except the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect to waive such processing and recording fee in the case of any assignment); (v) no such assignment shall be made to (A) 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 (A) or (B) a natural person; (vi) the assigning Lender shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent; and (vii) in connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 14.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, 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 Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.04, 2.10, 2.11, 14.04 and 14.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Note, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this clause (b) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 14.07(d). Each Lender hereby represents and warrants that is a “Qualified Purchaser” within the meaning of Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

149

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of the Loans 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 Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or a Defaulting Lender) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 14.01 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 14.07(e), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.04, 2.10 and 2.11 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 14.07(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 14.09 as though it were a Lender, provided that, such Participant agrees to be subject to 5.08 as though it were a Lender.

150

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.04, 2.10 or 2.11 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’s prior written consent, or to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.04, 2.10 or 2.11 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant, and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with obligations, restrictions and limitations under Section 5.04 as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.04(g) shall be delivered by the Participant to the participating Lender).

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

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided, that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof or if it fails to do so, to make such payment to the Administrative Agent required under Section 2.04(b), and (iii) such SPC and the applicable Loan or any applicable part thereof, shall be appropriately reflected in the Participant Register. Each party hereto hereby agrees that an SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.04, 2.10 and 2.11 (subject to the requirements and the limitations of such Sections and the obligations to provide the forms and certifications pursuant to Section 5.04 as if it were a Lender); provided, that neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 5.04, 2.10 or 2.11). Each party hereto further agrees that (i) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (ii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Credit Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not, other than in respect of matters unrelated to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of $3,500, assign all or any portion of its rights hereunder with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

151

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided, that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 14.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Credit Documents, and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Credit Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise (unless such trustee is an Eligible Assignee which has complied with the requirements of Section 14.07(b)).

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender may, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Term Loans under this Agreement to a Person who is or will become, after such assignment, a Non-Debt Fund Affiliate through (x) Dutch auctions open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis or (y) open market purchases on a non-pro rata basis, in each case subject to the following limitations:

(i) the assigning Lender and Non-Debt Fund Affiliate purchasing such Lender’s Term Loans, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit O hereto (an “Affiliate Lender Assignment and Acceptance”) in lieu of an Assignment and Acceptance;

(ii) after giving effect to such assignment, the Non-Debt Fund Affiliates shall not, in the aggregate, own or hold Term Loans with an aggregate principal amount in excess of 20% of the principal amount of all Term Loans then outstanding (and, for purposes of maintaining compliance with this subsection 14.07(i)(ii), the relevant Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall confirm to the Administrative Agent and/or such relevant Non-Debt Fund Affiliate, the aggregate principal amount of Loans held by all Non-Debt Fund Affiliates as of the date of such assignment); provided that it is understood and agreed that neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for maintaining or monitoring the Term Loan ownership or holdings of Non-Debt Fund Affiliates;

(iii) such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall at the time of such assignment affirm the No Undisclosed Information Representation and shall at all times thereafter be subject to the restrictions specified in the second last paragraph of Section 14.01;

(iv) each Non-Debt Fund Affiliate, solely in its capacity as a Lender, hereby agrees, and each Affiliate Lender Assignment and Acceptance shall provide, that:

152

(A) any Loans held by a Lender who is a Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall be excluded in the determination of any “Required Lender” votes and no such Lender shall have any right to (i) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Borrower are not then present or (ii) receive any information or material prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among Administrative Agent and one or more Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to the Borrower or its representatives; and

(B) such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall have no right whatsoever so long as such Person is a Non-Debt Fund Affiliate to make or bring any claim, in its capacity as Lender, against the Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any Lender with respect to the duties and obligations of such Persons under the Credit Documents; and

(v) each Non-Debt Fund Affiliate hereby agrees that, and each Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption shall provide a confirmation that, if a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law shall be commenced by or against the Borrower or any other Credit Party at a time when such Lender is a Non-Debt Fund Affiliate:

(A) each Non-Debt Fund Affiliate irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent to vote on behalf of such Affiliated Lender with respect to the Term Loans held by such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate in any manner in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, unless the Administrative Agent instructs such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate to vote, in which case such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall vote with respect to the Term Loans held by it as the Administrative Agent directs; provided that such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall be entitled to vote in accordance with its sole discretion (and not in accordance with the direction of the Administrative Agent) in connection with any plan of reorganization to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat any Obligations held by such Non- Debt Fund Affiliate in a disproportionately adverse manner to such Non- Debt Fund Affiliate than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Term Lenders that are not Non-Debt Fund Affiliate; and

(B) each Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall not take any step or action (whether directly or indirectly) in any such proceeding to object to, impede, or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by the Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third party to which the Administrative Agent has consented with respect to any disposition of assets by the Borrower or any equity or debt financing to be made to the Borrower, including, without limitation, the filing of any pleading by the Administrative Agent) in (or with respect to any matters related to) the proceeding so long as the Administrative Agent is not taking any action to treat such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate’s Loans in a disproportionately adverse manner to such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Term Lenders that are not Non-Debt Fund Affiliates (including, without limitation, objecting to any debtor-in- possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition, compromise or plan of reorganization).

