(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension. The Borrower may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit) by delivering (i) telephonic notice promptly followed by written Letter of Credit Request or (ii) hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Lender (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned)) to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (at least two (2) Business Days in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a written Letter of Credit Request requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying (1) the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), (2) the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section 2.02), (3) the amount of such Letter of Credit, (4) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and (5) such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. Upon the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (x) the LC Exposure shall not exceed the LC Commitment and (y) the aggregate amount of the Unused Total Revolving Commitment shall not be less than zero. If requested by the applicable Issuing Lender, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Lender’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit; provided that, to the extent such standard form (and/or any related reimbursement agreement) is

inconsistent with the Loan Documents, the Loan Documents shall control. Upon receipt of a written notice from the Administrative Agent that the applicable conditions in Section 4.02 have been satisfied, the Issuing Lender shall issue the requested Letter of Credit in accordance with its usual and customary procedures. 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, an Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date that is (x) 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) or (y) such later date as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Issuing Lender, and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to the applicable Revolving Commitments (provided that, to the extent that all of the participations in such Letter of Credit held by the holders of such Revolving Commitments have been re-allocated or Cash Collateralized pursuant to the terms of any Extension Amendment, such Revolving Commitments shall be disregarded for purposes of this clause (ii)).

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit, including any amendment increasing the amount thereof), and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender or the Revolving Lenders, such Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Revolving Lender (other than such Issuing Lender), and each Revolving Lender (other than such Issuing Lender) hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender (other than the applicable Issuing Lender) hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the amount of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 2.02(e), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Lender (other than the applicable Issuing 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 of an Event of 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.

(i) If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement (whether or not such Letter of Credit was issued for the Borrower’s own account or in its name for the account or name of any other Subsidiary of the Parent) by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of such LC Disbursement not later than the first Business Day following the date the

Borrower receives notice from the Issuing Lender of such LC Disbursement; provided that, in the case of any LC Disbursement, to the extent not reimbursed and, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, including, without limitation, making a request in accordance with Section 2.03(a) that such payment shall be financed with a Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans, as the case may be, in an equivalent amount, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans.

(ii) If the Borrower fails to make any payment due under the preceding paragraph (i) with respect to a Letter of Credit when due (including by a Borrowing), 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 Revolving Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.04 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Lender 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 this Section 2.02(e) with respect to any LC Disbursement, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Revolving Lenders and such Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Revolving 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 Section 2.02(e) 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 or herein, (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 applicable Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply strictly 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 2.02, 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 applicable Issuing Lender, 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 applicable Issuing Lender. Nothing in the preceding two sentences shall be construed to excuse an Issuing Lender 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 (i) that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof or (ii) that result from such Issuing Lender’s willful or grossly negligent failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Letter of Credit (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction). The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the applicable Issuing Lender 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 applicable Issuing Lender 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 applicable Issuing Lender shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment, whether the applicable Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder and the amount of such LC Disbursement; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with the terms herein.

(h) Interim Interest. If the applicable Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse (including by a Borrowing) such LC Disbursement in full not later than the first Business Day following the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse (including by a Borrowing) such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to Section 2.02(e), then Section 2.08 shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to Section 2.02(e) to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of the Issuing Lender. Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Lender. At the time any such

replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.21. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender 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) Replacement of Letters of Credit; Cash Collateralization. The Borrower shall (i) upon or prior to the occurrence of the earlier of (A) the Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to all Revolving Commitments and (B) the acceleration of the Revolving Loans (if any) and the termination of the Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms hereof, (x) cause all Letters of Credit which expire after the earlier to occur of (A) the Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to all Revolving Commitments and (B) the acceleration of the Revolving Loans (if any) and the termination of the Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms hereof (the “Outstanding Letters of Credit”) to be returned to the applicable Issuing Lender undrawn and marked “cancelled” or (y) if the Borrower does not do so in whole or in part either (A) provide one or more “back-to-back” letters of credit to each applicable Issuing Lender with respect to any such Outstanding Letters of Credit in a form reasonably satisfactory to each such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent, issued by a bank reasonably satisfactory to each such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent, and/or (B) deposit cash in the Letter of Credit Account, as collateral security for the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations in connection with any such Outstanding Letters of Credit, such cash (or any applicable portion thereof) to be promptly remitted to the Borrower upon the expiration, cancellation or other termination or satisfaction of the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations with respect to such Outstanding Letters of Credit, in whole or in part, in an aggregate principal amount for all such “back-to-back” letters of credit and any such Cash Collateralization equal to 102% of the then outstanding amount of all LC Exposure (less the amount, if any, on deposit in the Letter of Credit Account prior to taking any action pursuant to clauses (A) or (B) above), and (ii) if required pursuant to Section 2.02(l), 2.12(c), 2.12(d), 2.12(e), 2.12(g), 2.26(d)(ii), 2.26(e)(ii), 2.26(f) or 7.01 or pursuant to any Extension Amendment, deposit in the Letter of Credit Account an amount required pursuant to Section 2.02(l), 2.12(c), 2.12(d), 2.12(e), 2.12(g), 2.26(d)(ii), 2.26(e)(ii), 2.26(f) or 7.01, or pursuant to any such Extension Amendment, as applicable (any such deposit or provision of “back-to-back” letters of credit described in the preceding clause (i) or clause (ii), “Cash Collateralization” (it being understood that any LC Exposure shall be deemed to be “Cash Collateralized” only to the extent a deposit or provision of “back-to-back” letters of credit as described above is made in an amount equal to 102% of the amount of such LC Exposure)). The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over the Letter of Credit 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 (in accordance with its usual and customary practices for investments of this type) and at the Borrower’s risk and reasonable expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account and shall be paid to the Borrower on its request. Moneys in such account shall be

applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender 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. If the Borrower is required to provide Cash Collateralization hereunder pursuant to Section 2.02(l), 2.12(c), 2.12(d), 2.12(e), 2.12(g), 2.26(d)(ii), 2.26(e)(ii) or 2.26(f), or the terms of any Extension Amendment, such Cash Collateralization (to the extent not applied as contemplated by the applicable section) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after the applicable section (or Extension Amendment) no longer requires the provision of such Cash Collateralization.

(k) Issuing Lender Agreements. Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the daily activity (set forth by day) in respect of Letters of Credit during the immediately preceding week, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed, or extended by it (and whether, subject to Section 2.02(b), the face amount of any such Letter of Credit was changed thereby) and the aggregate face amount of such Letters of Credit outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender makes any LC Disbursement, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Lender on such day, the date of such failure, and the amount of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request. The Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of each Letter of Credit to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly following the issuance, amendment, renewal and extension thereof.

(l) Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Commitments. If the Revolving Facility Maturity Date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit with respect to which Lenders holding such Revolving Commitments hold participation interests, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolving Commitments in respect of which the Revolving Facility Maturity Date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit automatically shall be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.02(d) or (e) and for any reallocations required pursuant to Section 2.26(d)(i)) under (and ratably participated in by Revolving Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Unused Total Revolving Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.02(j). For the avoidance of doubt, commencing with the Revolving Facility Maturity Date of any tranche of Revolving Commitments, the sublimit for Letters of Credit under any tranche of Revolving Commitments that has not so then matured shall be as agreed in the relevant Extension Amendment with such Revolving Lenders (to the extent such Extension Amendment so provides).

SECTION 2.03. Requests for Loans.

