For each Four-Quarter Period that includes the date of a Permitted Acquisition, Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Interest Expense shall include the results of operations of the Person or assets so acquired, which amounts shall be determined on a historical pro forma basis and which may include such adjustments as are permitted under Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission; provided, however, Consolidated Interest Expense shall be adjusted on a historical pro forma basis to (i) eliminate interest expense accrued during such period on any Indebtedness repaid in connection with such Permitted Acquisition and (ii) include interest expense on any Indebtedness (including Indebtedness hereunder) incurred, acquired or assumed in connection with such Permitted Acquisition (“Incremental Debt”) calculated (x) as if all such Incremental Debt had been incurred as of the first day of such Four-Quarter Period and (y) at the following interest rates: (I) for all periods subsequent to the date of the Permitted Acquisition and for Incremental Debt assumed or acquired in the Permitted Acquisition and in effect prior to the date of Permitted Acquisition, at the actual rates of interest applicable thereto, and (II) for all periods prior to the actual incurrence of such Incremental Debt, equal to the rate of interest actually applicable to such Incremental Debt hereunder or under other financing documents applicable thereto as at the end of each affected Four-Quarter Period.

1.4 Accounting for Derivatives. In making any computation under Section 8.1, all adjustments to such computation or amount resulting from the application of FASB 133 shall be disregarded.

1.5 Accounting and Financial Determinations. Except as provided in Section 1.3, where the character or amount of any asset or liability or item of income or expense is required to be determined, or any accounting computation is required to be made, for the purpose of this Agreement, such determination or calculation shall, to the extent applicable, be made in accordance with GAAP applied on a Consistent Basis except insofar as:

(a) the Borrower shall have elected (with the concurrence of its independent public accountant and upon prior written notification to the Lenders) to adopt more recently promulgated GAAP (which election shall continue to be effective for subsequent years); and

(b) the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders shall have consented to such election (it being understood that such consent may be conditioned upon the implementation of such changes to Article VIII as are appropriate to reflect such adoption of more recently promulgated GAAP and it being further understood that such consent shall be deemed to have been given upon the implementation of such changes).

Upon a change in GAAP which becomes effective after the Closing Date which would have a material effect on the Borrower’s consolidated financial statements and the assets and liabilities reflected therein or otherwise affect the calculation or the application of the covenants contained in Article VIII hereof, such change shall not be given effect for purposes hereof until sixty (60) days from the otherwise effective date of such change. Prior to such effectiveness the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall in good faith negotiate to amend the pertinent provisions of this Agreement to account for such change to the extent appropriate to effect the substance thereof as of the Closing Date. If such an amendment is not entered into with respect to any such change, such change shall not be given effect for purposes hereof. The Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, upon request, comfort from its accountants that, without giving effect to such change in GAAP, upon their review of the calculations set forth in the Compliance Certificate prepared on a Consistent Basis, nothing has come to their attention that would lead them to believe the Borrower was not in compliance with the financial covenants contained in this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to any election under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 159 (or any other Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of the Borrower or any Subsidiary at “fair value”, as defined therein.

ARTICLE II

The Loans

2.1 Term Loans. (a) Each Term Lender that is not an Extended Term Lender shall maintain hereunder a portion of its Term Loan outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement as a “Non-Extended Term Loan” in the principal amount specified for such Lender on Exhibit A. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, (i) each Extended Term Lender agrees to convert a portion of its Term Loan outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement to an “Extended Term Loan” in the principal amount specified for such Lender on Exhibit A and (ii) each Term Lender that has an Extended Incremental Term Commitment severally agrees to make a term loan (which shall be an “Extended Term Loan”) to the Borrower on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date in an amount not to exceed the amount of the Extended Incremental Term Commitment of such Lender.

(b) The Term Loans may from time to time be Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.2 and 2.12.

2.2 Procedure for Term Loan Borrowing. With respect to borrowings under the Extended Incremental Term Commitments, which shall initially be Base Rate Loans, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice in the form of a borrowing notice (which notice shall be substantially in the form of a Borrowing Notice for Revolving Credit Loans, mutatis mutandis, which shall have been received by the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the proposed borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day) requesting that the relevant Term Lenders make Extended Term Loans on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date and specifying the amount to be borrowed. Upon receipt of such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Term Lender thereof. Not later than 1:30 P.M., New York City time, on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, each relevant Term Lender shall, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, make available to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office an amount in immediately available funds equal to the incremental Extended Term Loan to be made by such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall credit the account of the Borrower on the books of such office of the Administrative Agent with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the relevant Term Lenders in immediately available funds. The Borrower shall take such actions as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent such that, as soon as practicable after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, each Extended Term Lender holds a ratable share of each Extended Term Loan having a particular Interest Period.

2.3 Repayment of Term Loans. The Non-Extended Term Loan of each Non-Extended Term Lender shall mature and be payable in full on the Non-Extended Term Loan Stated Maturity Date. The Extended Term Loan of each Extended Term Lender shall mature and be payable in full on the Extended Term Loan Stated Maturity Date.

2.4 Revolving Credit Commitments.

(a) Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees to make Advances to the Borrower, from time to time until the Revolving Credit Termination Date, on a pro rata basis as to the total borrowing requested by the Borrower under the Revolving Credit Facility on any day determined by its Revolving Percentage up to but not exceeding the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender, provided, however, that the Revolving Credit Lenders will not be required and shall have no obligation to make any Advance (i) so long as not all of the conditions under Section 5.2 hereof have been fulfilled, (ii) so long as a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (iii) if the Administrative Agent has accelerated the maturity of the Revolving Credit Loans as a result of an Event of Default in accordance with Section 9.1 hereof; provided further, however, that immediately after giving effect to each such Advance, the principal amount of Outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Within such limits, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow hereunder, on any Business Day, until, but (as to borrowings and reborrowings) not including, the applicable Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided, however, that (x) no Eurodollar Loan that is a Revolving Credit Loan shall be made which has an Interest Period that extends beyond the applicable Revolving Credit Stated Maturity Date and (y) each Revolving Credit Loan that is a Eurodollar Loan may, subject to the provisions of Section 2.12, be repaid only on the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto unless the Borrower has paid any amounts due pursuant to Section 4.5 hereof. All borrowings of Revolving

Credit Loans shall be made ratably under the Extended Revolving Credit Facility and the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Facility according to the respective Revolving Percentages of the Revolving Credit Lenders.

(b) Amounts. The aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Extended Outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations shall not exceed at any time an amount equal to the Extended Total Revolving Credit Commitment. The aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Non-Extended Outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations shall not exceed at any time an amount equal to the Non-Extended Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Each Loan under the Revolving Credit Facility, other than a Swing Line Loan or a Base Rate Refunding Loan, and each Conversion thereof under Section 2.12, shall be in a principal amount of (i) at least $10,000,000, and, if greater than $10,000,000, an integral multiple of $1,000,000, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or (ii) at least $5,000,000 and, if greater than $5,000,000, an integral multiple of $1,000,000, in the case of Base Rate Loans.

(c) Advances and Rate Selection. (i) An Authorized Representative shall give the Administrative Agent (1) at least three (3) Business Days’ irrevocable telephonic notice of each Revolving Credit Loan that is a Eurodollar Loan (whether representing an additional borrowing hereunder or the Conversion of borrowing hereunder from Base Rate Loans or other Eurodollar Loans to Eurodollar Loans) prior to 12:00 Noon; and (2) irrevocable telephonic notice of each Revolving Credit Loan that is a Base Rate Loan (other than Base Rate Refunding Loans to the extent the same are effective without notice pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(iv)) representing an additional borrowing hereunder prior to 12:00 noon on the day of such proposed Base Rate Loan. Each such borrowing notice, which shall be effective upon receipt by the Administrative Agent, shall specify the amount of the borrowing, the Type of Loan, the date of borrowing and, if a Eurodollar Loan, the Interest Period to be used in the computation of interest. The Authorized Representative shall provide the Administrative Agent written confirmation of each such telephonic notice on the same day by telefacsimile transmission in the form of a Borrowing Notice, for additional Advances, or in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F as to selection or Conversion of interest rates as to outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, in each case with appropriate insertions, but failure to provide such confirmation shall not affect the validity of such telephonic notice. The duration of the initial Interest Period for each Revolving Credit Loan that is a Eurodollar Loan shall be as specified in the initial Borrowing Notice. The Borrower shall have the option to elect the duration of subsequent Interest Periods and to Convert the Revolving Credit Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) in accordance with Section 2.12 hereof. If the Administrative Agent does not receive a notice of election of duration of an Interest Period or to Convert by the time prescribed hereby and by Section 2.12 hereof, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected as to any Revolving Credit Loan, to Convert such Loan to (or Continue such Loan as) a Base Rate Loan bearing interest at the Base Rate until the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section and Section 2.12.

(ii) Notice of receipt of each Borrowing Notice shall be provided by the Administrative Agent to each Revolving Credit Lender by telefacsimile or telephonic notice with reasonable promptness on the same day as Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Borrowing Notice.

(iii) Not later than 3:00 P.M. on the date specified for each Advance under the Revolving Credit Facility, each Revolving Credit Lender shall, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, make the amount of the Loan or Loans to be made by it on such day available to the Administrative Agent, by depositing or transferring the proceeds thereof in immediately available funds at the Principal Office. The amount so received by the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, be made available to the Borrower by delivery of the proceeds thereof as shall be directed in the applicable Borrowing Notice by the Authorized Representative.

