in each case, after giving effect, on a Pro Forma Basis, to (1) the relevant Limited Condition Transaction and/or any related Indebtedness (including the intended use of proceeds thereof) and (2) to the extent definitive documents in respect thereof have been executed or the declaration of any notice with respect to any repayment of Indebtedness has been given (which definitive documents, declaration or notice has not terminated or expired without the consummation thereof), any additional Limited Condition Transaction and/or any related Indebtedness (including the intended use of proceeds thereof) that Parent has elected to be determined as set forth in this Section 1.09. If Parent has exercised such an election under this Section 1.09 in respect of any Limited Condition Transaction or related Indebtedness, then, in connection with any subsequent calculation of financial ratios, tests, caps or baskets expressed as a percentage of EBITDA (other than any such test under Section 6.06 or 6.10) on or following the date of determination of whether the relevant condition is satisfied, as elected by Parent in accordance with this Section 1.09, and prior to the earlier of (x) the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction or related Indebtedness is consummated and (y) the date that the definitive agreements, declaration or notice, as applicable, for such Limited Condition Transaction or related Indebtedness are terminated, abandoned, withdrawn or expire, as applicable, without consummation thereof, any such financial ratio, test, cap or basket shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction or related Indebtedness and the other transactions in connection therewith have been consummated.

(d)    within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Facility Loans. Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

SECTION 2.02. Loans and Borrowings

.

(k)Each Revolving Facility Loan and Term Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans under the same Class and of the same Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments under the applicable Facility. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided, that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

(l)Subject to Section 2.15, each Borrowing (other than a Swingline Borrowing) shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Swingline Borrowing shall be an

ABR Borrowing. Each Lender at its option may make any ABR Loan or Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided, that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such Lender shall not be entitled to any amounts payable under Section 2.16 solely in respect of increased costs resulting from such exercise and existing at the time of such exercise.

(m)At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount not less than the Borrowing Minimum and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Facility Borrowing, that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple. Subject to Section 2.04(c) and Section 2.05(e), at the time that each Term Borrowing or Revolving Facility Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is not less than the Borrowing Minimum and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Facility Borrowing, that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple; provided, that an ABR Revolving Facility Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Commitments. Borrowings of more than one Type and under more than one Facility may be outstanding at the same time; provided, that there shall not at any time be more than a total of 10 Eurocurrency Borrowings outstanding under this Agreement.

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

SECTION 2.03. Requests for Borrowings

.

To request a Revolving Facility Borrowing and/or a Term Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m. (x) three Business Days before the date of any proposed Borrowing denominated in Dollars and (y) four Business Days before the date of any proposed Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i)the Class of Loans comprising such Borrowing;

(ii)the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;

(iii)the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(iv)whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; provided that any Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be a Eurocurrency Borrowing;

(v)in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”;

(vi)in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Facility Borrowing, the currency in which such Borrowing is to be denominated (which shall be Dollars or an Alternative Currency); and

(vii)the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed.

If no election as to the currency of any Revolving Facility Borrowing is made, then the requested Borrowing shall be made in Dollars. If no election as to the Type of Revolving Facility Borrowing or Term Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be (x) an ABR Borrowing in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars or (y) a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration in the case of Revolving Facility Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.04. Swingline Loans

.

(o)The Swingline. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, agree, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Revolving Facility Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, to make loans in Dollars (each such loan, a “Swingline Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the Swingline Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swingline Loans, when aggregated with the Revolving Facility Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Facility Loans and L/C Obligations of the Revolving Facility Lender acting as Swingline Lender, may exceed the amount of such

Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swingline Loan, (i) the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure shall not exceed the total Revolving Facility Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate Revolving Facility Credit Exposure of any Revolving Facility Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) shall not exceed such Revolving Facility Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment, and provided, further, that the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swingline Loan to refinance any outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.12, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swingline Loan, each Revolving Facility Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swingline Lender a risk participation in such Swingline Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage times the amount of such Swingline Loan.

(p)Borrowing Procedures. Each Swingline Borrowing shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000 and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swingline Borrowing Request, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Swingline Lender of any telephonic Swingline Loan request, the Swingline Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swingline Loan request and, if not, the Swingline Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swingline Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swingline Borrowing (A) directing the Swingline Lender not to make such Swingline Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the provisos to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.01 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender may, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swingline Borrowing Request, make the amount of its Swingline Loan available to the Borrower at the account of the Borrower specified in such Swingline Borrowing Request.

(q)Refinancing of Swingline Loans.

(i)    The Swingline Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swingline Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Revolving Facility Lender make an ABR Revolving Loan in an amount equal to such Revolving Facility Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount of Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Borrowing Request for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the Borrowing Minimum and Borrowing Multiples, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Revolving Facility Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.01. The Swingline Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Borrowing Request promptly after (other than the delivery of a Borrowing Request) delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Facility Lender shall make an amount equal to its Revolving Facility Percentage of the amount specified in such Borrowing Request available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral available with respect to the applicable Swingline Loan) for the account of the Swingline Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office for Dollar-denominated payments not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Borrowing Request, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Revolving Facility Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made an ABR Revolving Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swingline Lender.

(ii)    If for any reason any Swingline Loan cannot be refinanced by such an ABR Revolving Facility Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for ABR Revolving Loans submitted by the Swingline Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swingline Lender that each of the Revolving Facility Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swingline Loan and each Revolving Facility Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iii)    If any Revolving Facility Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Facility Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swingline Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swingline Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swingline Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Revolving Facility Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s ABR Revolving Loan included in the relevant ABR Revolving Facility Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swingline Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the

Swingline Lender submitted to any Revolving Facility Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv)    Each Revolving Facility Lender’s obligation to make ABR Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(ii) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swingline Lender, the Borrower or any other person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Lender’s obligation to make ABR Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.01. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swingline Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(r)Repayment of Participations.

(i)    At any time after any Revolving Facility Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swingline Loan, if the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account of such Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Revolving Facility Lender its Revolving Facility Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swingline Lender.

(ii)    If any payment received by the Swingline Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swingline Loan is required to be returned by the Swingline Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 8.10 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swingline Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Facility Lender shall pay to the Swingline Lender its Revolving Facility Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swingline Lender. The obligations of the Revolving Facility Lenders under this clause shall be absolute and unconditional and survive Payment in Full and the termination of this Agreement.

(s)Interest for Account of Swingline Lender. The Swingline Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swingline Loans. Until each Revolving Facility Lender funds its ABR Revolving Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Revolving Facility Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of any Swingline Loan, interest in respect of such Revolving Facility Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swingline Lender.

(t)Payments Directly to Swingline Lender. The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swingline Loans directly to the Swingline Lender.

SECTION 2.05. Letters of Credit

.

(u)General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, in addition to the Loans provided for in Section 2.01, the Borrower may request that the L/C Issuer, in reliance on the agreements of the Revolving Facility Lenders set forth in this Section 2.05, issue, at any time and from time to time during the period from and including the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or in one or more L/C Alternative Currencies for its own account or the account of any of its Subsidiaries in such form as is acceptable to the L/C Issuer in its reasonable determination. Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall constitute utilization of the Revolving Facility Commitments. All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.

(v)Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Extension, Reinstatement or Renewal.

(i)To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment of the terms and conditions, extension of the terms and conditions, extension of the expiration date, or reinstatement of amounts paid, or renewal of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall deliver (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the L/C Issuer) to the L/C Issuer and to the Administrative Agent not later than (i) in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars, 11:00 a.m. at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be and (ii) in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an L/C Alternative Currency, 11:00 a.m. at least four Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be, in each case, a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, extended, reinstated or renewed, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, extension, reinstatement or renewal (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with clause (d) of this Section 2.05), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof, the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit and such other

information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, extend, reinstate or renew such Letter of Credit. If requested by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower also shall submit a Letter of Credit Application and reimbursement agreement on the L/C Issuer’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of Letter of Credit Application and reimbursement agreement or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the L/C Issuer relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

(ii)If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application (or the amendment of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a standby Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon by the Borrower and the L/C Issuer at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Facility Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the date permitted pursuant to Section 2.05(d); provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not (x) permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its extended form under the terms hereof except that the expiration date may be extended to a date that is no more than one year from the then-current expiration date, or (y) it has received notice (which may be in writing or by telephone (if promptly confirmed in writing)) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent that the Required Class Lenders under the Revolving Facility have elected not to permit such extension or (ii) be obligated to permit such extension if it has received notice (which may be in writing or by telephone (if promptly confirmed in writing)) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Facility Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.01 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.

(iii)If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a standby Letter of Credit that permits the automatic reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof after any drawing thereunder (each, an “Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit”). Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer to permit such reinstatement. Once an Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit has been issued, except as provided in the following sentence, the Revolving Facility Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to reinstate all or a portion of the stated amount thereof in accordance with the provisions of such Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit permits the L/C Issuer to decline to reinstate all or any portion of the stated amount thereof after a drawing thereunder by giving notice of such non-reinstatement within a specified number of days after such drawing (the “Non-Reinstatement Deadline”), the L/C Issuer shall not permit such reinstatement if it has received a notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is five Business Days before the Non-Reinstatement Deadline (A) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Class Lenders under the Revolving Facility have elected not to permit such reinstatement or (B) from the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Facility Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.01 is not then satisfied (treating such reinstatement as an L/C Credit Extension for purposes of this clause) and, in each case, directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such reinstatement.

(w)Limitations on Amounts, Issuance and Amendment. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, extended, reinstated or renewed only if (and upon issuance, amendment, extension, reinstatement or renewal of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, extension, reinstatement or renewal (x) the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit that would be in effect at any time prior to the expiration of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time (after giving effect to the scheduled maturity of any Revolving Facility Commitment occurring prior to the expiration of all such Letters of Credit), (y) the total Revolving Facility Credit Exposure shall not exceed the total Revolving Facility Commitments at any time prior to the expiration of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time (after giving effect to the scheduled maturity of any Revolving Facility Commitment occurring prior to the expiration of all such Letters of Credit) and (z) no Lender’s Revolving Facility Credit Exposure shall exceed such Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitments.

(i)The L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(A)any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Change in Law shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the L/C Issuer in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it;

(B)the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the L/C Issuer applicable to letters of credit;

(C)except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $100,000, in the case of a commercial Letter of Credit, or $100,000, in the case of a standby Letter of Credit;

(D)except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars or an L/C Alternative Currency;

(E)such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or

(F)a default of any Revolving Facility Lender’s obligations to fund under Section 2.05(f) exists or any Revolving Facility Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender hereunder, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrower or such Revolving Facility Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s risk with respect to such Revolving Facility Lender, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion) with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.27) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which the L/C Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion.

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

(iii)The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if the L/C Issuer would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof.

(x)Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall have a stated expiration date no later than the earlier of (i) the date twelve months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any extension of the expiration date thereof, whether automatic or by amendment, twelve months after the then‑current expiration date of such Letter of Credit) and (ii) the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless such expiring date shall be approved, with respect to clause (i), by the L/C Issuer and the Required Revolving Lenders or, with respect to clause (ii), by the L/C Issuer and all of the Revolving Facility Lenders.

(y)Participations.

(i)By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount or extending the expiration date thereof), and without any further action on the part of the L/C Issuer or the Lenders, the L/C Issuer hereby grants to each Revolving Facility Lender, and each Revolving Facility Lender hereby acquires from the L/C Issuer, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Each Revolving Facility Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this clause (e) in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, extension, reinstatement or renewal of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Facility Commitments.

(ii)In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Facility Lender hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the L/C Issuer, such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by the L/C Issuer not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in the notice provided by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Facility Lenders pursuant to Section 2.05(f) until such L/C Disbursement is reimbursed by the Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason, including after the Revolving Facility Maturity Date. Such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each such payment shall be made in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Facility Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.05), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the L/C Issuer the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.05(f), the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the L/C Issuer or, to the extent that the Revolving Facility Lenders have made payments pursuant to this clause (e) to reimburse the L/C Issuer, then to such Lenders and the L/C Issuer as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this clause (e) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any L/C Disbursement shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement.

(iii)Each Revolving Facility Lender further acknowledges and agrees that its participation in each Letter of Credit will be automatically adjusted to reflect such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit at each time such Lender's Revolving Facility Commitment is amended pursuant to the operation of Section 2.22 or 2.25, as a result of an assignment in accordance with Section 9.04 or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement.

(iv)If any Revolving Facility Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.05(e), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the L/C Issuer in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus

any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Facility Loan included in the relevant Revolving Facility Borrowing or L/C Disbursement Participation. A certificate of the L/C Issuer submitted to any Revolving Facility Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (e)(iv) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(z)Reimbursement. If the L/C Issuer shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer in respect of such L/C Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice of such L/C Disbursement, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m. or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time; provided that, if such L/C Disbursement is not less than Borrowing Minimum, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or Section 2.04 that such payment be financed with a Borrowing of ABR Loans or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Borrowing of ABR Loans or Swingline Loan. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an L/C Alternative Currency, the Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer in Dollars, unless the L/C Issuer shall have specified in such notice that it will accept reimbursement in the L/C Alternative Currency in which such Letter of Credit was so denominated. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in an L/C Alternative Currency, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Facility Lender of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof (the “Unreimbursed L/C Disbursement”) and such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage thereof. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans to be disbursed on the date of payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed L/C Disbursement, without regard to the Borrowing Minimum or Borrowing Multiple for the principal amount of ABR Revolving Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the aggregate Revolving Facility Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 (other than the delivery of a Borrowing Request). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.05(f) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(aa)Obligations Absolute.

