(d) If since the beginning of the Test Period, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) shall have made an Investment in any Restricted Subsidiary (or any Person which becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) or an acquisition of assets which constitutes all or substantially all of an operating unit of a business, Consolidated Operating Cash Flow for the Test Period shall be increased by an amount equal to the Consolidated Operating Cash Flow (if positive) directly attributable to such Investment, Restricted Subsidiary or assets which are the subject of such transaction for the Test Period or decreased by an amount equal to the Consolidated Operating Cash Flow (if negative) directly attributable thereto for the Test Period; and

(e) If since the beginning of the Test Period any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such Test Period) shall have made any disposition, any Investment or acquisition of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (c) or (d) above if made by the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary during the Test Period, Consolidated Operating Cash Flow for the Test Period shall be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such disposition, Investment or acquisition had occurred on the first day of the Test Period.

For all purposes of this Agreement, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to an acquisition of assets, the amount of income or earnings relating thereto and the amount of Consolidated Interest Expense associated with any Indebtedness Incurred in connection therewith, the pro forma calculations relating thereto shall be determined in accordance with GAAP in good faith by a Financial Officer of the Borrower. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Swap Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness if such Swap Agreement has a remaining term in excess of 12 months). If any Indebtedness is Incurred under a revolving credit facility and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated based on the average daily balance of such Indebtedness for the four fiscal quarters subject to the pro forma calculation to the extent such Indebtedness was Incurred solely for working capital purposes.

SECTION 1.04 Terms Generally. The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include,” “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall.” Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented, restated, amended and restated, extended or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder,” and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement, (e) any reference herein to any Requirement of Law shall include all statutory and regulatory provisions consolidating, amending, replacing, supplementing or interpreting such Requirement of Law and (f) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights. The foregoing standards shall also apply to the other Credit Documents.

SECTION 1.05 Accounting Terms; GAAP. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided that for purposes of any determinations associated with leases, including, without limitation, determinations of whether such leases are capital leases, whether obligations under such leases are Capital Lease Obligations, the amount of any Capital Lease Obligations associated with such leases, and the amount of operating expenses associated with such leases, Consolidated Operating Cash Flow, Indebtedness, Senior Secured Leverage Ratio and the Total Leverage Ratio shall be determined based on generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America in effect on the Closing Date; provided further that, if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the Closing Date in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose),

ARTICLE II

The Credits

SECTION 2.01 Revolving Commitments.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make to the Borrower revolving credit loans denominated in Dollars (“Revolving Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount that will not result at the time of such Borrowing in the amount of such Lender’s Outstanding Revolving Credit under the Revolving Commitments exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment. During the Revolving Commitment Period, the Borrower may use the Revolving Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The Revolving Loans may from time to time be Eurocurrency Loans or ABR Loans, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.03 and 2.05.

Each Revolving Loan under the Revolving Commitments shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Revolving Loans made by the Revolving Lenders thereunder ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments. The failure of any Revolving Lender to make any Revolving Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Revolving Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders are several and no Revolving Lender shall be responsible for any other Revolving Lender’s failure to make Revolving Loans as required.

At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. At the time that each ABR Revolving Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000; provided that an ABR Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Total Revolving Commitments. Borrowings of more than one Type and Class may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of ten (10) Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowings outstanding (which number shall be increased by at least 3 for each Class of Extended Revolving Commitments created after the Closing Date).

SECTION 2.02 Incremental Revolving Commitments and Incremental Term Loans.

(a) The Borrower and one or more Lenders (including New Lenders subject to clause (d) below) may from time to time agree that such Lenders shall Incur Incremental Revolving Commitments (which shall have the effect of increasing the amount of the existing Revolving Commitments) by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Revolving Commitment Activation Notice specifying (x) the amount of the Incremental Revolving Commitments and (y) the applicable Incremental Revolving Commitment Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

(i) the aggregate amount of (A) the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Commitments (after giving pro forma effect thereto and the use of the proceeds thereof) Incurred pursuant to this Section 2.02 plus (B) the aggregate principal amount of Permitted Additional Debt Incurred under Section 6.01(p)(ii) shall not exceed, as of the date of Incurrence the Incremental Limit; provided that Incremental Term Loans may be Incurred without regard to the Incremental Limit (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) to the extent that the Net Cash Proceeds from such Incremental Term Loans are used on the date of incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans (or substantially concurrently therewith) to prepay any other outstanding Incremental Term Loans;

-36-

(ii) no Incremental Revolving Commitments may be Incurred if a Default or Event of Default would be in existence immediately before or after giving pro forma effect thereto and to any concurrent transactions and any substantially concurrent use of the proceeds thereof,

(iii) any Incremental Revolving Commitment shall be on the same terms, pursuant to the same documentation, and treated the same as the existing Revolving Facility (including with respect to maturity date thereof) and shall be considered to be part of the Revolving Facility (it being understood that, if required to consummate an Incremental Revolving Commitment, (x) the Applicable Rates and Commitment Fee Rates on the existing Revolving Facility may be increased and additional upfront or similar fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Commitment and (y) any Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant may be added without any consent of any Person so long as the Administrative Agent shall have been given prompt written notice thereof and this Agreement is amended to include such Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant for the benefit of the entire Revolving Facility);

(iv) unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, (A) each increase effected pursuant to this paragraph shall be in a minimum amount of at least $100,000,000 and (B) no more than four (4) Incremental Revolving Commitment Activation Notices may be delivered by the Borrower after the Closing Date; and

(v) no existing Lender shall have any obligation to incur any Incremental Revolving Commitments unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion and the Borrower shall not be obligated to offer any existing Lender the opportunity to provide any Incremental Revolving Commitment.

(b) The Borrower and any one or more Lenders (including New Lenders subject to clause (d) below) may from time to time agree that such Lenders shall make Incremental Term Loans by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Facility Activation Notice specifying (A) the principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans, (B) the applicable Incremental Term Facility Closing Date, (C) the applicable Incremental Term Maturity Date; provided that no more than $250,000,000 of Incremental Term Loans may have a final maturity date prior to the Latest Maturity Date, (D) the amortization schedule for such Incremental Term Loans, which shall comply with Section 2.07(a), (E) the Applicable Rate and any rate floors for such Incremental Term Loans, (F) the proposed original issue or other funding discounts, upfront fees or other fees, (G) any Borrower and Borrower affiliate loan purchase provisions and (H) the prepayment terms (which may include customary excess cash flow sweeps, prepayments with the Net Available Cash of dispositions, issuances of Capital Stock or Incurrences of Indebtedness) and premiums, if any, applicable to such Incremental Term Loans, and the manner in which prepayments of such Incremental Term Loans shall be applied to the installments thereof and as between Classes of Incremental Term Loans). Notwithstanding the foregoing,

