Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender shall have no obligation to acquire a participation in a US Swing Line Loan pursuant to this paragraph if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time such US Swing Line Loan was made and such Lender shall have notified the US Swing Line Lender in writing, prior to the making by the US Swing Line Lender of such US Swing Line Loan, that such Default has occurred and is continuing and that such Lender will not acquire participations in US Swing Line Loans made while such Default is continuing. No purchase by a Lender of a US Swing Line Loan pursuant to Section 2.5.2 shall require such Lender to exceed its Commitment.

(ii) All US Swing Line Loans shall mature, and the principal amount thereof and the unpaid accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable as set out above in (i) above and on the applicable Commitment Maturity Date. Interest accrued on US Swing Line Loans shall be payable on each Payment Date and on any date on which such US Swing Line Loans are prepaid, whether due to acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity.

2.6 Facility Fee; Usage Fee; Reductions in Aggregate Commitment.

2.6.1 Facility Fee. The Parent agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender according to its Pro Rata Share a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Fee Rate on the Aggregate Commitment from the date hereof to and including the Facility Termination Date, payable on each Payment Date hereafter, on each respective Commitment Maturity Date, and on the Facility Termination Date.

2.6.2 Usage Fee. For all days on which the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure exceeds 50% of the Aggregate Commitment, the Parent agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender according to its Pro Rata Share a usage fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Fee Rate on the amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure from the date hereof to and including the Facility Termination Date, payable on each Payment Date hereafter, on each respective Commitment Maturity Date, and on the Facility Termination Date.

2.6.3 Reductions in Aggregate Commitment. The Parent may permanently reduce the Aggregate Commitment in whole, or in part ratably among the Lenders in integral multiples of $10,000,000 (or the Approximate Equivalent Amount if denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars), upon at least three Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of any such reduction, provided that the amount of the Aggregate Commitment may not be reduced below the Dollar Amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure unless the amount of the excess of the Dollar Amount of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure over the amount of the reduced Aggregate Commitment is repaid concurrently with the reduction of the Aggregate Commitment. All accrued facility fees shall be payable on the effective date of any termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Credit Extensions hereunder.

2.7 Minimum Amount of Each Advance. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and in multiples of $1,000,000 if in excess thereof (or the Approximate Equivalent Amounts if denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars), and each Floating Rate Advance (other than an Advance to repay Swing Line Loans) shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and in multiples of $500,000 if in excess thereof, provided that any Floating Rate Advance may be in the amount of the Available Aggregate Commitment.

2.8 Optional Principal Payments. Any Borrower may from time to time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Floating Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans), or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or any integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding Floating Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans) upon two Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent. The applicable Borrower may at any time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Swing Line Loans that bear interest at the Floating Rate or the Offered Rate, or, in a minimum amount of $100,000 and increments of $50,000 in excess thereof, any portion of such outstanding Swing Line Loans, with notice to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Swing Line Lender(s) by 11:00 a.m. (Central Time) on the date of repayment. Any Borrower may from time to time pay, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all outstanding Eurocurrency Advances (other than Canadian Swing Line Loans), or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or the Approximate Equivalent Amount if denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars), any portion of the outstanding Eurocurrency Advances upon three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent. The Parent or any Canadian Borrower may at any time pay, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all outstanding Canadian Swing Line Loans that bear interest at the Eurocurrency Rate, or, in a minimum amount of $100,000 and increments of $50,000 in excess thereof (or the Approximate Equivalent Amount if denominated in Canadian Dollars), any portion of such outstanding Canadian Swing Line Loans, upon three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent and the Canadian Swing Line Lenders.

2.9 Method of Selecting Types and Interest Periods for New Advances. A Borrower shall select the Type of Advance and, in the case of each Eurocurrency Advance, the Interest Period and Agreed Currency applicable thereto from time to time. Such Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (a “Borrowing Notice”) not later than 10:00 a.m. (Central Time) on the Borrowing Date of each Floating Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan), three Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Eurocurrency Advance denominated in Dollars and four Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Eurocurrency Advance denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, specifying (a) the Borrowing Date, which shall be a Business Day, of such Advance, (b) the aggregate amount of such Advance, (c) the Type of Advance selected, (d) in the case of each Eurocurrency Advance, the Interest Period and Agreed Currency applicable thereto, and (e) the applicable Borrower.

2.10 Conversion and Continuation of Outstanding Advances. (a) Floating Rate Advances (other than Swing Line Loans which shall be continued as provided below) shall continue as Floating Rate Advances unless and until such Floating Rate Advances are converted into Eurocurrency Advances pursuant to this Section 2.10 or are repaid in accordance with Section 2.8. Each Eurocurrency Advance (other than Canadian Swing Line Loans which shall be continued and converted as provided below) shall continue as a Eurocurrency Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time

(i) each such Eurocurrency Advance denominated in Dollars shall be automatically converted into a Floating Rate Advance unless (A) such Eurocurrency Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.8 or (B) the applicable Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency Advance either continue as a Eurocurrency Advance for the same or another Interest Period or be converted into a Floating Rate Advance; and

(ii) each such Eurocurrency Advance denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall automatically continue as a Eurocurrency Advance in the same Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one month unless (A) such Eurocurrency Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.8 or (B) the applicable Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurocurrency Advance continue as a Eurocurrency Advance for the same or another Interest Period.

(b) Each US Swing Line Loan shall, subject to Section 2.5.2(d), continue as such unless prepaid or repaid. Each Canadian Swing Line Loan shall, subject to Section 2.5.1(d) (i) if bearing interest at the Offered Rate, continue as such unless prepaid or repaid, and (ii) if bearing interest at the Eurocurrency Rate, continue as such until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Canadian Swing Line Loan shall, unless prepaid or repaid or any Canadian Swing Line Lender has given the Borrower and the Administrative Agent written notice under Section 2.5.1(c) that it will not continue making Canadian Swing Line Loans, automatically be deemed to be continued as a Canadian Swing Line Loan in the same amount and in the same currency with an Interest Period of one month (commencing on the last day of the expiring Interest Period) unless the Borrower shall have given the Administrative Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Canadian Swing Line Loan continue for the same or another Interest Period or at any applicable Offered Rate, in each case, in the same currency.

(c) Subject to the terms of Section 2.7, any Borrower may elect from time to time to convert all or any part of an Advance of any Type into any other Type or Types of Advances denominated in the same or any other Agreed Currency; provided that any conversion of any Eurocurrency Advance shall be made on, and only on, the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Such Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice (a “Conversion/Continuation Notice”) of each conversion of an Advance or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance not later than 10:00 a.m. (Central Time) at least one Business Day, in the case of a conversion into a Floating Rate Advance, three Business Days, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance denominated in Dollars, or four Business Days, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation, specifying (a) the requested date, which shall be a Business Day, of such conversion or continuation, and (ii) the Agreed Currency, amount and Type(s) of Advance(s) into which such Advance is to be converted or continued and, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurocurrency Advance, the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

2.11 Method of Borrowing. On each Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make available its Loan or Loans, if any, (a) if such Loan is denominated in Dollars, not later than noon, Central Time, in Federal or other funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent at its address specified in or pursuant to Article XIII and, (b) if such Loan is denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, not later than noon, local time, in the city of the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency, in such funds as may then be customary for the settlement of international transactions in such currency in the city of and at the address of the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency. Unless the Administrative Agent determines that any applicable condition specified in Article IV has not been satisfied, the Administrative Agent will make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the applicable Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s aforesaid address. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.11, to the extent that a Loan made by a Lender matures on the Borrowing Date of a requested Loan, such Lender shall apply the proceeds of the Loan it is then making to the repayment of principal of the maturing Loan.

2.12 Changes in Interest Rate, etc. Each Floating Rate Advance (other than a Swing Line Loan) shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Advance is made or is converted from a Eurocurrency Advance into a Floating Rate Advance pursuant to Section 2.10 to but excluding the date it becomes due or is converted into a Eurocurrency Advance pursuant to Section 2.10 hereof, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate for such day. Each Swing Line Loan that bears interest at the Floating Rate or the Offered Rate shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the day such Swing Line Loan is made to but excluding the date it is paid, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate or the Offered Rate, as applicable, for such day. Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of any Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Advance or bearing interest at the Offered Rate will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate or Offered Rate, as applicable. Each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent as applicable to such Eurocurrency Advance based upon the applicable Borrower’s selections under Sections 2.5.2 and 2.9, as applicable, and Section 2.10 and otherwise in accordance with the terms hereof. No Interest Period may end after the Facility Termination Date.

2.13 Rates Applicable After Default. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.9 or 2.10, during the continuance of a Default or Unmatured Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Parent declare that no Advance may be made as, converted into or continued at the end of the applicable Interest Period as a Eurocurrency Advance. During the continuance of a Default the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Parent, declare that (a) each Eurocurrency Advance shall bear interest for the remainder of the applicable Interest Period at the rate otherwise applicable to such Interest Period plus 2% per annum, (b) each Floating Rate Advance shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate in effect from time to time plus 2% per annum, and (c) the LC Fee shall be increased by 2% per annum, provided that, during the continuance of a Default under Section 7.6 or 7.7, the interest rates set out in clauses (a) and (b) above, and the increase in the LC Fee set forth in clause (c) above, shall be applicable to all Credit Extensions without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. Any notice given by Required Lenders under this Section 2.13 may be revoked by Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates.

2.14 Method of Payment. (a) Each Advance shall be repaid, each payment of interest thereon shall be paid, and each reimbursement of any amounts payable upon a drawing under any Facility LC shall be made in the currency in which such Advance or payment was made or, where such currency has converted to the Euro, in the Euro. All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at (except as set out in the next sentence) the Administrative Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article XIII, or at any other Lending Installation of the Administrative Agent specified in writing by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers, by noon (local time) on the date when due and shall (except in the case of Reimbursement Obligations for which any LC Issuer has not been fully indemnified by the Lenders, or as otherwise specifically required hereunder) be applied ratably by the Administrative Agent among the Lenders. All payments to be made by the Borrowers hereunder in any currency other than Dollars shall be made in such currency on the date due in such funds as may then be customary for the settlement of international transactions in such currency for the account of the Administrative Agent, at its Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency and shall be applied ratably by the Administrative Agent among the Lenders. Each payment delivered to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Administrative Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Administrative Agent received at, (a) with respect to Floating Rate Loans and Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars, its address specified pursuant to Article XIII or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Administrative Agent from such Lender and (ii) with respect to Eurocurrency Loans denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars, in the funds received from the applicable Borrower at the address of the Administrative Agent’s Eurocurrency Payment Office for such currency. The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to charge any account of any Borrower maintained with Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates for each payment of principal, interest, Reimbursement Obligations, and fees as it becomes due hereunder. Each reference to the Administrative Agent in this Section 2.14 shall also be deemed to refer, and shall apply equally, to the LC Issuers, in the case of payments required to be made by any Borrower to any LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.26.6.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (a) above, if, after the making of any Advance or the issuance of any Facility LC in any currency other than Dollars, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency with the result that the type of currency in which the Advance was made or the Facility LC was issued (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the applicable Borrower is not able to make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by such Borrower hereunder in such currency (including any deposits required to be made to the Facility LC Collateral Account) shall instead be made when due in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the Borrowers take all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations.

2.15 Advances to be Made in Euro. If any Advance made hereunder or any Facility LC issued hereunder would be capable of being made or issued in either the Euro or in a National Currency Unit, such Advance shall be made or such Facility LC shall be issued in the Euro.

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

(b) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Agreed Currency and Type thereof and the Interest Period with respect thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (iii) the original stated amount of each Facility LC and the amount of LC Obligations outstanding at any time, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(d) Any Lender may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit E (a “Note”). In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender in a form supplied by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 12.3) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 12.3, except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in paragraphs (a) and (b) above.

2.17 Telephonic Notices. Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Administrative Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Agreed Currencies and Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices which the Administrative Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be made by any person or persons that an Authorized Officer of the Parent has designated in writing to the Administrative Agent, which written authorization(s) may be relied upon by the Administrative Agent, in the case of any person so authorized, until such time as the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower revoking such person’s authority to make such telephonic notices, it being understood that the foregoing authorization is specifically intended to allow Borrowing Notices and Conversion/Continuation Notices to be given telephonically. Each Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent a written confirmation, if such confirmation is requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice signed by an Authorized Officer. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.

2.18 Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis. Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Advance shall be payable on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the date hereof, on any date on which the Floating Rate Advance is prepaid, whether due to acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on that portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Floating Rate Advance converted into a Eurocurrency Advance on a day other than a Payment Date shall be payable on the date of conversion. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Eurocurrency Advance is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Eurocurrency Advance having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period. Interest, LC Fees, and other fees (except as provided in the following sentence) shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year, except for interest on Loans denominated in British Pounds Sterling and Loans comprised of Floating Rate Advances, which shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365-day year. Facility Fees and utilization fees shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365-day year. Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance is made but not for the day of any payment on the amount paid if payment is received prior to noon (local time) at the place of payment specified in Section 2.14. If any payment of principal or interest on an Advance shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest in connection with such payment.

