(d) Interest payable pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be computed on the basis of (i) for interest at the Base Rate (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the LIBO Index Rate), a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) or three hundred sixty-six (366) days, as the case may be, and (ii) for all other computations of fees and interest, a year of three hundred sixty (360) days, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Revolving Loan, the date of the making of such Revolving Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Revolving Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a SOFR Loan, the date of conversion of such SOFR Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Revolving Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Revolving Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a SOFR Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such SOFR Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, that, if a Revolving Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day’s interest shall be paid on that Revolving Loan. (e) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the Borrower or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Lender determines that (i) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Lender promptly on demand by the Lender (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under Debtor Relief Laws, automatically and without further action by the Lender) an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This subsection (e) shall not limit the rights of 31 LEGAL02/44107030v1 the Lender under any other provision of this Agreement. The Borrower’s obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all other Obligations. (f) Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Revolving Loan shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears on and to (i) each Interest Payment Date applicable to that Revolving Loan; (ii) upon any prepayment of that Revolving Loan (other than a voluntary prepayment of a Revolving Loan which interest shall be payable in accordance with clause (i) above), to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid; and (iii) at maturity, including on the Maturity Date. Section 2.6 Conversion/Continuation. (a) The Borrower shall have the option, subject to Section 3.1(c) in the case of the conversion of an Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loan, prior to the end of the applicable Interest Period: (i) to convert at any time all or any part of any Revolving Loan in a principal amount equal to One-Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) and integral multiples of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) in excess thereof, from one Type of Revolving Loan to another Type of Revolving Loan, or (ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Revolving Loan as an Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loan. (b) The Borrower shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to the Lender no later than 2:00 p.m. on the date that is at least three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the proposed Conversion/Continuation Date. Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loans (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and the Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith. Section 2.7 Default Rate of Interest. (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (other than a Specified Acceleration Event of Default), the Borrower shall, at the request of the Lender, pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Laws. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Specified Acceleration Event of Default, the Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Laws. (b) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand. (c) In the case of any Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loan, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time the Default Rate is effective, each such Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loan shall thereupon become a Base Rate Loan and shall thereafter bear interest at the Default Rate then in effect for Base Rate Loans. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.7 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Lender. Section 2.8 Fees. (a) Upfront Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender an upfront fee (the “Upfront Fee”) in an amount equal to seventy-five basis points (0.75%) of the sum of the aggregate principal amount of the 32 LEGAL02/44107030v1 Revolving Commitment on the Closing Date. The Upfront Fee will be due and payable by the Borrower on the Closing Date. (b) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable Margin of the actual daily amount by which the Revolving Commitment exceeds the Total Revolving Outstandings. The Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the Revolving Commitment Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Section 5 is not met, shall be calculated quarterly in arrears and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date. Section 2.9 Prepayments/Commitment Reductions. (a) Voluntary Prepayments. (i) At any time and from time to time, (A) the Borrower may prepay Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans referencing the Index Rate) in whole or in part, in an aggregate minimum principal amount of Five-Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) and integral multiples of One-Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in excess thereof (or, alternatively, the whole amount of Base Rate Loans then outstanding), and (B) the Borrower may prepay Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loans in whole or in part (together with any amounts due pursuant to Section 3.1(c)) in an aggregate minimum principal amount of Five- HundredFive-Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) and integral multiples of One-Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in excess thereof (or, alternatively, the whole amount of Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loans then outstanding). (ii) All such prepayments shall be made (A) upon written or telephonic notice on the date that is one day prior to the date of prepayment in the case of Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans referencing the Index Rate) and (B) upon not less than three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice in the case of Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loans, in each case given to the Lender by 12:00 p.m. on the date required and, if given by telephone, promptly confirmed in writing to the Lender. Upon the giving of any such notice, the principal amount of the Revolving Loans specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein. (b) Voluntary Commitment Reductions. The Borrower may, from time to time upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written or telephonic notice confirmed in writing to the Lender, at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part the Revolving Commitment; provided that (A) any such partial reduction of the Revolving Commitment shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) and in integral multiples of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in excess thereof and (B) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitment if, after giving effect thereto and to any concurrent prepayments hereunder, the aggregate Total Revolving Outstandings exceeds the Revolving Commitment. The Borrower’s notice to the Lender shall designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitment shall be effective on the date specified in the Borrower’s notice. (c) Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time the Total Revolving Outstandings shall exceed the Revolving Commitment, the Borrower shall immediately prepay the Revolving Loans in an amount equal to such excess. 33 LEGAL02/44107030v1