(i) the aggregate amount of (A) the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Commitments (after giving pro forma effect thereto and the use of the proceeds thereof) Incurred pursuant to this Section 2.02 plus (B) the aggregate principal amount of Permitted Additional Debt Incurred under Section 6.01(p)(ii) shall not exceed, as of the date of Incurrence the Incremental Limit; provided that Incremental Term Loans may be incurred without regard to the Incremental Limit (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) to the extent that the Net Cash Proceeds from such Incremental Term Loans are used on the date of incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans (or substantially concurrently therewith) to prepay any other outstanding Incremental Term Loans,

(ii) no Incremental Term Loans may be incurred if a Default or Event of Default would be in existence immediately before or after giving pro forma effect thereto and to any concurrent transactions and any substantially concurrent use of the proceeds thereof;

(iii) Incremental Term Loans may otherwise have terms and conditions different from those of the Revolving Facility; provided that (x) except with respect to matters contemplated by clauses (A)(subject to clause (i) above) through (H) above, any differences shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to the extent such differences are not consistent with the requirements of clause (b) of the definition of “Permitted Additional Debt”; provided that a certificate of a Financial Officer of the

-37-

Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent at least five Business Days prior to the incurrence, issuance or other obtaining of such Indebtedness, together with a reasonably detailed description of the material terms and conditions of such Indebtedness or drafts of the documentation relating thereto, stating that the Borrower has determined in good faith that such terms and conditions satisfy the foregoing requirement shall be conclusive evidence that such terms and conditions satisfy the foregoing requirement unless the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower within such five Business Day period that it disagrees with such determination (including a reasonable description of the basis upon which it disagrees);

(iv) unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, (A) no Class of Incremental Term Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount less than $100,000,000 and (B) no more than four (4) Classes of Incremental Term Loans may be outstanding under this Agreement at any time;

(v) no existing Lender shall have any obligation to make any Incremental Term Loans unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion and the Borrower shall not be obligated to offer any existing Lender the opportunity to provide any Incremental Term Loans; and

(vi) any Incremental Term Loan that is repaid may not be reborrowed.

(c) Each Incremental Revolving Commitment and/or Incremental Term Loan shall have the same guarantees as and be secured on an equal priority basis by the collateral securing the Revolving Facility and constitute “Obligations” pursuant to the existing Credit Documents.

(d) Any additional bank, financial institution or other Person that, with the consent of the Borrower, elects to become a “Lender” under this Agreement in connection with any transaction described in Section 2.02(a) or 2.02(b) shall execute a New Lender Supplement (each, a “New Lender Supplement”), substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1, whereupon such bank, financial institution or other Person (a “New Lender”) shall become a Lender for all purposes and to the same extent as if originally a party hereto and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Solely with respect to any Incremental Revolving Commitments, the Administrative Agent shall have consent rights (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) with respect to such New Lender, if such consent would be required under Section 9.05 for an assignment of Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, to such New Lender, and solely with respect to any Incremental Revolving Commitments, the Issuing Bank shall have consent rights (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) with respect to such New Lender, if such consent would be required under Section 9.05 for an assignment of Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, to such New Lender.

(e) With respect to Incremental Revolving Commitments, each Lender that is acquiring an Incremental Revolving Commitment on an Incremental Revolving Commitment Closing Date shall make a Revolving Loan, the proceeds of which will be used to prepay the Revolving Loans of the Revolving Lenders (other than such Lender and the other Lenders acquiring an Incremental Revolving Commitment) outstanding immediately prior to such Incremental Revolving Commitment Closing Date, so that, after giving effect thereto, each Revolving Lender (including each Lender that is acquiring an Incremental Revolving Commitment) holds its Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Loans outstanding after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Commitment on such Incremental Revolving Commitment Closing Date. If there is a new Revolving Borrowing on such Incremental Revolving Commitment Closing Date, the Revolving Lenders after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Commitments shall make such Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.01.

SECTION 2.03 Procedure for Revolving Loan Borrowing.

(a) To request a Revolving Borrowing on any Business Day, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, in the case of ABR Loans, and 1:00 p.m. New York City time, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans (x) not less than three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, or (y) on the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of ABR Loans). Each such telephonic borrowing request shall be confirmed promptly in writing. Each such telephonic and written borrowing request shall specify the amount, Facility and Type of Borrowing to be borrowed and the requested Borrowing Date. Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Revolving Lender thereof.

-38-

(b) If no election as to the Type of Revolving Borrowing is specified, then the requested Revolving Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Revolving Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

SECTION 2.04 Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 2:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City or to any other account as shall have been designated by the Borrower in writing to the Administrative Agent in the applicable borrowing request.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.05 Interest Elections.

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable borrowing request and each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in the such borrowing request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert any Borrowing of any Class to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as the same Type and may elect successive Interest Periods for any Eurocurrency Borrowing, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different Types or Interest Periods, as applicable, with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the relevant Lenders holding the Loans comprising the relevant portion of such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a request for a Revolving Borrowing would be required under Section 2.03, if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be confirmed promptly in writing.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing), (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day, (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing, and (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period.” If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each relevant Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

-39-

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be continued as such for an Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.06 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction of Revolving Commitments shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Outstanding Revolving Credits would exceed the Total Revolving Commitments. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Commitments then in effect; provided that any such termination or reduction shall apply proportionately and permanently to reduce the Revolving Commitments of each of the Lenders within each Class of Revolving Commitments, except that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) the Borrower may allocate any termination or reduction of Revolving Commitments among Classes of Revolving Commitments at its direction (including, for the avoidance of doubt, to the Revolving Commitments with respect to any Class of Extended Revolving Commitments without any termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments with respect to any Existing Revolving Commitments of the same Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class) and (2) in connection with the establishment on any date of any Extended Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.19, the Existing Revolving Commitments of any one or more Lenders providing any such Extended Revolving Commitments on such date shall be reduced in an amount equal to the amount of Specified Existing Revolving Commitments so extended on such date (or, if agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Extended Revolving Commitments, by any greater amount so long as the Borrower prepays the Loans under the Existing Revolving Commitments of such Class owed to such Lenders providing such Extended Revolving Commitments to the extent necessary to ensure that, after giving effect to such repayment or reduction, the Loans under the Existing Revolving Commitments of such Class are held by the Lenders of such Class on a pro rata basis in accordance with their Existing Revolving Commitments of such Class after giving effect to such reduction) (provided that (x) after giving effect to any such reduction and to the repayment of any Loans made on such date, the aggregate amount of the revolving credit exposure of any such Lender does not exceed the Existing Revolving Commitment thereof (such revolving credit exposure and Revolving Commitment being determined in each case, for the avoidance of doubt, exclusive of such Lender’s Extended Revolving Commitment and any exposure in respect thereof) and (y) for the avoidance of doubt, any such repayment of Loans contemplated by the preceding clause shall be made in compliance with the requirements of Section 2.15 with respect to the ratable allocation of payments hereunder, with such allocation being determined after giving effect to any conversion pursuant to Section 2.19 of Existing Revolving Commitments and Loans under such Existing Revolving Loans into Extended Revolving Commitments and Loans under such Extended Revolving Loans respectively, and prior to any reduction being made to the Revolving Commitment of any other Lender).