2.19 Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Commitment Reductions. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing Notice, Swing Line Borrowing Notice, Conversion/Continuation Notice, and repayment notice received by it hereunder. Promptly after notice from an LC Issuer, the Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each request for issuance of a Facility LC hereunder. The Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Eurocurrency Advance promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base Rate. Each Reference Lender agrees to furnish upon request timely information for the purpose of determining the Eurocurrency Rate.

2.20 Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Loans and its participation in any LC Obligations and each LC Issuer may book the Facility LCs at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, and may change its Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and the Loans, Facility LCs, participations in LC Obligations and any Notes issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender or each LC Issuer, as the case may be, for the benefit of any such Lending Installation. Each Lender and each LC Issuer may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in accordance with Article XIII, designate replacement or additional Lending Installations through which Loans will be made by it or Facility LCs will be issued by it and for whose account Loan payments or payments with respect to Facility LCs are to be made.

2.21 Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent. Unless the applicable Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent prior to the date on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Administrative Agent of (a) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (b) in the case of any Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or such Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Administrative Agent, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (a) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day for the first three days and, thereafter, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan or (ii) in the case of payment by any Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

2.22 Market Disruption. Notwithstanding the satisfaction of all conditions referred to in Article II and Article IV with respect to any Advance in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, if there shall occur on or prior to the date of such Advance any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls which would in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders make it impracticable for the Eurocurrency Loans comprising such Advance to be denominated in the Agreed Currency specified by the applicable Borrower, then the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders, and such Loans shall not be denominated in such Agreed Currency but shall, except as otherwise set out in Section 2.15, be made on such Borrowing Date in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be, as Floating Rate Loans, unless the applicable Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day before such date that (a) it elects not to borrow on such date or (b) it elects to borrow on such date in a different Agreed Currency, as the case may be, in which the denomination of such Loans would in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders be practicable and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Dollar Amount of the aggregate principal amount specified in the related Borrowing Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be.

2.23 Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrowers in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, each of the Borrowers agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 12.2, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to the Borrowers.

2.24 Additional Borrowing Subsidiaries. Upon the request by the Parent and approval by the Administrative Agent, any Subsidiary of the Parent may become a Borrowing Subsidiary hereunder provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Joinder Agreement, together with such evidence of corporate authority to enter into such Joinder Agreement as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, including without limitation, opinions of legal counsel regarding such corporate authority and the enforceability of such Joinder Agreement and such other documents, governmental certificates, agreement as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, including without limitation, information requested in order for the Administrative Agent or any Lender to comply with the Patriot Act.

2.25 Lender Replacement. The Parent shall be permitted to replace with an Eligible Assignee any Lender which (a) makes an assertion of the type described in Section 3.3 or requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2 (either for its own account or for the account of any of its participants), (b) requires any Borrower to pay Taxes in respect of such Lender, (c) fails to make any Advance requested by it if the Required Lenders have made the Advances requested of them pursuant to the same Borrowing Notice or (d) which is a Non-Extending Lender; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive, (ii) no Default or Unmatured Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) in the case of any replacement pursuant to clause (a), (b), or (c) hereof, prior to any such replacement, such Lender being replaced shall not have eliminated the continued need for repayment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.2, as applicable; and (iv) the Parent shall repay (or cause to be repaid) or the Eligible Assignee shall pay to the Lender being replaced, the amount of the Obligations owing to such Lender on the date of replacement (including any amounts owing under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.4).

2.26 Facility LCs.2.26.1 Issuance. Each LC Issuer hereby agrees, on the terms and conditions set out in this Agreement, to issue Financial Letters of Credit, Performance Letters of Credit, Documentary Letters of Credit and Bank Guaranties (each, a “Facility LC”) and to renew, extend, increase, decrease or otherwise modify each Facility LC (“Modify,” and each such action a “Modification”), from time to time from and including the date of this Agreement and prior to its respective Commitment Maturity Date upon the request of any Borrower; provided that (a) each Facility LC shall be issued in an Agreed Currency and (b) immediately after each such Facility LC is issued or Modified, the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure may not exceed the Aggregate Commitment. No Facility LC shall have an expiry date later than five years after its issuance. Any Bank Guaranty issued under this Agreement shall be subject to the additional requirements of Section 2.26.13 hereof.

2.26.2 Participations. Upon the issuance or Modification by any LC Issuer of a Facility LC (other than a Bank Guaranty) in accordance with this Section 2.26, such LC Issuer shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably sold to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from such LC Issuer, a participation in such Facility LC (and each Modification thereof) and the related LC Obligations in proportion to its Pro Rata Share.

2.26.3 Notice. Subject to Section 2.26.1, the applicable Borrower shall give the applicable LC Issuer notice prior to 10:00 a.m. (Central time) at least three Business Days prior to the proposed date of issuance or Modification of each Facility LC, specifying the beneficiary, the applicable currency, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification) and the expiry date of such Facility LC, and describing the proposed terms of such Facility LC and the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby. Upon receipt of such notice, such LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender, of the contents thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s participation in such proposed Facility LC (if applicable). The issuance or Modification by any LC Issuer of any Facility LC shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set out in Article IV (the satisfaction of which such LC Issuer shall have no duty to ascertain), be subject to the conditions precedent that such Facility LC shall be satisfactory to such LC Issuer and that the applicable Borrower shall have executed and delivered such application agreement and/or such other instruments and agreements relating to such Facility LC as such LC Issuer shall have reasonably requested (each, a “Facility LC Application”). In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Facility LC Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

2.26.4 LC Fees. The applicable Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, with respect to each Financial Letter of Credit, Performance Letter of Credit and Documentary Letter of Credit, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin for such Type of Facility LC in effect from time to time on the average daily undrawn stated amount under such Facility LC, such fee to be payable in arrears on each Payment Date (or, with respect to a Modification of any such Facility LC which increases the stated amount thereof, such increase in the stated amount) thereof (each such fee described in this sentence an “LC Fee”). The applicable Borrower shall also pay to the applicable LC Issuer for its own account with respect to each Facility LC (i) a fronting fee of 0.125% per annum of the initial stated amount (or, with respect to a Modification of any such Facility LC which increases the stated amount thereof, such increase in the stated amount), such fee to be payable on the date of such issuance or increase, and (ii) documentary and processing charges in connection with the issuance or Modification of and draws under Facility LCs in accordance with such LC Issuer’s standard schedule for such charges as in effect from time to time.

2.26.5 Administration; Reimbursement by Lenders. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Facility LC of any demand for payment under such Facility LC, the applicable LC Issuer shall notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower as to the amount demanded to be paid by such LC Issuer and the proposed payment date. Upon its determination to honor any such demand for payment, the applicable LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each other Lender of such determination and of the LC Issuer’s intended payment date therefor (the “LC Payment Date”). The responsibility of such LC Issuer to the Borrowers and each Lender shall be only to determine that the documents (including each demand for payment) delivered under each Facility LC in connection with such presentment shall be in conformity in all material respects with such Facility LC. Each LC Issuer shall endeavor to exercise the same care in the issuance and administration of the Facility LCs as it does with respect to letters of credit in which no participations are granted (or with respect to bank guaranties which are not backed by letters of credit, as applicable), it being understood that in the absence of any gross negligence or willful misconduct by such LC Issuer, each Lender shall be unconditionally and irrevocably liable without regard to the occurrence of any Default or any condition precedent whatsoever, to reimburse such LC Issuer on demand for (a) such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of each payment made by such LC Issuer under each Facility LC (other than any Bank Guaranty), in the currency of such Facility LC, to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section 2.26.6 below, plus (b) interest on the foregoing amount to be reimbursed by such Lender, for each day from the date of such LC Issuer’s demand for such reimbursement (or, if such demand is made after 11:00 a.m. (Central Time) on such date, from the next succeeding Business Day) to the date on which such Lender pays the amount to be reimbursed by it, at a rate of interest per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate for the first three days and, thereafter, at a rate of interest equal to the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances.

2.26.6 Reimbursement by Borrower. Each Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse each LC Issuer on or before the applicable LC Payment Date for any amounts to be paid by such LC Issuer upon any drawing under any Facility LC, in the currency of such Facility LC, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind; provided that no Borrower nor any Lender shall hereby be precluded from asserting any claim for direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by such Borrower or such Lender to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (a) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of any LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC issued by it complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (b) any LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC issued by it after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. All such amounts paid by any LC Issuer and remaining unpaid by such Borrower shall bear interest, payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to (i) the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls on or before the applicable LC Payment Date and (ii) the sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls after such LC Payment Date. Each LC Issuer will pay to each Lender ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share all amounts received by it from any Borrower for application in payment, in whole or in part, of the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC (other than any Bank Guaranty) issued by such LC Issuer, but only to the extent such Lender has made payment to such LC Issuer in respect of such Facility LC pursuant to Section 2.26.5. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including without limitation the submission of a Borrowing Notice in compliance with Section 2.8 and the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set out in Article IV), any Borrower may request an Advance hereunder for the purpose of satisfying any Reimbursement Obligation.

2.26.7 Obligations Absolute. The Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 2.26 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which any Borrower may have or have had against any LC Issuer, any Lender or any beneficiary of a Facility LC. The Borrowers further agree with the LC Issuers and the Lenders that the LC Issuers and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC shall not be affected by, among other things, (a) the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or (b) any dispute between or among any Borrowers, any of their Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any financing institution or other party to whom any Facility LC may be transferred, or (c) any claims or defenses whatsoever of any Borrower or of any of its Affiliates against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such transferee. The LC Issuers shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Facility LC. The Borrowers agree that any action taken or omitted by any LC Issuer or any Lender under or in connection with each Facility LC and the related drafts and documents, if done without gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon the Borrowers and shall not put any LC Issuer or any Lender under any liability to any Borrower. Nothing in this Section 2.26.7 is intended to limit the right of any Borrower to make a claim against any LC Issuer for damages as contemplated by the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.26.6.

2.26.8 Actions of LC Issuers. Each LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Facility LC, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by such LC Issuer. Each LC Issuer shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it reasonably deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.26, each LC Issuer shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and any future holders of a participation in any Facility LC.

2.26.9 Indemnification. Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender, each LC Issuer and the Administrative Agent, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any and all claims and damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which such Lender, such LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent may incur (or which may be claimed against such Lender, such LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent by any Person whatsoever) by reason of or in connection with the issuance, execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Facility LC or any actual or proposed use of any Facility LC, including, without limitation, any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which any LC Issuer may incur by reason of or in connection with (a) the failure of any other Lender to fulfill or comply with its obligations to such LC Issuer hereunder (but nothing herein contained shall affect any rights any Borrower may have against any defaulting Lender) or (b) by reason of or on account of such LC Issuer issuing any Facility LC which specifies that the term “Beneficiary” included therein includes any successor by operation of law of the named Beneficiary, but which Facility LC does not require that any drawing by any such successor Beneficiary be accompanied by a copy of a legal document, satisfactory to such LC Issuer, evidencing the appointment of such successor Beneficiary; provided that no Borrower shall be required to indemnify any Lender, any LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (x) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (y) such LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. Nothing in this Section 2.26.9 is intended to limit the obligations of any Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement.

2.26.10 Lenders’ Indemnification. Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, indemnify each LC Issuer, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct or such LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Facility LC) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 2.26 or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

2.26.11 Facility LC Collateral Account. (a) Each Borrower agrees that it will, as provided in clause (b) below, as provided in Section 2.2(a), upon the occurrence of any Default described in Section 7.6 or Section 7.7, or upon the request of the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) upon a Default, and until the final expiration date of any Facility LC (other than a Bank Guaranty) and thereafter as long as any amount is payable to the LC Issuer or the Lenders in respect of any Facility LC (other than a Bank Guaranty), maintain a special collateral account (the “Facility LC Collateral Account”) at the Administrative Agent’s office at the address specified pursuant to Article XIII, in the name of such Borrower but under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the LC Issuers and in which such Borrower shall have no interest other than as set out in Section 2.2(a) and Section 8.1. Each Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the LC Issuers, a security interest in all of such Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the LC Obligations and LC Fees. The Administrative Agent will invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the Facility LC Collateral Account in certificates of deposit or other time deposits of JPMorgan having a maturity not exceeding 30 days. The Parent may select the maturities of such certificates of deposit upon reasonable prior notice to the Administrative Agent; however, if the Parent fails to provide such notice, the Administrative Agent shall select the applicable maturities in its sole discretion. Nothing in this Section 2.26.11 shall either obligate the Administrative Agent to require any Borrower to deposit any funds in the Facility LC Collateral Account or limit the right of the Administrative Agent to release any funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account in each case other than as required by Section 2.2(a), Section 8.1, or clause (b) below.

