Nothing contained in this Amendment shall be construed or interpreted or is intended as a waiver of or limitation on any rights, powers, privileges, rights to indemnification or reimbursement, protections or remedies that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders have or may have under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document (as amended pursuant to this Amendment) on account of any Default or Event of Default.

any acts or omissions of any such Releasee with respect to the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to the lender-borrower relationship evidenced by the Loan Documents. As to each and every Claim released hereunder, Borrower and each other Guarantor hereby represents that it has received the advice of legal counsel with regard to the releases contained herein, and having been so advised, specifically waives the benefit of the provisions of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California which provides as follows:

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

As to each and every Claim released hereunder, Borrower and each other Guarantor also waives the benefit of each other similar provision of applicable federal or state law (including without limitation the laws of the state of New York), if any, pertaining to general releases after having been advised by its legal counsel with respect thereto.

Borrower and each other Guarantor acknowledges that it may hereafter discover facts different from or in addition to those now known or believed to be true with respect to such Claims and agrees that this instrument shall be and remain effective in all respects notwithstanding any such differences or additional facts. Borrower and each other Guarantor understands, acknowledges and agrees that the release set forth above may be pleaded as a full and complete defense and may be used as a basis for an injunction against any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted, prosecuted or attempted in breach of the provisions of such release.

(b) Borrower and each other Guarantor, for itself and on behalf of its successors and assigns, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and attorneys, and any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably, covenants and agrees with and in favor of each Releasee above that it will not xxx (at law, in equity, in any regulatory proceeding or otherwise) any Releasee on the basis of any Claim released, remised and discharged by such Person pursuant to the above release. Borrower and each other Guarantor further agrees that it shall not dispute the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any of its obligations thereunder, or the validity, priority, enforceability or the extent of any Agent’s Lien on any item of Collateral under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any of their respective successors or assigns, or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or attorneys, or any Person acting for or on behalf of, or claiming through it violate the foregoing covenant, such Person, for itself and its successors, assigns and legal representatives, agrees to pay, in addition to such other damages as any Releasee may sustain as a result of such violation, all attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by such Releasee as a result of such violation.

In the event that any LC Reimbursement Obligation is not repaid by the Borrower as provided in this clause (e) (or any such payment by the Borrower is rescinded or set aside for any reason), such Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such failure (and, upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall forward a copy to each Revolving Lender) and, irrespective of whether such notice is given, such LC Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on demand by the Borrower with interest thereon computed (A) from the date on which such LC Reimbursement Obligation arose to the LC Reimbursement Date, at the interest rate applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans and (B) thereafter until payment in full, at the interest rate applicable during such period to past due Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans.

(f) Reimbursement Obligations of the Revolving Lenders.

(i) Upon receipt of the notice described in clause (b) above from the Administrative Agent, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its ratable portion of such Letter of Credit Obligations (as such amount may be increased pursuant to Section 2.20).

(ii) By making any payment described in clause (i) above (other than during the continuation of an Event of Default under subsection 7.01(i) or 7.01(j)), such Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower, which, upon receipt thereof by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall be deemed to have used in whole to repay such LC Reimbursement Obligation. Any such payment that is not deemed a Revolving Loan shall be deemed a funding by such Revolving Lender of its participation in the applicable Letter of Credit and the Letter of Credit Obligation in respect of the related LC Reimbursement Obligations. Such participation shall not otherwise be required to be funded. Following receipt by any Issuing Bank of any payment from any Lender pursuant to this clause (ii) with respect to any portion of any LC Reimbursement Obligation, such Issuing Bank shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of such Lender all amounts received by such Issuing Bank (or to the extent such amounts shall have been received by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent

shall promptly pay to such Lender all amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Issuing Bank) with respect to such portion.

(g) Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders pursuant to clauses (b), (e) and (f) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement irrespective of (A) (i) the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision in any Letter of Credit, any document transferring or purporting to transfer a Letter of Credit, any Loan Document (including the sufficiency of any such instrument), or any modification to any provision of any of the foregoing, (ii) any document presented under a Letter of Credit being forged, fraudulent, invalid, insufficient or inaccurate in any respect or failing to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iii) any loss or delay, including in the transmission of any document, (B) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that any Person (including any Loan Party) may have against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with any Loan Document or any other contractual obligation or transaction, or the existence of any other withholding, abatement or reduction, (C) in the case of the obligations of any Revolving Lender, (i) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 to be satisfied (each of which conditions precedent the Revolving Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) or (ii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Loan Party and (D) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05(g), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any obligation of the Borrower or any Revolving Lender hereunder. No provision hereof shall be deemed to waive or limit the Borrower’s right to seek repayment of any payment of any LC Reimbursement Obligations from the Issuing Bank under the terms of the applicable LC Reimbursement Agreement or applicable law.

Section 2.06 Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, to the Applicable Account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly remitting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower or, in the case of ABR Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(f), to the Issuing Bank specified by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans that are Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(f) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.05(f) to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the

Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance on such assumption, , but shall not be obligated to, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (or, in the case of an amount relating to a Borrowing by the Borrower, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, if greater) and (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon demand of the Administrative Agent therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower agrees to pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand.

(c) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans of any Class, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and to make payments pursuant to Section 9.03(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 9.03(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation, or to make its payment under Section 9.03(c).

Section 2.07 Interest Elections.

(a) The Borrower shall have the option to (i) request that any Revolving Loan or any Term Loan be made as a Eurodollar Loan, (ii) convert at any time all or any part of Revolving Loans or the Term Loans from ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans, (iii) convert any Revolving Loan or any Term Loan, in each case, that is a Eurodollar Loan to an ABR Loan, subject to Section 2.16 if such conversion is made prior to the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (iv) continue all or any portion of any Revolving Loan or any Term Loan, in each case, that are Eurodollar Loans upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Period. Any Term Loan, Revolving Loan or group of Term Loans and/or Revolving Loans having the same proposed Interest Period to be made or continued as, or converted into, a Eurodollar Loan must be in a minimum amount of $500,000. Any such election must be made by the Borrower by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, at least three (3) Business Days prior to (1) the proposed conversion date in the case of a conversion of a Eurodollar Loan to an ABR Loan, (2) the date of any proposed Revolving Loan or Term Loan which is to be a Eurodollar Loan, (3) the end of each Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Loans to be continued as such, or (4) the date on which the Borrower wishes to convert any ABR Loan to a Eurodollar Loan for an Interest Period designated by the Borrower in such election. Except as provided clause (g) of this Section 2.07, if no election is received with respect to a Eurodollar Loan by 12:00 p.m., New York City time on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the end of the Interest Period with respect thereto, that Eurodollar Loan shall be converted to an ABR Loan at the end of its Interest

Period. The Borrower must make such election by notice to the Administrative Agent in writing, by fax, overnight courier, or by electronic transmission (or by telephone, to be confirmed in writing on such day). In the case of any conversion or continuation, such election must be made pursuant to a written notice (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) in the form of Exhibit Jan Interest Election Request. No Loan shall be made, converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Loan, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have determined not to make or continue any Loan as a Eurodollar Loan as a result thereof.

(b) [reserved];

(d) Upon receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuationan Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender thereof. In addition, the Administrative Agent will, with reasonable promptness, notify the Borrower and the applicable Lenders of each determination of Eurodollar Rate; provided that any failure to do so shall not relieve the Borrower of any liability hereunder or provide the basis for any claim against the Administrative Agent. All conversions and continuations shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans held by each Lender with respect to which the notice was given;

(e) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.03:

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

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

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

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

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

(f) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the applicable Class of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(g) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Eurodollar Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period applicable thereto, such Eurodollar Borrowing shall (i) in the case of a Term Borrowing, be continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing, as the case may be, for an additional Interest Period of one month or (ii) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing of Revolving Loans, be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default under clause (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing with respect to Holdings or the Borrower, or if any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of a Majority in Interest of Lenders of any Term Facility, has notified the Borrower of the election to give effect to this sentence on account of such other Event of Default, then, in each such case, so long as such Event of Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing of such Class may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing of such Class shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.08 Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the Term Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Closing Date and (ii) the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date.

(b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $250,000 and not less than $250,000, unless such amount represents all of the remaining Commitments of such Class, (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the aggregate Revolving Exposure would exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments of all Lenders and (iii) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Revolving Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit exceeds the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments of all Lenders, the Letter of Credit Sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.

(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the applicable Class of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section may state that such notice is conditioned upon the consummation of an acquisition

or sale transaction or upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent for the Borrower, shall maintain a register (the “Register”) in its usual practice in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Term Loan and Revolving Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Term Lender and each Revolving Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Term Lenders and the Revolving Lenders and each Term Lender’s and each Revolving Lenders share thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans (including any notes evidencing such Loans and, in the case of Revolving Loans, the corresponding obligations to participate in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swingline Loans), the right, title and interest of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks and their assignees in and to such Loans, as the case may be, shall be transferable subject to Section 9.04 only upon notation of such transfer in the Register and no assignment thereof shall be effective until recorded therein. This Section 2.09(c) and Section 9.04 shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

(d) [Reserved].

(e) [Reserved].

