(b) The Borrower and each Guarantor has taken all necessary corporate action to execute, deliver and perform this Amendment and has validly executed and delivered this Amendment. This Amendment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower and each Guarantor, enforceable against the Borrower and each Guarantor in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the amendments contained herein do not constitute a novation of the Existing Credit Agreement, the other Credit Documents or the indebtedness or any other obligation of the Borrower and the Guarantors described therein and shall not, in any case, affect, diminish or abrogate the Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s liability under the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document.

(b) The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Bank or the Administrative Agent under any of the Credit Documents, nor constitute a waiver of, consent to a departure from, or modification of any other term, covenant, provision or condition set forth in any of the Credit Documents.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Existing Credit Agreement or in this Amendment, no other documents or instruments, including any Assignment, shall be, or shall be required to be, executed in connection with the assignments set forth in Section 7(a) above (all of which requirements are hereby waived), and such assignments shall be deemed to be made with all applicable representations, warranties and covenants as if evidenced by an Assignment. On the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, the Existing Banks shall make full cash settlement with one another either directly or through the Administrative Agent, as the Administrative Agent may direct or approve, with respect to all assignments, reallocations and other changes in Commitments allocable to each such Bank, such that after giving effect to such settlements the Commitment of each Bank shall be as set forth on Schedule VIII to the Credit Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Existing Credit Agreement or in this Amendment, to the extent necessary to permit the implementation of this Amendment, the pro rata payment requirements under Section 2.16 of the Existing Credit Agreement are hereby waived.

Section 8. Bank Consent.

Section 10. Execution in Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Amendment.

Section 11. Governing Law. This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Texas (except that Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code, which regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts, shall not apply to this Amendment or any other Credit Document).

Section 12. Section Captions. Section captions used in this Amendment are for convenience of reference only, and shall not affect the construction of this Amendment.

Section 13. Entire Agreement. This Amendment and the other Credit Documents (the “Relevant Documents”) constitute the entire agreement 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. No promise, condition, representation or warranty, express or implied, not set forth in the Relevant Documents shall bind any party hereto, and no such party has relied on any such promise, condition, representation or warranty. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that, except as otherwise expressly stated in the Relevant Documents, no representations, warranties or commitments, express or implied, have been made by any party to the other with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with any covenant (including the computation of any financial covenant) contained herein, Debt of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to be carried at 100% of the outstanding principal amount thereof, and the effects of FASB ASC 825 and FASB ASC 470-20 on financial liabilities shall be disregarded. If subsequent to the date hereof any change shall occur in GAAP or in the application thereof and such change shall affect the calculation of any financial covenant, or any other provision, set forth herein, then if the Borrower, by notice to the Administrative Agent, shall request an amendment to any such financial covenant or other provision to eliminate the effect of such change on such financial covenant or other provision (or if the Administrative Agent or the Majority Banks, by notice to the Borrower, shall request an amendment to any such financial covenant or other provision for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application

thereof, then the parties hereto shall enter into negotiations in an effort to agree upon such an amendment and, until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such amendment shall have become effective in accordance herewith, such financial covenant or other provision shall be calculated or interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective.

Without limiting the foregoing, leases shall continue to be, for all purposes of this Agreement, classified and accounted for on a basis consistent with that reflected in the audited financial statements of the Borrower last delivered to the Administrative Agent prior to the Third Amendment Effective Date, notwithstanding any change in GAAP relating thereto, unless the parties hereto shall enter into a mutually acceptable amendment addressing such changes, as provided for above.

ARTICLE III.

AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE ADVANCES

Section 3.01. The Advances. Each Bank, severally and for itself alone, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, hereby agrees to make Advances to the Borrower from time to time, on any Business Day during the Availability Period, in an aggregate amount outstanding not to exceed at any time such Bank’s Commitment. Each Borrowing of Advances shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and shall consist of Advances of the same Type made to the Borrower on the same day by the Banks ratably according to their respective Commitments and in the case of Advances that are Eurodollar Rate Advances, having the same Interest Period. Within the limits of each Bank’s Commitment, the Borrower may borrow, prepay pursuant to Section 2.06(b) and reborrow.

Section 3.02. Requests for Advances. During the applicable Availability Period, each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) (a) in the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing, and (b) in the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Advances, on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Bank prompt notice thereof by telecopy. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be in writing (including by telecopy), in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto or such other form as may be approved by the Administrative Agent (including any form on an electronic platform or electronic transmission system as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent), appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Each Notice of

Borrowing shall refer to this Agreement and shall specify (i) the requested date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the requested Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) the requested aggregate principal amount of such Borrowing, and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing of a Eurodollar Rate Advance, the requested Interest Period for such Borrowing.

Section 3.03. Borrowings; Advances; Termination of Eurodollar Rate Advances.

(a) Advances shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Advances of the same Type made by the applicable Banks ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments on the borrowing date of the Borrowing of Advances. The failure of any Bank to make any Advance shall not in itself relieve any other Bank of its obligation to lend hereunder.

(b) Each Borrowing shall be a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing or a Base Rate Borrowing. Each Bank may at its option make any Eurodollar Rate Advance by causing the Eurodollar Lending Office of such Bank to make such Advance, provided, however, that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Advance in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Note, if any. Advances of more than one (1) interest rate option may be outstanding at the same time, provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Advances which, if made, would result in Advances, an aggregate of more than ten (10) separate Advances of any Bank being outstanding hereunder at any one time. For purposes of the foregoing, (i) Eurodollar Rate Advances having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Eurodollar Rate Advances and (ii) Eurodollar Rate Advances and Base Rate Advances, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Advances.

(c) Each Bank shall, before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the borrowing date of each requested Borrowing make available at its Applicable Lending Office for the account of the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 10.02, in immediately available funds, such Bank’s ratable portion of such requested Borrowing in accordance with its applicable Commitment. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower not later than 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) at such account of the Borrower as the Borrower shall from time to time designate in a notice delivered to the Administrative Agent that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. If the applicable conditions set forth in Article III to any such Borrowing are not met, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Banks making the Advances comprising such Borrowing and return the funds so received to the respective Banks as soon as practicable.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary:

(i) if any Bank shall, at least one (1) Business Day before the date of any requested Borrowing to be made, notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or the interpretation of any Law or regulation makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Bank

or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to fund Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, the right of the Borrower to select Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Borrowing or any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until such Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and except as provided in clause (iv) below, each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Advance;

(ii) if the Majority Banks shall, on or before the date any requested Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances is to be made, notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Rate Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Banks of making their respective Eurodollar Rate Advances, the right of the Borrower to select the Eurodollar Rate for such Borrowing or any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Majority Banks, shall notify the Borrower and the Banks that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and except as provided in clause (iv) below, each Advance comprising such Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Advance;

(iii) if the Administrative Agent determines that in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Advance or a conversion to or continuation thereof that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Advances or (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Advance or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Advance, (A) the Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify the Borrower and the Banks that the interest rate cannot be determined for such Eurodollar Rate Advances, (B) the right of the Borrower to select Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Borrowing or any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Banks that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and (C) each Advance comprising such Borrowings shall be a Base Rate Advance;

(iv) if the Borrower has requested a proposed Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances and as a result of circumstances referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above, such Borrowing would not consist of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower may, by notice given reasonably prior to the time of such proposed Borrowing, cancel such Borrowing, in which case such Borrowing shall be canceled and no Advances shall be made as a result of such requested Borrowing; and

(v) if the Borrower shall fail to select the duration or continuation of any Interest Period for any Advances consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, in accordance with the provisions contained in Section 2.04(b) and in this Section 2.03(d), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and the Banks and such Advances will be made available to the Borrower on the date of such Borrowing as Base Rate Advances.

(e) Each Notice of a Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower, except as set forth in Section 2.03(d)(iv). In the case of any Eurodollar Rate Advance requested by the

Borrower in a Notice of Borrowing, the Borrower shall, unless the second following sentence shall be applicable, indemnify each Bank against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Bank if such Eurodollar Rate Advance is not made, including as a result of any failure to fulfill, on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing, the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Bank to fund such Advance to be made by such Bank as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date. A certificate in reasonable detail as to the basis for and the amount of such loss, cost or expense submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Bank shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of such loss, cost or expense. If a Borrowing requested by the Borrower to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances is not made as a Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances as a result of Section 2.03(d), the Borrower shall indemnify each Bank against any loss (excluding loss of profits), cost or expense incurred by such Bank by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Bank (prior to the time such Bank is actually aware that such Borrowing will not be so made), to fund the Advance to be made by such Bank as part of such Borrowing. A certificate in reasonable detail as to the basis for and the amount of such loss, cost or expense submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Bank shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of such loss, cost or expense.