(b) Each Borrower agrees that, if 45 days prior to the then-applicable Commitment Maturity Date of any LC Issuer, the Commitment Maturity Date of such LC Issuer has not been extended and such LC Issuer has not agreed to extend its Commitment Maturity Date as provided in Section 2.28(b), then, with respect to each Facility LC (other than Bank Guaranties) issued by such LC Issuer with an expiry date later than 5 Business Days prior to the then-applicable Commitment Maturity Date of such LC Issuer, the Borrowers shall provide the applicable LC Issuer with a letter of credit, issued by another LC Issuer or other issuing bank reasonably acceptable to such LC Issuer, naming such LC Issuer as beneficiary, and otherwise reasonably acceptable to such LC Issuer (each, such letter of credit a “Back-Up LC”) in the currency of such Letter of Credit and in an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding LC Obligations (other than LC Obligations with respect to Bank Guaranties) plus the amount of all LC Fees scheduled to be paid through the expiration date of the Facility LCs, in each case, issued by such LC Issuer; provided that if such then-applicable Commitment Maturity Date is the Facility Termination Date, the Borrowers shall either (i) deposit cash collateral in the Facility LC Collateral Account or (ii) provide the applicable LC Issuer with a Back-Up LC as described above, in each case, in the currency of such Letter of Credit and in an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding LC Obligations (other than LC Obligations with respect to Bank Guaranties) plus the amount of all LC Fees scheduled to be paid through the expiration date of the Facility LCs issued by such LC Issuer. Neither the Borrowers nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrowers shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account. Upon the extension of the Commitment Maturity Date of such LC Issuer, the Administrative Agent shall promptly release to the Borrowers all cash collateral provided by the Borrowers, or the applicable LC Issuer(s) shall return all Back-Up LCs to the issuing banks for cancellation, as applicable. Upon the cancellation, surrender, or payment of each Facility LC for which cash collateral or a Back-Up LC was provided pursuant to this Section 2.26.11(b), the Administrative Agent shall promptly release cash collateral to the Borrowers, or the applicable LC Issuer shall instruct the applicable Back-Up LC issuer to reduce the amount available to be drawn under any applicable Back-Up LC, as applicable, in the amount of the LC Obligations (other than Bank Guaranties) which are no longer outstanding as a result thereof, together with the amount of all corresponding LC Fees which will no longer become payable excluding in each case, the amounts applied by Administrative Agent under Section 8.1(c) to satisfy any LC Fees that have become due and payable by any Borrower.

(c) The obligations of each of the Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents regarding Facility LC’s, including without limitation obligations under Section 2.26, shall survive after the Facility Termination Date and termination of this Agreement for so long as any LC Obligations remain outstanding. Each Borrower further agrees that if cash collateral is required to be deposited or any Back-up LCs are required to be provided pursuant to Section 2.26.11(b), it will, promptly upon request of the Administrative Agent or any LC Issuer, as applicable, enter into such agreements, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent or such LC Issuer, as applicable, and such Borrower as the Administrative Agent or such LC Issuer may reasonably require to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.26.11(b) and otherwise govern the administration of the outstanding Facility LC’s and the Facility LC Collateral Account or Back-Up LC requirements, as applicable, the Borrowers’ Reimbursement Obligations and other obligations with respect thereto, and such other provisions as the Administrative Agent or such LC Issuer may reasonably require, in each case, to become effective on the applicable Commitment Maturity Date if the same is not extended.

2.26.12 Rights as a Lender. In its capacity as a Lender, each LC Issuer shall have the same rights and obligations as any other Lender.

2.26.13 Bank Guaranties. Each LC Issuer’s agreement to issue Bank Guaranties hereunder is conditioned upon (a) such LC Issuer’s determination, in its sole discretion, that it is able to issue a Bank Guaranty in the applicable jurisdiction and (b) the simultaneous issuance by a LC Issuer of a Facility LC (other than a Bank Guaranty) supporting the applicable Borrower’s obligations under such Bank Guaranty for the entire term thereof. Any Modification which increases or extends the amount or term of a Bank Guaranty shall be conditioned upon a simultaneous corresponding Modification of the Facility LC supporting such Bank Guaranty. The applicable Borrower shall provide notice requesting the issuance or Modification, as applicable, of any such supporting Facility LC at the same time at which such Borrower provides notice requesting the issuance or Modification, as applicable, of the Bank Guaranty which such Facility LC supports, all in accordance with Section 2.26.3.

2.27 Increase in Aggregate Commitment.

(a) Provided no Default or Unmatured Default exists, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, the Parent may request one or more increases (the amount of any such increase being a “Commitment Increase”) in the Aggregate Commitment which in the aggregate do not exceed $350,000,000 and do not cause the Aggregate Commitment to exceed $700,000,000. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give the Lenders (each of which, in its sole discretion, may determine whether and to what degree to participate in such Commitment Increase) notice of such request. In its notice to the Administrative Agent, the Parent shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Administrative Agent). Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to increase its Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Pro Rata Share of such requested increase (any such Lender that agrees to increase its Commitment hereunder, an “Increasing Lender"). Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to increase its Commitment. No Lender’s Commitment amount shall be increased without the consent of such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. If the Increasing Lenders agree to increase their respective Commitments by an aggregate amount in excess of the requested Commitment Increase, the requested Commitment Increase shall be allocated among such Increasing Lenders in proportion to their respective Commitments immediately prior to the Increase Date. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase, the Borrowers may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders (any such Lender, an “Additional Lender"). The sum of the increases in the Commitments of the Increasing Lenders plus the Commitments of the Additional Lenders upon giving effect to the Commitment Increase shall not in the aggregate exceed the amount of the Commitment Increase.

(b) Any Commitment Increase shall become effective upon (i) the receipt by the Administrative Agent of (A) an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent signed by the Borrowers, each Increasing Lender and each Additional Lender, setting forth the new Commitments of each such Lender and setting forth the agreement of each Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement and to be bound by all the terms and provisions hereof binding upon each Lender, and (B) such evidence of appropriate authorization on the part of the Borrowers with respect to the Commitment Increase and such opinions of counsel for the Borrowers with respect to the Commitment Increase as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, (ii) the funding by each Increasing Lender and Additional Lender of the Revolving Loans to be made by each such Lender described in subsection (c) below, if applicable, and (iii) receipt by the Administrative Agent of a certificate (the statements contained in which shall be true) of an Authorized Officer of each Borrower certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Borrower approving or consenting to such Commitment Increase, and stating that both before and after giving effect to such Commitment Increase (A) no Default has occurred and is continuing, and (B) all representations and warranties in this Agreement are true and correct in all material respects, unless such representation or warranty relates to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the final allocation of any Commitment Increase and the effective date thereof.

(c) Upon the effective date of any Commitment Increase, if any Advances (other than Swing Line Loans) are then outstanding, each Increasing Lender and each Additional Lender shall provide funds to the Administrative Agent in the manner described in Section 2.2. The funds so provided by any Lender shall be deemed to be a Revolving Loan made by such Lender on the date of such Commitment Increase, an in an amount such that after giving effect to such Commitment Increase and the Revolving Loans made on the date of such Commitment Increase, each Advance outstanding hereunder shall consist of Revolving Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with each Lender’s Pro Rata Share. Also upon giving effect to any Commitment Increase, each Lender shall participate in any outstanding Facility LC’s (other than any Bank Guaranties) and Swing Line Loans ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

(d) Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, from and after the date of any Commitment Increase and the making of any Revolving Loans on such date pursuant to subsection (c) above, all calculations and payments of interest on the Advances and payment of amounts owing with respect to other Outstanding Credit Exposure of each Lender shall take into account the actual Commitment of each Lender and the principal amount outstanding of each Revolving Loan made by such Lender during the relevant period of time.

(e) The Aggregate Commitments may be increased in accordance with, and to the extent permitted by, this Section 2.27, without the consent of the requisite Lenders otherwise required under Section 8.2.

2.28 Extension of Facility Termination Date.

(a) Requests for Extension. The Parent may, on behalf of all Borrowers, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders) not earlier than 90 days and not later than 60 days prior to any Anniversary Date, request that each Lender extend such Lender’s Commitment Maturity Date for an additional one year from such Lender’s Commitment Maturity Date then in effect. The Parent may not request more than three such extensions pursuant to this Section 2.28.

(b) Lender Elections to Extend. If the Parent makes the request in clause (a) above, each Lender, acting in its sole and individual discretion, shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not earlier than 60 days prior to the applicable Anniversary Date and not later than the date that is 45 days prior to the applicable Anniversary Date (the “Notice Date”), advise the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension. Each Lender that decides not to extend its Commitment Maturity Date (each, a “Non-Extending Lender”) and each Lender that decides to extend its Commitment Maturity Date (each, an “Extending Lender”) shall notify the Administrative Agent of such decision promptly after such determination (but in any event no later than the Notice Date), and any Lender that does not otherwise advise the Administrative Agent on or before the Notice Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender. The election of any Lender to agree to such extension pursuant to this Section 2.28 shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree.

(c) Notification by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent of each Lender’s determination under this Section at least 40 days prior to the applicable Anniversary Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately preceding Business Day).

(d) Additional Commitment Lenders. The Borrowers shall have the right, at any time on or before the date which is 30 days after the applicable Anniversary Date, to replace each Non-Extending Lender with, and add as “Lenders” under this Agreement in place thereof, one or more Eligible Assignees who shall agree to become Extending Lenders (each, an “Additional Commitment Lender”) as provided in Section 2.25, each of which Additional Commitment Lenders shall have entered into an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit C pursuant to which such Additional Commitment Lender shall, effective at any time prior to the date which is 30 days after the applicable Anniversary Date, undertake a Commitment (and, if any such Additional Commitment Lender is already a Lender, its Commitment shall be in addition to such Lender’s Commitment hereunder on such date). Notwithstanding any provision contained herein to the contrary, from and after the date of any extension of any Commitment Maturity Date and the prepayment of any Revolving Loans on the applicable Anniversary Date pursuant to Section 2.25 and subsection (f) below, all calculations and payments of interest on the Advances and payment of amounts owing with respect to other Outstanding Credit Exposure of each Lender shall take into account the actual Commitment of each Lender and the principal amount outstanding of each Revolving Loan made by such Lender during the relevant period of time.

(e) Minimum Extension Requirement. If (and only if) the total of the Commitments of the Lenders that have agreed to extend their respective Commitment Maturity Dates and the additional Commitments of the Additional Commitment Lenders that have entered into an assignment agreement as provided in subsection (d) above shall equal or exceed 51% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the applicable Anniversary Date, then, effective as of the applicable Anniversary Date, the Commitment Maturity Date of each Extending Lender and of each such Additional Commitment Lender shall be extended to the date that is one year after such Lender’s Commitment Maturity Date then in effect (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Commitment Maturity Date as so extended shall be the immediately preceding Business Day) and each such Additional Commitment Lender shall thereupon become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement. Such extension shall constitute an extension of the Facility Termination Date for all purposes of this Agreement. If any Additional Commitment Lender enters into an assignment agreement as provided in subsection (d) above after the applicable Anniversary Date (but in any event within 30 days after such date), then, effective as of the applicable effective date of such assignment (the “Assignment Date"), the Commitment Maturity Date of each such Additional Commitment Lender shall be the date that is one year after the Commitment Maturity Date then in effect for the Non-Extending Lender being replaced by the applicable Additional Commitment Lender (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Commitment Maturity Date as so extended shall be the immediately preceding Business Day) and each such Additional Commitment Lender shall thereupon become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement. Each Non-Extending Lender shall maintain its respective original Commitment Maturity Date, unless such Non-Extending Lender is replaced by an Eligible Assignee as provided herein.