(iv) If a drawing is made under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank for such drawing by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such drawing not later than 2:00 P.M. on (A) the Business Day (which may be the date such drawing is made) that the Borrower receives notice of such drawing, if the Borrower shall have received such notice prior to 10:00 a.m., or (B) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received by the Borrower on a day other than a Business Day or after 10:00 a.m. on a Business Day. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a drawing is made under any Letter of Credit, such drawing is honored by the Issuing Bank thereunder, and the Borrower shall not immediately fully reimburse such Issuing Bank in respect of such drawing, (y) provided that the conditions to making a Revolving Credit Loan as herein provided shall then be satisfied, the Reimbursement Obligation arising from such drawing shall be paid to such Issuing Bank by the Administrative Agent without the requirement of notice to or from the Borrower from immediately available funds which shall be advanced as a Base Rate Refunding Loan by each Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility in an amount determined with reference to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such Reimbursement Obligation, and (z) if the conditions to making a Revolving Credit Loan as herein provided shall not then be satisfied, each of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall fund by payment to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Issuing Bank) in immediately available funds the purchase from such Issuing Bank of their respective Participations in the related Reimbursement Obligation based on their respective Revolving Percentages. If a drawing is presented under any Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms thereof and the Borrower shall not immediately reimburse the Issuing Bank thereunder in respect thereof as provided above, then notice of such drawing shall be provided promptly by such Issuing Bank to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall provide notice to each Revolving Credit Lender by telephone or telefacsimile transmission. If notice to the Revolving Credit Lenders of a drawing under any Letter of Credit is given by the Administrative Agent at or before 2:00 P.M. on any Business Day, each Revolving Credit Lender shall, pursuant to the conditions specified in this Section 2.4(c)(iv), either make a Base Rate Refunding Loan or fund the purchase of its Participation in the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such drawing or payment and shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at the Principal Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds before 2:30 P.M. on the same Business Day. If notice to the Revolving Credit Lenders of a drawing under a Letter of Credit is given by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 P.M. on any Business Day, each Revolving Credit Lender shall, pursuant to the conditions specified in this Section 2.4(c)(iv), either make a Base Rate Refunding Loan or fund the purchase of its Participation in the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such drawing and shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at the Principal Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds before 2:00 P.M. on the next following Business Day. Any such Base Rate Refunding Loans shall be advanced as, and shall continue as, a Base Rate Loan unless and until the Borrower Converts such Base Rate Loan in accordance with the terms of Section 2.12.

2.5 Competitive Bid Loans.

(a) In addition to Revolving Credit Loans, at any time after the termination of the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and provided no Default or Event of Default exists hereunder, the Borrower may, as set forth in this Section 2.5, request the Revolving Credit Lenders to make offers to make Competitive Bid Loans to the Borrower in Dollars. The Revolving Credit Lenders may, but shall have no obligation to, make such offers and the Borrower may, but shall have no obligation to, accept any such offers in the manner set forth in this Section 2.5. There may be no more than ten (10) Interest Periods, and no more than one (1) one-week Interest Periods, for all Revolving Credit Loans and Competitive Bid Loans outstanding at the same time (for which purpose Interest Periods for each Eurodollar Revolving Credit Loan and each Competitive Bid Loan shall be deemed to be different Interest Periods even if they are coterminous). The aggregate principal amount of all Outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment at any time. The aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Competitive Bid Loans shall not exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment at any time.

(b) When the Borrower wishes to request offers to make Competitive Bid Loans, it shall give the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders notice (a “Competitive Bid Quote Request”) to be received no later than 12:00 Noon on (A) the fourth Business Day prior to the date of borrowing proposed therein, in the case of a Competitive Bid Quote Request for Competitive Bid Loans at the Eurodollar Competitive Rate or (B) the Business Day prior to the date of borrowing proposed therein, in the case of a Competitive Bid Quote Request for Competitive Bid Loans at the Absolute Rate (or, in any such case, such other time and date as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree). The Borrower may request offers to make Competitive Bid Loans for up to three (3) different Interest Periods in a single notice; provided that the request for each separate Interest Period shall be deemed to be a separate Competitive Bid Quote Request for a separate borrowing (a “Competitive Bid Borrowing”) and there shall not be outstanding at any one time more than four (4) Competitive Bid Borrowings. Each such Competitive Bid Quote Request shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit G attached hereto and shall specify as to each Competitive Bid Borrowing:

(i) the proposed date of such borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(ii) the aggregate amount of such Competitive Bid Borrowing, which shall be at least $10,000,000 (or in increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof) but shall not cause the limits specified in Section 2.5(a) hereof to be violated;

(iii) the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto;

(iv) whether the Competitive Bid Quote Request for a particular Interest Period is seeking quotes for Competitive Bid Loans at the Absolute Rate or the Eurodollar Competitive Rate;

(v) whether the Borrower shall have the right to prepay a requested Competitive Bid Loan; and

(vi) the date on which the Competitive Bid Quotes are to be submitted if it is before the proposed date of borrowing (the date on which such Competitive Bid Quotes are to be submitted is called the “Quotation Date”).

Except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.5(b), no more than two (2) Competitive Bid Quote Requests shall be given within five (5) Business Days (or such other number of days as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree) of any other Competitive Bid Quote Request.

(c) (i) Each Revolving Credit Lender may submit one or more Competitive Bid Quotes, each containing an offer to make a Competitive Bid Loan in response to any Competitive Bid Quote Request; provided that, if the Borrower’s request under Section 2.5(b) hereof specified more than one Interest Period, such Lender may make a single submission containing one or more Competitive Bid Quotes for each such Interest Period. Each Competitive Bid Quote must be submitted to the Borrower not later than 9:30 A.M. on (A) the third Business Day prior to the proposed date of borrowing, in the case of a Competitive Bid Quote Request for Competitive Bid Loans at the Eurodollar Competitive Rate or (B) the Quotation Date, in the case of a Competitive Bid Quote Request for Competitive Bid Loans at the Absolute Rate (or, in any such case, such other time and date as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree) provided that if JPMorgan Chase Bank is receiving quotes as provided in Section 2.5(g), any Competitive Bid Quote may be submitted by JPMorgan Chase Bank (or its applicable Lending

Office) only if JPMorgan Chase Bank (or such applicable Lending Office) notifies the Borrower of the terms of the offer contained therein not later than 9:15 A.M. on the Quotation Date. Any Competitive Bid Quote so made shall be irrevocable except with the consent of the Administrative Agent given on the instructions of the Borrower.

(ii) Each Competitive Bid Quote shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit H attached hereto and shall specify:

(A) the proposed date of borrowing and the Interest Period therefor;

(B) the principal amount of the Competitive Bid Loan for which each such offer is being made, which principal amount shall be at least $5,000,000 (or in increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof); provided that the aggregate principal amount of all Competitive Bid Loans for which a Lender submits Competitive Bid Quotes may not exceed the principal amount of the Competitive Bid Borrowing for a particular Interest Period for which offers were requested;

(C) in the case of a Competitive Bid Quote for Competitive Bid Loans at an Absolute Rate, the rate of interest per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest 1/10,000th of 1%) offered for each such Competitive Bid Loan (the “Absolute Rate”);

(D) in the case of a Competitive Bid Quote for Competitive Bid Loans at the Eurodollar Competitive Rate, the positive or negative margin to be added to or deducted from the Interbank Offered Rate; and

(E) the identity of the quoting Lender.

Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, no Competitive Bid Quote shall contain qualifying, conditional or similar language or propose terms other than or in addition to those set forth in the applicable Competitive Bid Quote Request and, in particular, no Competitive Bid Quote may be conditioned upon acceptance by the Borrower of all (or some specified minimum) of the principal amount of the Competitive Bid Loan for which such Competitive Bid Quote is being made. Any subsequent Competitive Bid Quote submitted by a Revolving Credit Lender that amends, modifies or is otherwise inconsistent with a previous Competitive Bid Quote submitted by such Lender with respect to the same Competitive Bid Quote Request shall be disregarded by the Borrower unless such subsequent Competitive Bid Quote is submitted solely to correct a manifest error in such former Competitive Bid Quote.

(d) The Borrower shall as promptly as practicable after the Competitive Bid Quote is submitted (but in any event not later than 12:00 Noon on (A) in the case of a Competitive Bid Loan at an Absolute Rate, the Quotation Date (or such other time and date as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree) or (B) in the case of a Competitive Bid Loan at a Eurodollar Competitive Rate, the third Business Day prior to the proposed date of borrowing) notify the Administrative Agent and Revolving Credit Lenders of (x) the aggregate principal amount of the Competitive Bid Borrowing for which Competitive Bid Quotes have been received as well as the ranges of bids submitted for each Interest Period requested, (y) the respective principal amounts and Absolute Rates or Eurodollar Competitive Rates, as the case may be, so offered by each Revolving Credit Lender (identifying the Lender that made each Competitive Bid Quote), and (z) its acceptance or nonacceptance of the Competitive Bid Quotes. In the case of acceptance, such notice shall specify the aggregate principal amount of offers for each Interest Period that are accepted. The Borrower may accept any Competitive Bid Quote in whole or in part (provided that any Competitive Bid Quote accepted in part shall be at least $5,000,000 or in increments of $1,000,000 in excess thereof); provided that:

(i) the aggregate principal amount of each Competitive Bid Borrowing may not exceed the applicable amount set forth in the related Competitive Bid Quote Request;

(ii) the aggregate principal amount of each Competitive Bid Borrowing shall be at least $5,000,000 (or an increment of $1,000,000 in excess thereof) but shall not cause the limits specified in Section 2.5(a) hereof to be violated;

(iii) except as provided below, acceptance of Competitive Bid Quotes for any Interest Period may be made only in ascending order of Absolute Rates or Eurodollar Competitive Rates, as the case may be, beginning with the lowest rate so offered; and

(iv) the Borrower may not accept any Competitive Bid Quote where such Competitive Bid Quote fails to comply with Section 2.5(c)(ii) hereof or otherwise fails to comply with the requirements of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 2.5(a) hereof).

Any of the conditions above notwithstanding, the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, accept a Competitive Bid Quote that does not contain the lowest Absolute Rate or Eurodollar Competitive Rates, as the case may be, where acceptance of the Competitive Bid Quote containing the lowest Absolute Rate or Eurodollar Competitive Rate, as the case may be, would be less favorable to the Borrower or would cause the principal amount of Outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations to exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment.

