For purposes of Section 5.03, amounts in currencies other than US Dollars shall be translated into US Dollars at the currency exchange rates used in preparing the Borrower’s annual and quarterly financial statements.

ARTICLE II Amounts and Terms of the Advances

SECTION 2.01. The Loans; Application of Proceeds. (a) The Loans. Each Lender severally agrees, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, to make Loans to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day on or after the Closing Date until the Commitment Termination Date denominated in US Dollars or an Alternative Currency in an aggregate amount that will not result in (i) such Lender’s Revolving Exposure

23

exceeding such Lender’s Commitment or (ii) the total Revolving Exposure exceeding the aggregate Commitments. Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower may from time to time borrow Loans under this Section 2.01, prepay Loans in whole or in part pursuant to Section 2.09 and reborrow Loans under this Section 2.01, all on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

(b) Use of Proceeds. The Borrower shall use the proceeds of (i) the Loans (x) on the Closing Date, to repay any remaining portion of the loans and other obligations outstanding or accrued under the Existing Credit Agreement and (y) on and after the Closing Date, for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and (ii) the Letters of Credit, on and after the Closing Date, solely for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

SECTION 2.02. Making the Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) (i) Each Borrowing by the Borrower shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum, and shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of such Borrowing (in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Loans) or given not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the Business Day of such Borrowing (in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Loans), by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing. Subject to Section 2.07, each Borrowing denominated in US Dollars shall be comprised entirely of Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith, and each Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be comprised entirely of Eurocurrency Loans; provided that all Borrowings made on the Closing Date must be made as Base Rate Borrowings unless the Borrower shall have given the notice required for a Eurocurrency Borrowing hereunder and provided an indemnity letter, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, extending the benefits of Section 2.15 to Lenders in respect of such Borrowings.

(ii) Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower and shall be in writing in substantially the form of Exhibit B, specifying therein the following information: (1) the date of such Borrowing, (2) whether such Borrowing is to be a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Base Rate Borrowing, (3) the currency and aggregate amount of such Borrowing and (4) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Loans, the initial Interest Period for each such Loan.

(iii) Each Lender shall, before 2:00 p.m. (Local Time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available from the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, in same day funds in the applicable currency, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing.

24

(iv) After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds, and subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to the Applicable Funding Account.

(b) Each Borrowing and each Conversion or Continuation thereof shall consist of Loans of the same Type and currency (and, if such Loans are Eurocurrency Loans, having the same Interest Period) made, Continued or Converted on the same day by the Lenders ratably according to their respective Commitments. Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) if no election as to the Type of Loans denominated in US Dollars is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be comprised of Base Rate Loans, and (ii) if no Interest Period is specified with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(c) 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. The Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

(d) 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 by such Lender and such Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(f) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to subsection (d) or (e) of this Section absent manifest error 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 repay the Loans made to the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(g) Any Lender may, through the Administrative Agent, request that the Loans to be made by it to the Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory

25

note payable to such Lender (or its registered assigns), substantially in the form of Exhibit A (each such promissory note, a “Note”), in the amount of the Commitment of such Lender.

SECTION 2.03. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the Administrative Agent’s own account, an administrative agency fee at the times and in the amounts set forth in the Fee Letter.

(b)    The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the daily unused amount of the Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the Commitment Termination Date. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December of each year and on the Commitment Termination Date, commencing on December 31, 2015. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees, the Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Exposure of such Lender.

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a letter of credit fee in respect of each outstanding Letter of Credit at the times and in the amounts required by Section 2.16(g).

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

SECTION 2.04. Reductions of the Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitment of each Lender shall be automatically reduced to zero on the Commitment Termination Date.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce permanently and ratably in part the unused portions of the Commitments of the Lenders, provided that (i) each partial reduction shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of US$5,000,000 or an integral multiple of US$1,000,000 in excess thereof, (ii) the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the total Revolving Exposure of the Lenders then outstanding and (iii) any such reduction shall be without prejudice to the terms of Sections 2.16(b) and 2.16(e). Once terminated or reduced, the Commitments may not be reinstated.

SECTION 2.05. Repayment. The Borrower hereby unconditionally agrees to repay the full principal amount of each Loan by each Lender, and each such Loan shall mature, on the Maturity Date.

26

SECTION 2.06. Interest. (a) Ordinary Interest. The Borrower agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan, from the date of such Loan until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

(i) Base Rate Loans. While such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans as in effect from time to time, payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the date such Base Rate Loan shall be Converted or paid in full.

(ii) Eurocurrency Loans. While such Loan is a Eurocurrency Loan, a rate per annum for each Interest Period for such Loan equal to (A) if such Loan is denominated in US Dollars, the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate, and (B) if such Loan is denominated in an Alternative Currency, the Eurocurrency Rate, in each case plus the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Loans as in effect from time to time, payable on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day prior to the last day of such Interest Period that occurs at intervals of three months after the first day of such Interest Period, and on each date on which such Eurocurrency Loan shall be Continued, Converted or paid in full.