(f) Conditions to Effectiveness of Extensions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any extension of any Commitment Maturity Date pursuant to this Section shall not be effective with respect to any Lender unless:

(i) no Default or Unmatured Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the applicable Anniversary Date or Assignment Date, as applicable, and after giving effect to any extension granted under this Section;

(ii) the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement are true and correct on and as of the applicable Anniversary Date or Assignment Date, as applicable, and after giving effect thereto, as though made on and as the applicable Anniversary Date or Assignment Date, as applicable (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date); and

(iii) on the applicable Anniversary Date or Assignment Date, as applicable, the Borrowers shall prepay any Revolving Loans outstanding on such date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.4) to the extent necessary to keep outstanding Revolving Loans ratable with any revised Pro Rata Shares of the respective Lenders effective as of such date. In addition, upon giving effect to any revision of Pro Rata Shares pursuant to this Section 2.28, each Lender shall participate in any outstanding Facility LC’s (other than any Bank Guaranties) and Swing Line Loans ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

ARTICLE III

YIELD PROTECTION; TAXES

3.1 Yield Protection. (a) If, on or after the date of this Agreement, the adoption of any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law), or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental or quasi-governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender or applicable Lending Installation or any LC Issuer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency:

(i) subjects any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or any LC Issuer to any Taxes, or changes the basis of taxation of payments (other than with respect to Excluded Taxes) to any Lender or any LC Issuer in respect of its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein, or

(ii) imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or any LC Issuer (other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances), or

(iii) imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or any LC Issuer of making, funding or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans or Commitment, or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs, (including, without limitation, any conversion of any Loan denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Euro into a Loan denominated in Euro), or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or any LC Issuer in connection with its Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein, or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or any LC Issuer to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of Eurocurrency Loans, Facility LCs or participations therein held or interest or LCs Fees received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender or such LC Issuer as the case may be,

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, of making or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans (including, without limitation, any conversion of any Loan denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Euro into a Loan denominated in Euro) or Commitment or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs or to reduce the return received by such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, in connection with such Eurocurrency Loans, Commitment, Facility Fees or participations therein, then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, the Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, for the actual increased cost or reduction in amount received.

(b) If any law or any governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline or directive of any jurisdiction outside of the United States of America or any subdivision thereof (whether or not having the force of law), imposes or deems applicable any reserve requirement against or fee with respect to assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation, or any LC Issuer, and the result of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or such LC Issuer of making or maintaining its Eurocurrency Loans to, or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs upon the request of, or of making or maintaining its Commitment to, any Borrower that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (each a “Non-U.S. Borrower”) or to reduce the return received by such Lender or applicable Lending Installation or such LC Issuer in connection with such Eurocurrency Loans to, Facility LCs applied for by, or Commitment to any Non-U.S. Borrower, then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender, or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, such Non-U.S. Borrower shall pay such Lender, or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it for such increased cost or reduction in amount received, provided that such Non-U.S. Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender for such non-U.S. reserve costs or fees to the extent that an amount equal to such reserve costs or fees is received by such Lender as a result of the calculation of the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances pursuant to clause (a)(ii) of the definition of “Eurocurrency Rate.”

3.2 Changes in Capital Adequacy Regulations. If a Lender or LC Issuer determines the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or such LC Issuer, any Lending Installation of such Lender or such LC Issuer or any corporation controlling such Lender or such LC Issuer is increased as a result of a Change (as hereinafter defined), then, within 15 days of demand by such Lender or such LC Issuer, the Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such LC Issuer the amount necessary to compensate for any shortfall in the rate of return on the portion of such increased capital which such Lender or such LC Issuer determines is attributable to this Agreement, its Outstanding Credit Exposure or its Commitment to make Loans and issue or participate in Facility LCs, as the case may be, hereunder (after taking into account such Lender or such LC Issuer’s policies as to capital adequacy). “Change” means (a) any change after the date of this Agreement in the Risk-Based Capital Guidelines or (b) any adoption of or change in any other law, governmental or quasi-governmental rule, regulation, policy, guideline, interpretation, or directive (whether or not having the force of law) after the date of this Agreement which affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or any LC Issuer or any Lending Installation or any corporation controlling any Lender or any LC Issuer. “Risk-Based Capital Guidelines” means (a) the risk-based capital guidelines in effect in the United States on the date of this Agreement, including transition rules, and (b) the corresponding capital regulations promulgated by regulatory authorities outside the United States implementing the July 1988 report of the Basle Committee on Banking Regulation and Supervisory Practices Entitled “International Convergence of Capital Measurements and Capital Standards,” including transition rules, and any amendments to such regulations adopted prior to the date of this Agreement.

3.3 Availability of Types of Advances. If any Lender determines that maintenance of its Eurocurrency Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive, whether or not having the force of law, or if the Required Lenders determine that (a) deposits of a type, currency and maturity appropriate to match fund Eurocurrency Advances are not available or (b) the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining Eurocurrency Advances, then the Administrative Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurocurrency Advances and require any affected Eurocurrency Advances to be repaid or converted to Floating Rate Advances, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4. If the Administrative Agent suspends the availability of Eurocurrency Advances under this Section 3.3, the availability of Eurocurrency Advances shall be reinstated upon, as applicable (i) the replacement of the Lender (or Lenders) which determined that maintenance of its Eurocurrency Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive, or (ii) the Required Lenders determine that (A) deposits of a type, currency and maturity appropriate to match fund Eurocurrency Advances are once again available or (B) the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Advances once again accurately reflects the cost of making or maintaining Eurocurrency Advances.

3.4 Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a Eurocurrency Advance occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a Eurocurrency Advance or prepayment of a Eurocurrency Advance is not made on the date specified by the applicable Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders, each of the Borrowers will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any actual loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Eurocurrency Advance.

3.5 Taxes. (a) All payments by the Borrowers to or for the account of any Lender, any LC Issuer, or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any Note or LC Application shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes. If any Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender, any LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.5) such Lender, such LC Issuer or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv) such Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof within 30 days after such payment is made. Each Lender, or each LC Issuer, as applicable agrees to use reasonable efforts to obtain the benefit of any tax or other credit or allowance which may be available to it as a consequence of any such deduction made by a Borrower in accordance herewith and will pay to such Borrower an amount equal to all or such portion of the net benefit actually received by such Lender (or such LC Issuer) as it reasonably allocate to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lender (or a LC Issuer) shall not be required to apply for any tax credit or allowance or to make a payment to a Borrower under this Section 3.5(a) if such Lender (or such LC Issuer) determines in good faith that to do so would be prejudicial to its own interests. Should it later develop because of loss carrybacks, tax credit carrybacks, or otherwise that a Lender or a LC Issuer in fact did not receive the net benefits so paid to such Borrower, such Borrower shall promptly reimburse such Lender or such LC Issuer for the amount by which the payment theretofore made to any Borrower exceeds the net benefit actually so received and reasonably allocated to this Agreement by such Lender or such LC Issuer, as reasonably determined in good faith by such Lender or such LC Issuer.

(b) In addition, each Borrower hereby agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note or Facility LC Application (“Other Taxes”).

(c) Each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender, and each LC Issuer for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender, or such LC Issuer and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days of the date the Administrative Agent, such Lender, or such LC Issuer makes demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6.

(d) Each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (each a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that it will, not more than ten Business Days after the date of this Agreement, (i) deliver to each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, and (ii) deliver to each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent a United States Internal Revenue Form W-8 or W-9, as the case may be, and certify that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax. Each Non-U.S. Lender further undertakes to deliver to each of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (A) renewals or additional copies of such form (or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete, and (B) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, such additional forms or amendments thereto as may be reasonably requested by any Borrower or the Administrative Agent. All forms or amendments described in the preceding sentence shall certify that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form or amendment with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

(e) For any period during which a Non-U.S. Lender has failed to provide the Borrowers with an appropriate form pursuant to clause (d), above (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.5 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that, should a Non-U.S. Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required under clause (iv), above, the Borrowers shall take such steps as such Non-U.S. Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Non-U.S. Lender to recover such Taxes.

(f) Any Lender or any LC Issuer entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or any Note or LC Application pursuant to the law of any relevant jurisdiction or any treaty shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

(g) If the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other governmental authority of the United States or any other country or any political subdivision thereof asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or properly completed, because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered its exemption from withholding ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax, withholding therefor, or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable to the Administrative Agent under this subsection, together with all costs and expenses related thereto (including attorneys fees and time charges of attorneys for the Administrative Agent, which attorneys may be employees of the Administrative Agent). The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 3.5(g) shall survive the payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

3.6 Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Eurocurrency Loans to reduce any liability of any Borrower to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 or to avoid the unavailability of Eurocurrency Advances under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not, in the judgment of such Lender, disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5. Such written statement shall set out in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be final, conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Eurocurrency Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Eurocurrency Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type, currency and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Eurocurrency Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by the Borrowers of such written statement. The obligations of each of the Borrowers under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

The Borrowers represent and warrant to the Lenders that:

5.1 Existence and Standing. Each of the Borrowers is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company duly and properly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, validly existing and (to the extent such concept applies to such entity) in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and has all requisite authority to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted. Each of the Borrowers and each of the Subsidiaries is duly qualified and in good standing (to the extent applicable) as a foreign corporation or other business entity and is duly authorized to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted or proposed to be conducted except where the failure to qualify may not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.2 Authorization and Validity. Each of the Borrowers has the power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery by the Borrowers of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by proper corporate proceedings, and the Loan Documents to which each of the Borrowers is a party constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of each of the Borrowers enforceable against each of such Borrowers in accordance with their terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally.

5.3 No Conflict; Government Consent. Neither the execution and delivery by each of the Borrowers of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, nor the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will violate (a) any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award binding on any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries or (b) any Borrower’s or any of their Subsidiaries’ articles or certificate of incorporation, partnership agreement, certificate of partnership, articles or certificate of organization, by-laws, or operating or other management agreement, as the case may be, or (c) the provisions of any indenture, instrument or agreement to which any of the Borrowers or any of their respective Subsidiaries is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is bound, or conflict with or constitute a default thereunder, or result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien in, of or on the Property of any Borrower or a Subsidiary pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, instrument or agreement. No order, consent, adjudication, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, or exemption by, or other action in respect of any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, which has not been obtained by the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries, is required to be obtained by any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the borrowings under this Agreement, the payment and performance by the Borrowers of the Obligations or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents.

5.4 Financial Statements. The December 31, 2004 consolidated financial statements of the Parent and its Subsidiaries heretofore delivered to the Lenders were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in effect on the date such statements were prepared and fairly present the consolidated financial condition and operations of the Parent and its Subsidiaries at such date and the consolidated results of their operations for the period then ended.

5.5 Taxes. The Parent and its Subsidiaries have filed all United States federal tax returns and all other tax returns which are required to be filed and have paid all taxes due pursuant to said returns or pursuant to any assessment received by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, except such taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles and as to which no Lien exists. The United States income tax returns of the Parent and its Subsidiaries have been audited by the Internal Revenue Service (or the applicable statute of limitations has expired) through the years ending December 31, 1999. No tax liens have been filed and no claims are being asserted with respect to any such taxes. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Parent and its Subsidiaries in respect of any taxes or other governmental charges are adequate.

5.6 Litigation and Contingent Obligations. There is no litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of any of their officers, threatened against or affecting the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which seeks to prevent, enjoin or delay the making of any Credit Extensions. Other than any liability incident to any litigation, arbitration or proceeding which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Parent has no material contingent obligations not provided for or disclosed in the financial statements referred to in Section 5.4.

5.7 Subsidiaries. Schedule 1 contains an accurate list of all Subsidiaries of the Parent as of the date of this Agreement, setting forth their respective jurisdictions of organization and the percentage of their respective capital stock or other ownership interests owned by the Parent or other Subsidiaries. Each Borrowing Subsidiary is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of which is owned by the Parent or one of its Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of each Subsidiary or other ownership interests of such Subsidiaries have been (to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such ownership interests) duly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable, and are free and clear of all Liens. No authorized but unissued or treasury shares of capital stock of any Subsidiary are subject to any option, warrant, right to call, or commitment of any kind or character. Except as set out on Schedule 1, no Subsidiary has any outstanding stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for any shares of its capital stock, or any right issued to any Person (either preemptive or other) to subscribe for or to purchase, or any options for the purchase of, or any agreements providing for the issuance (contingent or otherwise) of, or any calls, commitments, or claims of any character relating to any of its capital stock or any stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for any of its capital stock other than as expressly set out in the certificate or articles of incorporation or other charter document of the Parent or such Subsidiary.

5.8 ERISA. The Unfunded Liabilities of all Single Employer Plans do not in the aggregate exceed $50,000,000. Neither the Parent nor any other member of the Controlled Group has incurred, or is reasonably expected by the Parent to incur, any withdrawal liability to Multiemployer Plans. Each Plan complies in all material respects with all applicable requirements of law and regulations, no material Reportable Event has occurred with respect to any Plan, neither the Parent nor any other member of the Controlled Group has withdrawn from any Multiemployer Plan or initiated steps to do so, and no steps have been taken to reorganize or terminate any Single Employer Plan.

5.9 Accuracy of Information. No information, exhibit or report furnished by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent or to any Lender in connection with the negotiation of, or compliance with, the Loan Documents contained any material misstatement of fact or omitted to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading.

5.10 Regulation U. Margin stock (as defined in Regulation U) constitutes less than 25% of the value of those assets of the Parent and its Subsidiaries which are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge, or other restriction hereunder.

