2.1 Term Loans.

Pursuant to the Original Credit Agreement, the Initial Term Lender made, on the Closing Date, term loans to the Borrowers in an aggregate amount equal to $2,000,000,000 (such term loans, the “Initial Term Loans”), which remains outstanding under this Agreement. Such aggregate amount was allocated to each Borrower in accordance with the amounts listed on Schedule 2.1 for such Borrower, and the amount so allocated to a Borrower was lent directly by such Lender to such Borrower. The Initial Term Loans were made on the Closing Date as Base Rate Loans.

Any amount borrowed under this Section 2.1(a) and subsequently repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. The Initial Term Lender’s Initial Term Loan Commitment terminated immediately and without further action on the Closing Date after giving effect to the funding of such Lender’s Initial Term Loan Commitments on the Closing Date.

(b) Borrowing Mechanics for Term Loans.

(i) Borrowers delivered to Administrative Agent a fully executed Funding Notice on the Closing Date with respect to Initial Term Loans made on the Closing Date.

(ii) With respect to any New Term Loan Commitments entered into pursuant to Section 2.20, Borrowers shall deliver to Administrative Agent a fully executed and delivered Funding Notice no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed Credit Date in the case of a New Term Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan, and at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed Credit Date in the case of a New Term Loan that is a Base Rate Loan (which proposed Credit Date shall

be not later than the New Term Loan Outside Date). Except as otherwise provided herein, a Funding Notice for a New Term Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan shall be irrevocable when given, and Borrowers shall be bound to make a borrowing in accordance therewith. Promptly upon receipt by Administrative Agent of any Funding Notice, Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing. Administrative Agent and Lenders may act without liability upon the basis of written, or telecopied notice believed by Administrative Agent in good faith to be from the Borrowers (or from any Authorized Officer thereof designated in writing purportedly from Borrowers to Administrative Agent), it being understood that no Lender nor Administrative Agent shall be obligated in any manner with respect to the funding of any Loan in the absence of the receipt by Administrative Agent of a completed and executed Funding Notice. Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any Authorized Officer’s authority to request a Loan on behalf of a Borrower until Administrative Agent and such Lenders receive written notice to the contrary. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall have no duty to verify the authenticity of the signature appearing on any written Funding Notice.

(iii) Each Lender shall make its New Term Loan available to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Credit Date, by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars, at the Principal Office designated by the Administrative Agent. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of the Loans available to Borrowers on the applicable Credit Date by causing an amount of same day funds in Dollars equal to the proceeds of all such Loans received by Administrative Agent from Lenders to be credited to the account of the applicable Borrower at the Principal Office designated by the Administrative Agent or to such other account as may be designated in writing to Administrative Agent by such Borrowers.

(c) Final Maturity Date. Subject to Sections 2.9 and 2.10, all amounts owed hereunder with respect to the Term Loans shall be paid in full no later than the Final Maturity Date.

2.2 Pro Rata Shares; Availability of Funds.

(a) Pro Rata Shares. Any Loan requested on a Credit Date shall be made by the applicable Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder nor shall any Term Loan Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder.

(b) Availability of Funds. Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Credit Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Credit Date, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent on such Credit Date and Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to Borrowers a corresponding amount on such Credit Date. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to

Administrative Agent by such Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three (3) Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Borrowers and Borrowers shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the rate payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans. Nothing in this Section 2.2(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Term Loan Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

2.3 Use of Proceeds. Subject to Section 6.19, the proceeds of the Term Loans shall be applied by Borrowers for working capital and general corporate purposes of Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries; but shall in no event be used to make or facilitate any Investment or Restricted Junior Payment not otherwise permitted hereunder. No portion of the proceeds of any Credit Extension shall be used in any manner that causes or might cause such Credit Extension or the application of such proceeds to violate Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any other regulation thereof or to violate the Exchange Act.

2.4 Evidence of Debt; Register; Lenders’ Books and Records; Notes.

(a) Lenders’ Evidence of Debt. Each Lender shall maintain on its internal records an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of Borrowers to such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers absent manifest error; provided, that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Term Loan Commitments or any Borrower’s Obligations in respect of any applicable Loans; and provided, further, in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern.

(b) Register. Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent) shall maintain at its Principal Office a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of Lenders and the Term Loan Commitments and Loans of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”) including the principal amount of the Loans and Commitments. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Administrative Agent shall record, or shall cause to be recorded, in the Register the Term Loan Commitments and the Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6, and each repayment or prepayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans, and any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Borrowers and each Lender, absent manifest error; provided, failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Term Loan Commitments or Borrowers’ Obligations in respect of any Loan. Borrowers hereby designate the entity serving as Administrative Agent to serve as Borrowers’ agent solely for purposes of maintaining the Register as provided in this Section 2.4, and Borrowers hereby agree that, to the extent such

entity serves in such capacity, the entity serving as Administrative Agent and its officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates shall constitute “Indemnitees.”

(c) Notes. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to a Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent), such Borrower promptly shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 10.6) on the Closing Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Closing Date, promptly after Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Term Loan.

2.5 Interest on Loans.

(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof as follows:

(i) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or

(ii) if a LIBOR Rate Loan, at the Adjusted LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) The basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan, and the Interest Period with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loan, shall be selected by the applicable Borrower and notified to Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be. If on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which a Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice has not been delivered to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day such Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan.

(c) In connection with LIBOR Rate Loans there shall be no more than ten (10) Interest Periods outstanding at any time. In the event a Borrower fails to specify between a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Rate Loan in the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Loan (if outstanding as a LIBOR Rate Loan) will be automatically converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan will remain as, or (if not then outstanding) will be made as, a Base Rate Loan). In the event the applicable Borrower fails to specify an Interest Period for any LIBOR Rate Loan in the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month. As soon as practicable after 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that shall apply to the LIBOR Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and the applicable Borrower and each Lender.

(d) Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.5(a) shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day year with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans and Base Rate Loans (other than as to clause (i) of the definition of Base Rate) or (solely as to clause (i) of the definition of Base Rate) a 365/366 day year with respect to Base Rate Loans, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, the last Interest Payment Date with respect to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a LIBOR Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such LIBOR Rate Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a LIBOR Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to such LIBOR Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

(e) Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Loan (i) shall accrue on a daily basis and be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect to interest accrued on and to each such payment date; (ii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears upon any prepayment of that Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid; and (iii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears at maturity of such Loan, including final maturity of such Loan; provided that, with respect to any voluntary prepayment of a Loan, accrued interest shall instead be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date. Any interest on a Loan which is not paid when due shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, bear interest at the same rate as is applicable to that Loan, and such interest on interest shall be payable in arrears at the same times as interest on that Loan and shall, if not paid when due, compound daily.

2.6 Conversion/Continuation.

(a) Subject to Section 2.14 and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, the applicable Borrower shall have the option:

(i) to convert at any time all or any part of any Term Loan equal to $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount from one Type of Loan to another Type of Loan; provided, a LIBOR Rate Loan may only be converted on the expiration of the Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loan unless the applicable Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 2.14 in connection with any such conversion; or

(ii) upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any LIBOR Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount as a LIBOR Rate Loan.

(b) A Borrower shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan) and at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a LIBOR Rate Loan). Except as otherwise provided herein, a Conversion/Continuation Notice for conversion to, or continuation of, any LIBOR Rate Loans shall be irrevocable on and after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and such Borrower shall be bound to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.

2.7 Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the principal amount of all Loans outstanding and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any interest payments on the Loans or any fees or other amounts owed hereunder, shall thereafter bear interest (including post petition interest in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws, whether or not allowed in such a proceeding) payable on demand or, if no demand is made, at the time specified below, at a rate that is two percent (2.0%) per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in the case of any such fees and other amounts, at a rate which is two percent (2.0%) per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans); provided, in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is effective such LIBOR Rate Loans shall thereupon become Base Rate Loans and shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is two percent (2.0%) per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans. To the extent no demand therefore has been previously made, such interest shall be payable in arrears at the same times as interest on each Loan and shall, if not paid when due, compound daily. 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 Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or any Lender.

2.8 Fees; Initial Yield Payment.

(a) Borrowers agree to pay to Lenders having Term Loan Commitments (including New Term Loan Commitments) (x) an undrawn fee equal to (a) any unused portion of their respective Term Loan Commitments, times (b) one percent (1%) per annum, to be paid in accordance with Section 2.8(b); and (y) an initial yield payment equal to 5% of their respective Term Loan Commitments, to be paid pro rata at each time of funding with respect to the portion of such commitments related to such funding. The parties acknowledge that for tax purposes only the initial yield payment shall be treated as a payment described in Treas. Reg. Section 1.1273-2(g)(2).

(b) All fees referred to in clause (x) of Section 2.8(a) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and the actual number of days elapsed and shall be payable monthly in arrears on the last day of each month during the applicable period, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date and on the date of funding of the applicable Commitments (including New Term Loan Commitments). All fees referred to in Section 2.8(a) shall be earned as of the Closing Date, regardless of when paid.

(c) In addition to any of the foregoing fees, Borrowers agree to pay to Agents all fees specified in the Fee Letter in the amounts and at the times specified therein.

2.9 Voluntary Prepayments.

(a) Voluntary Prepayments.

(i) Any time and from time to time:

(1) with respect to Base Rate Loans, Borrowers may prepay any such Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part, in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount; and

(2) with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans, Borrowers may prepay any such Loans on any Business Day in whole or in part (together with any amounts due pursuant to Section 2.14(c)), in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount.

(ii) All such prepayments shall be made:

(1) upon not less than one Business Day’s prior written notice in the case of Base Rate Loans; and

(2) upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans,

in each case given to Administrative Agent by 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date required shall promptly transmit such original notice for Term Loans, by telecopy or telephone to each Lender). Upon the giving of any such notice, the principal amount of the Loans specified in such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date specified therein. Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as specified in Section 2.11(a).

2.10 Mandatory Prepayments/Commitment Reductions.

(a) Asset Sales. No later than the first Business Day following the date of receipt by any Credit Party of any Net Asset Sale Proceeds arising from any Asset Sale pursuant to clause (c), (n) or (p) of Section 6.8, Borrowers shall ratably prepay the Loans and permanently reduce any Term Loan Commitments then in effect (in accordance with the respective principal amounts then outstanding thereof) in an aggregate amount equal to 75% of such Net Asset Sale Proceeds, to be applied as specified in Section 2.11(b);

(b) Prepayment Certificate. Concurrently with any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a), Borrowers shall deliver to Administrative Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer of any Borrower demonstrating the calculation of the amount of the applicable Net Asset Sale Proceeds. In the event that Borrowers shall subsequently determine that the actual amount received exceeded the amount set forth in such certificate, Borrowers shall promptly make an additional prepayment of the Loans in an amount equal to such excess, and Borrowers shall concurrently therewith deliver to Administrative Agent a certificate of an Authorized Officer of such Borrower demonstrating the derivation of such excess.