(b) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or (b) shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall pay interest on:

(i) the unpaid and outstanding principal amount of each Loan owing to each Lender, payable on demand (and in any event in arrears on the dates referred to in Section 2.06(a)(i) or (a)(ii) above), at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Loan pursuant to said Section 2.06(a)(i) or (a)(ii), as applicable; and

(ii) the amount of any Reimbursement Obligation, interest, fee or other amount outstanding and payable by the Borrower hereunder that is not paid when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace period), from the date such amount shall be due (after giving effect to any applicable grace period) until such amount shall be paid in full, payable on demand (and in any event in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full), at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.06(a)(i) above.

27

SECTION 2.07. Interest Rate Determinations; Changes in Rating Systems. (a) If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:

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

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Lenders that the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate or 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 Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any request to Convert any Borrowing to, or Continue any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing of the affected type (including Loans denominated in a particular currency, as applicable) shall be ineffective, and such Borrowing shall be Converted to or Continued on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as (A) if such Borrowing is denominated in US Dollars, a Base Rate Borrowing, or (B) if such Borrowing is denominated in an Alternative Currency, a Borrowing bearing interest at such rate as the affected Lenders and the Borrower may agree adequately reflects the costs to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans (or, in the absence of such agreement, shall be repaid as of the last day of the current Interest Period applicable thereto), (ii) any request by the Borrower for a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in US Dollars, shall be made as a Base Rate Borrowing (or such Borrowing shall not be made if the Borrower revokes (and in such circumstances, such request may be revoked notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement) the related Notice of Borrowing by written notice not later than one Business Day prior to the proposed date of such Borrowing) and (iii) any request by the Borrower for a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one type of Borrowings (for example, Loans having certain Interest Periods or denominated in a particular currency), then the other types of Borrowing shall be permitted.

(b) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period following the initial Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Loans in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, or to notify the Administrative Agent that it will repay or Convert such Loans at the end of the then existing Interest Period therefor, by the time a notice of Continuation would be required pursuant to Section 2.08(b), the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower and the Lenders reasonably promptly after such time and such Loans will automatically Continue as

28

Eurocurrency Loans with a one-month Interest Period on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) each Eurocurrency Loan denominated in US Dollars will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Loan and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans into, Eurocurrency Loans denominated in US Dollars shall be suspended.

(d) If the rating system of either Xxxxx’x or S&P shall change, or if either such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) shall negotiate in good faith to amend the references to specific ratings in this Agreement to reflect such changed rating system or the non‑availability of ratings from such rating agency (provided that any such amendment to such specific ratings shall not be effective without the approval of the Majority Lenders).

SECTION 2.08. Voluntary Conversion and Continuation of Loans. (a) The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion, and subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, Convert all or any portion of the outstanding Loans of one Type comprising part of the same Borrowing into Loans of the other Type; provided that in the case of any such Conversion of a Eurocurrency Loan into a Base Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.15. Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Loans to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurocurrency Loans, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Loan. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, the Borrower will not be permitted to Convert any Loan into a Loan denominated in a different currency.

(b) The Borrower may, on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Continuation, and subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, Continue all or any portion of the outstanding Eurocurrency Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing for one or more Interest Periods; provided that in the case of any such Continuation on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.15. Each such notice of a Continuation shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Continuation, (ii) the Eurocurrency Loans to be Continued and (iii) the duration of the initial Interest Period (or Interest Periods) for the Eurocurrency Loans subject to such Continuation. Each notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, the Borrower will not be permitted to Continue any Loan as a Loan denominated in a different currency.

29

SECTION 2.09. Prepayments of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have no right to prepay any principal amount of any Loan other than as provided in subsections (b) and (c) below.

(b) The Borrower may, on notice (given not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the second Business Day prior to the date of the proposed prepayment of Loans (in the case of Eurocurrency Loans) or given not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the Business Day of the proposed prepayment of Loans (in the case of Base Rate Loans)), stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amounts of the Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than US$5,000,000 and (ii) in the case of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Loan on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.15.

(c) If at any time the total Revolving Exposure exceeds the aggregate Commitments, then (i) on the last day of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) on each other date on which any Base Rate Borrowing shall be outstanding, the Borrower shall prepay Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of (A) the amount necessary to eliminate such excess (after giving effect to any other prepayment of Loans on such day) and (B) the amount of the applicable Borrowings referred to in clause (i) or (ii), as applicable; provided, however, that, in any event, the Borrower shall prepay Loans in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess by the 90th day after such excess first arises. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the total Revolving Exposure exceeds 105% of the aggregate Commitments, then the Borrower shall, not later than the next Business Day, prepay one or more Borrowings in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to reduce the total Revolving Exposure to an amount not in excess of the aggregate Commitments.

SECTION 2.10. Payments; Computations; Etc. (a) Payments. The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under each other Loan Document to which it is a party without set-off or counterclaim not later than 11:00 a.m. (Local Time) on the day when due in same day funds to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose. All payments hereunder of principal or interest in respect of any Loan (or of any breakage indemnity in respect of any Loan) shall be made in the currency of such Loan; all other payments hereunder and under each other Loan Document shall be made in US Dollars, except as otherwise expressly provided. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.15 and subject to Section 2.16) to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be

30

applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.06(c), from and after the Assignment Date set forth therein, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such Assignment Date directly between themselves.