5.11 Material Agreements. Neither the Parent nor any Subsidiary is a party to any agreement or instrument or subject to any charter or other corporate restriction which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Parent nor any Subsidiary is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in (a) any agreement to which it is a party, which default could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (b) any agreement or instrument evidencing or governing Material Indebtedness.

5.12 Compliance With Laws. The Parent and its Subsidiaries have complied with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof having jurisdiction over the conduct of their respective businesses or the ownership of their respective Property except for any failure to comply with any of the foregoing which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.13 Ownership of Properties. The Parent and its Subsidiaries have good title, free of all Liens other than those permitted by Section 6.15, to all of the Property and assets reflected in the Parent’s most recent consolidated financial statements provided to the Administrative Agent as owned by the Parent and its Subsidiaries.

5.14 Plan Assets; Prohibited Transactions. None of the Borrowers is an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101 of an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) which is subject to Title I of ERISA or any plan (within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code), and neither the execution of this Agreement nor the making of Credit Extensions hereunder gives rise to a prohibited transaction within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

5.15 Environmental Matters. In the ordinary course of its business, the officers of the Parent consider the effect of Environmental Laws on the business of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, in the course of which they identify and evaluate potential risks and liabilities accruing to the Parent and its Subsidiaries due to Environmental Laws. On the basis of this consideration, the Parent has concluded that Environmental Laws cannot reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries has received any notice to the effect that its operations are not in material compliance with any of the requirements of applicable Environmental Laws or are the subject of any federal or state investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to a release of any toxic or hazardous waste or substance into the environment, which non-compliance or remedial action is reasonably expected by the Parent to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.16 Investment Company Act. None of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

5.17 Public Utility Holding Company Act. None of the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries is a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company”, or an “affiliate” of a “holding company” or of a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company”, within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

5.18 Reportable Transaction. The Borrowers do not intend to treat the Advances and related transactions as being a “reportable transaction” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4). In the event the Borrowers determine to take any action inconsistent with such intention, it will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such intent.

5.19 Foreign Assets Control Regulations, etc.. (a) Neither any Facility LC nor any part of the proceeds of the Loans will violate the Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto.

(b) Neither the Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) is, or will become, a Person described or designated in the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List of the Office of Foreign Assets Control or in Section 1 of the Anti-Terrorism Order or (ii) engages or will engage in any dealings or transactions, or is or will be otherwise associated, with any such Person. The Parent and its Subsidiaries are in compliance, in all material respects, with the USA Patriot Act.

(c) Neither any Facility LC nor any part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended, assuming in all cases that such act applies to the Parent and its Subsidiaries.

5.20 Obligations Pari Passu. The obligations of each Borrower arising under this Agreement and the Loan Documents rank pari passu and equal in right of payment with all of the other Indebtedness of each Borrower, which is not by its terms secured by any assets of each Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and which is not subordinate in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of such Borrower or its Subsidiaries.

(c) Liens arising out of pledges or deposits under worker’s compensation laws, unemployment insurance, old age pensions, or other social security or retirement benefits, or similar legislation.

(d) Utility easements, building restrictions and such other encumbrances or charges against real property as are of a nature generally existing with respect to properties of a similar character and which do not in any material way affect the marketability of the same or interfere with the use thereof in the business of any Borrower or its Subsidiaries.

6.18 Restrictions on Subsidiary Payments. The Parent shall not, nor shall it permit any Subsidiary to, enter into any indenture, agreement, instrument or other arrangement which, directly or indirectly, prohibits or restrains, or has the effect of prohibiting or restraining, or imposes materially adverse conditions upon the ability of any Subsidiary to (a) pay dividends or make other distributions on its capital stock, (b) make loans or advances to the Parent, or (c) repay loans or advances from the Parent.

6.20 Total Debt to Total Capitalization Ratio. The Parent, on a consolidated basis with the Subsidiaries, shall not permit the ratio of Total Debt to Total Capitalization to be greater than 60% at any time.

ARTICLE VIII

ACCELERATION, WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES

8.1 Acceleration; Facility LC Collateral Account. (a) If any Default described in Section 7.6 or Section 7.7 occurs with respect to any Borrower, the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuers to issue Facility LCs shall automatically terminate and the Obligations shall immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of the Administrative Agent, any LC Issuer, or any Lender and the Borrowers will be and become thereby unconditionally obligated, without any further notice, act or demand, to pay to the Administrative Agent an amount determined as set forth below in immediately available funds, which funds shall be held in the Facility LC Collateral Account. The Administrative Agent shall determine the difference of (i) the amount of LC Obligations at such time (other than LC Obligations with respect to Bank Guaranties), less (ii) the amount on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account at such time which is free and clear of all rights and claims of third parties and has not been applied against the Obligations (such difference, the “Collateral Shortfall Amount”). The Borrowers will pay to the Administrative Agent, for deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account, either (y) the Collateral Shortfall Amount in the applicable Agreed Currency or Currencies or (z) an amount equal to 110% of the Dollar Amount of the Collateral Shortfall Amount (calculated as of the applicable Computation Date) in Dollars, as elected by the Parent. If any Default other than a Default under Section 7.6 or Section 7.7 exists, the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) may (A) terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuers to issue Facility LCs, or declare the Obligations to be due and payable, or both, whereupon the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which each of the Borrowers hereby expressly waives, and (B) upon notice to the Borrowers and in addition to the continuing right to demand payment of all amounts payable under this Agreement, make demand on the Borrowers to pay, and the Borrowers will, forthwith upon demand (and without any further notice or act), pay to the Administrative Agent either (y) the Collateral Shortfall Amount in the applicable Agreed Currency or Currencies or (z) an amount equal to 110% of the Dollar Amount of the Collateral Shortfall Amount (calculated as of the applicable Computation Date) in Dollars, as elected by the Parent, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account.

(b) If at any time while any Default is continuing, the Administrative Agent determines that the Collateral Shortfall Amount at such time is greater than zero, the Administrative Agent may make demand on the Borrowers to pay, and the Borrowers will, forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Administrative Agent either (y) the Collateral Shortfall Amount in the applicable (as determined by the Administrative Agent) Agreed Currency or Currencies or (z) an amount equal to 110% of the Dollar Amount of the Collateral Shortfall Amount (calculated as of the applicable Computation Date) in Dollars, as elected by the Parent, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account.

(c) So long as any Facility LC is outstanding, amounts deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account, if any, shall only be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of Reimbursement Obligations and LC Fees that are due and payable. If no Facility LC remains outstanding, and the Facility Termination Date has occurred or a Default is continuing, the Administrative Agent may apply the remaining amounts deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account, if any, to the payment of the Obligations and any other amounts as shall from time to time have become due and payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders or the LC Issuers under the Loan Documents. If, following the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this Section 8.1, all Defaults are cured or waived and no Default is continuing, the remaining amounts deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account, if any, shall be returned to the Borrowers to the extent such cash collateral is not otherwise expressly required under the terms of this Agreement.

(d) At any time while any Default is continuing, neither the Borrowers nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrowers shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account. After all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Aggregate Commitment has been terminated, any funds remaining in the Facility LC Collateral Account shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers or paid to whomever may be legally entitled thereto at such time.

(e) If, within 30 days after acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and the obligation and the power of LC Issuers to issue Facility LCs hereunder as a result of any Default (other than any Default as described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 with respect to any Borrower) and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the Obligations due have been obtained or entered, the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) so direct, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrowers, rescind and annul such acceleration and/or termination and the Administrative Agent shall promptly release all or part of the cash collateral, as applicable, to the Borrowers to the extent such cash collateral is not otherwise required under the terms of this Agreement.

8.2 Amendments. Subject to the provisions of this Article VIII, the Required Lenders (or the Administrative Agent with the consent in writing of the Required Lenders) and the Borrowers may enter into agreements supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding or modifying any provisions to the Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or any Borrower hereunder or waiving any Default hereunder; provided that no such supplemental agreement shall, without the consent of all of the Lenders:

(a) Extend the final maturity of any Loan, or forgive all or any portion of any Reimbursement Obligation or the principal amount of any Loan, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees on any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligations.

(b) Reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders or otherwise change the percentage of Lenders which shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or amend the definition of Pro Rata Share or the provisions of Section 11.2.

(c) Extend any Commitment Maturity Date or the Facility Termination Date, other than as expressly permitted under Section 2.28, permit any Facility LC to have an expiration date later than 5 years from its date of issuance, or reduce the amount or extend the payment date for, the mandatory payments required under Section 2.2.

(d) Increase the amount of the Aggregate Commitment, the Commitment of any Lender hereunder or the commitment to issue Facility LCs, other than as expressly permitted under Section 2.27.

(e) Amend this Section 8.2.

(f) Release, in whole or in part, the Parent under the Guaranty.

(g) Permit any assignment by any of the Borrowers of their respective Obligations or their rights hereunder.

(h) Release all or any substantial portion of any cash collateral provided pursuant to this Agreement (other than in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), or waive the Borrowers’ obligation to provide cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.26.11.

No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to the Administrative Agent shall be effective without the written consent of the Administrative Agent, and no amendment or any provision relating to the LC Issuers shall be effective without the written consent of each of the LC Issuers. No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to any Swing Line Lender or any Swing Line Loans shall be effective without the written consent of the applicable Swing Line Lender(s). The Administrative Agent may waive payment of the fee required under Section 12.3.2 without obtaining the consent of any other party to this Agreement.

8.3 Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission of the Lenders, the LC Issuers, or the Administrative Agent to exercise any right under the Loan Documents shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of any Default or an acquiescence therein, and the making of a Credit Extension notwithstanding the existence of a Default or the inability of any Borrower to satisfy the conditions precedent to such Credit Extension shall not constitute any waiver or acquiescence. Any single or partial exercise of any such right shall not preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, and no waiver, amendment or other variation of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Loan Documents whatsoever shall be valid unless in writing signed by the Lenders required pursuant to Section 8.2, and then only to the extent in such writing specifically set out. All remedies contained in the Loan Documents or by law afforded shall be cumulative and all shall be available to the Administrative Agent, the LC Issuers, and the Lenders until the Obligations have been paid in full.

9.3 Headings. Section headings in the Loan Documents are for convenience of reference only, and shall not govern the interpretation of any of the provisions of the Loan Documents.

9.5 Several Obligations; Benefits of this Agreement. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and no Lender shall be the partner or agent of any other (except to the extent to which the Administrative Agent is authorized to act as such). The failure of any Lender to perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall not be construed so as to confer any right or benefit upon any Person other than the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and assigns, provided, however, that the parties hereto expressly agree that the Arranger shall enjoy the benefits of the provisions of Sections 9.6, 9.10 and 10.11 to the extent specifically set forth therein and shall have the right to enforce such provisions on its own behalf and in its own name to the same extent as if it were a party to this Agreement.

9.6 Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The Parent shall reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Arranger for any costs and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees of such Persons) paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Arranger in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, syndication, distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet), review, amendment, modification, and administration of the Loan Documents. The Parent also agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the LC Issuers, and the Lenders for any costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including attorneys’ fees of such Persons) paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any LC Issuer, or any Lender in connection with the collection and enforcement of the Loan Documents.

(b) Each of the Borrowers hereby further agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, each LC Issuer, each Lender, their respective affiliates, and each of their directors, officers and employees against all losses, claims, damages, penalties, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor whether or not the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any LC Issuer, any Lender or any affiliate is a party thereto) which any of them may pay or incur arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the transactions contemplated hereby or the direct or indirect application or proposed application of the proceeds of any Loan hereunder, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of the party seeking indemnification and whether brought by a third party or by the Borrowers, except to the extent that they are determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party seeking indemnification. The obligations of the Borrowers under this Section 9.6 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(c) Each Person claiming a right to indemnification under this Section 9.6 shall promptly give the Parent written notice of receipt by such Person of notice of the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding and the Parent (or any applicable Borrower) shall have the right, but not the obligation to participate in the defense of such action. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of any such Person to so notify the Parent promptly of any such action, suit, or proceeding shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to the indemnified party hereunder, except to the extent that such failure has a material adverse effect on the indemnifying party’s ability to defend such claim. The Parent (or applicable Borrower) may participate in a reasonable manner at its own expense and with its own counsel in any proceeding conducted by any Borrower in accordance with the foregoing.

(i) The indemnified party shall consult in good faith with the indemnifying party and its counsel with respect to the defense and shall keep the indemnifying party reasonably informed as to the progress of the defense. The Administrative Agent shall supply the Parent (or applicable Borrower) with such information and documents reasonably requested by the Parent (or applicable Borrower) as are necessary or advisable for the Parent (or applicable Borrower) to participate in any action, suit or proceeding.

