W I T N E S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Company has requested that the Banks provide a revolving credit facility to the Company in the aggregate principal amount of $1,500,000,000; and

WHEREAS, for valuable consideration, the Banks are willing to provide such credit facility upon and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS

1.1 Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings:

“5-Year Revolving Facility”: the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 4, 2021, among the Company, as borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto and JPMorgan, as agent and CAF loan agent.

“Acquisition Indebtedness”: any Indebtedness of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that has been issued for the purpose of financing, in whole or in part, a Material Acquisition and any related transactions or series of related transactions (including for the purpose of refinancing or replacing all or a portion of any pre-existing Indebtedness of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the person(s) or assets to be acquired); provided that (a) the release of the proceeds thereof to the Company and its Subsidiaries is contingent upon the consummation of such Material Acquisition and, pending such release, such proceeds are held in escrow (and, if the definitive agreement (or, in the case of a tender offer or similar transaction, the definitive offer document) for such acquisition is terminated prior to the consummation of such Material Acquisition or if such Material Acquisition is otherwise not consummated by the date specified in the definitive documentation relating to such Indebtedness, such proceeds shall be promptly applied to satisfy and discharge all obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of such Indebtedness) or (b) such Indebtedness contains a “special mandatory redemption” provision (or other similar provision) or otherwise permits such Indebtedness to be redeemed or prepaid if such Material Acquisition is not consummated by the date specified in the definitive documentation relating to such Indebtedness (and if the definitive agreement (or, in the case of a tender offer or similar transaction, the definitive offer document) for such Material Acquisition is terminated in accordance with its terms prior to the consummation of such Material Acquisition or such Material Acquisition is otherwise not consummated by the date specified in the definitive documentation relating to such Indebtedness, such Indebtedness is so redeemed or prepaid within 90 days of such termination or such specified date, as the case may be).

“Affected Financial Institution”: (a) any EEA Financial Institution or (b) any UK Financial Institution.

“Affiliate”: as to any Person, any other Person (other than a Subsidiary) which, directly or indirectly, is in control of, is controlled by, or is under common control with, such Person. For purposes of this definition, “control” of a Person means the power, directly or indirectly, either to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether by contract or otherwise.

“Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit”: as to any Bank at any time, an amount equal to the sum of the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans and CAF Loans made by such Bank then outstanding.

“Agreement”: this 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement, as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time.

“Alternate Base Rate”: for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the NYFRB Rate in effect on such day plus ¹⁄₂ of 1% and (c) the Eurodollar Base Rate for a one month Interest Period on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) plus 1%; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Eurodollar Base Rate for any day shall be based on the Screen Rate (or if the Screen Rate is not available for such one month Interest Period, the Interpolated Screen Rate) at approximately 11:00 A.M., London time, on such day. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the Eurodollar Base Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the Eurodollar Base Rate, respectively. If the Alternate Base Rate is being used as an alternate rate of interest pursuant to subsection 2.10 (for the avoidance of doubt, only until the Benchmark Replacement has been determined pursuant to subsection 2.10(b)), then the Alternate Base Rate shall be the greater of clauses (a) and (b) above and shall be determined without reference to clause (c) above. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Alternate Base Rate as determined pursuant to the foregoing would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement.

“Alternate Base Rate Loans”: Revolving Credit Loans hereunder at such time as they are made and/or being maintained at a rate of interest based upon the Alternate Base Rate.

“Ancillary Document”: as defined in subsection 10.8.

“Anti-Corruption Laws”: all laws, rules and regulations of any jurisdiction applicable to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from time to time concerning or relating to bribery or corruption.

“Applicable LIBOR Auction Advance Rate”: in respect of any CAF Loan requested pursuant to a LIBOR Auction Advance Request, the London interbank offered rate for deposits in Dollars for the period commencing on the date of such CAF Loan and ending on the maturity date thereof which appears on pages LIBOR01 or LIBOR02 of the Reuters screen that displays such rate (or, in the event such rate does not appear on a Reuters page or screen, on any successor or substitute page on such screen that displays such rate, or on the appropriate page of such other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Agent in its reasonable discretion) as of 11:00 A.M., London time, two Working Days prior to the beginning of such period.

“Applicable Margin”: for each Type of Loan other than CAF Loans, the rate per annum applicable to such Type determined in accordance with the Pricing Grid.

“Applicable Parties”: as defined in subsection 9.14(c).

“Approved Electronic Platform”: as defined in subsection 9.14(a).

“Approved Fund”: any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Bank, (b) an Affiliate of a Bank or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Bank.

“ASC”: as defined in subsection 1.2(b).

“Assignment and Assumption”: an Assignment and Assumption, substantially in the form of Exhibit G.

“Available Commitments”: as to any Bank at a particular time, an amount equal to the difference between (a) the amount of the Commitments at such time and (b) the Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit at such time.

“Bail-In Action”: the exercise of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority in respect of any liability of an Affected Financial Institution.

“Bail-In Legislation”: (a) with respect to any EEA Member Country implementing Article 55 of Directive 2014/59/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of the European Union, the implementing law, regulation rule or requirement for such EEA Member Country from time to time which is described in the EU Bail-In Legislation Schedule and (b) with respect to the United Kingdom, Part I of the United Kingdom Banking Act 2009 (as amended from time to time) and any other law, regulation or rule applicable in the United Kingdom relating to the resolution of unsound or failing banks, investment firms or other financial institutions or their affiliates (other than through liquidation, administration or other insolvency proceedings).

“Bank Obligations”: as defined in subsection 8.1.

“Bank Parent”: with respect to any Bank, any Person as to which such Bank is, directly or indirectly, a Subsidiary.

“Banks”: as defined in the introductory paragraph to this Agreement.

“Benchmark”: initially, the Eurodollar Base Rate; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the Eurodollar Base Rate or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to clause (b) or clause (c) of subsection 2.10.

“Benchmark Replacement”: for any Available Tenor, the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Agent for the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date; provided that, in the case of an Other Benchmark Rate Election, “Benchmark Replacement” shall mean the alternative set forth in clause (3) below:

(1) the sum of: (a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

(2) the sum of: (a) Daily Simple SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; and

(3) the sum of: (a) the alternate benchmark rate that has been selected by the Agent and the Company as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a replacement benchmark rate or the mechanism for determining such a rate by the Relevant Governmental Body or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a benchmark rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities at such time in the United States and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

provided that, in the case of clause (1), such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Agent in its reasonable discretion; provided further that, in the case of clause (3), when such clause is used to determine the Benchmark Replacement in connection with the occurrence of an Other Benchmark Rate Election, the alternate benchmark rate selected by the Agent and the Company shall be the term benchmark rate that is used in lieu of a LIBOR-based rate in the relevant other Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities; provided further that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event, and the delivery of a Term SOFR Notice, on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date the “Benchmark Replacement” shall revert to and shall be deemed to be the sum of (a) Term SOFR and (b) the related Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, as set forth in clause (1) of this definition (subject to the first proviso above).