(b) Computations. All computations of interest based on Citibank’s base rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. All computations of interest based on the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate, Eurocurrency Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of the commitment fee and letter of credit fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days or, in the case of interest on any Loan denominated in Sterling, on the basis of a year of 365 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or a fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Payment Dates. Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes would be due on a day other than a Business Day, such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and any such extension of such due date shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Loans to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(d) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available at such time in accordance with Section 2.02(a)(iii) 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 with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid

31

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.

(e) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or an Issuing Lender 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 such Issuing Lender the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or such Issuing Lender severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or such Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

SECTION 2.11. Sharing of Payments; Etc. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value and in the currency of the relevant Loan) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; 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 subsection shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) 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 Reimbursement Obligations other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this subsection shall apply).

32

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 setoff 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.

SECTION 2.12. Increased Costs. (a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) impose on any Lender, any Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (in all cases, other than Taxes referred to in Section 2.12(a)(iii)) affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

(iii) subject any Lender, Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes on payments pursuant to the Loan Documents or (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent of making, continuing, converting to or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Administrative Agent of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.12, no Lender shall demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction referred to in Section 2.12(a)(iii) if it shall not be the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation and unless such demand is generally consistent with such Lender’s treatment of comparable borrowers of such Lender in the United States with respect to similarly affected commitments or loans. This Section 2.12(a) shall not apply to matters covered by Section 2.13.

33

(b) Capital and Liquidity Requirements. If any Lender or any Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender, the Loans made by such Lender or the Letters of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of any Lender or any Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender, such Issuing Lender or such Person’s holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

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

SECTION 2.13. Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including deductions for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make

34

such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above and without duplication of subsection (c) below, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes that arise from any payment made by it under any Loan Document to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. Each Lender shall notify the Borrower on or before the Closing Date of any Other Taxes that to its knowledge are imposed with respect to any Loan Document by the jurisdiction in which such Lender is organized or in which its Applicable Lending Office is located.

(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender, within 30 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) attributable to the Borrower under any Loan Document and paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender or such Issuing Lender and any penalties, interest and 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 an Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that if the Borrower has satisfied its indemnity obligation and delivers to the Administrative Agent an opinion of nationally recognized counsel to the effect that it is more likely than not that such assertion by the Governmental Authority is incorrect as a matter of law, each Lender shall reasonably assist the Borrower in contesting such Taxes (at the sole expense of the Borrower) and seeking refund thereof; and provided further that such assistance shall not be construed to impose on any Lender an obligation to disclose information it reasonably considers confidential or proprietary or arrange its tax affairs other than as such Lender sees fit.

(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 8.06(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby

35

authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower 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.

(f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.13(f)(ii)(A), 2.13(f)(ii)(B) and 2.13(g) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

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

(B) Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon such form becoming obsolete or invalid under

36

applicable regulations or upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender remains legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or applicable substitute or successor form) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,

(2) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or applicable substitute or successor form),

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

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

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

Each Foreign Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered form or certificate to the Borrower.

37

(g) FATCA. 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 clause (g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

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

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Lender or a Lender determines, in good faith and its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section (including, in lieu of an actual refund, a credit against taxes provided by the taxing authority that imposed such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes), it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund or the value of the credit in lieu thereof (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 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, such Issuing Lender or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit in lieu thereof); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender is required to repay or return such refund (or credit in lieu thereof) to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.

SECTION 2.14. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, 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 2.13, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.13, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, 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 2.13, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, modification or consent that under Section 8.01 requires the consent of all Lenders (or all affected Lenders) and with respect to which the Majority Lenders shall have granted their consent, 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, and consents required by, Section 8.06), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 8.04 (but in respect of Section 8.04 only for Lenders that are not Defaulting Lenders)) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on and as of the date of such notice and the date of such assignment;

(ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received the assignment fee specified in Section 8.06;

(iii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and accrued interest thereon, its funded participations in Reimbursement Obligations, if applicable, and accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.15) 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);

(iv) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.13, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

39

(v) in the case of any such assignment resulting from the failure to provide consent, the assignee shall have given such consent and, as a result of such assignment and any contemporaneous assignments and consents, the applicable amendment, waiver, modification or consent can be effected; and

(vi) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment and delegation required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment and delegation need not be a party thereto.

SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender which is in the nature of funding breakage costs or costs of liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds and any other related expense (but excluding loss of margin or other loss of anticipated profit), upon reasonable notice thereof, which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making any Borrowing of Eurocurrency Loans after the Borrower has given a Notice of Borrowing requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (including as a result of any failure to fulfill, on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing, the applicable conditions set forth in Article III), (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of Eurocurrency Loan when due after the Borrower has given notice thereof in accordance with this Agreement, (c) the making by the Borrower of a prepayment of any Eurocurrency Loan on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, (d) default by the Borrower in payment when due of the principal of or interest on any Eurocurrency Loan, (e) the Conversion or Continuation of any Eurocurrency Loan on a day other than on the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan, or (f) any assignment such Lender is required to make pursuant to Section 2.14(b) if such Lender holds Eurocurrency Loans at the time of such assignment. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section and delivered to the Borrower 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 2.16. Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Commitments may be utilized by the Borrower upon its request for the issuance by an Issuing Lender selected by the Borrower of one or more standby letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) for its account; provided that (i) each Letter of Credit may be denominated only in US Dollars and shall have a face amount of not less than US$1,000,000, (ii) the total Revolving Exposure shall not at any time exceed the aggregate Commitments, (iii) the portion of the Letter of Credit Exposure attributable to Letters of