SECTION 2.07 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Incremental Term Loans of each Incremental Term Lender shall mature in one or more installments as specified in the Incremental Term Facility Activation Notice pursuant to which such Incremental Term Loans were made, provided that, except in the case of the final installment, such installments shall be no more frequent than quarterly.

(b) The Borrower shall repay the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Revolving Termination Date.

(c) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

-40-

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the relevant Lenders and each relevant Lender’s share thereof.

(e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.08 Prepayments.

(a) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon notice delivered to the Administrative Agent no later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, not less than three Business Days prior thereto, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, and no later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of such notice, in the case of ABR Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of prepayment and the Loans to be prepaid; provided that, if a Eurocurrency Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.13. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. Partial prepayments of Loans under the Revolving Facility shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 (or if less, the remaining outstanding principal amount thereof).

(b) If at any time for any reason the sum of the Outstanding Revolving Credit exceeds the Total Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall upon learning thereof, or upon the request of the Administrative Agent, immediately prepay the Revolving Loans in an aggregate principal amount at least equal to the amount of such excess.

(c) Not later than five Business Days following the receipt of any Net Available Cash of any Asset Disposition, Sale/Leaseback Transaction pursuant to Section 6.08(b) or Casualty Event by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, the Borrower shall prepay any outstanding Revolving Loans (without any corresponding permanent reduction in the Revolving Commitments) in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Available Cash less the aggregate amount of such Net Available Cash that is, or is required to be, applied to the prepayment, redemption, repurchase or defeasance of any Senior Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including any Incremental Term Loans); provided that:

(i) the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be required to apply any Net Available Cash in accordance with this Section 2.08(c) except to the extent that the aggregate Net Available Cash received by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries which is not otherwise applied in accordance with this Section 2.08(c) exceeds $50,000,000, and

(ii) such proceeds shall not be required to be so applied on such date to the extent that the Borrower shall have delivered a certificate of a Financial Officer to the Administrative Agent on or prior to such date stating that such Net Available Cash is expected to be reinvested in the business of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries within 12 months following the date of receipt of such Net Available Cash; provided that if all or any portion of such Net Available Cash is not so reinvested within such 12-month period, such period may be extended for an additional 180 days if such Net Available Cash has been committed to be reinvested within such 12-month period and is so reinvested within such additional 180-day period; provided that if all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds is not so reinvested within such additional 180-day period, such unused portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as a mandatory prepayment as provided in this Section 2.08(c) or to the prepayment, redemption, repurchase or defeasance of any Senior Indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including any Incremental Term Loans).

-41-

SECTION 2.09 Fees.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee for the period from and including the Closing Date to the last day of the Revolving Commitment Period, computed at the applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on each Revolving Fee Payment Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Revolving Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.125% per annum (or such other percentage as may be separately agreed between the Borrower and any Issuing Bank) on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure of the Letters of Credit issued by it (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any such LC Exposure, as well as the fees agreed by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees will be payable quarterly in arrears on each Revolving Fee Payment Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date; provided that any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365/366 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates as set forth in any fee agreements with the Administrative Agent and to perform any other obligations contained therein.

(d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, in the case of commitment fees, to the Revolving Lenders. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

(b) The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in addition, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Commitment Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.11 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Eurocurrency Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurocurrency Borrowing shall be ineffective and the Loans shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing and (ii) if any borrowing request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing.

SECTION 2.12 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (including any reserve for eurocurrency funding that may be established or reestablished under Regulation D of the Board);

(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender; or

(iii) subject any Lender to any Tax (except for Excluded Taxes, or Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes indemnifiable under Section 2.14) on or in respect of its loans, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender

-43-

for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered, it being understood and agreed, however, that a Lender shall not be entitled to such compensation as a result of such Lender’s compliance with any Requirement of Law, or pursuant to any request, rule, guideline or directive to comply with, any Requirement of Law unless such Lender is imposing such charges on or requesting such compensation from other borrowers in the U.S. sub-investment grade loan market with respect to its similarly affected commitments, loans and/or participations under agreements with such borrowers having provisions similar to this Section 2.12(a).

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered, it being understood and agreed, however, that a Lender shall not be entitled to such compensation as a result of such Lender’s compliance with any Requirement of Law, or pursuant to any request, rule, guideline or directive to comply with, any Requirement of Law unless such Lender is imposing such charges on or requesting such compensation from other borrowers in the U.S. sub-investment grade loan market with respect to its similarly affected commitments, loans and/or participations under agreements with such borrowers having provisions similar to this Section 2.12(b).

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.13 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurocurrency Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to be an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurocurrency market (but not less than the available LIBO rate quoted for the LIBO interest period equal to the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period, or if there is no such LIBO interest period, the lower of the LIBO rates quoted for the closest LIBO interest periods that are longer and shorter than such period). A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

-44-

SECTION 2.14 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law; provided that if any Loan Party or any other applicable withholding agent shall be required to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) if the Tax in question is an Indemnified Tax or an Other Tax, the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, after all required deductions have been made (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14), the Administrative Agent or Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable withholding agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Loan Parties shall, jointly and severally, indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes imposed on or in respect of any payment by or on account of any Loan Party under any Loan Document, and any Other Taxes, paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.14), and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (excluding penalties attributable to gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) (as applicable)), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall be entitled to contest with the relevant Governmental Authority, pursuant to applicable law and at its own expense, any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes that it is ultimately obligated to pay, and the Administrative Agent or Lender shall reasonably cooperate with any such contest, unless the Administrative Agent or such Lender determines in good faith that such cooperation would prejudice its legal or commercial position in any material respect. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall give prompt notice of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on it, provided, however, that the Administrative Agent or such Lender’s failure to give such prompt notice to the Borrower shall not constitute a defense to any claim for indemnification by the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender unless, and only to the extent that, such failure materially prejudices the Borrower.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of any Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.14, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a copy, or if reasonably available to the Borrower a certified copy, of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with such other documentation prescribed by laws or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any such documentation (including any specific documentation referred to below in this Section 2.14(e)) obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its inability to do so.

-45-

Without limiting the foregoing:

(1) Each U.S. Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding.

(2) Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) two properly completed and duly signed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, and such other related documentation (if any) as required under the Code,

(B) two properly completed and duly signed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms),

(C) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code, (A) two properly completed and duly signed certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit K (any such certificate, a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (B) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms),

(D) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender that has transferred its beneficial ownership to a participant), two properly completed and duly signed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms), accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, a United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY and/or any other required information (or any successor forms) from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 2.14(e) if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the applicable United States Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Foreign Lender on behalf of such direct or indirect partners), or

(E) two properly completed and duly signed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable U.S. federal income tax laws (including the Treasury Regulations) as a basis for claiming a complete exemption from, or a reduction in, United States federal withholding Tax on any payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents.