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

paragraphs (b) and (c) of this Section, the accounts maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraphsparagraph (c) of this Section shall control.

(g) The Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders and the Issuing Banks shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement. Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall be available for access by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, or such Lender or such Issuing Bank at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No Lender or Issuing Bank shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in the Register other than information with respect to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent.

(h) Any Lender may request through the Administrative Agent that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form provided by the Administrative Agent and approved by the Borrower.

The Auction Agent will promptly provide each relevant Term Lender with a copy of such Specified Discount Prepayment Notice and a form of the Specified Discount Prepayment Response to be completed and returned by each such Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the relevant Term Lenders (the “Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date”).

(1) Each relevant Term Lender receiving such offer shall notify the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date whether or not it agrees to accept a prepayment of any of its relevant then outstanding Term Loans at the Specified Discount and, if so (such accepting Term Lender, a “Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender”), the amount and the tranches of such Lender’s Term Loans to be prepaid at such offered discount. Each acceptance of a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment by a Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender shall be irrevocable. Any Term Lender whose Specified Discount Prepayment Response is not received by the Auction Agent by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept the Borrower Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment.

(2) If there is at least one Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender, the Borrower will make prepayment of outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this paragraph (B) to each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender in accordance with the respective outstanding amount and tranches of Term Loans specified in such Lender’s Specified Discount Prepayment Response given pursuant to subsection (2); provided that, if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans accepted for prepayment by all Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders exceeds the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount, such prepayment shall be made pro-rata among the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts accepted to be prepaid by each such Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Specified Discount Proration”). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within three (3) Business Days following the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, notify (i) the Borrower of the respective Term Lenders’ responses to such offer, the Discounted

Prepayment Closing Date and the aggregate principal amount of the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (ii) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Closing Date, and the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Term Loans to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date and (iii) each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender of the Specified Discount Proration, if any, and confirmation of the principal amount, tranche and Type of Loans of such Lender to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to the Borrower shall be due and payable by the Borrower on the Discounted Prepayment Closing Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

(C) Subject to the first proviso to subsection (A) above, the Borrower may from time to time solicit Discount Range Prepayment Offers by providing the Auction Agent with three (3) Business Days’ notice in the form of a Discount Range Prepayment Notice; provided that (i) any such solicitation shall be extended, at the sole discretion of the Borrower, to each Term Lender and/or each Lender with respect to any Class of Loans on an individual tranche basis, (ii) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate principal amount of the relevant Term Loans (the “Discount Range Prepayment Amount”), the tranche or tranches of Term Loans subject to such offer and the maximum and minimum percentage discounts to par (the “Discount Range”) of the principal amount of such Term Loans with respect to each relevant tranche of Term Loans willing to be prepaid by the Borrower (it being understood that different Discount Ranges and/or Discount Range Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to different tranches of Term Loans and, in such an event, each such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section), (iii) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000 in excess thereof and (iv) each such solicitation by the Borrower shall remain outstanding through the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each relevant Term Lender with a copy of such Discount Range Prepayment Notice and a form of the Discount Range Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding relevant Term Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the relevant Term Lenders (the “Discount Range Prepayment Response Date”). Each relevant Term Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer shall be irrevocable and shall specify a discount to par within the Discount Range (the “Submitted Discount”) at which such Term Lender is willing to allow prepayment of any or all of its then outstanding Term Loans of the applicable tranche or tranches and the maximum aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Lender’s Term Loans (the “Submitted Amount”) such Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Submitted Discount. Any Term Lender whose Discount Range

Prepayment Offer is not received by the Auction Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount to their par value within the Discount Range.

(1) The Auction Agent shall review all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received on or before the applicable Discount Range Prepayment Response Date and shall determine (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the Applicable Discount and Term Loans to be prepaid at such Applicable Discount in accordance with this subsection (C).

Each Lender that has submitted a Discount Range Prepayment Offer to accept prepayment at a discount to par that is larger than or equal to the Applicable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Submitted Amount (subject to any required proration pursuant to the following subsection (3)) at the Applicable Discount (each such Lender, a “Participating Lender”).

(2) If there is at least one Participating Lender, the Borrower will prepay the respective outstanding Term Loans of each Participating Lender in the aggregate principal amount and of the tranches specified in such Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer at the Applicable Discount; provided that if the Submitted Amount by all Participating Lenders offered at a discount to par greater than the Applicable Discount exceeds the DiscountedDiscount Range Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the relevant Term Loans for those Participating Lenders whose Submitted Discount is a discount to par greater than or equal to the Applicable Discount (the “Identified Participating Lenders”) shall be made pro-rata among the Identified Participating Lenders in accordance with the Submitted Amount of each such Identified Participating Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Discount Range Proration”). The Auction Agent shall promptly, and in any case within five (5) Business Days following the Discount Range

Prepayment Response Date, notify (I) the Borrower of the respective Term Lenders’ responses to such solicitation, the Discounted Prepayment Closing Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate principal amount of the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Closing Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate principal amount and tranches of Term Loans to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (III) each Participating Lender of the aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, and (z) if applicable, each Identified Participating Lender of the Discount Range Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to the Borrower shall be due and payable by the Borrower on the Discounted Prepayment Closing Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

(D) Subject to the first proviso to subsection (A) above, the Borrower may from time to time solicit Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers by providing the Auction Agent with three (3) Business Days’ notice in the form of a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such solicitation shall be extended, at the sole discretion of the Borrower, to each Term Lender and/or each Lender with respect to any Class of Term Loans on an individual tranche basis, (II) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate amount of the Term Loans (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount”) and the tranche or tranches of Term Loans the Borrower is willing to prepay at a discount (it being understood that different Solicited DiscountDiscounted Prepayment Amounts may be offered with respect to different tranches of Term Loans and, in such an event, each such offer will be treated as a separate offer pursuant to the terms of this Section), (III) the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000 in excess thereof and (IV) each such solicitation by the Borrower shall remain outstanding through the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. The Auction Agent will promptly provide each relevant Term Lender with a copy of such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice and a form of the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding Term Lender to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the relevant Term Lenders (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date”). Each Term Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer shall (x) be irrevocable, (y) remain outstanding until the Acceptance Date, and (z) specify both a discount to par (the “Offered Discount”) at which such Term Lender is willing to allow prepayment of its then outstanding Term Loan and the maximum aggregate principal amount and tranches of such Term Loans (the “Offered Amount”) such Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Offered Discount. Any Term Lender whose Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer is not received by the

Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount.

(1) The Auction Agent shall promptly provide the Borrower with a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received on or before the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. The Borrower shall review all such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers and select the smallest of the Offered Discounts specified by the relevant responding Term Lenders in the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers that is acceptable to the Borrower (the “Acceptable Discount”), if any. If the Borrower elects to accept any Offered Discount as the Acceptable Discount, then as soon as practicable after the determination of the Acceptable Discount, but in no event later than by the third Business Day after the date of receipt by the Borrower from the Auction Agent of a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers pursuant to the first sentence of this subsection (1) (the “Acceptance Date”), the Borrower shall submit an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice to the Auction Agent setting forth the Acceptable Discount. If the Auction Agent shall fail to receive an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice from the Borrower by the Acceptance Date, the Borrower shall be deemed to have rejected all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers.

(2) Based upon the Acceptable Discount and the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, within three (3) Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice (the “Discounted Prepayment Determination Date”), the Auction Agent will determine (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Term Loans (the “Acceptable Prepayment Amount”) to be prepaid by the Borrower at the Acceptable Discount in accordance with this Section 2.11(a)(ii)(D). If the Borrower elects to accept any Acceptable Discount, then the Borrower agrees to accept all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, in the order from largest Offered Discount to smallest Offered Discount, up to and including the Acceptable Discount. Each Lender that has submitted a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer with an Offered Discount that is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Offered Amount (subject to any required pro-rata reduction pursuant to the following sentence) at the Acceptable Discount (each such Lender, a “Qualifying Lender”). The Borrower will prepay outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this subsection (D) to each Qualifying Lender in the aggregate principal amount and of the tranches specified in such Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer at the Acceptable Discount; provided that if

the aggregate Offered Amount by all Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount exceeds the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the Term Loans for those Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount (the “Identified Qualifying Lenders”) shall be made pro-rata among the Identified Qualifying Lenders in accordance with the Offered Amount of each such Identified Qualifying Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Solicited Discount Proration”). On or prior to the Discounted Prepayment Determination Date, the Auction Agent shall promptly notify (I) the Borrower of the Discounted Prepayment Closing Date and Acceptable Prepayment Amount comprising the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Closing Date, the Acceptable Discount, and the Acceptable Prepayment Amount of all Term Loans and the tranches to be prepaid to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (III) each Qualifying Lender of the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Acceptable Discount on such date, and (IV) if applicable, each Identified Qualifying Lender of the Solicited Discount Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to the Borrower shall be due and payable by the Borrower on the Discounted Prepayment Closing Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

(E) In connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the Borrower and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Auction Agent may require as a condition to any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the payment of customary fees and expenses from the Borrower in connection therewith as may be agreed between the Auction Agent and the Borrower.