40

Credit issued by the applicable Issuing Lender shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Commitment of such Issuing Lender, (iv) the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Limit and (v) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit may not extend beyond the earlier of (x) the date five Business Days prior to the Commitment Termination Date and (y) twelve months following the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The following additional provisions shall apply to Letters of Credit:

(a) Notice of Issuance. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at least five Business Days’ irrevocable prior notice (effective upon receipt) (or such other time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the Issuing Lender, in its or their sole discretion) of the issuance of each Letter of Credit in substantially the form of Exhibit E (a “Notice of Letter of Credit Issuance”), specifying the Issuing Lender, the Business Day (which shall be not later than 30 days before the Commitment Termination Date) on which such Letter of Credit is to be issued and describing in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Letter of Credit (including the beneficiary thereof) and the nature of the transactions or obligations proposed to be supported thereby. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the respective Issuing Lender of the contents thereof, and shall notify each other Lender of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such request.

(b) Participations in Letters of Credit. On each day during the period commencing with the issuance by an Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been terminated, the Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the then undrawn face amount of such Letter of Credit. Each Lender agrees that, upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder, it shall automatically acquire a participation in the respective Issuing Lender’s liability under such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such liability, and each Lender thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to such Issuing Lender to pay and discharge when due, its Commitment Percentage of such Issuing Lender’s liability under such Letter of Credit.

(c) Notice by Issuing Lenders of Drawings. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower (through the Administrative Agent) of the amount to be paid by such Issuing Lender as a result of such demand, provide to the Borrower copies of documents delivered by the beneficiary with such demand and advise the Borrower of the date on which payment is to be made by such Issuing Lender to such beneficiary in respect of such demand. The Borrower hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally agrees to (i) pay and reimburse the Administrative Agent forthwith for account of such Issuing Lender for the amount of each demand for payment under such Letter of Credit that is in substantial compliance with the provisions of such Letter of Credit at the later of (x) the Business Day on which such Issuing

41

Lender shall have notified the Borrower of such payment and (y) the date on which payment is to be made by such Issuing Lender to the beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind (all of which are hereby expressly waived) and (ii) pay interest to the Administrative Agent for account of such Issuing Lender on such amount from the date such Issuing Lender made the corresponding payment under such Letter of Credit until the date such payment by the Borrower is made at the rate set forth in Section 2.06(b).

(d) Notice by the Borrower of Borrowing for Reimbursement. Forthwith upon its receipt of a notice referred to in clause (c) of this Section 2.16, the Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent whether or not the Borrower intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for the amount of the related demand for payment and, if it does, submit a Notice of Borrowing as provided in Section 2.02(a) hereof.

(e) Payments by Lenders to Issuing Lenders. Each Lender shall severally forthwith pay to the Administrative Agent for account of the respective Issuing Lender at its Domestic Lending Office in US Dollars and in immediately available funds the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any payment under a Letter of Credit upon notice by such Issuing Lender (through the Administrative Agent) to such Lender requesting such payment and specifying such amount. Each such Lender’s obligation to make such payment to the Administrative Agent for account of such Issuing Lender under this clause (e), and such Issuing Lender’s right to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the failure of any other Lender to make its payment under this clause (e), the financial condition of the Borrower, the existence of any Default or the termination of the Commitments or any other circumstance whatsoever, including any force majeure or other event that under any uniform practices to which any Letter of Credit is subject (including Section 3.14 of ISP 98 or any successor publication of the International Chamber of Commerce) permits a drawing to be made under such Letter of Credit after the expiration thereof. Each such payment to an Issuing Lender shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(f) Participations in Reimbursement Obligations. Upon the making of each payment by a Lender to an Issuing Lender pursuant to clause (e) of this Section 2.16 in respect of any Letter of Credit, such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to such Issuing Lender by the Borrower hereunder and under the Letter of Credit Documents relating to such Letter of Credit, and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage in any interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder and under such Letter of Credit Documents in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation (other than the commissions, charges, costs and expenses payable to such Issuing Lender pursuant to clause (g) of this Section 2.16). Upon receipt by an Issuing Lender from or for account of the Borrower of any payment in respect of any

42

Reimbursement Obligation or any such interest or other amount (including by way of set-off or application of proceeds of any collateral security), such Issuing Lender shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender entitled thereto such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such payment, each such payment by such Issuing Lender to be made in the same money and funds in which received by such Issuing Lender. In the event any payment received by an Issuing Lender and so paid to the Lenders hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by such Issuing Lender, each Lender shall, upon the request of such Issuing Lender (through the Administrative Agent), repay to such Issuing Lender (through the Administrative Agent) the amount of such payment paid to such Lender, with interest at the rate specified in clause (j) of this Section 2.16.