(f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Bank prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank’s ratable portion of such Borrowing in accordance with its applicable Commitment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower requesting such Borrowing on such date a corresponding amount. If, and to the extent that, such Bank shall not have so made such ratable portion of such Borrowing in accordance with its applicable Commitment available to the Administrative Agent, such Bank and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Bank, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing. If such Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

(g) The failure of any Bank to make any Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make any Advance to be made by such other Bank on the date of any Borrowing.

Section 3.04. Conversions and Continuations of Borrowings. (23) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(b) and Section 2.03(d), the Borrower shall have the right at any time upon prior irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) three (3) Business Days prior to the date of conversion or continuation, to convert any Borrowing which constitutes a Base Rate Borrowing into a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, to convert any Borrowing which constitutes a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing into a Base Rate Borrowing or, to continue any Borrowing constituting a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing for an additional Interest Period, subject in each case to the following:

(A) each conversion or continuation shall be made based on the pro rata Commitment of the Banks in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the applicable Advances comprising the converted or continued Borrowing;

(B) if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be converted or continued, the aggregate principal amount of such Borrowing converted or continued shall be in an amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof;

(C) accrued interest on any Advance (or portion thereof) being converted or continued shall be paid by the Borrower at the time of conversion or continuation;

(D) if any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Banks pursuant to Section 2.03(e) and Section 2.06(d) as a result of such conversion;

(E) no Interest Period may be selected for any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing that would end later than the applicable Termination Date;

(F) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of, or result from, such conversion or continuation; and

(G) each such conversion or continuation shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Borrower and the Guarantors that no Default (i) has occurred and is continuing at the time of such conversion or continuation, or (ii) would result from such conversion or continuation.

(b) Each notice pursuant to Section 2.04(a) shall be irrevocable, shall be in writing (or telephone notice promptly confirmed in writing) and shall refer to this Agreement and specify (i) the identity and amount of the Borrowing that the Borrower requests be converted or continued, (ii) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing or a Base Rate Borrowing, (iii) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a Eurodollar Rate Borrowing, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration. The

Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Banks of any notice given pursuant to Section 2.04(a) and of each applicable Bank’s portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If the Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with Section 2.04(a) to continue any Eurodollar Rate Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with Section 2.04(a) to convert such Eurodollar Rate Borrowing), such Eurodollar Rate Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), automatically be continued as a Base Rate Borrowing. For the avoidance of doubt, no notice shall be required for a Base Rate Borrowing to continue as a Base Rate Borrowing.

Section 3.05. Optional Termination and Reduction of the Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused portions of the Total Commitments, provided that (a) each partial reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of at least $10,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (b) the aggregate used amount of the Commitments of each Bank shall not be reduced to an amount which is less than the aggregate principal amount of the Advances of such Bank then outstanding, and (c) no Notice of Borrowing has been delivered and is in effect that would result in aggregate Advances being outstanding in an aggregate amount in excess of the Total Commitment thereafter. Such notice shall specify the date and the amount of the reduction or termination of the Total Commitment. Any such reduction or termination of the Total Commitment shall be made ratably among the Banks in accordance with their respective Commitments and shall be permanent. Simultaneously with any termination of the Total Commitment, in whole or in part, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the accounts of the Banks the accrued and unpaid facility fee as set forth in Section 2.09(a).

Section 3.06. Repayment and Prepayment of Advances; Notes.

(a) The Borrower agrees to repay the Banks all of the Advances in full on the Termination Date.

(b) The Borrower may, upon at least one (1) Business Day’s notice in respect of Base Rate Advances, and, in respect of Eurodollar Rate Advances, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice, to the Administrative Agent pursuant to delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Prepayment stating the proposed date (which shall be a Business Day), the Type of Advances to be prepaid and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given, the Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amounts of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in accordance with the Commitments of the applicable Banks, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid and all fees and amounts, if any, required to be paid under this Agreement, including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.06(d), Section 2.09(a) and Section 2.11 as a result of such prepayment, provided, however, that each partial prepayment of Advances pursuant to this Section 2.06(b) shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $10,000,000 for each Advance so prepaid and increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and in an aggregate principal amount such that after giving effect thereto no Borrowing of Advances comprised of Base Rate Advances shall have a

principal amount outstanding of less than $5,000,000 and no Borrowing of Advances comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances shall have a principal amount outstanding of less than $10,000,000.

(c) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the Type of Borrowing to be prepaid and the aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein.

(d) In the event that any Bank shall incur any loss or expense (including, without limitation, any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the Bank to fund or maintain all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of any Advance) as a result of any repayment occurring prior to the last day of any Interest Period, or prepayment, of a Eurodollar Rate Advance or conversion of any Eurodollar Borrowing, on a date other than the last day of any Interest Period applicable thereto, then the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank, on demand, such amount as will reimburse the Bank for such loss or expense. A certificate as to the amount of such loss or expense setting forth the calculation thereof, submitted by such Bank to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes in the absence of error.

(e) The records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the Banks shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of the Advances, interest and fees due or accrued hereunder, provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Bank to maintain such records 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. Any Bank may request that Advances made by it be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Bank each such Note payable to such Bank.

(f) All voluntary and mandatory repayments under this Section 2.06 and under this Agreement (including pursuant to Section 7.03(b)) shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid to the date of prepayment, if any, and all other fees and amounts required under this Section 2.06 and under this Agreement (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.06(d), Section 2.09(a) and Section 2.11).

Section 3.07. Interest on Advances. (23) Interest on Advances. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance made by each Bank from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum (but subject to the provisions of Section 10.08):

(i) if such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum, commencing on the applicable borrowing date, equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time for such Advance plus the Applicable Rate in effect from time to time for such Advance, payable on each Interest Payment Date; and

(ii) if such Advance is a Eurodollar Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during the Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of the Eurodollar Rate for

such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate in effect from time to time for such Advance, payable on each Interest Payment Date.

(b) Additional Interest on Eurodollar Rate Advances. The Borrower shall pay to each Bank, so long as such Bank shall be required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Advance of such Bank, from the date of such Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) the Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period for such Advance from (ii) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurodollar Rate by a percentage equal to one hundred percent (100%) minus the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage of such Bank for such Interest Period, payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Advance. Such additional interest shall be determined by such Bank and notified to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent. A certificate as to the amount of such additional interest submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent error.

(c) Payment of Interest. All accrued but unpaid interest on all Advances shall be due and payable in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates related thereto.

(d) Maximum Interest. The parties hereto agree that the sum of (i) interest payable in accordance with this Section 2.07, plus (ii) the fees payable as provided in Section 2.09 to the extent they would constitute interest under Applicable Usury Law, plus (iii) other consideration payable hereunder or under the Notes which constitutes interest under Applicable Usury Law (whether or not denoted as interest), shall, as more fully provided in Section 10.08, not exceed the maximum amount allowed under Applicable Usury Law.

Section 3.08. Interest Rate Determination. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Banks of the applicable interest rate for each Eurodollar Rate Advance determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 2.07.

Section 3.09. Fees. (23) Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Bank, a facility fee on such Bank’s Total Commitment (regardless of usage) from the date hereof until the applicable Termination Date in an amount equal to such Bank’s Total Commitment (regardless of usage) multiplied by the Facility Fee Rate therefor (as such rate is set forth under the definition of the Applicable Rate), payable in arrears in quarterly installments on the last day of each calendar quarter so long as any Advance is outstanding or any Bank has any Commitment, on the effective date of any reduction or termination of the Total Commitment pursuant to Section 2.05 and on the applicable Termination Date.

(a) Administrative Agent’s Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its sole account, the fees separately agreed upon with the Administrative Agent in the Bank of America Fee Letter.