2.11 Application of Prepayments/Reductions.

(a) Application of Voluntary Prepayments of Loans. Any voluntary prepayment of any Loan pursuant to Section 2.9 shall be applied, first, to the payment of all expenses and fees (other than the Payment Premium) then due and owing to the full extent thereof, second, to the payment of the Payment Premium, if any, on any Loan, and third to repay outstanding Loans on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof).

(b) Application of Mandatory Prepayments. Any mandatory prepayment of any Loan pursuant to Section 2.10 shall be applied as follows:

first, to the payment of all expenses and fees (other than the Payment Premium) then due and owing to the full extent thereof;

second, to the payment of any accrued interest thereon at the Default Rate, if any;

third, to the payment of the Payment Premium, if any, on any Loan;

fourth, to the payment of any accrued interest (other than that calculated at the Default Rate and paid in clause “second” above); and

fifth, to ratably (i) prepay Loans and (ii) permanently reduce any Term Loan Commitments then in effect (in accordance with the respective principal amounts thereof).

(c) Waiver of Certain Prepayments. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event a Borrower is required to make any mandatory prepayment (a “Waivable Prepayment”), not less than three (3) Business Days prior to the date (the “Prepayment Date”) on which such Borrower is required to make such Waivable Prepayment, such Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Term Loan of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Waivable Prepayment and such Lender’s option to refuse such amount. Each such Lender may exercise such option by giving written notice to the applicable Borrower and Administrative Agent of its election to do so on or before the first Business Day prior to the Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender which does not notify the applicable Borrower and Administrative Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the first Business Day prior to the Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option). On the Prepayment Date, the applicable Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent the amount of the Waivable Prepayment, which amount shall be applied (i) in an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Prepayment payable to those Lenders that have elected not to exercise such option, to prepay the Loans of such Lenders and (ii) to the extent of any excess, to Borrower for working capital and general corporate purposes.

(d) Application of Prepayments of Loans to Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Rate Loans. Any prepayment thereof shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to LIBOR Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.14(c).

2.12 General Provisions Regarding Payments.

(a) All payments by Borrowers of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in Dollars in same day funds, without, recoupment, setoff, counterclaim or other defense free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due at the Principal Office designated by the Administrative Agent for the account of Lenders; funds received by Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by Borrowers on the next Business Day.

(b) All payments, distributions or other transfers in respect of the principal amount of any Loan (whether or not upon maturity, whether mandatory or optional, whether voluntary or involuntary, including following any default or any acceleration (whether automatic or following notice), following any asset sale, or following the filing by or against any Borrower or any Guarantor of any petition under the Bankruptcy Code (whether or not such payment, distribution, or transfer is under a plan of reorganization or liquidation or ordered by any court of competent jurisdiction) or otherwise) shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid and any Payment Premium payable in connection therewith.

(c) Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate in writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due thereto, including all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by Administrative Agent.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions hereof, if any Conversion/ Continuation Notice is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any LIBOR Rate Loans, Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(e) Subject to the proviso 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 hereunder or of the commitment fees hereunder.

(f) Borrowers hereby authorize Administrative Agent to charge Borrowers’ accounts with Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in order to cause timely payment to be made to Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that purpose.

(g) Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of Borrowers hereunder that is not made in same day funds prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City

time) to be a non conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the next Business Day. 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 payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the Default Rate determined pursuant to Section 2.7 from the date such amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full.

(h) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all payments or proceeds received by Agents hereunder in respect of any of the Obligations shall be applied first, to pay any costs and expenses then due Collateral Agent in connection with the foreclosure or realization upon, the disposal, storage, maintenance or otherwise dealing with any of, the Collateral or otherwise, and indemnities and other amounts then due to Collateral Agent under the Credit Documents until paid in full, second, to pay any costs, expenses, indemnities, fees or premiums then due to Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents until paid in full, third, ratably to pay any expenses or indemnities then due to any of the Lenders under the Credit Documents, until paid in full, fourth, ratably to pay interest due in respect of the Loans until paid in full, fifth, ratably to pay any Payment Premium then due to the Lenders under the Credit Documents until paid in full; sixth, ratably to pay the principal amount of all Loans then outstanding until paid in full, and seventh, to pay ratably any other Obligations then due and payable.

(i) Payment Premium. If a Borrower or Guarantor prepays or repays, or if there are any distributions or any other transfers on account of, all or any part of the principal balance of any Term Loan for any reason or at any time (whether or not upon maturity, whether mandatory or optional, whether voluntary or involuntary, including following any default or any acceleration (whether automatic or following notice), following any asset sale, or following the filing by or against any Borrower or any Guarantor of any petition under the Bankruptcy Code (whether or not such payment, distribution, or transfer is under a plan of reorganization or liquidation or ordered by any court of competent jurisdiction) or otherwise), and/or any Commitment is reduced or terminated (other than the termination of any Term Loan Commitments on the Closing Date or on the date of the full funding of such Commitment), such Borrower shall pay the applicable Payment Premium to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of all Lenders entitled to a portion of such prepayment, repayment or reduction.

2.13 Ratable Sharing. Lenders hereby agree among themselves that, except as otherwise provided in any Credit Document, if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater (such greater amount over such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Amounts Due being referred to as the “Aggregate Amounts Due Excess”) than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such

Aggregate Amounts Due Excess shall (a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such excess payment and (b) apply the excess portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided, if all or part of such Aggregate Amounts Due Excess received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrowers or otherwise, those purchases to that extent shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Borrowers expressly consent to the foregoing arrangement and agree that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by Borrowers to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.

2.14 Making or Maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans.

(a) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate, Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by telecopy or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrowers and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, LIBOR Rate Loans until such time as Administrative Agent notifies Borrowers and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and (ii) any Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by Borrowers with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Borrowers.

(b) Illegality or Impracticability of LIBOR Rate Loans. In the event that on any date any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after consultation with Borrowers and Administrative Agent) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its LIBOR Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such 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 such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and it shall on that day give notice (by telecopy or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Borrowers and Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). If the Administrative Agent receives a notice from (x) any Lender pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence or (y) a notice from Lenders constituting the Requisite

Lenders pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, then (1) the obligation of the Lenders (or in the case of any notice pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such Lender) to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender, (2) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a LIBOR Rate Loan then being requested by a Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Lenders (or in the case of any notice pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such Lender) shall make such Loan as (or continue such Loan as or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (3) the Lenders’ (or in the case of any notice pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, such Lender’s) obligation to maintain its outstanding LIBOR Rate 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 law, and (4) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination. Borrowers shall pay accrued interest on the amount so converted and all amounts due under Section 2.14(c) in accordance with the terms thereof due to such conversion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a LIBOR Rate Loan then being requested by a Borrower pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, such Borrower shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 2.14(c), to rescind such Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice as to all Lenders by giving notice (by telecopy) to Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Section 2.14(b) shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans as, or to convert Loans to, LIBOR Rate Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

(c) Compensation for Breakage or Non Commencement of Interest Periods. Borrowers shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid or calculated to be due and payable by such Lender to Lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBOR Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or reemployment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of any LIBOR Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Funding Notice, or a conversion to or continuation of any LIBOR Rate Loan does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any conversion of, any of its LIBOR Rate Loans occurs on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its LIBOR Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Borrowers.

(d) Booking of LIBOR Rate Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer LIBOR Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender.

(e) Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Rate Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.14 and under Section 2.15 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant LIBOR Rate Loans through the purchase of a LIBOR deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such LIBOR Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such LIBOR deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR 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 2.14 and under Section 2.15.

2.15 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on LIBOR Rate Loans.

(a) Compensation For Increased Costs. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.16 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), in the event that any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or governmental authority, in each case that becomes effective after the Closing Date, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive issued or made after the Closing Date by any central bank or other governmental or quasi governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law): (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any additional Tax (other than any Excluded Taxes of such Lender or any Tax that is the subject of Section 2.16) with respect to this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents or any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder; (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than any such reserve or other requirements with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans that are reflected in the definition of Adjusted LIBOR Rate); or (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office) or its obligations hereunder or the London interbank market; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with respect thereto; then, in any such case, Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender on an after tax basis for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable hereunder. Such Lender shall deliver to Borrowers (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts

owed to such Lender under this Section 2.15(a), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

(b) Capital Adequacy Adjustment. In the event that any Lender shall have determined that the adoption, effectiveness, phase in or applicability after the Closing Date of any law, rule or regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference to, such Lender’s Loans, or participations therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase in, applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within five Business Days after receipt by Borrowers from such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such controlling corporation on an after tax basis for such reduction. Such Lender shall deliver to Borrowers (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating the additional amounts owed to Lender under this Section 2.15(b), which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.

2.16 Taxes; Withholding, etc.

(a) Payments to Be Free and Clear. All sums payable by any Credit Party hereunder and under the other Credit Documents shall (except to the extent required by law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Indemnified Tax imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by or within the United States of America or any political subdivision in or of the United States of America or any other jurisdiction from or to which a payment is made by or on behalf of any Credit Party or by any federation or organization of which the United States of America or any such jurisdiction is a member at the time of payment.

(b) Withholding of Taxes. If any Credit Party or any other Person is required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any Indemnified Tax from any sum paid or payable under any of the Credit Documents: (i) Borrowers shall notify Administrative Agent of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as Borrowers become aware of it; (ii) Credit Parties shall pay any such Indemnified Tax to the relevant Governmental Authority before the date on which penalties attach thereto; (iii) the sum payable by such Credit Party in respect of which the relevant deduction or withholding is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that after any such deduction or withholding, Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and each of their Tax Related Persons receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required; and (iv) within thirty (30) days after making any

such deduction or withholding, Borrowers shall deliver to Administrative Agent evidence satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction or withholding and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority; provided, no such additional amount shall be required to be paid to any Lender under clause (iii) above except to the extent that any change after the Closing Date other than as a result of a change of lending office (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or after the effective date of the Assignment Agreement or Joinder Agreement pursuant to which such Lender became a Lender (in the case of each other Lender) in any such requirement for a deduction or withholding shall result in an increase in the rate of such deduction or withholding from that in effect at the Closing Date or at the date of such Assignment Agreement or Joinder Agreement, as the case may be, in respect of payments to such Lender, provided, further, that in the case of a Lender that becomes a Lender as a result of executing an Assignment Agreement or Joinder Agreement, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay additional amounts to such Lender to the extent such Taxes were, as of the effective date of such Assignment Agreement or Joinder Agreement, imposed at a rate that exceeds the rate in respect of those Taxes for which the assignor with respect to such Lender was entitled to any additional payments under this Section 2.16.