If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3) above would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment”: with respect to any replacement of the then-current Benchmark with an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for any applicable Interest Period and Available Tenor for any setting of such Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement:

(1) for purposes of clauses (1) and (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Agent:

(a) the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for the applicable Corresponding Tenor; and

(b) the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) as of the Reference Time such Benchmark Replacement is first set for such Interest Period that would apply to the fallback rate for a derivative transaction referencing the ISDA Definitions to be effective upon an index cessation event with respect to such Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor; and

(2) for purposes of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement,” the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Agent and the Company for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to (i) any selection or recommendation of a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement by the Relevant Governmental Body on the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date and/or (ii) any evolving or then-prevailing market convention for determining a spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of such Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for Dollar-denominated syndicated credit facilities;

provided that, in the case of clause (1) above, such adjustment is displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such Benchmark Replacement Adjustment from time to time as selected by the Agent in its reasonable discretion.

“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes”: with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Alternate Base Rate”, the definition of “Business Day”, the definition of “Interest Period”, timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions, and other technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Agent decides in its reasonable discretion may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement and to permit the administration thereof by the Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Agent decides is reasonably necessary in connection with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents).

“Benchmark Replacement Date”: with respect to any Benchmark, the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to such then-current Benchmark:

(1) in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof);

(2) in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the first date on which such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) has been determined and announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) to be no longer representative; provided that such non-representativeness will be determined by reference to the most recent statement or publication referenced in such clause (3) and even if any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) continues to be provided on such date;

(3) in the case of a Term SOFR Transition Event, the date that is 30 days after the date a Term SOFR Notice is provided to the Banks and the Company pursuant to subsection 2.10(c); or

(4) in the case of an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, the sixth Business Day after the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election or Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, is provided to the Banks, so long as the Agent has not received, by 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day after the date notice of such Early Opt-in Election or Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, is provided to the Banks, written notice of objection to such Early Opt-in Election or Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, from Banks comprising the Required Banks.

For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Transition Event”: with respect to any Benchmark, the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to such then-current Benchmark:

(1) a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof), permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof);

(2) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof), the Board, the NYFRB, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for such Benchmark (or such component), in each case, which states that the administrator of such Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely; provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or

(3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no longer, or as of a specified future date will no longer be, representative.

For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Unavailability Period”: with respect to any Benchmark, the period (if any) (x) beginning at the time that a Benchmark Replacement Date pursuant to clauses (1) or (2) of the definition thereof has occurred if, at such time, no Benchmark Replacement has replaced such then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in accordance with subsection 2.10 and (y) ending at the time that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in accordance with subsection 2.10.

amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Agent notifies the Company that the Required Banks request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then the Agent, the Banks and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to amend such provision to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP, and such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith; provided further that all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to (i) any election under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 000-00-00 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of the Company or any Subsidiary at “fair value”, as defined therein and (ii) any treatment of Indebtedness in respect of convertible debt instruments under ASC 470-20 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any such Indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof).

1.3 Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Regulators have signaled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of these interest rate benchmarks and, as a result, such interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable laws and regulations, may be permanently discontinued, and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change. The London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) publicly announced that immediately after December 31, 2021, publication of the 1-week and 2-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; immediately after June 30, 2023, publication of the overnight and 12-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; and immediately after June 30, 2023, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to the FCA’s consideration of the case, be provided on a synthetic basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored. There is no assurance that dates announced by the FCA will not change or that the administrator of LIBOR and/or regulators will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition, or characteristics of LIBOR or the currencies and/or tenors for which LIBOR is published. Each party to this agreement should consult with its own advisors to stay informed of any such developments.

Public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of LIBOR. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, subsections 2.10(b) and (c) provide a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Agent will promptly notify the Company, pursuant to subsection 2.10(e), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. However, the Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to LIBOR or other rates in the definition of “Eurodollar Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to subsection 2.10(b) or (c), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to subsection 2.10(d), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the Eurodollar Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did LIBOR prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Company. The Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the Benchmark, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Company, any Bank or any other Person for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

1.4 Divisions. For all purposes under this Agreement, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its equity interests at such time.

SECTION 2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF LOANS

2.1 Revolving Credit Loans.

During the Commitment Period the Company may use the Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance

with the terms and conditions hereof. The Revolving Credit Loans may be (i) Eurodollar Loans, (ii) Alternate Base Rate Loans or (iii) a combination thereof, as determined by the Company and notified to the Agent in accordance with subsection 2.1(b). Eurodollar Loans shall be made and maintained by each Bank at its Eurodollar Lending Office, and Alternate Base Rate Loans shall be made and maintained by each Bank at its Domestic Lending Office.

(b) The Company may borrow under the Commitments during the Commitment Period on any Working Day if the borrowing is of Eurodollar Loans or on any Business Day if the borrowing is of Alternate Base Rate Loans; provided that the Company shall give the Agent irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Agent (i) prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, three Working Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, and (ii) prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Alternate Base Rate Loans), specifying (A) the amount to be borrowed, (B) the requested Borrowing Date, (C) whether the borrowing is to be of Eurodollar Loans, Alternate Base Rate Loans, or a combination thereof, and (D) if the borrowing is to be entirely or partly of Eurodollar Loans, the length of the Interest Period therefor. Each borrowing pursuant to the Commitments shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (i) $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (ii) the then aggregate Available Commitments for all Banks. Upon receipt of such notice from the Company, the Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof. Each Bank will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing available to the Agent for the account of the Company at the office of the Agent set forth in subsection 10.2 prior to 2:00 P.M. (or in the case of a same day borrowing of Alternate Base Rate Loans, 3:00 P.M.), New York City time, on the Borrowing Date requested by the Company in funds immediately available to the Agent. The proceeds of all such Revolving Credit Loans will then be promptly made available to the Company by the Agent at such office of the Agent by crediting the account of the Company on the books of such office with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Agent by the Banks.

2.2 CAF Loans.

(a) The Company may borrow CAF Loans in Dollars from time to time on any Business Day (in the case of CAF Loans made pursuant to a Fixed Rate Auction Advance Request) or any Working Day (in the case of CAF Loans made pursuant to a LIBOR Auction Advance Request) during the period from the Closing Date until the date occurring 14 days prior to the Termination Date in the manner set forth in this subsection 2.2 and in amounts such that the Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit of all Banks at any time shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the Commitments for all Banks at such time.

Each CAF Loan Request may solicit bids for CAF Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and for not more than three alternative maturity dates for such CAF Loans. The maturity date for each CAF Loan (x) if made pursuant to a Fixed Rate Auction Advance Request, shall be not less than 7 days nor more than 360 days after the Borrowing Date therefor (and in any event not after the Termination Date) and (y) if made pursuant to a LIBOR Auction Advance Request, shall be one, two, three, six, nine or twelve months after the Borrowing Date therefor (and in any event not after the Termination Date). The CAF Loan Agent shall promptly notify each CAF Loan Bank in writing of the contents of each CAF Loan Request received by it.

(c) In the case of a LIBOR Auction Advance Request, upon receipt of notice from the CAF Loan Agent of the contents of such CAF Loan Request, any CAF Loan Bank that elects, in its sole discretion, to do so, shall irrevocably offer to make one or more CAF Loans at the Applicable LIBOR Auction Advance Rate plus or minus a margin for each such CAF Loan determined by such CAF Loan Bank in its sole discretion. Any such irrevocable offer shall be made by delivering a CAF Loan Offer to the CAF Loan Agent, prior to 9:30 A.M., New York City time, three Working Days before the proposed Borrowing Date, setting forth the maximum amount of CAF Loans for each maturity date, and the aggregate maximum amount for all maturity dates, which such CAF Loan Bank would be willing to make (which amounts may, subject to subsection 2.2(a), exceed such CAF Loan Bank’s Commitment) and the margin above or below the Applicable LIBOR Auction Advance Rate at which such CAF Loan Bank is willing to make each such CAF Loan; the CAF Loan Agent shall advise the Company prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, three Working Days before the proposed Borrowing Date of the contents of each such CAF Loan Offer received by it. If the CAF Loan Agent or any Affiliate thereof in its capacity as a CAF Loan Bank shall, in its sole discretion, elect to make any such offer, it shall advise the Company of the contents of its CAF Loan Offer prior to 9:00 A.M., New York City time, three Working Days before the proposed Borrowing Date.