(3) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by any Requirements of Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph (3), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date.

-46-

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.14(e), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(f) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14, it shall pay over such refund to the relevant Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority (but excluding any penalties attributable to gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) (as applicable)) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall pursue any such refund of which it becomes aware if the Administrative Agent or such Lender reasonably determines that it is likely to receive such refund, unless such Administrative Agent or Lender determines in good faith that the pursuit of such refund would prejudice its legal or commercial position in any material respect. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 2.14, include any Issuing Bank.

SECTION 2.15 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Each borrowing of Revolving Loans by the Borrower from the Revolving Lenders and, except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, including in Section 2.06, any reduction of the Revolving Commitments of the Revolving Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Revolving Commitments then held by the Revolving Lenders. Each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee or any letter of credit fee shall be paid ratably to the Revolving Lenders entitled thereto.

(b) Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, each prepayment by the Borrower on account of principal of the Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders. All repayments of principal of the Revolving Loans at stated maturity or upon acceleration shall be allocated pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the matured or accelerated Revolving Loans then held by the relevant Revolving Lenders. All payments of interest in respect of the Revolving Loans shall be allocated pro rata according to the outstanding interest payable then owed to the relevant Revolving Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) any amount payable to a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise but excluding any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.16 and Section 9.04) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated interest-bearing account and, subject to any applicable Requirements of Law, be applied, subject to the provisions of clause (B) below, at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent: (1) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank hereunder (including amounts owed under Section 2.09(b) or 9.04(c)), (2) second, to the funding of any Revolving Loan or LC Disbursement required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent, (3) third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and Borrower, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (4) fourth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower or the Lenders as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement and (5) fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction, and (B) if such payment is a prepayment of the principal amount of Revolving Loans, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Revolving Loans of all non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata (based on the amounts owing to each) prior to being applied in the manner set forth in clause (A) above.

-47-

(c) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m., New York City time, may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest and fees thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx Xx., Ops 0, 0xx Xxxxx Xxxxxx, XX 00000 except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.04 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the relevant Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(d) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (subject to the rights of the Administrative Agent to hold and apply amounts to be paid to a Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.15(b)) (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

(e) Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, if any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender entitled thereto, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders entitled thereto to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by such Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower or any other Credit Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans, Revolving Commitments or participations in any LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant. or (z) any disproportionate payment obtained by a Lender of any Class as a result of the extension by Lenders of the maturity date or expiration date of some but not all Loans or Revolving Commitments of that Class or any increase in the Applicable Rate (or other pricing term, including any fee, discount or premium) in respect of Loans or Revolving Commitments of Lenders that have consented to any such extension to the extent such transaction is permitted hereunder.

SECTION 2.16 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12 or 2.14, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.05), all its interests, rights and obligations under this

-48-

Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in unreimbursed LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.12 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(c) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 9.02 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender to assign its Loans, and its Revolving Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, provided that: (a) all amounts owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced (other than principal and interest) shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, and (b) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In connection with any such assignment the Borrower, Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.05.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each party hereto agrees that any assignment pursuant to the terms of Section 2.16(c) may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender making such assignment need not be a party thereto.

SECTION 2.17 Letters of Credit.

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request that standby letters of credit denominated in Dollars be issued under this Agreement for its own account or the account of any Restricted Subsidiary at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, but in any event no later than two Business Days prior to such date, unless otherwise agreed by the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be reasonably necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $75,000,000 and (ii) the amount of the total Outstanding Revolving Credits shall not exceed the Total Revolving Commitments.

(c) Expiration Date. (i) Subject to clause (ii) below, each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (A) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (B) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date (such earlier date, the “LC Maturity Date”).

-49-

(ii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit notice, the Issuing Bank may agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”) so long as any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit permits the Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the LC Maturity Date; provided, however, that the Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.17(b) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is two Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.02 are not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement (i) not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives written notice from the Issuing Bank that an LC Disbursement has been made, if the Borrower shall have received such written notice prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day on which such LC Disbursement was made, or (ii) if such written notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice (such required date for reimbursement under clause (i) or (ii), as applicable, the “Required Reimbursement Date”); provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Revolving Commitment Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.04 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.04 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to such payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to

-50-

this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed in writing) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full by the Required Reimbursement Date , the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the Required Reimbursement Date to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum set forth in Section 2.10(c)(ii). Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.09(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement,

-51-

(i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such successor and any previous Issuing Bank, or such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect to the Revolving Facility. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect to the Revolving Facility. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived or are no longer continuing.

SECTION 2.18 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) Fees shall cease to accrue on the Available Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.09(a).

(b) The Revolving Commitment and Outstanding Revolving Credit of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02 or Section 9.03); provided that this Section 2.18(b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification effecting (i) an increase or extension of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment or (ii) the reduction or excuse of principal amount of, or interest or fees payable on, such Defaulting Lender’s Loans or the postponement of the scheduled date of payment of such principal amount, interest or fees to such Defaulting Lender.

(i) Such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages (but excluding the Revolving Commitments of all the Defaulting Lenders from both the numerator and the denominator) but only to the extent (x) the sum of all the Outstanding Revolving Credits owed to all non-Defaulting Lenders does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Available Revolving Commitments, (y) the representations and warranties of each Credit Party set forth in the Credit Documents to which it is a party are true and correct at such time, except

-52-

to the extent that any such representation and warranty relates to an earlier date (in which case such representation and warranty shall be true and correct as of such earlier date), and (z) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time;

(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, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Bank such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) for so long as any Letters of Credit are outstanding;

(iii) If the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.09(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized by the Borrower;

(iv) If LC Exposures of the non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 2.09(a) and Section 2.09(b) shall be adjusted to reflect such non-Defaulting Lenders’ LC Exposure as reallocated; and

(v) If any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.09(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated.