(c) Other Taxes. In addition, the Credit Parties shall pay all Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authorities in accordance with applicable law. The Credit Parties shall deliver to Administrative Agent official receipts or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent in respect of any Other Taxes payable hereunder promptly after payment of such Other Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall not pay any Other Taxes imposed as a result of an assignment or the sale of a participation by a Lender.

(d) Indemnification. The Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes and other Taxes paid or incurred by such Agent or such Lender or their respective Tax Related Persons, as the case may be, relating to, arising out of, or in connection with any Credit Document or any payment or transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, whether or not such taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in enforcing the provisions of this Section 2.16; provided, however, that the Credit Parties shall not be required to indemnify the Agents, Lenders and Participants for (i) any Taxes that would be excluded from a gross-up under Section 2.16(b), (ii) in duplication of Taxes covered by Sections 2.16(b) or (c), or (iii) Taxes on consolidated net income, other than in the case of (A) any matters addressed in Section 2.16(c) and any indemnification therefor and (B) any payments of expenses and costs made pursuant to this Section 2.16(d), in which instances such indemnification shall be made on an after-Tax basis, such that after all required deductions and payments of all Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Taxes on consolidated net income applicable to amounts covered by this Section 2.16(d)(iii)(A) or (B)), the Agents, the Lenders and each of their respective Tax Related Persons receives and retains an amount equal to the sum it would have received and retained had it not paid or incurred or been subject to such Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes or expenses and costs. A certificate from the relevant Lender or Agent, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of such Taxes shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(e) Evidence of Exemption From U.S. Withholding Tax. Each Lender that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to Administrative Agent for transmission to Borrowers, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof on the Closing Date) or on or prior to the date of the Assignment Agreement or Joinder Agreement pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Borrowers or Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), (i) two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8IMY or W-8ECI (or any successor forms), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Borrowers to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Credit Documents or is subject to deduction or withholding at a reduced rate, or (ii) if such Lender is not a “bank” or other Person described in Section 881(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code or a 10% shareholder of a Borrower (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code and cannot deliver Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI pursuant to clause (i) above, a Certificate Regarding Non Bank Status together with two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Borrowers to establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to any payments to such Lender of interest payable under any of the Credit Documents pursuant to the portfolio interest exemption. Each Lender that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Interval Revenue Code) for United States federal income tax purposes (a “U.S. Lender”) and is not an exempt recipient within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6049 4(c) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Company on or prior to the Closing Date (or if later, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement) two (2) original copies of the Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form), properly completed that such U.S. Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax, or otherwise provide that it is entitled to such an exemption. Each Lender required to deliver any forms, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding matters pursuant to this Section 2.16(e) hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by such Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, that such Lender shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent for transmission to Borrowers two new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8IMY or W-8ECI, or a Certificate Regarding Non Bank Status and two original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W 8BEN (or any successor form), as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, and such other documentation required under the Internal Revenue Code and reasonably requested by Borrowers to confirm or establish that such Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax with respect to payments to such Lender under the Credit Documents or is subject to deduction or withholding at a reduced rate, or notify Administrative Agent and Borrowers of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence. Borrowers shall not be required to pay

any additional amount to any Non-U.S. Lender under Section 2.16(b)(iii) if such Lender shall have failed to deliver the forms, certificates or other evidence referred to in the first sentence of this Section 2.16(e) that it is legally entitled to deliver; provided, if such Lender shall have satisfied the requirements of the first sentence of this Section 2.16(e) on the Closing Date or on the date of the Assignment Agreement or Joinder Agreement pursuant to which it became a Lender, as applicable, nothing in this last sentence of Section 2.16(e) shall relieve Borrowers of their obligation to pay any additional amounts pursuant this Section 2.16 in the event that, as a result of any change in any applicable law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Lender is not subject to withholding as described herein. Nothing in this Section 2.16 shall be construed to require a Lender, Agent or Participant to provide any forms or documentation that it is not legally entitled to provide.

2.17 Obligation to Mitigate. Each Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions, including any Affected Loans, through another office of such Lender, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Term Loan Commitments or Loans through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Term Loan Commitments or Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided, that such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.17 unless Borrowers agree to pay all costs and expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by any Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.17 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to Borrowers (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

2.18 Defaulting Lenders. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender, other than at the direction or request of any regulatory agency or authority, defaults (a “Defaulting Lender”) in its obligation to fund (a “Funding Default”) any Term Loan (in each case, a “Defaulted Loan”), then (a) during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” for purposes of voting on any matters (including the granting of any consents or waivers) with respect to any of the Credit Documents; (b) to the extent permitted by applicable law, until such time as the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero, (i) any voluntary prepayment of the Loans shall be applied to the Loans of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no Loans outstanding and the Exposure of such Defaulting Lender were zero, and (ii) any mandatory prepayment of the Loans shall be applied to the Loans of other

Lenders (but not to the Loans of such Defaulting Lender) as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Loans of such Defaulting Lender, it being understood and agreed that Borrowers shall be entitled to retain any portion of any mandatory prepayment of the Loans that is not paid to such Defaulting Lender solely as a result of the operation of the provisions of this clause (b); and (c) such Defaulting Lender’s Term Loan Commitment and outstanding Loans shall be excluded for purposes of calculating the Term Loan Commitment fee and any Payment Premium payable to Lenders in respect of any day during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, and such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Term Loan Commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.8 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Term Loan Commitment in respect of any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender and any Payment Premium. No Term Loan Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.18, performance by Borrowers of their obligations hereunder and the other Credit Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified as a result of any Funding Default or the operation of this Section 2.18. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.18 are in addition to other rights and remedies which Borrowers may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default and which Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default.

2.19 Removal or Replacement of a Lender. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i) any Lender (an “Increased Cost Lender”) shall give notice to Borrowers that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, (ii) the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect, and (iii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days after Borrowers’ request for such withdrawal; or (b) (i) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, (ii) the Default Period for such Defaulting Lender shall remain in effect, and (iii) such Defaulting Lender shall fail to cure the default as a result of which it has become a Defaulting Lender within five Business Days after Borrowers’ request that it cure such default; or (c) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.5(b), the consent of Requisite Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each such Increased Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (the “Terminated Lender”), Administrative Agent may, at the request of the Requisite Lenders (and which, in the case of an Increased Cost Lender, only after receiving written request from the Borrowers to remove such Increased Cost Lender (which notice may not be given by Borrowers if any Default or Event of Default is then continuing)), by giving written notice to Borrowers and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loans and its Commitments, if any, in full to one or more Eligible Assignees (each a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 and Terminated Lender shall pay any fees payable thereunder in connection with such assignment; provided, (1) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender and (B) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.8 (except in the case of a Defaulting Lender); (2) on the date of such assignment, Borrowers shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.14(c), 2.15 or 2.16; and (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender. Each Replacement Lender shall cure any existing Funding Default of the applicable Defaulting Lender.

2.20 Uncommitted New Term Loan Facility.

Company hereby exercises its right and obligation under the Original Credit Agreement to request the establishment of new term loan commitments (the “New Term Loan Commitments”) in accordance with this Section 2.20 in an amount equal to up to $1,000,000,000 in the aggregate for such New Term Loan Commitments. Such New Term Loan Commitments shall be allocated in accordance with the penultimate paragraph of this Section 2.20 to Persons who have submitted firm written expressions of interest to the Company prior to the Allocation Time (defined below) and who are either Lenders prior to such time, Administrative Agent or other Persons that are Eligible Assignees who hold bond Indebtedness of Company (other than Loans) in a principal amount of not less than an amount to be determined by the Lenders Steering Committee (each, a “New Term Loan Lender”); provided that (x) such expressions of interest from any prospective New Term Loan Lender shall be non-binding unless and until a Joinder Agreement is signed by such prospective New Term Loan Lender as described below and (y) any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the New Term Loan Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Term Loan Commitment.

By written notice to Administrative Agent and the Lenders Steering Committee, Company shall specify the date, which shall be not later than the New Term Loan Outside Date, on which Company proposes that the New Term Loan Commitments shall become binding and effective.

(a) Increased Amount Date Conditions. The New Term Loan Commitments shall become binding and effective on the date (the “Increased Amount Date”) that each of the following conditions has been satisfied or waived in accordance with Section 10.5:

(i) each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.3 shall be satisfied or waived pursuant to Section 10.5;

(ii) Lenders and their respective counsel shall have received originally executed copies of the favorable written opinions of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Xxxxxxx & Xxxx LLP, counsel for Credit Parties, substantially in the form delivered on the Closing Date, and the favorable written opinions of local counsel for Credit Parties in each jurisdiction in which any Credit Party is a registered organization under the UCC, each dated

as of the Increased Amount Date and covering such matters as Administrative Agent may reasonably request and otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent (and each Credit Party hereby instructs such counsel to deliver such opinions to Agents and Lenders);

(iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate from the Company certifying that (x) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New Term Loan Commitments; (y) the representations and warranties contained herein and in the other Credit Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (except such representations and warranties that by their terms are qualified by materiality or a Material Adverse Effect, which representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the Increased Amount Date to the same extent as though made on and as of that date (or to the extent such representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date on and as of such earlier date); and (z) since the Closing Date, the Organizational Documents, signature and incumbency certificates and resolutions delivered pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Original Credit Agreement have not been amended, rescinded or otherwise supplemented or modified; and

(iv) the Administrative Agent shall have received one or more Joinder Agreements (which in the aggregate shall be for an amount equal to the New Term Loan Commitments) by which New Term Loan Commitments shall be effected and each such Joinder Agreement shall be executed and delivered by Company, Administrative Agent and each New Term Loan Lender (and Company shall be obligated to execute such Joinder Agreements if the other parties thereto execute them), and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.16(e).

Upon satisfaction or waiver of such conditions, each New Term Loan Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to its New Term Loan Commitment and the New Term Loans to be made by it pursuant thereto.