(i)The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Disbursement shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(A)any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any Letter of Credit, or any term or provision herein or therein;

(B)the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

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

(D)waiver by the L/C Issuer of any requirement that exists for the L/C Issuer’s protection and not the protection of the Borrower or any waiver by the L/C Issuer which does not in fact materially prejudice the Borrower;

(E)honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft;

(F)any payment made by the L/C Issuer in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under such Letter of Credit if presentation after such date is authorized by the UCC, the ISP or the UCP, as applicable;

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

(H)any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant L/C Alternative Currency to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally;

(I)any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any other Loan Document; or

(J)any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

(ii)The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(iii)None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, or any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit by the L/C Issuer or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in translation or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the L/C Issuer; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the L/C Issuer from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the L/C Issuer’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the L/C Issuer (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the L/C Issuer shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination, and that:

(A)the L/C Issuer may replace a purportedly lost, stolen, or destroyed original Letter of Credit or missing amendment thereto with a certified true copy marked as such or waive a requirement for its presentation;

(B)the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit and without regard to any non-documentary condition in such Letter of Credit;

(C)the L/C Issuer shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and

(D)this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by the L/C Issuer when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).

Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, or any of their Related Parties shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of (i) any presentation that includes forged or fraudulent documents or that is otherwise affected by the fraudulent, bad faith, or illegal conduct of the beneficiary or other Person, (ii) the L/C Issuer declining to take-up documents and make payment (A) against documents that are fraudulent, forged, or for other reasons by which that it is entitled not to honor or (B) following a Borrower’s waiver of discrepancies with respect to such documents or request for honor of such documents or (iii) the L/C Issuer retaining proceeds of a Letter of Credit based on an apparently applicable attachment order, blocking regulation, or third-party claim notified to such L/C Issuer.

(ab)Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (the “UCP”), as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible to the Borrower for, and the L/C Issuer’s rights and remedies against the Borrower shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the L/C Issuer required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the Law or any order of a jurisdiction where the L/C Issuer or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.

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

(ad)Disbursement Procedures. The L/C Issuer for any Letter of Credit shall, within the time allowed by applicable laws or the specific terms of the Letter of Credit following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit. The L/C Issuer shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent

and the Borrower in writing of such demand for payment if the L/C Issuer has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the L/C Issuer and the Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement.

(ae)Interim Interest. If the L/C Issuer for any Letter of Credit shall make any L/C Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such L/C Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such L/C Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that if the Borrower fails to reimburse such L/C Disbursement when due pursuant to Section 2.05(f), then Section 2.14(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this clause (k) shall be for the account of the L/C Issuer, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.05(f) to reimburse the L/C Issuer shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

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

(ag)Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

SECTION 2.06. [Reserved]

.

SECTION 2.07. Funding of Borrowings

.

(ah)Each Lender shall make each Term Loan or Revolving Facility Loan to be made by it hereunder available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the applicable currency not later than 1:00 p.m., in the case of any Loan denominated in Dollars, and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Revolving Facility Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency, in each case on the Business Day specified in the applicable Borrowing Request. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower as specified in the Borrowing Request; provided, however, that if, on the date the Borrowing Request with respect to a Revolving Facility Borrowing denominated in Dollars is given by the Borrower, there are Unreimbursed L/C Disbursements outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the payment in full of any such Unreimbursed L/C Disbursements, and, second, shall be made available to the Borrower as provided above.

(ai)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of ABR Loans, prior to 12:00 noon 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 2.07(a) (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 2.07(a)) 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 Same Day 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 (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans under the applicable Facility. 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.

SECTION 2.08. Interest Elections

.

(aj)Each Borrowing of Revolving Facility Loans or Term Loans initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section; provided, that except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrency Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Loan. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Revolving Facility Borrowing or Term Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency may only be made, and maintained, as Eurocurrency Loans.

(ak)To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in the form of Exhibit D and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.

(al)Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

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

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

(iii)whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and

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

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

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

(an)If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing; provided, that any Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency shall instead be continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as a Default or Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall (A) in the case of such a Borrowing made in Dollars, be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (B) in the case of such a Borrowing made in an Alternative Currency be continued as a Eurocurrency Revolving Facility Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments

.

(ao)Unless previously terminated, (i) the Revolving Facility Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date, (ii) the Term A Loan Commitments shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the funding of the Term A Loans on the Closing Date, and (iii) Term A Loan Commitments shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the funding of the Term A Loans on the Closing Date.

(ap)The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce the Revolving Facility Commitments; provided, that (i) each such reduction shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 (or, if less, the remaining amount of the Revolving Facility Commitments), (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the

Revolving Facility Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.12, (x) the total Revolving Facility Credit Exposure would exceed the total Revolving Facility Commitments, (y) the aggregate principal amount of Swingline Loans would exceed the Swingline Sublimit or (z) the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations not fully Cash Collateralized hereunder would exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit and (iii) each reduction shall be applied ratably among all Classes of Revolving Facility Commitments.

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

SECTION 2.10. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt

.

(ar)The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Revolving Facility Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each applicable Revolving Facility Loan to the Borrower on the applicable Revolving Facility Maturity Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.11, and (iii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the Latest Revolving Facility Maturity Date.

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

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

(au)The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(av)Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note (a “Note”). In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender or its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Thereafter, unless otherwise agreed to by the applicable Lender, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein or its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.11. Repayment of Term Loans and Revolving Facility Loans

(ax)To the extent not previously paid, outstanding Revolving Facility Loans shall be due and payable on the applicable Revolving Facility Maturity Date.

(ay)(i) Any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(b) and (c) shall be applied so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated among each Class of Term Loans pro rata based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loans, irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, with the application of such mandatory prepayment within each Class of Term Loans applied to the remaining installments of such Class on a pro rata basis among such remaining installments (except that any mandatory prepayment with Net Proceeds described in clause (b) of the definition of “Net Proceeds” shall be applied to such remaining installments in direct order of maturity). Prior to the repayment of any Term Loan, the Borrower may select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid (subject to the foregoing) and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of such selection not later than 1:00 p.m. (i) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, one Business Day before the scheduled date of such repayment and (ii) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment; and

(ii)    Any optional prepayments of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(a) shall be applied to the remaining installments of the Term Loans as the Borrower may direct under the applicable Class or Classes of Term Loans as the Borrower may direct.

SECTION 2.12. Prepayment of Loans

.

(az)The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Loan in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (except as set forth in this Section and Section 2.17), in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum or, if less, the principal amount of Loans of any Class outstanding, upon prior notice to the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) (x) in the case of an ABR Loan, not less than one Business Day prior to the date of prepayment, (y) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars, not less than three Business Days prior to the date of prepayment and (z) in the case of a Eurocurrency Revolving Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency, not less than four Business Days prior to the date of prepayment. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.12(a) shall be irrevocable; provided, that such notice may state that it is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Each such notice shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Class(es) and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Eurocurrency Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of such prepayment. In the event that, on or prior to the date which is six months after the Closing Date, the Borrower makes any prepayment or amendment of Term B Loans in connection with any Repricing Transaction (other than in connection with a Change of Control or Transformative Acquisition), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of the Term B Lenders, a prepayment premium of 1% of the amount of the Term B Loans being so prepaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced or amended.

(ba)Subject to Section 2.12(e) and (f), the Borrower shall apply 100% of all Net Proceeds promptly upon receipt thereof by Parent or any Subsidiary to prepay Loans in accordance with clause (c) of Section 2.11; provided that, with respect to Net Proceeds from Asset Sales, the Borrower may use a portion of such Net Proceeds to prepay or repurchase Other First Lien Debt (to the extent required by the terms of such Other First Lien Debt) in an amount not to exceed the product of (x) the amount of such Net Proceeds multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of the Other First Lien Debt and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of such Other First Lien Debt and the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans.

(bb)Subject to Section 2.12(e) and (f), within five Business Days after financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(a) and the related Compliance Certificate has been delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(c) for any Excess Cash Flow Period, the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans equal to (i) the Applicable ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such Excess Cash Flow Period less (ii) (x) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans prepaid pursuant to Section 2.12(a) or Section 2.12(g) (in the amount of actual cash expended), excluding (A) any prepayments funded with proceeds of long-term indebtedness (other than Revolving Facility Loans) or issuances of Equity Interests and (B) prepayments applied to amortization payments on the Term Loans due in such Excess Cash Flow Period, and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Facility Loans prepaid pursuant to Section 2.12(a) to the extent the Revolving Facility Commitments are correspondingly reduced pursuant to Section 2.09, in each case, during such Excess Cash Flow Period or after the end of such Excess Cash Flow Period but before the prepayment under this Section 2.12(c) for such period is due; provided that no such prepayment shall be due if the Applicable ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such Excess Cash Flow Period is less than $10,000,000.

(bc)If the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower at any time (including on any Revaluation Date) that the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure at such time exceeds an amount equal to 105% of the Revolving Facility Commitments then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Facility Loans and/or the Swingline Loans and/or the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount (allocated among the Revolving Facility Loans, Swingline Loans and/or L/C Obligations as selected by the Borrower) sufficient to reduce the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Revolving Facility Commitments then in effect. The Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to time after any such initial deposit of such Cash Collateral, require that additional Cash Collateral be provided in order to protect against the results of further exchange rate fluctuations.

(bd)Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, not less than three Business Days prior to the date (the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which the Borrower is required to make any Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, the Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of the amount subject to such prepayment requirement, and Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Term Loan of the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment and such Lender’s option to refuse such amount. Each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent of its election to do so on or before the second Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender which does not notify the Administrative Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the first Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, to accept the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment). On the Required Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent the amount of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment less the amount of the Declined Amounts, which amount shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to prepay the Term Loans of those Lenders that have elected to accept such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment (which prepayment shall be applied to the scheduled installments of principal of the Term Loans in the applicable Class(es) of Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.11(c)), and (ii) the

Borrower may retain a portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment otherwise payable to those Lenders that have elected to exercise such option and decline such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Amounts”). Such Declined Amounts retained by the Borrower may be used for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by this Agreement.

(be)Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.12 to the contrary, (i) to the extent that any repatriation (or other intercompany distribution or transfer) to the Borrower, directly or indirectly, from a Subsidiary organized outside the United States and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico as a distribution or dividend (or other intercompany transfer) of any amount required to mandatorily prepay the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(b) or (c) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to Puerto Rico, the portion of any such amount so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.12(b) or (c), as applicable, for so long, but only for so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (the Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Subsidiary to promptly use commercially reasonable efforts to take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected amount is permitted under the applicable local law, such affected amount will be promptly applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(b) or (c), as applicable, to the extent provided herein, (ii) to the extent that the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation (or other intercompany distribution or transfer) to the Borrower, directly or indirectly, from a Subsidiary organized outside the United States and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico as a distribution or dividend (or other intercompany transfer) of any amount required to mandatorily prepay the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(b) or (c) would have a material adverse tax cost consequence with respect to such affected amount, such amount so affected need not be prepaid at such time and (iii) to the extent that the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation to the Borrower, directly or indirectly, from a Subsidiary organized outside the United States and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico would give rise to a risk of liability for the directors of such Subsidiaries; provided that, in the case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), Parent and its Subsidiaries shall take commercially reasonable actions under applicable law to permit such repatriation and without material adverse tax consequences and without giving rise to risk of liability for the directors of the applicable Subsidiaries. The portion of any mandatory prepayment that may be subject to the operation of this Section 2.12(f) shall be limited (A) in the case of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.12(b), to the Net Proceeds received by a Subsidiary that is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico in respect of an Asset Sale by such Subsidiary and (B) in the case of any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.12(c), to the portion of the applicable Excess Cash Flow attributable to Subsidiaries that are not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

(bf)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.12 or any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower may prepay any Class or Classes of outstanding Term Loans (each, an “Auction Prepayment Offer”) at a discount to par pursuant to one or more auctions (each, an “Auction”) on the following basis (any such prepayment, an “Auction Prepayment”):

(i)All Term Lenders (other than Defaulting Lenders) of the applicable Class or Classes shall be permitted (but not required) to participate in each Auction. Any such Lender who elects to participate in an Auction may choose to offer all or part of such Lender’s Term Loans of the applicable Class for prepayment. Each Term Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within the period specified in the offer if it determines to participate in such Auction.

(ii)Each Auction Prepayment shall be subject to the conditions that (A) the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to the effect that (I) immediately prior to and after giving effect to the Auction Prepayment and on the date of any delivery of an Auction Notice (as defined in Exhibit C), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (II) as of the date of the Auction Notice, the Borrower is not in possession of any material non-public information with respect to Parent or any of its subsidiaries that (x) has not been disclosed to the Lenders (other than Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Parent or any of its subsidiaries) prior to such date and (y) if not disclosed to the Lenders, could reasonably be expected to have a material effect (whether negative or positive) upon, or otherwise be material to, (1) a Lender’s decision to participate in any Auction or (2) the market price of the Term Loans subject to such Auction, (III) each of the conditions to such Auction Prepayment has been satisfied and (IV) the Borrower shall be in Pro Forma Compliance after giving effect to the Auction Prepayment, (B) immediately prior to and after giving effect to the Auction Prepayment, the sum of the unused Revolving Facility Commitments plus unrestricted cash and cash equivalents held by Loan Parties shall not be less than $25,000,000, (C) each offer of prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.12(g) must be in an amount not less than $1,000,000 in principal amount of Term Loans, calculated on the face amount thereof unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent, (D) no Auction Prepayment shall be made from the proceeds of any Revolving Facility Loan or Swingline Loan, (E) any Auction Prepayment shall be offered to all Lenders with Term Loans on a pro rata basis, (F) all Term Loans so prepaid by the Borrower shall automatically be canceled and retired by the Borrower on the applicable settlement date (and for the avoidance of doubt, may not be reborrowed) and (G) no more than one Auction Prepayment Offer may be ongoing at any one time and no more than five Auction Prepayment Offers may be made in any one fiscal year (unless the Administrative Agent consents in its reasonable discretion).