If Competitive Bid Quotes are made by two or more Revolving Credit Lenders with the same Absolute Rates or Eurodollar Competitive Rates, as the case may be, for a greater aggregate principal amount than the amount in respect of which Competitive Bid Quotes are accepted for the related Interest Period after the acceptance of all Competitive Bid Quotes, if any, of all lower Absolute Rates or Eurodollar Competitive Rates, as the case may be, offered by any Revolving Credit Lender for such related Interest Period, the principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans in respect of which such Competitive Bid Quotes are accepted shall be allocated by the Borrower among such Lenders as nearly as possible (in amounts of at least $1,000,000 or in increments of $100,000 in excess thereof) in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of such Competitive Bid Quotes. Determinations by the Borrower of the amounts of Competitive Bid Loans and the lowest bid after adjustment as provided in Section 2.5(d)(iii) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(e) Any Revolving Credit Lender whose offer to make any Competitive Bid Loan has been accepted shall, not later than 1:00 P.M. on the date specified for the making of such Loan, make the amount of such Loan available to the Borrower as shall be directed by the Authorized Representative in Dollars and in immediately available funds.

(f) From time to time, the Borrower shall furnish such information to the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may request relating to the making of Competitive Bid Loans, including the amounts, interest rates, dates of borrowings and maturities thereof.

(g) The Borrower may request the Administrative Agent to receive the Competitive Bid Quotes, in which event the Administrative Agent shall (A) in the case of a Competitive Bid Loan at the Absolute Rate, as promptly as practicable after the Competitive Bid Quote is submitted (but in no event later than 10:00 A.M. on the Quotation Date) or (B) in the case of a Competitive Bid Loan at the Eurodollar Competitive Rate, by 10:00 A.M. on the date a Competitive Quote is submitted, notify the

Borrower of the terms of any Competitive Bid Quote submitted by a Revolving Credit Lender that is in accordance with Section 2.5(c) hereof. The Administrative Agent’s notice to the Borrower shall specify (A) the aggregate principal amount of the Competitive Bid Borrowing for which Competitive Bid Quotes have been received and (B) the respective principal amounts and Absolute Rates or Eurodollar Competitive Rate, as the case may be, offered by each Revolving Credit Lender (identifying the Lender that made each Competitive Bid Quote). Not later than 12:00 Noon on (A) the third Business Day prior to the proposed date of borrowing, in the case of Competitive Bid Loans at the Eurodollar Competitive Rate or (B) the Quotation Date (or, in any such case, such other time and date as the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may agree), the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of their acceptance or nonacceptance of the Competitive Bid Quotes so notified to it (and the failure of the Borrower to give such notice by such time shall constitute nonacceptance) and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender. Together with each notice of a request for Competitive Bid Quotes which the Borrower requires the Administrative Agent to issue pursuant to this paragraph (g), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Administrative Agent a bid administration fee of $1,500.00.

2.6 Payment of Interest. (a) The Borrower shall pay interest (i) to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office for the account of each Lender on the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan and each Term Loan made by such Lender for the period commencing on the date of such Loan until such Loan shall be due at the Eurodollar Rate or the Base Rate, as elected or deemed elected by the Borrower or otherwise applicable to such Loan as herein provided, (ii) to each Revolving Credit Lender making a Competitive Bid Loan at its Applicable Lending Office, at the applicable Absolute Rate or Eurodollar Competitive Rate, as the case may be, and (iii) to the Administrative Agent in the case of each Swing Line Loan, at the Base Rate; provided, however, that if any amount shall not be paid when due (at maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), all amounts outstanding hereunder shall bear interest thereafter at a fluctuating interest rate per annum equal to the Default Rate, or (in each case) the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is lower, from the date such amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full.

(b) Interest on the outstanding principal balance of each Loan shall be computed on the basis of (x) in the case of Loans, other than Loans bearing interest based on the Prime Rate, a year of 360 days and calculated for the actual number of days elapsed and (y) in the case of Loans bearing interest based on the Prime Rate, a year of 365-366 days and calculated for the actual number of days elapsed. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of each Loan shall be paid (a) quarterly in arrears, such payment to be made not later than the third (3rd) Business Day of each April, July, October and January, on each Base Rate Loan, (b) on the last day of the applicable Interest Period for each Eurodollar Loan and Competitive Bid Loan, but in no event less frequently than at the end of each three month period and (c) upon payment in full of the principal amount of such Loan at the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

2.7 Payment of Principal. The principal amount of the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Outstandings shall be due and payable to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of each applicable Lender in full on the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Stated Maturity Date, or earlier as herein expressly provided. The principal amount of the Extended Revolving Credit Outstandings shall be due and payable to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of each applicable Lender in full on the Extended Revolving Credit Stated Maturity Date, or earlier as herein expressly provided. The principal amount of all Swing Line Outstandings shall be due and payable to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Swing Line Lender in full on the Extended Revolving Credit Stated Maturity Date, or earlier as herein expressly provided. The principal amount of all Competitive Bid Loans shall be due and payable to the Lender making such Competitive Bid Loan in full on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, or earlier as herein expressly provided. The principal amount of all Term Loans shall be due and payable to each

Term Lender making such Term Loan as provided in Section 2.3, or earlier as herein expressly provided. Prepayments of Term Loans may not be reborrowed. The principal amount of Eurodollar Loans may only be prepaid at the end of the applicable Interest Period, unless the Borrower shall pay to the applicable Lenders the amounts, if any, required under Section 4.5. The principal amount of Competitive Bid Loans may only be prepaid at the end of the applicable Interest Period, unless (i) the Borrower shall have retained in the Competitive Bid Quote Request with respect to such Competitive Bid Loans the right of prepayment, and (ii) the Borrower shall have paid to the Lender making such Competitive Bid Loans which bear interest at a Eurodollar Competitive Rate or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, the amounts, if any, required under Section 4.5. The Borrower shall furnish the Administrative Agent telephonic notice of its intention to make a principal payment (including Competitive Bid Loans) prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such payment. All payments of principal on Loans other than Competitive Bid Loans and Swing Line Loans shall be in the amount of (i) $10,000,000, or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or (ii) $5,000,000, or such greater amount which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000, in the case of Base Rate Loans. Optional prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans shall be applied ratably to the outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loans. Optional prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied ratably to the outstanding balance of the Term Loans.

2.8 Non-Conforming Payments. (a) Each payment of principal (including any prepayment) and payment of interest (other than principal and interest on Competitive Bid Loans which shall be paid to the Lender making such Loans) shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, for the account of each applicable Lender’s Applicable Lending Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds before 2:00 P.M. on the date such payment is due. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, debit the amount of any such payment which is not made by such time to any ordinary deposit account, if any, of the Borrower with the Administrative Agent.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower hereunder that is not made both (a) in Dollars and in immediately available funds and (b) prior to 2:00 P.M. on the date payment is due to be a non-conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to be received by the Administrative Agent until the time such funds become available funds. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to the Authorized Representative and each of the applicable Lenders (confirmed in writing) if any payment is non-conforming. 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 Business Day) at the applicable rate of interest per annum specified in Section 2.6(a) until the date such amount is paid in Dollars and in immediately available funds.

(c) In the event that any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, then such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day; provided that interest shall continue to accrue during the period of any such extension.

2.9 Pro Rata Payments. Except as otherwise provided herein, (a) each payment and prepayment on account of the principal of and interest on the Revolving Credit Loans and the fees described in Section 2.13(a) hereof shall be made to the Administrative Agent in the aggregate amount payable to the Revolving Credit Lenders for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata based on their applicable Revolving Percentages, (b) each payment and prepayment on account of the principal of and interest on the Term Loans shall be made to the Administrative Agent in the aggregate amount payable to the Term Lenders for the account of the Term Lenders pro rata based on their applicable Term Percentages and each principal prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied to reduce the Term Loans pro rata based upon the respective then remaining principal amounts thereof, (c) each payment of principal and interest on the Competitive Bid Loans shall be made to (i) the Administrative Agent for the

account of the respective Lender making such Competitive Bid Loan if the Borrower has elected that the Administrative Agent act under Section 2.5(g) hereof and (ii) otherwise directly to the Lender making such Competitive Bid Loan, (d) each payment of principal and interest on Swing Line Loans shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of JPMorgan Chase Bank, (e) all payments to be made by the Borrower for the account of each of the Lenders on account of principal, interest and fees, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim except as provided in Section 4.6, and (f) the Administrative Agent will distribute such payments when received to the Lenders as provided for herein and subject to Section 4.6.

2.10 Reductions and Prepayment. (a) Reductions. The Borrower shall, by notice from an Authorized Representative, have the right from time to time (but not more frequently than twice during each Fiscal Year), upon not less than three (3) Business Days irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent to reduce the Total Revolving Credit Commitment without premium or penalty. The Administrative Agent shall give each Revolving Credit Lender, within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice from the Borrower, telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) of such reduction. Each such reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or such greater amount which is in an integral multiple of $1,000,000, and shall permanently reduce the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Any such reduction in the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall be allocated ratably to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitments unless (i) no Revolving Credit Loans or funded Participations are outstanding at the time thereof and (ii) if any Swing Line Obligations or Letter of Credit Obligations are outstanding, the conditions to extensions of credit set forth in Section 5.2 can be satisfied, in which case such reduction may be allocated ratably to the Revolving Credit Commitments under either the Extended Revolving Credit Facility or the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Facility, as selected by the Borrower, and, in such case, any unfunded Participations shall automatically be reallocated ratably among all Revolving Lenders based on their Revolving Percentages after giving effect to such reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments. No such reduction shall be permitted that results in the payment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period of such Loan unless such prepayment is accompanied by amounts due, if any, under Section 4.5. Each reduction of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall be accompanied by payment of the Revolving Credit Loans to the extent that the aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment after giving effect to such reduction, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the amounts prepaid. In no event shall the Borrower be entitled to reduce the Total Revolving Credit Commitment if, as a result of and after giving effect to such reduction, the aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment.

(b) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time, subject to Section 2.7, prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable prior notice which notice may be given by telephone (to be promptly confirmed in writing, including by facsimile) delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, three Business Days prior thereto in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans and no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, one Business Day prior thereto in the case of Base Rate Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of Eurodollar Rate Loans or Base Rate Loans. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans and Swing Line Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Optional prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans shall be applied ratably to the outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loans. Optional prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied ratably to the outstanding balance of the Term Loans.