(b) Credit Date Conditions. The obligation of each New Term Loan Lender to make any New Term Loan on the applicable Credit Date (which Credit Date shall not be before August 3, 2009) is subject to the satisfaction, or waiver in accordance with Section 10.5, of the following conditions on or before such Credit Date:

(i) each of the conditions set forth in Sections 3.2 shall be satisfied as of such Credit Date;

(ii) Company shall make any payments required pursuant to Sections 2.8 and 2.14(c) in connection with the New Term Loan Commitments; and

(iii) each Borrower shall have delivered (x) a properly executed Funding Notice in accordance with Section 2.1(b), (y) an originally executed Closing Date Certificate, dated as of the applicable Credit Date, and (z) an officer’s certificate substantially in the form of the officer’s certificate delivered pursuant to Section 3.3(c), dated as of the applicable Credit Date; and

(iv) If such New Term Loan Lender is Barclays Bank PLC, Barclays Bank PLC shall have accepted an Institutional Allocation Confirmation executed and delivered by each person identified to it by the Lenders Steering Committee as having been allocated New Term Loans pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of this Section 2.20, and each such person shall have provided written confirmation to Barclays Bank PLC that each of the Credit Documents is acceptable to it and such other matters as may be reasonably requested by Barclays Bank PLC or, alternatively, Barclays Bank PLC shall have received such other documentation that it, in its sole discretion, shall require.

On the date set forth in the applicable Funding Notice delivered by Company pursuant to Section 2.1(b) (which Company shall be obligated to deliver) on or following the Increased Amount Date and on or prior to the New Term Loan Outside Date, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.20(b), each New Term Loan Lender shall make a Loan to Company (a “New Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its New Term Loan Commitment. If the condition precedent set forth in Section 2.20(b)(iv) above has not been satisfied, then Barclays Bank PLC shall fund only that portion of New Term Loan Commitments with respect to which such condition precedent is satisfied (which shall be that portion of its New Term Loan Commitments allocated to Persons who have executed and delivered such Institutional Allocation Confirmations and delivered such written confirmation). If an Institutional Allocation Confirmation and written confirmation is later received from such Persons, then the Company may deliver a subsequent Funding Notice with respect to such New Term Loan Commitments, on any date not later than the New Term Loan Outside Date, and upon satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 2.20(b) above, such additional New Term Loan Commitments shall be funded.

Administrative Agent shall notify Lenders promptly upon receipt of Company’s proposed notice of the Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof the New Term Loan Commitments and the New Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, pursuant to the second paragraph of this Section 2.20.

The terms and provisions of the New Term Loans and New Term Loan Commitments shall be identical to the Initial Term Loans and Initial Term Loan Commitments, respectively, in all respects. The Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such technical amendments or modifications to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, as mutually determined by Lenders Steering Committee and Administrative Agent, to effect the provision of this Section 2.20 (including the requirement that the terms and provisions of the New Term Loans and the Term Loan Commitments be identical to the Initial Term Loans and Initial Term Loan Commitments in all respects), without constituting an amendment, modification or waiver subject to the provisions of Section 10.5.

New Term Loan Commitments may be established only on one single occasion pursuant to this Section 2.20. Company shall select a date and time for such occasion on or prior to the Increased Amount Date and notify Administrative Agent and Lenders Steering Committee of such date and time; provided that such date is a Business Day, such time shall be during normal business hours in New York City and shall otherwise be reasonably acceptable to

Administrative Agent and Lenders Steering Committee (the “Allocation Time”). If at the Allocation Time the aggregate amount of prospective New Term Loan Commitments is in excess of $1,000,000,000, the New Term Loan Commitments shall be allocated by the Lenders Steering Committee among the prospective New Term Loan Lenders based on such factors as shall be determined by the Lenders Steering Committee in its sole discretion.

Each Lender’s New Term Loan Commitment shall terminate immediately and without further action on the earlier of (i) the applicable Credit Date after giving effect to the funding of such Commitments on such date and (ii) the close of business in New York City on the New Term Loan Outside Date.

4.19 Employee Benefit Plans. Company, each of its subsidiaries and each of their respective ERISA Affiliates are in material compliance with all applicable provisions and requirements of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, and have performed all their obligations under each Employee Benefit Plan. Each Employee Benefit Plan which is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code has received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service indicating that such Employee Benefit Plan is so qualified or has an application pending for such qualification, and nothing has occurred subsequent to the issuance of such determination letter which would cause such Employee Benefit Plan to lose its qualified status. No liability to the PBGC (other than required premium payments) or the Internal Revenue Service has been or is expected to be incurred by Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates with respect to any Employee Benefit Plan. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur. Except to the

extent required under Section 4980B of the Internal Revenue Code or similar state laws, or otherwise funded entirely by the participants thereof, or accrued for on the financial statements of Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, no Employee Benefit Plan provides health or welfare benefits (through the purchase of insurance or otherwise) for any retired or former employee of Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates. The present value of the aggregate benefit liabilities under each Pension Plan subject to Title IV of ERISA sponsored, maintained or contributed to by Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates (determined as of the most recent valuation date on the basis of the actuarial assumptions specified for funding purposes pursuant to Section 430 of the Internal Revenue Code in the most recent actuarial valuation for such Pension Plan), did not exceed the aggregate current value of the assets of such Pension Plan by more than $10,000,000 in the aggregate. As of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan for which the actuarial report is available, the potential liability of Company, its subsidiaries and their respective ERISA Affiliates for a complete or partial withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 or Section 4205 of ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete or partial withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, is zero. Company, each of its subsidiaries and each of their ERISA Affiliates have complied with the requirements of Section 515 of ERISA with respect to each Multiemployer Plan and are not in material “default” (as defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with respect to payments to a Multiemployer Plan.

4.23 Disclosure. No representation or warranty of any Credit Party contained in any Credit Document, none of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2008 or any subsequent filings by Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and none of the reports, financial statements or other documents, certificates or written statements furnished to Lenders by or on behalf of Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact (known to Company, in the case of any document not furnished by either of them) necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the

same were made. There are no agreements, instruments and corporate or other restrictions to which any Credit Party is subject and there are no facts known (or which should upon the reasonable exercise of diligence be known) to Company (other than matters of a general economic nature) that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and that have not been disclosed herein or in such other documents, certificates and statements furnished to Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

4.24 Terrorism Laws and FCPA. Each Credit Party is in compliance, in all material respects, with the Terrorism Laws.

4.25 Insurance. The properties of Company and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries are adequately insured with financially sound and reputable insurers and in such amounts, with such deductibles and covering such risks and otherwise on terms and conditions as are customarily carried or maintained by Persons of established reputation of similar size and engaged in similar businesses and such insurance complies with the requirements of Section 5.5.

4.26 Common Enterprise. The successful operation and condition of each of the Credit Parties is dependent on the continued successful performance of the functions of the group of the Credit Parties as a whole and the successful operation of each of the Credit Parties is dependent on the successful performance and operation of each other Credit Party. Each Credit Party expects to derive benefit (and its board of directors or other governing body has determined that it may reasonably be expected to derive benefit), directly and indirectly, from (i) successful operations of each of the other Credit Parties and (ii) the credit extended by the Lenders to the Borrowers hereunder, both in their separate capacities and as members of the group of companies. Each Credit Party has determined that execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement and any other Credit Documents to be executed by such Credit Party is within its purpose, will be of direct and indirect benefit to such Credit Party, and is in its best interest.

4.27 Security Interest in Collateral. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents create legal and valid Liens on all the Collateral in favor of Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Collateral Agent and the Lenders, and, to the extent required by the Post-Closing Collateral Procedures and the Collateral Documents, such Liens constitute perfected and continuing Liens on the Collateral, securing the Obligations, enforceable against the applicable Credit Party and all third parties, and having priority over all other Liens on the Collateral except in the case of Liens permitted under clauses (b) through (g), (i), (j), (l), (r), (v), (w), (x), (z) and (to the extent it relates to the foregoing) (aa) of Section 6.2.

otherwise violate the rights of any other Person, except as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.29 Permits, etc. Each Credit Party has, and is in compliance with, all permits, licenses, authorizations, approvals, entitlements and accreditations required for such Person lawfully to own, lease, manage or operate, or to acquire, each business currently owned, leased, managed or operated, or to be acquired, by such Person, which, if not obtained, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No condition exists or event has occurred which, in itself or with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both, would result in the suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or non-renewal of any such permit, license, authorization, approval, entitlement or accreditation, and there is no claim that any thereof is not in full force and effect, except, to the extent any such condition, event or claim could not be reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(iii) as soon as practicable following the sending or receipt thereof by Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, a copy of any and all written communications with respect to (1) any Environmental Claims that, individually or in the aggregate, have a reasonable possibility of giving rise to a Material Adverse Effect, (2) any Release required to be reported to any federal, state or local governmental or regulatory agency, and (3) any request for information from any governmental agency that suggests such agency is investigating whether Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may be potentially responsible for any Hazardous Materials Activity;

(v) with reasonable promptness, such other documents and information as from time to time may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in relation to any matters disclosed pursuant to this Section 5.9(a).

(b) Hazardous Materials Activities, etc. Each Credit Party shall promptly take, and shall cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries promptly to take, any and all actions necessary to (i) cure any violation of applicable Environmental Laws by such Credit Party or its Restricted Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) make an appropriate response to any Environmental Claim against such Credit Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and discharge any obligations it may have to any Person thereunder where failure to do so could reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Right of Access and Inspection. With respect to any event described in Section 5.9(a), or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or if Administrative Agent reasonably believes that Company or any Restricted Subsidiary has breached any representation, warranty or covenant related to environmental matters (including those contained in Sections 4.11, 4.14, 5.8 or 5.9):

(i) Administrative Agent and its representatives shall have the right, but not the obligation or duty, to enter the facilities of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary at reasonable times for the purposes of observing such facilities. Such access shall include, at the reasonable request of Administrative Agent, access to relevant documents and employees of Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries and to their outside representatives, to the extent necessary to obtain necessary information related to the event at issue. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Credit Parties shall conduct such tests and investigations on such facilities or relevant portion thereof, as reasonably requested by Administrative Agent, including the preparation of such sampling or analysis as determined to be necessary under the circumstances by a qualified environmental engineer or consultant. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and if a Credit Party does not undertake such tests and investigations in a reasonably timely manner following the request of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may hire an independent engineer, at the Credit Parties’ expense, to conduct such tests and investigations. Administrative Agent will make all reasonable efforts to conduct any such tests and investigations so as to avoid interfering with the operation of the facility.