(iii)The Borrower must terminate any Auction Prepayment Offer if it fails to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above in Section 2.12(g)(ii) that are required to be met at the time at which the Term Loans would have been prepaid pursuant

to such Auction Prepayment Offer. If the Borrower commences any Auction Prepayment Offer (and all relevant requirements set forth above that are required to be satisfied at the time of the commencement of such Auction Prepayment Offer have in fact been satisfied), and if at such time of commencement the Borrower reasonably believes that all required conditions set forth above that are required to be satisfied at the time of the consummation of such Auction Prepayment Offer shall be satisfied, then the Borrower shall have no liability to any Term Lender or any other person for any termination of such Auction Prepayment Offer as a result of its failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above that are required to be met at the time that otherwise would have been the time of consummation of such Auction Prepayment Offer, and any such failure shall not result in any Default or Event of Default hereunder. All Term Loans prepaid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.12(g) shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the par principal amount so prepaid to, but not including, the date of the Auction Prepayment. The par principal amount of Term Loans prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.12(g) shall be applied to reduce the final installment payment of principal thereof pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv), as applicable.

(iv)Each Auction shall comply with the Auction Procedures and any such other procedures established by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion and agreed to by the Borrower.

(v)The Auction Manager acting in its capacity as such hereunder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of Article VIII and Section 9.05 to the same extent as if each reference therein to the “Administrative Agent” were a reference to the Auction Manager, and the Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the Auction Manager as reasonably requested by the Auction Manager in order to enable it to perform its responsibilities and duties in connection with each Auction Prepayment Offer.

(vi)This Section 2.12(g) shall neither (A) require the Borrower to undertake any Auction nor (B) limit or restrict the Borrower from making voluntary prepayments of Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.12(a).

SECTION 2.13. Fees

(bg)The Borrower agrees to pay to each Revolving Facility Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender), through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year, and the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments of all the Revolving Facility Lenders shall be terminated as provided herein, a commitment fee in Dollars (the “Commitment Fee”) on the actual daily amount of the Available Unused Commitment of such Lender under the Revolving Facility during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the Closing Date or ending with the date on which the last of the Revolving Facility Commitments of such Lender shall be terminated) at a rate equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. For the purpose of calculating any Revolving Facility Lender’s Commitment Fee, the outstanding Swingline Loans during the period for which such Revolving Facility Lender’s Commitment Fee is calculated shall be deemed to be zero. The Commitment Fee due to each Revolving Facility Lender shall commence to accrue on the Closing Date and shall cease to accrue on the date on which the last of the Commitments of such Revolving Facility Lender shall be terminated as provided herein.

(bh)The Borrower from time to time agrees to pay (i) to each Revolving Facility Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender), through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments of all the Lenders shall be terminated as provided herein, a fee in Dollars (an “L/C Participation Fee”) on such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the daily aggregate Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations (excluding the portion thereof attributable to Unreimbursed L/C Disbursements in respect of Letters of Credit) during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Closing Date or ending with the Revolving Facility Maturity Date or the date on which the applicable Revolving Facility Commitments shall be terminated) at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Revolving Facility Borrowings effective for each day in such period and (ii) directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee (x) with respect to each commercial Letter of Credit, at a rate per annum equal to the percentage separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the L/C Issuer, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such Letter of Credit, and payable upon the issuance thereof, (y) with respect to any amendment of a commercial Letter of Credit increasing the amount of such Letter of Credit, at a rate separately agreed between the Borrower and the L/C Issuer, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such increase, and payable upon the effectiveness of such amendment, and (z) with respect to each standby Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum equal to 0.25%, computed on the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a quarterly basis in arrears (collectively under this clause (ii), “L/C Issuer Fees”). Such L/C Issuer Fees shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December in respect of the most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date and thereafter on demand. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable. All L/C Participation Fees and L/C Issuer Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

(bi)During the period commencing at the time any Lender became a Defaulting Lender until such time, if any, as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, no Commitment Fee shall accrue with respect to any of the applicable Revolving Facility Commitments of such Defaulting Lender. Any Commitment Fees owing to any Defaulting Lender which accrued during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall be deferred and shall be payable only if and when such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender.

(bj)The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Administrative Agent, the agency fees set forth in the Fee Letter, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, at the times specified therein (the “Administrative Agent Fees”).

(bk)All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that L/C Issuer Fees shall be paid directly to the applicable L/C Issuers and Administrative Agent Fees shall be for the account of the Administrative Agent. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.14. Interest

.

(bl)The Revolving Facility Loans (including each Swingline Loan), the Term A Loans and the Term B Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at (i) the ABR plus (ii) the Applicable Margin.

(bm)The Revolving Facility Loans, the Term A Loans and Term B Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at (i) the Eurocurrency Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus (ii) the Applicable Margin.

(bn)Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any Fees or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section; provided, that this paragraph (c) shall not apply to any Event of Default that has been waived by the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.08.

(bo)Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears (i) on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan, (ii) in the case of Revolving Facility Loans, upon termination of the applicable Revolving Facility Commitments and (iii) in the case of the Term Loans, on the applicable Term Facility Maturity Date; provided, that (x) interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.14(c) shall be payable on demand, and (y) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan and any Swingline Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment.

(bp)Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, all interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (i) interest computed by reference to the ABR at times when the ABR is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and (ii) in the case of interest in respect of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as to which market practice (as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent) differs from the foregoing, such interest will be calculated in accordance with such market practice, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable ABR or Eurocurrency Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.15. Inability to Determine Rates

.

If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:

(a)    the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) deposits in Dollars or the applicable Alternative Currency are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurocurrency market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Loan (the “Impacted Loan”) or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period; or

(b)    the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders or the Required Class Lenders under the Revolving Facility that the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making 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 applicable Lenders by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the applicable Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any

Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in the applicable currency shall be ineffective and (A) in the case of any Borrowing denominated in Dollars, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued as an ABR Borrowing and (B) in the case of any Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Borrowing shall be repaid at the end of the then current Interest Period, and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (a)(i) of the preceding paragraph, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower and the Required Lenders, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans, (2) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans or (3) any Lender reasonably determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the Borrower written notice thereof.

SECTION 2.16. Increased Costs

.

(bq)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 by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Eurocurrency Rate) or L/C Issuer; or

(ii)subject any recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Other Taxes or (C) Excluded Taxes) with respect to its loans, 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 L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; and

the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, continuing, converting to or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan or to increase the cost to such Lender or L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(br)If any Lender or L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or such L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or such L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(bs)A certificate of a Lender or an L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(bt)Promptly after any Lender or any L/C Issuer has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 2.16, such Lender or L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.17. Break Funding Payments

.

In the event of (a) the continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including (i) as a result of an Event of Default, (ii) in connection with any Auction Prepayment or (iii) the occurrence during an Interest Period of a Revolving Facility Maturity Date), (b) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (c) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.20, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to be the amount determined by such Lender (it being understood that the deemed amount shall not exceed the actual amount) to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Eurocurrency Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue a Eurocurrency Loan, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in dollars of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurocurrency market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.18 . Taxes

.

(bu)Unless otherwise required by applicable laws, all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes; provided, that if any applicable withholding agent shall be required to deduct any Taxes in respect of such payments, then (i) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.18) have been made by the applicable withholding agent, the applicable Lender (or, in the case of a payment made to the Administrative Agent for its own account, the Administrative Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction been made, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(bv)In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(bw)The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 10 days after written demand therefor or 5 Business Days before any such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are due (whichever is later), for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes payable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.18), and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other 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 or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf, on behalf of another Agent or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(bx)As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Loan Party 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.

(by)Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax under the law of a jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to any payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to permit such payments to be made without such withholding Tax or at a reduced rate.

(bz)Any Lender 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 as prescribed by applicable law or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), duly executed and properly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable, certifying that it is not subject to U.S. federal backup withholding.

(ca)If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which

such Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.18, it shall pay over such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.18 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined by the Administrative Agent or Lender in good faith and in its sole discretion, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that such Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Loan Parties or any other person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.18(g), in no event will the Administrative Agent or a Lender be required to pay any amount to any Loan Party pursuant to this Section 2.18(g) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as applicable) in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as applicable) would have been in if the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid.

(cb)If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower 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 paragraph (h), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(cc)For all purposes of this Section 2.18, the term “Lender” shall include any Swingline Lender or any L/C Issuer, and the term “applicable law” shall include FATCA.

(cd)Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to deliver to the Loan Parties and to any successor or replacement Administrative Agent any documentation provided by such Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.18.

SECTION 2.19. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs

.

(ce)The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of drawings under Letters of Credit, or of amounts payable under Section 2.16, 2.17, or 2.18, or otherwise) free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any defense, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Revolving Facility Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, 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 applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified herein. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to the applicable L/C Issuer or the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18, 2.26 and 9.05 shall be made directly to the persons entitled thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the continental United States. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Administrative Agent shall, at or before such time,

have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Administrative Agent to make such payment.

(cf)Unless Section 7.02 applies, if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower to pay fully all amounts of principal, Unreimbursed L/C Disbursements interest and fees then due from the Borrower hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due from the Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties and (ii) second, towards payment of principal of Loans, and Unreimbursed L/C Disbursements then due from the Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and Unreimbursed L/C Disbursements then due to such parties.

(cg)If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Term Loans, Revolving Facility Loans, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Term Loans, Revolving Facility Loans, and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase participations in the Term Loans, Revolving Facility Loans, and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Term Loans, Revolving Facility Loans, and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans; provided, that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including Sections 2.12(g), 2.24 and 2.25) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant (other than Parent of any of its subsidiaries) or the application of any Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.26. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(ch)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 or the applicable L/C Issuer hereunder 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 or the applicable L/C Issuer, as applicable, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable L/C Issuer, as applicable, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or L/C Issuer 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 Federal Funds Rate.

(ci)If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(e), 2.07 or 2.19(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(cj)Payments in respect of any Revolving Facility received by the Administrative Agent shall be allocated among the Lenders of each Class of Revolving Facility Commitments ratably, except that, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, payments received on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date of any Class shall be applied to principal of and interest accrued on Revolving Facility Loans of such Class and to fees accrued in respect of Revolving Facility Commitments of such Class and paid to Lenders thereof ratably.

SECTION 2.20. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders

.

(ck)Each Lender may make any Credit Event to the Borrower through any Lending Office, provided that the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay any Obligation in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.16, or requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, then, at the request of the Borrower, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.18, as applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(cl)If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.16, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, and in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with Section 2.20(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided, that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if in respect of any Revolving Facility Commitment or Revolving Facility Loan, the Swingline Lender and the L/C Issuer), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, and participations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.16 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.18, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. Nothing in this Section 2.20 shall be deemed to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender. No action by or consent of the removed Lender shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment the Borrower, Administrative Agent and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.04.

(cm)If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 9.08 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected or of all Lenders and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) at its sole expense (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)(ii)(B)) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by deeming such Non-Consenting Lender to have assigned its Loans and Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to (i) the Administrative Agent (unless, in the case of an assignment of Term Loans, such assignee is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund) and (ii) if in respect of any Revolving Facility Commitment or Revolving Facility Loan, the Swingline Lender and the L/C Issuer; provided, that (without duplication): such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, and funded participations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder including the amount equal to any premium payable pursuant to Section 2.12(a) if such replacement of a Non-Consenting Lender is in connection with a Repricing Transaction as if such assignment were a prepayment, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts (including any such premium)). No action by or consent of the Non-Consenting Lender shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment the Borrower, Administrative Agent and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.04.

SECTION 2.21. Illegality

.

If any Lender reasonably determines that any change in law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted after the Closing Date that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to perform any of its obligations hereunder or make, maintain or fund any Eurocurrency Loans or charge interest with respect to any credit extension at the Eurocurrency Rate in any currency, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligations of such Lender to make or continue Eurocurrency Loans in such currency, to charge interest at the Eurocurrency Rate or to convert ABR Borrowings to Eurocurrency Borrowings shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), either (i) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars if the affected Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Loans as Eurocurrency Loans until the last day of such Interest Period, convert all Eurocurrency Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans on the last day of such Interest Period (or, otherwise, immediately convert such Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans) or (ii) prepay such Eurocurrency Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

SECTION 2.22. Incremental Commitments

.

