(a) Borrowing Base Certificate; Approval. The Borrowing Base shall be calculated at the times and in the manner set forth in this Section 3.5(a):
(i) Within forty-five (45) days after the end of each calendar quarter, and at such other times as the Aggregate Majority Lenders may reasonably require (provided that such calculation is to be made as of the last day of a calendar month), Borrower shall provide Administrative Agent with a Borrowing Base Certificate (and Administrative Agent will promptly forward to each Lender) showing Borrower’s calculations of the components of the Borrowing Base and such data supporting such calculations as the Aggregate Majority Lenders may require. The Aggregate Majority Lenders shall have a period of thirty (30) days following receipt of a Borrowing Base Certificate to notify Administrative Agent (who shall notify Borrower) of the Aggregate Majority Lenders’ approval or disapproval thereof. Failure of the Aggregate
4
Majority Lenders to so notify Administrative Agent and Administrative Agent to so notify Borrower within such thirty (30) day period shall be deemed approval and such Borrowing Base as set forth in such Borrowing Base Certificate shall be effective as of the date approved (or deemed approved) by the Aggregate Majority Lenders. The amount so approved (or deemed approved) shall constitute the Borrowing Base until such time as the Borrowing Base is redetermined in accordance with this Section 3.5(a).
(ii) In the event that Administrative Agent (as requested by the Aggregate Majority Lenders) timely notifies Borrower of disapproval of a Borrowing Base Certificate, then Administrative Agent shall, at the same time, notify Borrower in writing of the amount of the Borrowing Base as reasonably determined by the Aggregate Majority Lenders and the basis of such determination, and the effective date thereof (which shall be the date of the giving of such notice by Administrative Agent), and such amount shall thereupon and thereafter constitute the Borrowing Base which shall remain in effect until such time as the Borrowing Base is redetermined in accordance with this Section 3.5(a).

(iii) Each determination of the Borrowing Base in accordance with this Section 3.5(a) shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties hereto, and provided that the Aggregate Majority Lenders are not bound to rely on information and figures provided by Borrower if the Aggregate Majority Lenders determine in good faith that it would be inappropriate to do so. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to restrict Borrower from submitting additional Borrowing Base Certificates to Administrative Agent for the Aggregate Majority Lenders’ approval at times other than those required hereunder.
(g) Section 3.10(b) is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
(b) At any time after the Closing Date and prior to the date that is ninety (90) days prior to the Maturity Date, Administrative Agent shall, without the consent of Lenders (except as specified in this Section 3.10), from time to time at the request of Borrower, increase the Total Aggregate Commitment by (i) admitting additional Lenders hereunder (each a “Subsequent Lender”), or (ii) increasing the Commitment of any Lender (each an “Increasing Lender”), subject to the following conditions:

(F) no admission of any Subsequent Lender shall increase the Commitment of any existing Lender without the written consent of such Lender;
(G) no Default or Event of Default exists;
(H) no Lender shall be an Increasing Lender without the written consent of such Lender; and
(I) Administrative Agent and the applicable Subsequent Lender or Increasing Lender, as the case may be, are satisfied that after giving effect to the increase in the Total Aggregate Commitment, the Obligations constitute “senior debt” under all Subordinated Debt of Borrower.
After the admission of any Subsequent Lender or increase in the Commitment of any Increasing Lender, Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to each Lender and to Borrower a new Schedule 1.1(a) to this Agreement (and each Lender acknowledges that its percentage obligation under such Schedule will change in accordance with its Pro Rata Share of the increased Total Aggregate Commitment). In the event that there are any Loans outstanding after giving effect to an increase in the Total Aggregate Commitment pursuant to this Section 3.10, upon notice from Administrative Agent to each Lender, the amount of such Loans owing to each Lender shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the new Pro Rata Shares of each Lender, and Borrower shall pay any amounts required pursuant to Section 4.7.

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) the credit facility provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, on the other hand, and Borrower is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, the Administrative Agent and each Arranger is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for Borrower or any of its Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other Person; (iii) neither Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of Borrower with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or any Arranger has advised or is currently advising Borrower or any of its Affiliates on other matters) and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) the Administrative Agent, each Arranger, and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Arranger has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or
12
of any other Loan Document) and Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. Borrower hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent and each Arranger with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.
(w) The Credit Agreement is hereby amended to add the following new Section 11.23:

13

5. Conditions. This Amendment shall not be effective unless and until:

(c) Administrative Agent shall have received a fully executed counterpart of the Term A Credit Agreement; and
(d) both before and after giving effect to this Amendment, no Default or Event of Default exists.

8. Parties. This Amendment binds and inures to each party hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