(c) Non-Extended Revolving Credit Stated Maturity Date. If, on the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Stated Maturity Date, after giving effect to the termination of the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and any payments made on such date pursuant to Section 2.7, the aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments, then the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans to eliminate such excess and, in the event that the Borrower fails to comply with such preceding requirement, the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Stated Maturity Date; provided, that Borrower may use the proceeds of Extended Revolving Credit Loans to repay Non-Extended Revolving Credit Loans on the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Stated Maturity Date.

2.11 Decrease in Amounts. The amount of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment which shall be available to the Borrower shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of all Swing Line Outstandings, Letter of Credit Outstandings and all outstanding Competitive Bid Loans.

2.12 Conversions and Elections of Subsequent Interest Periods. Subject to the limitations set forth below and in Article IV hereof, the Borrower may:

(a) upon notice to the Administrative Agent on or before 12:00 noon on any Business Day Convert all or a part of Eurodollar Loans to Base Rate Loans on the last day of the Interest Period for such Eurodollar Loans; and

(b) provided that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and on three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent on or before 12:00 noon:

(i) elect a subsequent Interest Period for all or a portion of Eurodollar Loans to begin on the last day of the current Interest Period for such Eurodollar Loans; or

(ii) Convert Base Rate Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) to Eurodollar Loans on any Business Day.

Notice of any such elections or Conversions shall specify the effective date of such election or Conversion and, with respect to Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period to be applicable to the Loan as Continued or Converted. Each election and Conversion pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be subject to the limitations on Eurodollar Loans set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” herein and in Article IV hereof. All such Continuations or Conversions of Loans shall be effected pro rata based on the Revolving Percentages or Term Percentages of the applicable Lenders, as the case may be.

2.13 Fees. (a) Facility Fee; Commitment Fee. (i) Until the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Termination Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Non-Extended Revolving Credit Lender based on such Lender’s Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, the quarterly portion of the Applicable Facility Fee for such Lender. Such fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears, such payments to be made not later than the third (3rd) Business Day of each April, July, October and January to and on the Non-Extended Revolving Stated Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as any Lender fails to make available any portion of its Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitment when requested, such Lender shall not be entitled to receive payment of its pro rata share of such fee until such Lender shall make available such portion. Such fee shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed.

(ii) Until the Extended Revolving Credit Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments have terminated), the Borrower agrees to pay to the

Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Extended Revolving Credit Lender based on such Lender’s Extended Available Revolving Credit Commitment, the quarterly portion of the Applicable Commitment Fee for such Lender. Such fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears, such payments to be made not later than the third (3rd) Business Day of each April, July, October and January to and on the Extended Revolving Credit Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments have terminated). Such fee shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed.

(b) Agent Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the Administrative Agent’s individual account, an annual Administrative Agent’s fee to be payable in advance and annually thereafter on the anniversary of the Closing Date such amounts as agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing.

2.14 Deficiency Advances; Failure to Purchase Participations. No Lender shall be responsible for any default of any other Lender in respect of such other Lender’s obligation to make any Loan or Advance hereunder nor shall the Revolving Credit Commitment or Extended Incremental Term Commitment of any Lender hereunder be increased as a result of such default of any other Lender. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or the provisions of Section 2.15, in the event any Lender shall fail to advance funds to the Borrower as herein provided, the Administrative Agent may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, advance to the Borrower all or any portion of such amount or amounts (each, a “deficiency advance”) and shall thereafter be entitled to payments of principal of and interest on such deficiency advance in the same manner and at the same interest rate or rates to which such other Lender would have been entitled had it made such Advance; provided that, (i) such defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive payments of principal, interest or fees with respect to such deficiency advance until such deficiency advance (together with interest thereon as provided in clause (ii)) shall be paid by such Lender and (ii) upon payment to the Administrative Agent from such other Lender of the entire outstanding amount of each such deficiency advance, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, from the most recent date or dates interest was paid to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower on each Loan comprising the deficiency advance at the Federal Funds Rate, then such payment shall be credited in full payment of such deficiency advance and the Borrower shall be deemed to have borrowed the amount of such deficiency advance from such other Lender as of the most recent date or dates, as the case may be, upon which any payments of interest were made by the Borrower thereon.

2.15 Intraday Funding. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.14, unless the Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 Noon of the Business Day before the date any payment (including in the case of Lenders any Advance) to be made by it is due, that it does not intend to remit such payment, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, assume that Borrower or each Lender, as the case may be, has timely remitted such payment in the manner required hereunder and may, in its discretion and in reliance thereon, make available such payment (or portion thereof) to the Person entitled thereto as otherwise provided herein. If such payment was not in fact remitted to the Administrative Agent in the manner required hereunder, then:

(i) if Borrower failed to make such payment, each applicable Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the amount of such assumed payment made available to such Lender, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate; and

(ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s

demand therefor, the Administrative Agent promptly shall notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall promptly pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds upon receipt of such demand. The Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, (A) from such Lender at a rate per annum equal to the daily Federal Funds Rate or (B) from the Borrower, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to the Loan which includes such corresponding amount. Until the Administrative Agent shall recover such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, such corresponding amount shall constitute a deficiency advance within the meaning of Section 2.14. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

2.16 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans and the Letters of Credit issued pursuant to the Letter of Credit Facility shall be used by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries to repay indebtedness, finance acquisitions and for working capital, capital expenditures, share repurchases and other general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

2.17 Swing Line. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in order to administer the Revolving Credit Facility in an efficient manner and to minimize the transfer of funds between the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders, JPMorgan Chase Bank, in its individual capacity and not as Administrative Agent, and subject to the provisions of Section 2.17(c), shall make available Swing Line Loans to the Borrower prior to the Extended Revolving Credit Termination Date. JPMorgan Chase Bank shall not make any Swing Line Loan pursuant hereto (i) if to the actual knowledge of JPMorgan Chase Bank the Borrower is not in compliance with all the conditions to the making of Loans set forth in this Agreement, (ii) if after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Outstandings exceed $25,000,000, or (iii) if after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan, the aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Swing Line Loans shall be limited to Base Rate Loans unless JPMorgan Chase Bank and the Borrower shall agree otherwise. The Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.17. Unless notified to the contrary by JPMorgan Chase Bank, borrowings under the Swing Line shall be made in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 or, if greater, in amounts which are integral multiples of $100,000, or in the amount necessary to effect a Base Rate Refunding Loan, upon irrevocable telephonic notice, by an Authorized Representative of Borrower made to JPMorgan Chase Bank not later than 12:30 P.M. on the Business Day of the requested borrowing. The Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent written confirmation of each such telephonic notice on the same day by telefacsimile or electronic transmission in the form of a Borrowing Notice. Each such Borrowing Notice shall specify the amount of the borrowing, and the date of borrowing, and shall be in the form of Exhibit D-3, with appropriate insertions. Unless notified to the contrary by JPMorgan Chase Bank, each repayment of a Swing Line Loan shall be in an amount which is an integral multiple of $100,000 or the aggregate amount of all Swing Line Outstandings. If the Borrower instructs JPMorgan Chase Bank to debit any demand deposit account of the Borrower in the amount of any payment with respect to a Swing Line Loan, or JPMorgan Chase Bank otherwise receives repayment, after 2:00 P.M. on a Business Day, such payment shall be deemed received on the next Business Day.

(b) Swing Line Loans shall bear interest at the Base Rate applicable to Extended Revolving Credit Loans or at any rate otherwise mutually agreed upon by JPMorgan Chase Bank and the Borrower. The interest payable on Swing Line Loans is solely for the account of JPMorgan Chase Bank, and all accrued and unpaid interest on Swing Line Loans shall be payable on the dates and in the manner provided in Section 2.6 with respect to interest on Base Rate Loans.

(c) Upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have purchased from JPMorgan Chase Bank a Participation therein in an amount determined with reference to such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such Swing Line Loan. Upon demand made by JPMorgan Chase Bank, each Revolving Credit Lender shall, according to its Revolving Percentage of such Swing Line Loan, promptly provide to JPMorgan Chase Bank its purchase price therefor in an amount equal to its Participation therein. Any Advance made by a Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to demand of JPMorgan Chase Bank of the purchase price of its Participation shall be deemed (i) provided that the conditions to making Revolving Credit Loans shall be satisfied, a Base Rate Refunding Loan under Section 2.4 until the Borrower converts such Base Rate Loan in accordance with the terms of Section 2.12, and (ii) in all other cases, the funding by each Revolving Credit Lender of the purchase price of its Participation in such Swing Line Loan. The obligation of each Revolving Credit Lender to so provide its purchase price to JPMorgan Chase Bank shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence of a Default, an Event of Default or any other occurrence or event. Simultaneously with the making of each such payment by a Revolving Credit Lender to JPMorgan Chase Bank to fund such Lender’s purchase price of a Participation in such Swing Line Loan pursuant to clause (ii) of this paragraph, such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of JPMorgan Chase Bank or such Lender, have the right to enforce its Participation in an amount equal to such payment (excluding the portion thereof constituting interest accrued prior to the date the Revolving Credit Lender made its payment) in the related rights of JPMorgan Chase Bank with respect to obligations of the Borrower as to such Swing Line Loan (it being understood that the interest component thereof accruing after the date referred to in the previous parenthetical shall be based on the Base Rate applicable to the relevant Revolving Facility).

The Borrower, at its option and subject to the terms hereof, may request an Advance pursuant to Section 2.4 in an amount sufficient to repay Swing Line Outstandings on any date and the Administrative Agent shall provide from the proceeds of such Advance to JPMorgan Chase Bank the amount necessary to repay such Swing Line Outstandings (which JPMorgan Chase Bank shall then apply to such repayment) and credit any balance of the Advance in immediately available funds in the manner directed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(iii). The proceeds of such Advances shall be paid to JPMorgan Chase Bank for application to the Swing Line Outstandings and the Revolving Credit Lenders shall then be deemed to have made Revolving Credit Loans in the amount of such Advances. The Swing Line shall continue in effect until the Extended Revolving Credit Termination Date, at which time all Swing Line Outstandings and accrued interest thereon shall be due and payable in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Swing Line Outstandings shall be immediately due and payable at any time upon notice by JPMorgan Chase Bank or the Administrative Agent to the Borrower. In the event the Revolving Credit Lenders have funded Participations in any Swing Line Loan, then at the time payment (in fully collected, immediately available funds) of any principal amount of, or interest on, such Swing Line Loan, in whole or in part, is received by JPMorgan Chase Bank or the Administrative Agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank or the Administrative Agent (as applicable) shall promptly pay to each Revolving Credit Lender an amount equal to its Revolving Percentage of such payment from the Borrower.