(a)The Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to seek (w) commitments (“Additional Revolving Commitments”) to increase the Revolving Facility Commitments of any Class, (x) commitments (“Additional Term Loan Commitments”) to increase the aggregate principal amount of any existing Class of Term Loans, (y) commitments

(“Other Term A Loan Commitments”) to establish a Class of Other Term A Loans or (z) commitments (“Other Term B Loan Commitments”) to establish a new Class of Other Term B Loans; provided that:

(i)the aggregate amount of all Incremental Commitments after the Closing Date, together with all Incremental Equivalent Debt incurred after the Closing Date and outstanding at such time, shall not exceed the Incremental Amount;

(ii)any such increase or any new Class shall be in an aggregate amount of $25,000,000 or any whole multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof; provided that such amount may be less than $25,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in the preceding clause (i);

(iii)no existing Lender shall be required to provide any Incremental Commitments;

(iv)except as to amortization and final maturity date (which shall, subject to clauses (vii), (viii) and (x) of this proviso, be determined by the Borrower and the Incremental Term Lenders in their sole discretion), the Other Term A Loans shall have (x) the same terms as the Term A Loans (including with respect to pricing) or (y) terms that are less favorable to the Incremental Term Lenders providing such Other Term A Loans than the terms of the Term A Loans in the reasonable determination of the Administrative Agent, except to the extent such provisions apply only after the Term A Facility Maturity Date or such other provisions apply equally for the benefit of the Term A Lenders (including with respect to pricing) and, to the extent applicable (other than pricing and amortization), the Revolving Facility Lenders;

(v)except as to pricing, amortization and final maturity date (which shall, subject to clauses (vii), (viii), (x) and (xii) of this proviso, be determined by the Borrower and the Incremental Term Lenders in their sole discretion), the Other Term B Loans shall have (x) the same terms as the Term B Loans or (y) such other terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; provided that (a) the covenants and other terms applicable to Other Term B Loans shall not be materially more favorable (when taken as a whole) to the Incremental Term Lenders providing the Other Term B Loans than those applicable to any Facility then outstanding (except to the extent such terms apply only after the Latest Maturity Date or such covenants or other terms apply equally for the benefit of the other Lenders) and (b) at the sole discretion of the Borrower and the Incremental Term Lenders providing the Other Term B Loans, any prepayment premium for the existing Term B Loans may be increased or the period applicable thereto may be extended to be the same as Other Term B Loans;

(vi)as of each date of borrowing under any Additional Term Loan Commitments, Other Term A Loan Commitments or Other Term B Loan Commitments or effectiveness of Additional Revolving Commitments, (A) each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 shall be satisfied and (B) Parent shall be in Pro Forma Compliance (assuming all Revolving Facility Commitments are fully drawn and without netting the cash proceeds of any Incremental Commitments being funded on such date in calculating the Total Secured Net Leverage Ratio);

(vii)the final maturity date of any Other Term A Loan shall be no earlier than the Term A Facility Maturity Date, and the final maturity date of any Other Term B Loan shall be no earlier than the Term B Facility Maturity Date;

(viii)the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Other Term A Loan shall not be shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the existing Term A Loans, and the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Other Term B Loans shall not be shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the existing Term B Loans;

(ix)(A) the security interest and guaranties benefiting the Incremental Term Loans will rank pari passu in right of payment and security with the existing Facilities, (B) no Person shall guarantee the obligations with respect to any Incremental Term Loans unless such Person is a Loan Party and (C) no Incremental Term Loans will be secured by any property that does not constitute Collateral under the existing Facilities;

(x)the Other Term A Loans shall share on a pro rata basis (or if agreed by the Incremental Term Lenders providing such Other Term A Loans, on a less than pro rata basis) in any mandatory prepayment or voluntary prepayment of the Term A Loans hereunder, and the Other Term B Loans shall share on a pro rata basis (or if agreed by the Incremental Term Lenders providing such Other Term B Loans, on a less than pro rata basis) in any mandatory prepayment or voluntary prepayment of the Term B Loans hereunder;

(xi)the Additional Revolving Commitments shall have the same terms as the Revolving Facility Commitments that is being increased (except that the Lenders providing Additional Revolving Commitments may receive customary upfront fees in connection therewith), and the Additional Term Loans shall have the same terms as the Term Loans of the Class that is being increased; and

(xii)in the event that the Applicable Margin for any Other Term B Loans is greater than the Applicable Margin for the existing Term B Loans by more than 50 basis points, then the Applicable Margin for the existing Term B Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Applicable Margin (at each analogous point in the Pricing Grid, if applicable) for the Other Term B Loans is 50 basis points higher than the Applicable Margin for the existing Term B Loans; provided that in determining the Applicable Margin applicable to the existing Term B Loans and Other Term B Loans, (x) original issue discount or upfront or similar fees (collectively, “OID”) payable by Parent or any of its subsidiaries to the Lenders of the existing Term B Loans or the Other Term B Loans, in the primary syndication thereof shall be included (with OID being equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity), (y) customary arrangement or commitment fees payable to arrangers (or their respective affiliates) shall be excluded; and (z) if the ABR or Eurocurrency Rate “floor” for the Other Term B Loans is greater than the ABR or Eurocurrency Rate “floor,” respectively, for the existing Term B Loans the difference between such floor for the Other Term B Loans and the existing Term B Loans shall be equated to an increase in the Applicable

Margin for purposes of this clause (xii) (but shall result in an increase in the “floor” (not the Applicable Margin) of the existing Term B Loan if this provision is triggered).

(b)Each such notice shall specify (x) the date (each, an “Incremental Commitments Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Incremental Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a Business Day and (y) the identity of the Persons (each of which shall be an Eligible Person and the consent of the Persons specified in Section 9.04(b)(i) shall have been received with respect thereto to the extent as would be required if the Lender of the Incremental Commitment were an assignee) whom the Borrower proposes would provide the Incremental Commitments and the portion of the Incremental Commitment to be provided by each such Person. As a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any Incremental Commitments, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Officer’s Certificate certifying that, before and after giving effect to the Incremental Commitments (and assuming full utilization thereof) the requirements of Section 2.22(a) are satisfied, and setting forth the calculation of the available Incremental Amount.

(c)On each Incremental Commitments Effective Date, each Incremental Term Lender shall make an Incremental Term Loan of the applicable Class to the Borrower in a principal amount equal to its Incremental Term Loan Commitment. The Borrower shall prepay any Revolving Facility Loans outstanding on the Incremental Commitments Effective Date with respect to any Additional Revolving Commitment (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.17) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Facility Loans pro rata across all Classes of Revolving Facility Commitments arising from any nonratable increase in the Revolving Facility Commitments. If there is a new borrowing of Revolving Facility Loans on such Incremental Commitments Effective Date, the Revolving Facility Lenders after giving effect to such Additional Revolving Commitments shall make such Revolving Facility Loans in accordance with Section 2.01(c).

(d)The Incremental Commitments shall be documented by an Additional Credit Extension Amendment executed by the Persons providing the Incremental Commitments (and the other Persons specified in the definition of Additional Credit Extension Amendment but no other existing Lender), and the Additional Credit Extension Amendment may provide for such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan 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 2.22.

(e)This Section 2.22 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.19 or Section 9.08 to the contrary.

SECTION 2.23. Extended Term Loans and Extended Revolving Commitments

.

(a)The Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Term Loans of any Class (the Loans of such applicable Class, the “Existing Term Loans”) be converted into a new Class of Term Loans (the Loans of such applicable Class, the “Extended Term Loans”) in accordance with this Section 2.23(a). In order to establish any Extended Term Loans, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (a “Term Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which shall be identical to those applicable to the Existing Term Loans from which such Extended Term Loans are to be converted except that:

(i)the maturity date of the Extended Term Loans shall be later than the maturity date of the Existing Term Loans, and the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Extended Term Loans shall be longer than the then remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Existing Term Loans;

(ii)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 Existing Term Loans;

(iii)(A) the interest rates (including through fixed interest rates), interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, OID and premiums with respect to the Extended Term Loans may be different than those for the Existing Term Loans and/or (B) additional fees and/or premiums may be payable to the Extending Lenders providing such Extended Term Loans in addition to or in lieu of any of the items contemplated by the preceding clause (A);

(iv)the Extended Term Loans may have optional prepayment terms (including call protection and prepayment premiums) and mandatory prepayment terms as may be agreed between the Borrower and the Extending Lenders so long as such Extended Term Loans do not participate on a greater than pro rata basis in any such mandatory prepayments as compared to existing Term Lenders of the applicable Class; and

(v)the Borrower and its Subsidiaries may be subject to covenants and other terms for the benefit of the Extending Lenders that apply only after the Latest Maturity Date (before giving effect to the Extended Term Loans).

(b)The Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Revolving Facility Commitments of any Class (the Commitments of such applicable Class, the “Existing Revolving Commitments”) be converted into a new Class of Revolving Facility Commitments (the Commitments of such applicable Class, the “Extended Revolving Commitments”) in accordance with this Section 2.23(b). In order to establish any Extended Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (a “Revolving Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Commitments to be established, which shall be identical to those applicable to the Existing Revolving Commitments from which such Extended Revolving Commitments are to be converted except that:

(i)the maturity date of the Extended Revolving Commitments shall be later than the maturity date of the Existing Revolving Commitments;

(ii)(A) the interest rates (including through fixed interest rates), interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, undrawn revolving commitment fees, funding discounts, OID and premiums with respect to the Extended Revolving Commitments may be different than those for the Existing Revolving Commitments and/or (B) additional fees and/or premiums may be payable to the Extending Lenders in addition to or in lieu of any of the items contemplated by the preceding subclause (A);

(iii)the Borrower and its Subsidiaries may be subject to covenants and other terms for the benefit of the Extending Lenders that apply only after the Latest Revolving Facility Maturity Date (before giving effect to the Extended Revolving Commitments).

(c)Each Extension Request shall specify the date (the “Extension Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the conversion of an Existing Class into an Extended Class shall be effective, which shall be a Business Day. Each Lender of an Existing Class that is requested to be extended shall be offered the opportunity to convert its Existing Class into the Extended Class on the same basis as each other Lender of such Existing Class. Any Lender (to the extent applicable, an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Existing Class subject to such Extension Request converted into an Extended Class shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Existing Class subject to such Extension Request that it has elected to convert into an Extended Class; provided that (x) the Borrower may specify in its Extension Request that a Lender may convert all (but not less than all) of its Existing Class into the Extended Class, in which event a partial conversion by a Lender will not be permitted and (y) no existing Lender shall be required to be an Extending Lender. In the event that the aggregate portion of the Existing Class subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of the Extended Class requested pursuant to the Extension Request, the portion of the Existing Class converted shall be allocated on a pro rata basis based on the amount of the Existing Class included in each such Extension Election. Notwithstanding the conversion of any Existing Revolving Commitment into an Extended Revolving Commitment, such Extended Revolving Commitment shall be treated identically with all Existing Revolving Commitments for purposes of the obligations of a Revolving Facility Lender in respect of Letters of Credit under Section 2.05, except that the applicable Additional Credit Extension Amendment may provide that the maturity date for the Letters of Credit may be extended and the related obligations to issue Letters of Credit may be continued so long as each applicable L/C Issuer has consented to such extensions in its sole discretion (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender shall be required in connection with any such extension).

(d)An Extended Class shall be established pursuant to an Additional Credit Extension Amendment executed by the Extending Lenders (and the other Persons specified in the definition of “Additional Credit Extension Amendment” but no other existing Lender). No Additional Credit Extension Amendment shall provide for any Class of (x) Extended Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount that is less than $25,000,000 or (y) Extended Revolving Commitments in an aggregate principal amount that is less than $5,000,000. In addition to any terms and changes required or permitted by Section 2.23(a), the Additional Credit Extension Amendment shall amend the scheduled amortization payments pursuant to Section 2.11 with respect to the Existing Term Loans from which the Extended Term Loans were converted to reduce each scheduled principal repayment amounts for the Existing Term Loans in the same proportion as the amount of Existing Term Loans to be converted pursuant to such Additional Credit Extension Amendment.

(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, on the Extension Effective Date, (i) the principal amount of each Existing Term Loan shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the principal amount converted into an Extended Term Loan, (ii) the amount of each Existing Revolving Commitment shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the amount converted into an Extended Revolving Commitment and (iii) if, on any Extension Effective Date with respect to any Revolving Facility Commitments, any Loans of any Extending Lender are outstanding under the applicable Existing Revolving Commitments, such Loans (and any related participations) shall be deemed to be converted into Loans (and related participations) made pursuant to the Extended Revolving Commitments in the same proportion as such Extending Lender’s Existing Revolving Commitments are converted to Extended Revolving Commitments.

(f)This Section 2.23 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.19 or Section 9.08 to the contrary. Each Extended Class shall be documented by an Additional Credit Extension Amendment executed by the Extending Lenders providing such Extended Class (and the other persons specified in the definition of “Additional Credit Extension Amendment” but no other existing Lender), and the Additional Credit Extension Amendment may provide for such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan 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 2.23.

SECTION 2.24. Refinancing Term Loans

.

(a)The Borrower may at any time and from time to time, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, request the establishment of one or more additional Classes of Term Loans under this Agreement or an increase to an existing Class of Term Loans under this Agreement (“Refinancing Term Loans”); provided that:

(i)the proceeds of such Refinancing Term Loans shall be used, concurrently or substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, solely to refinance all or any portion of any outstanding Term Loans;

(ii)each Class of Refinancing Term Loans shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $25,000,000 (or such other amount necessary to repay any Class of outstanding Term Loans in full);

(iii)such Refinancing Term Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount not greater than the aggregate principal amount outstanding of Term Loans to be refinanced plus any accrued interest, premiums, fees, costs and expenses related thereto (including any OID or upfront fees);

(iv)the final maturity date of such Refinancing Term Loans shall be later than the maturity date of the Term Loans being refinanced, and the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Refinancing Term Loans shall be longer than the then remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of each Class of Term Loans being refinanced;

(v)(A) the pricing, rate floors, discounts, fees and optional and mandatory prepayment provisions applicable to such Refinancing Term Loans shall be as agreed between the Borrower and the Refinancing Term Lenders so long as, in the case of any mandatory prepayment provisions, such Refinancing Term Lenders do not participate on a greater than pro rata basis in any such prepayments as compared to Term Lenders holding Term Loans to be refinanced and (B) the covenants and other terms applicable to such Refinancing Term Loans (excluding those terms described in the immediately preceding clause (A)), which shall be as agreed between the Borrower and the lenders providing such Refinancing Term Loans, shall not be materially more favorable (when taken as a whole) to the Refinancing Term Lenders than those applicable to any Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement (as determined by the Borrower in good faith), except to the extent such covenants and other terms apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date or such covenants or other terms apply equally for the benefit of the other Lenders;

(vi)no existing Lender shall be required to provide any Refinancing Term Loans;

(vii)no Refinancing Term Loans shall be guaranteed by any Person that is not a Loan Party or secured by any asset that is not Collateral; and

(viii)the Refinancing Term Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the existing Loans, on terms and pursuant to documentation applicable to the Term Loans being refinanced.