(F) If any Term Loan is prepaid in accordance with paragraphs (B) through (D) above, the Borrower shall prepay such Term Loans on the Discounted Prepayment Closing Date. The Borrower shall make such prepayment to the Auction Agent, for the account of the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Discounted Prepayment Closing Date and all such prepayments shall be applied to the remaining principal installments of the relevant tranche of Term Loans on a pro rata basis across such installments. The Term Loans so prepaid shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so prepaid up to, but not including, the

Discounted Prepayment Closing Date. Each prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11(a)(ii) shall be paid to the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable. The aggregate principal amount of the tranches and installments of the relevant Term Loans outstanding shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the tranches of Term Loans prepaid on the Discounted Prepayment Closing Date in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment.

(G) To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Term Loan Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures consistent, with the provisions in this Section 2.11(a)(ii), established by the Auction Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as reasonably agreed by the Borrower.

(H) Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 2.11(a)(ii), each notice or other communication required to be delivered or otherwise provided to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) shall be deemed to have been given upon Auction Agent’s (or its delegate’s) actual receipt during normal business hours of such notice or communication; provided that any notice or communication actually received outside of normal business hours shall be deemed to have been given as of the opening of business on the next Business Day.

(I) The Borrower and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Auction Agent may perform any and all of its duties under this Section 2.11(a)(ii) by itself or through any Affiliate of the Auction Agent and expressly consents to any such delegation of duties by the Auction Agent to such Affiliate and the performance of such delegated duties by such Affiliate. The exculpatory provisions pursuant to this Agreement shall apply to each Affiliate of the Auction Agent and its respective activities in connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment provided for in this Section 2.11(a)(ii) as well as activities of the Auction Agent.

(J) The Borrower shall have the right, by written notice to the Auction Agent, to revoke in full (but not in part) its offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and rescind the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Notice, Discount Range Prepayment Notice or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice therefor at its discretion at any time on or prior to the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, Discount Range Prepayment Response Date or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, as applicable (and if such offer is revoked pursuant to the preceding clauses, any failure by the Borrower to make any prepayment to a Term Lender, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.11(a)(ii) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under Section 7.01 or otherwise).

(K) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Borrower shall not be permitted to consummate any prepayment transaction described in this Section 2.11(a)(ii) if after giving effect thereto, the Affiliated Lenders would hold a greater aggregate principal amount of Term Loans than is permitted by Section 9.04(f).

(L) Each Lender participating in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such prepayment, (1) the Borrower then may have, and later may come into possession of, Excluded Information, (2) such Lender has independently, and without reliance on Holdings, the Borrower, or any of their respective subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any other Agent Party, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such prepayment, notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information, (3) none of Holdings, the Borrower or their respective subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any other Agent Party shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against Holdings, the Borrower and their respective subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent and any other Agent Parties, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information and (4) that the Excluded Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.

(b) In the event and on each occasion that the aggregate Revolving Exposure of all Revolving Lenders exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments of all Revolving Lenders, the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Borrowings or Swingline Borrowings (or, in each case, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Collateral Agent in an aggregate amount equal to such excess).[Reserved].

(c) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Borrower shall, within five Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received (or, in the case of a Prepayment Event described in clause (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event,” on the date of such Prepayment Event), prepay theexcept as otherwise provided in Section 5.02 of the Intercreditor Agreement, (1) first, prepay the Super Senior Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of such Net Proceeds, until repaid in full, and (2) next, prepay the First Lien Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of such Net Proceeds; remaining after the prepayments made in accordance with clause (1), until repaid in full; provided that, in either case, if the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries invest (or commit to invest) the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof) within 12 months after receipt of such Net Proceeds in assets useful in the business of the Borrower and the other Restricted Subsidiaries (including any acquisitions permitted under Section 6.04), then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of such Net Proceeds in respect of such event (or the applicable portion of such Net Proceeds, if applicable) except to the extent of any such Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so invested (or committed to be invested) by the end of such 12‑month period (or if committed to be so invested within such 12 month period, have not been so invested within 18 months after receipt thereof), at which time a

prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to such Net Proceeds that have not been so invested (or committed to be invested).

(d) Following the end of each fiscal year of Holdings, commencing with the fiscal year ending nearest December 31, 20162019, the Borrower shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 5.02 of the Intercreditor Agreement, (1) first, prepay the Term Super Senior Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year, until repaid in full, and (2) next, prepay the First Lien Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such amount remaining after the prepayments made in accordance with clause (1), until repaid in full; provided that, in each case, such amount shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of prepayments of (x) Term Loans (and, to the extent the Revolving Commitments are reduced in a corresponding amount pursuant to Section 2.08, Revolving Loans) made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) (in the case of Section 2.11(a)(ii), to the extent of the cash consideration paid by the Borrower in respect of such prepayments) during such fiscal year (excluding all such prepayments funded with the proceeds of other Indebtedness) and (y) Super Senior Loans made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) of the Super Senior Credit Agreement (in the case of such Section 2.11(a), to the extent of the cash consideration paid by the Borrower in respect of such prepayments) during such fiscal year (excluding all such prepayments funded with the proceeds of other Indebtedness). Each prepayment pursuant to this paragraph shall be made on or before the date that is five Business Days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 with respect to the fiscal year for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated.

(e) Within five (5) Business Days of the consummation of a Qualified IPO, the Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans in an amount not less than $75,000,000.[Reserved].

(f) Prior to any optional prepayment of Borrowings pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(ii), the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (g) of this Section. In the event of any mandatory prepayment of Term Borrowings made at a time when Term Borrowings of more than one Class remain outstanding, the Borrower shall select Term Borrowings to be prepaid so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated between Term Borrowings (and, to the extent provided in the Refinancing Amendment for any Class of Other Term Loans, the Borrowings of such Class) pro rata based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Borrowings of each such Class; provided that any Term Lender (and, to the extent provided in the Refinancing Amendment for any Class of Other Term Loans, any Lender that holds Other Term Loans of such Class) may elect, by notice to the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) at least two Business Days prior to the prepayment date, to decline all (but not part) of any prepayment of its Term Loans or Other Term Loans of any such Class pursuant to this Section (other than an optional prepayment pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section, which may not be declined), in which case the aggregate amount of the prepayment that would have been applied to prepay Term Loans or Other Term Loans of any such Class but was so declined shall be retained by the Borrower. Optional prepayments of Term Borrowings shall be allocated among Term Borrowings as directed by the Borrower. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding provisions of this paragraph of the Type of Borrowing of any Class, the Administrative Agent shall make such

designation in its reasonable discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section 2.16; provided that, in connection with any mandatory prepayments by the Borrower of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or (d), such prepayments shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans; provided that if no Lenders exercise the right to waive a given mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11(f), then, with respect to such mandatory prepayment, the amount of such mandatory prepayment shall be applied first to Term Loans that are ABR Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Term Loans that are Eurodollar Loans in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amounts received from any Loan Party shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Loan Party.

(g) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery or facsimile) of any optional prepayment and, to the extent practicable, any mandatory prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that a notice of optional prepayment may state that such notice is conditional upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or the occurrence of some other identifiable event or condition, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied; provided further that, any notice of mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or (d) must be delivered not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13.

(h) Notwithstanding any provision under Section 2.11 to the contrary, (i) without the consent of the Super Senior Administrative Agent, no Loan Party shall be entitled to make a voluntary prepayment or redemption of the Term Loans prior to the time when the Super Senior Secured Obligations have been repaid in full in immediately available funds in accordance with the provisions of the Super Senior Credit Agreement, and (ii) if the Borrower determines in good faith that the repatriation by any Restricted Subsidiary that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is organized (an

“Other Jurisdiction Subsidiary”), of any amounts required to mandatorily prepay the Loans pursuant to SectionsSection 2.11(c) or (d) above would result in material and adverse tax consequences (including a deemed dividend pursuant to Section 956 of the Internal Revenue Code), taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation, or that any such funds are prohibited or delayed by any applicable local requirements of law from being repatriated, in either case, if all or portion of the funds required to make a mandatory prepayment were up-streamed or transferred from a foreign subsidiary as a distribution or dividend (such amount, a “Restricted Amount”), as reasonably determined by the Borrower, the amount that any such Restricted Subsidiary shall be required to mandatorily prepay pursuant to SectionsSection 2.11(c) or (d) above, as applicable, shall be reduced by the Restricted Amount until such time as it may repatriate to the Borrower the Restricted Amount without incurring such material and adverse tax liability or violating such local requirement of law; provided that (A) Holdings, the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Restricted Amount to be repatriated without incurring such material tax liability or violating any local requirements of law and (B) if and to the extent that the repatriation of any Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow from the relevant Other Jurisdiction Subsidiary would no longer have an adverse tax consequence or violate local requirements of law at any time during the one year period immediately following the date on which the applicable mandatory repayment was required to be made, an amount equal to the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, as applicable, not previously applied pursuant to the immediately preceding clause shall be promptly applied to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or (d) as otherwise required above (without regard to this clause (g)). The non-application of any prepayment amount as a consequence of this clause (g) will not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute an Event of Default, and, upon expiration of the one year period in clause (B) in the proviso above, such amounts shall be available (A) first, to repay local foreign indebtedness, if any and (B) thereafter, for working capital purposes of Holdings’ Foreign Subsidiaries (so long as not required to be prepaid in accordance with this Section 2.11).