(d) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(c), on the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Termination Date (and without any further action), and so long as the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall not have terminated at or prior to such time (whether pursuant to Article IX or otherwise), the Participations in respect of all outstanding Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Extended Revolving Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Percentages as of such date (after giving effect to the termination of the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) and the Non-Extended Revolving Lenders shall be released from their Participations in respect of such outstanding Swing Line Loans.

2.18 Increased Amounts. (a) The Borrower shall have the right from time to time, without the consent of the Lenders, subject to the terms of this Section 2.18 and provided that the Borrower has obtained any required consents of third parties, to effectuate, (i) prior to the date of any voluntary reduction of the Extended Total Revolving Credit Commitment (other than any reduction pursuant to Section 4.8(e)), an increase in the Extended Total Revolving Credit Commitment under this Agreement in an aggregate amount not to exceed $200,000,000 and (ii) in addition to any increases pursuant to clause (i), from and after the date on which the Borrower takes any action pursuant to Section 4.8(e), an increase in the Extended Total Revolving Credit Commitment in the amount equal to or less than (in the discretion of the Borrower) the amount of such terminated Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, in each case, by adding to this Agreement one or more Persons acceptable to the Borrower and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, who shall, upon completion of the requirements of this Section 2.18, constitute an “Extended Revolving Credit Lender” or “Extended Revolving Credit Lenders” hereunder (each an “Added Lender”), or by allowing one or more Extended Revolving Credit Lenders in their sole discretion to increase their respective Extended Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder (each an “Increasing Lender”), so that such increased Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall equal the aggregate increase in the Extended Total Revolving Credit Commitment effectuated pursuant to this Section 2.18; provided that (A) the aggregate addition of or increase in the Extended Revolving Credit Commitment of any Lender to be effected under this Section 2.18 (collectively, the “Added Commitments”) shall be, other than increases pursuant to clause (ii) above, in an amount not less than $5,000,000, and, if greater than $5,000,000, an integral multiple of $1,000,000, (B) no increase in or added Extended Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall result in the sum of the Extended Total Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder exceeding $781,582,051.61, (C) no Lender’s Extended Revolving Credit Commitment shall be increased under this Section 2.18 without the consent of such Lender, and (D) there shall not exist any Default or Event of Default immediately prior to and immediately after giving effect to any such Added Commitment. The Borrower shall deliver or pay, as applicable, to the Administrative Agent not later than five (5) Business Days prior to any such increase in the Extended Total Revolving Credit Commitment each of the following items with respect to each Added Lender and Increasing Lender:

(i) a written notice of Borrower’s intention to increase the Extended Total Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.18, which shall specify each Added Lender and Increasing Lender, the proposed effective date for the increase in Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the amounts of the Added Commitments of each such Lender that will result (which amounts shall be subject to confirmation by the Administrative Agent), and such other information as is reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent;

(ii) documents in the form of Exhibit K or Exhibit L, as may be required by the Administrative Agent, executed and delivered by each Added Lender and each Increasing Lender, pursuant to which it becomes a party hereto or increases its Extended Revolving Credit Commitment; and

(iii) a non-refundable processing fee of $3,500 with respect to each Added Lender or Increasing Lender for the sole account of the Administrative Agent.

(b) Upon receipt of any notice referred to in clause (a)(i) above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof and shall distribute an amended Exhibit A (which shall be deemed effective as of the Increased Commitment Date referred to below and thereupon incorporated into this Agreement) to reflect any changes therein resulting from such increase. Upon execution and

delivery of the documents and the payment of the fee as described above, and upon delivery to the Administrative Agent by each Added Lender and Increasing Lender for further delivery to the Borrower or other Revolving Credit Lenders (as applicable) of immediately available, freely transferable funds in an amount equal to, for each Added Lender, such Added Lender’s Revolving Percentage (after giving effect to all Added Commitments) of Extended Revolving Credit Outstandings and funded Participations and, for each Increasing Lender, the product of the increase in such Increasing Lender’s Revolving Percentage (after giving effect to all Added Commitments) multiplied by the sum of Extended Revolving Credit Outstandings and funded Participations, as applicable (the “Increased Commitment Date”), (x) each such Added Lender shall constitute a “Revolving Credit Lender” for all purposes under this Agreement and related documents without any acknowledgment by or the consent of the other Lenders, with an Extended Revolving Credit Commitment as specified in such documents and revised Exhibit A, (y) each such Increasing Lender’s Extended Revolving Credit Commitment shall increase as specified in such documents and revised Exhibit A, and each other Lender’s Revolving Percentage shall be adjusted to reflect the Added Commitments and shall be specified in such revised Exhibit A, as the case may be. As of the Increased Commitment Date, (i) the respective Revolving Percentages of the Lenders shall be deemed modified as appropriate to correspond to such Added Commitments, and (ii) on the Increased Commitment Date, to the extent necessary to keep all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and funded Participations ratable among all Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with any revised Revolving Percentages arising from any Added Commitments under this Section 2.18, all Interest Periods then outstanding shall be deemed to be terminated without further action or consent of the Borrower and the Borrower shall pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 4.5 in connection therewith). In addition, if there are at such time outstanding any Extended Revolving Credit Outstandings and funded Participations, each Extended Revolving Credit Lender whose Revolving Percentage has been decreased as a result of the increase in the Extended Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall be deemed to have assigned, without recourse, to each Added Lender and Increasing Lender such portion of such Lender’s Extended Revolving Credit Outstandings or funded Participations as shall be necessary to effectuate such adjustment in Revolving Percentages. Each Increasing Lender and Added Lender (i) shall be deemed to have assumed such portion of such Extended Revolving Credit Outstandings and funded Participations and (ii) shall fund to each other Extended Revolving Credit Lender on the Increased Commitment Date the amount of Extended Revolving Credit Outstandings and funded Participations assigned to it by such Lender. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Extended Revolving Credit Lenders on demand any and all amounts required pursuant to Section 4.5 resulting from any such assignment of Extended Revolving Credit Outstandings.

ARTICLE III

Letters of Credit

3.1 Letters of Credit. (a) The Issuing Banks agree, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon request of the Borrower, to issue from time to time for the account of the Borrower Letters of Credit upon delivery to the applicable Issuing Bank of an Application and Agreement for Letter of Credit relating thereto in form and content acceptable to such Issuing Bank; provided, that (i) no Issuing Bank shall issue (or renew) any Letter of Credit if it has been notified by the Administrative Agent or has actual knowledge that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the aggregate Letter of Credit Outstandings shall not exceed the Total Letter of Credit Commitment and (iii) no Letter of Credit shall be issued (or renewed) if, after giving effect thereto, Letter of Credit Outstandings plus Revolving Credit Outstandings plus Swing Line Outstandings plus outstanding Competitive Bid Loans shall exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. No Letter of Credit shall

have an expiry date (including all rights of the Borrower or any beneficiary named in such Letter of Credit to require renewal, but not any renewal options that are subject to the approval of the Issuing Bank) or payment date occurring later than the earlier to occur of one year after the date of its issuance or the fifth Business Day prior to the Extended Revolving Credit Stated Maturity Date. Each request by the Borrower for the issuance or renewal of a Letter of Credit, whether pursuant to an Application and Agreement for Letter of Credit or otherwise, shall constitute its certification that the conditions specified in Section 5.2 with respect to such issuance or renewal have been satisfied. At any one time during the term of this Agreement, not more than four (4) different Revolving Credit Lenders shall be allowed to act as an Issuing Bank.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10(c), on the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Termination Date (and without any further action), and so long as the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall not have terminated at or prior to such time (whether pursuant to Article IX or otherwise), the Participations in respect of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among the Extended Revolving Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Percentages as of such date (after giving effect to the termination of the Non-Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) and the Non-Extended Revolving Lenders shall be released from their Participations in respect of such outstanding Letters of Credit.

3.2 Reimbursement and Participations.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally agrees to pay to the applicable Issuing Bank immediately on demand at its Applicable Lending Office all amounts required to pay all drafts drawn under any Letters of Credit and all reasonable expenses incurred by an Issuing Bank in connection with the Letters of Credit, and in any event and without demand to place in possession of the applicable Issuing Bank (which shall include Advances under the Revolving Credit Facility if permitted by Section 2.4 and Swing Line Loans if permitted by Section 2.17) sufficient funds to pay all debts and liabilities arising under any Letter of Credit. The Borrower’s obligations to pay an Issuing Bank under this Section 3.2, and such Issuing Bank’s right to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever. Each Issuing Bank agrees to give the Borrower prompt notice of any request for a draw under a Letter of Credit, but failure to provide such notice shall not affect the parties’ Obligations with respect thereto. Each Issuing Bank may charge any account the Borrower may have with it for any and all amounts such Issuing Bank pays under a Letter of Credit, plus reasonable charges and reasonable expenses as from time to time agreed to by such Issuing Bank and the Borrower; provided that to the extent permitted by Section 2.4(c)(iv) and Section 2.17, such amounts shall be paid pursuant to Advances under the Revolving Credit Facility or, if the Borrower shall elect, by Swing Line Loans. The Borrower agrees that an Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, accept or pay, as complying with the terms of any Letter of Credit, any drafts or other documents otherwise in order which may be signed or issued by an administrator, executor, trustee in bankruptcy, debtor in possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver, attorney in fact or other legal representative of a party who is authorized under such Letter of Credit to draw or issue any drafts or other documents. The Borrower agrees to pay an Issuing Bank interest on any Reimbursement Obligations not paid when due hereunder at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Extended Revolving Credit Facility.