(d) In the case of a Fixed Rate Auction Advance Request, upon receipt of notice from the CAF Loan Agent of the contents of such CAF Loan Request, any CAF Loan Bank that elects, in its sole discretion, to do so, shall irrevocably offer to make one or more CAF Loans at a rate or rates of interest for each such CAF Loan determined by such CAF Loan Bank in its sole discretion. Any such irrevocable offer shall be made by delivering a CAF Loan Offer to the CAF Loan Agent, prior to 9:30 A.M., New York City time, on the proposed Borrowing Date, setting forth the maximum amount of CAF Loans for each maturity date, and the aggregate maximum amount for all maturity dates, which such CAF Loan Bank would be willing to make (which amounts may, subject to subsection 2.2(a), exceed such CAF Loan Bank’s Commitment) and the rate or rates of interest at which such CAF Loan Bank is willing to make each such CAF Loan; the CAF Loan Agent shall advise the Company prior to 10:15 A.M., New York City time, on the proposed Borrowing Date of the contents of each such CAF Loan Offer received by it. If the CAF Loan Agent or any Affiliate thereof in its capacity as a CAF Loan Bank shall, in its sole discretion, elect to make any such offer, it shall advise the Company of the contents of its CAF Loan Offer prior to 9:15 A.M., New York City time, on the proposed Borrowing Date.

(e) The Company shall prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, three Working Days before the proposed Borrowing Date (in the case of CAF Loans requested by a LIBOR Auction Advance Request) and prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the proposed Borrowing Date (in the case of CAF Loans requested by a Fixed Rate Auction Advance Request) either, in its absolute discretion:

(i) cancel such CAF Loan Request by giving the CAF Loan Agent telephone notice to that effect, or

(ii) accept one or more of the offers made by any CAF Loan Bank or CAF Loan Banks pursuant to clause (c) or clause (d) above, as the case may be, by giving telephone notice to the CAF Loan Agent (immediately confirmed by delivery to the CAF Loan Agent of a CAF Loan Confirmation) of the amount of CAF Loans for each relevant maturity date to be made by each CAF Loan Bank (which amount for each such maturity date shall be equal to or less than the maximum amount for such maturity date specified in the CAF Loan Offer of such CAF Loan Bank, and for all maturity dates included in such CAF Loan Offer shall be equal to or less than the aggregate maximum amount specified in such CAF Loan Offer for all such maturity dates) and reject any remaining offers made by CAF Loan Banks pursuant to clause (c) or clause (d) above, as the case may be; provided, however, that (x) the Company may not accept offers for CAF Loans for any maturity date in an aggregate principal amount in excess of the maximum principal amount requested in the related CAF Loan Request, (y) if the Company accepts any of such offers, it must accept offers strictly based upon pricing for such relevant maturity date and no other criteria whatsoever and (z) if two or more CAF Loan Banks submit offers for any maturity date at identical pricing and the Company accepts any of such offers but does not wish to borrow the total amount offered by such CAF Loan Banks with such identical pricing, the Company shall accept offers from all of such CAF Loan Banks in amounts allocated among them pro rata according to the amounts offered by such CAF Loan Banks, or as nearly pro rata as shall be practicable after giving effect to the requirement that CAF Loans made by a CAF Loan Bank on a Borrowing Date for each relevant maturity date shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; provided further that if the number of CAF Loan Banks that submit offers for any maturity date at identical pricing is such that, after the Company accepts such offers pro rata in accordance with the foregoing, the CAF Loans to be made by each such CAF Loan Bank would be less than $5,000,000 principal amount, the number of such CAF Loan Banks shall be reduced by the CAF Loan Agent by lot until the CAF Loans to be made by each such remaining CAF Loan Bank would be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

The Company hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans from time to time outstanding from the date hereof until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in subsection 2.8.

(b) Each Bank shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Company to such Bank resulting from each Loan of such Bank from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Bank from time to time under this Agreement.

(c) The Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to subsection 10.6(e), and a subaccount therein for each Bank, in which shall be recorded (i) (A) the amount of each Revolving Credit Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and each Interest Period applicable thereto and (B) the amount of each CAF Loan made by such Bank, the maturity date therefor as set forth in the CAF Loan Request for such CAF Loan, the interest rate applicable thereto and each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Company to each Bank hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder from the Company and each Bank’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Bank maintained pursuant to subsection 2.3(b) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, absent manifest error, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Company therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Bank or the Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Company to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Company by such Bank in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) The Company agrees that, upon the request to the Agent by any Bank, the Company will execute and deliver to such Bank (i) a promissory note of the Company evidencing the Revolving Credit Loans of such Bank, substantially in the form of Exhibit A with appropriate insertions as to payee, date and principal amount (a “Revolving Credit Note”), (ii) a promissory note of the Company evidencing the initial CAF Loan or Loans of such Bank, substantially in the form of Exhibit B with appropriate insertions (a “Grid CAF Loan Note”), and/or (iii) a promissory note of the Company evidencing amounts advanced by such Bank

pursuant to subsection 2.2 which have the same maturity date and interest rate as amounts advanced by such Bank evidenced by a Grid CAF Loan Note and which such Bank wishes to constitute more than one CAF Loan (which principal amounts shall not be less than $5,000,000 for any such CAF Loans), substantially in the form of Exhibit C with appropriate insertions (an “Individual CAF Loan Note”). Upon a Bank’s receipt of an Individual CAF Loan Note evidencing a CAF Loan, such Bank shall endorse on the schedule attached to its Grid CAF Loan Note the transfer of such CAF Loan from such Grid CAF Loan Note to such Individual CAF Loan Note.

2.4 Fees.

(a) The Company agrees to pay to the Agent, for the account of each Bank, on the last day of each fiscal quarter and on the Termination Date, a facility fee in respect of the average daily amount of the Commitment of such Bank (and, following the termination of the Commitment of such Bank, on the sum of the Loans of such Bank) during such fiscal quarter. Such fee shall be computed at the applicable rate per annum set forth in the Pricing Grid.

(b) The Company agrees to pay to each of the Agent and the Primary Lead Arrangers (and as applicable their Affiliates) the other fees in the amounts, and on the dates, agreed to by the Company and the Primary Lead Arrangers (and as applicable their Affiliates). The Agent will distribute to the Banks their respective portions of upfront fees paid by the Company to the Agent, as agreed between the Agent and each Bank.

2.5 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Company shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Agent, to terminate the Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce ratably the amount of the Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans made on the effective date thereof, the then outstanding principal amount of the Loans would exceed the amount of the Commitments then in effect. Any such reduction shall be in an amount of the lesser of (x) $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (y) the aggregate amount of Commitments then outstanding, and shall reduce permanently the amount of the Commitments then in effect.