Section 2.12 Fees.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender (reduced by the amount of Letters of Credit issued and outstanding) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate. In all cases, accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date. All commitment fees payable for the account of any Revolving Lender shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees, a specific Class of Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender in such Class (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose).[Reserved].

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent in U.S. Dollars for the account of each Revolving Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Revolving Loans on the daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements), during the period from and including the Closing Date to and including the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure; which participation fees shall be payable on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank, on demand, in U.S. Dollars (A) such reasonable fees, without duplication of fees otherwise payable hereunder (including all per annum fees), charges and expenses of such Issuing Bank in respect of the issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment, transfer and payment of such Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to the application and related documentation under which such Letter of Credit is issued; and (B) a fronting fee of 0.125%. All participation fees and other fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).[Reserved].

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay on the Closing Date to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of each Term Lender party to this Agreement as a Term Lender on the Closing Date as fee compensation for the funding of such Lender’s Term Loans, an upfront fee in an amount equal to 1.50% of the stated principal amount of the Term Loans made on the Closing Date. Such fees shall be payable to each Term Lender out of the proceeds of the such Term Lender’s Term Loans as and when funded on the Closing Date and shall be treated (and reported) by the Borrower and Term Lenders as a reduction in issue price of the Term Loans for U.S. federal, and applicable state and local income tax purposes. All such closing fees payable under this Section 2.12(c) will be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Closing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.[Reserved].

(d) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Co-Documentation Agents for their own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed in writing upon between such parties.

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

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Section 2.22, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any amounts to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.12.

(g) No provision of any Fee Letter may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, and no other fee letter may be executed in connection herewith, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Required Lenders.

Section 2.13 Interest.

(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Loan Party hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall, to the extent permitted under applicable law, bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other overdue amount, 2.00% per annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section; provided that no amount shall be payable pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender; provided further that no amounts shall accrue pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) on any overdue amount, reimbursement obligation in respect of any LC Disbursement or other amount payable to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of any Class of Revolving Loans, upon termination of such Class of Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the Closing Date of such conversion.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

Section 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest. If at least two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for

ascertaining the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for Loans in Dollars for such Interest Period; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Lenders holding a Majority in Interest of the outstanding Term Loans and Revolving Commitments that the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate applicable to such Loans for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice (which may be telephonic) thereof to the Borrower, the Term Lenders and the Revolving Lenders as promptly as practicable and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing of such Class to, or continuation of any Borrowing of such Class as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and such Borrowing shall be continued as an ABR Borrowing, and (ii) any Borrowing Request for a Eurodollar Borrowing of such Class shall be treated as a request for an ABR Borrowing.

Section 2.15 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

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

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

(iii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost, or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement, Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing, or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), to increase the cost to such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest, or otherwise), then, from time to time upon request of such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such

Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs, or expenses incurred, or reduction suffered.

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

(c) A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its holding company in reasonable detail, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or expenses incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs, expenses or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs, expenses or reductions is retroactive, then the 180‑day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, no Lender or Issuing Bank shall demand compensation for any increased cost or reduction pursuant to this Section 2.15 if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender or Issuing Bank to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements.

Section 2.16 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue, or prepay any Revolving Loan or Term Loan for acceptance and purchase on

the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(g) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan for acceptance and purchase other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19 or Section 9.02(c), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall, after receipt of a written request by any Lender affected by any such event (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 2.16, each Term Lender and each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Loan made by it at the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the applicable interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Loan was in fact so funded. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt of such demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 2.16 will not apply to losses, costs or expenses resulting from Taxes, as to which Section 2.17 shall govern.

Section 2.17 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower, withholding agent or other payor shall be required by applicable Requirements of Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent) to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the amount payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all required deductions for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes have been made (including deductions applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.17), the Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes have been made, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Requirements of Law.

(c) Without duplication of any additional amounts paid under Section 2.17(a) or (b), the Borrower jointly and severally shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document or activities related thereto, (including

Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender with a copy to the Administrative Agent, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c)(ii) relating to the maintenance of the Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(f) Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with any properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by law, or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, any withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under the Loan Documents. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such documentation expired, obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the applicable withholding agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to do so. Unless the applicable withholding agent has received forms or other documents satisfactory to it indicating that

100

payments under any Loan Document to or for a Lender are not subject to withholding tax or are subject to Tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Borrower, Administrative Agent or other applicable withholding agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding clause (f), the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(f)((i), (ii)(A) through (ii)(D) and (iii) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i) Each Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) as a Lender two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding.

(ii) Each Lender that is a Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement as a Lender (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party and such other documentation as required under the Code,

(B) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑-8ECI (or any successor forms),

(C) in the case of a Foreign Lender, (x) two properly completed and duly signed certificates, substantially in the form of Exhibit W‑-1 claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code (any such certificate a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”), and (y) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms),

(D) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, two properly completed and duly signed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Foreign Lender, accompanied by a Form W‑-8ECI, W‑-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a United States Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit W‑-3 or Exhibit W‑-4, Form W‑-9, Form W‑-8IMY (or other successor forms) or any other required information from each beneficial owner (provided that, if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming

101

the portfolio interest exemption, a United States Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit W‑-2 may be provided by such Foreign Lender on behalf of such partner(s)), or

(E) any other form prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii) If a payment made to any Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b), as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the relevant Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under such Sections and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for the purposes of this paragraph, “FATCA” shall include any amendments to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (f), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(g) [Reserved].

(h) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees promptly to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. The Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall, at the Borrower’s request, provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other

102

evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant taxing authority (provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender may delete any information therein that the Administrative Agent or such Lender deems confidential). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the Administrative Agent or such Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to Taxes which it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other person.

(i) The agreements in this Section 2.17 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(j) For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “Lender” shall include any Issuing Bank and the term “Requirements of Law’” shall include FATCA.

Section 2.18 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it under any Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16, or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, recoupment, or setoff. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to such account as may be specified by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to any Issuing Bank shall be made as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Except as otherwise provided herein, if any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document of principal or interest in respect of any Loan (or of any breakage indemnity in respect of any Loan) shall be made in U.S. Dollars, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. If the

103

Administrative Agent determines at any time that any amount received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement must be returned to any Loan Party or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to the Administrative Agent on demand any portion of such amount the Administrative Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as the Administrative Agent is required to pay to the Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

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

(d) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the amount of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amounts of principal of and accrued interest on their Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant or (C) any disproportionate payment obtained by a Lender of any Class as a result of the extension by Lenders of the maturity date or expiration date of some but not all Loans or Revolving Commitments of that Class or any increase in the Applicable Rate in respect of Loans of Lenders that have consented to any such extension. The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of

104

setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, distribute to the Lenders or Issuing Banks, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of applicable Lenders or Issuing Banks, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(f) The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments in respect of the First Lien Obligations and any proceeds of Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and agrees that, notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, (i) all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent after any or all of the First Lien Obligations have been accelerated, (ii) all proceeds received by the Administrative Agent as a result of the exercise of the Administrative Agent’s remedies under the Security Documents and (iii) upon direction of the Required Lenders, all payments in respect of any First Lien Obligations received by the Administrative Agent after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, shall in each case be applied as follows:

first, to pay interest on and then principal of any portion of the Revolving Loans that the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or the Borrower[reserved];

second, to pay Secured Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to any Agent;

third, to pay Secured Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks;

fourth, to pay Secured Obligations in respect of all accrued unpaid interest and fees then due to any Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks;

fifth, to pay or prepay principal amounts on the Loans, the LC Reimbursement Obligations, the Secured Swap Obligations, and the Cash Management Obligations and to cash collateralize all outstanding Letters of Credit at 103% of the face value of each such Letter of Credit;

sixth, to pay any other amounts constituting Secured Obligations; and

105

seventh, any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to the Borrower or any other Person lawfully entitled thereto.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category, (ii) each of the Lenders or other Persons entitled to payment shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses fourth, fifth and sixth above and (iii) proceeds of Collateral of any Loan Party shall only be applied to the Secured Obligations of such Loan Party.

(g) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.18, no amounts received from any Loan Party, or from proceeds of Collateral of any Loan Party, shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Loan Party.

Section 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or any event gives rise to the operation of Section 2.23, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or its participation in any Letter of Credit affected by such event, or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches, or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or Section 2.17 or mitigate the applicability of Section 2.23, as the case may be, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material and would not be inconsistent with the internal policies of, or otherwise be disadvantageous in any material economic, legal, or regulatory respect to, such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation.

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15 or gives notice under Section 2.23, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (A) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable (and if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned and delegated, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consents, in each case, shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and unreimbursed participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued

106

but unpaid interest thereon, accrued but unpaid fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the assignee or the Borrower, (C) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid (unless waived) to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b)(ii) and (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15, or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17 or a notice given under Section 2.23, such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender under paragraph (a) above), the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto.

Section 2.20 Incremental Credit Extensions[Reserved.