(d) So long as such Defaulting Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is reasonably satisfied that the related LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Available Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.18(c)(ii), and the LC Exposure in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.18(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement are in addition to other rights and remedies that Borrower may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any funding default and that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any funding default. In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Issuing Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Total Revolving Loans shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Available Revolving Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause such outstanding Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Revolving Lenders (including such Lender) in accordance with their applicable percentages, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a non-Defaulting Lender and any applicable cash collateral shall be promptly returned to the Borrower and any LC Exposure of such Lender reallocated pursuant to the requirements above shall be reallocated back to such Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.19 Extensions of Incremental Term Loans and Revolving Commitments.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Incremental Term Loans of any Class (an “Existing Incremental Term Loan Class”) or all or a portion of the Revolving Commitments of any Class (an “Existing Revolving Commitment Class”) be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans (any such Incremental Term Loans which have been so converted, “Extended Incremental Term Loans”) or all or a portion of any such Revolving Commitments (any such Revolving Commitments which have been so converted, “Extended Revolving Commitments” and any loans made pursuant to such Extended Revolving Commitments, “Extended Revolving Loans”), and to provide for other terms applicable to such Extended Incremental Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, consistent with this Section 2.19 (any such conversion, an “Extension”). In order to establish any Extended Incremental Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Incremental Term Loan Class (the “Specified Existing Incremental Term Loan Class”) or Existing Revolving Commitment Class (the “Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class”), as applicable) (each, an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Incremental Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, to be established so long as:

(i) in the case of any Extended Revolving Commitments, the terms thereof shall be substantially similar to those applicable to the Specified Existing Revolving Commitments from which such commitments were converted except that (w) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Extended Revolving Commitments may be delayed to later dates than the final maturity dates of the Existing Revolving Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class, (x)(A) the interest rates, interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts and prepayment premiums with respect to the Extended Revolving Commitments may be different than those for the Existing Revolving Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class and/or (B) additional fees and/or premiums may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Revolving Commitments in addition to or in lieu of any of the items contemplated by the preceding clause (A) and (y)(1) the undrawn revolving credit commitment fee rate with respect to the Extended Revolving Commitments may be different than those for the Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class and (2) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply to any period after the Latest Maturity Date; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.19 or otherwise, (I) the borrowing and repayment (other than in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of the Loans under any Class of Extended Revolving Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with any borrowings and repayments of the Loans under any Existing Revolving Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class (the mechanics for which may be implemented through the applicable Extension Amendment and may include technical changes related to the borrowing and repayment procedures of the Specified Existing Revolving Commitment Class), (II) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments and related Loans shall be governed by the assignment and participation provisions set forth in Section 9.05 and (III) subject to the applicable limitations set forth in Section 2.06, permanent repayments of Loans under Extended Revolving Commitments (and corresponding permanent reduction in the related Extended Revolving Commitments) shall be permitted as may be agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders thereof;

(ii) in the case of any proposed Extended Incremental Term Loans, the terms thereof shall be substantially similar to the Incremental Term Loans of the Specified Existing Incremental Term Loan Class from which they are to be converted, except that (w) the scheduled final maturity date shall be extended and all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of all or a portion of any principal amount of such Extended Incremental Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization of principal of the Incremental Term Loans of such Specified Existing Incremental Term Loan Class (with any such delay resulting in a corresponding adjustment to the scheduled amortization payments reflected in the applicable Incremental Term Facility Activation Notice or in the Extension Amendment, as the case may be, with respect to the Specified Existing Incremental Term Loan Class, in each case as more particularly set forth in Section 2.19(c) below), (x)(A) the interest rates (including through fixed interest rates), interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts and prepayment premiums

-54-

with respect to the Extended Incremental Term Loans may be different than those for the Incremental Term Loans of such Specified Existing Incremental Term Loan Class and/or (B) additional fees and/or premiums may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Incremental Term Loans in addition to any of the items contemplated by the preceding clause (A), in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, (y) subject to the provisions set forth in any Incremental Term Facility Activation Notice, the Extended Incremental Term Loans may have optional prepayment terms (including call protection and prepayment terms and premiums) and mandatory prepayment terms as may be agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders thereof (provided that such Extended Incremental Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not a greater than a pro rata basis) in any mandatory prepayments (other than in connection with debt prepayments) hereunder, as specified in the respective Extension Request) and (z) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply to any period after the Latest Maturity Date;

Any Extended Incremental Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, converted pursuant to any Extension Request shall be designated a Class of Extended Incremental Term Loans or a Class of Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Incremental Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments converted may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Class of Extended Incremental Term Loans or Class of Extended Revolving Commitments, as the case may be.

(b) The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request to all Lenders of such Class that is subject to the Extension Request at least seven (7) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior to the date on which Lenders under such Class being converted are requested to respond. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitments of such Class converted into Extended Incremental Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender wishing to have all or a portion of its Incremental Term Loans under such Class converted into Extended Incremental Term Loans (any such Lender, an “Extending Incremental Term Lender”) or all or a portion of its Revolving Commitments under such Class converted into Extended Revolving Commitments (any such Lender, an “Extending Revolving Lender”), as the case may be, shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Incremental Term Loans of such Class or Revolving Commitments of such Class, as applicable, which it has elected to request be converted into Extended Incremental Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable (subject to any minimum denomination requirements reasonably imposed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower). In the event that the aggregate amount of Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, under such Class being converted exceeds the amount of Extended Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, requested pursuant to the Extension Request, Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to Extended Incremental Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, on a pro rata basis (subject to rounding requirements as may be established by the Administrative Agent) based on the amount of Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, included in each such Extension Election.

(c) Extended Incremental Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement (and, as appropriate, the other Credit Documents) among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Extending Incremental Term Lender or Extending Revolving Lender, as the case may be, providing an Extended Incremental Term Loan or Extended Revolving Commitment, as applicable, thereunder which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in paragraph (a) above (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender) and which may effect such amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new Classes of Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable. Each Extension Amendment shall be binding on the Lenders, the Credit Parties and the other parties hereto. In addition, if so provided in such amendment and with the consent of the Issuing Bank, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Revolving Termination Date in respect of the Revolving Commitments of any Class shall be re-allocated from Lenders holding such Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests

-55-

in respect of such Extended Revolving Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly. In connection with any Extension Amendment, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent shall enter into such amendments to the Collateral Documents and any Customary Intercreditor Agreement as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent (which shall not require any consent from any Lender) in order to ensure that the Extended Incremental Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, are provided with the benefit of the applicable Collateral Documents or Subsidiary Guarantee, as applicable, and shall deliver such other documents, certificates and opinions of counsel in connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent. All Extended Incremental Term Loans, Extended Revolving Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents that are secured by Liens on the Collateral on an equal priority basis with the Liens on the Collateral securing all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, following the effectiveness of any Extension Amendment in connection with any Extension Request and the establishment of any Extended Incremental Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, pursuant thereto (any such Extended Incremental Term Loans, the “Specified Extended Incremental Term Loans” and any such Extended Revolving Commitments, the “Specified Extended Revolving Commitments”), any Lender holding an Incremental Term Loan of the Existing Incremental Term Loan Class or a Revolving Commitment of the Existing Revolving Commitment Class, as applicable, subject to such Extension Request may, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and the Borrower (and without the consent of any other Lender), at any time and from time to time, convert all or any portion of such Incremental Term Loan or Revolving Commitment, as applicable, into a Specified Extended Incremental Term Loan or Specified Extended Revolving Commitment, as the case may be, having the same terms as the Specified Extended Incremental Term Loans or Specified Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, on the date of such conversion and such Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, shall be deemed Specified Extended Incremental Term Loans or Specified Extended Revolving Commitments, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement on and after such date.