(b)Each such notice shall specify (x) the date (each, a “Refinancing Term Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Refinancing Term Loans be made, which shall be a Business Day and (y) the identity of the Persons (each of which shall be an Eligible Person and the consent of the Persons specified in Section 9.04(b)(i) shall have been received with respect thereto to the extent as would be required if the Lender of the Refinancing Term Loan were an assignee) whom the Borrower proposes would provide the Refinancing Term Loans and the portion of the Refinancing Term Loans to be provided by each such Person. On each Refinancing Term Effective Date, each Person with a commitment for a Refinancing Term Loan (each such Person, a “Refinancing Term Lender”) shall make a Refinancing Term Loan to the Borrower in a principal amount equal to such Person’s commitment therefor.

(c)This Section 2.24 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.19 or Section 9.08 to the contrary.

(i)substantially concurrently with the effectiveness of the Replacement Revolving Commitments, all or an equivalent portion of the Revolving Facility Commitments in effect immediately prior to such effectiveness shall be terminated, and all or an equivalent portion of the Revolving Facility Loans then outstanding, together with all interest thereon, and all other amounts accrued for the benefit of the Revolving Facility Lenders, shall be repaid or paid (it being understood, however, that any Letters of Credit issued and outstanding under the Replaced Revolving Commitments shall be deemed to have been issued under the Replacement Revolving Commitments if the amount of such Letters of Credit would exceed the remaining amount of commitments under the Replaced Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the reduction contemplated hereby);

(ii)such Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be in an aggregate amount not greater than the aggregate amount of Replaced Revolving Commitments to be replaced plus any accrued interest, premiums, fees, costs and expenses related thereto (including any OID or upfront fees);

(iii)the final maturity date of such Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be later than the maturity date of the Replaced Revolving Commitments, and the Replacement Revolving Commitments shall not be subject to any amortization;

(iv)the Letter of Credit Sublimit under such Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be as agreed between the Borrower, the Lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Commitments, the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer thereunder (or any replacement L/C Issuer);

(v)(A) the pricing, rate floors, discounts, fees and prepayment provisions applicable to such Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be as agreed between the Borrower and the Replacement Revolving Lenders so long as, in the case of any mandatory or optional prepayment provisions, such Replacement Revolving Lenders do not participate on a greater than pro rata basis in any such prepayments as compared to Replaced Revolving Commitments and (B) the covenants and other terms applicable to such Replacement Revolving Commitments (excluding those terms described in the immediately preceding clause (A)), which shall be as agreed between the Borrower and the lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Commitments, shall not be materially more favorable (when taken as a whole) to the lenders providing the Replacement Revolving Commitments than those applicable to the Replaced Revolving Commitments (as determined by the Borrower in good faith), except to the extent such covenants and other terms apply solely to any period after the Latest Revolving Facility Maturity Date or such covenants or other terms apply equally for the benefit of the other Lenders;

(vi)no existing Lender shall be required to provide any Replacement Revolving Commitments; and

(vii)no Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be guaranteed by any Person that is not a Loan Party or secured by any asset that is not Collateral; and

(viii)the Replacement Revolving Commitments shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the existing Revolving Facility Commitments.

(b)Each such notice shall specify (x) the date on which the Borrower proposes that the Replacement Revolving Commitments become effective, which shall be a Business Day and (y) the identity of the Persons (each of which shall be an Eligible Person and the consent of the Persons specified in Section 9.04(b)(i) shall have been received with respect thereto to the extent as would be required if the Lender of the Replacement Revolving Commitments were an assignee) whom the Borrower proposes would provide the Replacement Revolving Commitments (each such person, a “Replacement Revolving Lender”) and the portion of the Replacement Revolving Commitments to be provided by each such Person.

(c)This Section 2.25 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.19 or Section 9.08 to the contrary. The Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be documented by an Additional Credit Extension Amendment executed by the Persons providing the Replacement Revolving Commitments (and the other Persons specified in the definition of “Additional Credit Extension Amendment” but no other existing Lender), and the Additional Credit Extension Amendment may provide for such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan 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 2.25.

SECTION 2.26. Cash Collateral

.

(cn)If (i) the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an Unreimbursed L/C Disbursement, (ii) as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, (iii) the Borrower shall be required to provide Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 7.01, or (iv) there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower shall immediately (in the case of clause (iii) above), or within one Business Day following any request by the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer (in all other cases), provide Cash Collateral in an amount not less than the applicable Minimum Collateral Amount (determined in the case of Cash Collateral provided pursuant to clause (iv) above, after giving effect to Section 2.27 (a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, the Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited as Cash Collateral, an amount equal to the excess of (x) such aggregate Outstanding Amount over (y) the total amount of funds, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under applicable Laws, to reimburse the L/C Issuer.

(co)The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.26(c). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. The

Borrower shall pay on demand therefor from time to time all customary account opening, activity and other administrative fees and charges in connection with the maintenance and disbursement of Cash Collateral.

(cp)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.26 or Section 2.27 or 7.02 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, Swingline Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(cq)Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or to secure other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 9.04(b)(ii)(B)) or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

SECTION 2.27. Defaulting Lenders

.

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

(i)    Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the penultimate sentence of Section 9.08(b) and in the definition of “Required Lenders”.

(ii)    Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.06 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.26; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit to be issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.26; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, 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 such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Unreimbursed L/C Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Disbursement Participations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder without giving effect to Section 2.27(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.27(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)    Certain Fees.

(A)    No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fee payable under Section 2.13(a) 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 for such period).

(B)    Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive L/C Participation Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Revolving Facility Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.26.

(C)    With respect to any Commitment Fee or L/C Participation Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such L/C Issuer’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv)    Reallocation of Revolving Facility Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Facility Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Facility Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment. Subject to Section 9.23, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v)    Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (a)(iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under applicable Law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.26.

(b)    Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and the L/C Issuer agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Facility Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Facility Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.27(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.28. Alternate Rate of Interest

.

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

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

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

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

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and Parent may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders do not accept such amendment.

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

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

requirements of, the Collateral Requirement and the Security Documents shall be subject to exceptions and limitations set forth in the Security Documents and the Agreed Security Principles.

SECTION 7.02. Application of Funds.

After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 7.01 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the L/C Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in Section 7.01), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.16 and 2.17, be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order:

First, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and amounts payable under Section 2.18) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

Second, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and L/C Participation Fees) payable to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the respective Lenders and the L/C Issuer (including fees and time charges for attorneys who may be employees of any Lender or the L/C Issuer) arising under the Loan Documents and amounts payable under Sections 2.16, 2.17 and 2.18, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;

Third, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid L/C Participation Fees and interest on the Loans, Unreimbursed L/C Disbursements and other Secured Obligations arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among the Lenders and the L/C Issuer in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to them;

Fifth, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer, to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by the Borrower pursuant to Sections 2.26 and 2.27; and

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly Paid in Full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.

Subject to Sections 2.26 and 2.27, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fifth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Secured Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) amounts received from any Subsidiary Loan Party that is not a Qualified Eligible Contract Participant Guarantor shall not be applied to the Secured Obligations that are Excluded Swap Obligations (it being understood, that in the event that any amount is applied to Secured Obligations other than Excluded Swap Obligations as a result of this this clause (a), the Administrative Agent shall make such adjustments as it determines are appropriate to distributions pursuant to the above from amounts received from Qualified Eligible Contract Participant Guarantors to ensure, as nearly as possible, that the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to Secured Obligations described in the above by the holders of any Excluded Swap Obligations are the same as the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to other Secured Obligations pursuant to the above) and (b) Secured Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Swap Agreements shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be. Each Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article VIII hereof for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.

THE AGENTS

XXXXXXX 0.00. Xxxxxxxxxxx

.

(xx)Each Lender and each L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Swingline Lender or any L/C Issuers, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Collateral Agent.

SECTION 8.02. Delegation of Duties

.

Each Agent may each execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

SECTION 8.03. Exculpatory Provisions

.

No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent:

(i)shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii)shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number of percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Sections 7.01 and 9.08), provided that such Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its judgment or the judgment of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

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

No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 7.01 and 9.08), (ii) in connection with making or not making Puerto Rico Filings on behalf of each Lender as authorized by such Lender under Section 8.01(a) hereof or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to such Agent by Parent, a Lender or an L/C Issuer.

No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement 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.

SECTION 8.04. Reliance by Agents

.

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in, and shall not incur any liability for, relying upon, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, facsimile, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or instruction 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 Parent), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. Each Agent may also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person or persons, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may deem and treat the Lender specified in the Register with respect to any amount owing hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that 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 and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.

SECTION 8.05. Notice of Default

.

No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless such Agent has received notice from a Lender or Parent referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, it shall give notice thereof to the Lenders and the Collateral Agent. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders, provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement requires that such action be taken only with the approval of the Required Lenders or each of the Lenders, as applicable.

SECTION 8.06. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Other Lenders

.

Each Lender expressly acknowledges that no Agent or Additional Agent or any of their officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent or Additional Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Parent or any other Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Agent or Additional Agent to any Lender, the Swingline Lender or any L/C Issuer. Each Lender, the Swingline Lender and each L/C Issuer represents to each Agent and Additional Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, Additional Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and other Loan Parties and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, Additional Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, no Agent or Additional Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, assets, operations, properties, financial condition, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any other Loan Party that may come into the possession of any Agent or Additional Agent or any of their officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

SECTION 8.07. Indemnification

.

The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent, each in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective portions of the total Term Loans and Revolving Facility Commitments (or, if the Revolving Facility Commitments shall have terminated, in accordance the Revolving Facility Credit Exposures) held on the date on which indemnification is sought, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any documents (including any intercreditor agreement) contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing, including any action or inaction taken by the Administrative Agent in making or not making the Puerto Rico Filings; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The agreements in this Section 8.07 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

SECTION 8.08. Agents in their Individual Capacity

.

Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower and any other Loan Party as though such persons were not an Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to the Loans made by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in their individual capacities.

SECTION 8.09. Successor Agents

.

Each Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and Parent. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to the reasonable consent of Parent so long as no Event of Default under Section 7.01(h) or (i) is continuing, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier date as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders, the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that (a) in no event shall such successor Agent be a Defaulting Lender or Ineligible Institution and (b) whether or not a successor has been appointed such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date and (1) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except in the case of the Collateral Agent holding collateral security on behalf of any Secured Parties, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as nominee until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through such Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as an Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date), and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Borrower (following the effectiveness of such appointment) to such Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while the retiring Agent was acting as an Agent and (ii) in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender. The retiring L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. Upon such resignation, Bank of America shall retain all the rights, powers,

privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to fund risk participations in Unreimbursed L/C Disbursements pursuant to Section 2.05(e)). Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit.

SECTION 8.10. Payments Set Aside

.

To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer 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 and the L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative 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, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer under clause (b) of the preceding sentence shall survive Payment in Full and the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.11. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim

.

In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation 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

(iv)to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations 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, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent under Article II or Section 9.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(v)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 and the L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Article II and Section 9.05.

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 or the L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or the L/C Issuer to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or the L/C Issuer or in any such proceeding.

The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Secured Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, (b) at any other sale or

foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law.  In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that would vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase).  In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a bid, (ii) to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or Equity Interests thereof shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote of the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 9.08(b) of this Agreement, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to assign the relevant Obligations to any such acquisition vehicle pro rata by the Lenders, as a result of which each of the Lenders shall be deemed to have received a pro rata portion of any Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by such an acquisition vehicle on account of the assignment of the Obligations to be credit bid, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (iv) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of debt credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Lenders pro rata and the Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of the Obligations that had been assigned to the acquisition vehicle shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action.

SECTION 8.12. Collateral and Guaranty Matters

.

Without limiting the provisions of Section 8.11, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, at its option and in its discretion, (a) to release (i) any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee Agreement and (ii) any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 9.08, or pursuant to Section 9.18, and (b) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(i). Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release a Guarantor from the Guarantee Agreement or its interest in particular types or items of property in accordance with this Section. The Lenders and the L/C Issuer irrevocably agree that (x) the Collateral Agent may, without any further consent of any Lender, enter into or amend (i) the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and/or (ii) any intercreditor agreement with the collateral agent or other representatives of the holders of Indebtedness that is permitted to be secured by a Junior Lien on the Collateral that is permitted under this Agreement, (y) the Collateral Agent may rely exclusively on a certificate of a Responsible Officer of Parent as to whether any such other Liens are permitted and (z) any such intercreditor agreement referred to in clause (x) above, entered into by the Collateral Agent, shall be binding on the Secured Parties.

No Agent shall have any responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall any Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

SECTION 8.13. Additional Agents

.

None of the Additional Agents shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder in its capacity as such, but shall be entitled to the indemnities and exculpatory provisions of the Administrative Agent set forth in Sections 8.03, 8.06, 8.07 and 8.08 as if such provisions referred to the Additional Agents mutatis mutandis. The Additional Agents are express third-party beneficiaries of such provisions of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 8.14. Intercreditor Agreements and Collateral Matters

.