(g) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (ratably in accordance with its respective Commitment Percentage) a letter of credit fee in respect of each Letter of Credit at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Loans from time to time in effect on the daily undrawn face amount of such Letter of Credit for the period from the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (i) in the case of a Letter of Credit that expires in accordance with its terms, until such expiration date, and (ii) in the case of a Letter of Credit that is drawn in full or is otherwise terminated other than on the stated expiration date of such Letter of Credit, until the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full or is terminated (such fee to be non‑refundable, to be paid quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, on the Commitment Termination Date and on the date of such termination or expiration, and to be calculated for any day after giving effect to any payments made under such Letter of Credit on such day). In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for account of the applicable Issuing Lender an issuance fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender in an amount to be agreed between the Borrower and such Issuing Lender plus all charges, costs and expenses, in each case, in the amounts customarily charged by such Issuing Lender from time to time in like circumstances with respect to the issuance of each Letter of Credit and drawings and other transactions relating thereto.

(h) Issuing Lender Reports. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Lender issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the stated amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender makes a disbursement under any Letter of Credit, the date and amount of such disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails to reimburse a Reimbursement Obligation required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Lender

43

on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such Reimbursement Obligation and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender.

(i) Conditions Precedent to Issuance. The issuance by an Issuing Lender of each Letter of Credit shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Article III, be subject to the conditions precedent that (i) such Letter of Credit shall be in such form, contain such terms and support such transactions as shall be reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender consistent with its then current practices and procedures with respect to letters of credit of the same type, and (ii) the Borrower shall have executed and delivered such applications, agreements and other instruments relating to such Letter of Credit as such Issuing Lender shall have reasonably requested consistent with its then current practices and procedures with respect to letters of credit of the same type; provided that in the event of any conflict between any such application, agreement or other instrument and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. Not later than 5:00 p.m. (Local Time) on the Business Day preceding the date of issuance of any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender shall request confirmation from the Administrative Agent that such issuance would not cause the limitations set forth in clause (ii) of the first paragraph of this Section 2.16 to be exceeded, and such Issuing Lender shall not issue such Letter of Credit if (x) the Administrative Agent advises such Issuing Lender that such limitations would be exceeded or (y) the Administrative Agent notifies such Issuing Lender that the Administrative Agent has been advised by any other Lender or the Borrower that a condition precedent under Section 3.02 relating to such issuance has not been satisfied.

(j) Interest Payable to Issuing Lenders by Lenders. To the extent that any Lender shall fail to pay any amount required to be paid pursuant to clause (e) or (f) of this Section 2.16 on the due date therefor, such Lender shall pay interest to the respective Issuing Lender (through the Administrative Agent) on such amount from and including such due date to but excluding the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate; provided that if such Lender shall fail to make such payment to such Issuing Lender within five Business Days of such due date, then, retroactively to the due date, such Lender shall be obligated to pay interest on such amount at the Base Rate.

(k) Modifications and Supplements. The issuance by an Issuing Lender of any modification or supplement to any Letter of Credit hereunder shall be subject to the same conditions as are applicable under this Section 2.16 to the issuance of new Letters of Credit, and no such modification or supplement shall be issued hereunder unless either (i) the Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such modified or supplemented form, or (ii) each Lender shall have consented thereto.

(l) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph (l), the Borrower shall immediately deposit into a deposit account designated by

44

the Administrative Agent (the “Cash Collateral Account”) an amount in cash equal to the Letter of Credit Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Section 6.01. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over the Cash Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposit shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in the Cash Collateral Account. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, and amounts in the Cash Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Lender for Letter of Credit disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower in respect of the Letter of Credit Exposure at such time, and, to the extent of any amounts in excess of the foregoing, for the payment of the other obligations of the Borrower hereunder.

(m) Designation of Additional Issuing Lenders. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), designate as additional Issuing Lenders one or more Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Lender of an appointment as an Issuing Lender hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement, which shall set forth the Letter of Credit Commitment of such Issuing Lender and shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such designated Lender and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to include such Lender in its capacity as an issuer of Letters of Credit hereunder.

SECTION 2.17. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if one or more Lenders become Defaulting Lenders, then, upon notice (with applicable notice periods set forth below) to such Defaulting Lenders and the Borrower to such effect by the Administrative Agent (which notice may be given only upon the Administrative Agent becoming aware that any Lender shall have become a Defaulting Lender, including as a result of being advised thereof by the Borrower or the Majority Lenders), the following provisions shall apply for so long as any such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) immediately upon the Administrative Agent’s giving of such notice, the Commitment of each Defaulting Lender shall be disregarded in determining whether the Majority Lenders shall have taken any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document

45

(including any consent to any waiver, amendment or other modification pursuant to Section 8.01); provided that any waiver, amendment or other modification that, disregarding the effect of this clause (a), requires the consent of all Lenders or of all Lenders affected thereby shall continue to require the consent of each Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms hereof;

(b) immediately upon the Administrative Agent’s giving of such notice, (i) no commitment fee shall accrue on the unused amount of the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(b) and (ii) no letter of credit fee shall accrue for the account of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.03(c);