Section 2.10 Application of Prepayments. Within each Revolving Loan, prepayments will be applied first to Base Rate Loans and Index Rate Loans to the fullest extent thereof, then to Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loans in direct order of Interest Period maturities. In addition: (a) Voluntary Prepayments.Voluntary prepayments will be applied as specified by the Borrower. (b) Mandatory Prepayments. Mandatory prepayments will be applied to the Revolving Loans without a permanent reduction of the Revolving Commitments. Section 2.11 General Provisions Regarding Payments. (a) All payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be paid in Dollars in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim or any deduction or withholding whatsoever, including for any and all present and future taxes. If the Borrower makes a payment under this Agreement to which withholding tax applies or if any taxes (other than taxes on net income imposed by any Governmental Authority and measured by the taxable income the Lender would have received if all payments under or in respect of this Agreement were exempt from taxes levied by such Governmental Authority) are at any time imposed on any payments under or in respect of this Agreement including, but not limited to, payments made pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall pay all such taxes to the relevant authority in accordance with Applicable Law such that the Lender receives the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made (or, if the Borrower cannot legally comply with the foregoing, the Borrower shall pay to Lender such additional amounts as will result in the Lender receiving the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made). Further, the Borrower shall also pay to the Lender, promptly upon demand, all additional amounts that the Lender specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Lender would have received if such taxes had not been imposed. The Borrower shall promptly provide the Lender with an original receipt or certified copy issued by the relevant authority evidencing the payment of any such amount required to be deducted or withheld. (b) The Lender may (but shall not be required to), and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to, debit a deposit account of the Borrower held with the Lender or any of its Affiliates and designated for such purpose by the Borrower in order to cause timely payment to be made to the Lender of all principal, interest and fees due hereunder or under any other Credit Document (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that purpose). (c) Subject to the provisos set forth in the definition of “Interest Period,” whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of interest or fees hereunder, but such payment shall be deemed to have been made on the date therefor for all other purposes hereunder. (d) The Lender may, but shall not be obligated to, deem any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder that is not made in same day funds prior to 3:00 p.m. to be a non-conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by the Lender until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds and (ii) the applicable next Business Day. The Lender shall give prompt telephonic notice to the Borrower (confirmed in writing) if any payment is non-conforming. Any non-conforming payment may constitute or become a Default in accordance with the terms of Section 9.1(a). Interest shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such 34 LEGAL02/44107030v1 payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the Default Rate from, and including, the date such amount was due and payable to, and including, the date such amount is paid in full. Section 3. YIELD PROTECTION Section 3.1 Making or Maintaining LIBOR LoansInterest Rates. (a) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any Credit Document (and any Swap Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Credit Document” for purposes of this Section 3.1), in the event that the Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that (i) by reason of circumstances affecting the London or other applicable interbank market, on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any Adjusted Term SOFR Loans, that (i) adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining theSOFR, Term SOFR, Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR or the LIBO Index Rate, as applicable, or (ii) theSOFR, Term SOFR, Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR or the LIBO Index Rate, as applicable, for any proposed LIBOR LoanAdjusted Term SOFR Loans does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of funding or maintaining such LIBORAdjusted Term SOFR Loan, the Lender shall give notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower of such determination, whereupon (x) no Revolving Loans may be made as, or converted to, LIBORAdjusted Term SOFR Loans until such time as the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and (y) any Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by the Borrower with respect to the Revolving Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by the Borrower and (z) all such Revolving Loans described in clause (y) hereof shall be automatically made or continued as, or converted to, as applicable, Base Rate Loans on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto without reference to the LIBO Index Rate component of the Base Rate., unless the Borrower prepays such Revolving Loans in accordance with this Agreement. If the circumstances described in this Section 3.1(a) occur but only with respect to limited, but not all, tenors of the then applicable term rate Benchmark (including Term SOFR), then (A) the Lender may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such illegal or impracticable tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) of this sentence is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark, then the Lender may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. (b) Illegality or Impracticability of the Benchmark. (i) (b) Illegality or Impracticability of LIBOR Loans. InSubject to Section 3.1(b)(ii), in the event that on any date the Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after notice to and consultation with the Borrower) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its LIBOR Loans (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by the Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or (ii) has become impracticable, as a result of contingencies occurring after the Closing Date which materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the position of the Lender in that market, then, and in any such eventa Benchmark Illegality/Impracticability Event has occurred, the Lender shall on that day give notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower of such determination. Thereafter (1) the obligation of the Lender to make Revolving Loans as, or to convert Revolving Loans to, LIBORAdjusted Term SOFR Loans shall be suspended until such 35 LEGAL02/44107030v1 notice shall be withdrawn by the Lender, (2) to the extent such determination by the Lender relates to a LIBORan Adjusted Term SOFR Loan then being requested by the Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Lender shall make such Revolving Loan as (or continue such Revolving Loan as or convert such Revolving Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan (without reference to the LIBO Index Rate (or other then-current Benchmark) component of the Base Rate), (3) the Lender’s obligation to maintain its outstanding LIBORAdjusted Term SOFR Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by Applicable Law, and (4) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans without reference to the LIBO Index Rate (or other then-current Benchmark) component of the Base Rate on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Lender as described above relates to an Adjusted Term SOFR Loan then being requested by the Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 3.1(a), to rescind such Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice by giving notice (by facsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Lender of such rescission on the date on which the Lender gives notice of its determination as described above. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Section 3.1(b)(i) shall affect the obligation of the Lender other than a Lender to make or maintain Revolving Loans as, or to convert Revolving Loans to, Adjusted Term SOFR Loans in accordance with the terms hereof. If a Benchmark Illegality/Impracticability Event occurs but only with respect to limited, but not all, tenors of the then applicable term rate Benchmark (including Term SOFR), then (x) the Lender may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such illegal or impracticable tenor and (y) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (x) of this sentence is not, or is no longer, subject to a Benchmark Illegality/Impracticability Event, then the Lender may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor. (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, if the Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that a Benchmark Illegality/Impracticability Event has occurred, then, on a date and time determined by the Lender (any such date, the “Benchmark Replacement Date”), which date shall be at the end of an Interest Period or on the relevant Interest Payment Date, as applicable, for interest calculated, the then current Benchmark will be replaced hereunder and under any other Credit Document with the Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (x) if the Lender determines that the non-Term SOFR alternatives set forth in the definition of Benchmark Replacement is available on or prior to the Benchmark Replacement Date or (y) a Benchmark Illegality/Impracticability Event has occurred with respect to the non-Term SOFR Benchmark Replacement then in effect, then in each case, the Lender and the Borrower may amend this Agreement solely for the purpose of replacing Term SOFR or any then current Benchmark Replacement in accordance with this Section 3.1 at the end of any Interest Period, relevant Interest Payment Date or payment period for interest calculated, as applicable, with another alternate benchmark rate giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar Dollar denominated bilateral credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks and, in each case, including Benchmark Replacement Adjustment giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar Dollar denominated bilateral credit facilities for such benchmarks, which adjustment or method for calculating such Benchmark Replacement Adjustment shall be published on an information service as selected by 36 LEGAL02/44107030v1 the Lender from time to time in its reasonable discretion and may be periodically updated. For the avoidance of doubt, any such proposed rate and Benchmark Replacement Adjustment shall constitute a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date the Lender and the Borrower shall executed such amendment. The Lender will notify (in one or more notices) the Borrower of the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement. Any Benchmark Replacement shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for the Lender, such Benchmark Replacement shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Lender. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, if at any time any Benchmark Replacement as so determined would otherwise be less than zero percent (0%), the Benchmark Replacement will be deemed to be zero percent (0%) for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Lender will have the right (following consultation with the Borrower) to make Benchmark Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark 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 Lender shall post each such amendment implementing such Benchmark Conforming Changes to the Borrower reasonably promptly after such amendment becomes effective. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Lender pursuant to this Section 3.1(b)(ii), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 3.1(b)(ii). (c) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. The Borrower shall compensate the Lender, promptly upon written request by the Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable out-of-pocket losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid or calculated to be due and payable by the Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by the Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which the Lender sustains: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by the Lender) a borrowing of any Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Funding Notice or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any conversion of, anany of its Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loans occurs on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Revolving Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or (iii) if any 37 LEGAL02/44107030v1