Section 3.10. Payments; Computations; Interest on Overdue Amounts. (23) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes to be made by it not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S. Dollars to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 10.02 in same day funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.06(d), 2.07(b), 2.11, 2.12, 2.14 or 2.15, which shall not necessarily be paid ratably to the Banks in accordance with their respective Total Commitment and other than amounts pursuant to Section 2.09(b) which shall be for the Administrative Agent’s sole account) to the Banks in accordance with their respective Total Commitment for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Bank to such Bank for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In no event shall any Bank be entitled to share any fees paid to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.09(b).

(a) All interest and fees hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of Section 2.07(b), by a Bank) of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent error.

(b) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be, provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due by the Borrower to any Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Bank. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, the Applicable Rate shall automatically be increased by 2% per annum (the “Default Rate”).

Section 3.11. Consequential Losses on Eurodollar Rate Advances. If (a) any payment (or purchase pursuant to Section 2.13) of principal of any Eurodollar Rate Advance made to the Borrower is made other than on an Interest Payment Date relating to such Advance, as a result of a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.06(b) or 2.14 or acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 8.01 or for any other reason or as a result of any such purchase; (b) a Eurodollar Rate Advance is converted pursuant to Section 2.04 at a time other than the end of an Interest Period; or (c) the Borrower fails to make a principal or interest payment with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advance on the date such payment is due and payable, the Borrower shall, upon demand by any Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank any amounts required to compensate such Bank for any additional losses, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of any such payment or purchase, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of reasonably anticipated profits, except in the case of such a purchase pursuant to Section 2.13), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Bank to fund or maintain such Advance.

Section 3.12. Increased Costs. (23) If, due to any Change in Law, there shall be any increase in the cost to any Bank of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Advance to the Borrower, then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Bank, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of such increased cost. Promptly after any Bank becomes aware of any such introduction, change or proposed compliance, such Bank shall notify the Borrower thereof, provided that the failure to provide such notice shall not affect such Bank’s rights hereunder, except that such Bank’s right to recover such increased costs from the Borrower for any period prior to such notice shall be limited to the period of ninety (90) days immediately prior to the date such notice is given to the Borrower.

(a) If any Bank determines that any Change in Law affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or based upon the existence of such Bank’s Advances or commitment to lend to the Borrower hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon receipt of a demand by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall, within ten (10) days of such demand, notify such Bank and the Administrative Agent if the Borrower desires to replace such Bank in accordance with Section 2.13. If the Borrower either fails to notify such Bank and the Administrative Agent in accordance with the prior sentence or fails to replace such Bank within the time periods specified in Section 2.13, the Borrower shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank, from time to time as specified by such Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate

such Bank or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Bank reasonably determines such increase in capital or liquidity to be allocable to the existence of such Bank’s commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Bank shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent error.

Section 3.13. Replacement of Banks. In the event that (a) any Bank makes a demand for payment under Section 2.07(b) or Section 2.12, (b) the Borrower is required to make any payment in respect of Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to Section 2.15 or (c) any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, the Borrower may within ninety (90) days of the applicable event, if no Default then exists, replace such Bank with another commercial bank, financial institution or other Person in accordance with all of the provisions of Section 10.06(a) (including execution of an appropriate Assignment), provided that (i) all obligations of such Bank to lend hereunder shall be terminated and the Advances payable to such Bank and all other obligations owed to such Bank hereunder shall be purchased in full without recourse at par plus accrued interest at or prior to such replacement, (ii) such replacement shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (iii) if such replacement bank is not already a Bank hereunder, the Borrower (and, for avoidance of doubt, not the replacement bank) shall pay to the Administrative Agent an assignment fee of $3,500 in connection with such replacement, (iv) such replacement shall, from and after such replacement, be deemed for all purposes to be a “Bank” hereunder with a Commitment in the amount of the respective Commitment of the assigning Bank immediately prior to such replacement (plus, if such replacement bank is already a Bank prior to such replacement, the respective Commitment of such Bank prior to such replacement), as such amount may be changed from time to time pursuant hereto, and shall have all of the rights, duties and obligations hereunder of the Bank being replaced, and (v) such other actions shall be taken by the Borrower, such Bank and such replacement bank as may be appropriate to effect the replacement of such Bank with such replacement bank on terms such that such replacement bank has the same rights, duties and obligations hereunder as such Bank (including, without limitation, execution and delivery of new Notes to such replacement bank if such replacement bank shall so request, redelivery to the Borrower in due course of any Notes payable to such Bank and specification of the information contemplated by Schedule I as to such replacement bank).

Section 3.14. Illegality and Unavailability. (%3) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for such Bank or its Applicable Lending Office to make any Advance whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate or to continue to fund or maintain any Advance hereunder whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Bank to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent,

(i) the obligation of such Bank to make or continue any Eurodollar Rate Advance or to covert Base Rate Advance to Eurodollar Rate Advance shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Bank that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist,

(ii) the Eurodollar Rate Advances then outstanding of such Bank, together with all accrued interest thereon and all amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.11, shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Advances, or, at the option of the Borrower, prepaid in full, unless such Bank shall determine in good faith in its sole opinion that it is lawful to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Advances made by such Bank to the end of the Interest Period then applicable thereto, and

(iii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Bank making or maintaining Base Rate Advances the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Advances of such Bank shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Bank notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

(b) If in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Advance or a conversion to or continuation thereof, (i) the Administrative Agent determines that (A) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Advance, or (B) (x) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Advance or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Advance and (y) the circumstances described in Section 2.14(d)(i) do not apply (in each case with respect to this clause (i), “Impacted Advances”), or (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Majority Banks determine that for any reason the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Advance does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of funding such Eurodollar Rate Advance, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Bank. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Banks to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Advance or Interest Periods), and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurodollar Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a determination by the Majority Banks described in clause (ii) of Section 2.14(b), until the Administrative Agent upon instruction of the Majority Banks) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Advances (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Advances or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Advances in the amount specified therein.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (i) of Section 2.14(b), the Administrative Agent, in consultation

with the Borrower, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Advances, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Advances until (i) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Advances under clause (i) of the first sentence of Section 2.14(b), (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Majority Banks notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Banks of funding the Impacted Advances, or (iii) any Bank determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Bank or its Applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Advances whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Bank to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the Borrower written notice thereof.

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

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

(ii) the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans, provided that, at the time of such statement, there is no successor administrator that is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, that will continue to provide LIBOR after such specific date (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”); or

(iii) syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section 2.14, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR,

then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing LIBOR in accordance with this Section 2.14 with (x) one or more SOFR-Based Rates or (y) another alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including any mathematical or other adjustments to such benchmark giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar U.S. dollar denominated syndicated credit facilities for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time in its reasonable

discretion and may be periodically updated (the “Adjustment;” and any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted such proposed amendment to all Banks and the Borrower unless, prior to such time, Banks comprising the Majority Banks have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Majority Banks (A) in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in clause (x), object to the Adjustment; or (B) in the case of an amendment to replace LIBOR with a rate described in clause (y), object to such amendment; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of clause (A), the Majority Banks shall not be entitled to object to any SOFR-Based Rate contained in any such amendment. Such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such LIBOR Successor Rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent.

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

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

In connection with the implementation of a LIBOR Successor Rate, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, any amendments implementing such LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement; provided that, with respect to any such amendment effected, the Administrative Agent shall post each such amendment implementing such LIBOR Successor Conforming Changes to the Banks reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective.

Section 3.15. Taxes. (23) Any and all payments by the Borrower or a Guarantor hereunder or under the Notes or any other Credit Document shall be made in accordance with Section 2.10, and subject to Applicable Law and Sections 2.15(c), 2.15(e) and 2.16, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings with respect thereto, and all liabilities with respect thereto, including any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto (all such taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower or a Guarantor shall be required by Law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum

payable by it hereunder or under any Note or other Credit Document to any Bank or the Administrative Agent, (y) the Borrower or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall make such deductions and (z) the Borrower or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with Applicable Law, rules and regulations, and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) such Bank or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(a) In addition, the Borrower or a Guarantor, as the case may be, agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made by the Borrower or such Guarantor hereunder or under any Note or other Credit Document executed by it or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any Note or other Credit Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(b) Within thirty (30) days after the date of the payment of Taxes by or at the direction of the Borrower or such Guarantor, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 10.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof. If a Bank receives from the relevant jurisdiction imposing such Tax a refund of a specific Tax item for which it has been indemnified by the Borrower with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay the Borrower an amount equal to such refund, together with any interest paid by such jurisdiction with respect to such refund, provided that the Borrower, upon the request of such Bank, agrees to promptly repay the amount (or portion thereof) paid over to the Borrower by such Bank in the event such Bank is required to repay the refund (or portion thereof) to such jurisdiction.