(c) if any Letter of Credit Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, (i) upon receiving at least three Business Days’ notice from the Administrative Agent, all or any part of the Letter of Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the Lenders other than the Defaulting Lender in accordance with their Commitment Percentages but only to the extent that the non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Exposure plus such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments; provided that in no event shall any non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Exposure exceed such Lender’s Commitment; (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent be required to cash collateralize Letters of Credit in the amount of the Letter of Credit Exposure of the Defaulting Lender on terms reasonably satisfactory to each Issuing Lender (in which case any such cash collateral held by an Issuing Lender will be applied as a payment of Reimbursement Obligations immediately prior to any exercise by such Issuing Lender of its rights to require the funding of participations in such Reimbursement Obligations pursuant to Section 2.16(e)) for as long as such Letter of Credit Exposure is outstanding; (iii) in the event the Letter of Credit Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.03(c) and 2.16(g) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitment Percentages after giving effect to such reallocations; (iv) in the event the Borrower cash collateralizes Letters of Credit in the amount of the Letter of Credit Exposure of the Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (ii) above, then the Lenders other than the Defaulting Lender will be required to fund participations in the remaining Letter of Credit Exposure under Section 2.16(e) in accordance with their Commitment Percentages; (v) the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender with respect to Section 2.03(b) of this Agreement with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure; and (vi) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Sections 2.03(c) and 2.16(g) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure (and allocated among the Issuing Lenders ratably based on the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Lender) shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders until and to the extent that such Letter of Credit Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized;

46

(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless (i) it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding Letter of Credit Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.17(c), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.17(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein) or (ii) the Issuing Lender shall have entered into such other arrangements with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender that are reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Lender to defease any risk to it in respect of such Defaulting Lender hereunder;

(e) immediately upon the Administrative Agent’s giving of such notice, the Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to a Defaulting Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), elect to irrevocably terminate from time to time the unused portion of the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender. Such termination shall be effective, with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s then existing unused Commitments, on the date set forth in such notice (provided, however, that such date shall be no earlier than three Business Days after receipt of such notice) and with respect to any unused Commitment thereafter arising, on the later of the date set forth in such notice and the date on which such unused Commitment first arises (and no commitment fee will be payable in respect of such unused Commitment terminated on the date it arises). Upon termination of a Defaulting Lender’s unused Commitments under this Section 2.17(d), the Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid all accrued commitment fees payable to such Defaulting Lender and all other amounts due and payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder. Upon such payments, the obligations of such Defaulting Lender hereunder with respect to such unused Commitments which have been terminated shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged; provided, however, that such Defaulting Lender’s rights and obligations provided in Section 8.10 with respect to such unused Commitments which have been terminated shall survive such release and discharge as to matters occurring prior to such date;

(f) immediately upon the Administrative Agent’s giving of such notice, any amount payable to or for the account of any Defaulting Lender in its capacity as a Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) may, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account and be applied, at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent, first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder and, second, to the pro rata payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, and the Issuing Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Letter of Credit Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall

47

determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that, except as otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder of a Lender’s status from a Defaulting Lender to a non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to, but may in its sole discretion, ascertain or inquire as to whether any Lender shall have become, or shall have ceased to be, a Defaulting Lender, and shall not be required to give any notice or take any other action inconsistent with any determination made by it as to whether any Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.18. Incremental Commitments. (a) The Borrower may on one or more occasions, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, request, after the Closing Date and prior to the Maturity Date, the establishment of Incremental Commitments; provided that the aggregate, cumulative amount of all Incremental Commitments established pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall not exceed US$500,000,000. Each such notice shall specify (i) the date on which the Borrower proposes that the Incremental Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than five Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Administrative Agent) after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent, (ii) the amount of the Incremental Commitments being requested and (iii) the identity of each Lender or other Person that the Borrower proposes become an Incremental Lender with respect thereto, together with the proposed aggregate amount of the Incremental Commitment for each such Lender or other Person (it being agreed that (x) any Lender approached to provide any Incremental Commitment may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Commitment and (y) any such Person that is not a Lender must be an Eligible Assignee that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent).

(b) The terms and conditions of any Incremental Commitment and Loans and other extensions of credit to be made thereunder shall be identical to the terms and conditions of the Commitments and Loans and other extensions of credit made thereunder.

(c) The Incremental Commitments shall be effected pursuant to one or more Incremental Facility Agreements executed and delivered by only the Borrower, each Incremental Lender providing such Incremental Commitments, and the Administrative Agent; provided that no Incremental Commitments shall become effective unless (i) no event has occurred and is continuing, or would result from such Borrowing or from the application of the proceeds therefrom or from the issuance of such Letter of Credit that constitutes a Default or Event of Default, (ii) on the date of effectiveness thereof, the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in Section 4.01 shall be true and correct in all material respects as though made on and as of such date, (iii) after giving effect to and the making of Loans and other extensions of credit thereunder to be made on the date

48

of effectiveness thereof, the Borrower shall be in compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 5.03, (iv) the Borrower shall make any payments required to be made in connection with such Incremental Commitments and the related transactions under this Section 2.18 and (v) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent such legal opinions, board resolutions, secretary’s certificates, officer’s certificates and other documents of the types mentioned in Section 3.01(b), (c) and (d) as shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction. Notwithstanding Section 8.01, each Incremental Facility Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect only such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent to give effect to the Incremental Commitment referenced therein and in any event in a manner consistent with Section 2.18(b). This Section 2.18 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.11 or Section 8.01 to the contrary.