The Lenders hereby agree that Bank of America (and any successor Collateral Agent under the Security Documents) shall be permitted to serve as Collateral Agent for both the Secured Parties and the Other First Lien Secured Parties under the Security

Documents and the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement. Each Lender hereby consents to Bank of America and any successor serving in such capacity and agrees not to assert any claim (including as a result of any conflict of interest) against Bank of America, or any such successor, arising from the role of the Collateral Agent under the Security Documents or the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement so long as the Collateral Agent is either acting in accordance with the express terms of such documents or otherwise has not engaged in gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

SECTION 8.15. Withholding Taxes

.

To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender, Swingline Lender or L/C Issuer an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.18(a) or (c), each Lender, Swingline Lender and L/C Issuer shall indemnify the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 15 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender, Swingline Lender or L/C Issuer for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender, Swingline Lender or L/C Issuer by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender, Swingline Lender and L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Swingline Lender or L/C Issuer under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.15. The agreements in this Section 8.15 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, Swingline Lender or L/C Issuer, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

(c)(i) Any Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Swingline Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more Eligible Persons (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s, L/C Issuer’s or Swingline Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer 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 pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, that (x) such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the first proviso to Section 9.08(b) and (2) directly affects such Participant (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not any waiver of any Default or Event of Default other than any payment Default or Event of Default) and (y) no other agreement with respect to amendment, modification or waiver may exist between such Lender and such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 9.04, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17 and 2.18 (subject to the limitations and requirements of those Sections) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.04(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 2.19(c) as though it were a Lender.

(ii)    A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16, 2.17 or 2.18 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(iii)    If the Lender shall sell a participation, it shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and related interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (the “Participant Register”); provided that the Lender shall have no obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitment, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(d)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank and in the case of any Lender that is an Approved Fund, any pledge or assignment to any holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Lender, including to any trustee for, or any other representative of, such holders, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided, that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e)The Borrower, at its expense and upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in paragraph (d) above.

(f)Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Each Loan Party, each Lender and

the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto and each Loan Party for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance.

(g)If the Borrower wishes to replace the Loans or Commitments under any Facility with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders under such Facility, instead of prepaying the Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require the Lenders under such Facility to assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 9.08 (with such replacement, if applicable, being deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 9.08(d)). Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans and Commitments to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders under such Facility in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrower), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to Section 9.05(a). By receiving such purchase price, the Lenders under such Facility shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Loans or Commitments under such Facility pursuant to the terms of the form of Assignment and Acceptance attached hereto as Exhibit B, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph (g) are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.

(h)The Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to post the list of Ineligible Institutions on the Platform for all Lenders and any Lender may provide the list to any potential assignee or participant on a confidential basis in accordance with Section 9.16 hereof for the purpose of verifying whether such Person is an Ineligible Institution. Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible (or have any liability) for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Ineligible Institutions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (1) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or participant or prospective Lender or participant is an Ineligible Institution or (2) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans or Commitments, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Ineligible Institution.

(i)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Revolving Facility Commitment and Revolving Facility Loans pursuant to Section 9.04(b), Bank of America may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower, resign as Swingline Lender. In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of America resigns as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make ABR Revolving Loans or purchase L/C Disbursement Participations pursuant to Section 2.05(e)). If Bank of America resigns as Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make ABR Revolving Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swingline Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.

(j)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender may assign all or any portion of its Term Loans hereunder to any Affiliated Lender; provided that:

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

(B)    the assigning Lender and Affiliated Lender purchasing such Lender’s Term Loans shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit F in lieu of an Assignment and Acceptance;

(C)    for the avoidance of doubt, Lenders shall not be permitted to assign Revolving Facility Commitments or Revolving Facility Loans to any Affiliated Lender;

(D)    no Term Loan may be assigned to a Affiliated Lender pursuant to this Section 9.04(j) if, after giving effect to such assignment, Affiliated Lenders in the aggregate would own Term Loans with a principal amount in excess of 15% of the principal amount of all Term Loans then outstanding; and

(E)    the Affiliated Lender purchasing such Term Loans represents and covenants as of the date of any assignment to such Affiliated Lender that it does not have any material non-public information with respect to Parent that (a) has not been disclosed to the Lenders (other than Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Parent, any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) prior to such time and (b) could reasonably be expected to have a material effect upon, or otherwise be material, (i) to a Lender’s decision to participate in any assignment pursuant to this Section 9.04(j) or (ii) to the market price of the Term Loans.

Affiliated Lenders will be subject to the restrictions specified in Section 9.22.

SECTION 9.05. Expenses; Indemnity

.

(a)The Borrower agrees to pay (i) all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses (including Other Taxes) incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Joint Bookrunners in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or, with respect to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, in connection with the syndication of commitments or administration of this Agreement and any amendments, modifications, supplements or waivers (or proposed amendments, modifications, supplements or waivers) of the provisions hereof or thereof, including expenses incurred in connection with due diligence, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Joint Bookrunners, and the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one local counsel per jurisdiction, (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the L/C Issuer in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses (including Other Taxes) incurred by the Agents or any Lender in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agents and the Lenders (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Joint Bookrunners, and, if necessary, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one local counsel per jurisdiction and one additional counsel for the affected persons, taken as a whole, to the extent of any actual or perceived conflict of interest).

(b)The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Agents, the Additional Agents, each L/C Issuer, each Lender, each of their respective Affiliates and each of their respective directors, partners, officers, employees, agents, trustees and advisors (each such person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements (limited to one counsel to the Agents and their Related Parties and one local counsel to the Agents and their Related Parties in each applicable jurisdiction and, solely in the event of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each applicable material jurisdiction to the other Indemnitees) (except the allocated costs of in-house counsel) (collectively, “Damages”), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto and thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of or otherwise relating to the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby and the administration of the Loan Documents, including any required filings with the Puerto Rico Treasury Department, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the L/C Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third-party or by Parent or any of its subsidiaries or Affiliates; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (for purposes of this proviso only, each Agent, each Additional Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender shall be treated as several and separate Indemnitees, but each of them together with its respective Related Parties (other than advisors), shall be treated as a single Indemnitee). Subject to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel or consultant fees, charges and disbursements (limited to one counsel to the Agents and their Related Parties and one local counsel to the Agents and their Related Parties in each applicable jurisdiction and, solely in the event of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each applicable material jurisdiction to the other Indemnitees) (except the allocated costs of in-house counsel), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (A) any claim related in any way to Environmental Laws and Parent or any of its subsidiaries, or (B) any actual or alleged presence, Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials at, under, on, from or to any property currently or formerly owned, operated or leased by any of them; provided, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that

such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties (for purposes of this proviso only, each Agent, each Additional Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender shall be treated as several and separate Indemnitees, but each of them together with its respective Related Parties (other than advisors), shall be treated as a single Indemnitee). None of the Indemnitees (or any of their respective affiliates) shall be responsible or liable to the Sponsor, Parent, the Borrower or any of their respective subsidiaries, Affiliates or stockholders or any other person or entity for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, which may be alleged as a result of the Facilities or the Transactions. The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of any Agent, any Additional Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or other amount requested.

(c)Except as expressly provided in Section 9.05(a) with respect to Other Taxes, which shall not be duplicative of any amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.18, this Section 9.05 shall not apply to Taxes, except Taxes that represent Damages arising from a non-Tax claim (i.e., for the avoidance of doubt, indemnification under this Section 9.05 in respect of a non-Tax claim shall be made to the extent necessary to place the indemnitee in the same after-Tax position that the indemnitee would have been in absent the occurrence of the events giving rise to such indemnification).

(d)To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Parent and the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

(e)The agreements in this Section 9.05 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, any L/C Issuer, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(f)All amounts due under this Section shall be payable as promptly as practicable.

SECTION 9.06. Right of Set-off

.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each L/C Issuer is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender or such L/C Issuer to or for the credit or the account of Parent or any Subsidiary against any of and all the obligations of Parent or the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender or such L/C Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such L/C Issuer shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although the obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender and each L/C Issuer under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender or such L/C Issuer may have.

SECTION 9.07. Applicable Law

.

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) AND ANY DISPUTES ARISING HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 9.08. Waivers; Amendment

.

(a)No failure or delay of any Agent, any L/C Issuer or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of each Agent, each L/C Issuer and the Lenders hereunder and

under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by Parent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by clause (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on Parent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any case shall entitle such person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b)Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (x) as provided in Sections 2.22, 2.23, 2.25, 2.28 and 6.13, (y) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Parent, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and consented to by the Required Lenders or, in the case of a waiver of the Financial Performance Covenant, the Required Covenant Lenders or, in the case of an amendment or modification of the Financial Performance Covenant as it applies to any Facility, the Required Class Lenders of such Facility) and (z) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each party thereto and consented to by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement shall:

(i)decrease or forgive the principal amount of, or extend the final maturity of, or decrease the rate of interest on, any Loan or any L/C Obligation, extend the stated expiration of any Letter of Credit beyond the Revolving Facility Maturity Date or reduce the premium payable in the event of a Repricing Transaction, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby; provided, that any amendment to the financial covenant definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for purposes of this clause (i),

(ii)(x) increase the amount of or extend the maturity date of the Commitment of any Lender or (y) decrease the Commitment Fees or L/C Participation Fees or other fees of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of clause (y), such consent of such Lender shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modification) (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default shall not constitute an increase of the Commitments of any Lender),

(iii)extend or waive any Term Loan Installment Date, reduce the amount due on any Term Loan Installment Date, or extend any date on which payment of interest on any Loan or any L/C Obligation or any Fees is due, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby (which, notwithstanding the foregoing, such consent of such Lender directly adversely affected thereby shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modification),

(iv)amend Section 7.02, Section 2.09(b) (to the extent requiring any reduction of the Revolving Facility Commitments to be applied ratably among the Lenders) or Section 2.19(b) or (c) without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby,

(v)reduce the voting rights of any Lender under this Section 9.08 or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the prior written consent of such Lender (it being understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Loans and Commitments are included on the Closing Date),

(vi)release all or substantially all the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the value of the guarantees by the Subsidiary Loan Parties under the Guarantee Agreements, unless, in each case, to the extent sold or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, without the prior written consent of each Lender;

(vii)amend Section 1.05 without the prior written consent of each Revolving Facility Lender and each L/C Issuer; or

(viii)effect any waiver, amendment or modification that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments or collateral of Lenders participating in any Facility differently from those of Lenders participating in another Facility, without the consent of the Required Class Lenders participating in the adversely affected Facility (it being agreed that the Required Lenders may waive, in whole or in part, any prepayment required by Section 2.12 so long as the application of any prepayment still required to be made is not changed);

provided, further, that (A) no such amendment shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Agent, Swingline Lender or an L/C Issuer hereunder without the prior written consent of such Agent, Swingline Lender or such L/C Issuer acting as such at the effective date of such amendment, as applicable and (B) no amendment, waiver or consent shall amend, modify or waive any condition precedent to any extension of credit under the Revolving Facility set forth in Section 4.01 without the written consent of the Required Class Lenders under such Revolving Facility (it being understood that (i) amendments of any other provision of any Loan Document, including any representation or warranty, any covenant or any Default or Event of Default, shall be deemed to be effective for purposes of determining whether the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.01 have been satisfied regardless of whether the Required Class Lenders under the Revolving Facility shall have consented to such amendment, modification or waiver and (ii) such consent of the Required Class Lenders under the applicable Revolving Facility shall be the only consent required hereunder to make such modifications to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.01 for extensions of credit under the Revolving Facility). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent of any Defaulting Lender shall be required for any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender unless such waiver, amendment or modification by its terms would affect such Defaulting

Lender differently than other affected Lenders; provided that the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased in amount or the maturity thereof extended without the consent of such Lender, and no principal or interest owing to any Defaulting Lender may be reduced, or the date on which payment of such principal or interest is due extended, without the consent of such Lender. Each Lender shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section 9.08 and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section 9.08 shall bind any successor or assignee of such Lender.

(c)Without the consent of any Lender or L/C Issuer, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may (in their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to include the Other First Lien Secured Parties in the benefit of the Security Documents in connection with the incurrence of any Other First Lien Debt, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law or this Agreement, in all cases subject to the Agreed Security Principles or in each case to otherwise enhance the rights or benefits of any Lender under any Loan Document.

(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent, Parent and the Borrower (i) to add one or more additional credit or debt 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 Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the Revolving Facility Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit or debt facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders or Required Class Lenders.

(e)Notwithstanding the foregoing, technical and conforming modifications to the Loan Documents may be made with the consent of Parent, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to the extent necessary (A) to integrate any Incremental Term Loan Loans, any Refinancing Term Loans or any Replacement Revolving Commitments on substantially the same basis as the Term Loans or Revolving Facility Loans, as applicable, (B) to integrate any Other First Lien Debt or (C) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency; provided, with respect to this clause (C), that (i) such modifications do not adversely affect the rights of any Lender or other holder of Obligations in any material respect and (ii) the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment.

(f)Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended, (i) with the written consent of each Revolving Facility Lender, the Administrative Agent, Parent and the Borrower to the extent necessary to integrate any Alternative Currency and (ii) with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer, Parent and the Borrower to the extent necessary to integrate any L/C Alternative Currency.

SECTION 9.09. Interest Rate Limitation

.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the applicable interest rate, together with all fees and charges that are treated as interest under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), as provided for herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, or otherwise contracted for, charged, received, taken or reserved by any Lender or any L/C Issuer, shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by such Lender in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable hereunder, together with all Charges payable to such Lender or such L/C Issuer, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate; provided, that such excess amount shall be paid to such Lender or such L/C Issuer on subsequent payment dates to the extent not exceeding the legal limitation.

SECTION 9.10. Entire Agreement

.

This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the agreements regarding certain Fees referred to herein constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among or representations from the parties or their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fee Letter shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and remain in full force and effect. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto and thereto and the Indemnitees any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL

.