(b) In accordance with the provisions of Section 2.4(c), each Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent (and shall also notify the Borrower) of any drawing under any Letter of Credit as promptly as practicable following the receipt by the Issuing Bank of such drawing, but failure to provide such notice shall not affect the parties’ Obligations with respect thereto.

(c) Each Revolving Credit Lender (other than the applicable Issuing Bank) shall automatically acquire on the date of issuance thereof, a Participation in the liability of such Issuing Bank

in respect of each Letter of Credit in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such liability, and to the extent that the Borrower is obligated to pay such Issuing Bank under Section 3.2(a), each Revolving Credit Lender (other than the Issuing Bank) thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, and shall be unconditionally obligated to pay to such Issuing Bank, its Revolving Percentage of the liability of such Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit in the manner and with the effect provided in Section 2.4(c)(iv). With respect to drawings under any of the Letters of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender, upon receipt from the Administrative Agent of notice of a drawing in the manner described in Section 2.4(c)(iv), shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, prior to the applicable time set forth in Section 2.4(c)(iv), its Revolving Percentage of such drawing. Simultaneously with the making of each such payment by a Revolving Credit Lender to an Issuing Bank, such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of such Issuing Bank or such Lender, acquire a Participation in an amount equal to such payment (excluding the portion thereof constituting interest accrued prior to the date such Lender made its payment) in the related Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. The Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower shall be immediately due and payable upon notice to the Borrower, whether in Advances made in accordance with Section 2.4(c)(iv) or otherwise. Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(iv) and this Section 3.2(c), and the right of such Issuing Bank to receive the same, shall be absolute and unconditional, shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever and shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. In the event the Revolving Credit Lenders have purchased Participations in any Reimbursement Obligation as set forth above, then at any time payment (in fully collected, immediately available funds) of such Reimbursement Obligation, in whole or in part, is received by the applicable Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent from the Borrower, such Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each Revolving Credit Lender an amount equal to its Revolving Percentage of such payment from the Borrower. If any Revolving Credit Lender is obligated to pay but does not pay amounts to the Administrative Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank in full upon such request as required by this Section 3.2(c), such Lender shall, on demand, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank interest on the unpaid amount for each day during the period commencing on the date of notice given to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.4(c) until such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank in full at the Federal Funds Rate.

(d) As soon as practical following the issuance of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender, of the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, the stated amount and the expiry date of such Letter of Credit. Promptly following the end of each calendar quarter, each Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a notice describing the aggregate undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit at the end of such quarter. Upon the request of any Revolving Credit Lender from time to time, each Issuing Bank shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall deliver to such Lender, any other information reasonably requested by such Lender with respect to the Letter of Credit Outstandings.

(e) Each issuance by an Issuing Bank of a Letter of Credit shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Article V, be subject to the conditions that (x) such Letter of Credit be in such form and contain such terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank consistent with the then current practices and procedures of such Issuing Bank with respect to similar letters of credit, (y) the issuance of such Letter of Credit shall not violate any written policy of the Issuing Bank, and (z) the Borrower shall have executed and delivered such other instruments and agreements relating to such Letters of Credit as the Issuing Bank shall have reasonably requested consistent with such practices and procedures. Except as otherwise provided therein, all Letters of Credit shall be governed by the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance).

(f) Without limiting the generality of the provisions of Section 11.9, the Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Issuing Bank, each other Revolving Credit Lender and the Administrative Agent from and against any and all claims and damages, losses, liabilities, and reasonable costs and expenses which such Issuing Bank, such other Revolving Credit Lender or the Administrative Agent may incur (or which may be claimed against such Issuing Bank, such other Revolving Credit Lender or the Administrative Agent) by any Person by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Letter of Credit; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify an Issuing Bank, any other Revolving Credit Lender or the Administrative Agent for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, (i) caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the party to be indemnified or (ii) caused by the failure of an Issuing Bank to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a request for payment strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit, unless such payment is prohibited by any law, regulation, court order or decree or failure to pay is permitted under the terms of the Applicable Letter of Credit. The indemnification and hold harmless provisions of this Section 3.2(f) shall survive repayment of the Obligations, occurrence of the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the Facility Termination Date and expiration or termination of this Agreement.

(g) Without limiting the provisions of Section 3.2(f), the obligation of the Borrower to immediately reimburse an Issuing Bank for drawings made under Letters of Credit and each Issuing Bank’s right to receive such payment shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and such obligations of the Borrower shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such Letters of Credit and the related Application and Agreement for any Letter of Credit, under all circumstances whatsoever, including the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Letter of Credit, the obligation supported by the Letter of Credit or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (collectively, the “Related LC Documents”);

(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to or departure from all or any of the Related LC Documents;

(iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense (other than the defense of payment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) or other rights which the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Person, whether in connection with the Loan Documents, the Related LC Documents or any unrelated transaction;

(iv) any breach of contract or other dispute between the Borrower and any beneficiary or any transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any persons or entities for whom such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Person;

(v) any draft, statement or any other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever so long as any such document appeared to comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit;

(vi) any delay, extension of time, renewal, compromise or other indulgence or modification granted or agreed to by the Administrative Agent, with or without notice to or approval by the Borrower in respect of any of Borrower’s Obligations; or

(vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever where the applicable Issuing Bank has acted in good faith, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing;

provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to release an Issuing Bank or any other Lender of any liability for actual loss arising as a result of its gross negligence or willful misconduct or out of the wrongful dishonor by an Issuing Bank of a proper demand for payment made under and strictly complying with the terms of any Letter of Credit.

3.3 Governmental Action. No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Letter of Credit any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Bank in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it, unless the Borrower agrees to compensate the Issuing Bank for such restriction, reserve, capital requirement, loss, cost or expense on terms satisfactory to the Issuing Bank.

3.4 Letter of Credit Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent, for the pro rata benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders based on their applicable Revolving Percentages, a fee on the aggregate amount available to be drawn on each Letter of Credit Outstanding at a rate equal to the Applicable Eurodollar Margin with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Facility or the Non-Extended Revolving Facility, as the case may be, as in effect from time to time, and (ii) to the applicable Issuing Bank, as issuer of each Letter of Credit, an issuance fee in such amount as may be agreed by such Issuing Bank and the Borrower from time to time. Such payments of fees provided for in this Section 3.4 shall be due with respect to each Letter of Credit quarterly in arrears, such payment to be made not later than the third (3rd) Business Day of each April, July, October and January, commencing on the first such date following the issuance of a Letter of Credit under this Agreement. Such fees shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days elapsed.

3.5 Administrative Fees. The Borrower shall pay to any Issuing Bank such standard administrative fee and other standard fees, if any, in connection with the Letters of Credit in such amounts and at such times as such Issuing Bank and the Borrower shall agree from time to time.

ARTICLE IV

Change in Circumstances

4.1 Increased Cost and Reduced Return.

(a) If after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, the adoption of any applicable law, rule, or regulation, or any change in any applicable law, rule, or regulation, or any change 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 request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such governmental authority, central bank, or comparable agency:

(i) shall subject such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) to any increase in the cost (other than Taxes and Other Taxes as to which Section 4.6 shall govern, and other than the Reserve Requirement utilized in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate or Eurodollar Competitive Rate) of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loans, any Competitive Bid Loans bearing interest at a Eurodollar Competitive Rate or its obligation to make Eurodollar Loans or Competitive Bid Loans at the Eurodollar Competitive Rate, or change the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement in respect of any Eurodollar Rate Loans or Competitive Bid Loans at the Eurodollar Competitive Rate (other than taxes imposed on the income, assets, receipts or branch profits of such Lender, franchise taxes, or taxes described in Sections 4.6(a)(ii)-(vi) in each case by the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office or such Applicable Lending Office);

(ii) shall impose, modify, or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment or similar requirement (other than the Reserve Requirement utilized in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate or Eurodollar Competitive Rate) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities or commitments of, such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office), including the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) or on the London interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities or commitments;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) of making, Converting into, Continuing, or maintaining any Loans or to reduce any sum received or receivable by such Lender (or its Applicable Lending Office) under this Agreement in each case with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans or any Competitive Bid Loans bearing interest at a Eurodollar Competitive Rate, then, within five (5) Business Days of the Borrower’s receipt of a request certifying in reasonable detail calculations of such amount and the basis therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction, provided, that no Lender shall be entitled to claim any such amount or amounts for such increased cost or reduction incurred more than six months prior to the delivery of such request. If any Lender requests compensation by the Borrower under this Section 4.1(a), the Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue Loans of the Type with respect to which such compensation is requested, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into Loans of such Type, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 4.4 shall be applicable); provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

(b) If after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of any applicable law, rule, or regulation 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 any request or directive made or issued after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date 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 such Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change, request, or

directive (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, within five (5) Business Days of the Borrower’s receipt of a request certifying in reasonable detail calculations of such amount and the basis therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction, provided, that no Lender shall be entitled to claim any such amount or amounts for such increased cost incurred more than six months prior to the delivery of such request.

(c) Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 4.1 and will designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to it. Any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 4.1 shall furnish to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a statement setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(d) The provisions of this Section 4.1 shall continue in effect notwithstanding the Facility Termination Date.

4.2 Limitation on Types of Loans. If on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan or Competitive Bid Loan bearing interest at a Eurodollar Competitive Rate:

(a) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate or Eurodollar Competitive Rate, as the case may be, for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Required Lenders determine in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive) and notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate or Eurodollar Competitive Rate, as the case may be, will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding Eurodollar Rate Loans or Competitive Bid Loan bearing interest at a Eurodollar Competitive Rate for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower prompt notice thereof specifying the relevant Type of Loans and the relevant amounts or periods, and so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to make additional Loans of such Type, Continue Loans of such Type, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into Loans of such Type and the Borrower shall, on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for the outstanding Loans of the affected Type, either prepay such Loans or Convert such Loans into another Type of Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

4.3 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to make, maintain, or fund Eurodollar Rate Loans or Competitive Bid Loans bearing interest at the Eurodollar Competitive Rate hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue Eurodollar Rate Loans or Competitive Bid Loans bearing interest at the Eurodollar Competitive Rate and to Convert other Types of Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans or Competitive Bid Loans bearing interest at the Eurodollar Competitive Rate shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make, maintain, and fund Eurodollar Rate Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 4.4 shall be applicable).