2.6 Optional Prepayments. The Company may at any time and from time to time, prepay the Revolving Credit Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (subject to the provisions of subsection 2.16), upon at least three Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the Agent in the case of Eurodollar Loans and one Business Day’s irrevocable notice to the Agent in the case of Alternate Base Rate Loans, specifying the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or Alternate Base Rate Loans or a combination thereof, and if of a combination thereof, the amount of prepayment allocable to each. Upon receipt of such notice the Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof. If such notice is given, the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate principal amount of the lesser of (x) $5,000,000, or a whole multiple thereof, and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Loans then outstanding, and may only be made if, after giving effect thereto, subsection 2.7(c) shall not have been contravened.

2.7 Conversion Options; Minimum Amount of Loans.

(a) The Company may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to Alternate Base Rate Loans by giving the Agent at least two Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election (given before 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on the date on which such notice is required); provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans shall only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Company may elect from time to time to convert Alternate Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Agent at least three Working Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election (given before 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date on which such notice is required). Upon receipt of such notice, the Agent shall promptly notify each Bank thereof. Promptly following the date on which such conversion is being made each Bank shall take such action as is necessary to transfer its portion of such Revolving Credit Loans to its Domestic Lending Office or its Eurodollar Lending Office, as the case may be. All or any part of outstanding Eurodollar Loans and Alternate Base Rate Loans may be converted as provided herein; provided that, unless the Required Banks otherwise agree, (i) no Revolving Credit Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) partial conversions shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof and (iii) any such conversion may only be made if, after giving effect thereto, subsection 2.7(c) shall not have been contravened.

(b) Any Eurodollar Loans may be continued as such upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect thereto by compliance by the Company with the notice provisions contained in subsection 2.7(a); provided that, unless the Required Banks otherwise agree, no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to an Alternate Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto. The Agent shall notify the Banks promptly that such automatic conversion contemplated by this subsection 2.7(b) will occur.

(c) All borrowings, conversions, payments, prepayments and selection of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Loans comprising any Eurodollar Tranche shall not be less than $10,000,000. At no time shall there be more than fifteen Eurodollar Tranches.

2.8 Interest Rate and Payment Dates for Loans.

(a) The Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto on the unpaid principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Alternate Base Rate Loans shall bear interest for each day from and including the Borrowing Date thereof on the unpaid principal amount thereof at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) CAF Loans shall bear interest from the Borrowing Date to the maturity date therefor as set forth in the CAF Loan Request for such CAF Loan on the unpaid principal amount thereof at the rate of interest determined pursuant to subsection 2.2(b).

(d) If all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loans, (ii) any interest payable thereon or (iii) any fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is 2% above the Alternate Base Rate from the date of such non-payment until paid in full (after as well as before judgment). If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loans shall not be paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), each Eurodollar Loan shall, unless the Required Banks otherwise agree, be converted to an Alternate Base Rate Loan at the end of the last Interest Period with respect thereto.

(e) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.

2.9 Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) Interest in respect of Alternate Base Rate Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a (i) 365-day (or 366-day, as the case may be) year for the actual days elapsed when such Alternate Base Rate Loans are based on the Prime Rate and (ii) a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed when based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Effective Rate (or NYFRB Rate). Interest in respect of Eurodollar Loans and CAF Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed. The Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Company and the Banks of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Revolving Credit Loan resulting from a change in the Alternate Base Rate or the Applicable Margin or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the Alternate Base Rate is announced, such Applicable Margin changes as provided herein or such change in the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective, as the case may be. The Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Company and the Banks of the effective date and the amount of each such change.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Banks in the absence of manifest error. The Agent shall, at the request of the Company, deliver to the Company a statement showing the quotations used by the Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to subsection 2.8.

2.10 Inability to Determine Interest Rate.

(a) Subject to clauses (b) through (g) of this subsection 2.10, in the event that:

(i) the Agent shall have determined in its reasonable judgment (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate (including because the Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis) for any requested Interest Period; or

(ii) the Agent shall have received notice prior to the first day of such Interest Period from Banks constituting the Required Banks that the interest rate determined pursuant to subsection 2.8(a) for such Interest Period does not accurately reflect the cost to such Banks (as conclusively certified by such Banks) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period;

with respect to (A) proposed Revolving Credit Loans that the Company has requested be made as Eurodollar Loans, (B) Eurodollar Loans that will result from the requested conversion of Alternate Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Loans or (C) the continuation of Eurodollar Loans beyond the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Agent shall forthwith give facsimile or telephonic notice of such determination to the Company and the Banks at least one day prior to, as the case may be, the requested Borrowing Date for such Eurodollar Loans, the conversion date of such Loans or the last day of such Interest Period. If such notice is given (x) any requested Eurodollar Loans shall be made as Alternate Base Rate Loans, (y) any Alternate Base Rate Loans that were to have been converted to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as Alternate Base Rate Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, to Alternate Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made, nor shall the Company have the right to convert Alternate Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans. The Agent shall withdraw such notice upon its determination that the event or events which gave rise to such notice no longer exist.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any other Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any other Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Banks without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Banks comprising the Required Banks.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, with respect to a Loan denominated in Dollars, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any other Loan Document in respect of

such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that this clause (c) shall not be effective unless the Agent has delivered to the Banks and the Company a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion.

(d) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(e) The Agent will promptly notify the Company and the Banks of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent or, if applicable, any Bank (or group of Banks) pursuant to this subsection 2.10, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this subsection 2.10.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or the Eurodollar Base Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(g) Upon the Company’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Company may revoke any request for a borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Company will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Alternate Base Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate. Furthermore, if any Loan is outstanding on the date of the Company’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to this subsection 2.10, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Agent to, and shall constitute, an Alternate Base Rate Loan on such day.

2.11 Pro Rata Borrowings and Payments.

(a) Each borrowing by the Company of Revolving Credit Loans shall be made ratably from the Banks in accordance with their Commitment Percentages.

(b) Whenever any payment received by the Agent under this Agreement is insufficient to pay in full all amounts then due and payable to the Agent and the Banks under this Agreement, and the Agent has not received a Payment Sharing Notice (or if the Agent has received a Payment Sharing Notice but the Event of Default specified in such Payment Sharing Notice has been cured or waived), such payment shall be distributed and applied by the Agent and the Banks in the following order: first, to the payment of fees and expenses due and payable to the Agent under and in connection with this Agreement; second, to the payment of all expenses due and payable under subsection 10.5(b), ratably among the Banks in accordance with the aggregate amount of such payments owed to each such Bank; third, to the payment of fees due and payable under clause (a) of subsection 2.4, ratably among the Banks in accordance with their Commitment Percentages; fourth, to the payment of interest then due and payable on the Loans, ratably among the Banks in accordance with the aggregate amount of interest owed to each such Bank; and fifth, to the payment of the principal amount of the Loans which is then due and payable, ratably among the Banks in accordance with the aggregate principal amount owed to each such Bank.

(c) After the Agent has received a Payment Sharing Notice which remains in effect, all payments received by the Agent under this Agreement shall be distributed and applied by the Agent and the Banks in the following order: first, to the payment of all amounts described in clauses first through third of the foregoing paragraph (b), in the order set forth therein; and second, to the payment of the interest accrued on and the principal amount of all of the Loans, regardless of whether any such amount is then due and payable, ratably among the Banks in accordance with the aggregate accrued interest plus the aggregate principal amount owed to each such Bank.

(d) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Company on account of principal, interest and fees shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made to the Agent, for the account of the Banks, at the Agent’s office set forth in subsection 10.2, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds. The Agent shall distribute such payments to the Banks promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the CAF Loans made pursuant to a LIBOR Auction Advance Request) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business

Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a CAF Loan made pursuant to a LIBOR Auction Advance Request becomes due and payable on a day other than a Working Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Working Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Working Day.