(ii) Any observations, tests or investigations of the facilities by or on behalf of Administrative Agent shall be solely for the purpose of protecting the Lenders security interests and rights under the Credit Documents. The exercise of Administrative Agent’s rights under this Subsection (c) shall not constitute a waiver of any default of any

Credit Party or impose any liability on Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders. In no event will any observation, test or investigation by or on behalf of Administrative Agent be a representation that Hazardous Materials are or are not present in, on or under any of the facilities, or that there has been or will be compliance with any Environmental Law and Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty to any party regarding the truth, accuracy or completeness of any report or findings with regard thereto. Neither any Credit Party nor any other party is entitled to rely on any observation, test or investigation by or on behalf of Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and the Lenders owe no duty of care to protect any Credit Party or any other party against, or to inform any Credit Party or any other party of, any Hazardous Materials or any other adverse condition affecting any of the facilities. Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, disclose to the applicable Credit Party, or to any other party if so required by law, any report or findings made as a result of, or in connection with, its observations, tests or investigations. If a request is made of Administrative Agent to disclose any such report or finding to any third party, then Administrative Agent shall endeavor to give the applicable Credit Party prior notice of such disclosure and afford such Credit Party the opportunity to object or defend against such disclosure at its own and sole cost; provided, that the failure of Administrative Agent to give any such notice or afford such Credit Party the opportunity to object or defend against such disclosure shall not result in any liability to Administrative Agent. Each Credit Party acknowledges that it may be obligated to notify relevant Governmental Authorities regarding the results of any observation, test or investigation disclosed to such Credit Party, and that such reporting requirements are site and fact-specific and are to be evaluated by such Credit Party without advice or assistance from Administrative Agent.

(d) If counsel to Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries reasonably determines that provision to Administrative Agent of a document otherwise required to be provided pursuant to this Section 5.9 (or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document relating to environmental matters) would jeopardize an applicable attorney-client or work product privilege pertaining to such document, then Company or its Restricted Subsidiary shall not be obligated to deliver such document to Administrative Agent but shall provide Administrative Agent with a notice identifying the author and recipient of such document and generally describing the contents of the document. Upon request of Administrative Agent, Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall take all reasonable steps necessary to provide Administrative Agent with the factual information contained in any such privileged document.

5.10 Restricted Subsidiaries. In the event that any Person becomes a Wholly-Owned Domestic Subsidiary of Company (including by such Person ceasing to be excluded from the definition of “Restricted Subsidiary”), Company shall (a) concurrently with such Person becoming a Wholly-Owned Domestic Subsidiary cause such Wholly-Owned Domestic Subsidiary to become a Guarantor hereunder and a Grantor under the Collateral Agreement by executing and delivering to Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent a Counterpart Agreement, and (b) take all such actions and execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all such documents, instruments, agreements, and certificates as are similar to those described in Sections 3.1(b) and 3.1(d), as well as duly executed Control Agreements covering any applicable Controlled Account.

With respect to each such Restricted Subsidiary, Company shall promptly send to Administrative Agent written notice setting forth with respect to such Person (i) the date on which such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary of Company, and (ii) all of the data required to be set forth in Schedules 4.1 and 4.2 with respect to all Restricted Subsidiaries of Company; provided, such written notice shall be deemed to supplement Schedules 4.1 and 4.2 for all purposes hereof.

SECTION 7. GUARANTY

7.1 Guaranty of the Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2, Guarantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Beneficiaries the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code , 11 U.S.C. §362(a)) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary of this Agreement, of the Collateral Documents, or of any other Credit Document, it is intended that the Guaranties and the liens and security interests granted by Guarantors not constitute a “Fraudulent Conveyance”. For purposes hereof, “Fraudulent Conveyance” means a fraudulent conveyance under section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under the provisions of any applicable fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer law or similar law of any state, nation or other governmental unit, as in effect from time to time. The parties hereto agree that, if the Guaranties or any liens or security interests would, but for the application of this Section 7.1, constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance, the Guaranties and each such lien and security interest shall be valid and enforceable only to the maximum extent that would not cause the Guaranties or such lien or security interest to constitute a Fraudulent Conveyance.

7.2 Contribution by Guarantors. All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceed its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient

to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor, to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by, (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the obligations guaranteed. “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law; provided, that solely for purposes of calculating the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 7.2, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including in respect of this Section 7.2), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 7.2. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. The allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 7.2 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 7.2.

7.3 Payment by Guarantors. Subject to Section 7.2, Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of Company to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §362(a)), Guarantors will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash, to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for Company’s becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Company for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to Beneficiaries as aforesaid.

7.4 Liability of Guarantors Absolute. Each Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

(a) this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectibility. This Guaranty is a primary obligation of each Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety;

(b) Administrative Agent may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between Company and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

(c) the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Borrowers and the obligations of any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the obligations of Borrowers, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against Borrowers or any of such other guarantors and whether or not a Borrower is joined in any such action or actions;

(d) payment by any Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid; and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Administrative Agent is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce any Guarantor’s covenant to pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(e) any Beneficiary, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Beneficiary in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Beneficiary may have against any such security, in each case as such Beneficiary in its discretion may determine consistent herewith or any other applicable Credit Document, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any

such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against Borrowers or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi) exercise any other rights available to it under the Credit Documents; and

(f) this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Credit Documents, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Credit Documents, any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Credit Document, such agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Credit Documents or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any Beneficiary’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set offs or counterclaims which Borrowers may allege or assert against any Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

7.5 Waivers by Guarantors. Each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Beneficiaries: (a) any right to require any Beneficiary, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against Borrowers, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Borrowers, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of Borrowers or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Borrowers or any other Guarantor including any

defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Borrowers or any other Guarantor from any cause other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder, or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to Borrowers and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 7.4 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof.

7.6 Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, etc. Until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated, each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Borrowers or any other Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Borrowers with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Borrowers, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary. In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated, each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations, including any such right of contribution as contemplated by Section 7.2. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against Borrowers or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Beneficiary may have against Borrowers, to all right, title and interest any Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations shall not

have been finally and indefeasibly paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.

7.7 Subordination of Other Obligations. Any Indebtedness of Borrowers or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof.

7.8 Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments shall have terminated. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

7.9 Authority of Guarantors or Borrowers. It is not necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or Borrowers or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them. Notwithstanding any provision of Credit Documents to the contrary (including any provision that would otherwise apply notwithstanding other provisions or that is the beneficiary of other overriding language) except as expressly approved by Company, (i) no more than 65% of the Voting Capital Stock and 100% of the Non-Voting Capital Stock of any Foreign Subsidiary other than Aerospace shall be pledged or similarly hypothecated to guarantee or support any obligation of the Borrowers, (ii) no Foreign Subsidiary shall guarantee or support any obligation of the Borrowers (except as contemplated by clause (iii) below) and (iii) no security or similar interest shall be granted in the assets of any Foreign Subsidiary (other than a pledge or hypothecation by each Foreign Grantor (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) of its interests in “Foreign Grantor Collateral” (as defined in the Collateral Agreement) or collateral of a substantially similar scope provided under a Foreign Law Pledge Agreement, which security or similar interest guarantees or supports any obligation of a Borrower; provided any such incremental collateral shall not trigger any material tax obligations of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. The parties agree that any pledge, guaranty or security or similar interest made or granted in contravention of this Section 7.9 shall be void ab initio.

7.10 Financial Condition of Borrowers. Any Credit Extension may be made to Borrowers or continued from time to time without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of Borrowers at the time of any such grant or continuation. No Beneficiary shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with any Guarantor its assessment, or any Guarantor’s assessment, of the financial condition of Borrowers. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Borrowers on a continuing basis concerning the financial condition of Borrowers and its ability to perform its obligations under the Credit Documents, and each Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Borrowers and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk

of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of any Beneficiary to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of Borrowers now known or hereafter known by any Beneficiary.

7.11 Bankruptcy, etc.

(a) So long as any Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, no Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent acting pursuant to the instructions of Requisite Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency case or proceeding against Borrowers or any other Guarantor. The obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Borrowers or any other Guarantor or by any defense which Borrowers or any other Guarantor may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or administrative body resulting from any such proceeding.

(b) Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding referred to in clause (a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Guaranteed Obligations if such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations because it is the intention of Guarantors and Beneficiaries that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by Guarantors pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order which may relieve Borrowers of any portion of such Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantors will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar person to pay Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of Administrative Agent in respect of, any such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced.

(c) In the event that all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by Borrowers, the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall continue and remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from any Beneficiary as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise, and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder.

7.12 Discharge of Guaranty Upon Sale of Guarantor. If all of the Capital Stock of any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest hereunder shall be sold or otherwise disposed of (including by merger or consolidation) in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, the Guaranty of such Guarantor or such successor in interest, as the case may be, hereunder shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Beneficiary or any other Person effective as of the time of such Asset Sale.

7.13 Taxes. The provisions of Section 2.16 shall apply, mutatis mutandi, to the Guarantors and payments thereby.

SECTION 9. AGENTS

9.1 Appointment of Agents. Barclays Capital is hereby appointed the Syndication Agent hereunder, and each Lender hereby authorizes Barclays Capital to act as the Syndication Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Credit Documents. Barclays Bank is hereby appointed the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Credit Documents and each Lender hereby authorizes Barclays Bank to act as the Administrative Agent and as the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Credit Documents. Each Agent hereby agrees to act in its capacity as such upon the express conditions contained herein and the other Credit Documents, as applicable. The provisions of this Section 9 (other than as expressly provided herein) are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders and no Credit Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions of this Section 9 (other than as expressly provided herein). In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Syndication Agent, without consent of or notice to any party hereto, may assign any and all of its rights or obligations hereunder to any of its Affiliates. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Credit Document, each of the Arranger and the Syndication Agent are named as such for recognition purposes only, and in their respective capacities as such shall have no duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or any other Credit Document; it being understood and agreed that each of the Arranger and Syndication Agent shall be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of the Agents provided herein and in the other Credit Documents and all of the other benefits of this Section 9. Without limitation of the foregoing, neither the Arranger nor the Syndication Agent shall, by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender, Credit Party or any other Person.

9.2 Powers and Duties. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent to take such action on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Credit Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Agent shall have only those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified herein and the other Credit Documents. Each Agent may exercise such powers, rights and remedies and perform such duties by or through its agents or employees. No Agent shall have, by reason hereof or any of the other Credit Documents, a fiduciary relationship or other implied duties in respect of any Lender; and nothing herein or any of the other Credit Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon any Agent any obligations in respect hereof or any of the other Credit Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under the agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market

custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

9.3 General Immunity.

(a) No Responsibility for Certain Matters. No Agent shall be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency hereof or any other Credit Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statements or in any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any other documents furnished or made by any Agent to Lenders or by or on behalf of any Credit Party to any Agent or any Lender in connection with the Credit Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Credit Party or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall any Agent be required to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Credit Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of Default or Default or as to the value, sufficiency or perfection of any Collateral or as to the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 3 or elsewhere herein (other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent) or to inspect the properties, books or records of Company or any of its subsidiaries or to make any disclosures with respect to the foregoing. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall not have any liability arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans.