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

SECTION 9.12. Severability

.

In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 9.13. Counterparts

.

SECTION 9.15. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process

.

(a)Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City in the borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof (collectively, “New York Courts”), in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (other than as expressly set forth in other Loan Documents), or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that any party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in the courts of any jurisdiction, except that each of the Loan Parties agrees that (a) it will not bring any such action or proceeding in any court other than New York Courts (it

being acknowledged and agreed by the Loan Parties that any other forum would be inconvenient and inappropriate in view of the fact that more of the Lenders who would be affected by any such action or proceeding have contacts with the State of New York than any other jurisdiction), and (b) in any such action or proceeding brought against any Loan Party in any other court, it will not assert any cross-claim, counterclaim or set-off, or seek any other affirmative relief, except to the extent that the failure to assert the same will preclude such Loan Party from asserting or seeking the same in the New York Courts.

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

(c)By the execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Loan Party (i) acknowledges that it has, by separate written instrument, designated and appointed CT Corporation System, with an office at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000 (“CT”) (and any successor entity), as its authorized agent upon which process may be served in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement that may be instituted in New York Courts, and acknowledges that CT has accepted such designation, (ii) submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such suit or proceeding and (iii) agrees that service of process upon CT and written notice of said service to any Loan Party in accordance with the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01 shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon such Loan Party, in any such suit or proceeding. Each Loan Party further agrees to take any and all action, including the execution and filing of any and all such documents and instruments, as may be necessary to continue such designation and appointment of CT in full force and effect so long as this Agreement is in effect; provided that each Loan Party, with respect to such Loan Party, may and to the extent CT ceases to be able to be served on the basis contemplated herein shall, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, designate such additional or alternative agent for service of process under this paragraph (c) that (i) maintains an office located in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, State of New York and (ii) is either (x) counsel for Parent or (y) a corporate service company which acts as agent for service of process for other persons in the ordinary course of its business. Such written notice shall identify the name of such agent for service of process and the address of the office of such agent for service of process in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, State of New York. To the extent that any Loan Party has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court of (i) any jurisdiction in which it owns or leases property or assets, (ii) the United States or the State of New York or (iii) the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico or any political subdivision thereof or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property and assets or this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or actions to enforce judgments in respect of any thereof, such Loan Party hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under the above‑referenced documents, to the extent permitted by law. Nothing in this Agreement, any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 9.16. Confidentiality

.

Each of the Lenders, each L/C Issuer and each of the Agents agrees that it shall maintain in confidence any information relating to Parent and any Subsidiary furnished to it by or on behalf of any Parent or any Subsidiary (other than information that (a) has become available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by such party in breach of this Section 9.16, (b) has been independently developed by such Lender, such L/C Issuer or such Agent without violating this Section 9.16 or (c) was or becomes available to such Lender, such L/C Issuer or such Agent from a third party which, to such person’s knowledge, had not breached an obligation of confidentiality to Parent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party) and shall not reveal the same other than to its affiliates, directors, trustees, officers, employees and advisors with a need to know or to any person that approves or administers the Loans on behalf of such Lender (so long as each such person shall have been instructed to keep the same confidential), except: (A) to the extent necessary to comply with law or any legal process or the requirements of any Governmental Authority, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or of any securities exchange on which securities of the disclosing party or any Affiliate of the disclosing party are listed or traded, (B) as part of normal reporting or review procedures to, or examinations by, Governmental Authorities or self regulatory authorities, including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, (C) in order to enforce its rights under any Loan Document in a legal proceeding, (D) to any pledgee under Section 9.04(d) or any other prospective assignee of, or prospective Participant in, any of its rights under this Agreement (so long as such person shall have been instructed to keep the same confidential in accordance with this Section 9.16 or terms substantially similar to this Section), (E) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (F) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in Swap Agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 9.16 or terms substantially similar to this Section), (G) if required by any rating agency; provided that prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall have agreed to maintain the

confidentiality of such Information and (H) to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans on a confidential basis.

The Borrower hereby agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (i) all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (ii) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Joint Bookrunners the L/C Issuer and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as either publicly available information or not material information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrower, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws, (iii) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor” and (iv) the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Joint Bookrunners shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.”

SECTION 9.18. Release of Liens, Guarantees and Pledges

.

(a)A Subsidiary Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by the Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Loan Party shall be automatically released, upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement or any designation in accordance with Section 5.12, as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Subsidiary; provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise. Upon any sale or other transfer by any Loan Party (other than to any other Loan Party) of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest created under any Security Document in any Collateral or the release of any Subsidiary Loan Party from its Guarantee under the Guarantee Agreement pursuant to Section 9.08, the security interests in such Collateral created by the Security Documents or such Guarantee shall be automatically released; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any disposal consisting of an operating lease or license, the underlying property retained by such Loan Party will not be so released. Upon Payment in Full, all obligations under the Loan Documents and all security interests created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released. Any such release of Secured Obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such Secured Obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Secured Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or

reorganization of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver, without recourse or warranty, to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release so long as the Borrower or applicable Loan Party shall have provided the Administrative Agent such certifications or documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request in order to demonstrate compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b)The Administrative Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to subordinate the Administrative Agent’s Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(j).

(c)Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to provide any release or evidence of release, termination or subordination contemplated by this Section. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Loan Party from its obligations under any Loan Document, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Document and this Section, and, in such case (other than upon Payment In Full), the Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to provide such release or evidence of release, termination or subordination until the Administrative Agent has received such confirmation.

SECTION 9.19. Judgment Currency

.

If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower in the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

SECTION 9.20. USA PATRIOT Act Notice

.

Each Lender that is subject to the USA PATRIOT Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Parent and the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of each Loan Party, a Beneficial Ownership Certification and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Loan Party in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

Exhibit A

AGREED SECURITY PRINCIPLES

The Principles. The guarantees and security to be provided by subsidiaries of Parent that are organized outside of the United States For the avoidance of doubt, as used in this Exhibit A, United States includes Puerto Rico. (the “Non-U.S. Subsidiaries”) in support of the Facilities will be given in accordance with the agreed security principles set out below.

Potential Restrictions on Credit The Agreed Security Principles recognize there may be

Support. legal and practical difficulties in obtaining security from Non-U.S. Subsidiaries in jurisdictions outside the United States. In particular:

(a) general statutory limitations, financial assistance, corporate benefit, fraudulent preference, thin capitalization rules, retention of title claims and similar principles may limit the ability of Non-U.S. Subsidiaries to provide a guarantee or grant security or may require that its guarantee be limited in amount or scope. Parent will use commercially reasonable efforts to assist in demonstrating that adequate corporate benefit accrues to the applicable Non-U.S. Subsidiaries that are Loan Parties;

(b) the guarantees and collateral (and extent of its perfection) shall exclude such guarantees and collateral as to which Parent shall reasonably determine (and the Administrative Agent shall agree in writing) that the costs of obtaining such guarantees and collateral are excessive in relation to the value of the guarantee and collateral to be afforded thereby); and

(c) Non-U.S. Subsidiaries will not be required to give guarantees or enter into security documents if doing so would conflict with the fiduciary duties of their directors or contravene any legal prohibition or result in a material risk of personal or criminal liability on the part of any officer; provided that Parent shall use, and shall cause its applicable subsidiaries to use, commercially reasonable efforts to overcome any such obstacle.

Guarantees. To the extent legally permitted and subject to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above, each guarantee and security will be an upstream, cross-stream and downstream guarantee and each guarantee and security will be for all liabilities of all Loan Parties under the Loan Documents. A Subsidiary Loan Party formed or acquired by Parent after the Closing Date and organized outside the United States in a jurisdiction other than any jurisdiction in which a Subsidiary Loan Party on the Closing Date is organized, shall execute and deliver a guarantee agreement governed by the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, in form and substance substantially similar to the Guarantee Agreement and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, to the extent the Administrative Agent determines that such guarantee agreement is more likely to be

enforced against such Subsidiary Loan Party in such jurisdiction than the Guarantee Agreement entered into on the Closing Date.

Security Perfection. Perfection of security (when required) and other legal formalities will be completed as soon as practicable and, in any event, within the time periods specified by applicable law in order to ensure due perfection and priority. Perfection of security will not be required if it would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the relevant Non-U.S. Subsidiary to conduct its operations and business in the ordinary course as permitted by the Loan Documents. No notice of receivables security may be given to third party debtors unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The Collateral Agent may register security interests in intellectual property rights only in respect of material intellectual property and in jurisdictions to be agreed upon.

Security Enforcement. The Loan Documents will allow the Collateral Agent to enforce the security without any restriction from (i) the constitutional documents of Parent or any of its subsidiaries or (ii) any Loan Party which is or whose assets are the subject of such Loan Document (but subject to any inalienable statutory rights which the Borrower may have to challenge such enforcement) or (iii) any shareholders of the foregoing not party to the relevant Loan Document.

Term of Security Documents. The following principles will be reflected in the terms of any security taken as part of this transaction:

(a) the security will be first ranking, if commercially feasible;

(b) no remedies may be taken in respect of the security unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(c) in respect of the share pledges, customary limitations on the exercise of voting rights by the pledgor to protect the validity and enforceability of the security over shares shall apply;

(d) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (i) the pledgor shall retain and exercise voting rights to any shares pledged in a manner that does not adversely affect the validity or enforceability of the security or cause an Event of Default to occur, (ii) the pledgor will be permitted to pay dividends upstream to the extent permitted under the Loan Documents with the proceeds to be available to Parent and its Subsidiaries, and (iii) notice will not be given to banks where bank accounts have been charged or otherwise secured or to any other counterparty in respect of creation of a security interest; and

(e) the Collateral Agent shall be able to exercise a power of attorney only if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or if the relevant Loan Party has failed to comply with a further assurance or perfection obligation.

Exhibit C

FORM OF

LOAN AUCTION PROCEDURES

This Exhibit C is intended to summarize certain basic terms of the modified Dutch auction procedures pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.12(g) of the Credit Agreement (as defined below), of which this Exhibit C is a part. It is not intended to be a definitive statement of all of the terms and conditions of a modified Dutch auction, the definitive terms and conditions for which shall be set forth in the Auction Notice (as defined below). None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, or any of their respective Affiliates makes any recommendation pursuant to any Auction Notice as to whether or not any Lender should participate in an Auction Prepayment Offer, nor shall the decision by the Administrative Agent or the Auction Manager (or any of their respective Affiliates) in its capacity as a Lender to participate in an Auction Prepayment Offer be deemed to constitute such a recommendation. Each Lender should make its own decision as to whether to participate in an Auction Prepayment Offer and as to the price to be sought for its Term Loans. In addition, each Lender should consult its own attorney, business advisor and/or tax advisor as to legal, business, tax and related matters concerning each Auction Prepayment Offer and the Auction Notice. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Exhibit C have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 27, 2018, among EVERTEC, Inc. (“Parent”), EVERTEC Group, LLC (the “Borrower”), the lenders party thereto from time to time and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, collateral agent, swingline lender and L/C issuer (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”).

(a) Notice Procedures. In connection with each Auction Prepayment Offer, the Borrower will provide notification to the Auction Manager for distribution to the Lenders of the Term Loans (each, an “Auction Notice”). Each Auction Notice shall contain (i) the aggregate amount of the Term Loans that the Borrower offers to prepay in such Auction Prepayment Offer (the “Auction Amount”), which may be expressed at the election of the Borrower as either (A) the total par principal amount of the Class or Classes of Term Loans offered to be prepaid or (B) the total cash amount offered to be paid pursuant to the Auction; (ii) the range of discounts to par (the “Discount Range”), expressed as a range of prices per $1,000, at which the Borrower would be willing to prepay Term Loans in such Auction Prepayment Offer; provided that the par principal amount of the Term Loans offered to be prepaid in each Auction shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000 and with minimum increments of $100,000 (it being understood that the par principal amount of Term Loans actually prepaid may be less than the minimum amount in the event that the aggregate par principal amount of Term Loans actually offered to be available for prepayment by Lenders in such Auction is less than the minimum amount); (iii) the date and time by which Return Bids (as defined below) will be due (as such date and time may be extended by the Auction Manager, the “Expiration Time”); and (iv) any other conditions specified by the Borrower that must be satisfied for the Borrower to be obligated to consummate such Auction Prepayment Offer. Such Expiration Time may be extended upon notice by the Borrower to the Auction Manager received not less than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time. The terms of the Auction Notice may be amended upon notice by the Borrower to the Auction Manager received not less than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time. An Auction Prepayment Offer shall be regarded as a “failed Auction Prepayment Offer” in the event that either (x) the Borrower withdraws such Auction Prepayment Offer in accordance with the terms hereof or as set forth in Section 2.12(g)(iii) of the Credit Agreement or (y) the Expiration Time occurs with no Qualifying Bids having been received. In the event of a failed Auction Prepayment Offer, the Borrower shall not be permitted to deliver a new Auction Notice prior to the date occurring three Business Days after such withdrawal or Expiration Time, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower shall not initiate any Auction Prepayment Offer by delivering an Auction Notice to the Auction Manager until three Business Days after the conclusion (whether successful or failed) of the previous Auction Prepayment Offer (if any), whether such conclusion occurs by withdrawal of such previous Auction Prepayment Offer or the occurrence of the Expiration Time of such previous Auction Prepayment Offer.