(e) Unless the Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Bank prior to a Borrowing Date that such Bank will not make the amount which would constitute its Commitment Percentage of the borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans on such date available to the Agent, the Agent may assume that such Bank has made such amount available to the Agent on such Borrowing Date, and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company a corresponding amount. If such amount is made available to the Agent on a date after such Borrowing Date, such Bank shall pay to the Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during such period as quoted by the Agent, times (ii) the amount of such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of such borrowing, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including such Borrowing Date to the date on which such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of such borrowing shall have become immediately available to the Agent and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Agent submitted to any Bank with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection 2.11(e) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such Bank’s Commitment Percentage of such borrowing is not in fact made available to the Agent by such Bank within three Business Days of such Borrowing Date, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Alternate Base Rate Loans hereunder, on demand, from the Company.

(f) If, and for so long as, any Bank shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to subsection 2.11(e) or 9.7, then the Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, apply any amounts thereafter received by the Agent for the account of such Bank for the benefit of the Agent to satisfy such Bank’s obligations to it under such subsection until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

2.12 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if after the date hereof the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Bank to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the Bank shall, within 30 Working Days after it becomes aware of such fact, notify the Company, through the Agent, of such fact, (b) the commitment of such Bank hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans or convert Alternate Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be cancelled and (c) such Bank’s Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Alternate Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods for such Revolving Credit Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. Each Bank shall take such action as may be reasonably available to it without material legal or financial disadvantage (including changing its Eurodollar Lending Office) to prevent the adoption of or any change in any such Requirement of Law from becoming applicable to it.

2.13 Requirements of Law. If after the date hereof the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law (including any rules or regulations issued under or implementing any existing law) or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Bank with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) after the date hereof from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:

(a) shall subject any Bank to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Eurodollar Loans made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Bank of principal, facility fee, interest or any other amount payable hereunder in respect of Loans (except for Taxes covered by subsection 2.15 and taxes described in clauses (i) through (iv) of subsection 2.15(a));

(b) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Bank which are not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate hereunder; or

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Bank, by any amount which such Bank reasonably deems to be material, of making, renewing or maintaining advances or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder, in each case, in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Company shall after submission by such Bank, through the Agent, to the Company of a written request therefor (such request, which shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties in the absence of manifest error, shall include details reasonably sufficient to establish the basis for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable and shall be submitted to the Company within 30 Business Days after it becomes aware of such fact), the Company shall, within 30 days of such written request, pay such Bank for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything contained in this subsection 2.13 to the contrary, such Bank shall not be entitled to receive any amounts pursuant to this subsection 2.13 that it is also entitled to pursuant to subsection 2.15(a). If a Bank becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection 2.13, it shall, within 30 Business Days after it becomes aware of such fact, notify the Company, through the Agent, of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by such Bank, through the Agent, to the Company shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error. Each Bank shall take such action as may be reasonably available to it without legal or financial disadvantage (including changing its Eurodollar Lending Office) to prevent any such Requirement of Law or change from becoming applicable to it. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.14 Capital Adequacy.

(a) If any Bank shall have determined that after the date hereof the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law (including any rules or regulations issued under or implementing any existing law) regarding capital adequacy or liquidity or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank with any request or directive after the date hereof regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or

not having the force of law) from any central bank or Governmental Authority, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount which is reasonably deemed by such Bank to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Bank, through the Agent, to the Company of a written request therefor (such request, which shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties in the absence of manifest error, shall include details reasonably sufficient to establish the basis for such additional amounts payable and shall be submitted to the Company within 30 Working Days after it becomes aware of such fact), the Company shall, within 15 Business Days of such written request, pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such reduction. The agreements in this subsection 2.14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (i) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or by United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, and (ii) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in a Requirement of Law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented.

2.15 Taxes.

(a) All payments made by or on behalf of the Company under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without reduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, including any interest, addition to tax or penalties applicable thereto, excluding, in the case of the Agent and each Bank, (i) taxes imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) and franchise taxes and branch profits taxes, in each case, imposed on the Agent or such Bank by the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Agent or such Bank (as the case may be) is organized or where its principal office is located, in each case, any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, or by any jurisdiction in which such Bank’s Domestic Lending Office or Eurodollar Lending Office, as the case may be, is located or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, or that are Other Connection Taxes, (ii) in the case of a Bank, U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of such Bank with respect to an applicable interest in a Loan or Commitment pursuant to a law in effect on the date on which (A) such Bank acquires such interest in the Loan or Commitment (other than pursuant to an assignment request by the Company under subsection 2.18(c)) or (B) such Bank changes its lending office, except in each case to the extent that, pursuant to subsection 2.15, amounts with respect to such taxes were payable either to such Bank’s assignor immediately before such Bank became a party hereto or to such Bank immediately before it changed its lending office (iii) taxes attributable to a failure by a Bank to comply with the form delivery and notice requirements of subsection 2.15(c) below and (iv) any withholding taxes imposed under FATCA (all such non-excluded taxes, levies,

imposts, duties, deductions, withholdings (including backup withholding), assessments, fees or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority, including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto being hereinafter called “Taxes”). If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Agent or any Bank hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (x) such amounts shall be paid to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (y) the amounts so payable to the Agent or such Bank shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Agent or such Bank (after payment of all Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement and the Notes as if such withholding or deduction had not been made. Whenever any Taxes are payable by the Company, as promptly as possible thereafter, the Company shall send to the Agent for its own account or for the account of such Bank, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt that is received by the Company showing payment thereof (or, if no official receipt is received by the Company, a statement of the Company indicating payment thereof). If the Company fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Company shall indemnify the Agent and the Banks for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Agent or any Bank as a result of any such failure.

(b) The Company shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Any Bank 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 Company and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Bank, if reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Agent as will enable the Company or the Agent to determine whether or not such Bank 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 subsections 2.15(c)(i), (ii) and (iv) below) shall not be required if in the Bank’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(i) any Bank that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Company and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Bank becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Bank is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(ii) any Bank that is not a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Bank”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Bank becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) in the case of a Non-U.S. Bank claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(B) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(C) in the case of a Non-U.S. Bank 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 K-1 to the effect that such Non-U.S. Bank is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Company described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

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

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

(iv) If a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Bank 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 Bank shall deliver to the Company and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the 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 Company or the Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Bank has complied with such Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this subsection 2.15(c), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Bank 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 Company and the Agent of its legal inability to do so.

(d) Each Bank shall indemnify the Agent for the full amount of any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings or similar charges imposed by any Governmental Authority that are attributable to such Bank and that are payable or paid by the Agent, together with all interest, penalties, reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Agent in good faith (but only to the extent that the Company has not already indemnified the Agent and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Bank by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this subsection 2.15 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this subsection 2.15), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this subsection 2.15 with respect to the taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (e) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (e), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (e) 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. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(f) The agreements in subsection 2.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.16 Indemnity. The Company agrees to indemnify each Bank and to hold each Bank harmless from any loss or expense (other than any loss of anticipated margin or profit) which such Bank may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) failure by the Company to make a borrowing or conversion after the Company has given a notice of borrowing in accordance with subsection 2.1(b) or a notice of continuation or conversion pursuant to subsection 2.7, (b) failure by the Company to make any prepayment after the Company has given a notice in accordance with subsection 2.6 or (c) the making of a prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, including, without limitation, in each case, any such loss or expense arising from the reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its Eurodollar Loans hereunder or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. Any Bank claiming any amount under this subsection 2.16 shall provide calculations, in reasonable detail, of the amount of its loss or expense. This covenant shall survive termination of this Agreement and payment of the outstanding Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.17 Application of Proceeds of Loans. The Company may use the proceeds of the Loans for any lawful general corporate purpose, including acquisitions, and in a manner not inconsistent with subsection 4.12.