(ii) Except during the existence of a Default, no indemnified party shall enter into any settlement or other compromise with respect to any claim which is entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement if such settlement or compromise would result in any payment hereunder without the prior written consent of the Parent (or applicable Borrower), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

(iii) Upon payment in full of any claim by the Parent (or applicable Borrower) pursuant to this Agreement, to or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the LC Issuer, any Lender or their respective Affiliates, the Parent (or applicable Borrower), without any further action, shall be subrogated to any and all claims that such indemnified party may have relating thereto (other than claims in respect of insurance policies maintained by such indemnified party at its own expense) and such indemnified party shall execute at its own expense such instruments of assignment and conveyance, evidence of claims and payment and such other documents, instruments and agreements as may be necessary to preserve any such claims and otherwise cooperate with the Parent (or applicable Borrower) and give such further assurances as are necessary or advisable to enable the Parent (or applicable Borrower) to vigorously pursue such claims.

9.7 Numbers of Documents. All statements, notices, closing documents, and requests hereunder shall be furnished to the Administrative Agent with sufficient counterparts so that the Administrative Agent may furnish one to each of the Lenders.

9.8 Accounting. Except as provided to the contrary herein, all accounting terms used herein shall be interpreted and all accounting determinations hereunder shall be made in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles, except that any calculation or determination which is to be made on a consolidated basis shall be made for the Parent and all its Subsidiaries, including those Subsidiaries, if any, which are unconsolidated on the Borrower’s audited financial statements. If at any time any change in generally accepted accounting principles would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set out in any Loan Document, and Borrowers shall so request, Administrative Agent, Lenders and Borrowers shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in generally accepted accounting principles (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders); provided that, until so amended, such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in the same manner as it was computed prior to such change.

9.9 Severability of Provisions. Any provision in any Loan Document that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable.

9.10 Nonliability of Lenders. The relationship between each of the Borrowers on the one hand and the Lenders, the LC Issuers, and the Administrative Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any LC Issuer, nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Borrower. None of the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any LC Issuer, or any Lender undertakes any responsibility to any Borrower to review or inform any Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of any Borrower’s business or operations. Each of the Borrowers agrees that none of the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any LC Issuer, or any Lender shall have liability to any Borrower (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by any Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought. None of the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any LC Issuer, or any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and each of the Borrowers hereby waives, releases and agrees not to xxx for, any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages suffered by any Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

9.11 Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees that any confidential information which it may receive from any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement will be used only for purposes of this Agreement and will not be disclosed to any of its directors, officers or employees, or to any other Person except for disclosure (which, in the case of any disclosure pursuant to (d), (e), (f), or (g) shall be accompanied by a written notice that such information is subject to this Section 9.11) (a) to its Affiliates and to other Lenders and their respective Affiliates, (b) to legal counsel, accountants, and other professional advisors to such Lender or to a Transferee, (c) to regulatory officials, (d) to any Person as requested pursuant to or as required by law, regulation, or legal process, (e) to any Person in connection with any legal proceeding to which such Lender is a party, (f) to such Lender’s direct or indirect contractual counterparties in swap agreements or to legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors to such counterparties, and (g) permitted by Section 12.4. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, confidential information shall not include, and each Lender (and each employee, representative or other agent of any Lender) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are or have been provided to such Lender relating to such tax treatment or tax structure; provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning such tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby as well as other information, this sentence shall only apply to such portions of the document or similar item that relate to such tax treatment or tax structure.

9.12 Nonreliance. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking to any margin stock (as defined in Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) for the repayment of the Credit Extensions provided for herein.

9.13 Disclosure. Each of the Borrowers and each Lender hereby (a) acknowledge and agree that Administrative Agent and/or its Affiliates from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or have other relationships with any Borrower and its Affiliates and (b) waive any liability of Administrative Agent or such Affiliate to any Borrower or any Lender, respectively, arising out of resulting from such investments, loans or relationships other than liabilities arising out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or its Affiliates.

9.14 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the USA Patriot Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001))(the “USA Patriot Act"), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identified each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify each Borrower in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

ARTICLE X

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

10.1 Appointment; Nature of Relationship. JPMorgan is hereby appointed by each of the Lenders as its contractual representative (herein referred to as the “Administrative Agent”) hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the contractual representative of such Lender with the rights and duties expressly set out herein and in the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the express conditions contained in this Article X. Notwithstanding the use of the defined term “Administrative Agent,” it is expressly understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not have any fiduciary responsibilities to any Lender by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document and that the Administrative Agent is merely acting as the contractual representative of the Lenders with only those duties as are expressly set out in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In its capacity as the Lenders’ contractual representative, the Administrative Agent (a) does not hereby assume any fiduciary duties to any of the Lenders, (b) is a “representative” of the Lenders within the meaning of Section 9-102 of the Uniform Commercial Code and (c) is acting as an independent contractor, the rights and duties of which are limited to those expressly set out in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders hereby agrees to assert no claim against the Administrative Agent on any agency theory or any other theory of liability for breach of fiduciary duty, all of which claims each Lender hereby waives.

10.2 Powers. The Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent shall have no implied duties to the Lenders, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any action thereunder except any action specifically provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by the Administrative Agent.

10.3 General Immunity. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Borrower, the Lenders or any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith except to the extent such action or inaction is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Person.

10.4 No Responsibility for Loans, Recitals, etc. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify (a) any statement, warranty or representation made in connection with any Loan Document or any borrowing hereunder; (b) the performance or observance of any of the covenants or agreements of any obligor under any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any agreement by an obligor to furnish information directly to each Lender; (c) the satisfaction of any condition specified in Article IV, except receipt of items required to be delivered solely to the Administrative Agent; (d) the existence or possible existence of any Default or Unmatured Default; (e) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness, sufficiency or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other instrument or writing furnished in connection therewith; (f) the value, sufficiency, creation, perfection or priority of any Lien in any collateral security; or (g) the financial condition of any Borrower or any guarantor of any of the Obligations or of any of the Borrower’s or any such guarantor’s respective Subsidiaries. The Administrative Agent shall have no duty to disclose to the Lenders information that is not required to be furnished by any Borrower to the Administrative Agent at such time, but is voluntarily furnished by any Borrower to the Administrative Agent (either in its capacity as Administrative Agent or in its individual capacity).

10.5 Action on Instructions of Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder and under any other Loan Document in accordance with written instructions signed by the Required Lenders, and such instructions and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders. The Lenders hereby acknowledge that the Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to take any discretionary action permitted to be taken by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall be requested in writing to do so by the Required Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

10.6 Employment of Administrative Agents and Counsel. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties as Administrative Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document by or through employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be answerable to the Lenders, except as to money or securities received by it or its authorized agents, for the default or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning the contractual arrangement between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and all matters pertaining to the Administrative Agent’s duties hereunder and under any other Loan Document.

10.7 Reliance on Documents; Counsel. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any Note, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, statement, paper or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and, in respect to legal matters, upon the opinion of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent, which counsel may be employees of the Administrative Agent.

10.8 Administrative Agent’s Reimbursement and Indemnification. The Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent ratably in proportion to their respective Commitments (or, if the Commitments have been terminated, in proportion to their Commitments immediately prior to such termination) (a) for any amounts not reimbursed by the Borrowers for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to reimbursement by the Borrowers under the Loan Documents, (b) for any other expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration and enforcement of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, for any expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with any dispute between the Administrative Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders) and (c) for any liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any other document delivered in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby (including, without limitation, for any such amounts incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in connection with any dispute between the Administrative Agent and any Lender or between two or more of the Lenders), or the enforcement of any of the terms of the Loan Documents or of any such other documents, provided that (i) no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent any of the foregoing is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent and (ii) any indemnification required pursuant to Section 3.5(g) shall, notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10.8, be paid by the relevant Lender in accordance with the provisions thereof. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.8 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

10.9 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Unmatured Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or any Borrower referring to this Agreement describing such Default or Unmatured Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

10.10 Rights as a Lender. In the event the Administrative Agent is a Lender, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder and under any other Loan Document with respect to its Commitment and its Loans as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, at any time when the Administrative Agent is a Lender, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of trust, debt, equity or other transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries in which any Borrower or such Subsidiary is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person. The Administrative Agent, in its individual capacity, is not obligated to remain a Lender.

10.11 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Lender and based on the financial statements prepared by the Parent and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

10.12 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent or, if no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, forty-five days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intention to resign. The Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by written notice received by the Administrative Agent from the Required Lenders, such removal to be effective on the date specified by the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrowers and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent (with the consent of the Parent which shall not be unreasonably withheld). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders within thirty days after the resigning Administrative Agent’s giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning Administrative Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrowers and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the Administrative Agent may at any time without the consent of any Borrower or any Lender, appoint any of its Affiliates which is a commercial bank as a successor Administrative Agent hereunder. If the Administrative Agent has resigned or been removed and no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, the Lenders may perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and the Borrowers shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Lenders. No successor Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such successor Administrative Agent has accepted the appointment. Any such successor Administrative Agent shall be a commercial bank having capital and retained earnings of at least $100,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning or removed Administrative Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent, the resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents. After the effectiveness of the resignation or removal of an Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Administrative Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event that there is a successor to the Administrative Agent by merger, or the Administrative Agent assigns its duties and obligations to an Affiliate pursuant to this Section 10.12, then the term “Prime Rate” as used in this Agreement shall mean the prime rate, base rate or other analogous rate of the new Administrative Agent.

10.13 Administrative Agent and Arranger Fees. The Parent agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Arranger, for their respective accounts, the fees agreed to by any Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Arranger pursuant to the Fee Letter, or as otherwise agreed from time to time.

10.14 Delegation to Affiliates. Each of the Borrowers and the Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent may delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates. Any such Affiliate (and such Affiliate’s directors, officers, agents and employees) which performs duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the same benefits of the indemnification, waiver and other protective provisions to which the Administrative Agent is entitled under Articles IX and X.

10.15 Co-Agents, Documentation Agent, Syndication Agent, etc.. Neither any of the Lenders identified in this Agreement as a “co-agent” nor any Documentation Agent or the Syndication Agent shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to such Lenders as it makes with respect to the Administrative Agent in Section 10.11.

ARTICLE XI

SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS

11.1 Setoff. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if any Borrower becomes insolvent, however evidenced, or any Default occurs, any and all deposits (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender to or for the credit or account of such Borrower may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Obligations owing to such Lender, whether or not the Obligations, or any part thereof, shall then be due.

11.2 Ratable Payments. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Outstanding Credit Exposure (other than payments received pursuant to Section 2.28, 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a portion of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure. If any Lender, whether in connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for its Obligations or such amounts which may be subject to setoff, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral ratably in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.

If an amount to be setoff is to be applied to Indebtedness of any Borrower to a Lender other than Indebtedness comprised of the Outstanding Credit Exposure of such Lender, such amount shall be applied ratably to such other Indebtedness and to the Indebtedness comprised of such Outstanding Credit Exposure.

ARTICLE XII

BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

12.1 Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) none of the Borrowers shall have the right to assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents and (b) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that clause (b) of this Section 12.1 relates only to absolute assignments and does not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, (i) any pledge or assignment by any Lender of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank or (ii) in the case of a Lender which is a fund, any pledge or assignment of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee; provided that no such pledge or assignment creating a security interest shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder unless and until the parties thereto have complied with the provisions of Section 12.3. The Administrative Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such Person complies with Section 12.3; provided that the Administrative Agent may in its discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note to direct payments relating to such Loan or Note to another Person. Any assignee of the rights to any Loan or any Note agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the owner of the rights to any Loan (whether or not a Note has been issued in evidence thereof), shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder or assignee of the rights to such Loan.

12.2 Participations.

12.2.1 Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) participating interests in any Outstanding Credit Exposure of such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the owner of its Outstanding Credit Exposure and the holder of any Note issued to it in evidence thereof for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrowers under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents.

12.2.2 Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents other than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Credit Extension or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which would require consent of all of the Lenders pursuant to the terms of Section 8.2 or of any other Loan Document.

12.2.3 Benefit of Setoff. Each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under the Loan Documents, provided that each Lender shall retain the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant. The Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1, agrees to share with each Lender, any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance with Section 11.2 as if each Participant were a Lender.

12.3 Assignments.

12.3.1 Permitted Assignments. Any Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. Such assignment shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C or in such other form as may be agreed to by the parties thereto. The consent of the Parent and the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuers shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective with respect to an Eligible Assignee which is not a Lender or an Affiliate thereof; provided that if a Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Parent shall not be required. Such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Each such assignment with respect to an Eligible Assignee which is not a Lender or an Affiliate thereof shall (unless each of the Parent and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent) be in an amount not less than the lesser of (a) $5,000,000 or (b) the remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment (calculated as at the date of such assignment) or outstanding Loans (if the applicable Commitment has been terminated).