(a) At any time and from time to time after the date that is the earlier of (x) the date on which the Joint Lead Arrangers shall have advised the Borrower that the primary syndication of the Facilities has been completed and (y) the date that is 60 days following the Closing Date, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly make available to each of the Lenders), request to effect (i) prior to the Revolving Maturity Date, one or more increases in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments (each such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”) from Additional Revolving Lenders and (ii) one or more new term loan commitments which may be of the same Class as existing Term Loans (a “Term Commitment Increase”) or a separate Class of new term loans (collectively with any Term Commitment Increase, the “New Term Commitments” and the New Term Commitments, collectively with any Revolving Commitment Increase, the “Incremental Commitments”), in each case, from one or more Additional Term Lenders; provided that (A) no Lender will be required to become an Additional Revolving Lender or Additional Term Lender and no Lender with respect to any Revolving Commitment Increase shall be an Affiliated Lender, (B) upon the effectiveness of any such Incremental Commitments, (1) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall result therefrom and (2) the representations and warranties of each Loan Party set forth in the Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date (provided, that (x) to the extent such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, they shall be true and correct in all matter respects as of such earlier date and (y) any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct in all respects), (C) any such Incremental Commitments shall be denominated in U.S. Dollars, (D) the aggregate amount of all such Incremental Commitments shall not exceed $100,000,000 plus the maximum amount of Incremental Commitments such that the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio on a Pro Forma Basis (assuming a borrowing of the maximum amount of Loans available hereunder after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments, assuming that any Indebtedness under Incremental Commitments is senior indebtedness secured on pari passu basis with the Collateral and excluding, for the purposes of clause (b) of the definition of Consolidated Net Debt, the cash proceeds from the borrowing of the proposed Incremental Commitments) would not exceed 4.75

107

to 1.00; (E) the maturity date of any term loans incurred pursuant to any New Term Commitment shall not be earlier than Latest Maturity Date then effect with respect to any Class of Term Loans outstanding at such time and the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any such term loans incurred pursuant to any New Term Commitment shall not be shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Class of Term Loans outstanding at such time, (F) any loans incurred pursuant to any Incremental Commitments shall not be secured by any assets other than Collateral (and, subject to subclause (J) below, if so secured, shall be secured on a pari passu basis) and not be guaranteed by Persons other than those Persons Guaranteeing the corresponding Class of Loans, (G) subject to subclause (J) below, the interest rate margins and, subject to subclause (E), the amortization schedule for any term loans incurred pursuant to any New Term Commitment shall be determined by the Borrower and the Additional Term Lenders with the applicable New Term Commitments; provided that in the event that the All‑in Yield for any term loans pursuant to any New Term Commitments is higher than the All‑in Yield applicable to any Class of Term Loans by more than 50 basis points, then the interest rate margins for Term Loans in each such Class shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the All‑in Yield with respect to each such Class of Term Loans is equal to the All‑in Yield for such term loans incurred pursuant to such New Term Commitments minus 50 basis points, provided that, if any term loan incurred pursuant to any New Term Commitment (an “Incremental Term Facility”) includes an interest rate floor greater than the interest rate floor applicable to the existing Term Facility, such increased amount shall be equated to interest margin for purposes of determining whether an increase to the applicable interest margin under the existing Term Facility shall be required, to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor in the then-existing Term Facility would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case the interest rate floor (but not the interest rate margin) applicable to the then-existing Term Facility shall be increased by such increased amount (the margin and floor increases described this clause (G) being referred to as “MFN Protection”); (H) any Incremental Term Facility Amendment entered into after the Closing Date shall be on the terms and pursuant to documentation to be determined by the Borrower and the Additional Term Lenders with the applicable Term Commitment Increases; provided that to the extent such terms and documentation are not substantially identical to this Agreement (except to the extent permitted by subclauses (B), (E), (F), (G), (H) and (J) of this clause (a)), they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Additional Term Lenders and shall be no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) to the Additional Term Lenders than to the relevant Lenders under the Term Loans then outstanding (except for covenants or other provisions applicable exclusively to periods commencing after the Latest Maturity Date); provided further that, any such Additional Term Lenders will participate on a pro rata basis or on a less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) (or, if junior in right of payment or security, shall be on a junior basis with respect thereto) in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments (other than scheduled amortization payments) of the Term Loans; (I) no Affiliated Lenders shall hold New Term Loan Commitments if, after giving effect to the fundings thereunder, Affiliated Lenders would hold a greater percentage of Term Loans than is otherwise permitted under Section 9.04(f), (J) any term loans incurred under New Term Commitments may either (I) rank junior in right of security to the Term Loans then outstanding, in which case such term loans shall be subject to customary intercreditor arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or (II) be unsecured, in which case the relevant New Term Commitments, as applicable, shall be established as a separate facility to

108

which the preceding subclause (G) shall not apply, and (K) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.20 or in any other provision of any Loan Document, if the proceeds of any term loans made pursuant to any Incremental Commitment are intended to finance a Permitted Acquisition or any other Investment that is permitted hereunder and the Lenders or Additional Term Lenders providing such Incremental Commitment so agree, the availability thereof may be subject to customary “SunGard” or “certain funds” conditionality. Each Revolving Commitment Increase denominated in U.S. Dollars shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof unless such amount represents all the remaining availability under the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Commitments set forth above. Each New Term Commitment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $2,500,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof unless such amount represents all the remaining availability under the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Commitments set forth above. Furthermore, the Borrower will use the proceeds of any Incremental Commitment for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.

(b) (i) Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount of the relevant Revolving Commitment Increase or New Term Commitment.

(ii) Commitments in respect of any Revolving Commitment Increase shall become Revolving Commitments (or in the case of any Revolving Commitment Increase to be provided after the Closing Date by an existing Revolving Lender, an increase in such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment) under this Agreement with, except as provided in Section 2.20(a), the exact same terms as the applicable Class of Revolving Loans pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Revolving Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, such Additional Revolving Lender and the Administrative Agent. Revolving Commitment Increases may be provided, subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld), by any existing Lender other than an Affiliated Lender (it being understood that no existing Lender shall have the right to participate in any Revolving Commitment Increase or, unless it agrees, be obligated to provide any Revolving Commitment Increase) or by any other Additional Revolving Lender. An Incremental Revolving Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section. The effectiveness of any Incremental Revolving Facility Amendment shall, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Additional Revolving Lenders, be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental Revolving Facility Closing Date”) of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Borrowing” in Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the Incremental Revolving Facility Closing Date) and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law,

109

change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent).

(iii) Commitments in respect of any Term Commitment Increase shall become Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Term Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, such Additional Term Lender and the Administrative Agent. Term Commitment Increases may be provided, subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld), by any existing Lender (it being understood that no existing Lender shall have any right to participate in any Term Commitment Increase or, unless it agrees, be obligated to provide any Term Commitment Increases) or by any other Additional Term Lender. An Incremental Term Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section. The effectiveness of any Incremental Term Facility Amendment shall, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Additional Term Lenders, be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental Term Facility Closing Date”) of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Borrowing” in Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the Incremental Term Facility Closing Date) and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent).

(c) (i) Upon each Revolving Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section, each Revolving Lender with respect to the Class of Revolving Commitments to be increased immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Additional Revolving Lender providing a portion of such Revolving Commitment Increase (each a “Revolving Commitment Increase Lender”), and each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit of the applicable Class such that, after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase and each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding participations hereunder in Letters of Credit of the applicable Class held by each Revolving Lender with respect to such Class (including each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) will equal such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage with respect to such Class. Any Revolving Loans outstanding immediately prior to the date of such Revolving Commitment Increase that are Eurodollar Loans will (except to the extent otherwise repaid in accordance herewith) continue to be held by, and all interest thereon will continue to accrue for the accounts of, the Revolving Lenders holding such Loans immediately prior to the date of such Revolving Commitment Increase, in each case until the last day of the then-current Interest Period applicable to any such Loan, at which time it will be repaid or refinanced with new Revolving Loans made pursuant to Section 2.01 in accordance

110

with the Applicable Percentages of the Revolving Lenders of the applicable Class after giving effect to the Revolving Commitment Increase; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, each Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will promptly purchase (for cash at face value) assignments of portions of such outstanding Revolving Loans of the applicable Class of other Revolving Lenders so that, after giving effect thereto, all Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Loans are held by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their then-current Applicable Percentages. Any such assignments shall be effected in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.04; provided that the parties hereto hereby consent to such assignments and the minimum assignment amounts and processing and recordation fee set forth in Section 9.04(b)(ii) shall not apply thereto. If there are any ABR Revolving Loans outstanding on the date of such Revolving Commitment Increase, such Loans shall either be prepaid by the Borrower on such date or refinanced on such date (subject to satisfaction of applicable borrowing conditions) with Revolving Loans of the same Class made on such date by the Revolving Lenders (including the Revolving Commitment Increase Lenders) in accordance with their Applicable Percentages. In order to effect any such refinancing, (i) each Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will make ABR Revolving Loans to the Borrower by transferring funds to the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the aggregate outstanding amount of such Loans of such Type and Class times a percentage obtained by dividing the amount of such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender’s Revolving Commitment Increase by the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments (after giving effect to the Revolving Commitment Increase on such date) of such Class and (ii) such funds will be applied to the prepayment of outstanding ABR Revolving Loans, as applicable, held by the Revolving Lenders of the applicable Class other than the Revolving Commitment Increase Lenders, and transferred by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders of the applicable Class other than the Revolving Commitment Increase Lenders, in such amounts so that, after giving effect thereto, all ABR Revolving Loans will be held by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their then-current Applicable Percentages. On the date of such Revolving Commitment Increase, the Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the accounts of the Revolving Lenders receiving such prepayments, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amounts of their Revolving Loans being prepaid. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(ii) Upon each Term Commitment Increase pursuant to this Section, each Additional Term Lender with shall make an additional term loan to the Borrower, in the applicable currency, in a principal amount equal to such Lender’s Term Commitment Increase. Any such term loan shall be a “Term Loan” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(d) This Section 2.20 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or Section 9.02 to the contrary].