2.18 Notice of Certain Circumstances; Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances.

(a) Any Bank claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to subsection 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15 or exercising its rights under subsection 2.12, shall, in accordance with the respective provisions thereof, provide notice to the Company and the Agent. Such notice to the Company and the Agent shall include details reasonably sufficient to establish the basis for such additional amounts payable or the rights to be exercised by the Bank.

(b) Any Bank claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to subsection 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15 or exercising its rights under subsection 2.12, shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document requested by the Company or to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the making of such filing or change would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such additional amounts which may thereafter accrue or avoid the circumstances giving rise to such exercise and would not, in the reasonable determination of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous in any material respect to such Bank.

(c) In the event that (i) the Company shall be required to make any additional payments to any Bank pursuant to subsections 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15 or any Bank shall exercise its rights under subsection 2.12, (ii) any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank or (iii) any Bank does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Banks or each of the Banks affected thereby (so long as the consent of the Required Banks has been obtained), then the Company shall have the right at its own expense, upon notice to such Bank and the Agent, to require such Bank to transfer and to assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the terms of subsection 10.6) all its interest, rights and obligations

under this Agreement to another financial institution (including any Bank) which shall assume such obligations; provided that (x) no such assignment shall conflict with any Requirement of Law, (y) such assuming financial institution shall pay to such Bank in immediately available funds on the date of such assignment the outstanding principal amount of such Bank’s Loans together with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts accrued for its account or owed to it hereunder, including, but not limited to additional amounts payable under subsections 2.4, 2.12, 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 and (z) the Company shall be liable to such replaced Bank under subsection 2.16 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Bank shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto.

2.19 [Reserved].

2.20 Defaulting Banks. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Bank pursuant to subsection 2.4(a);

(b) the Commitment and Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit of such Defaulting Bank shall not be included in determining whether all Banks, all affected Banks or the Required Banks have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to subsection 10.1); provided that (i) such Defaulting Bank’s Commitment may not be increased or extended without its consent and (ii) the principal amount of, or interest or fees payable on, Loans may not be reduced or excused or the scheduled date of payment may not be postponed as to such Defaulting Bank without such Defaulting Bank’s consent; and

(c) in the event that the Agent and the Company each agrees that a Defaulting Bank has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Bank to be a Defaulting Bank, then on such date such Bank shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Banks (other than CAF Loans) as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Bank 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 Company while such Bank was a Defaulting Bank.

2.21 Increase of Commitments.

(a) The Company and any one or more Banks (including New Banks) may, at any time when no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, agree that such Banks shall make, obtain or increase the amount of their Commitments by executing and delivering to the Agent an Increased Commitment Notice specifying (i) the amount of such increase and (ii) the applicable Increased Commitment Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) without the consent of the Required Banks, the aggregate amount of increased Commitments obtained after the Closing Date pursuant to this paragraph, together with any increase of commitments under the 5-Year Revolving Facility (or any facility that replaces or refinances the 5-Year Revolving Facility), shall not exceed $750,000,000 and (ii) without the consent of the Agent, each increase effected pursuant to this paragraph shall be in a minimum amount of at least $10,000,000. No Bank shall have any obligation to participate in any increase described in this paragraph unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion.

(b) Any additional bank, financial institution or other entity which, with the consent of the Company and the Agent (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), elects to become a “Bank” under this Agreement in connection with any transaction described in subsection 2.21(a) shall execute a New Bank supplement, substantially in the form of Exhibit J-1, whereupon such bank, financial institution or other entity (a “New Bank”) shall become a Bank for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.

(c) Initial Loans made under any such increased Commitments shall be made pursuant to funding procedures then agreed to by the Company and the Agent (including as to the initial interest applicable to such Loans), and payments of principal, interest and fees under this Agreement shall be made by the Company to give effect to such procedures and the timing of such increased Commitments. Payments to the Banks in respect of the Loans will be made to give effect to the allocations or reallocations described in this subsection.

2.22 Extension of Termination Date.

(a) The Company may, by delivering a request to extend the Termination Date (an “Extension Request”) to the Agent (who shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Banks), not more than 45 days and not less than 30 days in advance of the Termination Date in effect at such time (the “Existing Termination Date”), request that the Banks extend the Existing Termination Date to the date that is 364 days after such Existing Termination Date. Each Bank, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by written notice to the Agent given not later than the date that is the 15^th day after the date of the Extension Request, or if such date is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day (the “Response Date”), advise the Agent in writing whether or not such Bank agrees to the requested extension. Each Bank that advises the Agent that it will not extend the Existing Termination Date is referred to herein as a “Non-extending Bank”; provided that any Bank that does not advise the Agent of its consent to such requested extension by the Response Date and any Bank that is a Defaulting Bank on the Response Date shall be deemed to be a Non-extending Bank. The Agent shall notify the Company, in writing, of the Banks’ elections promptly following the Response Date. The election of any Bank to agree to such an extension shall not obligate any other Bank to so agree. The Termination Date may be extended no more than four times pursuant to this subsection 2.22.

(b) If, by the Response Date, Banks holding Commitments that aggregate 50% or more of the total Commitments shall constitute Non-extending Banks, then the Existing Termination Date shall not be extended and the outstanding principal balance of all Loans and other amounts payable hereunder shall be payable, and the Commitments shall terminate, on the Existing Termination Date in effect prior to such extension.

(c) If (and only if), by the Response Date, Banks holding Commitments that aggregate more than 50% of the total Commitments shall have agreed to extend the Existing Termination Date (each such consenting Bank, an “Extending Bank”), then effective as of the Existing Termination Date, the Termination Date for such Extending Banks shall be extended to the date that is 364 days after the Existing Termination Date (subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in subsection 2.22(e)). In the event of such extension, the Commitment of

each Non-extending Bank shall terminate on the Existing Termination Date in effect for such Non-extending Bank prior to such extension and the outstanding principal balance of all Loans and other amounts payable hereunder to such Non-extending Bank shall become due and payable on such Existing Termination Date and, subject to subsection 2.22(d), the total Commitments hereunder shall be reduced by the Commitments of the Non-extending Banks so terminated on such Existing Termination Date.

(d) In the event of any extension of the Existing Termination Date pursuant to subsection 2.22(c), the Company shall have the right on or before the Existing Termination Date, at its own expense, to require any Non-extending Bank to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in subsection 10.6) all its interests, rights (other than its rights to payments pursuant to subsection 2.13, subsection 2.14, subsection 2.15 or subsection 10.5 arising prior to the effectiveness of such assignment) and obligations under this Agreement to one or more banks or other financial institutions identified to the Non-extending Bank by the Company, which may include any existing Banks (each a “Replacement Bank”); provided that (i) such Replacement Bank, if not already a Bank hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Agent (such approval to not be unreasonably withheld) to the extent the consent of the Agent would be required to effect an assignment under subsection 10.6(d), (ii) such assignment shall become effective as of a date specified by the Company (which shall not be later than the Existing Termination Date) and (iii) such Replacement Bank shall pay to such Non-extending Bank in immediately available funds on the effective date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the outstanding principal amount Loans made by it hereunder and all other amounts accrued and unpaid for its account or otherwise owed to it hereunder on such date.