(a) Revolving Loans. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent in connection with making the initial Revolving Loans, to request a Revolving Loan, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by (i) telephone or (ii) by hand or by facsimile delivery of a written Loan Request (A) in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before proposed Borrowing Date and (B) in the case of an ABR Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the proposed Borrowing Date. Each such telephonic Revolving Loan request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Loan Request signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic Revolving Loan request and written Loan Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.01:

(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Revolving Loan (which shall comply with Section 2.01(d));

(ii) the Borrowing Date of such Revolving Loan, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether such Revolving Loan is to be an ABR Loan or a Eurodollar Loan; and

(iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period.”

If no election as to the Type of Revolving Loan is specified, then the requested Revolving Loan shall be an ABR Loan. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Loan, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Loan Request in accordance with this Section 2.03(a), the Administrative Agent shall advise each Revolving Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Revolving Loan.

(b) Term Loans. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent, to request the Term Loans, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, two (2) Business Days before the Closing Date and (ii) in the case of an ABR Loan, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time one (1) Business Day before the Closing Date. Each such telephonic Term Loan request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Loan Request signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Loan Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.01:

(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Term Loan (which shall comply with Section 2.01(d));

(ii) the Borrowing Date of such Term Loan, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether such Term Loan is to be an ABR Loan or a Eurodollar Loan; and

(iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Loan, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period.”

If no election as to the Type of Term Loan is specified, then the requested Term Loan shall be an ABR Loan. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Loan, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Loan Request in accordance with this Section 2.03(b), the Administrative Agent shall advise each Term Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Term Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Term Loan.

SECTION 2.04. Funding of Loans.

(a) Each Revolving Lender shall make each Revolving Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed Borrowing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, New York City time, or such earlier time as may be reasonably practicable, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, the Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account designated by the Borrower in the applicable Loan Request; provided that ABR Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.02(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the relevant Issuing Lender.

(b) Each Term Lender shall make each Term Loan to be made by it hereunder on the Borrowing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, or such earlier time as may be reasonably practicable, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, the Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account designated by the Borrower in the applicable Loan Request.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed Borrowing Date (or, with respect to any ABR Loan made on same-day notice, prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Borrowing Date of such Loan) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such Borrowing Date in accordance with paragraph (a) and/or (b) of this Section 2.04 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 Loan available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the

Administrative Agent forthwith upon written 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, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and 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 otherwise applicable to such Loan. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Loan and the Borrower shall not be obligated to repay such amount pursuant to the preceding sentence if not previously repaid.

SECTION 2.05. Interest Elections.

(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to (i) convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans, (ii) convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans; provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may be made only on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto or (iii) continue any Eurodollar Loan as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto.

(b) To make an Interest Election Request pursuant to this Section 2.05, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone or by hand or facsimile delivery or by electronic mail of a written Interest Election Request by the time that a Loan Request would be required under Section 2.03(a) or Section 2.03(b) if the Borrower were requesting a Loan 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 irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, electronic mail or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in substantially the same form as a Loan Request signed by the Borrower.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.01:

(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 Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar 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 Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar 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 converted to a one-month Eurodollar Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and upon the request of the Required Lenders, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.06. Limitation on Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than twenty Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

SECTION 2.07. Interest on Loans.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08, each ABR Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 days or 366 days in a leap year) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08, each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) Accrued interest on all Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto, on the Termination Date with respect to such Loans and thereafter on written demand and upon any repayment or prepayment thereof (on the amount repaid or prepaid); provided that in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to an ABR Loan, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

SECTION 2.08. Default Interest. If the Borrower or any Guarantor, as the case may be, shall default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or in the payment of any other amount becoming due hereunder (including, without limitation, the reimbursement pursuant to Section 2.02(e) of any LC Disbursements), whether at Stated Maturity, by

acceleration or otherwise, the Borrower or such Guarantor, as the case may be, shall on written demand of the Administrative Agent from time to time pay interest, to the extent permitted by law, on all overdue amounts up to (but not including) the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days or, when the Alternate Base Rate is applicable, a year of 365 days or 366 days in a leap year) equal to (a) with respect to the principal amount of any Loan, the rate then applicable for such Borrowings plus 2.0%, and (b) in the case of all other amounts, the rate applicable for ABR Loans plus 2.0%.

SECTION 2.09. Alternate Rate of Interest. In the event, and on each occasion, that on the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBO Rate, the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written, facsimile or telegraphic notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders and, until the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by the Borrower for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans hereunder (including pursuant to a refinancing with Eurodollar Loans and including any request to continue, or to convert to, Eurodollar Loans) shall be deemed a request for a Borrowing of ABR Loans.

SECTION 2.10. Amortization of Term Loans; Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan then outstanding on the Revolving Facility Termination Date applicable to such Revolving Loan.

(b) The principal amounts of the Class B Term Loans shall be repaid in consecutive annual installments (each, an “Installment”) of 1.00% of the sum of (i) the original aggregate principal amount of the Class B Term Loans made on the Closing Date plus (ii) the original aggregate principal amount of any Incremental Term Loans of the same Class as the Class B Term Loans from time to time after the Closing Date, on each anniversary of the Closing Date occurring prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date with respect to such Class B Term Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (1) such Installments shall be reduced in connection with any mandatory or voluntary prepayments of the Class B Term Loans in accordance with Sections 2.12 and 2.13, as applicable, and (2) the Term Loans, together with all other amounts owed hereunder with respect thereto, shall, in any event, be paid in full no later than the applicable Term Loan 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.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the 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 Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. The Borrower shall have the right, upon reasonable notice, to request information regarding the accounts referred to in the preceding sentence.

(e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section 2.10 shall be prima facie evidence 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.

(f) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns in a form furnished by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.02) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to such payee and its registered assigns.

SECTION 2.11. Optional Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments. Upon at least one (1) Business Day prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate the Total Revolving Commitment (subject to compliance with Section 2.12(e)), or from time to time in part permanently reduce the Unused Total Revolving Commitment; provided that each such notice shall be revocable at any time prior to such reduction or termination, as the case may be, or to the extent such termination or reduction would have resulted from a refinancing of the Obligations, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed. Each such reduction of the Unused Total Revolving Commitment shall be in the principal amount not less than $1,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000. Simultaneously with each reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitment, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender the Commitment Fee accrued and unpaid on the amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender so terminated or reduced through the date thereof. Any reduction of the Unused Total Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be applied to reduce the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender on a pro rata basis.

SECTION 2.12. Mandatory Prepayment of Loans; Commitment Termination.

(a) If, as a result of a Disposition of Collateral or Recovery Event (which for the purposes of Section 6.04 shall be deemed to be a Disposition that is not a voluntary Disposition), the Borrower is not in compliance with Section 6.04 within the time periods set forth in Section 6.04, the Borrower shall deposit, on the next Business Day (or, if later, within five (5) Business Days of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries receiving any Net Proceeds as a result of such Disposition of Collateral or Recovery Event), cash in an amount (the “Net Proceeds

Amount”) equal to the amount of such received Net Proceeds (solely to the extent necessary to maintain compliance with Section 6.04) into the Collateral Proceeds Account that is maintained with the Collateral Agent for such purpose and subject to an Account Control Agreement and thereafter such Net Proceeds Amount shall be applied (to the extent not otherwise applied pursuant to the immediately succeeding proviso and solely to the extent the Borrower is not in compliance with Section 6.04) in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.12(c); provided that (i) the Borrower may use such Net Proceeds Amount to replace with Qualified Replacement Assets or, solely in the case of any Net Proceeds Amount in respect of any Recovery Event, repair the assets which are the subject of such Disposition of Collateral or Recovery Event within 365 days after such deposit is made, (ii) all such Net Proceeds Amounts shall be subject to release as provided in Section 6.09(c) or, at the option of the Borrower at any time, may be applied in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.12(c) and (iii) upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the amount of any such deposit may be applied by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.12(c); provided, further that any release of any Net Proceeds Amount pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 2.12(a) shall be conditioned on the Borrower being in compliance with Section 6.04 after giving effect thereto (it being understood that the failure to be in compliance with Section 6.04 shall not prevent the release of any Net Proceeds Amount in connection with any repair or replacement of assets permitted hereunder so long as no decrease in the Collateral Coverage Ratio will result therefrom).