Section 2.21 Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness; Maturity Extension.

(a) At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Term Lender, Indebtedness in respect of a renewal, replacement, or

111

refinancing of all or any portion of the Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (a) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans) in the form of Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments, in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment satisfying the Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt Requirements. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.01 as in effect on the Closing Date (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). Each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.21(a) shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $25,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof unless such amount represents the total outstanding amount of the Refinanced Debt. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Term Loans and/or Other Term Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment or Permitted Refinancing Notes may allow for the ability to participate on a pro rata basis or on a less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) (or, if junior in right of payment or security, shall be on a junior basis with respect thereto) in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments (other than scheduled amortization payments) of Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this sentence will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section. The Borrower shall have the right to require the applicable Lenders to assign their Term Loans to the investors providing any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness pursuant to any Refinancing Amendment.

(b) At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may obtain Indebtedness in respect of a renewal, replacement or refinancing of all or any portion of the Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (i) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans) in the form of Permitted Refinancing Notes satisfying the Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt Requirements.

(c)

(i) The Borrower may from time to time, pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.21(c), agree with one or more Lenders holding Loans and Commitments of any Class (“Existing Class”) to extend the maturity date and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.21(c) (each such modification, an “Extension”) pursuant to one or more written offers (each an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the

112

Borrower to all Lenders under any Class that is proposed to be extended under this Section 2.21(c), in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the relative principal amounts of the outstanding Loans of each Lender in such Class) and on the same terms to each such Lender. In connection with each Extension, the Borrower will provide notification to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Lenders of the applicable Class), no later than 30 days prior to the maturity of the applicable Class or Classes to be extended of the requested new maturity date for the extended Loans of each such Class (each an “Extended Maturity Date”) and the due date for Lender responses. In connection with any Extension, each Lender of the applicable Class wishing to participate in such Extension shall, prior to such due date, provide Administrative Agent with a written notice thereof in a form reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Any Lender that does not respond to an Extension Offer by the applicable due date shall be deemed to have rejected such Extension. In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be reasonably established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.21(c).

(ii) After giving effect to any Extension, the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments so extended shall cease to be a part of the Class that they were a part of immediately prior to the Extension and shall be a new Class hereunder; provided that in the case of any Extension Amendment relating to Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans, (I) all borrowings and all prepayments of Revolving Loans shall continue to be made on a ratable basis among all Revolving Lenders, based on the relative amounts of their Revolving Commitments, until the repayment of the Revolving Loans attributable to the non-extended Revolving Commitments on the Revolving Maturity Date, (II) the allocation of the participation exposure with respect to any then-existing or subsequently issued or made Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan as between the Revolving Commitments of such new “Class” and the remaining Revolving Commitments shall be made on a ratable basis in accordance with the relative amounts thereof until Revolving Maturity Date relating to such non-extended Revolving Commitments has occurred, (III) no termination of Extended Revolving Commitments and no repayment of Extended Revolving Loans accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in Extended Revolving Commitments shall be permitted unless such termination or repayment (and corresponding reduction) is accompanied by at least a pro rata termination or permanent repayment (and corresponding pro rata permanent reduction), as applicable, of the Existing Revolving Loans and Existing Revolving Commitments (or all Existing Revolving Commitments of such Class and related Existing Revolving Loans shall have otherwise been terminated and repaid in full) and (IV) with respect to Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans, the Revolving Maturity Date may not be extended without the prior written consent of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender. If the Revolving Exposure exceeds the Revolving Commitment as a result of the occurrence of a Revolving Maturity Date with respect to any Class of Revolving Commitments while an extended Class of Revolving Commitments remains outstanding, Borrower shall make such payments as are necessary in order to eliminate such excess on such Revolving Maturity Date.

113

(iii) The consummation and effectiveness of each Extension shall be subject to the following:

(A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time any Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders or at the time of such Extension;

(B) the Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, of any Lender extended pursuant to any Extension (as applicable, “Extended Term Loans” or “Extended Revolving Commitments”) shall have the same terms as the Class of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to the related Extension Amendment (as applicable, “Existing Term Loans” or “Existing Revolving Commitments”); except (A) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments of a Class to be extended pursuant to an Extension shall be later than the Maturity Datematurity date of the Class of Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to the related Extension Amendment, and the weighted average life to maturity of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments of a Class to be extended pursuant to an Extension shall be no shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the Class of Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to the related Extension Amendment; (B) the all‑in pricing (including, without limitation, margins, fees and premiums) with respect to the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, may be higher or lower than the all‑in pricing (including, without limitation, margins, fees and premiums) for the Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable; (C) the revolving credit commitment fee rate with respect to the Extended Revolving Commitments may be higher or lower than the revolving credit commitment fee rate for Existing Revolving Commitments, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (C) [reserved]; (D) no repayment of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, shall be permitted unless such repayment is accompanied by an at least pro rata repayment of all earlier maturing Loans (including previously extended Loans) (or all earlier maturing Loans (including previously extended Loans) shall otherwise be or have been terminated and repaid in full); (E) the Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments may contain a “most favored nation” provision for the benefit of Lenders holding Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable; and (F) the other terms and conditions applicable to Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments may be terms different than those with respect to the Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as applicable, so long as such terms and conditions only apply after the Latest Maturity Date; provided further, each Extension Amendment may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable extending Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to give effect to the provisions of this

114

Section 2.21(c), including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the extending Lenders as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder; provided, however, no Extension Amendment may provide for any Class of Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that does not also secure the Existing Term Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments;

(C) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing, and all written communications by the Borrower generally directed to the applicable Lenders under the applicable Class in connection therewith shall be in form and substance consistent with the foregoing and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent; and

(D) a minimum amount in respect of such Extension (to be determined in Borrower’s discretion and specified in the relevant Extension Offer, but in no event less than $5,000,000, unless another amount is agreed to by Administrative Agent) shall be satisfied.

(iv) For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the provisions of Section 2.18 and Section 9.02 will not apply to Extensions of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to Extension Offers made pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.21(c), including to any payment of interest or fees in respect of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, that have been extended pursuant to an Extension at a rate or rates different from those paid or payable in respect of Loans of any other Class, in each case as is set forth in the relevant Extension Offer.

(v) No Lender who rejects any request for an Extension shall be deemed a Non-Consenting Lender for purposes of Section 9.02(c).

(vi) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments (collectively, “Extension Amendments”) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary in order to establish new Classes of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, created pursuant to an Extension, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.21(c). Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extension, (i) the appropriate Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any First Lien Mortgage (or any other Security Document that the Administrative Agent reasonably requests to be amended to reflect an Extension) that has a maturity date prior to the latest Extended Maturity Date so that such maturity date is extended to the then latest Extended Maturity Date (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent) and (ii) the Borrower shall deliver board resolutions, secretary’s certificates, officer’s certificates and other documents as shall reasonably be requested by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith and a legal opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

115

(vii) Promptly following the consummation and effectiveness of any Extension, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly furnish to each Lender) written notice setting forth the Extended Maturity Date and material economic terms of the Extension and the aggregate principal amount of each class of Loans and Commitments after giving effect to the Extension and attaching a copy of the fully executed Extension Amendment.

(d) This Section 2.21 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or Section 9.02 to the contrary.

Section 2.22 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”, the definition of “Required Revolving Lender” and Section 9.02.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees, or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, in the case of a Revolving Lender, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to any applicable Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender; third, to cash collateralize the Defaulting Lender Fronting Exposure of any applicable Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender[reserved]; third, [reserved]; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, in the case of a Revolving Lender, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement[reserved]; sixth, [reserved]; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that

116

Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements and such Lender is a Defaulting Lender under clause (a) of the definition thereof, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, the relevant non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied pursuant to Section 2.05(f); provided further that any payment for the account of a Defaulting Lender that is a Foreign Lender shall not be applied to the account of a Lender that is a U.S. Person. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.05(a) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive or accrue any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.12(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in Section 2.12(b).

(b) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting Exposure. If any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing:

(i) the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders of the applicable Revolving Facility in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent that such recollection does not cause any Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitments;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (A) first, prepay the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure that has not been reallocated and (B) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Banks the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure with respect to the applicable Revolving Facility that has not been reallocated in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05 for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay participation fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure with respect to the applicable Revolving Facility for so long as such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;[Reserved].