(c) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower or the Guarantors hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the parties contained in this Section 2.15 shall survive the payment in full of principal and interest hereunder and under the Notes and other Credit Documents.

(d) Each Bank that is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States of America or any state or political subdivision thereof (for purposes of this Section 2.15(e), each a “Non-U.S. Bank”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to Effective Date or upon the effectiveness of any Assignment, or at such other times prescribed by Applicable Law, (i) two (2) properly completed and signed originals of United States of America Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN-E, W-BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor applicable form, as the case may be, certifying that such Bank is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party that eliminates or reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, or (ii) if such Non-U.S. Bank is not a “bank”

or other Person described in Code Section 881(c)(3), two properly completed and signed originals of a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, together with two properly completed and signed originals of Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN-E (or W-BEN if applicable), upon which the Borrower is entitled to rely, from any such Non-U.S. Bank or any successor applicable form, together with any other certificate or statement of exemption or reduction required under the Code, in order to establish that such Non-U.S. Bank is entitled to treat the interest payments under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as portfolio interest that is exempt from withholding tax under the Code. Thereafter, upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, each such Non-U.S. Bank shall (A) upon the obsolescence of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Bank, promptly submit to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower such additional properly completed and signed originals of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to qualify for a deduction in United States withholding taxes, or such evidence as is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of an available exemption from United States withholding taxes, in respect of all payments to be made to such Non-U.S. Bank by the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Documents, and (B) promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption. If a payment made to a Bank hereunder or under any Note or other Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Bank shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Bank has complied with such Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (e), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. A Non-U.S. Bank shall not be required to deliver any form or statement pursuant to this Section 2.15 that such Non-U.S. Bank is not legally able to deliver. The Borrower shall not be required to pay additional amounts to any Bank pursuant to this Section 2.15 to the extent that such Bank did not qualify for a complete exemption from United States withholding taxes at the time such Bank became a party to this Agreement and to the extent that the obligation to pay additional amounts would not have arisen but for the failure of such Bank to comply with this paragraph (e), except to the extent such Bank is not able to comply as a result of a change in law. Any assignee of all or any portion of any Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement shall be subject to this Section 2.15(e). For purposes of this Section 2.15, Applicable Law includes FATCA.

(e) Upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, any Bank claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and requirements of Law) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office if such a change would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may

thereafter accrue) and would not, in the sole determination of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank.

(f) The Borrower or the applicable Guarantor shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Bank, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as applicable, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as applicable, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Bank, shall be conclusive absent error.

(g) Each Bank shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Bank (but only to the extent that the Borrower or the applicable Guarantor has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower and such Guarantor to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Bank’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.06(e) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit 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 Bank by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent error. Each Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under any Credit Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Bank from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (h).

Section 3.16. Payments Pro Rata. Except as provided in Sections 2.06(d), 2.07(b), 2.09(b), 2.11, 2.12, 2.14 or 2.15, each of the Banks agrees that if it should receive any payment (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under this Agreement or the Notes or other Credit Documents, or otherwise) in respect of any obligation of the Borrower or the Guarantors hereunder or under the Notes or other Credit Documents of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Banks in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments is in a greater proportion than the total amount of principal, interest, fees or any other obligation incurred hereunder, as the case may be, then owed and due to such Bank bears to the total amount of principal, interest, fees or any such other obligation then owed and due to all of the Banks in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments immediately prior to such receipt, then such Bank receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse from the other Banks an interest in the obligations of the Borrower to such Banks in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Banks in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments

in the aggregate unpaid amount of principal, interest, fees or any such other obligation, as the case may be, owed to all of the Banks in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments, provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank, such purchase from each other Bank in accordance with their respective Commitments shall be rescinded and each such other applicable Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase price to the extent of such other Bank’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of the participation purchased from such other Bank as a result of such excess payment to (ii) the total amount of such excess payment) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such other Bank’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such other Bank’s required repayment to (b) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank pursuant to this Section 2.16 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

Section 3.17. Increase in Commitments. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy to the Banks) executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and one or more financial institutions (any such financial institution referred to in this Section being called an “Increasing Bank”), which may include any Bank, cause the Commitments of the Increasing Banks to be increased (or cause the Increasing Banks to extend new Commitments) in an amount for each Increasing Bank (which shall not be less than $10,000,000) set forth in such notice, provided that (i) no Bank shall have any obligation to increase its Commitment pursuant to this paragraph, (ii) all new Commitments and increases in existing Commitments becoming effective under this paragraph during the term of this Agreement shall not exceed $200,000,000 in the aggregate, (iii) each Increasing Bank, if not already a Bank hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and (iv) each Increasing Bank, if not already a Bank hereunder, shall become a party to this Agreement by completing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a duly executed accession agreement in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “Accession Agreement”). New Commitments and increases in Commitments shall become effective on the date specified in the applicable notices delivered pursuant to this Section 2.17. Upon the effectiveness of any Accession Agreement to which any Increasing Bank is a party, such Increasing Bank shall thereafter be deemed to be a party to this Agreement and shall be entitled to all rights, benefits and privileges accorded a Bank hereunder and subject to all obligations of a Bank hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no increase in the Total Commitments (or in the Commitment of any Bank) pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective unless (i) the Administrative Agent shall have received documents consistent with those delivered under Section 3.01(a)(ii) through (v), giving effect to such increase, (ii) on the effective date of such increase, the representations and warranties of the Borrower and the Guarantors set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects and no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom, and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the

Borrower, and (iii) (x) upon the reasonable request of any Bank made at least five (5) days prior to the effectiveness of any Accession Agreement, the Borrower shall have provided to such Bank, and such Bank shall be reasonably satisfied with, the documentation and other information so requested in connection with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money-laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the PATRIOT Act, in each case at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effectiveness of any Accession Agreement and (y) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effectiveness of any Accession Agreement, any Loan Party that qualifies as a “legal entity customer” under the Beneficial Ownership Regulation shall have delivered, to each Bank that so requests, a Beneficial Ownership Certification in relation to such Loan Party. On the effective date of any increase in the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.17, to the extent there are outstanding Advances, the parties hereto shall implement such arrangements as may be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to ensure that the proportion between the Banks’ outstanding Advances, after giving effect to such increase, and their respective Commitments, after giving effect to such increase, will be re-established, and the effectiveness of such increase shall be conditioned on the implementation of such arrangements. This Section 2.17 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

Section 3.18. Defaulting Banks. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, then, until such time as that Bank is no longer a Defaulting Bank, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(a) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Bank’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.

(b) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Bank (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 10.05), 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 Bank to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, if so determined by the Administrative Agent, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Bank; third, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which that Defaulting Bank has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fourth, 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 Bank to fund Advances under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Bank against that Defaulting Bank as a result of that Defaulting Bank’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no 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 Bank as a result of that Defaulting Bank’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to that Defaulting Bank or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction;

provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances in respect of which that Defaulting Bank has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Advances were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of all non-Defaulting Banks on a pro rata basis in accordance with their applicable Commitment (computed without giving effect to the applicable Commitment of any Defaulting Bank) prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances owed to, that Defaulting Bank. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Bank that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Bank or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 2.18(b) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Bank, and each Bank irrevocably consents hereto.

(c) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Banks shall not be entitled to receive any facility fee pursuant to Section 2.09(a) for any period during which that Bank is a Defaulting Bank (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 Bank).

(d) Defaulting Bank Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Bank should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Bank, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Bank will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Banks or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the applicable Advances to be held on a pro rata basis by the Banks in accordance with their respective applicable Commitment, whereupon that Bank will cease to be a Defaulting Bank; 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 Bank was a Defaulting Bank; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Bank to Bank will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Bank having been a Defaulting Bank.

Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees the punctual payment of the Guaranteed Obligations when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and agrees to pay any and all reasonable expenses (including counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Bank in enforcing any rights hereunder. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all amounts which constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the Borrower under this Agreement or any of the Notes but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Borrower. The guaranty set forth in this Article IV is a guaranty of payment and not of collection.

Section 5.02. Payment. At the time a Guarantor pays any sum which may become due to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of a Bank under the terms of this Article IV, written notice of such payment shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent by such Guarantor, and in the absence of such notice, any sum received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of a Bank on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be conclusively deemed paid by the Borrower.

Without impairing the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Bank against the Guarantors, the Borrower or any other Obligated Party, suit may be brought and maintained against the Guarantors at the election of the Administrative Agent or any Bank with or without joinder of the Borrower, or any other Obligated Party, any right to any such joinder being hereby waived by each Guarantor.

Guarantors to induce them to execute this Agreement; and each Guarantor acknowledges that it has made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and undertake the guaranty set forth in this Article IV.

Section 5.05. Subordination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any right, claim or action which a Guarantor may have against the Borrower or any other Obligated Party arising out of or in connection with the guaranty set forth in this Article IV or any other document evidencing or securing the Guaranteed Obligations, including, without limitation, any right or claim of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, exoneration or indemnity, shall be subordinated to the prior payment in full of any amounts then due under this Agreement, the Credit Documents, or the Notes. If any amount shall be paid to a Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration or indemnity notwithstanding the foregoing subordination, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Banks and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied upon the Guaranteed Obligations then due.

Section 5.06. Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations under this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (a) the validity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or of the Notes, or any other Credit Document evidencing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) the absence of any attempt to collect the Guaranteed Obligations from the Borrower or any other Obligated Party or other action to enforce the same, (c) the waiver or consent by the Administrative Agent and/or any Bank with respect to any provision of any instrument evidencing the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, or any other agreement now or hereafter executed by the Borrower and delivered to the Administrative Agent and/or any Bank, (d) the surrender, release, exchange, or alteration by the Administrative Agent and/or any Bank of any security or collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, (e) the benefits of §17.001 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, Rule 31 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure and any similar statute or rule and each Guarantor hereby waives any such benefit or (f) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor.

Section 5.07. No Waiver; Remedies.

The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Section 5.08. Continuing Guaranty. The guaranty set forth in this Article IV is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the later of (i) the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this guaranty and (ii) the expiration or termination of all Commitments of each Bank, (b) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns, (c) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the Administrative Agent and each of the Banks and their respective successors, transferees and assigns, and (d) not be terminated by a Guarantor or the Borrower.

Section 5.09. Limitation. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article IV, each Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be limited to the lesser of the following amounts minus, in either case, $100.00:

(a) the lowest amount which would render the guaranty pursuant to this Article IV a fraudulent transfer under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 101 et seq.); or

(b) if the guaranty pursuant to this Article IV is subject to the UFTA or the UFCA or any similar or analogous statute or rule of law, then the lowest amount which would render the guaranty pursuant to this Article IV a fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance under the UFTA, the UFCA, or any such similar or analogous statute or rule of law.

The amount of the limitation imposed upon each Guarantor’s liability under the terms of the preceding sentence shall be subject to redetermination as of each date a “transfer” is deemed to have been made on account of the Guaranty pursuant to this Article IV under applicable law.

Section 5.10. Effect of Bankruptcy. In the event that, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other debtor relief law, or any judgment, order or decision thereunder, any Bank must rescind or restore any payment, or any part thereof, received by such Bank in satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations, any prior release or discharge from the terms of the guaranty set forth in this Article IV given to a Guarantor by the Banks shall be without effect, and the guaranty set forth in this Article IV shall remain in full force and effect. It is the intention of each Guarantor that its obligations hereunder shall not be discharged except by its performance of such obligations and then only to the extent of such performance.

Section 5.11. Keepwell. Each Loan Party that is a Qualified ECP Guarantor at the time of the grant of the security interest under the Credit Documents, in each case, by any Specified Loan Party, becomes effective with respect to any Swap Obligation, hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support to each Specified Loan Party with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Loan Party from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Credit Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP Guarantor’s obligations and undertakings under this Section 4.11 voidable under Applicable Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full.

The Borrower shall permit the representatives of each Bank, at the expense of such Bank and upon reasonable prior notice to the Borrower, to visit the principal executive office of the Borrower, and to discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries at the Borrower’s offices with Financial Officers.

Section 7.08. Compliance with ERISA and the Code. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries will comply, and will cause each other member of any Controlled Group to comply, with all minimum funding requirements, and all other material requirements, of ERISA and the Code, if applicable, to any Plan it or they sponsor or maintain, so as not to (a) give rise to any liability thereunder which has, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect or (b) cause any Termination Event to occur which has, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower shall ensure that neither it nor any of its

Subsidiaries, maintain, contribute to or incur an obligation to make contributions to or incur any liability (contingent or otherwise) to any “multiemployer plan” (as such term is defined by Section 4001(a)(3) of ERISA), except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 7.09. Additional Guarantors. Within thirty (30) days after the Borrower reports results of operations for any fiscal quarter hereafter in which the revenues on a twelve-month trailing basis of any Subsidiary which is not a Guarantor account for 10% or more of the revenues of the Borrower on a Consolidated basis, the Borrower will cause such Subsidiary to guaranty the obligations of the Borrower hereunder by entering into a joinder to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (the “Guarantor Joinder”). In addition, within thirty (30) days after the Borrower reports results of operations for any fiscal quarter hereafter for which non-guarantor Subsidiaries account on a twelve-month trailing basis for greater than 50% of revenues of the Borrower on a Consolidated basis, the Borrower shall cause additional Subsidiaries to guaranty the obligations of the Borrower hereunder by entering into one or more Guarantor Joinders such that Guarantors, in the aggregate, will account for greater than 50% of the revenues of the Borrower on a Consolidated basis. The foregoing notwithstanding, in no event shall any Subsidiary that is a Real Property Holding Company be required to execute and deliver a Guarantor Joinder, or otherwise guaranty or grant collateral security in respect of the Obligations.

Section 7.10. Collateral Requirement. Within 45 days (or such longer period of time agreed to by the Administrative Agent in writing in its sole discretion) of the Third Amendment Effective Date, each Loan Party shall grant a perfected first-priority security interest and continuing Lien (subject to Permitted Liens) in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on all of its Collateral to secure the Obligations by delivering to the Administrative Agent a customary security agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (together with each other security agreement and security agreement supplement, in each case as amended, the “Security Agreement”), duly executed by each Loan Party, together with:

(a) proper financing statements in form appropriate for filing under the UCC of all jurisdictions that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or desirable in order to perfect the Liens created under the Security Agreement and the other Collateral Documents, covering the Collateral described in the Security Agreement and the other Collateral Documents; and

(b) favorable opinions of counsel to the Loan Parties covering items customary for transactions contemplated by this Section 6.10.

Each Loan Party, at the sole cost and expense of the Loan Parties, shall promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent, or any Bank through the Administrative Agent, (a) correct any defect or error that may be discovered in any Collateral Document or in the execution, acknowledgment, filing or recordation thereof, and (b) do, execute, acknowledge, deliver, record, re-record, file, re-file, register and re-register any and all such further acts, deeds, certificates, assurances and other instruments as the Administrative Agent, or any Bank through the Administrative Agent, may reasonably require from time to time in order to (i) carry out more effectively the provisions of the

Collateral Documents, (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, subject the Collateral to the Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), (iii) perfect and maintain the validity, effectiveness and priority of any of the Collateral Documents and any of the Liens (subject to Permitted Liens) created thereunder and (iv) assure, convey, grant, assign, transfer, preserve, protect and confirm more effectively unto the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) the rights now or hereafter granted to the Secured Parties under any Collateral Document or under any other instrument executed in connection with any Collateral Document to which any Loan Party is a party.