(b) Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to the Lenders (i) for any action taken or omitted by any Agent (A) under or in connection with any of the Credit Documents or (B) with the consent or at the request of the Requisite Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement) except to the extent caused by such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) for any failure of any Credit Party to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document. No Agent shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose or be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Company or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Each Agent shall be entitled to refrain from any act or the taking of any action (including the failure to take an action) in connection herewith or any of the other Credit Documents or from the exercise of any power, discretion or authority vested in it hereunder or thereunder unless and until such Agent shall have received instructions in respect thereof from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.5) and, upon receipt of such instructions from Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders, as the case may be), such Agent shall be entitled to act or (where so instructed) refrain from acting, or to exercise such power, discretion or authority, in accordance with such instructions and shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable law. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any communication, instrument or

document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person or Persons, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of attorneys (who may be attorneys for Company and its subsidiaries), accountants, experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting hereunder or any of the other Credit Documents in accordance with the instructions of Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.5).

(c) Notice of Default. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, and until written notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to such Agent by a Credit Party or a Lender. In the event that the Administrative Agent shall receive such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders, provided that failure to give such notice shall not result in any liability on the part of the Administrative Agent.

9.4 Agents Entitled to Act as Lender. The agency hereby created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or impose any duties or obligations upon, any Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender hereunder. With respect to its Loans, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term “Lender” shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity. Any Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other business with Company or any of its Affiliates as if it were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrowers for services in connection herewith and otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that pursuant to such activities, the Agents or their Affiliates may receive information regarding any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Credit Party or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Agents and their Affiliates shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. In addition, pursuant to such activities, the Agents or their Affiliates may have economic interests that could conflict with the Lenders.

9.5 Lenders’ Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment.

(a) Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Company and its subsidiaries in connection with Credit Extensions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Company and its subsidiaries. No Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to Lenders. Each Lender agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory

services of any nature or respect or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to any Lender in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to an Assignment Agreement or a Joinder Agreement or by the funding of any New Term Loans, shall be deemed to have (i) acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Credit Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent, Requisite Lenders or Lenders, as applicable on the Closing Date or as of the date of funding of such New Term Loans, and (ii) specifically consented to and acknowledged Sections 9.11 and 10.27.

(c) Each Lender represents and warrants that, as of the Closing Date, the date hereof, or such later date on which such Lender delivers a signature page to an Assignment Agreement or a Joinder Agreement, the Borrowers have provided such Lender with adequate access to financial and other information concerning Company and its subsidiaries and such Lender has been able to obtain from the Borrowers any additional information necessary to make an informed decision regarding the creditworthiness of the Borrowers and their subsidiaries.

9.6 Right to Indemnity. Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to indemnify each Agent, to the extent that such Agent shall not have been reimbursed by any Credit Party (and without limiting its obligation to do so), for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including counsel fees and disbursements) or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in exercising its powers, rights and remedies or performing its duties hereunder or under the other Credit Documents or otherwise in its capacity as such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. If any indemnity furnished to any Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of such Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, such Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished; provided, that in no event shall this sentence require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof; and provided, further, that this sentence shall not be deemed to require any Lender to indemnify any Agent against any liability, obligation, loss, damage, penalty, action, judgment, suit, cost, expense or disbursement described in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence.

9.7 Successor Administrative Agent; Collateral Agent.

(a) Administrative Agent shall have the right to resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and Company and Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may be removed at any time after such notice of resignation from the Administrative Agent by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing delivered to Company and Administrative Agent and signed by Requisite Lenders. The Administrative

Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to appoint a financial institution to act as Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent hereunder, subject to the reasonable satisfaction of the Requisite Lenders. If Administrative Agent provides notice of its resignation, Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the 10th Business Day after such notice of resignation. Upon any such notice of resignation or any such removal, if a successor Administrative Agent has not already been appointed by the retiring Administrative Agent, Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to Company, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If neither Requisite Lenders nor Administrative Agent have appointed a successor Administrative Agent, then the Requisite Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided, that until a successor Administrative Agent is so appointed by Requisite Lenders or Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent, by notice to Company and Requisite Lenders, may, but is not required to, retain its role as the Collateral Agent under any Collateral Document. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held under the Collateral Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under the Credit Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring or removed Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. Except as provided above, any resignation or removal of Barclays Bank or its successor as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute the resignation or removal of Barclays Bank or its successor as the Collateral Agent. After any retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent hereunder. Any successor Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to this Section 9 shall, upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor the Collateral Agent for all purposes hereunder. If Barclays Bank PLC or its successor as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section has resigned as Administrative Agent but retained its role as the Collateral Agent and no successor the Collateral Agent has become the Collateral Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, Barclays Bank PLC or its successor may resign as the Collateral Agent upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to Company and Lenders.

(b) In addition to the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days’ prior written notice thereof to Lenders and the Grantors. Administrative Agent shall have the right to appoint a financial institution as the Collateral Agent hereunder, subject to the consent of the Requisite Lenders (not to be unreasonably withheld) and the Collateral Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earlier of (i) the acceptance of such successor Collateral Agent by the Requisite Lenders or (ii) the 30th day after such notice of resignation. Requisite Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to Administrative Agent, to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. Upon the acceptance

of any appointment as the Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, that the successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Collateral Documents, and the retiring or removed Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder or under the Collateral Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Collateral Documents, and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created under the Collateral Documents, whereupon such retiring or removed Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the Collateral Documents. After any retiring or removed Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as the Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement or the Collateral Documents while it was the Collateral Agent hereunder.

(c) Delegation of Duties. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral 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 Affiliates. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of this Section 9.7(c) and of Section 9.6 shall apply to any of the Affiliates of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable. All of the rights, benefits, and privileges (including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions) of this Section 9.7(c) and of Section 9.6 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as sub-agent as if such sub-agent and Affiliates were named herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each sub-agent appointed by the Administrative Agent, (i) such sub-agent shall be a third party beneficiary under this Agreement with respect to all such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) and shall have all of the rights and benefits of a third party beneficiary, including an independent right of action to enforce such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) directly, without the consent or joinder of any other Person, against any or all of Credit Parties and the Lenders, (ii) such rights, benefits and privileges (including exculpatory rights and rights to indemnification) shall not be modified or amended without the consent of such sub-agent, and (iii) such sub-agent shall only have obligations to the Administrative Agent and not to any Credit Party, Lender or any other Person and no Credit Party, Lender or any other Person shall have any rights, directly or indirectly, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, against such sub-agent.

9.8 Collateral Documents and Guaranty.

(a) Agents under Collateral Documents and Guaranty. Each Secured Party hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of Secured Parties with respect to the Guaranty, the Collateral and the Collateral Documents. Subject to Section 10.5, without further written consent or authorization from any Secured Party, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable may execute any documents or instruments necessary to (i) in connection with a sale or disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement, release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of such sale or other disposition of assets or to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.5) have otherwise consented or (ii) release any Guarantor from the Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.12 or with respect to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.5) have otherwise consented provided that the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, may require (and may fully rely on) a certificate of Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as applicable, be delivered prior to any such releases that identifies the relevant Collateral or Guaranties and represents and warrants that such sale, disposition or transaction is in compliance with this Agreement.

(b) Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guaranty. Anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Requisite Lenders) on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Requisite Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.

(c) Release of Collateral and Guaranties, Termination of Credit Documents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Credit Document, when all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet due and payable) have been paid in full, all Commitments have terminated or expired or been cancelled, upon request of Company, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations provided for in any Credit Document. Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to

101

the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Company or any of its subsidiaries, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Company or any of its subsidiaries or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

9.9 Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law or any other judicial proceeding relative to Company, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Company) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties (including fees, disbursements and other expenses of counsel) allowed in such judicial proceeding and (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same. Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or other Secured Party any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or other Secured Party to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of such Person or in any such proceeding.

9.10 Arrangers. Except as otherwise set forth herein, any arrangers shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement (or any other Credit Document) other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, any such arranger shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any other Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any arranger in deciding to enter into this Agreement and each other Credit Document to which it is a party or in taking or not taking action hereunder or thereunder.

9.11 Lenders Steering Committee.

(a) The “Lenders Steering Committee” shall be a committee which shall initially consist of the six members identified on Schedule 9.11 hereof, and shall from time to time include Persons that become a member of the Lenders Steering Committee pursuant to this Section 9.11 (each a “Steering Lender”) and shall not include any other Person, except as set forth below.

(b) Any additional Person may be added to the Lenders Steering Committee with the consent of not fewer than a majority of the existing Steering Lenders, provided that such additional Person (together with its affiliates) holds (i) Exposure of not less

(c) Any Steering Lender may resign from the Lenders Steering Committee at any time, and any member of the Lenders Steering Committee that, at any time, ceases to meet each of the Continuing Eligibility Criteria (as defined below) other than solely as a result of tendering into the Tender Offer will automatically be deemed to have resigned from the Lenders Steering Committee. As used herein, “Continuing Eligibility Criteria” means, with respect to any Steering Lender, (i) that such Steering Lender (or its affiliates) holds Exposure of not less than $100,000,000 in principal amount of the Loans and (ii) that such Steering Lender (together with its affiliates) retains ownership of at least 50.0% of the aggregate bond Indebtedness of Company (other than Loans) that such Steering Lender and its affiliates held as of the date that such Steering Lender became a member of the Lenders Steering Committee.

(d) In the event of the resignation or deemed resignation of any Steering Lender from the Lenders Steering Committee, a majority in number of the remaining Steering Lenders may select a replacement member, provided that such replacement member meets the Initial Eligibility Criteria.

(f) The Approved Restructuring Plan shall not require Company or any of its subsidiaries to engage in any asset sale or other transaction specifically with any Steering Lender or its affiliates, it being understood that, (i) the Approved Restructuring Plan may include asset sales and no Steering Lender shall, solely by virtue of being a Steering Lender, be prohibited from bidding on any applicable assets and (ii) the Approved Restructuring Plan may include transactions in which Steering Lenders may participate in their capacities as holders of Indebtedness of Company to be restructured pursuant to such plan.

(g) The role of the Lenders Steering Committee shall be limited to the rights and responsibilities specifically identified to the Lenders Steering Committee in this Agreement, including without limitation the following: (i) to approve the Approved Restructuring Plan and any changes thereto; (ii) to approve certain material asset sales prior to the adoption by Company of an Approved Restructuring Plan, in accordance with Section 5.17; (iii) to request the formation of one or more Intermediate Holding Companies in accordance

(i) Neither the Lenders Steering Committee nor any member thereof nor any of their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, partners, directors, shareholders, trustees, employees, representatives, agents, advisors and attorneys of any member of the Lenders Steering Committee shall be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or omitted by the Lenders Steering Committee except to the extent caused by the Lenders Steering Committee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Neither the Lenders Steering Committee nor any member thereof shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, have any duty to disclose or be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Company or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Lenders Steering Committee or any Affiliates of any member of the Lenders Steering Committee in any capacity.