(e) As a condition precedent to each such extension of the Existing Termination Date pursuant to subsection 2.22(c), the Company shall deliver to the Agent a certificate of the Company dated as of the effective date of such extension signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company certifying that, as of such date, both before and immediately after giving effect to such extension, (A) the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (and in all respects if already qualified by materiality), except to the extent any such representations or warranties are limited to a specific date, in which case, such representations and warranties are accurate in all material respects as of such specific date, and (B) no Default exists.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, no consent of any Bank (other than the Extending Banks) shall be required for any extension of the Termination Date pursuant to this subsection 2.22 and the operation of this subsection 2.22 in accordance with its terms is not an amendment subject to subsection 10.1 (it being agreed the Agent and the Company, without the consent of any other Person, may make such modifications to the Loan Documents as the Agent and the Company reasonably determine to effect the provisions set forth in this subsection 2.22).

(b) Each Bank hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Bank agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Bank shall promptly notify the Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(c) The Company hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Bank that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Bank with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any obligations under this Agreement owed by the Company, except, in each case, to the extent such erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Agent from the Company for the purpose of making a payment hereunder and is not otherwise repaid or returned to the Company by the Agent, a Bank or any of their respective Affiliates whether pursuant to a legal proceeding or otherwise.

(d) Each party’s obligations under this subsection 9.13 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Bank, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under the Loan Documents.

9.14 Posting of Communications.

(a) The Company agrees that the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Banks by posting the Communications on IntraLinks^™, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

(b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Agent from time to time (including, as of the Closing Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Banks and the Company acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Bank that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Banks and the Company hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

(c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AGENT, ANY PRIMARY LEAD ARRANGER, ANY DOCUMENTATION AGENT, ANY SYNDICATION

AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES OR THE RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS AND ADVISORS OF SUCH PERSON AND SUCH PERSON’S AFFILIATES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE COMPANY, ANY BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THE COMPANY’S OR THE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

(d) Each Bank agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Bank for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Bank agrees (1) to notify the Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Bank’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (2) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

(e) Each of the Banks and the Company agrees that the Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.

(f) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Agent or any Bank to give any notice or other communication pursuant to this Agreement in any other manner specified herein.

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement nor any terms hereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this subsection.

(b) Notices and other communications to the Company and the Banks hereunder may be delivered or furnished by using Approved Electronic Platforms pursuant to procedures approved by the Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Section 2 unless otherwise agreed by the Agent and the applicable Bank. The Agent or the Company may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

(c) Unless the Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement) and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website (including any Approved Electronic Platform) shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.

10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Agent or any Bank, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

10.5 Limitation of Liability; Payment of Expenses and Taxes; Indemnity.

(a) The Company hereby agrees that none of the Agent, any Bank nor any of their respective Affiliates or their respective directors, officers, employees, advisors or agents or any Person, if any, who controls any one of the Agent or the Banks (each, a “Protected Person”) shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to the Company for or in connection with or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent such liability is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Protected Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; provided that nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of any claim the Company may have, or to exculpate any Person from any liability that such Person may have to the Company, for breach by such Person of its obligations under this Agreement. No Protected Person and none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unauthorized persons of information or other materials sent through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems (including any Approved Electronic Platform) that are intercepted by such persons or for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages in connection with this Agreement (it being understood that the foregoing shall not limit the Company’s indemnification obligations set forth in paragraph (c) below).

(b) The Company agrees (i) to pay or reimburse the Agent for all its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and any other documents prepared in connection herewith, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agent, and (ii) to pay or reimburse each Bank and the Agent for all their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement and any such other documents, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of a single firm of counsel to the Agent and to the several Banks and if necessary, one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction and one firm of special counsel in each appropriate specialty (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Person affected by such conflict informs the Company of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of one additional firm of counsel for all such affected Persons, including one such local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction and one special counsel in each appropriate specialty).

(c) The Company will indemnify each of the Agent and the Banks and their respective Affiliates and the directors, officers, employees, advisors and agents thereof and each Person, if any, who controls each one of the Agent and the Banks (any of the foregoing, an “Indemnified Person”) and hold each Indemnified Person harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of a single firm of counsel to all Indemnified Persons and if necessary, one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction and one firm

of special counsel in each appropriate specialty (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnified Person affected by such conflict informs the Company of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of one additional firm of counsel for all such affected Indemnified Persons, including one such local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction and one special counsel in each appropriate specialty) which an Indemnified Person may incur or which may be asserted against it in connection with any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (whether or not such Indemnified Person is a party to such litigation or investigation) involving this Agreement, the use of any proceeds of any Loans under this Agreement by the Company or any Subsidiary or any officer, director or employee thereof, excluding litigation commenced by the Company against any of the Agent or the Banks which (i) seeks enforcement of any of the Company’s rights hereunder and (ii) is determined adversely to any of the Agent or the Banks (all such non-excluded claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that the Company shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. This paragraph (c) shall not apply with respect to taxes other than any taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-tax claim.

(d) The agreements in this subsection 10.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations; Purchasing Banks.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, the Banks, the Agent and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Company may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Bank.

(b) Any Bank other than a Conduit Lender may, in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities other than the Company or a Defaulting Bank or any of their respective Affiliates and Subsidiaries (“Participants”) participating interests in any Loans owing to such Bank, any Commitments of such Bank and/or any other interests of such Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Bank shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Bank shall remain the holder of any Notes for all purposes under this Agreement, and the Company and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents. The Company agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of offset in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Bank under this Agreement; provided that such right of offset shall be subject to the obligation of such Participant to share with the Banks, and the Banks agree to share with such Participant, as provided in subsection 10.7. The Company also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to the limitations of, subsections 2.13,

2.14 and 2.15 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Eurodollar Loans outstanding from time to time; provided that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to such subsections than the transferor Bank would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Bank to such Participant had no such transfer occurred, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater amount results from a change in law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of subsection 2.15 unless such Participant complies with subsection 2.15(c) as if it were a Bank, and no Participant shall be entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of or to this Agreement, unless the same is an amendment, supplement, modification or waiver described in clause (a) of the proviso to subsection 10.1 which requires the consent of the Bank from which it purchased its participation (in which case the participation agreement may provide that such Bank must obtain the participant’s consent before approving any such amendment, supplement, modification or waiver). Each Bank that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, 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, Commitments and/or any other interests of such Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Bank shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Loans, Commitments and/or any other interests of such Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) except to the extent that such disclosure is (i) necessary to establish that such Loan, Commitment or other interest is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or (ii) otherwise required by law or any Governmental Authority. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Bank and the Agent shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement.