(e) In the event that the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion that the allocation of Extended Incremental Term Loans of a given Class or the Extended Revolving Commitments of a given Class, in each case to a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt and processing of an Extension Election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Extension Amendment, then the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such affected Lender may (and hereby are authorized to), in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (each, a “Corrective Extension Amendment”) within 15 days following the effective date of such Extension Amendment, as the case may be, which Corrective Extension Amendment shall (i) provide for the conversion and extension of Incremental Term Loans under the Existing Incremental Term Loan Class or Existing Revolving Commitments (and related revolving exposure), as the case may be, in such amount as is required to cause such Lender to hold Extended Incremental Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments (and related revolving credit exposure) of the applicable Class into which such other Incremental Term Loans or commitments were initially converted, as the case may be, in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation of the applicable Loans or commitments to which it was entitled under the terms of such Extension Amendment, in the absence of such error, (ii) be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such Lender may agree (including conditions of the type required to be satisfied for the effectiveness of an Extension Amendment described in Section 2.19(c)), and (iii) effect such other amendments of the type (with appropriate reference and nomenclature changes) described in the penultimate sentence of Section 2.19(c).

(f) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of this Agreement.

(g) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Incremental Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Request) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement to the contrary. This Section 2.19 shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.07, 2.08(a) or 9.02 to the contrary.

The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents are within the corporate or other organizational powers of the Loan Parties and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational and, if required, stockholder action. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party thereto and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each such Loan Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

SECTION 3.03 Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except (i) such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (ii) the filings referred to in Section 3.12 and (iii) such consents, approvals, registrations, filings or actions the failure to so receive would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (b) will not violate any material Requirement of Law or the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries, (c) will not violate or result in a default under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries, except to the extent that such violation or default would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of the Borrower or any of its Material Subsidiaries (other than Liens created by the Collateral Documents), except to the extent that such creation or imposition would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.04 Financial Position.

(a) The Borrower has heretofore furnished to the Administrative Agent its consolidated balance sheet and statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows as of and for (i) the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 reported on by KPMG LLP, independent public accountants, and (ii) the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012.

(b) As of the Closing Date, neither the Borrower nor any Restricted Subsidiary has any material Indebtedness (including Disqualified Stock), any material Guarantee obligations, contingent liabilities, off-balance sheet liabilities, partnership liabilities for taxes or unusual forward or long-term commitments that, in each case are not reflected or provided for in the financial statements referred to in clause (a) above.

(c) Since December 31, 2011, there has been no event, change, circumstance or occurrence that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(a) Each of the Borrower and its Material Subsidiaries has good title to or valid leasehold interests in, or other limited property rights in, all its real and personal property (other than Intellectual Property) material to its business, except for minor defects in title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties for their intended purposes or as, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Schedule 3.05(b) sets forth, as of the Closing Date, each Satellite.

(c) Schedule 3.05(c) sets forth, as of the Closing Date, for each Satellite the space station licenses for the launch or operation, as applicable, of such Satellite issued by the FCC to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary. As of the Closing Date, the space station licenses set forth on Schedule 3.05(c) with respect to any Satellite include all material licenses, approvals, orders and authorizations by the FCC or any other Governmental Authority that are required or necessary to launch or operate such Satellite. Each space station license set forth on Schedule 3.05(c) is in full force and effect, and the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have fulfilled and performed in all material respects all of their obligations with respect thereto and have full power and authority to operate thereunder, in each case except to the extent that any failure to be in full force and effect, to have fulfilled and performed or to have full power and authority would not reasonably be expected to result in an Material Adverse Effect.

-78-

portion of the Collateral purported to be covered thereby, subject to Liens permitted under Section 6.02, except to the extent that any such loss of perfection results directly from the failure of the Administrative Agent to maintain possession of certificated securities Collateral actually delivered to it and pledged under the Collateral Documents or to file Uniform Commercial Code amendments after required notices are provided by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and continuation statements;

(o) a Change in Control shall occur;

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of this Section), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower, take any or all of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Revolving Commitments, and thereupon the Revolving Commitments shall terminate immediately, (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable during the continuation of such event) by the Borrower, and thereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind (other than notice from the Administrative Agent), all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower and (iii) require all outstanding Letters of Credit to be cash collateralized in accordance with Section 2.17(j); and in case of any event described in clause (h) or (i) of this Section, the Revolving Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower.

SECTION 7.02 Cure Right.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VII, in the event that the Borrower reasonably expects to fail (or has failed) to comply with the requirements of Section 6.10 as of the end of any Test Period, at any time during the last fiscal quarter of such Test Period through and until the expiration of the 10th Business Day subsequent to the date the financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or Section 5.01(b) with respect to such fiscal quarter (the “Cure Deadline”), the Borrower (or any parent thereof) shall have the right to issue common stock or other Capital Stock reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent for cash or otherwise receive cash contributions to the capital of the Borrower (collectively, the “Cure Right”), and upon the receipt by the Borrower of the Net Cash Proceeds of such issuance or contribution (the “Cure Amount”) pursuant to the exercise by the Borrower of such Cure Right (provided such Cure Amount is received by the Borrower on or before the applicable Cure Deadline) compliance with Section 6.10 for such Test Period shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma adjustments:

(i) Consolidated Operating Cash Flow shall be increased with respect to such applicable fiscal quarter with respect to which such Cure Amount is received by the Borrower and any Test Period that includes such fiscal quarter, solely for the purpose of determining whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing as a result of a violation of Section 6.10 and not for any other purpose under this Agreement, by an amount equal to the Cure Amount and any prepayment of Indebtedness with the Cure Amount shall be disregarded for purposes of measuring the covenant set forth in Section 6.10 for such Test Period;

-79-

(ii) if, after giving effect to such increase in Consolidated Operating Cash Flow, the Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of Section 6.10, the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of Section 6.10 as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of the Section 6.10 that had occurred shall be deemed cured for purposes of this Agreement; and

(iii) Consolidated Total Debt with respect to any Test Period subsequent to the Test Period for which the Cure Amount is deemed applied that includes such fiscal quarter with respect to which such Cure Amount is received by the Borrower shall be decreased solely to the extent proceeds of the Cure Amount are applied to prepay any Indebtedness;

provided that the Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent in writing of the exercise of such Cure Right within five Business Days of the receipt of the Cure Amounts.