(b) The Borrower shall prepay the Loans (without, in the case of any Revolving Loan, any corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments) when and in an amount necessary to comply with Section 6.09(b)(y).

(c) Amounts required to be applied to the prepayment of Loans pursuant to Sections 2.12(a) and (b) shall be applied to prepay the outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.17(e)(i) and/or the outstanding Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.17(e)(ii) (and to provide Cash Collateralization for the outstanding LC Exposure following the repayment of all outstanding Revolving Loans), in an amount necessary to comply with Section 6.04 or 6.09(b), as the case may be, in each case as directed by the Borrower. Any such prepayments of Revolving Loans (and Cash Collateralization of the outstanding LC Exposure) shall not result in a corresponding permanent reduction in the Revolving Commitments. Any Cash Collateralization of outstanding LC Exposure shall be consummated in accordance with Section 2.02(j). The application of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be made, first, to ABR Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans. Term Loans prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.12 may not be reborrowed.

(d) If at any time the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit for any reason exceed the Total Revolving Commitment at such time, the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Revolving Loans, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit exceed the Total Revolving Commitment then in effect, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit to the extent of such excess.

(e) Upon the Revolving Facility Termination Date applicable to any Revolving Commitment, such Revolving Commitment shall be terminated in full and the Borrower shall repay the applicable Revolving Loans in full and, except as the Administrative Agent may otherwise agree in writing, if any Letter of Credit remains outstanding, comply with Section 2.02(j) in accordance therewith.

(f) All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus, if applicable, any accrued and unpaid Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Section 2.15.

(g) If a Change of Control occurs within thirty (30) days following the occurrence of such Change of Control, the Borrower (or Parent (or any third party on behalf of the Borrower)) shall (i) prepay all of the outstanding Loans at a prepayment price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of prepayment, (ii) discharge all of the LC Exposure, if any, by Cash Collateralizing such LC Exposure and (iii) terminate all of the Unused Total Revolving Commitment, if any, in accordance with this Section 2.12.

SECTION 2.13. Optional Prepayment of Loans.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to prepay any Loans, in whole or in part, (i) with respect to Eurodollar Loans, upon (A) telephonic notice (followed promptly by written or facsimile notice or notice by electronic mail) (which notice may be conditional notice) to the Administrative Agent or (B) written or facsimile notice (or notice by electronic mail) (which notice may be conditional notice) to the Administrative Agent, in any case received by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of prepayment and (ii) with respect to ABR Loans, upon written or facsimile notice (or notice by electronic mail) (which notice may be conditional notice) to the Administrative Agent received by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed date of prepayment; provided that ABR Loans may be prepaid on the same day notice is given if such notice is received by the Administrative Agent by 12:00 noon, New York City time; provided, further, that any revocation of such conditional notice occurs within the applicable notice period plus 5 Business Days; provided, further, however, that (A) each such partial prepayment shall be in an amount not less than $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in the case of Eurodollar Loans and integral multiples of $100,000 in the case of ABR Loans, (B) no prepayment of Eurodollar Loans shall be permitted pursuant to this Section 2.13(a) other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto unless such prepayment is accompanied by the payment of the amounts described in Section 2.15, and (C) no partial prepayment of a Eurodollar Tranche shall result in the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans remaining outstanding pursuant to such Eurodollar Tranche being less than $1,000,000.

(b) Any prepayments under Section 2.13(a) shall be applied, at the option of the Borrower, to (i) repay the outstanding Revolving Loans of the Revolving Lenders (without any reduction in the Total Revolving Commitment) until all Revolving Loans shall have been paid in full (plus any accrued but unpaid interest and fees thereon) and/or (ii) prepay the Term Loans, in each case as the Borrower shall specify. All such prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied in the manner directed by the Borrower (or, if no such direction is given, in direct order of maturity) to the remaining scheduled Installments of the applicable Class of Term Loans being

prepaid. All prepayments under Section 2.13(a) shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus, if applicable, any Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Section 2.15. Term Loans prepaid pursuant to Section 2.13(a) may not be reborrowed.

(c) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of the Loans to be prepaid and, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Loan by the amount and on the date stated therein; provided that the Borrower may revoke any notice of prepayment under this Section 2.13 if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of any or all of the Obligations hereunder, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed, or in accordance with Section 2.13(a) if the notice of prepayment was a conditional notice. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receiving notice from the Borrower hereunder, notify each Lender of the principal amount of the Loans held by such Lender which are to be prepaid, the prepayment date and the manner of application of the prepayment.

(d) In the event that, prior to the date that is six months after the Closing Date, there shall occur any Repricing Event, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the Term Lenders holding Class B Term Loans subject to such Repricing Event, (i) in the case of a Repricing Event of the type described in clause (a) of the definition thereof, a prepayment premium of 1% of the aggregate principal amount of the Class B Term Loans subject to such Repricing Event and (ii) in the case of a Repricing Event of the type described in clause (b) of the definition thereof, an amount equal to 1 % of the aggregate principal amount of the Class B Term Loans subject to such Repricing Event outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness thereof, in each case unless such fee is waived by the applicable Term Lender. Any Term Lender that is a non-consenting Lender in respect of a Repricing Event may be replaced in accordance with Section 10.08(d) to the extent permitted thereby; provided that any such Term Lender so replaced shall be entitled to the prepayment premium set forth in clause (i) of the preceding sentence with respect to its Class B Term Loans so assigned unless such fee is waived by such Term Lender.

SECTION 2.14. 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 or Issuing Lender (except any such reserve requirement subject to Section 2.14(c)); or

(ii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Lender of participating

in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to any Eurodollar Loan or Letter of Credit (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, upon the request of such Lender or Issuing Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or Issuing Lender reasonably determines in good faith that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Eurodollar Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts, in each case as documented by such Lender or Issuing Lender to the Borrower as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; it being understood that this Section 2.14(b) shall not apply to Taxes.

(c) Solely to the extent arising from a Change in Law, the Borrower shall pay to each Lender (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurodollar funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurodollar Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan; provided that the Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, and which notice shall specify the Statutory Reserve Rate, if any, applicable to such Lender) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give written notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.

(d) A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.14 and the basis for calculating such amount or amounts shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such certificate.

(e) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing 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. The protection of this Section 2.14 shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention as to the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed.

(f) The Borrower shall not be required to make payments under this Section 2.14 to any Lender or Issuing Lender if (A) a claim hereunder arises solely through circumstances peculiar to such Lender or Issuing Lender and which do not affect commercial banks in the jurisdiction of organization of such Lender or Issuing Lender generally, (B) the claim arises out of a voluntary relocation by such Lender or Issuing Lender of its applicable lending office (it being understood that any such relocation effected pursuant to Section 2.18 is not “voluntary”), or (C) such Lender or Issuing Lender is not seeking similar compensation for such costs to which it is entitled from its borrowers generally in commercial loans of a similar size.