10.3 Indemnity.

(a) In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to Section 10.2, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, each Credit Party (other than each Foreign Grantor) agrees to defend (subject to Indemnitees’ selection of counsel), indemnify, pay and hold harmless, each Agent and Lender, each member of the Lenders Steering Committee, their respective Affiliates and their respective officers, partners, directors, shareholders, trustees, employees, representatives, agents, advisors and attorneys of each Agent and each Lender and member of the Lenders Steering Committee (each, an “Indemnitee”), from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities, IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED BY OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY, OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF SUCH AGENT, LENDER OR MEMBER OF THE LENDERS STEERING COMMITTEE; provided, no Credit Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnitee hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee or its related Persons as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable order. To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 10.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are violative of any law or public policy, the applicable Credit Party shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against Lenders, Agents, the members of the Lenders Steering Committee and their respective Affiliates, partners, directors, shareholders, trustees, employees, representatives, agents, advisors or attorneys, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Credit Party hereby waives, releases and agrees not to xxx upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

(d) To the extent a Borrower for any reason fails to pay any amount required under Section 10.2 or paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 10.3 to be paid by it to the

107

Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Collateral Agent, or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing within the time specified above, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), or such Affiliate, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (such indemnity shall be effective whether or not the related losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses are incurred or asserted by any party hereto or any third party); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), in its capacity as such, or against any Affiliate of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph (d) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.12.

Each Lender further agrees that in the event a distribution to the Secured Parties is made that does not conform to the provisions of Section 2.12(h), each Lender agrees that it shall turn over to the Agents all amounts payable (or which would have been payable to Agents or made in conformity with Section 2.12(h)) to such Agents pursuant to Section 2.12(h).

In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default each Lender and its respective Affiliates is hereby authorized by each Credit Party at any time or from time to time subject to the consent of Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), without notice to any Credit Party or to any other Person (other than Administrative Agent), any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts (in whatever currency)) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party (in whatever currency) against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of any Credit Party to such Lender hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto or with any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder, (b) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 and although such obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured or (c) such obligation or liability is owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligation or such Indebtedness.

10.5 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Requisite Lenders’ Consent. Subject to Sections 10.5(b) and 10.5(c), no amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Credit Documents, or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of the Borrowers and (i) in the case of this Agreement, Administrative Agent and the Requisite Lenders or (ii) in the case of any other Credit Document, Administrative Agent and, if party thereto, Collateral Agent, with the consent of the Requisite Lenders.

108

(b) Affected Lenders’ Consent. Without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) that would be affected thereby, no amendment, modification, termination, or consent shall be effective if the effect thereof would:

(i) extend the scheduled final maturity of any Loan or Note of such Lender;

(ii) waive, reduce or postpone any scheduled repayment due such Lender (but not prepayment);

(iii) reduce the rate of interest on any Loan of such Lender (other than any amendment to the definition of “Default Rate” (which may be affected by consent of the Requisite Lenders) and any waiver of any increase in the interest rate applicable to any Loan pursuant to Section 2.7) or any fee payable hereunder;

(iv) extend the time for payment of any such interest or fees to such Lender;

(v) reduce the principal amount of any Loan;

(vi) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of this Section 10.5(b) or Section 10.5(c);

(vii) amend Section 2.13 or the definition of “Requisite Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share”; provided, with the consent of Administrative Agent and the Lenders Steering Committee, additional extensions of credit pursuant hereto may be included in the determination of “Requisite Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share” on substantially the same basis as the Commitments and the Loans are included on the Closing Date;

(viii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or all or substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guaranty except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents or subordinate any Liens securing the Obligations; or

(ix) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Credit Document except due to any transaction or event permitted hereunder;

provided, however, that the Fee Letter may be amended or modified, or the rights or privileges thereunder waived, in a writing executed only by the parties thereto.

(c) Other Consents. No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of the Credit Documents, or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall:

109

(i) increase any Commitment of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such Lender; provided, no amendment, modification or waiver of any condition precedent, covenant, Default or Event of Default shall constitute an increase in any Commitment of any Lender;

(ii) amend, modify, terminate or waive any condition precedent in Section 3.2(a) with regard to the making of any Loan without the consent of the Requisite Lenders having Exposure (it being understood that no waiver of any Default or Event of Default by the Requisite Lenders, nor any waiver or amendment of any covenant, representation or other provision not in Section 3.2(a) shall constitute an amendment, modification or waiver);

(iii) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of Section 9 or any other provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, including Section 2.11(a) and (b) and Section 2.12(a), as the same applies to any Agent or Section 5.14(b) as it relates to proceeds of New Term Loans being held in Controlled Accounts (or with respect to the Company, Deposit Accounts) at Barclays Bank PLC, or any other provision hereof as the same applies to the rights or obligations of any Agent, in each case without the consent of such Agent;

(iv) amend, modify, terminate or waive any provision of Sections 2.20(a), 2.20(b), 3.3 or 5.14(b), in each case, in any manner adverse to Barclays Bank PLC without the consent of Barclays Bank PLC; or

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and the other Credit Documents may be amended to provide for additional loans to be made hereunder having terms identical (or more favorable to the Lenders making such additional loans, but only if the terms of the Initial Term Loans and New Term Loans will be amended to have such more favorable terms) to the Initial Term Loans with the consent of the Lenders Steering Committee and without the consent of any other Lenders or Agent; provided, that any such amendments are subject to the consent of any Agent if such amendments would otherwise require the consent of such Agent under Section 10.5(c)(iii) above.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender or an Insolvent Lender, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments and waivers hereunder and the Commitment and the outstanding Loans of such Lender hereunder will not be taken into account in determining whether the Requisite Lenders or all of the affected Lenders, as required, have approved any such amendment or waiver (and the definition of “Requisite Lenders” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period); provided, that any such amendment or waiver that would increase or extend the Commitment of such Lender, extend the

110

date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Lender hereunder, reduce the principal amount of any obligation owing to such Lender, reduce the amount of or the rate or amount of interest on any amount owing to such Lender, or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent of such Lender.

(d) Execution of Amendments, etc. Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 10.5 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by a Credit Party, on such Credit Party.

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations.

(a) Generally. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and permitted assigns of Lenders. No Credit Party’s rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be assigned or delegated by any Credit Party without the prior written consent of all Lenders except as permitted in Section 10.5(b)(ix) (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Credit Party without such consent shall be null and void). 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 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, Affiliates of each of the Agents and Lenders and Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Company, the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the corresponding Commitments and Loans listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Commitment or Loan shall be effective, in each case, unless and until recorded in the Register following receipt of a fully executed Assignment Agreement effecting the assignment or transfer thereof, together with the required forms and certificates regarding Tax matters and any fees payable in connection with such assignment, in each case, as provided in Section 10.6(d). Each assignment shall be recorded in the Register promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of the fully executed Assignment Agreement and all other necessary documents and approvals, prompt notice thereof shall be provided to Company and a copy of such Assignment Agreement shall be maintained, as applicable. The date of such recordation of a transfer shall be referred to herein as the “Assignment Effective Date.” Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Commitments or Loans. Solely for the purposes of maintaining the Register and for tax purposes only Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be acting on behalf of the Credit Parties.

111

(c) Right to Assign. Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell, assign or transfer all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including all or a portion of its Commitment or Loans owing to it or other Obligations (provided, that pro rata assignments shall not be required and each assignment shall be of a uniform, and not varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any applicable Loan and any related Commitments):

(i) to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (a) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” upon the giving of notice to Company and the Administrative Agent; and

(ii) to any Person meeting the criteria of clause (b) or (c) of the definition of the term of “Eligible Assignee” upon giving of notice to Administrative Agent; provided, that further each such assignment pursuant to this Section 10.6(c)(ii) shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount as may be agreed to by Company and the Administrative Agent or as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Term Loan or New Term Loans of the assigning Lender) with respect to the assignment of Term Loans; provided, that the Related Funds of any individual Lender may aggregate their Loans for purposes of determining compliance with such minimum assignment amounts.

(d) Mechanics. Assignments and assumptions of Loans and Commitments by Lenders shall be effected by manual execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of an Assignment Agreement. Assignments made pursuant to the foregoing provision shall be effective as of the Assignment Effective Date. In connection with all assignments there shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent such forms, certificates or other evidence, if any, with respect to United States federal income Tax withholding matters as the assignee under such Assignment Agreement may be required to deliver pursuant to Section 2.16(e), together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (except that no registration and processing fee shall be payable (y) in connection with an assignment by or to Barclays Bank or any Affiliate thereof or (z) in the case of an Assignee which is already a Lender or is an Affiliate or Related Fund of a Lender or a Person under common management with a Lender).

(e) Representations and Warranties of Assignee. Each Lender, upon execution and delivery hereof or upon succeeding to an interest in the Commitments and Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the Closing Date or as of the Assignment Effective Date that (i) it is an Eligible Assignee; (ii) it has experience and expertise in the making of or investing in commitments or loans such as the applicable Commitments or Loans, as the case may be and is capable of evaluating the creditworthiness of Company; and (iii) it shall make or invest in, as the case may be, its Commitments or Loans for its own account in the ordinary course and without a view to distribution of such Commitments or Loans within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or other federal securities laws (it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.6, the disposition of such Commitments or Loans or any interests therein shall at all times remain within its exclusive control).

112

(f) Effect of Assignment. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 10.6, as of the “Assignment Effective Date” (i) the assignee thereunder shall have the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder to the extent of its interest in the Loans and Commitments as reflected in the Register and shall thereafter be a party hereto and a “Lender” for all purposes hereof; (ii) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to the assignee, relinquish its rights (other than any rights which survive the termination hereof, including under Section 10.9) and be released from its obligations hereunder (and, in the case of an assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto on the Assignment Effective Date; provided, that anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, such assigning Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefit of all indemnities hereunder as specified herein with respect to matters arising out of the prior involvement of such assigning Lender as a Lender hereunder); (iii) the Commitments shall be modified to reflect any Commitment of such assignee; and (iv) if any such assignment occurs after the issuance of any Note hereunder, the assigning Lender shall, upon the effectiveness of such assignment or as promptly thereafter as practicable, surrender its applicable Notes to the Administrative Agent for cancellation, and thereupon Company shall issue and deliver new Notes, if so requested by the assignee and/or assigning Lender, to such assignee and/or to such assigning Lender, with appropriate insertions, to reflect outstanding Loans of the assignee and/or the assigning Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with the requirements of this Section 10.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.6(g). Any assignment by a Lender pursuant to this Section 10.6 shall not in any way constitute or be deemed to constitute a novation, discharge, rescission, extinguishment or substitution of the Indebtedness hereunder, and any Indebtedness so assigned shall continue to be the same obligation and not a new obligation.

(g) Participations.