Section 8.04. Agreements to Restrict Dividends, Certain Transfers and Liens. Neither the Borrower nor the Guarantors will enter into or suffer to exist, or permit any Significant Subsidiary to enter into or suffer to exist, any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary, as the case may be, (a) to pay, directly or indirectly, dividends or make any other distributions in respect of its capital stock or pay any Debt or other obligation owed to the Borrower, a Guarantor or to any Significant Subsidiary, (b) to make loans or advances to the Borrower, a Guarantor or any Significant Subsidiary, (c) to guarantee the Debt of the Borrower, or (d) to create, incur, assume or suffer to exist Liens on property of such Person, provided, however, that (1) this clause (d) shall not prohibit (i) any negative pledge incurred or provided in favor of any holder of obligations permitted hereunder secured by Liens of the type under clauses (d), (h), (i), (k) or (l) of the definition of Permitted Liens but solely to the extent any such negative pledge relates to the property that constitutes security for the obligations secured thereby (other than with respect to this clause (d)(i), any such negative pledge that restricts any Liens on any Intellectual Property or any Principal Property, in each case, except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement), (ii) customary anti-assignment provisions contained in any lease, license or other contract, and (iii) those encumbrances and restrictions existing on the Second Amendment Effective Date and described on Schedule IV and those now or hereafter existing that are not more restrictive in any respect than such encumbrances and restrictions described on Schedule IV, and (2) the foregoing shall not prohibit (A) restrictions applicable to assets subject to an agreement for the sale or disposition of such assets, to the extent such disposition is permitted by this Agreement or is conditioned on the receipt of an amendment or consent in respect thereof, and (B) customary encumbrances and restrictions set forth in definitive documentation governing Sale-Leaseback Transactions, so long as the Borrower in good faith determines that such encumbrances and restrictions will not impair the ability of the Borrower to make principal or interest payments on the Obligations.

Section 8.05. Transactions with Affiliates. Except as otherwise permitted in Section 7.03, neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor will make any material sale to, make any material purchase from, extend material credit to, make material payment for services rendered by, or enter into any other material transaction with, or permit any of their respective Subsidiaries to make, any material sale to, make any material purchase from, extend material credit to, make material payment for services rendered by, or enter into any other material transaction with, any Affiliate of the Borrower or any Guarantor or of such Subsidiary unless such sales, purchases, extensions of credit, rendition of services and other transactions are (at the time such sale, purchase, extension of credit, rendition of services or other transaction is entered into) (a) in the ordinary course of business, or (b) on terms and conditions believed by the Borrower to be fair in all material respects to the Borrower or such Guarantor or such Subsidiary, as the case may be.

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including (i) fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, to the extent payable pursuant to Section 10.04 hereof, and (ii) amounts payable under Article II) due and payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by laws.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements, Secured Hedge Agreements, and the Secured Bilateral Letters of Credit shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank, Hedge Bank or LOC Bank as the case may be. Each Cash Management Bank, Hedge Bank or LOC Bank not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article IX hereof for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Bank” party hereto. Excluded Swap Obligations with respect to any Guarantor shall not be paid with amounts received from such Guarantor or such Guarantor’s assets, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to payments from other Loan Parties to preserve the allocation to Obligations otherwise set forth above in this Section 8.02.”

ARTICLE X.

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 10.01. Authorization and Action. (23) Each Bank hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as administrative agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Advances), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Banks, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Banks, provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or Applicable Law. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and

the Banks, and none of the Borrower or the Guarantors shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions.

(a) The Administrative Agent may perform any of and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-agents (that is/are Affiliate(s) of the Administrative Agent) appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facility provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Credit Documents, and each of the Banks (including in its capacities as a potential Hedge Bank, a potential Cash Management Bank, and a potential LOC Bank) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Bank for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.01(b) for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IX and Article X (including Section 10.04, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Credit Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

Section 10.02. Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Etc.

The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent error, and the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and the Banks may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Bank as a Defaulting Bank. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Guarantors or any Bank at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(c) Procedures. Upon its receipt of an Assignment executed by a Bank and an assignee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment has been completed and is in substantially the form of the attached Exhibit C, and otherwise in conformity with this Section 10.06, (i) accept such Assignment, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register, and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and each Guarantor. Within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of such notice, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall, if the assignee shall so request, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, in exchange for any surrendered Note, a new Note to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to the applicable Commitment assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and, if such assigning Bank has retained

any Commitment hereunder and so requests, a new Note to the order of such Bank in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the attached Exhibit A.

(d) Participations. Each Bank may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than a Defaulting Bank) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of any of its Commitments, any Advances owing to it, and any Notes held by it), provided, however, that (i) such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all of its Commitments to the Borrower hereunder) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Bank shall remain the holder of any such Notes for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent and the other Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and shall have no duties or responsibilities to the participant, (v) such Bank shall not require the participant’s consent to any matter under this Agreement, except for changes in the principal amount of such Bank’s Commitment, any Note payable to such Bank, in each case, in which the participant has an interest, reductions in such Bank’s fees or interest, in which the participant has an interest, the date any amount in which the participant has an interest is due to such Bank hereunder, or extending the applicable Termination Date, and (vi) such Bank shall give prompt notice to the Borrower of each such participation sold by such Bank. No participant shall have any rights under any provisions of any of the Credit Documents. Each Bank 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 stated interest) of each Participant’s interest hereunder or other obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Bank 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 Credit 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 Bank 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.

(e) Permitted Assignments. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Bank may assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, rights to payments of principal and/or interest under any Notes held by it) to any subsidiary of such Bank or to any Federal Reserve Bank, without notice to or consent from the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provided, however, that such Bank shall not be released from any of its obligations hereunder as a result of such assignment.

(f) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Bank 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 Advances, calculated in accordance with the Defaulting Bank’s applicable Commitment, previously requested, required to be funded, but not funded by the Defaulting Bank, 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 Bank to the Administrative Agent or any Banks hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Advances in accordance with its applicable Commitment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Bank 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 Bank for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Section 11.07. Governing Law. This Agreement, the Notes and the other Credit Documents shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Texas (except that Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code, which regulates certain revolving credit loan accounts, shall not apply to this Agreement or any other Credit Document).

Section 11.08. Interest. (23) It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Administrative Agent and each Bank shall conform strictly to Applicable Usury Laws from time to time in effect. Accordingly, if the transactions with the Administrative Agent or any Bank contemplated hereby would be usurious under Applicable Usury Laws, then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Notes, or any other agreement entered into in connection with or as security for this Agreement or the Notes, it is agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under Applicable Usury Laws that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, under this Agreement, the Notes, or under any other agreement entered into in connection with or as security for this Agreement or the Notes shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such Applicable Usury Laws and any excess shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall at the option of the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, be credited by the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, on the principal amount of the obligations owed to the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, by the Borrower or refunded by the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, to the Borrower, and (ii) in the event that the maturity of any Advance or other obligation payable to the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, is accelerated or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under Applicable Usury Laws, may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such Applicable Usury Laws and excess interest, if any to the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such

acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall, at the option of the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, be credited by the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, on the principal amount of the obligations owed to the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, by the Borrower or refunded by the Administrative Agent or such Bank, as the case may be, to the Borrower.

(a) In the event that at any time the rate of interest applicable to any Advance made by any Bank would exceed the Maximum Rate, thereby causing the interest payable under this Agreement or the Notes to be limited to the Maximum Rate, then any subsequent reductions in the applicable rate of interest hereunder or under the Notes shall not reduce the rate of interest charged hereunder or under the Notes below the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest accrued under this Agreement and the Notes from and after the date hereof equals the amount of interest that would have accrued hereon or thereon if the rates of interest otherwise applicable to this Agreement and the Notes (without limitation by the Maximum Rate) had at all times been in effect. In the event that upon the final payment of all of the Advances made by any Bank and termination of all of the Commitments of such Bank, the total amount of interest paid to such Bank hereunder and under the Notes is less than the total amount of interest which would have accrued if the interest rates applicable to such Advances pursuant to Sections 2.07(a) and (b) had at all times been in effect, then the Borrower agrees to pay to such Bank, to the extent permitted by Applicable Usury Laws, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on such Advances if the Maximum Rate had at all times been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest rates applicable to such Advances pursuant to Sections 2.07(a) and (b) had at all times been in effect over (b) the amount of interest otherwise accrued on such Advances in accordance with this Agreement.

(b) The maximum non-usurious rate of interest shall be determined, subject to any applicable Federal law to the extent that it permits Banks to contract for, charge, reserve or receive a greater amount of interest than under the Texas Finance Code or other laws of the State of Texas, by utilizing the applicable weekly ceiling from time to time in effect pursuant to Chapter 303 of the Texas Finance Code. Pursuant to Section 346.004 of the Texas Finance Code, the parties hereto agree that in no event will the provisions of Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code be applicable to the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents.