(g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, regulations, requests, rules, guidelines or directives implemented after the Closing Date pursuant to the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or Basel III shall be deemed to be a Change in Law; provided, however, that any determination by a Lender or Issuing Lender of amounts owed pursuant to this Section 2.14 to such Lender or Issuing Lender due to any such Change in Law shall be made in good faith in a manner generally consistent with such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s standard practice.

SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default), (b) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (c) the assignment of any Eurodollar 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 2.18, Section 2.27(d) or Section 10.08(d), then, in any such event, at the request of such Lender, the Borrower shall compensate such Lender for the loss, cost and expense sustained by such Lender attributable to such event; provided that in no case shall this Section 2.15 apply to any payment of an Installment pursuant to Section 2.10(b). Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined in good faith by such Lender or Issuing 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 applicable rate of interest for such Loan (excluding, however the Applicable Margin included therein, if any), 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 (as reasonably determined by such Lender) 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 dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts (and the basis for requesting such amount or amounts) that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount due within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such certificate.

SECTION 2.16. Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor 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 Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender, as determined in good faith by the applicable Withholding Agent, then (i) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower or applicable Guarantor shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including deductions for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16), the Administrative Agent, Lender, Issuing Lender or any other recipient of such payments (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 timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

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

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Lender, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by or on behalf of or withheld or deducted from payments owing to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.16) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, 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 Issuing Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment to the extent available, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender shall, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent the Administrative Agent has not been reimbursed by the Borrower) for the full amount of any Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority that are attributable to such Lender and that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, together with all interest, penalties, reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and as reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided that a Foreign Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation pursuant to this Section 2.16(f) that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver. For purposes of this paragraph (f) and paragraphs (g) and (h), the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender.

(g) (1) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered certificates and/or forms expire, or upon request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) two (2) duly executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party;

(ii) two (2) duly executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI;

(iii) two (2) duly executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W 8IMY, together with the forms for its beneficiaries, partners or members described in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of this subparagraph (g)(1) or in subparagraph (g)(2) and other applicable attachments;

(iv) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (D) conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected and (y) two (2) duly executed originals of the Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

(v) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax and reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to permit the Borrower to determine the withholding or required deduction to be made.

A Foreign Lender shall not be required to deliver any form or statement pursuant to this Section 2.16(g) that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(2) Any Lender that is a “United States Person” (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered certificates and/or forms expire, or upon request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two (2) copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form), properly completed and duly executed by such Lender, certifying that such Lender is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax.

(3) The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower on or prior to the date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered forms expire, or upon request of the Borrower) executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. The Administrative Agent represents that it is a financial institution within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulation § 1.1441-1(c)(5).

(4) If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement or 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 Section 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 law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable 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 or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes from the Governmental Authority to which such Taxes or Other Taxes were paid and as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or a Guarantor or with respect to which the Borrower or a Guarantor has paid

additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower or such Guarantor (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower or such Guarantor under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender incurred in obtaining such refund (including Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower or such Guarantor, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower or such Guarantor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) 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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) if, and then only to the extent, the payment of such amount would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 2.16 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.

SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment or prepayment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxx, Ops III, Xxx Xxxxxx, XX 00000, pursuant to wire instructions to be provided by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 10.04 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it (including, subject to the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement, any payment received from the sale or disposal of Collateral pursuant to any Collateral Document) for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all Obligations then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied, subject to the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, (i) first, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under

Sections 2.19 and 10.04 payable to each Agent and any trustee appointed pursuant to Section 8.01(d), to the extent applicable, (ii) second, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.20, 2.21 and 10.04 payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders and towards payment of interest then due on account of the Revolving Loans, Term Loans and Letters of Credit, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Fees and expenses and interest then due to such parties and (iii) third, towards payment of (A) principal of the Revolving Loans, Term Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, (B) any Designated Banking Product Obligations then due, to the extent such Designated Banking Product Obligations constitute “Obligations” hereunder, and (C) any Designated Hedging Obligations then due, to the extent such Designated Hedging Obligations constitute “Obligations” hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, Designated Banking Product Obligations constituting Obligations and Designated Hedging Obligations constituting Obligations then due to such parties. Excluded Swap Obligations with respect to any Guarantor shall not be paid with amounts received from such Guarantor or its assets, but appropriate adjustment shall be made with respect to payments from the Borrower or other Guarantors to preserve the allocations to Obligations otherwise set forth above in this Section 2.17(b).

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(d) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment or Extension of Credit required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(d), 2.02(e), 2.04(a), 2.04(b), 2.04(c), 8.04 or 10.04(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(e) Pro Rata Treatment.

(i) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on any Class of Term Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of such Class of Term Loans then held by the applicable Term Lenders (except that assignments to the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.02(g) shall not be subject to this Section 2.17(e)(i)). All such prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied in the manner directed by the Borrower (or, if no such direction is given, in direct order of maturity) to the remaining scheduled Installments of the applicable Class of Term Loans being prepaid.

(ii) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on any Class of Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of such Class of Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders.

For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Section 2.17 shall not be constructed to apply to (A) Cash Collateralization provided for in this Agreement, (B) assignments and participations (including by means of a Dutch Auction or open-market purchase) described in Section 10.02, (C) any circumstance contemplated by Section 2.18(b), 2.26, 2.27, 2.28, 10.08(d), 10.08(e) or 10.08(f), (D) the application of funds resulting from the existence of a Defaulting Lender, or (E) any other circumstance expressly provided for herein.

SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender under Section 2.14 or to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder, to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrower or to take other reasonable measures, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation, assignment, filing or other measures (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, 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. Nothing in this Section 2.18 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16.

(b) If, after the date hereof, any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 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 2.16, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (i) terminate such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, prepay such Lender’s outstanding Loans and provide Cash Collateralization for such Lender’s LC Exposure, as applicable, or (ii) require such Lender to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.02), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), in any case as of a Business Day specified in such notice from the Borrower; provided that (i) such terminated or assigning Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and unreimbursed payments attributable to its participations in LC Disbursements, as applicable, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts due, owing and payable to it hereunder at the time of such termination or assignment, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees in the case of an assignment) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (ii) in the case of an assignment due to payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.

SECTION 2.19. Certain Fees. The Borrower shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent the fees set forth in that certain Administrative Agent Fee Letter, dated as of September 10, 2014, between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower as amended, restated, modified, supplemented or replaced from time to time (the “Administrative Agent Fee Letter”) and (ii) to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners the fees set forth in that certain Joint Lead Arranger Fee Letter dated as of September 10, 2014, as amended, restated, modified, supplemented or replaced from time to time and between the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners, and the Borrower (the “Joint Lead Arranger Fee Letter”) at the times set forth therein.

SECTION 2.20. Commitment Fee.

The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the accounts of the Revolving Lenders a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) for the period commencing on the Closing Date to the Revolving Facility Termination Date with respect to the applicable Revolving Commitments or the earlier date of termination of the applicable Revolving Commitment, computed (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily Unused Total Revolving Commitment. Such Commitment Fee, to the extent then accrued, shall be payable quarterly in arrears (a) following the Closing Date on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, (b) on the Revolving Facility Termination Date with respect to the applicable Revolving Commitments and (c) as provided in Section 2.11, upon any reduction or termination in whole or in part of the Total Revolving Commitment.