(c) Any Bank other than any Conduit Lender may, in accordance with applicable law, at any time assign to one or more banks or other entities (“CAF Loan Assignees”) any CAF Loan owing to such Bank, pursuant to a CAF Loan Assignment executed by the assignor Bank, the CAF Loan Assignee and the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) (and, in the case of a CAF Loan Assignee that is not then a Bank, a Lender Affiliate or an Approved Fund, by the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld)); provided that no consent of the Company shall be required while an Event of Default under subsection 8.1(a) or 8.1(f) is continuing; provided further that the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object within fifteen Business Days after having received written notice thereof. Upon such execution, from and after the date of such CAF Loan Assignment, the CAF Loan Assignee shall, to the extent of the assignment provided for in such CAF Loan Assignment, be deemed to have the same rights and benefits of payment and enforcement with respect to such CAF Loan and the same rights of offset pursuant to subsection 10.7 and under applicable law and obligation to share pursuant to subsection 10.7 as it would have had if it were a Bank hereunder; provided that unless such CAF Loan Assignment shall otherwise specify and a copy of such CAF Loan Assignment shall have been delivered to the Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register in accordance with subsection 10.6(f), the assignor thereunder shall act as collection agent for the CAF Loan Assignee thereunder, and the Agent shall pay all amounts received from the Company which are allocable to the assigned CAF Loan directly to such assignor without any further liability to such

CAF Loan Assignee. A CAF Loan Assignee under a CAF Loan Assignment shall not, by virtue of such CAF Loan Assignment, become a party to this Agreement or have any rights to consent to or refrain from consenting to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of this Agreement or any related document; provided that if a copy of such CAF Loan Assignment shall have been delivered to the Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register in accordance with subsection 10.6(f), neither the principal amount of, the interest rate on, nor the maturity date of any CAF Loan assigned to the CAF Loan Assignee thereunder will be modified without the written consent of such CAF Loan Assignee. If a CAF Loan Assignee has caused a CAF Loan Assignment to be recorded in the Register in accordance with subsection 10.6(f), such CAF Loan Assignee may thereafter, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, assign such CAF Loan to any Bank, to any Affiliate or subsidiary of such CAF Loan Assignee or to any other financial institution that has total assets in excess of $1,000,000,000 and that in the ordinary course of its business extends credit of the type evidenced by such CAF Loan, and the foregoing provisions of this subsection 10.6(c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to any such assignment by a CAF Loan Assignee. Except in accordance with the preceding sentence, CAF Loans may not be further assigned by a CAF Loan Assignee, subject to any legal or regulatory requirement that the CAF Loan Assignee’s assets must remain under its control.

(d) Any Bank other than a Conduit Lender may, in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more additional banks or financial institutions or Approved Funds other than, in each case, to a natural person or to the Company or to a Defaulting Bank or any of their respective Subsidiaries (“Purchasing Banks”) all or any part of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption, executed by such Purchasing Bank, such transferor Bank and the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) (and, in the case of a Purchasing Bank that is not then a Bank, a Lender Affiliate or an Approved Fund, by the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld)); provided, however, that (i) the Commitments purchased by such Purchasing Bank that is not then a Bank, a Lender Affiliate or an Approved Fund shall be equal to or greater than $5,000,000, (ii) the transferor Bank which has transferred less than all of its Loans and Commitments to any such Purchasing Bank shall retain a minimum Commitment, after giving effect to such sale, equal to or greater than $10,000,000, (iii) no consent of the Company shall be required while an Event of Default under subsection 8.1(a) or 8.1(f) is continuing and (iv) the Company shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object within fifteen Business Days after having received written notice thereof. For purposes of the proviso contained in the previous sentence, the amounts described therein shall be aggregated in respect of each Bank, its Lender Affiliates and Approved Funds, if any. Upon (i) such execution of such Assignment and Assumption, (ii) delivery of an executed copy thereof to the Company and (iii) payment by such Purchasing Bank, such Purchasing Bank shall for all purposes be a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement, to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto with the Commitment Percentage of the Commitments set forth in such Assignment and Assumption. Such Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to amend this Agreement to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of such Purchasing Bank and the resulting adjustment of Commitment Percentages arising from the purchase by such Purchasing Bank of all or a portion of the rights and obligations of such transferor Bank under this Agreement. Upon the consummation of any transfer to a Purchasing Bank, pursuant to this subsection 10.6(d), the transferor Bank, the Agent and the Company shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if required, replacement Notes are issued to such

transferor Bank and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchasing Bank, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their Commitment Percentages or, as appropriate, their outstanding Loans as adjusted pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign at any time to its designating Bank hereunder without the consent of the Company or the Agent any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder and pursuant to its designation agreement and without regard to the limitations set forth in the first sentence of this subsection 10.6(d).

(e) The Agent shall maintain at its address referred to in subsection 10.2 copy of each CAF Loan Assignment and each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of (i) the names and addresses of the Banks and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Bank from time to time, and (ii) with respect to each CAF Loan Assignment delivered to the Agent, the name and address of the CAF Loan Assignee and the principal amount (and stated interest) of each CAF Loan owing to such CAF Loan Assignee. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Company, the Agent and the Banks shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loan recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company or any Bank or CAF Loan Assignee (in the case of a Bank or a CAF Loan Assignee, only with respect to its Aggregate Outstanding Extensions of Credit) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(f) Upon its receipt of a CAF Loan Assignment executed by an assignor Bank and a CAF Loan Assignee, together with payment to the Agent of a registration and processing fee of $2,500, the Agent shall promptly accept such CAF Loan Assignment, record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the assignor Bank, the CAF Loan Assignee and the Company. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by a transferor Bank, a Purchasing Bank and the Agent (and, in the case of a Purchasing Bank that is not then a Bank, a Lender Affiliate or an Approved Fund, by the Company (so long as no Event of Default under subsection 8.1(a) or 8.1(f) is continuing)) together with payment to the Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500, the Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Assumption and (ii) on the Transfer Effective Date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the transferor Bank, the Purchasing Bank and the Company.

(g) The Company authorizes each Bank to disclose to any Participant, CAF Loan Assignee or Purchasing Bank (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Bank’s possession concerning the Company which has been delivered to such Bank by the Company pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Bank by the Company in connection with such Bank’s credit evaluation of the Company prior to entering into this Agreement so long as such Transferee agrees to comply with confidentiality provisions substantially the same as subsection 10.12.

(h) Upon any transfer, pursuant to this subsection 10.6, of any interest in this Agreement, the transferor Bank shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with the provisions of subsection 2.15.

(i) For the avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this subsection 10.6 concerning assignments relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests by a Bank, including to any Federal Reserve Bank, in accordance with applicable law; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Bank as a party hereto.

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

10.7 Adjustments; Set-off.

(a) Except to the extent that this Agreement or a court order provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Bank or Banks, if any Bank (a “Benefitted Bank”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans owing to it, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by offset, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in subsection 8.1(f), or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such payment to and collateral received by any other Bank, if any, in respect of such other Bank’s Loans owing to it, or interest thereon, such Benefitted Bank shall purchase for cash from the other Banks such portion of each such other Bank’s Loans then owing to it, or shall provide such other Banks with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Bank to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Banks; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Bank, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. The Company agrees that each Bank so purchasing a portion of another Bank’s Loan may exercise all rights of a payment (including, without limitation, rights of offset) with respect to such portion as fully as if such Bank were the direct holder of such portion.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Banks provided by law, at any time when an Event of Default is in existence, each Bank shall have the right, without prior notice to the Company, any such notice being expressly waived by the Company to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Company hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Bank, its Affiliates or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Company, as the case may be.

The Company agrees that nothing in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Bank, on the one hand, and the Company, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Banks, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Bank has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company, its

stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Bank has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Company, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (y) each Bank is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Company, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person.

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

10.17 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.