Section 11.09. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 11.10. Survival of Agreements, Representations and Warranties, Etc. All warranties, representations and covenants made by the Borrower or the Guarantors or any officer of the Borrower or the Guarantors herein or in any certificate or other document delivered in connection with this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Banks and shall survive the issuance and delivery of the Notes and the making of the Advances regardless of any investigation. The indemnities and other obligations of the Borrower contained in this Agreement, and the indemnities by the Banks in favor of the Agent and its officers, directors,

employees and agents, will survive the repayment of the Advances and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 11.11. The Borrower’s Right to Apply Deposits. In the event that any Bank is placed in receivership or enters a similar proceeding, the Borrower may, to the full extent permitted by law, make any payment due to such Bank hereunder, to the extent of finally collected unrestricted deposits of the Borrower in U.S. Dollars held by such Bank, by giving notice to the Administrative Agent and such Bank directing such Bank to apply such deposits to such indebtedness. If the amount of such deposits is insufficient to pay such indebtedness then due and owing in full, the Borrower shall pay the balance of such insufficiency in accordance with this Agreement.

Section 11.12. Confidentiality. Each Bank and the Administrative Agent agree that they will not disclose without the prior consent of the Borrower and the Guarantors (other than to the Joint Lead Arrangers or any Bank and the affiliates, employees, agents, auditors, accountants, counsel, representatives or other professional advisors (legal or otherwise) of the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers or any Bank who have a contractual, fiduciary or professional duty to maintain the confidentiality of the information and not breach such duty) any information with respect to the Borrower or the Guarantors or their Subsidiaries which is furnished pursuant to this Agreement and which is not disclosed in an SEC Filing, a report to stockholders, a press release, or has otherwise become generally available to the public otherwise than through a breach hereof (the “Confidential Information”), provided that any Bank may disclose any such Confidential Information (a) as may be required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to or required by any municipal, state or Federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Bank or submitted to or required or requested by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States of America or elsewhere) or their successors, (b) as may be required or appropriate in response to any summons or subpoena in connection with any litigation, (c) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Bank, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Credit Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; and (f) to an assignee or participant or prospective assignee or participant in connection with any contemplated transfer of any of the Notes or any interest therein by such Bank, provided that such assignee or participant or prospective assignee or participant executes an agreement with the Borrower and the Guarantors agreeing to comply with the provisions contained in this Section 10.12. In the event that the Administrative Agent or any Bank becomes legally compelled or otherwise obligated to disclose any of the Confidential Information (other than to regulatory or supervisory authorities having jurisdiction over such Bank) and unless otherwise prohibited by applicable laws or regulations, such Person will promptly, after obtaining knowledge of its obligation to disclose such information, provide the Borrower with notice so that the Borrower may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with this Section. In the event such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, such Person will furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which it is advised by legal counsel is legally required and will exercise its best efforts to obtain

reliable assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information. In the event that compliance with this Section is waived by the Borrower, such Person may disclose any and all information at issue without liability to the Borrower, the Guarantors or any other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and each Bank may, and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and each Bank to, include references to the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and the Guarantors, and utilize any logo or other distinctive symbol associated with the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and the Guarantors, solely in connection with any advertising, promotion or marketing undertaken by the Administrative Agent or such Bank in the ordinary course of its business, or, subject to the Borrower’s prior review and approval of any such action by the Administrative Agent or such Bank (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), outside of the ordinary course of its business. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Banks acknowledges that (a) it has no interest or right in any logo or other distinctive symbol associated with the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or the Guarantors, except for the limited right to use as expressly permitted by the preceding sentence, and no other rights of any kind are granted hereunder, by implication or otherwise, and (b) the Borrower, such Subsidiary or the Guarantors, as applicable, is the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interest in such logo or other distinctive symbol associated with the Borrower, its Subsidiaries or the Guarantors.

Section 11.13. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each Guarantor, the Administrative Agent, each Bank and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that the Borrower and the Guarantors shall not have the right to assign any of their respective rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Banks. The rights of the Banks to assign this Agreement are set forth in and are subject to the provisions of Section 10.16.

Section 11.14. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. PURSUANT TO SECTION 26.02 OF THE TEXAS BUSINESS AND COMMERCE CODE, A LOAN AGREEMENT IN WHICH THE AMOUNT INVOLVED IN THE LOAN AGREEMENT EXCEEDS $50,000 IN VALUE IS NOT ENFORCEABLE UNLESS THE LOAN AGREEMENT IS IN WRITING AND SIGNED BY THE PARTY TO BE BOUND OR THAT PARTY’S AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE.

THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES TO AN AGREEMENT SUBJECT TO THE PRECEDING PARAGRAPH SHALL BE DETERMINED SOLELY FROM THE WRITTEN LOAN AGREEMENT, AND ANY PRIOR ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES ARE SUPERSEDED BY AND MERGED INTO THE LOAN AGREEMENT. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT, THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS AND THE COMMITMENT LETTER REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES; PROVIDED THAT IN CASE OF A CONFLICT BETWEEN THE COMMITMENT LETTER AND THIS AGREEMENT, THIS AGREEMENT SHALL CONTROL.

Section 11.15. USA PATRIOT ACT. Each Bank that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Bank) hereby notifies the Borrower and each Guarantor that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, each Guarantor and their respective Subsidiaries, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Bank or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower, each Guarantor and their respective Subsidiaries in accordance with the Act. The Borrower, each Guarantor and their respective Subsidiaries shall, promptly following a reasonable request by the Administrative Agent or any Bank, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Bank requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.

Section 11.16. No Fiduciary Relationship. The Borrower and each Guarantor, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, the Borrower, the Guarantors, the other Subsidiaries and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Banks and their Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any fiduciary duty on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Banks or their Affiliates, and no such duty will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications.

Section 11.17. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.17, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Bank shall be limited by any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other debtor relief law, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 11.18. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY

OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE BORROWER AND EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE UNITED STATES ADDRESS DESIGNATED PURSUANT TO SECTION 10.02 SHALL BE SUCH PERSON’S ADDRESS FOR PURPOSES OF SERVICE OF PROCESS HEREUNDER.

Section 11.19. Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. The words “delivery”, “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation Assignments, amendments or other modifications, Notices of Borrowing, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary the Administrative Agent is under any obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it.

Section 11.20. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Bank that is an EEA Financial Institution arising under any Credit Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

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

(b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares

or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; or

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

Section 11.21. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Credit Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Swap Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Bank shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(b) As used in this Section 10.21, the following terms have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

FORM OF LEGAL OPINION OF BORROWER’S AND GUARANTOR’S COUNSEL

September 13, 2016

To each of the Banks as defined in

the Credit Agreement herein described

and to Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to § 3(a)(iv) of the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of September 13, 2016 (the “Amendment”) among (i) Xxxxxxx International, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as borrower (the “Borrower”), (ii) Xxxxxxx Restaurant Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Xxxxxxx Restaurant”), Xxxxxxx Florida, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Xxxxxxx Florida”), and Xxxxxxx Texas, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Xxxxxxx Texas” and together with Xxxxxxx Restaurant and Xxxxxxx Florida, each a “Guarantor” and together the “Guarantors”) as guarantors, and (iii) the banks party thereto (the “Banks”), and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the Banks (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) which amends the Borrower’s Credit Agreement dated as of March 12, 2015 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which the Existing Banks have made available to the Borrower a revolving credit facility (the Existing Credit Agreement as so amended by the Amendment, the “Amended Credit Agreement”). Capitalized terms defined in the Amended Credit Agreement are used herein with the same meaning unless otherwise defined herein.

(i)The Amended Credit Agreement;

(ii)The Notes issued on the date hereof, if any (the “Notes”);

(vi)Certificate of Incorporation of Xxxxxxx Texas as filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on December 21, 2006, and all amendments thereto through the date hereof (the “Xxxxxxx Texas Certificate of Incorporation” and together with the Xxxxxxx Restaurant Certificate of Incorporation and the Xxxxxxx Florida Certificate of Incorporation, the “Guarantors Certificates of Incorporation“);

(vii)Bylaws of the Borrower (the “Borrower Bylaws”);

(viii)Bylaws of each of the Guarantors (the “Guarantors Bylaws”); and

(ix)The certificates (including attachments) delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to § 3.01 of the Amended Credit Agreement.