SECTION 2.21. Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay with respect to each Letter of Credit (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Lenders a fee calculated (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at the per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans under the Revolving Facility on the daily average LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements), to be shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and (ii) to each Issuing Lender (with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it), such Issuing Lender’s customary and reasonable fees as may be agreed by the Issuing Lender and the Borrower for issuance, amendments and processing referred to in Section 2.02. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay each Issuing Lender for its account a fronting fee of 0.125% per annum in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the date of termination or expiration of such Letter of Credit. Accrued fees described in this paragraph in respect of each Letter of Credit shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the Revolving Facility Termination Date with respect to the applicable Revolving Commitments. Fees accruing on any Letter of Credit outstanding after the applicable Revolving Facility Termination Date shall be payable quarterly in the manner described in the immediately preceding sentence and on the date of expiration or termination of any such Letter of Credit.

SECTION 2.22. Nature of Fees. All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Joint Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners, as provided herein and in the Fee Letters. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable or creditable under any circumstances, except as otherwise provided in the Fee Letters.

SECTION 2.23. Right of Set-Off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01(b), the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, each Issuing Lender and each Lender (and their respective banking Affiliates) are 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 but excluding deposits in the Escrow Accounts, Payroll Accounts and other accounts, in each case, held in trust for an identified beneficiary) at any time held and other Indebtedness at any time owing by the Administrative Agent, each such Issuing Lender and each such Lender (or any of such banking Affiliates) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any Guarantor against any and all of any such overdue amounts owing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under any Loan Document; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender exercises any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.26(g) and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent agree promptly to notify the Borrower and Guarantors after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent (or any of such banking Affiliates), as the case may be; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.23 are in addition to other rights and remedies which such Lender and the Administrative Agent may have upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default.

SECTION 2.24. Security Interest in Letter of Credit Account. The Borrower and the Guarantors hereby pledge to the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and for the benefit of the other Secured Parties, and hereby grant to the Collateral Agent, for its benefit and for the benefit of the other Secured Parties, a first priority security interest, senior to all other Liens, if any, in all of the Borrower’s and the Guarantors’ right, title and interest in and to the Letter of Credit Account, any direct investment of the funds contained therein and any proceeds thereof. Cash held in the Letter of Credit Account shall not be available for use by the Borrower, and shall be released to the Borrower only as described in Section 2.02(j).

SECTION 2.25. Payment of Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, upon the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of any of the Obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents of the Borrower and the Guarantors, the Lenders shall be entitled to immediate payment of such Obligations.

SECTION 2.26. Defaulting Lenders.

(a) If at any time any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, on ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, (i) terminate such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, prepay such Lender’s outstanding Loans and provide Cash Collateralization for such Lender’s LC Exposure, as applicable, or (ii) replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.02(b) (with the assignment fee to be waived in such instance and subject to any consents required by such Section) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person.

(b) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 2.26(a) shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such Lender’s outstanding Commitments, Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and (ii) deliver any documentation evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as specified by the Borrower and such assignee, of the assigning Lender’s outstanding Commitments, Loans and participations in Letters of Credit, (B) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Commitments, Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance (including, without limitation, any amounts owed under Section 2.15 due to such replacement occurring on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period), and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate documentation executed by the Borrower in connection with previous Borrowings, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Commitments, Loans and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender; provided that an assignment contemplated by this Section 2.26(b) shall become effective notwithstanding the failure by the Lender being replaced to deliver the Assignment and Acceptance contemplated by this Section 2.26(b), so long as the other actions specified in this Section 2.26(b) shall have been taken.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if a Revolving Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, during such period, such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to Section 2.20 and 2.21 (without prejudice to the rights of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees); provided that (a) to the extent that all or a portion of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.26(d)(i), such fees that would have accrued for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender shall instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders and (b) to the extent that all or any portion of such LC Exposure cannot be so reallocated and is not Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 2.26(d)(ii), such fees shall instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the Issuing Lenders as their interests appear (and the applicable pro rata payment provisions under this Agreement shall automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section 2.26).

(d) If any LC Exposure exists at the time a Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender will, upon at least two (2) Business Days prior notice to the Borrower and the Non-Defaulting Lenders by the Administrative Agent, and subject in any event to the limitation in the first proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day specified in such notice) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments; provided that (A) the Revolving Extensions of Credit of each such Non-Defaulting Lender may not in any event exceed the Revolving Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation, (B) such reallocation will not constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender, (C) at the time of such reallocation, no Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01(b), (e)(B), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing and (D) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result thereof will cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender; and

(ii) to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of the Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of the first proviso in clause (i) above or otherwise, the Borrower will, not later than three (3) Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent, (A) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Lenders in respect of such LC Exposure in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of such LC Exposure or (B) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender.

(e) In addition to the other conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement, if any Revolving Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit or to amend any outstanding Letter of Credit, unless:

(i) in the case of a Defaulting Lender, the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated, as to outstanding and future Letters of Credit, to the Non-Defaulting Lenders as provided in Section 2.26(d)(i), except as provided in clause (ii) below, and

(ii) to the extent full reallocation does not occur as provided in clause (i) above, without limiting the provisions of Section 2.26(f), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit, or makes other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lenders in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender, or

(iii) to the extent that neither reallocation nor Cash Collateralization occurs pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii), then in the case of a proposed issuance of a Letter of Credit, by an instrument or instruments in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, (A) the Borrower agrees that the face amount of such requested Letter of Credit will be reduced by an amount equal to the portion thereof as to which such Defaulting Lender would otherwise be liable, and (B) the Non-Defaulting Lenders’ obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit shall be on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, and that the applicable pro rata payment provisions under this Agreement will be deemed adjusted to reflect this provision (provided that nothing in this clause (iii) will be deemed to increase the Revolving Commitments of any Lender, nor to constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender, nor to cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender).

(f) If any Revolving Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender and if any Letter of Credit is at the time outstanding, the applicable Issuing Lender may (except to the extent the Revolving Commitments of such Defaulting Lender have been fully reallocated pursuant to Section 2.26(d)(i)), by notice to the Borrower and such Defaulting Lender through the Administrative Agent, require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize, not later than three (3) Business Days after receipt by the Borrower of such notice, the obligations of the Borrower to such Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect thereof, or to make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender.

(g) Any amount paid by the Borrower or otherwise received by the Administrative Agent for the account of any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but shall instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account until (subject to Section 2.26(i)) the termination of the Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder and will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority:

first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent;

second, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders under this Agreement;

third, to the payment of the default interest and then current interest due and payable to the Revolving Lenders which are Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them;

fourth, to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them;

fifth, to pay principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable to them;

sixth, to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders;

seventh, to the funding of any Loan or the funding or Cash Collateralization of any participation in any Letter of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent;

eighth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, held in such account as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement;

ninth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by a Borrower or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and

tenth, after the termination of the Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(h) The Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender upon not less than ten (10) Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.26(g) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) such termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender, or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

(i) If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and (in the case of Revolving Lender) the Issuing Lenders agree in writing that a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any amounts then held in the segregated account referred to in Section 2.26(g)), such Lender, to the extent applicable, shall purchase at par such portions of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders, and/or make such other adjustments, as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Lenders to hold Loans on a pro rata basis in accordance with their ratable shares, whereupon such Lender

shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender (and the LC Exposure of each Revolving Lender shall automatically be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing); provided that no adjustments shall be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Lender that is an Issuing Lender hereunder may not be replaced in its capacity as an Issuing Lender at any time that it has a Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender have been made with respect to such outstanding Letters of Credit.

SECTION 2.27. Increase in Commitment.