prepayment of anany of its Adjusted LIBO RateTerm SOFR Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower. (d) Booking of Adjusted SOFR Loans. The Lender may make, carry or transfer Adjusted Term SOFR Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of the Lender. (e) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of the Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Lender and the circumstances giving rise thereto shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. In the absence of any such manifest error, the Borrower shall pay the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate promptly and, in any event, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof. (f) Delay in Requests. The Borrower shall not be required to compensate athe Lender pursuant to this Section 3.1(c) for any such amounts incurred more than six (6) months prior to the date that suchthe Lender delivers to the Borrower the certificate referenced abovein Section 3.1(e). (d) Booking of LIBOR Loans. The Lender may make, carry or transfer LIBOR Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of the Lender. (e) Assumptions Concerning Funding of Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to the Lender under this Section 3.1 and under Section 3.2 shall be made as though the Lender had actually funded each of the relevant Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans through the purchase of a LIBOR deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Adjusted LIBO Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such LIBOR deposit from an offshore office of the Lender to a domestic office of the Lender in the United States; provided, however, that the Lender may fund each of its Adjusted LIBO Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 3.1 and under Section 3.2. (f) LIBOR Phase Out Disclosure. The United Kingdom’s Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) has announced it will phase out its support of LIBOR. LIBOR may be sustained until the end of 2021. The Borrower acknowledges that if, during the term of this Agreement, the Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that LIBOR is unavailable, cannot be determined, does not adequately reflect the cost to the Lender of making, funding, or maintaining the Revolving Loans, has become impracticable or unreliable for use, is no longer representative of the underlying market or economic reality, or cannot be lawfully used, the Borrower’s variable interest rate will be determined based on an alternate interest rate index subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The effect of the FCA’s decision to no longer support LIBOR cannot be predicted, or, if changes are ultimately made to LIBOR, the effect of those changes cannot be predicted. In addition, the Borrower acknowledges the impact of any interest rate index change related to the Revolving Loans due to the FCA’s decision to phase out its support of LIBOR, should this occur, cannot be predicted and may or may not be advantageous to the Borrower. Section 3.2 Increased Costs. (a) Increased Costs Generally. The Borrower will pay the Lender, promptly on demand, for the Lender’s costs or losses arising from any Change in Law which are allocated to this Agreement, any Credit Document or any credit outstanding under or arising in connection with this Agreement and/or any 38 LEGAL02/44107030v1 other Credit Document. The allocation will be made as determined by the Lender, using any reasonable method. The costs include, without limitation, the following: (i) any reserve or deposit requirements; and (ii) any capital or liquidity ratios or requirements relating to the Lender’s assets and commitments for credit. (b) Reserves on LIBOR Loans. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender, as long as the Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Revolving Loan by the Lender (as determined by the Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive and binding), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Revolving Loan. (b) (c) Delay. Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.2 shall not constitute a waiver of suchthe Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.2 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six (6) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). Section 4. GUARANTY Section 4.1 The Guaranty. Each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantees to the Lender and the other holders of the Obligations as hereinafter provided, as primary obligor and not as surety, the prompt payment of the Obligations in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms thereof. The Guarantors hereby further agree that if any of the Obligations are not paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise), the Guarantors will, jointly and severally, promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, in any other Credit Document, any other document relating to the Obligations, the obligations of each Guarantor under the Credit Documents shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under the Debtor Relief Laws.

Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Borrower or any other Guarantor for amounts paid under this Section 4 until such time as the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments have expired or terminated. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above: (a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived; (b) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any Credit Document or any other document relating to the Obligations, shall be done or omitted; (c) the maturity of any of the Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Obligations shall be modified, supplemented and/or amended in any respect, or any right under any Credit Document or any other document relating to the Obligations, shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Obligations or any security therefor shall be released, impaired and/or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; (d) any Lien granted to, or in favor of, the Lender as security for any of the Obligations shall fail to attach or be perfected; or (e) any of the Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable (including for the benefit of any creditor of any Guarantor) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including any creditor of any Guarantor). With respect to its obligations hereunder, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Credit Documents or any other document relating to the Obligations against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Obligations. Section 4.3 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under this Section 4 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees that it will indemnify the Lender promptly on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Lender in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any Debtor Relief Laws. 40 LEGAL02/44107030v1 Section 4.4 Certain Additional Waivers.

(c) Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.

The rights of the Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 10.3 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Lender or its Affiliates may have. The Lender agrees to notify the Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, participants of the Lender and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Lender) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 65 LEGAL02/44107030v1

(b) The Borrower understands that the Lender may from time to time enter into a participation agreement or agreements with one or more participants pursuant to which each such participant shall be given a participation in the Revolving Loan and that any such participant may from time to time similarly grant to one or more subparticipants subparticipations in the Revolving Loans; provided that (i) the Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the Credit Parties for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower and the Lender shall continue to deal solely and directly with each other in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Subject to the above, the Borrower agrees that any participant or subparticipant may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien or set-off with respect to the Borrower, as fully as if such participant or subparticipant had made a loan directly to the Borrower in the amount of the participation or subparticipation given to such participant or subparticipant in the Revolving Loans. For the purposes of this Section 10.5(b) only, the Borrower shall be deemed to be directly obligated to each participant or subparticipant in the amount of its participation interest in the amount of the principal of, and interest on, the Revolving Loans.

Section 10.7 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege under any Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to the Lender hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Credit Documents or in any Swap Agreements or any Treasury Management Agreements with the Lender or an Affiliate of the Lender. Section 10.8 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. The Lender shall not be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party, or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.

Section 10.9 Severability. In case any provision in or obligation under any other Credit Document shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 66 LEGAL02/44107030v1 Section 10.10 Applicable Laws.