153

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender may assign all or any portion of its Loans hereunder to the Parent or the Borrower (provided that any such Loans acquired by the Parent or the Borrower shall not be deemed a repayment of Loans for purposes of calculating Excess Cash Flow), but only if:

(i) such assignment is made pursuant to (x) a Dutch Auction open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis or (y) notwithstanding Section 5.08 or any other provision in this Agreement, an open market purchase on a non-pro rata basis;

(ii) no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing or would result therefrom;

(iii) the Parent or its Subsidiary, as applicable, shall at the time of such assignment affirm the No Undisclosed Information Representation; and

(iv) any such Loans shall be automatically and permanently cancelled immediately upon acquisition thereof by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender may assign all or any portion of its Term Loans hereunder to any Debt Fund Affiliate, but only if:

(i) such assignment is made pursuant to an open market purchase; and

(ii) such Debt Fund Affiliate shall at all times after such assignment be subject to the restrictions specified in the final paragraph of Section 14.01.

(l) [Reserved].

(m) The applicable Lender, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of (i) each SPC (other than any SPC that is treated as a disregarded entity of the Granting Lender for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that has exercised its option pursuant to Section 14.07(g) and (ii) each Participant, and the amount of each such SPC’s and Participant’s interest in such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement, including principal amount (and stated interest) (the “Participant Register”). 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 the applicable rights and/or obligations of such Lender under this Agreement.

154

Section 14.08. Confidentiality. The Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors, and other Affiliates (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential in accordance with customary practices); (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Agent, Lender or its respective Affiliates or in connection with any pledge or assignment permitted under Section 14.07(f); (c) in any legal, judicial, administrative proceeding or other compulsory process or otherwise as required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 14.08 (or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower), to any Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; (g) with the consent of the Borrower; (h) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 14.08; (i) to any state, Federal or foreign authority or examiner (including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization) regulating any Lender; (j) to the extent disclosures of such Information is reasonably required by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto), to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations (provided, such counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 14.08 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 14.08), (k) to any rating agency when required by it (it being understood that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Information relating to the Credit Parties received by it from such Lender) or (l) disclosure on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Term Loans. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents, the Commitments, and the Credit Extensions. For the purposes of this Section 14.08, “Information” means all information received from any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof relating to any Credit Party or any Subsidiary thereof relating to any Credit Party or its business, other than (x) any such information that is publicly available to any Agent or any Lender prior to disclosure by any Credit Party other than as a result of a breach of this Section 14.08 and (y) information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry; provided, that, in the case of information received from a Credit Party after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 14.08 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 of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledges that (i) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower, or a Subsidiary of the Parent, as the case may be, (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (iii) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.

155

Section 14.09. Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Credit Party, any such notice being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Credit Party) 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 by, and other Indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the respective Credit Parties against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender hereunder or under any other Credit Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.18 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this Section 14.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent and such Lender may have.

Section 14.10. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Credit Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Credit Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 14.11. Counterparts. This Agreement and each other Credit Document may be executed in one or more counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by telecopier or other electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement and each other Credit Document shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement and such other Credit Document. The Agents may also require that any such documents and signatures delivered by telecopier or other electronic transmission be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by telecopier or other electronic transmission.

156

Section 14.12. Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents 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. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Credit Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided, that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Credit Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Credit Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof. Except as provided in Article 6, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the Lenders and the relevant Credit Parties party hereto.

Section 14.13. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Credit Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by each Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

Section 14.14. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 14.14, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited

Section 14.20. Judgment Currency. If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court or obtaining an order enforcing a judgment, it becomes necessary to convert any amount due under this Agreement in any a currency (hereinafter in this Section 14.21 called the “first currency”) into any other currency (hereinafter in this Section 14.21 called the “second currency”), then the conversion shall be made at the Administrative Agent’s spot rate of exchange for buying the first currency with the second currency prevailing at the Administrative Agent’s close of business on the Business Day next preceding the day on which the judgment is given or (as the case may be) the order is made. Any payment made by a Credit Party to the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Agreement in the second currency shall constitute a discharge of the obligations of any applicable Credit Parties to pay to the Administrative Agent or such Lender any amount originally due in the first currency under this Agreement only to the extent of the amount of the first currency which the Administrative Agent or such Lender is able, on the date of the receipt by it of such payment in any second currency, to purchase, in accordance with the Administrative Agent or such Lender’s normal banking procedures, with the amount of such second currency so received. If the amount of the first currency falls short of the amount originally due in the first currency under this Agreement, the Credit Parties agree that they will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, as applicable, against and save such party harmless from any shortfall so arising. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation of each such Credit Party separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum or sums in respect of amounts due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender under any Credit Documents or under any such judgment or order. Any such shortfall shall be deemed to constitute a loss suffered by the Administrative Agent or such Lender and the Credit Parties shall not be entitled to require any proof or evidence of any actual loss. If the amount of the first currency exceeds the amount originally due in the first currency under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall promptly remit such excess to the Credit Parties. The covenants contained in this 14.21 shall survive the Full Payment of the Obligations under this Agreement.