12.3.2 Effect; Effective Date. Upon (a) delivery to the Administrative Agent of an assignment, together with any consents required by Section 12.3.1, and (b) payment of a $4,000 fee to the Administrative Agent for processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Administrative Agent), such assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified in such assignment. The assignment shall contain a representation by the assignee to the effect that none of the consideration used to make the purchase of the Commitment and Outstanding Credit Exposure under the applicable assignment agreement constitutes “plan assets” as defined under ERISA and that the rights and interests of the assignee in and under the Loan Documents will not be “plan assets” under ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or on behalf of the Lenders and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party hereto, and no further consent or action by the Borrower, the Lenders or the Administrative Agent shall be required to release the transferor Lender with respect to the percentage of the Aggregate Commitment and Outstanding Credit Exposure assigned to such assignee. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this Section 12.3.2, the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and any Borrower shall, if the transferor Lender or the assignee desires that its Loans be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such assignee, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their respective Commitments, as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.

12.4 Dissemination of Information. Each Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Eligible Assignee or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the creditworthiness of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, including without limitation any information contained in any Reports; provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by Section 9.11 of this Agreement.

12.5 Tax Treatment. If any interest in any Loan Document is transferred to any Transferee which is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any State thereof, the transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with the provisions of Section 3.5(d).

For the purposes of this Schedule, the following terms have the following meanings, subject to the final paragraph of this Schedule:
“Level I Status” exists at any date if, on such date, the Parent’s Xxxxx’x Rating is A2 or better or the Parent’s S&P Rating is A or better.
“Level II Status” exists at any date if, on such date, (a) the Parent has not qualified for Level I Status and (ii) the Parent’s Xxxxx’x Rating is A3 or better or the Parent’s S&P Rating is A- or better.
“Level III Status” exists at any date if, on such date, (a) the Parent has not qualified for Level I Status or Level II Status and (ii) the Parent’s Xxxxx’x Rating is Baa1 or better or the Parent’s S&P Rating is BBB+ or better.
“Level IV Status” exists at any date if, on such date, (a) the Parent has not qualified for Level I Status, Level II Status or Level III Status and (ii) the Parent’s Xxxxx’x Rating is Baa2 or better or the Parent’s S&P Rating is BBB or better.
“Level V Status” exists at any date if, on such date, (a) the Parent has not qualified for Level I Status, Level II Status, Level III Status or Level IV Status and (ii) the Parent’s Xxxxx’x Rating is Baa3 or better or the Parent’s S&P Rating is BBB- or better.
“Level VI Status” exists at any date if, on such date, the Parent has not qualified for Level I Status, Level II Status, Level III Status, Level IV Status or Level V Status.
“Xxxxx’x Rating” means, at any time, the rating issued by Xxxxx’x and then in effect with respect to the Parent’s senior unsecured long-term debt securities without third-party credit enhancement.
“S&P Rating” means, at any time, the rating issued by S&P and then in effect with respect to the Parent’s senior unsecured long-term debt securities without third-party credit enhancement.
“Status” means either Level I Status, Level II Status, Level III Status, Level IV Status, Level V Status or Level VI Status.
The Applicable Margin and Applicable Fee Rate shall be determined in accordance with the foregoing table based on the Parent’s Status as determined by the then-current Xxxxx’x and S&P Ratings. The credit rating in effect on any date for the purposes of this Schedule is that in effect at the close of business on such date. If at any time the Parent has neither a Xxxxx’x Rating nor an S&P Rating, then Level VI Status, or such other pricing level as may be agreed by the Parent, the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders, shall exist. If the credit ratings from Xxxxx’x and S&P fall within different categories, the Applicable Margin and Applicable Fee Rate shall be based on the higher of the two ratings unless the lower rating is two or more levels below the higher rating, in which case the rating which is one level above the lower rating will apply. If at any time the Parent has only a single rating from either Xxxxx’x or S&P, then the Applicable Margin and Applicable Fee Rate shall be based on the sole remaining rating.

000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, 00^xx Xxxxx
Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000
Attention: Xxxxx Xxxx
and
Each of the Financial Institutions
Identified on Schedule I hereto
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I have acted as General Counsel for Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”), and as Corporate Counsel for each of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (U.K.) Limited, Cameron GmbH, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (Singapore) Pte. Ltd., Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (Luxembourg) SARL, and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Canada Corp. (each a “Borrowing Subsidiary” and collectively, the “Borrowing Subsidiaries”), in connection with the Credit Agreement dated as of October      , 2005 (the “Credit Agreement”), among the Parent, the Borrowing Subsidiaries, the Lenders from time to time party to the Credit Agreement, Calyon New York Branch, as Syndication Agent, ABN AMRO Bank, N.V., as Documentation Agent, The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, as Documentation Agent, Citibank, N.A., as Documentation Agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (“Agent”) providing for extensions of credit to the Parent and the Borrowing Subsidiaries. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement, and not otherwise defined in this opinion letter, have the meanings given them in the Credit Agreement.
This opinion is delivered to the addressees hereof upon the express instructions and request of the Parent pursuant to Section 4.1.1(d) of the Credit Agreement.
In rendering the opinion expressed below, I have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of such corporate records, agreements, instruments and documents of the Parent and the Borrowing Subsidiaries, and certificates or other statements of public officials and corporate officers, and have made such other investigation of fact and law, as I have deemed necessary in connection with the opinions set forth herein. In my examination, I have assumed the genuineness of all documents submitted to me as originals and the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to me as copies.
Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the comments and exceptions hereinafter set forth, and having regard for such legal considerations I deem relevant, I am of the opinion that:
1. The Parent is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware. The Parent is, to the extent required and appropriate under applicable law, duly qualified, in good standing and duly authorized to conduct business as a foreign corporation in the jurisdictions specified in Schedule II hereto.
2. The Parent has all requisite corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Loan Documents, as defined in the Credit Agreement, to which it is a party, to own its assets and to carry on its business as presently conducted.
3. The execution, delivery and performance of the Parent and each Borrowing Subsidiary of each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party do not (a) violate any provision of law, rule or regulation (including, without limitation, Regulations T, U and X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), or of any order, writ, judgment, decree, determination or award, which is presently in effect having applicability to such company, (b) conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, the certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other charter documents of the Parent or any Borrowing Subsidiary, (c) conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any material indenture, loan or credit agreement or other agreement or instrument for borrowed money known to me to which the Parent or any Borrowing Subsidiary is a party or by which the Parent or any Borrowing Subsidiary or any of any such company’s property is bound, or (d) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien of any nature (except Liens permitted under the Credit Agreement) upon or with respect to any of the properties now owned or hereafter acquired by the Parent or any Borrowing Subsidiary.
4. Each of the Loan Documents has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Parent and any Borrowing Subsidiary party thereto.
5. No authorization, consent, approval, license, qualification or formal exemption from or filing, declaration or registration with, any court, governmental agency or other regulatory authority or any securities exchange is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by the Parent or any Borrowing Subsidiary of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, except such as have been previously obtained and remain in full force and effect.
6. There is no action, suit, proceeding, governmental investigation or arbitration pending or, to my knowledge, threatened against the Parent or any Borrowing Subsidiary or any material property thereof before any court or arbitrator or any governmental or administrative body, agency or official which (a) challenges the validity, or seeks to enjoin the performance of, any Loan Document or (b) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
7. The Parent is not an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
8. The Parent is not a “holding company” or a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company” within the meaning of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.
With respect to the opinion set forth in paragraph 1 above, to the extent appropriate, I have relied exclusively upon certificates provided to me by the secretaries of state (or equivalent officials) of the jurisdictions in which the Parent is incorporated and in which it is qualified to do business.
With respect to the opinion set forth in paragraph 3 above, insofar as a review of the indentures, loan or credit agreements or other agreements or instruments for borrowed money, I have reviewed only those instruments filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to any of the Parent’s Form 10-Q, 10-K or 8-K reports or Registration Statements on Form S-4.
With respect to the opinion set forth in paragraph 6 above, I have made inquiry of those attorneys in the legal department of the Parent who are responsible for managing litigation, have caused a search of the pending litigation to be made in the District Clerk’s office for Xxxxxx County, Texas and the Clerk for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas, and have relied on the Parent’s disclosure of legal proceedings in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
This opinion is limited to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States of America.
This opinion is limited to such laws and facts as they presently exist. I assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion should the present General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or applicable federal laws of the United States of America be changed by legislative action, judicial decision or otherwise.
This opinion letter is furnished solely for your benefit in connection with the transactions referred to in the Credit Agreement and may not, without my permission, be circulated to, or relied upon by, any other Person, except Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx, L.L.P., the Agent, the Lenders, any party that becomes a Participant, Lender or Agent under the Credit Agreement after the date hereof pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, and any of their respective auditors, attorneys, loan participants, and assignees or as required by law or order of a court or other legal process.
Very truly yours,

Attention: Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, General Counsel

Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as special counsel to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Corporation (the “Borrower”) and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (U.K.) Limited, Cameron GmbH, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (Singapore) Pte. Ltd., Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Canada Corp., and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (Luxembourg) SARL (the “Borrowing Subsidiaries” and together with the Borrower, the “Loan Parties”) in connection with the Credit Agreement dated as of October      , 2005 (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrower, the Borrowing Subsidiaries, the Lenders from time to time party to the Credit Agreement, Calyon New York Branch, as Syndication Agent, ABN AMRO Bank N.V., as Documentation Agent, Citibank, N.A., as Documentation Agent, The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, as Documentation Agent, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (“Agent”), providing for extensions of credit to the Loan Parties. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement, and not otherwise defined in this opinion letter, have the meanings given them in the Credit Agreement.
This opinion letter is delivered to the addressees upon the express instruction and request of the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.1.1(e) of the Credit Agreement.
In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have examined the Credit Agreement and the Guaranty (collectively, the “Documents”), and originals or conformed copies of such corporate records, agreements, and instruments of the Loan Parties, certificates of public officials and of officers of such Persons, and such other documents and records, and such matters of law, as we have deemed appropriate. We have relied upon the opinion, dated the date hereof, of Xxxxxxx X. Xxxxxx, General Counsel of the Borrower and Corporate Counsel of each Borrowing Subsidiary, with respect to the organization, existence, good standing, power and capacity of the Borrower and the Borrowing Subsidiaries. We have assumed (i) the genuineness of all signatures of, and the authority of, persons signing the Documents on behalf of parties thereto other than the Loan Parties, (ii) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, (iii) the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, or photostatic copies, (iv) the due authorization, execution, and delivery of the Documents by the parties thereto other than the Loan Parties, and (v) that all documents, books and records made available to us by the Loan Parties are accurate and complete.
Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:
1. The execution, delivery and performance of the Documents to which the Borrower is a party do not violate any provision of Texas law which is customarily applicable to the transactions of the type contemplated in the Documents, and such Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms.
2. The execution, delivery and performance of the Documents to which each Borrowing Subsidiary is a party do not violate any provision of Texas law which is customarily applicable to the transactions of the type contemplated in the Documents, and such Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such Borrowing Subsidiary enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms.
3. No authorization, consent, approval, license, qualification or formal exemption from or filing, declaration or registration with, any court, governmental agency or other regulatory authority or any securities exchange is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by any Loan Party of the Documents to which it is a party, except such as have been previously obtained and remain in full force and effect.
The foregoing opinions are subject to the following assumptions, limitations, and qualifications:
A. The enforceability of the Documents may be subject to: (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally; (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity); and (iii) matters of public policy. Without limiting the foregoing, Texas courts or Federal courts applying Texas law may deny or limit the enforceability of clauses or provisions that purport to: (i) give the right of specific performance; (ii) limit or expand the rights of set-off; or (iii) limit jurisdiction of any courts, establish any exclusive venue or establish evidentiary standards.
B. We express no opinion with respect to (i) the enforceability of provisions in the Documents relating to delay or omission of enforcement of rights or remedies, or waivers of defenses, or waivers of benefits of appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium, redemption, statutes of limitation, or other nonwaivable benefits bestowed by operation of law; or (ii) the lawfulness or enforceability of exculpation clauses, clauses relating to releases of unmatured claims, clauses purporting to waive unmatured rights, severability clauses and similar clauses in the Documents.
C. Provisions of the Documents which permit the Agent or the Lenders to take action or make determinations may be subject to a requirement that such action be taken or such determinations be made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.
We are admitted to practice in the State of Texas and render no opinion as to matters involving the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of Texas and applicable federal laws of the United States of America.
This opinion is limited to such laws and facts as they presently exist. We assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion should the present laws of the State of Texas or applicable federal laws of the United States of America be changed by legislative action, judicial decision or otherwise.
This opinion letter is furnished solely for your benefit in connection with the transactions referred to in the Credit Agreement and may not, without our permission, be circulated to, or relied upon by, any other Person, except the Agent, the Lenders, any party that becomes a Participant, Lender or Agent under the Credit Agreement after the date hereof pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, and any of their respective auditors, attorneys, loan participants, and assignees or as required by law or order of a court or other legal process.