(b) Reply Procedures. In connection with any Auction Prepayment Offer, each Lender wishing to participate in such Auction Prepayment Offer shall, prior to the Expiration Time, provide the Auction Manager with a notice of participation, in the form included in the Auction Notice (each, a “Return Bid”) which shall specify (i) a discount to par that must be expressed as a price per $1,000 in principal amount of Term Loans (the “Reply Price”) of each Class within the applicable Discount Range and (ii) the par principal amount of Term Loans of each Class that such Lender accepts for prepayment at its Reply Price, which must be in increments of $100,000 (the “Reply Amount”). The minimum incremental amount requirements described above shall not apply if Lender submits a Reply Amount equal to such Lender’s entire remaining amount of its applicable Class or Classes of Term Loans. Lenders may only submit one Return Bid per Class per Auction Prepayment Offer, but each Return Bid may contain up to three component bids (or such larger number of component bids as may be specified in the Auction Notice), each of which may result in a separate Qualifying Bid and each of which will not be contingent on any other component bid submitted by such Lender resulting in a Qualifying Bid. In addition to the Return Bid, the participating Lender must execute and deliver, to be held in escrow by the Auction Manager, an assignment and acceptance in the form included in the Auction Notice (each, an “Auction Assignment and Assumption”). The Borrower will not prepay any Term Loans at a price that is outside of the applicable Discount Range, nor will any Return Bids (including any component bids specified therein) submitted at a price that is outside such applicable Discount Range be considered in any calculation of the Applicable Threshold Price (as defined below). Any Lender with outstanding Term Loans whose Return Bid is not received by the Auction Manager by the Expiration Time shall be deemed to have declined to accept any Auction Prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount to their par value within the Discount Range.

(c) Acceptance Procedures. Based on the Reply Prices and Reply Amounts received by the Auction Manager, the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Borrower, will calculate the lowest purchase price (the “Applicable Threshold Price”) for such Auction Prepayment Offer within the Discount Range for such Auction Prepayment Offer that will allow the Borrower to complete the Auction Prepayment Offer by prepaying the full Auction Amount (or such lesser amount of Term Loans for which the Borrower has received Qualifying Bids). The Borrower shall prepay Term Loans of each Lender whose Return Bid is within the Discount Range and contains a Reply Price that is equal to or less than the Applicable Threshold Price (each, a “Qualifying Bid”). All Term Loans included in Qualifying Bids (including multiple component Qualifying Bids contained in a single Return Bid) received at a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold Price will be prepaid at the Applicable Threshold Price, subject to proration as set forth in paragraph (d) below. Each participating Lender will receive notice of a Qualifying Bid as soon as reasonably practicable but in no case later than five business days from the date of the Expiration Time.

(d) Proration Procedures. If the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans for which Qualifying Bids have been submitted in any given Auction Prepayment Offer at or below the Applicable Threshold Price would exceed the remaining portion of the Auction Amount, the Borrower shall prepay such Loans ratably based on the relative principal amounts offered by each Lender in an aggregate amount equal to the amount necessary to complete the prepayment of the Auction Amount. No Return Bids or any component thereof will be accepted above the Applicable Threshold Price.

(e) Notification Procedures. The Auction Manager will calculate the Applicable Threshold Price and post the Applicable Threshold Price and proration factor onto an internet or intranet site (including an IntraLinks®, SyndTrak® or other electronic workspace) in accordance with the Auction Manager’s standard dissemination practices by 4:00 p.m., on the Business Day after which the Expiration Time occurs; provided that the failure to post such Applicable Threshold Price and proration factor by such time shall not affect the validity of such Auction Prepayment Offer. The Auction Manager will insert the principal amount of Term Loans of the applicable Class to be prepaid and the applicable settlement date.

(f) Prepayment Notice. Each Auction Notice shall contain the following representations and warranties by the Borrower:

“No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of the delivery of this Auction Notice and at the time of prepayment of any Term Loans pursuant hereto or would result from this Auction Prepayment Offer or from the application of the proceeds thereof.

The Borrower is not in possession of any material non-public information with respect to Parent or any of its subsidiaries that (x) has not been disclosed to the Lenders (other than Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to Parent or any of its subsidiaries) prior to the date of the Auction Notice and (y) if not disclosed to the Lenders, could reasonably be expected to have a material effect (whether negative or positive) upon, or otherwise be material to, (1) a Lender’s decision to participate in any Auction Prepayment Offer or (2) the market price of the Term Loans subject to such Auction Prepayment Offer.”

(g) Additional Procedures. Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Borrower must, in accordance with Section 2.12(g)(iii) of the Credit Agreement, terminate any Auction Prepayment Offer if it reasonably believes that it will fail to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 2.12(g)(ii) of the Credit Agreement which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to such Auction Prepayment Offer. Any Return Bid (including any component bid thereof) delivered to the Auction Manager may not be withdrawn, modified, revoked, terminated or cancelled by a Lender. However, an Auction Prepayment Offer may become void if the conditions to the prepayment set forth in Section 2.12 of the Credit Agreement are not met. The Borrower shall pay the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Qualifying Bids for which prepayment by the Borrower is required in accordance with the foregoing provisions to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders not later than 2:00 p.m. on a settlement date as determined jointly by the Borrower and the Auction Manager (which shall be not later than ten Business Days after the date Return Bids are due). All questions as to the form of documents and eligibility of Term Loans that are the subject of an Auction Prepayment Offer will be determined by the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Borrower, and their determination will be final and binding so long as such determination is not inconsistent with the terms of Section 2.12(g) of the Credit Agreement or this Exhibit C, as determined by the Auction Manager in good faith. The Auction Manager’s interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Auction Notice, in consultation with the Borrower, will be final and binding so long as such interpretation is not inconsistent with the terms of Section 2.12(g) of the Credit Agreement or this Exhibit C, as determined by the Auction Manager in good faith. None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any of their respective Affiliates assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information concerning Parent or any of its Affiliates (whether contained in an Auction Notice or otherwise) or for any failure to disclose events that may have occurred and may affect the significance or accuracy of such information. This Exhibit C shall not require the Borrower to initiate any Auction Prepayment Offer.D - 2

Anything in this Note to the contrary notwithstanding, the indebtedness evidenced by this Note owed by any Payor that is a Loan Party or analogous party under any future debt facility the terms of which require such debt to be senior in right of payment to the indebtedness evidenced by this Note (such future debt facility, a “Future Senior Debt Facility” and such Loan Party or analogous party, an “Obligor”) to any Payee that is not an Obligor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to Secured Obligations, Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee Agreement) and all analogous senior secured obligations under any Future Senior Debt Facility of such Payor (such Secured Obligations, Guaranteed Obligations, analogous senior secured obligations under any Future Senior Debt Facility, other indebtedness and obligations under any Future Senior Debt Facility and other indebtedness and obligations in connection with any renewal, refunding, restructuring or refinancing thereof pursuant to the Credit Agreement, including interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any proceedings referred to in clause (i) below, whether or not such interest is an allowed claim in such proceeding, being hereinafter collectively referred to as “Senior Indebtedness”):

(i) in the event of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings, and any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceedings in connection therewith, relative to any Payor or to

its creditors, as such, or to its property, and in the event of any proceedings for voluntary liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of such Payor, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, then, (x) the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be paid in full in cash in respect of all amounts constituting Senior Indebtedness before any Payee that is not a Loan Party is entitled to receive (whether directly or indirectly), or make any demands for, any payment on account of this Note and (y) until the holders of Senior Indebtedness are paid in full in cash in respect of all amounts constituting Senior Indebtedness, any payment or distribution to which such Payee would otherwise be entitled (other than debt securities of such Payor that are subordinated, to at least the same extent as this Note, to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness then outstanding (such securities being hereinafter referred to as “Restructured Debt Securities”)) shall be made to the holders of Senior Indebtedness;

(ii) if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and after notice from the Administrative Agent (provided that no such notice shall be required to be given in the case of any Event of Default arising under Section 7.01 (h) or (i) of the Credit Agreement), then no payment or distribution of any kind or character shall be made by or on behalf of any Payor that is a Loan Party or any other Person on its behalf with respect to this Note owed to any Payee that is not a Loan Party; and

(iii) if any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than Restructured Debt Securities), in respect of this Note shall (despite these subordination provisions) be received by any Payee in violation of clause (i) or (ii) before all Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness (or their representatives), ratably according to the respective aggregate amounts remaining unpaid thereon, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash.

The foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, with respect to any Future Senior Debt Facility and the analogous provisions of the applicable documentation therefor. Upon the cure of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above, all such payments or distributions that are prohibited or modified by such items shall be automatically permitted to be made as if such items had no effect.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, no present or future holder of Senior Indebtedness shall be prejudiced in its right to enforce the subordination of this Note by any act or failure to act on the part of any Payor or by any act or failure to act on the part of such holder or any trustee or agent for such holder. Each Payee and each Payor hereby agree that the subordination of this Note is for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, on behalf of itself and the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent may, on behalf of itself and the Lenders, proceed to enforce the subordination provisions herein.

The indebtedness evidenced by this Note owed by any Payor that is not a Loan Party or any Payor that is a Loan Party, in each case, to any Payee that is a Loan Party shall not be subordinated to, and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with, any other obligation of such Payor.

Nothing contained in the subordination provisions set forth above is intended to or will impair, as between each Payor and each Payee, the obligations of such Payor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to such Payee the principal of and interest on this Note as and when due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or will affect the relative rights of such Payee and other creditors of such Payor other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

Each Payee is hereby authorized to record all loans and advances or other credit extensions made by it to any Payor (all of which shall be evidenced by this Note), and all repayments or prepayments thereof, in its books and records, such books and records constituting prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information contained therein.

Each Payor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind in connection with this Note. Except to the extent of any taxes required by law to be withheld, all payments under this Note shall be made without offset, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and each Payee and Payor is

authorized to enter into separate loan documentation (other than in the form of a promissory note or negotiable instrument, unless such note or instrument and the debt represented thereunder is subsequently excluded from this Note pursuant to the following paragraph by addition of such note or instrument onto Schedule B hereof) establishing the terms of such loans or advances (all of which shall be evidenced by this Note).

This Note shall be binding upon each Payor and its successors and assigns, and the terms and provisions of this Note shall inure to the benefit of each Payee and its successors and assigns, including subsequent holders hereof. The terms of this Note replace and supersede the terms and provisions of all other promissory notes or other instruments evidencing intercompany obligations (other than any obligations represented by promissory notes or instruments listed on Schedule B hereto as such Schedule may be amended, restated and supplemented from time to time by the applicable Payors and Payees) that create or evidence any loans or advances made on, before or after the date hereof by any Payee to any Payor, to the extent any such terms and provisions conflict with the terms of this Note, and in each case to the extent required to be pledged to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Collateral Agreement, or to the collateral agent pursuant to the equivalent Future Senior Debt Facility security document; provided however that, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms of this Note, this Note may be supplemented by separate loan documentation to the extent any Payor or Payee determines it is or would be required by regulations issued under Section 385 of the Code (assuming, for these purposes, that until final regulations are issued, any regulations currently in proposed form are finalized and currently effective in their present form) to maintain such separate loan documentation, and, to the extent the terms of such separate loan documentation are not inconsistent with the terms of this Note, the terms of this Note do not alter the economic terms contained in any separate loan documentation entered into by relevant Payees and Payors to govern such loans or advances.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, each promissory note listed in Schedule B shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with its terms thereunder, and shall be excluded from, and not be affected or modified by, the terms of this Note, provided that the indebtedness set forth on Schedule B, to the extent payable by an Obligor to a Payee that is not an Obligor, shall be subject to the subordination provisions set forth herein, or if necessary, at the Payor’s option or at the Authorized Representative’s reasonable request, a separately executed subordination agreement with subordination provisions no less favorable to the Secured Parties than those set forth herein. Any Payor and any Payee may amend, supplement or modify Schedule B from time to time through a written notice by such Payor and such Payee acknowledged by the Applicable Representative, in the event such Payor issues a separate promissory note to such Payee.

For the avoidance of doubt, this Note shall not in any way replace, or affect the principal amount of, any intercompany loan outstanding between any Payor and any Payee prior to the execution hereof, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, from and after the date hereof, each such intercompany loan shall be deemed to incorporate the terms set forth in this Note to the extent applicable and shall be deemed to be evidenced by this Note together with any documents executed prior to the date hereof in connection with such intercompany indebtedness.

From time to time after the date hereof, additional subsidiaries of the Parent may become parties hereto (as Payor and/or Payee, as the case may be) by executing a counterpart signature page to this Note (each additional subsidiary, an “Additional Party”). Upon delivery of such counterpart signature page to the Payees, notice of which is hereby waived by the other Payors, and updating or supplementing Schedule A hereto by adding the name of each Additional Party, each Additional Party shall be a Payor and/or a Payee, as the case may be, and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Party were an original signatory hereof. Each Payor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Payor or Payee hereunder. This Note shall be fully effective as to any Payor or Payee that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Payor or Payee hereunder.

After the date hereof, any Person that is a Note Party that ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent shall be released from the provisions of this Note at the times and in the manner set forth in Section 9.18 of the Credit Agreement.

To ensure that the obligations evidenced by this Note are treated as in “registered form” within the meaning of Section 163(f) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Borrower or its successor (acting solely for this purpose as an agent of each Payor) shall maintain, at its address for receipt of notices pursuant to Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement, a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the name and address of each endorsee, assignee or other transferee of interests, rights, and obligations hereunder and the commitment of, and principal amount (and interest amount) of the loan owing to, each such Payee. Notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, no endorsement, assignment, or other transfer of interests, rights, and obligations hereunder shall be effective unless and until such transfer is recorded in the Register and Borrower or its successor shall have received timely notice of the information required to be recorded in the Register pertaining to such transfer.

THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