(i) Each Lender shall have the right at any time to sell one or more participations to any Person (other than Company, any of its subsidiaries or any of its Affiliates) in all or any part of its Commitments, Loans or in any other Obligation.

(ii) The holder of any such participation, other than an Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation (a “Participant”), shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except with respect to any amendment, modification or waiver that would (A) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such Participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or fees thereon or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the Participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any Participant if the Participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (B) consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (C) amend the definition of “Requisite Lenders” or the definition of “Pro

113

Rata Share”, except as such amendments are permitted by the proviso in Section 10.5(b)(vii), or (D) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors or the Collateral under the Collateral Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the Loans hereunder in which such Participant is participating.

(iii) Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14(c), 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 10.6; provided, that (x) a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with Company’s prior written consent and (y) a Participant that would be a Non-U.S. Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless Company is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Company, to comply with Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender; provided, further, that, except as specifically set forth in clauses (x) and (y) of this sentence, nothing herein shall require any notice to Company or any other Person in connection with the sale of any participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.4 as though it were a Lender; provided, that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17 as though it were a Lender.

(iv) Each Lender that sells a participation shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts of each Participant’s interest in the Commitments, Loans and other Obligations held by it (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such Commitments, Loans and other Obligations as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. Any such Participant Register shall be available for inspection by any Agent at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(h) Certain Other Assignments and Participations. In addition to any other assignment or participation permitted pursuant to this Section 10.6 any Lender may assign, pledge and/or grant a security interest in (without the consent of Company, any Borrower or the Administrative Agent) all or any portion of its Loans, the other Obligations owed by or to such Lender, and its Notes, if any, to secure obligations of such Lender including to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that no Lender, as between Borrowers and such Lender, shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge; provided, further, that in no event shall the applicable Federal Reserve Bank, pledgee or trustee, be considered to be a “Lender” or be entitled to require the assigning Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder.

10.7 Special Purpose Funding Vehicles. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (“Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to Administrative Agent and Borrowers, the option to provide to Borrowers all or any part of any

114

Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (x) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loans and (y) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this clause, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, Borrowers or Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by Borrowers and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This Section 10.7 may not be amended without the written consent of the SPC. Borrowers acknowledge and agree, subject to the next sentence, that, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, each SPC, for purposes of Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 2.16, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4, shall be considered a Lender. Borrowers shall not be required to pay any amount under Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 2.16, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 that is greater than the amount which it would have been required to pay had no grant been made by a Granting Lender to a SPC.

10.8 Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

10.9 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit Extension. Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of each Credit Party set forth in Sections 2.14(c), 2.15, 2.16, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 2.13, 9.3(b) and 9.6 shall survive the payment of the Loans, and the termination hereof.

10.10 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Agent or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other 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 each Agent and each Lender hereby are

115

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. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

10.11 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall 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. To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

10.12 Severability. In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or any Note or other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

10.13 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Credit Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out hereof and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

10.14 Headings. Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

10.15 APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

116

10.16 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION.

10.17 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/BORROWER RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED.

IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

10.18 Confidentiality. Each Agent and Lender shall hold all non-public information regarding Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries and their businesses clearly identified as such by Company and obtained by such Agent or Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Agent or Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by Company that, in any event, an Agent or Lender may make (i) disclosures of such information to Affiliates of such Person and to their directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (and to other persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.18), (ii) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee, Participant or sub-participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation (x) by such Agent of any agency position, (y) by such Lender of any Loans or any participations therein or (z) by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) in (provided, such counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.18), (iii) disclosure to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Credit Parties received by it from any of the Agents or any Lender, (iv) disclosures to any Lender’s financing sources, provided that prior to any disclosure, such financing source is informed of the confidential nature of the information provided such parties are advised of and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.18, (v) disclosure of information which (A) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.18 or (B) becomes available to Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than Company, and (vi) disclosures required or requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or by the NAIC or pursuant to legal or judicial process; provided, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Agent or Lender shall make reasonable efforts to notify Company of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Agent or Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or after the Closing Date, Administrative Agent may, at its own expense, issue news releases and publish “tombstone” advertisements and other announcements relating to this transaction in newspapers, trade journals and other appropriate

118

media. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 10.18, the parties (and each employee, representative, or other agent of the parties) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the Tax treatment and any facts that may be relevant to the Tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Credit Documents; provided, however, that no party (and no employee, representative, or other agent thereof) shall disclose any other information that is not relevant to an understanding of the Tax treatment and Tax structure of the transaction (including the identity of any party and any information that could lead another to determine the identity of any party), or any other information to the extent that such disclosure could reasonably result in a violation of any applicable securities law.

10.19 Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged or agreed to be paid with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Company shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Company to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Company. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest, throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

10.20 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of signature pages to this Agreement by facsimile or email (in PDF or similar format) shall be effective as manual delivery of a counterpart hereof.

10.21 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by Borrowers and Administrative Agent of written notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof.

119

10.22 Patriot Act. Each Lender and Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of Borrowers and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Borrowers in accordance with the Patriot Act.

10.23 Disclosure. Each Credit Party and each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that Administrative Agent and/or its Affiliates and their respective Related Funds from time to time may hold investments in, and make other loans to, or have other relationships with any of the Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates, including the ownership, purchase and sale of equity interests in Borrowers, and each Credit Party and each Lender hereby expressly consents to such relationships.

10.24 Appointment for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with Administrative Agent’s instructions.

10.25 Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures 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.

10.26 No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender, the Arranger and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of Company, its stockholders and/or its Affiliates. Company agrees that nothing in the Credit Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender or any Agent, on the one hand, and Company, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders and the Agents, on the one hand, and Company, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender and no Agent has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of Company, its stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise Company, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to Company except the obligations expressly set forth in the Credit Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as

120

principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of Company, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Company acknowledges and agrees that Company has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Company agrees that it will not claim that any Lender or any Agent has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to Company, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

10.27 Lender Agreement to Tender. Each member of the Lenders Steering Committee listed in Schedule 9.11 (but not an assignee thereof) and each New Term Loan Lender (but not any assignee thereof other than if the Administrative Agent is the New Term Loan Lender, any initial assignees from the Administrative Agent) that, in each case, had Investment Discretion with respect to any August 2009 Notes as of the Closing Date (each such Person other than Barclays Bank PLC, a “Tendering Party”) agrees that it will tender pursuant to the Tender Offer by no later than close of business on July 31, 2009 any and all August 2009 Notes with respect to which it had Investment Discretion as of the Closing Date and retains such Investment Discretion on July 31, 2009, and agrees that it will not withdraw any such tendered August 2009 Notes unless the tender price is reduced. The foregoing obligation to tender the August 2009 Notes shall continue to apply notwithstanding any sale or assignment of its Term Loans (if any) by such Tendering Party.

As used herein, a Tendering Party has “Investment Discretion” with respect to August 2009 Notes if (A) such Tendering Party is itself the legal owner of such August 2009 Notes or (B) such Tendering Party is, pursuant to a management or advisory agreement, an asset manager or investment advisor and agent (each an “Asset Manager”) for one or more funds, accounts or other entities that are the legal owners of such August 2009 Notes, and, in the case of a Tendering Party that has legal but not beneficial title to such August 2009 Notes or an Asset Manager, such Asset Manager or other Tendering Party has full power and authority to tender such August 2009 Notes into the Tender Offer. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge that a managed entity may hold assets, including August 2009 Notes, over which the relevant Tendering Party does not have Investment Discretion, and an Asset Manager may, from time to time (including prior to close of business on July 31, 2009), lose Investment Discretion over the August 2009 Notes, in which cases such Tendering Party shall have no obligation to tender any such August 2009 Notes as to which it has lost Investment Discretion (including, without limitation, as a result of a downgrade of the August 2009 Notes or a specific instruction from the beneficial owner thereof), in which cases such Tendering Party shall have no obligation to tender any such August 2009 Notes as to which it has lost Investment Discretion; provided that, other than pursuant to the Tender Offer, a Tendering Party cannot lose Investment Discretion with respect to the August 2009 Notes subject to the agreement set forth in the preceding paragraph through an exercise of Investment Discretion.

10.28 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents 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 among the parties.

10.29 Borrower Representative.

121

(a) Each Borrower hereby designates, appoints, authorizes and empowers Borrower Representative as its agent to act as specified in this Agreement and each of the other Credit Documents and Borrower Representative hereby acknowledges such designation, authorization and empowerment, and accepts such appointment. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Borrower Representative to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and any other instruments, documents and agreements referred to herein or therein, and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of Borrower Representative by the respective terms and provisions hereof and thereof, and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, including, without limitation, to take the following actions for and on such Borrower’s behalf:

(i) to submit and receive on behalf of each Borrower, Notices and all other notices to any Agent and Lenders (as applicable) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; and

(ii) to submit on behalf of each Borrower, Compliance Certificates and all other certificates, notices and other communications given or required to be given hereunder.

(b) Borrower Representative hereby further is authorized and directed by each Borrower (as applicable) to take all such actions on behalf of such Borrower necessary to exercise the specific power granted in clauses (i) through (iii) above and to perform such other duties hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, and deliver such agreements, documents, certificates and instruments as delegated to or required of Borrower Representative by the terms hereof or thereof.

(c) The administration by Administrative Agent and Lenders of the credit facility provided hereunder as a facility with a borrower representative and co-borrowers with respect to the Loans in the manner set forth herein is solely as an accommodation to the Credit Parties and at their request and neither any Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to any Credit Party as a result thereof.

10.30 Amendment and Restatement. The Indebtedness and Obligations evidenced by this Agreement and all instruments, agreements, and documents executed in connection herewith constitute an amendment, renewal, and restatement of all Indebtedness and obligations of the Company evidenced by the Original Credit Agreement. All promissory notes, instruments and any other document, agreement, waiver or other instrument executed in connection therewith (collectively the “Existing Credit Documents”) shall remain in full force and effect except to extent modified in accordance with their respective terms. It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that this Agreement is in no way intended to constitute a novation of the obligations and liabilities existing under the Original Credit Agreement or evidence payment in full of all or any of such obligations and liabilities, nor does the amendment and restatement hereunder of the Original Credit Agreement, or the concurrent amendment and restatement of any other Credit Document, constitute a waiver of any conditions or requirements set forth herein or therein, whether or not performed, fulfilled or required to be performed or fulfilled prior to the date hereof. All references to the Original

122

Credit Agreement in the Existing Credit Documents shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement. If any inconsistency exists between this Agreement and the Original Credit Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other document or instrument executed contemporaneously herewith shall be deemed to satisfy or discharge the Indebtedness evidenced by the Original Credit Agreement or the Existing Credit Documents (this being an amendment and restatement only).