4.4 Treatment of Affected Loans. If the obligation of any Lender to make a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a Competitive Bid Loan bearing interest at a Eurodollar Competitive Rate or to Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, Loans of a particular Type shall be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.3 hereof (Loans of such Type being herein called “Affected Loans” and such Type being herein called the “Affected Type”), such Lender’s Affected Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for Affected Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion required by Section 4.3 hereof, on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 4.1 or 4.3 hereof that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:

(a) to the extent that such Lender’s Affected Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s Affected Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

(b) all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as Loans of the Affected Type shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into Loans of the Affected Type shall be Converted instead into (or shall remain as) Base Rate Loans.

If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 4.1 or 4.3 hereof that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s Affected Loans pursuant to this Section 4.4 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when Loans of the Affected Type made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding Loans of the Affected Type, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding Loans of the Affected Type and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages or Term Percentages, as applicable.

4.5 Compensation. Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan or Competitive Bid Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise); or

(b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan notwithstanding satisfaction of all conditions precedent thereto) to prepay, borrow, Continue (including by reason of any prepayment) or Convert any Eurodollar Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower;

including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 4.5, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan or Competitive Bid Loan made by it at the Interbank Offered Rate used in determining the Eurodollar Rate or Eurodollar

Competitive Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the applicable offshore Dollar interbank market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

The provisions of this Section 4.5 shall continue in effect notwithstanding the Facility Termination Date.

4.6 Taxes. (a) Subject to Sections 4.6(d) and 4.6(e), any and all payments by or on behalf of any Loan Party to or for the account of any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, (i) net income taxes, franchise taxes or branch profits taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document), (ii) any United States withholding taxes payable with respect to payments hereunder on the date such Lender or Administrative Agent becomes a Lender or the Administrative Agent (as applicable), except to the extent that such Lender’s or Administrative Agent’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower with respect to such taxes pursuant to this paragraph, (iii) any taxes arising after the Closing Date solely as a result of or attributable to Lender changing its designated lending office after the date such Lender becomes a party hereto (other than a change pursuant to Section 4.6(g)), (iv) any taxes that are imposed by reason of Section 1471 or Section 1472 of the Code other than by reason of a change in Law imposed after the date hereof, (v) any taxes that are imposed by reason of a Lender’s failure to comply with its obligations under Section 4.6(d) and (vi) backup withholding taxes imposed under Section 3406 of the Code (all such non-excluded taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings, and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.6) such Lender or the Administrative Agent receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law, and (iv) the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 11.2, the original or a certified copy of a receipt or other reasonably acceptable documentation evidencing payment thereof.

(b) In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 4.6) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto.

(d) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of any applicable withholding tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding (including any documentation necessary to prevent withholding under Section 1471 or Section 1472 of the Code). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender (or Assignee) that is not a “U.S. Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) two copies of U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form W-8BEN, Form W-8ECI or Form W-8IMY (together with any applicable underlying IRS forms), or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit M and the applicable IRS Form W-8, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on payments under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation) and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender. Each Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower or Administrative Agent (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section that such Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(e) Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent for the full amount of any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings or similar charges imposed by any Governmental Authority that are attributable to such Lender and that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, together with all interest, penalties, reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender pursuant to this Section 4.6, then such Lender will agree to use reasonable efforts to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office so as to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue if such change, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(g) Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent the original or certified copy of a receipt or other reasonably acceptable documentation evidencing such payment.

(h) The provisions of this Section 4.6 shall continue in effect notwithstanding the Facility Termination Date.

4.7 Replacement Lenders. The Borrower may, in its sole discretion, on ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and a Lender, cause a Lender that (a) is or may

become entitled to receive any indemnification payment, additional amount or other compensation under this Article IV or that fails to make Loans for the reasons provided in this Article IV or (b) does not consent to any proposed amendment, supplement, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that requires the consent of each of the Lenders or each of the Lenders affected thereby (so long as the consent of the Required Lenders has been obtained) to (and such Lender shall) assign pursuant to Section 11.1 hereof (with such Lender being deemed to have executed an Assignment and Assumption for the purpose of effecting such assignment), all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to another Lender, an Affiliate of another Lender or a Person reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and designated by the Borrower which is willing to become a Lender for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Lender, together with any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans, any accrued but unpaid fees with respect to such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and any other amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement; provided, that any expenses or other amounts which would be owing to such Lender pursuant to any indemnification provision hereunder shall be payable by the Borrower to such Lender. The replacement Lender under this Section shall pay the applicable processing fee under Section 11.1.

4.8 Defaulting Revolving Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) commitment fees shall cease to accrue on the Extended Available Revolving Credit Commitment (if any) of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.13(a)(ii);

(b) if any Swing Line Outstandings or Letter of Credit Outstandings exist at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of such Swing Line Outstandings and Letter of Credit Outstandings shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders’ Outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are satisfied at such time; and

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the Swing Line Outstandings (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) and (y) second, (1) if a drawing is made under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank in accordance with Section 2.4(c)(iv) and (2) if a Letter of Credit is requested by the Borrower in accordance with Section 3.1(a) during any period where there is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower shall enter into an arrangement reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank to cover in whole or in part (which such arrangement may include cash collateralization) the exposure of the Issuing Bank related to the participating interests of such Defaulting Lender in such newly issued Letter of Credit Outstandings (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender or until such Lender is replaced pursuant to Section 4.7;

(iii) if and so long as the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Percentage of Letter of Credit Outstandings pursuant to Section 4.8(b)(ii), then, in the case of any such Defaulting Lender that is an Extended Revolving Credit Lender, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.4 with respect thereto;

(iv) upon any reallocation described in clause (i) above, the fees payable to the Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to Section 2.13(a)(ii) and 3.4 shall be adjusted accordingly; and

(v) if any such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Percentage of Letter of Credit Outstandings is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to Section 4.8(b)(i), then, if such Defaulting Lender is an Extended Revolving Credit Lender, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Banks or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 3.4 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Percentage of Letter of Credit Outstandings shall be payable to the relevant Issuing Bank until such cash collateralization and/or reallocation occurs;

(c) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is reasonably satisfied that the related exposure will be covered in whole or in part by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders and/or cash collateral or other arrangements will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 4.8(b)(ii), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swing Line Loan shall be (i) allocated among non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders and/or (ii) covered by arrangements made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.8(b)(ii) in a manner consistent with Section 4.8(b)(i) and (ii) (and any such Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein); and

(d) in the case of any Defaulting Lender that is an Extended Revolving Credit Lender, any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.3 but excluding Section 4.7) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender and without duplication, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated interest-bearing account reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder, (ii) second, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Banks or Swing Line Lender hereunder, (iii) third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by an Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, held in such account as cash collateral for existing or (unless such Defaulting Lender has no remaining unutilized Extended Revolving Credit Commitment) future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of any existing or (unless such Defaulting Lender has no remaining unutilized Extended Revolving Credit Commitment) future Participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit, (iv) fourth, to the funding of any Revolving Credit Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent, (v) fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, unless such Defaulting Lender has no remaining unutilized Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of any Extended Revolving Credit Loans under this Agreement, (vi) sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement, (vii) seventh, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this

Agreement, and (viii) eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction, provided, that, with respect to this clause (viii), if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the principal amount of any Revolving Credit Loans or Reimbursement Obligations as to which a Defaulting Lender has funded its Participation and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Revolving Credit Loans of, and Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Revolving Credit Loans of, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender.

(e) Upon not less than three Business Days’ prior notice to such Defaulting Lender and the Administrative Agent (which the Administrative Agent will promptly provide to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lender), the Borrower shall have the right to terminate the then unutilized Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, after taking into account the portion of such Revolving Credit Commitment, if any, which theretofore has been, or substantially contemporaneous therewith is being, assigned pursuant to Section 4.7. In the event of any such termination, future extensions of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be allocated to the non-Defaulting Revolving Credit Lenders in a manner that disregards the existence of any remaining Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, each Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender each agrees that any such Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then (i) the Swing Line Outstandings and Letter of Credit Outstandings of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Credit Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swing Line Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Percentage and (ii) any arrangements made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.8(b)(ii) shall be terminated and any cash collateral or arrangement provided by the Borrower in accordance thereto will be terminated or promptly returned to the Borrower, as applicable.

The provisions of this Agreement relating to funding, payment and other matters with respect to the Revolving Facility may be adjusted by the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), to the extent necessary to give effect to the provisions of this Section 4.8. The provisions of this Section 4.8 may not be amended, supplemented or modified without, in addition to consents required by Section 11.6, the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower.

The Administrative Agent

10.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,

and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

10.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys in fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in fact selected by it with reasonable care.

10.3 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party.

10.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 5.1, each Lender shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter either sent by the Administrative Agent to such Lender for consent, approval, acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender.

10.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

10.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or affiliates.

10.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so to the extent required by Section 11.9 hereof), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in

connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

10.8 Agent in its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

10.9 Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 9.1(g) or (h) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

10.10 Other Agents, etc. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the cover page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “Syndication Agent,” “Documentation Agent,” “Co-Lead Arranger” or “Joint Bookrunner” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

ARTICLE XI

Miscellaneous

11.1 Assignments and Participations. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section.

(b)(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(A) the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Person (in which case the Borrower shall instead be promptly notified of such assignment by the assigning Lender unless the Assignee is an Affiliate of such assigning Lender); and

(B) the Administrative Agent, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund (as defined below).

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans under any Facility, the amount of the Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

(B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee shall not be reimbursed by the Borrower); and

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire.