(a) Borrower Request. The Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent request (x) prior to the Revolving Facility Maturity Date, an increase to the existing Revolving Commitments and/or LC Commitment or to establish one or more new Revolving Commitments and/or LC Commitments (each, an “Incremental Revolving Commitment”) and/or (y) at any time the establishment of one or more new Term Loan Commitments (each, an “Incremental Term Loan Commitment”, and together with the Incremental Revolving Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”) by an amount not less than $50,000,000 individually. Each such notice shall specify (i) the date (each, an “Increase Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Incremental Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent (or such earlier date agreed by the Administrative Agent) and (ii) the identity of each Eligible Assignee or other lender reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of any Incremental Revolving Commitment that contains an LC Commitment, each Issuing Lender) to whom the Borrower proposes any portion of such Incremental Commitments be allocated (each, a “New Lender”) and the amounts of such allocations; provided that any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Incremental Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Commitment.

(b) Conditions. The Incremental Commitments shall become effective, as of such Increase Effective Date; provided that:

(i) each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied on or prior to such Increase Effective Date before and after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments;

(ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from giving effect to the Incremental Commitments on, or the making of any new Loans on, such Increase Effective Date; and

(iii) the Borrower shall provide an Officer’s Certificate demonstrating in reasonable detail that, after giving pro forma effect to (1) the Incremental Commitments, (2) any new Loans to be made on such Increase Effective Date and (3) the pledge of any Additional Collateral, the Collateral Coverage Ratio shall be no less than 1.6 to 1.0 and the aggregate amount of Liquidity shall be no less than $2,000,000,000.

(c) Terms of New Loans and Commitments. The terms and provisions of Loans made pursuant to the new Commitments shall be as follows:

(i) terms and provisions with respect to interest rates, maturity date and amortization schedule of Loans made pursuant to any Incremental Term Loan Commitments (“Incremental Term Loans”) shall be as agreed upon between the Borrower and the applicable Lenders providing such Loans (it being understood that the Incremental Term Loans may be part of the Class B Term Loans or any other Class of Term Loans);

(ii) the maturity date of any Loans made pursuant to Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall be no earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date applicable to the Class B Term Loans that have not been extended pursuant to Section 2.28;

(iii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Loans made pursuant to Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loan Commitments made on the Closing Date;

(iv) the interest rate margins for the Incremental Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable Lenders providing such Loans; provided, however, that, with respect to any Class of Incremental Term Loans, if the All-In Initial Yield on such Class of Incremental Term Loans exceeds the All-In Initial Yield on the initial Term Loans funded hereunder (the “Original Term Loans”) by more than 50 basis points (the amount of such excess, if any, above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Yield Differential”), then the interest rate margin (and, as provided in the following proviso, the LIBO Rate floor) then in effect for the Original Term Loans shall be increased to eliminate such Yield Differential; provided that, to the extent any portion of the Yield Differential is attributable to any LIBO Rate floor applicable to such Class of Incremental Term Loans exceeding the LIBO Rate floor applicable to the Original Term Loans, the LIBO Rate floor applicable to the Original Term Loans shall first be increased to eliminate such Yield Differential to an amount not to exceed the LIBO Rate floor applicable to such Class of Incremental Term Loans prior to any increase in the interest rate margin applicable to such Original Term Loans;

(v) the maturity date of any Revolving Loans extended pursuant to such new Commitments shall be no earlier than the Revolving Facility Maturity Date applicable to the Revolving Commitments that have not been extended pursuant to Section 2.28;

(vi) any Revolving Commitments established pursuant to such Incremental Revolving Commitments shall not require any scheduled amortization or mandatory commitment reduction prior to the Revolving Facility Maturity Date; and

(vii) to the extent that the terms and provisions of Incremental Term Loans or the Revolving Loans made pursuant to Incremental Revolving Commitments are not consistent with an outstanding Class of Term Loans or to the outstanding Revolving Loans, as applicable (except to the extent permitted by clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) above), such terms and conditions shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

The Incremental Commitments shall be effected by a joinder agreement (the “Increase Joinder”) executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender making such Incremental Commitment, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each of them. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Increase Joinder may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.27. In addition, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references in the Loan Documents to Revolving Loans or Term Loans shall be deemed, unless the context otherwise requires, to include references to Revolving Loans made pursuant to any increased Revolving Commitments and any Incremental Term Loans that are Term Loans, respectively, made pursuant to this Agreement.

(d) Adjustment of Revolving Loans. To the extent the Commitments being increased on the relevant Increase Effective Date are Revolving Commitments, each of the existing Revolving Lenders shall assign to each of the applicable New Lenders, and each of the New Lenders shall purchase from each of the existing Revolving Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving Loans outstanding on such Increase Effective Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans will be held by the existing Revolving Lenders and New Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the increased Revolving Commitments on such Increase Effective Date. If there is a new Borrowing of Revolving Loans on such Increase Effective Date, the Revolving Lenders after giving effect to such increased Revolving Commitments shall make such Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.01(a).

(e) Making of New Term Loans. On any Increase Effective Date on which one or more Incremental Term Loan Commitments becomes effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, each Lender of such Incremental Term Loan Commitment shall make an Incremental Term Loan to the Borrower in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Loan Commitment.

The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.28 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.11, 2.12, 2.17 and 8.08) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.28.

Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize each Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (each, an “Extension Amendment”) with the Borrower as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches or Classes in respect of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments so extended and such technical 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 tranches or sub-tranches or Classes, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.28. In

addition, if so provided in such Extension Amendment relating to a Revolver Extension and with the consent of the Issuing Lenders, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to Revolving Commitments not so extended shall be re-allocated from Revolving Lenders holding Revolving Commitments to Revolving Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such Extension 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 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; and provided, further, that the Borrower shall have the right (without limitation of its rights pursuant to Section 2.28(b)(iv) above) to (i) replace any non-extending Lender with respect to all or a portion of its Loans or Commitments, as applicable, in connection with either a Revolver Extension or a Term Loan Extension by having such Loans or Revolving Commitments (or any portion thereof) assigned, in accordance with Sections 2.28(b)(iv) and Section 10.02, at par, to one or more other Eligible Assignees or (ii) terminate all or a portion of the Commitments of, and repay the Obligations owing to any such non-extending Lender.

(b) The provisions of Section 6.01(a) will not prohibit:

(1) the payment of any dividend or distribution or the consummation of any irrevocable redemption within 60 days after the date of declaration of the dividend or distribution or giving of the redemption notice, as the case may be, if at the date of declaration or notice, the dividend or distribution or redemption payment would have complied with the provisions of this Agreement;

(20) payment of dividends in respect of Parent’s Capital Stock in each fiscal year in an amount up to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the immediately preceding fiscal year, so long as, both immediately before and after giving effect to such payment, (A) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of and immediately after giving effect to the payment of such dividends, and (B) the Borrower is in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants in Section 6.09 at such times;

The Fair Market Value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by this Section 6.01 will be determined by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower and, if greater than $10,000,000, set forth in an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.01, if a proposed Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Restricted Payments described in clauses (1) through (22) of subparagraph (b) of this Section 6.01, or is entitled to be made pursuant to subparagraph (a) of this Section 6.01, Parent will be entitled to classify on the date of its payment or later reclassify such Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this Section 6.01.