In addition, we have examined and relied upon such certificates of public officials and other certificates, opinions and instruments as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for our opinion hereinafter set forth. As to matters of fact material to our opinion, we have, when relevant facts were not independently established, relied upon certificates of representatives of the Borrower and the Guarantors and upon representations and warranties set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, and have not conducted any special inquiry or investigation in respect of such matters.

As used herein, (i) “Disclosed” means disclosed in the Amended Credit Agreement or the SEC Filings of the Borrower filed with the SEC prior to the date hereof and (ii) “Knowledge” means the current, actual knowledge of the attorneys of this firm who are involved in the representation of the Borrower and the Guarantors in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Amended Credit Agreement, without any independent investigation.

ASSUMPTIONS

In rendering this opinion, we have assumed, with your consent and without any independent investigation, all of the following:

(A) the genuineness of all signatures (other than those of the officers of the Borrower and each of the Guarantors who executed the Amended Credit Agreement and the Notes), the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted as certified, conformed or photostatic copies;

(B) that each of the parties to the Documents other than the Borrower and the Guarantors (the “Other Parties”) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or formation and has full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Documents to which it is a party, that each of the Documents has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Other Parties thereto, that each of the Documents constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of each of the Other

D-2

Parties thereto and is enforceable against the Other Parties in accordance with its terms, that each of the Other Parties has fulfilled and complied with its obligations under the Documents to the extent required thereunder to date, and that the Borrower and the Guarantors have received or will concurrently herewith receive the consideration provided in the Documents to be received at or prior to the date hereof;

(D) that the representations and warranties as to factual matters contained in the Documents are true and correct.

OPINION

Based upon the foregoing and having due regard for the legal considerations we deem relevant, and subject to the further qualifications and limitations hereinafter set forth, we are of the opinion that:

1. Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (the “DGCL”), and has the corporate power and authority under the DGCL to enter into and perform the Amended Credit Agreement and the Notes.

2. The execution and delivery by the Borrower of each of the Amended Credit Agreement and the Notes issued on the date hereof and the performance by the Borrower of its obligations thereunder have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Borrower; each of the Amended Credit Agreement and the Notes issued on the date hereof has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower; and each of the Amended Credit Agreement and the Notes issued on the date hereof constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Borrower enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, in each case except as enforcement of the Amended Credit Agreement or the Notes may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and subject to general equity principles and to limitations on availability of equitable relief, including specific performance.

3. The execution and delivery by the Guarantors of the Amended Credit Agreement and the performance by the Guarantors of their respective obligations thereunder have been duly and validly authorized by all necessary corporate actions of the Guarantors; the Amended Credit Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Guarantors; and the Amended Credit Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Guarantors enforceable against the Guarantors in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and subject to general equity principles and to limitations on availability of equitable relief, including specific performance.

4. Neither the execution and delivery of the Amended Credit Agreement or the Notes issued on the date hereof nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated therein will

D-3

violate any provision of the Borrower Certificate of Incorporation, any of the Guarantors Certificates of Incorporation, the Borrower Bylaws or any of the Guarantors Bylaws, or to our Knowledge, conflict with or violate any statute, judgment, order, decree or regulation or rule of any court, governmental authority or arbitrator applicable or relating to the Borrower or any of the Guarantors.

5. To our Knowledge and except as Disclosed, there are no actions, suits, proceedings or claims or investigations pending or threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of the Guarantors or any of their respective properties before any court, governmental agency or regulatory authority which would (i) have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) impair the ability of the Borrower or the Guarantors to perform their obligations under the Amended Credit Agreement or the Notes issued on the date hereof.

6. Neither the Borrower nor any of the Guarantors is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

FURTHER QUALIFICATIONS AND LIMITATIONS

The opinions expressed above are expressly subject to the following qualifications and limitations:

(a) We express no opinion as to (i) the specific remedy that any court or other authority or body might grant in connection with the enforcement of rights under any of the Documents, as to the availability of equitable remedies, as such, in connection with the enforcement of such rights, or as to the effects of the application of principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in proceedings in law or in equity), (ii) the application of any securities laws to any of the transactions contemplated by any of the Documents, or (iii) the effect of any environmental, antitrust or tax laws of the United States of America or of the State of Texas.

(b) We express no opinion as to the validity or enforceability of (i) any provisions purporting to entitle a party to indemnification or release from liability in respect of any matters arising in whole or in part by reason of any illegal, wrongful, knowing or negligent act or omission of such party, (ii) any provisions that purport to restrict access to or waive remedies or defenses, to waive any rights to notices or to establish evidentiary standards, (iii) any provisions relating to liquidated damages, set-offs, waivers, releases, suretyship defenses, delays or omissions of enforcement of rights or remedies, severability, consent judgments or summary proceedings, (iv) any provisions purporting to irrevocably appoint attorneys-in-fact or other agents, (v) any provisions purporting to restrict or limit transfer, alienation or encumbrancing of property, (vi) any provisions that relate to submissions to jurisdiction, waivers or ratifications of future acts, the rights of, third parties or transferability of assets which by their nature are nontransferable, (vii) provisions that contain any agreement to agree, or (viii) provisions that purport to negate or control over present or future laws which are contrary to such provisions.

(c) To the extent that the opinions given in Sections 2, 3 and 4 constitute opinions with respect to laws relating to usury, such opinions are expressly limited to the opinion that the Amended Credit Agreement and the Notes do not require the payment of interest at a rate which is usurious. In rendering such opinion, we have relied upon and assumed the applicability of Chapter

D-4

303 of the Texas Finance Code, as currently in effect, and have assumed that (i) there are no fees, points or other charges or forms of compensation to the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, or any Bank in respect of the Amended Credit Agreement or the issuance of the Notes or any commitment to pay any such charges or other forms of compensation, other than those specifically disclosed in the Amended Credit Agreement, the Commitment Letter, the Bank of America Fee Letter, the JPMCB Fee Letter, the Xxxxx Fargo Fee Letter and the Upfront Fee Letter, (ii) all fees and charges provided for in the Amended Credit Agreement, the Commitment Letter, the Bank of America Fee Letter, the JPMCB Fee Letter, the Xxxxx Fargo Fee Letter and the Upfront Fee Letter to be paid by Borrower or the Guarantors to the Administrative Agent, Joint Lead Arrangers and Book Runners, the Syndication Agents or any Bank constitute bona fide commitment fees, arrangement fees, or administrative agent’s fees, as applicable, and not interest, (iii) all charges for reimbursement of services paid to third parties will be for actual out-of-pocket expenses paid to third parties for services actually rendered by such parties, (iv) the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent, the Banks, the Borrower and the Guarantors will comply with the “usury savings clause” and other provisions of the Amended Credit Agreement to the effect that the Borrower and the Guarantors will never be required to pay interest (including all compensation that constitutes interest under applicable law) on the Notes or otherwise in respect of the Amended Credit Agreement in excess of the maximum rate or amount of interest that may lawfully be contracted for, charged or collected thereon or in connection therewith under applicable Texas law (collectively, the “Savings Clauses”), and (v) in complying with the provisions of the Saving Clauses, the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and such Bank will give due consideration to all fees, charges or other compensation which under applicable Texas law may be or is deemed to be interest.

(d) We are members of the Bar of the State of Texas. This opinion relates only to the Federal laws of the United States of America, the laws of the State of Texas and the DGCL as currently in effect, and we express no opinion with regard to any matters that may be governed or affected by any other laws.

(e) This opinion is limited solely to the matters stated herein and no opinion is to be inferred or may be implied beyond the matters expressly stated herein.

The opinions expressed herein are solely for the benefit of you and your counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Amended Credit Agreement and may not be used or relied upon by any other person or entity or for any other purpose whatsoever. The opinions expressed herein are as of the date first set forth above, and we do not assume or undertake any responsibility or obligation to supplement or to update such opinions to reflect any facts or circumstances which may hereafter come to our attention or any changes in the laws which may hereafter occur.

Very truly yours,