(iv) if any portion of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.12(a) and 2.12(b) shall be adjusted to give effect to such reallocation;

117

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all commitment fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment utilized by such LC Exposure) and participation fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks of each applicable Class (and allocated among them ratably based on the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Bank) until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(vi) no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(b) [Reserved].

(c) Limitations on Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan, and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with Holdings and the Borrower or such Revolving Lender satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.[Reserved].

(d) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the Closing Date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash Collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to Section 2.22(b)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender[Reserved].

Section 2.23 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Adjusted

118

Eurodollar Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans or to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon three (3) Business Days’ notice from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans, to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans, and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing promptly upon becoming aware that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate. Upon any such prepayment, or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

payments required thereby, without the written consent of each of the Lenders of each adversely affected Class, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (vi) change the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders”, “Required Revolving Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be), (vii) release all or substantially all the value of the Guarantees under any Guarantee Agreement (taking into account the value of the Borrower) (except as expressly provided in such Guarantee Agreement) without the written consent of each Lender, (viii) release all or substantially all the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents, without the written consent of each Lender (except as expressly provided in the Security Documents), (ix) change any provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of any Class differently than those holding Loans of any other Class (including any amendments to any payment waterfall provisions), without the written consent of each Lender of each affected Class or (x) amend or waive the rights of the Term Lenders to decline mandatory prepayments as provided in Section 2.11 or the rights of any Additional Lenders of any Class, as provided in the applicable Refinancing Amendment, to decline mandatory prepayments of Term Loans of such Class, or any other provisions of any Loan Document with respect to the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement or the Collateral in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights of the Lenders holding Term Loans of any Class differently than those holding Loans of any other Class, without the written consent of a Majority in Interest of the Term Lenders or Additional Lenders of such Class, as applicable; provided further that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (B) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by Holdings, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency jointly identified by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent as such so long as, in each case, the Lenders shall have received at least five Business Days’ prior written notice thereof and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent, Holdings and the Borrower (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Lenders prior to such inclusion and (b) any guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by Foreign Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement (if any) may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local law

177

or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities or defects, or (iii) to cause such guarantees, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(c) In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all directly and adversely affected Lenders, if the consent of the Required Lenders (and, to the extent any Proposed Change requires the consent of Lenders holding Loans of any Class pursuant to clause (iv) or (ix) of paragraph (b) of this Section, the consent of a Majority in Interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of such Class) to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in paragraph (b) of this Section being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Administrative Agent, either (x) require such Non-Consenting Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) or (y) with the express written consent of the Required Lenders, terminate the Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lender; provided, in each case, that (a) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (b) such Non-Consenting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding par principal amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder from the Eligible Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) (c) if the consent, amendment or waiver in question contemplates a Repricing Transaction in respect of any Term Loans held by such Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender the Repricing Premium (if any) as if the outstanding Term Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender were prepaid or repriced in their entirety in connection with a Repricing Transaction on the date of the consummation of such assignment and, (d) unless waived, the Borrower or such Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b).

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the Revolving Commitments, Term Loans and Revolving Exposure of any Lender that is at the time a Defaulting Lender shall not have any voting or approval rights under the Loan Documents and shall be excluded in determining whether all Lenders (or all Lenders of a Class), all affected Lenders (or all affected Lenders of a Class), a Majority in Interest of Lenders of any Class or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 9.02); provided that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of

178

all Lenders or each affected Lender that affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

(e) [Reserved.]

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, each Affiliated Lender (other than an Affiliated Debt Fund) hereby agrees that, if a proceeding under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law shall be commenced by or against the Borrower or any other Loan Party at a time when such Lender is an Affiliated Lender, such Affiliated Lender irrevocably (x) waives its right to take any step or action (whether directly or indirectly) in such proceeding to object to, impede, or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by the Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third party to which the Administrative Agent has consented with respect to any disposition of assets by the Borrower or any equity or debt financing to be made to the Borrower), including, without limitation, the filing of any pleading by the Administrative Agent) in (or with respect to any matters related to) the proceeding so long as the Administrative Agent is not taking any action to treat such Affiliated Lender’s Loans in a manner that is less favorable to such Affiliated Lender in any material respect than the proposed treatment of similar First Lien Obligations held by other Lenders (including, without limitation, objecting to any debtor-in-possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition, compromise or plan of reorganization) and (y) authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent to vote, on behalf of such Affiliated Lender, with respect to the Loans held by such Affiliated Lender in the same proportion as those Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders shall have voted, unless the Administrative Agent instructs such Affiliated Lender to vote in such manner, in which case such Affiliated Lender shall vote with respect to the Loans held by it in such manner; provided that such Affiliated Lender shall be entitled to vote in accordance with its sole discretion (and not in accordance with the foregoing) in connection with any plan of reorganization to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat any Secured Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a manner that is less favorable in any material respect to such Affiliated Lender than the proposed treatment of similar Secured Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliates of the Borrower.

(g) Notwithstanding Section 9.02(b) or the proviso thereto, (A) any amendment, modification or waiver regarding the Financial Performance Covenant (including the defined terms used in such covenant as they pertain to compliance with Section 6.11) shall require only the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders, Holdings and the Borrower and (B) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision, and, in each case, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

179

(h) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower and the lenders providing the relevant Replacement Revolving Facility to permit the refinancing or replacement of the Revolving Facility in its entirety with a replacement revolving facility (a “Replacement Revolving Facility”) (any such amendment, a “Replacement Amendment”); provided that:

(A) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Revolving Facility shall not exceed the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Facility, plus the amount of accrued interest and premium thereon, any committed but undrawn amounts and underwriting discounts, fees, commissions and expenses associated therewith,

(B) no Replacement Revolving Facility shall have a final maturity date (or require commitment reductions) prior to the Revolving Maturity Date at the time of such refinancing,

(C) the Replacement Revolving Facility shall be pari passu or junior in right of payment and pari passu or junior in right of security with the remaining portion of the relevant Revolving Facility (provided that if pari passu or junior as to payment or Collateral, such Replacement Revolving Facility shall be subject to an intercreditor agreement on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower and may be, at the option of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, documented in a separate agreement or agreements, subject to clause I below, on then-current market terms), or be unsecured,

(D) if any such Replacement Revolving Facility is secured, it shall not be secured by any assets other than the Collateral,

(E) if any Replacement Revolving Facility is guaranteed, it shall not be guaranteed by any Person other than one or more Loan Parties,

(F) such Replacement Revolving Facility shall have pricing (including interest, fees and premiums) and optional prepayment and redemption terms as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Facility,

(G) no Default under Sections 7.01(a), 7.01(b), 7.01(i) or 7.01(j) or Event of Default shall exist immediately prior to or after giving effect to the effectiveness of such replacement, and

(H) the other terms and conditions of such Replacement Revolving Facility (excluding pricing, interest, fees, rate floors, premiums, optional prepayment or redemption terms, security and maturity date, subject to preceding clauses (B) through (F)) shall be substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) to the lenders providing such Replacement Revolving Facility than those applicable to the

180

Revolving Facility (other than any covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date (in each case, as of the date of incurrence of such Replacement Revolving Facility)) or such Replacement Revolving Facility shall be on then-current market terms for such type of Indebtedness, and the Revolving Facility commitments shall be terminated, all Loans outstanding thereunder and all fees in connection therewith shall be paid in full, on the date such Replacement Revolving Facility is issued, incurred or obtained;

provided, further, that any no Affiliated Lender (other than Affiliated Debt Funds) may provide any Replacement Revolving Facility.

Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Replacement Amendment, this Agreement shall be amended by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the lenders providing the relevant Replacement Revolving Facility to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Replacement Revolving Facility, incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the loans and commitments subject thereto as a separate “tranche” and “Class” of Revolving Loans and/or Revolving Commitments hereunder). The Borrower shall extend the opportunity to refinance or replace the then outstanding Revolving Loans and/or Revolving Commitments under the applicable Class to all applicable Lenders on a pro rata basis pursuant to a Replacement Amendment and in accordance with this Section 9.02(h). It is understood that any Lender approached to provide any Replacement Revolving Facility may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Replacement Revolving Facility.

Section 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) The Borrower shall pay, if the ClosingAmendment Effective Date occurs, (i) all reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Agents, the Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates (without duplication), including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of (x) Xxxxxx & WatkinsTroutman Xxxxxxx LLP, counsel to the Agents, Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, and (y) to the extent reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be necessary, one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction (exclusive of any reasonably necessary special counsel) and, in the case of an actual or reasonably perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel for all such affected parties taken as a whole, in each case for the Agents, the Issuing Banks, the Joint Bookrunners and the Joint Lead Arrangers in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, and the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof, (ii) all reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by each Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder[reserved] and (iii) all reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agents, each Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, in connection with the enforcement or protection of any rights or remedies (A) in connection with the Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws), including its rights under

182

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, or any Lender or any Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, or such Lender or such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, or such Lender or such Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the Revolving Exposure, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at such time. The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph (c) are subject to the last sentence of Section 2.02(a) (which shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Lenders’ obligations under this paragraph (c)).