(b) Limitation on Exercise of Cure Right. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in each four fiscal-quarter period there shall be no more than two fiscal quarters with respect to which the Cure Right is exercised, (ii) there shall be no more than five exercises of Cure Right in the aggregate, (iii) the Cure Amount shall be no greater than the amount required for purposes of complying with Section 6.10 as of the end of the applicable fiscal quarter, (iv) all Cure Amounts shall be disregarded for purposes of determining the Applicable Rates, any baskets, with respect to the covenants contained in the Credit Documents or the Restricted Payments “buildup” and any other purpose other than determining compliance with Section 6.10, and (v) there shall be no pro forma reduction in Indebtedness (by netting or otherwise) with the proceeds of any Cure Amount for determining compliance with Section 6.10 for the fiscal quarter for which such Cure Amount is deemed applied.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent

SECTION 8.01 Appointment and Authorization. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and the other Credit Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

SECTION 8.02 Administrative Agent and Affiliates. The bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

SECTION 8.03 Action by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and the other Credit Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 or 9.03), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 or 9.03) or otherwise, in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document,

-80-

(ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or in any other Credit Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein or in any other Credit Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.04 Consultation with Experts. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

SECTION 8.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.06 Successor Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower. In addition, if the Administrative Agent becomes a Defaulting Lender under clause (d) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender”, then such Administrative Agent may be removed as the Administrative Agent at the reasonable request of the Borrower and the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower and subject to the approval of the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (h) or (i) shall have occurred and be continuing), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring (but not removed) Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in the United States of America, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.07 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Credit Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 8.08 Bookrunners; Syndication Agents; Senior Managing Agent; Manager. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, none of the Bookrunners, the Syndication Agents, the Senior Managing Agent or the Manager shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, except in its capacity, if applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank.

-81-

SECTION 8.09 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable Requirements of Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.14, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payment in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). 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. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 8.09. The agreements in this Section 8.09 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 8.09, include any Issuing Bank.

SECTION 9.02 Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall

(i) increase the Revolving Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender,

(ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (it being understood that (x) a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Article IV or waiver or amendment of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitute a reduction of principal and (y) any change to the definition of “Total Leverage Ratio” or in the component definitions thereof shall not constitute a reduction in the rate or fees and only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the “default rate” or to amend Section 2.10(c)),

(iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Revolving Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (other than as a result of waiving the conditions precedent set forth in Article IV or other than as a result of a waiver or amendment of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory prepayment, which shall not constitute an extension, reduction, waiver, excuse or postponement),

-83-

(iv) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender,

(v) increase the Total Leverage Ratio set forth in Section 9.15(b) or Section 9.15(c), without the written consent of each Lender, or

(vi) (A) waive any of the conditions in Section 4.02 in respect of any Borrowing of Revolving Loans or (B) amend or modify Section 6.10 (unless Section 6.10 applies to Incremental Term Loans, if any), without the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders (it being understood that if Section 6.10 does not apply to the Incremental Term Loans, if any, only the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders shall be required to (and only the Required Revolving Lenders shall have the ability to) waive, amend or modify the covenant set forth in Section 6.10 (including any defined terms as they relate thereto),

provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may jointly amend, modify or supplement this Agreement to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, so long as if the Required Lenders do not object to such amendment, modification or supplement within ten business days following receipt of notice thereof.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) (a) to incorporate any Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loans in accordance with the provisions hereof, or (b) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with the Incremental Term Loans, and the Revolving Loans, and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof; and in each case to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders.

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Revolving Commitments or Incremental Term Loans of any Class (“Refinanced Loans”) with replacement loans denominated in Dollars (“Replacement Loans”) hereunder; provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Loans, (b) the Applicable Rate with respect to such Replacement Loans (or similar interest rate spread applicable to such Replacement Loans) shall not be higher than the Applicable Rate for such Refinanced Loans (or similar interest rate spread applicable to such Refinanced Loans) immediately prior to such refinancing, (c) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Refinanced Loans at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the Refinanced Loans) and (d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Loans than those applicable to such Refinanced Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of any Class of Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.

(d) Without the consent of any Lender, the Administrative Agent may (in its or their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Credit Document) enter into any amendment or waiver of any Collateral Document or Customary Intercreditor Agreement contemplated by this Agreement to effect the provisions of this Agreement, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable Requirements of Law.

SECTION 9.03 Waivers; Amendments to Other Credit Documents.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power under the Subsidiary Guarantee, the Pledge Agreement, the Security Agreement or the HoldCo Pledge Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Subsidiary Guarantee, the Pledge Agreement, the Security Agreement and the HoldCo Pledge Agreement are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of the Subsidiary Guarantee, the Pledge Agreement, the Security Agreement or the HoldCo Pledge Agreement or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

(b) Subject to Section 9.02(d), none of the Subsidiary Guarantee, the Pledge Agreement, the Security Agreement, the HoldCo Pledge Agreement nor any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each affected Credit Party and the Required Lenders or by the affected Credit Party and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall release all or substantially all of the Collateral (except as provided in Section 9.15), release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors or change any of the provisions of this Section, in each case without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under the Subsidiary Guarantee, the Pledge Agreement, the Security Agreement or the HoldCo Pledge Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.04 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Xxxxxx Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arranger, in connection with syndication of the Facilities and the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof and (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, including the fees, charges and disbursements of one firm of counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, taken as a whole (and solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel to all such affected Persons, taken as a whole), and to the extent required, one firm of local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) and one firm of regulatory counsel in connection with the enforcement or protection of their rights in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, including their rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Environmental Liabilities) and related expenses (including the reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket fees, expenses, disbursements and other charges of one firm of counsel for all Indemnitees, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of any existence of such conflict and in connection with the investigating or defending any of the foregoing has retained its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected Indemnitee), and to the extent required, one firm or local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions)) and one firm of regulatory counsel of any such Indemnitee arising out of or relating to any action, claim, litigation, investigation or other proceeding (including any inquiry or investigation of the foregoing) (regardless of whether such Indemnitee is a party thereto or whether or not such action, claim, litigation or proceeding was brought by the Borrower, its equity holders, affiliates or creditors or any other third person), arising out of, or with respect to the Transactions or to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any such other documents or the use of the proceeds of the

-85-

Loans or Letters of Credit; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (i) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, one of its Affiliates or one of its or their respective Related Parties or (ii) arise from a material breach of this Agreement by such Indemnitee or its Affiliates as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable judgment. Each Indemnitee shall give prompt notice to the Borrower of any claim that may give rise to a claim against the Borrower hereunder and shall consult with the Borrower in the conduct of such Indemnitee’s legal defense of such claim; provided, however, than an Indemnitee’s failure to give such prompt notice to the Borrower or to seek such consultation with the Borrower shall not constitute a defense to any claim for indemnification by such Indemnitee unless, and only to the extent that, such failure materially prejudices the Borrower.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Total Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties shall not assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other party, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing in this Section 9.04(d) shall limit the Borrower’s indemnification obligations to the extent that such special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages are included in any claim by a third party unaffiliated with any Indemnitee with respect to which the applicable Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under Section 9.04(b).