(d) Upon effectiveness of an Incremental Commitment of any Incremental Lender, (i) such Incremental Lender shall be deemed to be a “Lender” hereunder, and henceforth shall be entitled to all the rights of, and benefits accruing to, Lenders hereunder and shall be bound by all agreements, acknowledgements and other obligations of Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and (ii)(A) such Incremental Commitment shall constitute (or, in the event such Incremental Lender already has a Commitment, shall increase) the Commitment of such Incremental Lender and (B) the aggregate Commitments of all Lenders shall be increased by the amount of such Incremental Commitment, in each case, subject to further increase or reduction from time to time as set forth in the definition of the term “Commitment.” For the avoidance of doubt, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Commitment, the Letter of Credit Exposure of the Incremental Lender holding such Commitment, and the Commitment Percentages of all the Lenders, shall automatically be adjusted to give effect thereto.

(e) On the date of the effectiveness of any Incremental Commitments, each Lender shall be deemed to have assigned to each Incremental Lender holding such Incremental Commitments, and each such Incremental Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from each Lender, such interests in participations in Letters of Credit outstanding on such date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such participations in Letters of Credit will be held by all the Lenders (including such Incremental Lenders) ratably in accordance with their Commitment Percentage after giving effect to the effectiveness of such Incremental Commitments. Any Loans outstanding immediately prior to the date of the effectiveness of such Incremental Commitments that are Eurocurrency Loans shall (except to the extent otherwise repaid in accordance herewith) continue to be held by, and all interest thereon will continue to accrue for the accounts of, the Lenders holding such Loans immediately prior to the date of the effectiveness of such Incremental Commitments, in each case until the last day of the then-current Interest Period applicable to any such Loan, at which time such Loans will be repaid or refinanced with new Loans made pursuant to Section 2.01 in accordance with the Commitment Percentages of the Lenders (including the Incremental Lenders) after giving effect to the effectiveness of such Incremental Commitments; provided, however, that upon

49

the occurrence of any Event of Default, each Incremental Lender will promptly purchase (for cash at face value and in the currency of the relevant Loan) assignments of portions of such outstanding Loans of other Lenders so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans that are Eurocurrency Loans are held by the Lenders (including the Incremental Lenders) in accordance with their then-current Commitment Percentages. Any such assignments shall be effect in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06, provided that the parties hereto hereby consent to such assignments and the minimum assignment amounts and processing and recordation fee set forth in Section 8.06(b) shall not apply thereto. Any Loans outstanding on the date of the effectiveness of such Incremental Commitments that are Base Rate Loans shall either be prepaid on such date or refinanced on such date (subject to the satisfaction of applicable borrowing conditions) with Loans made on such date by the Lenders (including the Incremental Lenders) in accordance with their Commitment Percentages. In order to effect any such refinancing, (i) each Incremental Lender will make Loans that are Base Rate Loans by transferring funds to the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the aggregate outstanding amount of such Loans of such Type times a percentage obtained by dividing the amount of such Incremental Lender’s Incremental Commitment by the sum of all Commitments (after giving effect to the effectiveness of the Incremental Commitments on such date) and (ii) such funds will be applied to the prepayment of outstanding Loans that are Base Rate Loans held by the Lenders, in such amounts so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans that are Base Rate Loans will be held by the Lenders in accordance with their then-current Commitment Percentages. On the date of the effectiveness of such Incremental Commitments, the Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the accounts of the Lenders receiving such prepayments, accrued and unpaid interest on the aggregate principal amount of the Loans being prepaid. The Administrative Agent and the lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(f) The Administrative Agent shall notify Lenders promptly upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of any notice from the Borrower referred to in Section 2.18(a) and of the effectiveness of any Incremental Commitments, in each case advising the Lenders of the details thereof and of the Commitment Percentages of the Lenders after giving effect thereto and of the assignments deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 2.18(e).

SECTION 2.19. Redenomination of Certain Designated Foreign Currencies. (a) Each obligation of any party to this Agreement to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption (in accordance with the EMU Legislation). If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London Interbank Market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency (and the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders); provided

50

that if any Borrowing in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Borrowing, at the end of the then current Interest Period.

(b) Without prejudice and in addition to any method of conversion or rounding prescribed by any EMU Legislation and (i) without limiting the liability of the Borrower for any amount due under this Agreement and (ii) without increasing any Commitment of any Lender, all references in this Agreement to minimum amounts (or integral multiples thereof) denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the date hereof shall, immediately upon such adoption, be replaced by references to such minimum amounts (or integral multiples thereof) as shall be specified herein with respect to Borrowings denominated in Euro.

(c) Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent (with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld)) may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro.

SECTION 2.20. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that any Change in Law makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make or Continue Eurocurrency Loans or to fund or otherwise maintain Eurocurrency Loans hereunder, (a) the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans into, Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and (b) during such suspension, if lawful, such Lender shall instead be obligated to make, Continue, or Convert Eurocurrency Loans (i) if denominated or requested to be denominated in US Dollars, as Base Rate Loans, and (ii) if denominated or requested to be denominated in an Alternative Currency, as loans that bear interest at a local currency rate reasonably determined by such Lender that reflects its cost of funding, plus the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Loans.