117

For the avoidance of doubt, the payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Indebtedness (including any Convertible Indebtedness) of Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary of Parent that is not contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations, shall not constitute Restricted Payment and therefore will not be subject to any of the restrictions described in this Section 6.01.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, if a Restricted Payment is made (or any other action is taken or omitted under this Agreement or any other Loan Document) at a time when a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and such Default or Event of Default is subsequently cured, any Default or Event of Default arising from the making of such Restricted Payment (or the taking or omission of such other action) during the existence of such Default or Event of Default shall simultaneously be deemed cured.

SECTION 6.02. Restrictions on Ability of Restricted Subsidiaries to Pay Dividends and Make Certain Other Payments.

(a) Parent will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries other than the Borrower to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any such Restricted Subsidiary to:

(2) pay any Indebtedness owed to Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(3) make loans or advances to Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

(4) sell, lease or transfer any of its properties or assets to Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

(b) The restrictions in Section 6.02(a) will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

(2) this Agreement and the Collateral Documents, including any Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement;

(3) agreements governing other Indebtedness or shares of preferred stock; provided, that if such Restricted Subsidiary incurring or issuing such Indebtedness or shares of preferred stock is not a Guarantor, the restrictions therein are either (in each case, as determined in good faith by a senior financial officer of Parent or the Borrower)

118

(A) not materially more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in this Agreement or (B)(i) customary for instruments of such type and (ii) will not materially adversely impact the ability of the Borrower to make required principal and interest payments on the Loans or any reimbursement obligation with respect to LC Disbursements;

(4) applicable law, rule, regulation or order;

(5) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (including by way of merger, consolidation or amalgamation of Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired; customary provisions in contracts, licenses, leases and asset sale agreements entered into in the Ordinary Course of Business;

(6) purchase money obligations for property acquired in the Ordinary Course of Business and Capital Lease Obligations that impose restrictions on the property (or proceeds thereof) purchased or leased of the nature described in clause (4) of Section 6.02(a);

(10) provisions limiting the disposition or distribution of assets or property or loans or advances in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, sale-leaseback and other lease agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements (including agreements entered into in connection with any Investment), which limitation is applicable only to the assets or the joint venture entity, as applicable, that are the subject of such agreements or otherwise in the Ordinary Course of Business;

(11) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the Ordinary Course of Business;

(12) any instrument or agreement entered into in connection with (or in anticipation of) any full or partial “spin-off” or similar transactions;

(13) any encumbrance or restriction of the type referred to in clauses (1), (2), (3) and (4) of Section 6.02(a) imposed by any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, extensions, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in clauses (1) through (13) of this Section 6.02(b); provided that such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, extension, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing is, in the good faith judgment of a senior financial officer of the Borrower, taken together as a whole, not materially more restrictive with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in (A) the dividend or other payment restrictions prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, extension, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing or (B) this Agreement; and

(14) any encumbrance or restriction existing under or by reason of Indebtedness or other contractual requirements of a Receivables Subsidiary or any Standard Securitization Undertaking, in each case, in connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction; provided that such restrictions apply only to such Receivables Subsidiary.

SECTION 6.03. [Reserved].

SECTION 6.04. Disposition of Collateral. Neither the Borrower nor any Grantor shall Dispose of any Collateral (including, without limitation, by way of any Sale of a Grantor) except that any Disposition shall be permitted (i) in the case of a Permitted Disposition or (ii) in the case of any Disposition of Collateral that is not a Permitted Disposition; provided that in the case of any Disposition of Collateral that is not a Permitted Disposition (A) upon consummation of any such Disposition, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (B) either (I) the Collateral Coverage Ratio is not less than 1.6 to 1.0 after giving effect to such Disposition (including any deposit of any Net Proceeds received upon consummation thereof in the Collateral Proceeds Account subject to an Account Control Agreement); (II) the Borrower shall (1) grant (or cause another Grantor to grant) a security interest on additional assets pledged as Additional Collateral to secure the Obligations and/or (2) prepay or cause to be prepaid the Loans and (if required by its terms) any Pari Passu Senior Secured Debt (on a ratable basis with the Loans) such that following such actions in clauses (1) and/or (2) above, the Collateral Coverage Ratio, recalculated by adding the Appraised Value of any such Additional Collateral and any such Net Proceeds in clause (i) of the definition of Collateral Coverage Ratio and subtracting any such prepaid Loans and prepaid Pari Passu Senior Secured Debt from clause (ii) of the definition of Collateral Coverage Ratio, shall be no less than 1.6 to 1.0; provided that in the case of any Disposition that is not a voluntary Disposition of Collateral by the Borrower or such Grantor, the Borrower shall have up to 45 days after such Disposition to accomplish the actions contemplated by this clause (II) or (III) the Borrower shall comply with its obligations set forth in Section 2.12(a), (C) with respect to any voluntary Disposition of Collateral consisting of Pledged Route Authorities, Pledged Slots utilized by the Borrower to provide any Scheduled Service or Pledged Foreign Gate Leaseholds necessary for the Borrower to provide any Scheduled Service that is not a Permitted Disposition, the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Required Lenders and (D) the Borrower shall promptly provide to the Administrative Agent a Collateral Coverage Ratio Certificate calculating the Collateral Coverage Ratio giving effect to such Disposition and any actions taken pursuant to clause (B)(II) above.

ARTICLE VIII

THE AGENTS

SECTION 8.01. Administration by Agents.

(a) Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints each Agent as its agent and irrevocably authorizes such Agent, in such capacity, to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are delegated to each Agent by the terms hereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent may perform any of its respective duties hereunder by or through its officers, directors, employees or affiliates.

(b) Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Lender hereby authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, where applicable:

(i) (A) in connection with the sale or other disposition or request for release in compliance with Section 6.09(c) of any asset that is part of the Collateral of the Borrower or any other Grantor, as the case may be, to the extent permitted by the terms of this Agreement, to release a Lien granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on such asset and (B) (x) upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnification obligations) at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (y) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by this Agreement) or (z) as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant Collateral Documents, to release a Lien granted to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on any asset that is part of the Collateral of the Borrower or any other Grantor, as the case may be;

(ii) to determine that the cost to the Borrower or any other Grantor, as the case may be, is disproportionate to the benefit to be realized by the Secured Parties by perfecting a Lien in a given asset or group of assets included in the Collateral and that the Borrower or such other Grantor, as the case may be, should not be required to perfect such Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties;

(iii) to enter into the other Loan Documents on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and to perform its respective obligations thereunder;

(iv) to execute any documents or instruments necessary to release any Guarantor from the guarantees provided herein pursuant to Section 9.05;

(v) to enter into the Collateral Documents, any Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement (and/or subordination agreements on terms reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent) and in each case to perform its obligations thereunder and to take such action and to exercise the powers, rights and remedies granted to it thereunder and with respect thereto; and

129

(vi) to enter into any other agreements in the forms contemplated hereby or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent granting Liens to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on any assets of the Borrower or any other Grantor to secure the Obligations.

(c) The Collateral Agent may appoint the Administrative Agent as its agent for the purposes of holding any Collateral and/or perfecting the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein and for the purpose of taking such other action with respect to the Collateral as such Agents may from time to time agree.

(d) In the event any property described in clause (c) of the definition of “Additional Collateral” is to be pledged by the Borrower or any other Grantor as Additional Collateral, the Collateral Agent will appoint Wilmington Trust Company or another trustee designated by the Borrower and reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent to serve as the security trustee under the applicable Aircraft Security Agreement with respect to such Additional Collateral, and in such event, references herein to the “Collateral Agent” with respect to such Additional Collateral and such Aircraft Security Agreement, as the context requires, shall be deemed to refer to such security trustee. The Collateral Agent will cause such trustee to join any Intercreditor Agreements and/or any Other Intercreditor Agreements.