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable within 10 days after written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.05 Successors and Assigns.

(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) except to the extent permitted by Section 6.03, 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. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of:

(A) the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for (a) with respect to Incremental Term Loans (if any) only, an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund, (b) in respect of the Revolving Facility only, an assignment to a Revolving Lender or (c) if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is continuing, any assignment;

(B) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment (a) of any Incremental Term Loan to an assignee that is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (b) with respect to the Revolving Facility, an assignment to a Revolving Lender;

(C) each Issuing Bank for any assignment (other than an assignment to a Revolving Lender) in respect of the Revolving Facility.

-86-

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Revolving 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 or, in the case of any Incremental Term Loan, $1,000,000, unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is continuing;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Revolving Commitments or Loans;

(C) 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 is hereby waived for any assignment to which JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or any of its Affiliates is a party); and

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

For the purposes of this Section 9.05(b), the term “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) of this Section, 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 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.04). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.05 shall be null and void.

(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 Revolving Commitments of, and principal and interest amounts of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent 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, with respect to its own Loans and Revolving Commitments only, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption with respect to a permitted assignment 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

-87-

(b) of this Section (unless waived), 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. 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 the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, sell participations to one or more banks, institutions 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 Revolving 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 and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent 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 and the other Credit Documents. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) or the first proviso to Section 9.03(b) that 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 2.12, 2.13 and 2.14 (subject to the limitations and requirements of such Sections and Section 2.16) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal and interest amounts of each Participant’s interest in the Loans (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary; provided that no Lender shall have the obligation to disclose all or a portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any loans or other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary in connection with a Tax audit or other proceeding to establish that any loans are in registered form for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12 or 2.14 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 (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(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 without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other applicable central bank which governs or regulates the activities of such Lender, 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.

(e) Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans may not be assigned to Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation, Liberty Spinco, Inc., a Delaware corporation, the Satisfactory HoldCo, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Affiliates, in each case from the Closing Date until the first date on which such Person is no longer an Affiliate of the Borrower.

SECTION 9.06 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by any Credit Parties herein, in the other Credit Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable

-88-

under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Revolving Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.14 and 9.04 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Revolving Commitments, any assignment of rights by or replacement of a Lender or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.07 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger or any of the Lenders constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective as provided in Section 4.01, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by email or telecopy shall be effective as delivery of an originally executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.08 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.09 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, 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 obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower then due and owing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

SECTION 9.13 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory or self-regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or the enforcement of any right under this Agreement or any other Credit Document in any litigation or arbitration or proceeding relating thereto, to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary in connection with such litigation or arbitration action or proceeding (provided that the Borrower shall be given notice thereof and a reasonable opportunity to seek a protective court order with respect to such information prior to such disclosure (it being understood that the refusal by a court to grant such a protective order shall not prevent the disclosure of such Information thereafter)), (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower, (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or an agreement described in clause (f) hereof or becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or its Affiliates relating to the Borrower, its subsidiaries or their businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or its Affiliates. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would reasonably accord to its own confidential information.

Each Lender acknowledges that information furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents may include material non-public information concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable law, including federal and state securities laws.

All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement or the other Credit Documents will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to the Borrower and

-90-

the Administrative Agent that it has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including federal and state securities laws.

SECTION 9.14 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender subject to the USA PATRIOT Act hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is hereby required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower or any Successor Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower or any Successor Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower or any Successor Borrower in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

SECTION 9.15 Releases of Guarantees and Liens.

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by the Credit Parties on any Collateral shall be automatically released (i) in full, as set forth in clause (d) below, (ii) upon the disposition of such Collateral as part of or in connection with any disposition permitted hereunder to any Person other than another Credit Party, to the extent such disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by a responsible officer of any Credit Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iii) to the extent such Collateral is comprised of property leased to a Credit Party by a Person that is not a Credit Party, upon termination or expiration of such lease to the extent such Credit Party has no other rights in such Collateral, (iv) if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other percentage of the Lenders whose consent may be required in accordance with Section 9.02 or Section 9.03), (v) to the extent the property constituting such Collateral is owned by any Subsidiary Guarantor and no other Credit Party, upon the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantee (in accordance with the second succeeding sentence and Section 4.14 of the Subsidiary Guarantee), (vi) as required by the Administrative Agent to effect any disposition of Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Collateral Documents and (vii) to the extent such Collateral otherwise becomes Excluded Assets (as defined in the Security Agreement). Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those being released) upon (or obligations (other than those being released) of the Credit Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Credit Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral except to the extent otherwise released in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Documents. Additionally, the Lenders hereby irrevocably agree that the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be released from the Subsidiary Guarantees upon consummation of any transaction permitted hereunder resulting in such Subsidiary ceasing to constitute a Restricted Subsidiary, or otherwise ceasing to be a Material Domestic Subsidiary. The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to execute and deliver any instruments, documents, and agreements necessary or desirable to evidence and confirm the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor or Collateral pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph and paragraph (d), all without the further consent or joinder of any Lender. Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Credit Document relating to any such Collateral or Subsidiary Guarantor shall no longer be deemed to be repeated.

(b) If at any time (and from time to time) on or after the date of satisfaction of the HoldCo Condition when (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Total Leverage Ratio for the two consecutive Test Periods most recently ended on or prior to such date does not exceed 2.50 to 1.00 and (iii) no Permitted Additional Debt Document, or other document granting a Lien permitted by clause (x) of the definition of Permitted Liens, has then granted a valid Lien on any Collateral that will not concurrently become so suspended (such requirements, collectively, the “Suspension Conditions”), the Borrower, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall attach a certificate of a Financial Officer, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations necessary to demonstrate the Borrower’s satisfaction of the condition set forth above), may request that the Collateral be released from the Liens created by Collateral Documents (other than the HoldCo Pledge Agreement and the Pledge Agreement), and upon the Administrative Agent’s acceptance of such written request, all such Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Security Agreement without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person.

-91-

(c) If any Collateral has been released from the Liens created by the Security Agreement pursuant to Section 9.15(b), then on the date, if any, on which financial statements are delivered to the Lenders pursuant to Section 5.01 showing that the Total Leverage Ratio for the two consecutive Test Periods most recently ended on or prior to such date is greater than 3.50 to 1.00 (the “Reinstatement Condition”), the Loan Parties shall:

(i) upon request, promptly (A) enter into a new Security Agreement and any other applicable Collateral Document to replace the terminated Security Agreement or Collateral Document, as applicable, (and any period from and after a Collateral Release until the date of such reinstatement, a “Suspension Period”) and (B) deliver to the Administrative Agent (or its counsel) (including by telecopy or email transmission) a counterpart of the Security Agreement and other applicable Collateral Document signed on behalf of each Loan Party, and the Security Agreement and other applicable Collateral Documents shall be in full force and effect;