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor; provided, however, that any Indemnitee shall promptly refund an indemnification payment received hereunder to the extent that there is a final judicial determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such payment pursuant to this Section 9.03.

Section 9.04 Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the

Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c)(i) of this Section.

(including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and any other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that directly and adversely affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the obligations and limitations of such Sections, including Section 2.17(f) (it being understood that the documentation requirement under Section 2.17(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.19 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or Section 2.17, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the request and expense of the Borrower, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.19 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(d) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103‑1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

187

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other “central” bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(f) Any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Affiliated Lender on a non-pro rata basis (A) through Dutch auctions open to all applicable Lenders on a pro rata basis or (B) through open market purchases, in each case with respect to clauses (A) and (B), without the consent of the Administrative Agent, subject to the following limitations:

(i) Affiliated Lenders (other than Affiliated Debt Funds) will not receive information provided solely to Lenders by the Administrative Agent or any Lender and will not be permitted to attend or participate in meetings attended solely by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, other than the right to receive notices of Borrowings, notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II;

(ii) for purposes of any amendment, waiver or modification of any Loan Document (including such modifications pursuant to Section 9.02), or, subject to Section 9.02(f), any plan of reorganization pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, that in either case does not require the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender or does not adversely affect such Affiliated Lender in any material respect as compared to other Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders, Affiliated Lenders will be deemed to have voted in respect to its Loans in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Affiliated

188

Lenders voting on such matter; and each Affiliated Lender hereby acknowledges, agrees and consents that if, for any reason, its vote to accept or reject any plan pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code is not deemed to have been so voted, then such vote will be (x) deemed not to be in good faith and (y) “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code such that the vote is not counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code; provided that subject to clause (g) below, Affiliated Debt Funds will not be subject to such voting limitations and will be entitled to vote as any other Lender;

(iii) (a) Affiliated Lenders may not purchase Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments by assignment, including pursuant to this Section 9.04, (b) proceeds of Revolving Loans may not be used to fund a purchase pursuant to this Section 9.04(f), and (c) in the case of a purchase by Holdings, the Borrower, or a Restricted Subsidiary, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the acceptance of bids for any Dutch auction or at the time of entry into a binding agreement for an open market purchase;

(iv) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of any Class held at any one time by Affiliated Lenders (other than Affiliated Debt Funds) may not exceed 20% of the original outstanding principal amount of all Term Loans of such Class;

(v) Each Lender participating in any assignment to Affiliated Lenders pursuant to this clause (f), acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such assignment, (1) the Affiliated Lenders then may have, and later may come into possession of, Excluded Information, (2) such Lender has independently, and without reliance on the Affiliated Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Agent Party, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such assignment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information, (3) none of the Affiliated Lenders or any of their Subsidiaries, Holdings, the Borrower or their respective Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any other Agent Party, as the case may be, shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against the Affiliated Lenders, the Administrative Agent and any other Agent Parties, as the case may be, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information and (4) that the Excluded Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders;

(vi) Affiliated Lenders will not be permitted to vote on matters requiring a Required Lender vote, and the Term Loans held by Affiliated Lenders shall be disregarded in determining (x) other Lenders’ commitment percentages or (y) matters submitted to Lenders for consideration that do not require the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender or do not adversely affect such Affiliated Lender in any material respect as compared to other Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders; provided that the commitments of any Affiliated Lender shall not be increased, the Interest Payment Dates and the dates of any scheduled amortization payments (including at maturity) owed to

189

any Affiliated Lender hereunder will not be extended and the amounts owning to any Affiliated Lender hereunder will not be reduced without the consent of such Affiliated Lender; provided further that no amendment, modification, waiver or consent shall affect any Affiliated Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) in a manner that is disproportionate to the effect on any Lender of the same Class or that would deprive such Affiliated Lender of its pro rata share of any payments with respect to such Class of Loans to which it is entitled; provided further that subject to clause (g) below, Affiliated Debt Funds will not be subject to such voting limitations and will be entitled to vote as any other Lender;

(vii) any Term Loans acquired by any Affiliated Lender (other than an Affiliated Debt Fund or Holdings, Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary) may (but shall not be required to) be contributed to Holdings, the Borrower, or any of their subsidiaries for purposes of cancellation of such Indebtedness (it being understood that such Term Loans shall be retired and cancelled immediately upon such contribution) and any Term Loans acquired by Holdings, Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall be immediately contributed to Borrower (if necessary) and shall be immediately retired and cancelled upon such acquisition (and, if necessary, contribution); provided that, in each case, upon such cancellation of Indebtedness, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans shall be deemed reduced, as of the date of such contribution, by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so contributed and cancelled, and each principal repayment installment with respect to the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall be reduced in direct order of maturity by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans so contributed and cancelled. For the avoidance of any doubt, no assignment pursuant to this Section 9.04(f) shall be to a natural person.

(g) Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.02 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, in each case, (x) all Term Loans held by any Affiliated Lenders that are not Affiliated Debt Funds shall be deemed to have voted in respect to its Loans in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders voting on such matter for all purposes of calculating whether the Required Lenders have taken any actions and (y) all Term Loans, Revolving Commitments and Revolving Exposure held by Affiliated Debt Funds may not account for more than 49.9% of the Term Loans, Revolving Commitments and Revolving Exposure of consenting Lenders included in determining whether the Required Lenders have consented to any action (or inaction) pursuant to Section 9.02.

Section 9.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to any Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit,

190

regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 2.15, Section 2.16, Section 2.17, and Section 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, in the event that, in connection with the refinancing or repayment in full of the credit facilities provided for herein, an Issuing Bank shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a written consent to the release of the Revolving Lenders from their obligations hereunder with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (whether as a result of the obligations of the Borrower (and any other account party) in respect of such Letter of Credit having been collateralized in full by a deposit of cash with such Issuing Bank or being supported by a letter of credit that names such Issuing Bank as the beneficiary thereunder, or otherwise), then from and after such time such Letter of Credit shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have no participations in such Letter of Credit, and no obligations with respect thereto, under Section 2.05.

Section 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to any Agent or the syndication of the Loans and Commitments constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Agents and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 9.07 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.07, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor

191

Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or Issuing Banks, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender, any such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower then due and owing under this Agreement held by such Lender or Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although (i) such obligations may be contingent or unmatured and (ii) such obligations are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or Issuing Bank different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.22 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Secured Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The applicable Lender and applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such setoff and application; provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this Section. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates may have. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amounts setoff from any Loan Party shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Loan Party.

(a) A Subsidiary Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by any Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Loan Party shall be automatically released, upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary (including pursuant to a permitted merger with a Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party); provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise. Upon any sale or other transfer by any Loan Party (other than to Holdings, the Borrower, or any Subsidiary Loan Party) of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest created under any Security Document in any Collateral in accordance with Section 9.02(b), the security interest in such Collateral created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released.

In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release so long as the Borrower or applicable Loan Party shall have provided the Administrative Agent such certifications or documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request in order to demonstrate compliance with this Agreement.

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

(c) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender irrevocably authorizes the Collateral Agent to provide any release, termination or subordination or evidence of release, termination or subordination contemplated by this Section 9.14 or, with respect to Foreign Subsidiaries, by the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement”. Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release, terminate, or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Loan Party from its obligations under any Loan Document, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Document and this Section 9.14.

Section 9.15 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each of the Borrower and Holdings acknowledges and agrees that (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agents, the Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent, the Lenders, and the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, Holdings and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agents, the Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent, the Lenders and the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, on the other hand, (B) each of the Borrower and Holdings has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) each of the Borrower and Holdings is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated

196

hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Agents, the Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent, the Lenders, and the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower, Holdings, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person and (B) none of the Agents, the Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent, the Lenders, and the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners has any obligation to the Borrower, Holdings, or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Agents, the Documentation Agents, the Lenders, and the Joint Lead Arrangers, and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower, Holdings and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Agents, the Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent, the Lenders, and the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower, Holdings or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Borrower and Holdings hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against any Agent, the Documentation Agents, the Syndication Agent, the Lenders, and the Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

Section 9.16 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of

197

interest throughout the contemplated term of the obligations hereunder.

Section 9.17 Currency Indemnity. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, it becomes necessary to convert into a particular currency (the “Judgment Currency”) any amount due under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document in any currency other than the Judgment Currency (the “Currency Due”), then conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. For this purpose “rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Administrative Agent is able, on the relevant date, to purchase the Currency Due with the Judgment Currency in accordance with its normal practice at its head office. In the event that there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Business Day before the day on which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent of the amount due, the Borrower will, on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent, pay such additional amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by the Administrative Agent on such date is the amount in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of receipt by the Administrative Agent is the amount then due under this Agreement or such other Loan Document in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due whichthat the Administrative Agent is so able to purchase is less than the amount of the Currency Due originally due to it, the Borrower shall indemnify and save the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against all loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency. This indemnity shall constitute an obligation separate and independent from the other obligations contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall give rise to a separate and independent cause of action, shall apply irrespective of any indulgence granted by the Administrative Agent from time to time and shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any judgment or order for a liquidated sum in respect of an amount due under this Agreement, or any other Loan Document, or under any judgment or order.