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the Credit Agreement.
2. ASSIGNMENT AND ASSUMPTION.

FORM OF GUARANTY
[See attached.]
46
GUARANTY
This Guaranty is made as of October      , 2005 (“Guaranty”), by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Guarantor”), in favor of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (as hereinafter defined).
R E C I T A L S:
A. The Guarantor, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (U.K.) Limited (the “UK Borrower”), Cameron GmbH (the “German Borrower”), Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. (the “Singapore Borrower”), Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Canada Corp. (the “Canadian Borrower”), Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx (Luxembourg) SARL (the “Luxembourg Borrower”), the financial institutions named therein (the “Lenders”), Calyon New York Branch, as Syndication Agent, ABN AMRO Bank N.V., Citibank, N.A., and The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, as Documentation Agents, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and as LC Issuer, have entered into a certain Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as from time to time modified, supplemented or amended, the “Credit Agreement”). Each capitalized term used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such term by the Credit Agreement.
B. The Guarantor is the parent of the UK Borrower, the German Borrower, the Singapore Borrower, the Canadian Borrower, and the Luxembourg Borrower and will receive substantial and direct benefits from the extensions of credit contemplated by the Credit Agreement and is entering into this Guaranty to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and extend credit to the Borrowing Subsidiaries thereunder.
C. The execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition precedent to the obligation of the Lenders to extend credit to the Borrowing Subsidiaries pursuant to the Credit Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration and as an inducement to the Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and extend credit to the Borrowing Subsidiaries, the Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:
1. The Guarantor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees prompt, full and complete payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of (a) the principal of and interest on the Loans made by the Lenders to, and the Note(s) held by each Lender of, each Borrowing Subsidiary and (b) all other amounts from time to time owing to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent by each Borrowing Subsidiary under the Credit Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation all “Obligations” (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of the Borrowing Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guaranteed Debt”). This is a guaranty of payment, not a guaranty of collection.
2. The Guarantor waives notice of the acceptance of this Guaranty and of the extension or incurrence of the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof. The Guarantor further waives presentment, protest, notice, filing of claims with a court in the event of receivership, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrowing Subsidiary, demand or action on delinquency in respect of the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof, including any right to require the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to xxx any Borrowing Subsidiary, any other guarantor or any other person obligated with respect to the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof, or otherwise to enforce payment thereof against any collateral securing the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof.
3. The Guarantor hereby agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, its obligations hereunder shall be continuing, absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, termination, defense (other than payment in full, subject however to Section 8 hereof), reduction by setoff or counterclaim, or recoupment whatsoever (all of which are hereby expressly waived by it to the fullest extent permitted by law), whether by reason of any claim of any character whatsoever, including, without limitation, any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise. The validity and enforceability of this Guaranty shall not be impaired or affected by any of the following: (a) any extension, modification or renewal of, or indulgence with respect to, or substitution for, the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto at any time; (b) any failure or omission to perfect or maintain any lien on, or preserve rights to, any security or collateral or to enforce any right, power or remedy with respect to the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto, or any collateral securing the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof; (c) any waiver of any right, power or remedy or of any default with respect to the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof or any agreement relating thereto or with respect to any collateral securing the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof; (d) any release, surrender, compromise, settlement, waiver, subordination or modification, with or without consideration, of any collateral securing the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof, any other guaranties with respect to the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof, or any other obligations of any person thereof; (e) the enforceability or validity of the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof or the genuineness, enforceability or validity of any agreement relating thereto or with respect to any collateral securing the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof; (f) the application of payments received from any source to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Debt, any part thereof or amounts which are not covered by this Guaranty even though the Lenders might lawfully have elected to apply such payments to any part or all of the Guaranteed Debt or to amounts which are not covered by this Guaranty; (g) any change of ownership of any Borrowing Subsidiary or the insolvency, bankruptcy or any other change in legal status of any Borrowing Subsidiary; (h) any change in, or the imposition of, any law, decree, regulation or other governmental act which does or might impair, delay or in any way affect the validity, enforceability or the payment when due of the Guaranteed Debt; (i) the failure of any Borrowing Subsidiary to maintain in full force, validity or effect or to obtain or renew when required all governmental and other approvals, licenses or consents required in connection with the Guaranteed Debt or this Guaranty, or to take any other action required in connection with the performance of all obligations pursuant to the Guaranteed Debt or this Guaranty; (j) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which the Guarantor may have at any time against any Borrowing Subsidiary or any other guarantor in connection herewith or with any unrelated transaction; (k) the Lenders’ election, in any case or proceeding instituted under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (l) any borrowing, use of cash collateral, or grant of a security interest by any Borrowing Subsidiary, as debtor in possession, under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; (m) the disallowance of all or any portion of any of the Lenders’ claims for repayment of the Guaranteed Debt under Section 502 or 506 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; or (n) any other fact or circumstance which might otherwise constitute grounds at law or equity for the discharge or release of the Guarantor from its obligations hereunder, all whether or not the Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any act or omission referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) through (n) of this paragraph. It is agreed that the Guarantor’s liability hereunder is independent of any other guaranties or other obligations at any time in effect with respect to the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof and that the Guarantor’s liability hereunder may be enforced regardless of the existence, validity, enforcement or non-enforcement of any such other guaranties or other obligations or any provision of any applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Borrowing Subsidiary of the Guaranteed Debt in the manner agreed upon among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrowing Subsidiaries.
4. Credit may be granted or continued from time to time by the Lenders to any Borrowing Subsidiary without notice to or authorization from the Guarantor regardless of such Borrowing Subsidiary’s financial or other condition at the time of any such grant or continuation. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have an obligation to disclose or discuss with the Guarantor its assessment of the financial condition of any Borrowing Subsidiary.
5. Until the payment in full of the Obligations and termination of all commitments which could give rise to any Obligation, the Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation with respect to the Guaranteed Debt and hereby waives, until such payment occurs, any right to enforce any remedy which the Administrative Agent or the Lenders now have or may hereafter have against any Borrowing Subsidiary, any endorser or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Debt, and the Guarantor hereby waives, until such payment occurs, any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to secure payment of the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof or any other liability of any Borrowing Subsidiary to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders.
6. The Guarantor authorizes the Lenders to take any action or exercise any remedy, in each case, as permitted or available at law or equity, with respect to any collateral from time to time securing the Guaranteed Debt, which the Lenders in their sole discretion shall determine, without notice to the Guarantor. Notwithstanding any reference herein to any collateral securing any of the Guaranteed Debt, it is acknowledged that, on the date hereof, neither the Guarantor nor any of its Subsidiaries has granted, or has any obligation to grant, any security interest in or other lien on any of its property as security for the Guaranteed Debt.
7. In the event the Lenders in their sole discretion elect to give notice of any action with respect to any collateral securing the Guaranteed Debt or any part thereof, 10 days’ written notice mailed to the Guarantor by ordinary mail at the address shown hereon shall be deemed reasonable notice of any matters contained in such notice. The Guarantor consents and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Guarantor or against or in payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Debt.
8. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Debt is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, administration or reorganization of any Borrowing Subsidiary, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantor forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders. The Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent that any Borrowing Subsidiary makes a payment or payments to any of the Lenders on the Guaranteed Debt, or the Administrative Agent or the Lenders receive any proceeds of collateral securing the Guaranteed Debt, which payment or receipt of proceeds or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be returned or repaid to such Borrowing Subsidiary, its estate, trustee, receiver, debtor in possession or any other party, including, without limitation, the Guarantor, under any insolvency or bankruptcy law, state, federal, or foreign law, common law or equitable cause, then to the extent of such payment, return or repayment, the obligation or part thereof which has been paid, reduced or satisfied by such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the date when such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.
9. No delay on the part of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in the exercise of any right, power or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of any right, power or remedy shall preclude any further exercise thereof; nor shall any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver of any of the terms or provisions of this Guaranty be binding upon the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, except as expressly set forth in a writing duly signed and delivered on the Lenders’ behalf by the Administrative Agent. The failure by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders at any time or times hereafter to require strict performance by any Borrowing Subsidiary or the Guarantor of any of the provisions, warranties, terms and conditions contained in any promissory note, security agreement, agreement, guaranty, instrument or document now or at any time or times hereafter executed pursuant to the terms of, or in connection with, the Credit Agreement by any Borrowing Subsidiary or the Guarantor and delivered to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall not waive, affect or diminish any right of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders at any time or times hereafter to demand strict performance thereof, and such right shall not be deemed to have been waived by any act or knowledge of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, their agents, officers or employees, unless such waiver is contained in an instrument in writing duly signed and delivered on the Lenders’ behalf by the Administrative Agent. No waiver by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of any default shall operate as a waiver of any other default or the same default on a future occasion, and no action by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders permitted hereunder shall in any way affect or impair the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ rights or powers, or the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty. Any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction of the amount of any Guaranteed Debt owing by the Borrower to the Lenders shall be conclusive and binding on the Guarantor irrespective of whether the Guarantor was a party to the suit or action in which such determination was made.
10. Subject to the provisions of Section 8 hereof, this Guaranty shall continue in effect until the Credit Agreement has terminated, the Guaranteed Debt has been paid in full and the other conditions of this Guaranty have been satisfied.
11. In addition to and without limitation of any rights, powers or remedies of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under applicable law, any time after maturity of the Guaranteed Debt, whether by acceleration or otherwise, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may, in their sole discretion, with notice after the fact to the Guarantor and regardless of the acceptance of any security or collateral for the payment hereof, appropriate and apply toward the payment of the Guaranteed Debt (a) any indebtedness due or to become due from any of the Lenders to the Guarantor, and (b) any moneys, credits or other property belonging to the Guarantor (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) at any time held by or coming into the possession of any of the Administrative Agent or any Lender whether for deposit or otherwise.
12. The Guarantor agrees to pay all costs, fees and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees of the Administrative Agent or a Lender) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in collecting or enforcing the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty.
13. This Guaranty shall bind the Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and their successors and assigns. All references herein to the Lenders shall for all purposes also include all Participants, subject to the provisions of Section 12.2 of the Credit Agreement. All references herein to a Borrowing Subsidiary shall be deemed to include its respective successors and assigns including, without limitation, a receiver, trustee or debtor in possession of or for such Borrowing Subsidiary.
14. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND THE RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE LENDERS AND THE GUARANTOR DETERMINED, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PROVISIONS, OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS APPLICABLE TO NATIONAL BANKS. EACH OF THE GUARANTOR AND, BY THEIR ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR TEXAS STATE COURT SITTING IN HOUSTON, TEXAS, IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS GUARANTY, AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES THAT ALL CLAIMS IN RESPECT OF SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE HEARD AND DETERMINED IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. THE GUARANTOR WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY AND ALL PROCESS UPON IT, AND CONSENTS THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS BE MADE BY MESSENGER OR BY REGISTERED MAIL DIRECTED TO THE GUARANTOR AT THE ADDRESS INDICATED IN THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE COMPLETED THREE DAYS AFTER THE SAME SHALL HAVE BEEN POSTED AS AFORESAID. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE LENDERS TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR THE LENDERS TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE GUARANTOR OR ITS PROPERTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING BY THE GUARANTOR AGAINST THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR ANY AFFILIATE OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE BROUGHT ONLY IN A COURT IN HOUSTON, TEXAS; PROVIDED, THAT SUCH PROCEEDINGS MAY BE BROUGHT IN OTHER COURTS IF JURISDICTION MAY NOT BE OBTAINED IN A COURT IN HOUSTON, TEXAS.
15. EACH OF THE GUARANTOR AND, BY THEIR ACCEPTANCE HEREOF, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH LENDER, WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO DISPUTES ARISING HEREUNDER.
16. Wherever possible, each provision of this Guaranty shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Guaranty shall be prohibited by or invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Guaranty.
17. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any notice required or desired to be served, given or delivered to any party hereto under this Guaranty shall be in writing by telex, facsimile, U.S. mail or overnight courier and addressed or delivered to such party at its address set forth in the Credit Agreement, or to such other address as the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or the Guarantor designates to the Administrative Agent in writing. All notices by United States mail shall be sent certified mail, return receipt requested. All notices hereunder shall be effective upon delivery or refusal of receipt; provided that any notice transmitted by telex or facsimile shall be deemed given when transmitted (answerback confirmed in the case of telexes).
18. As of the date hereof, both the Guaranteed Debt and the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder are unsecured. The various references herein to security or collateral for the Guaranteed Debt and/or such obligations shall not be deemed to grant any security or collateral to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders and shall be operative only to the extent that after the date hereof such security or collateral is granted (it being understood that neither the Guarantor nor any of the Borrowing Subsidiaries has any obligation to grant such security or collateral).