(d) Enforceability. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by it and constitutes, and each other Loan Document when executed and delivered by it will constitute, its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

The Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Lenders its Consolidated balance sheet and Consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity and cash flows as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, reported on by PricewaterhouseCoopers, independent public accountants. Such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the Borrower and its Consolidated Subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with GAAP. Since March 31, 2015, there has been no material adverse change in the business, financial condition or operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees (i) to provide to the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication), promptly after the date of this Agreement, an e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

(e) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

SECTION 8.03. No Waiver; Remedies; Setoff. (a) No failure on the part of any Lender, any Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

(b) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of such now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such Issuing Lender irrespective of whether or not such Lender or such Issuing Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or such Issuing Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Lender or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the

71

Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

SECTION 8.04. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out‑of‑pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing Lender 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 incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender) in connection with the enforcement or, during the continuance of an Event of Default, protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made and Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out‑of‑pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans and Letters of Credit.

(b) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender, each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the arrangement and the syndication of the credit facilities provided for therein, the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by

72

final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 8.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Lender in connection with such capacity. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its Commitment Percentage at the time (or most recently in effect).

(d) Waiver of Consequential Damages; Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto agrees that it will not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, 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, any 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 referred to in paragraph (b) above 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 such damages are found in a final nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or breach in bad faith of its obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 10 days after demand therefor.

SECTION 8.05. Binding Effect; Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Lender that such Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective

73

successors and permitted assigns (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Lender that issues a Letter of Credit), except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.

SECTION 8.06. Assignments and Participations. (a) Successors and Assigns Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, each Issuing Lender, Participants to the extent provided in subsection (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that:

(i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, the aggregate amount of the Commitments (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after having received notice thereof from the Administrative Agent;

74

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned;

(iii) any assignment of a Commitment must be approved (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) by (x) the Administrative Agent, unless the proposed assignee is itself a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, (y) each Issuing Lender, if such assignment would increase the obligation of the proposed assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not outstanding) and (z) the Borrower, unless (A) the proposed assignee is itself a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (B) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after having received notice thereof from the Administrative Agent; and

(iv) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of US$3,500, and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the Assignment Date specified in each Assignment and Assumption (an “Assignment Date”), the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12 and 8.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to such Assignment Date. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at its address specified in Section 8.02 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of, and stated interest on, the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be

75

conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso of Section 8.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.15 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Sections 2.13(f) and 2.13(g) (it being understood and agreed that the documentation required under Sections 2.13(f) and 2.13(g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.03(b) as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.11 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or except to the Borrower upon request. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt,

76

the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

If a Foreign Lender sells a participating interest to a Participant which seeks to obtain the benefits of Section 2.13, then such Lender shall promptly provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with documentation reflecting the portion of its Commitment and/or Loans sold pursuant to such participating interest on a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor or substitute form) with any required attachments and the portion of its Commitment and/or Loans retained on a properly completed or duly executed forms or statements as required pursuant to Sections 2.13(f) and 2.13(g).

(e) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.12, 2.13 or 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.

(f) Certain Pledges. 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; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

SECTION 8.07. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc. (a) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

(b) Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto 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 court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable 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 any Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Waiver of Venue. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that

77

it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document in any court referred to in subsection (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Service of Process. The Borrower agrees that service of process in any action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to CT Corporation System (the “Process Agent”) as agent for the Borrower in New York, New York for service of process at its address at 000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower; provided that, if the Process Agent ceases to act as the Borrower’s agent for service of process, the Borrower will, by an instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, appoint another Person (subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent) in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York to act as the Borrower’s agent for service of process. Each other party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.02. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

SECTION 8.08. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 8.09. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Execution. (a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 3.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic means (including .pdf) shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart thereof.

(b) The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping

78

system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 8.10. Survival. The provisions of Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15 and 8.04 and Article VII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. In addition, all covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to any Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans or issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.

SECTION 8.11. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY 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 PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON 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 THE LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 8.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, service providers, advisors and other representatives (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), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory

79

authority), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under any Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to any Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the prior written consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

SECTION 8.13. Material Non-Public Information. (a) EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR SECURITIES THEREOF AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

(b) ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE BORROWER AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES OR SECURITIES THEREOF. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN

80

MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

SECTION 8.14. Conversion of Currencies. (a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased by the Administrative Agent with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b) The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction 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 Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in such currency, the Applicable Creditor, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).The obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 8.14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

SECTION 8.15. No Fiduciary Relationship. Each Borrower acknowledges that neither any Lender nor the Administrative Agent has any fiduciary relationship with, or fiduciary duty to, the Borrower arising out of or in connection with any Loan Document, and the relationship between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrower, on the other, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor. This Agreement does not create a joint venture among the parties.

SECTION 8.16. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 8.17. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address

81

of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.

SECTION 8.18. Waiver of Break Funding Payments. Each Lender who is also a Lender under the Existing Credit Agreement hereby consents to waive any rights to receive any fees payable under Section 2.18 of the Existing Credit Agreement which are incurred solely as a result of any prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan (as defined therein) issued under the Existing Credit Agreement made on the date hereof.