For the purposes of this Section 11.1, “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.1, 4.5, 4.6 and 11.9). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights

or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.1 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register, including the total ownership interest of the relevant Loan that the Assignee owns subsequent to the assignment. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c)(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of or notice to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including with respect to the matters described in this Section 11.1(c)(i)) and (D) such participations shall be in a minimum amount equal to the lesser of $5,000,000 or the remaining portion of a Lender’s rights and obligations hereunder which are not subject to a pre-existing participation. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to Section 11.6(a) or (b) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.1, 4.5 and 4.6 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.3(b) as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant shall be subject to Section 11.3(a) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.1, 4.5 or 4.6 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 the Borrower’s prior written consent. Any Participant that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.6 unless such Participant complies with Section 4.6(d).

(iii) Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, and such Lender, each Loan Party and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue a Note to any Lender requiring such Note to facilitate transactions of the type described in this paragraph (d).

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Lender will assign or sell participations in all or a portion of its Loans or Commitments to any Person who is (i) listed on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List maintained by the U.S. Department of Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) and/or on any other similar list maintained by the OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute, Executive Order or regulation or (ii) either (A) included within the term “designated national” as defined in the Cuban Assets Control Regulations, 31 C.F.R. Part 515, or (B) designated under Sections 1(a), 1(b), 1(c) or 1(d) of Executive Order No. 13224, 66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (published September 25, 2001) or similarly designated under any related enabling legislation or any other similar Executive Orders.

11.2 Notices. Any notice shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by any party hereto and be effective (i) on the day on which delivered (including hand delivery by commercial courier service) to such party (against receipt therefor), (ii) on the date of transmission to such party, in the case of notice by telefacsimile (where the proper transmission of such notice is either acknowledged by the recipient or electronically confirmed by the transmitting device), or (iii) on the fifth Business Day after the day on which mailed to such party, if sent prepaid by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, in each case delivered, transmitted or mailed, as the case may be, to the address or telefacsimile number, as appropriate, set forth below or such other address or number as such party shall specify by notice hereunder:

11.3 Right of Set-off; Adjustments. (a) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this Section 11.3 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Lender may have.

(b) If any Lender (a “benefitted Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Loans owing to it, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or

collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans owing to it, or interest thereon, such benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loans owing to it, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefitted Lender or is repaid in whole or in part by such benefitted Lender in good faith settlement of a pending or threatened avoidance claim, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery or settlement payment, but without interest. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from a Lender pursuant to this Section 11.3 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all of its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Person were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

11.4 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans and the issuance of the Letters of Credit and the execution and delivery to the Lenders of this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect until the Facility Termination Date, subject to Section 11.8.

11.5 Expenses. The Borrower agrees to pay on demand all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with the syndication, preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, and amendment of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and the other documents to be delivered hereunder, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent with respect thereto and with respect to advising the Administrative Agent as to its rights and responsibilities under the Loan Documents. The Borrower further agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and, during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Lenders, if any (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses), in connection with the enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of the Loan Documents and the other documents to be delivered hereunder.

11.6 Amendments and Waivers. Any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended or waived if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed (or consented to in writing) by the Borrower or other applicable Loan Party party to such Loan Document and (except as provided in clauses (a) and (b) below) either the Required Lenders or (as to Loan Documents other than this Agreement) the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders (and, if Article X hereof or the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent are affected thereby, by the Administrative Agent); provided that

(a) no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by each Lender directly affected thereby, (i) (except as provided in Section 2.18) increase the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender or the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, (ii) reduce (x) the principal of or rate of interest on any Revolving Credit Loan, Term Loan or Competitive Bid Loan made by such Lender, (y) the amounts of any Reimbursement Obligations owed to such Lender hereunder or (z) any fees payable to such Lender hereunder, except that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” hereunder or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate, (iii) postpone any date scheduled for the payment of principal, interest or fees payable to such Lender hereunder or for termination of any Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender, (iv) adversely change any pro rata provisions of Section 2.9 or (v) reduce the specified percentage amount below 50% in the definition of Required Lenders or the percentage of the Revolving Credit Commitments or outstanding Loans held by any Lender, as applicable, which shall be required for the Lenders or

any of them to take any action under this Section 11.6(a); and provided, further, that no such amendment or waiver that affects the rights, privileges or obligations of JPMorgan Chase Bank as provider of Swing Line Loans, shall be effective unless signed in writing by JPMorgan Chase Bank or that affects the rights, privileges or obligations of any Issuing Bank as issuer of Letters of Credit, shall be effective unless signed in writing by such Issuing Bank; and

(b) no such amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by each Lender directly affected thereby, release any Guarantor (unless such Person is simultaneously released from its Senior Note Guaranty and Year 2006 Senior Note Guaranty), subordinate any Facility Guaranty of any Guarantor (unless the Senior Note Guaranty and Year 2006 Senior Note Guaranty of such Person is subordinated or substantially the same terms), release all or substantially all of the Guarantors, or subordinate all or substantially all of the Facility Guaranties, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or as contemplated in the applicable Loan Documents.

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with only the written consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld), the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) (but not any other Lender) to permit the refinancing, replacement or modification of all outstanding Term Loans (“Replaced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder (“Replacement Term Loans”), provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Replaced Term Loans, (b) the weighted average Applicable Margin for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the weighted average Applicable Margin for such Replaced Term Loans and (c) the weighted average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Replaced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing.

Any such waiver and any such amendment or modification pursuant to this Section 11.6 shall be binding upon the Borrower, the Guarantors, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and all future holders of the Loans. Except as otherwise set forth in such waiver, any Default or Event of Default that is waived pursuant to this Section 11.6 shall not be deemed to be a Default or Event of Default during the period of such waiver.

No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. No delay or omission on any Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s part in exercising any right, remedy or option shall operate as a waiver of such or any other right, remedy or option or of any Default or Event of Default.

11.7 Counterparts; Facsimile Signatures. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, and it shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such fully-executed counterpart. Signatures on communications and other documents may be transmitted by facsimile only with the consent of the Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion in each instance. The effectiveness of any such signatures accepted by the Administrative Agent shall, subject to applicable law, have the same force and effect as manual signatures and shall be binding on all parties. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such signature be confirmed by a manually-signed hard copy thereof. Each party hereto hereby adopts as an original executed signature page each signature page hereafter furnished by such party to the Administrative Agent (or an agent of the Administrative Agent) bearing (with the consent of the Administrative Agent) a facsimile signature by or on behalf of such party. Nothing contained in this Section shall limit the provisions of Section 10.4.

11.8 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the Facility Termination Date, except that (x) those provisions which by the express terms thereof continue in effect notwithstanding the Facility Termination Date, and (y) obligations in the nature of continuing indemnities or expense reimbursement obligations not yet due and payable, shall continue in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if after receipt of any payment of all or any part of the Obligations, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender (including the Swing Line lender) is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment to any Person because such payment is determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, a diversion of trust funds or for any other reason or elects to repay any such amount in good faith settlement of a pending or threatened avoidance claim, (i) this Agreement (including the provisions pertaining to Participations in Letters of Credit, Reimbursement Obligations and Swing Line Loans) shall continue in full force (or be reinstated, as the case may be) and the Borrower shall be liable to, and shall indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender harmless for, the amount of such payment surrendered until the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender shall have been finally paid in full, and (ii) in the event any portion of any amount so required to be surrendered by the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line lender shall have been distributed to the Lenders, the Lenders shall promptly repay such amounts to the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank or the Swing Line lender on demand therefor. The provisions of the foregoing sentence shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Lenders in reliance upon such payment, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to the Administrative Agent’s, any Issuing Bank’s or the Lenders’ rights under this Agreement and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment having become final and irrevocable.

11.9 Indemnification; Limitation of Liability. (a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person and each Lender and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) that may be incurred by or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation, or proceeding or preparation of defense in connection therewith) the Loan Documents or the Fourth Amendment or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans or the Letters of Credit (all of the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability, cost, or expense resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 11.9 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party or any other Person or any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. The Borrower agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to it, any of its Subsidiaries, any Guarantor, or any security holders or creditors thereof arising out of, related to or in connection with the transactions contemplated herein, except to the extent that such liability resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Borrower agrees not to assert any claim against any Agent-Related Person, any Lender, any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys, agents, and advisers, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Loan Documents, any of the transactions contemplated herein or the Fourth Amendment or the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans.

(b) The agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 11.9 shall continue in effect notwithstanding the Facility Termination Date.

11.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be determined to be illegal or invalid as to one or more of the parties hereto, then such provision shall remain in effect with respect to all parties, if any, as to whom such provision is neither illegal nor invalid, and in any event all other provisions hereof shall remain effective and binding on the parties hereto.

11.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, constitutes the entire agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous proposals, negotiations, representations, commitments and other communications between or among the parties, both oral and written, with respect thereto (except that those provisions (if any) which by the express terms of (i) the commitment letter dated as of June 6, 2005, executed by JPMorgan Chase Bank, X.X. Xxxxxx Securities Inc., Bank of America, N.A. and Banc of America Securities LLC and accepted by the Borrower, (ii) the commitment letter, dated as of March 6, 2006, executed by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and X.X. Xxxxxx Securities Inc. and accepted by the Borrower, (iii) the engagement letter, dated as of March 31, 2010, executed by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and X.X. Xxxxxx Securities Inc. and accepted by the Borrower, or (iv) the engagement letter, dated as of March 31, 2010, executed by Bank of America, N.A. and Banc of America Securities LLC and accepted by the Borrower, survive the closing of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Term Facility, the Letter of Credit Facility or the Fourth Amendment, as applicable, shall survive and continue in effect).

11.12 Agreement Controls. In the event that any term of any of the Loan Documents other than this Agreement conflicts with any express term of this Agreement, the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall control to the extent of such conflict.

11.13 Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged hereunder, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate (as such term is defined below). If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate (as defined below), 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, the Borrower shall pay to the 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 the Lenders and the Borrower 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 the Borrower. As used in this paragraph, the term “Highest Lawful Rate” means the maximum lawful interest rate, if any, that at any time or from time to time may be contracted for, charged, or received under the laws applicable to such Lender which are presently in effect or, to the extent allowed by law, under such applicable laws which may hereafter be in effect and which allow a higher maximum nonusurious interest rate than applicable laws now allow.

11.14 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