SECTION 8.02. Rights of Agents. Each institution serving as an 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 an Agent, and such bank and its respective Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act in any advisor capacity, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, Parent or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate of Parent as if it were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 8.03. Liability of Agents.

(a) No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such 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 10.08 or in the other Loan Documents), (iii) except as expressly set forth herein, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower, Parent or any of Parent’s Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the institution serving as an Agent or any of its respective Affiliates in any capacity and (iv) no Agent will be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law,

130

including for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect. No Agent shall 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 10.08 or in the other Loan Documents) or in the absence of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by the Borrower, Parent or a Lender, and no Agent shall be responsible for, or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into, (A) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, (C) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein, (D) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement or any other agreement, instrument or document or (E) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to each Agent.

(b) Each 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. Each 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. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower or Parent), 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.

(c) Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it (including the Collateral Agent, in the case of the Administrative Agent). Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers through its Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each 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 or Collateral Agent.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Left Lead Arranger, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agents or Joint Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Lender.

131

(e) No Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the applicable Grantor or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Agents in this Article VIII or in any of the Collateral Documents, it being understood and agreed that (as between the Collateral Agent and the Lenders) in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(f) Any assignor of a Loan or seller of a participation hereunder shall be entitled to rely conclusively on a representation of the assignee Lender or Participant in the relevant Assignment and Acceptance or participation agreement, as applicable, that such assignee or purchaser is not a Disqualified Institution. No Agent shall have any responsibility or liability for monitoring the list or identities of, or enforcing provisions relating to, Disqualified Institutions.

SECTION 8.04. Reimbursement and Indemnification. Each Lender agrees (a) to reimburse on demand each Agent for such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage of any expenses and fees incurred for the benefit of the Lenders under this Agreement and any of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, and any other expense incurred in connection with the operations or enforcement thereof, not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Guarantors and (b) to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent and any of its Related Parties, on demand, in the amount equal to such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower or the Guarantors (except such as shall result from its gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction). Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall not be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one primary counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Joint Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners and, only with respect to fees and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of the Loan Documents, one local counsel for each relevant jurisdiction, and, in each case, if necessary in the case of an actual conflict of interest, an additional counsel in each such applicable jurisdiction.

SECTION 8.05. Successor Agents. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor agent as provided in this paragraph, (i) each Agent may be removed by the Borrower or the Required Lenders if such Agent or a controlling affiliate of such Agent is a Defaulting Lender and (ii) any Agent may resign upon ten (10) days’ notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such removal or resignation by any Agent, the

132

Required Lenders shall appoint, with the consent (provided that no Event of Default or Default has occurred and is continuing) of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed if such successor is a commercial bank with consolidated combined capital and surplus of at least $5,000,000,000), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, with the consent (provided that no Event of Default or Default has occurred or is continuing) of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor Agent which shall be a bank institution with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank, in each case, with consolidated combined capital and surplus of at least $5,000,000,000). Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring 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 an Agent.

SECTION 8.06. Independent Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon either 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 related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 8.07. Advances and Payments.

(a) On the date of each Loan, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (but not obligated) to advance, for the account of each of the Lenders, the amount of the Loan to be made by it in accordance with its Term Loan Commitment or Revolving Commitment, as applicable, hereunder. Should the Administrative Agent do so, each of the Lenders agrees forthwith to reimburse the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the amount so advanced on its behalf by the Administrative Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate if not so reimbursed on the date due from and including such date but not including the date of reimbursement.

(b) Any amounts received by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement (other than amounts to which the Administrative Agent is entitled pursuant to Sections 2.19, 2.20, 8.04 and 10.04), the application of which is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement, shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.17(b). All amounts to be paid to a Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be credited to that Lender, after collection by the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in that Lender’s correspondent account with the Administrative Agent, as such Lender and the Administrative Agent shall from time to time agree.

133

SECTION 8.08. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that, except to the extent this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender, if it shall, through the exercise either by it or any of its banking Affiliates of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower or a Guarantor, including, but not limited to, a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim and received by such Lender (or any of its banking Affiliates) under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of its Loans or LC Exposure as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Loans or LC Exposure is proportionately less than the unpaid portion of the Loans or LC Exposure of any other Lender (a) it shall promptly purchase at par (and shall be deemed to have thereupon purchased) from such other Lender a participation in the Loans or LC Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s Loans and LC Exposure and its participation in Loans and LC Exposure of the other Lenders shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans then outstanding and LC Exposure as the principal amount of its Loans and LC Exposure prior to the obtaining of such payment was to the principal amount of all Loans outstanding and LC Exposure prior to the obtaining of such payment and (b) such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that the Lenders share such payment pro rata; provided that if any such non-pro-rata payment is thereafter recovered or otherwise set aside, such purchase of participations shall be rescinded (without interest). The provisions of this Section 8.08 shall not be construed to apply to (a) any payment made by the Borrower or a Guarantor pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or (b) any payment obtained by any Lender as consideration for the assignment or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or other Obligations owed to it.

SECTION 8.09. Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, each Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any withholding tax applicable to such payment. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that any Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason, or any Agent has paid over to the Internal Revenue Service applicable withholding tax relating to a payment to a Lender but no deduction has been made from such payment, without duplication of any indemnification obligations set forth in Section 8.04, such Lender shall indemnify such Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by such Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with any expenses incurred.

SECTION 8.10. Appointment by Secured Parties. Each Secured Party that is not a party to this Agreement shall be deemed to have appointed each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent as its agent under the Loan Documents in accordance with the terms of this Article VIII and to have acknowledged that the provisions of this Article VIII apply to such Secured Party mutatis mutandis as though it were a party hereto (and any acceptance by such Secured Party of the benefits of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed an acknowledgment of the foregoing).

134

SECTION 8.11. Delivery of Information. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver to any Lender originals or copies of any documents, instruments, notices, communications or other information received by the Administrative Agent from any Loan Party, any Subsidiary, the Required Lenders, any Lender or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document except (i) as specifically provided in this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (ii) subject to all confidentiality provisions and other obligations of the Lenders under the Loan Documents, as specifically requested from time to time in writing by any Lender with respect to a specific document, instrument, notice or other written communication received by and in the possession of the Administrative Agent at the time of receipt of such request and then only in accordance with such specific request.

ARTICLE IX

GUARANTY

SECTION 9.01. Guaranty.

(a) Each of the Guarantors unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the due and punctual payment by the Borrower of the Obligations (including interest accruing on and after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or of reorganization of the obligor whether or not post filing interest is allowed in such proceeding) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations” and the obligations of each Guarantor in respect thereof, its “Guaranty Obligations”). Each of the Guarantors further agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from such Guarantor, and it will remain bound upon this Guaranty notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations. The Obligations of the Guarantors shall be joint and several. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its guaranty hereunder is a primary obligation of such Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety.

(b) Anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall in no event exceed the amount that can be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable law, including applicable federal and state laws relating to the insolvency of debtors; provided that, to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, it is the intent of the parties hereto that the rights of contribution of each Guarantor provided in Section 9.02 be included as an asset of the respective Guarantor in determining the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder.

(c) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors waives presentation to, demand for payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Guarantor, and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall not, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be affected by (i) the failure of any Agent or a Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Borrower or any other Guarantor under the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any provision hereof or thereof; (iii) any rescission, waiver, compromise, acceleration, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of any of the Loan Documents other than pursuant to a written agreement in compliance with

135

Section 10.08; (iv) the release, exchange, waiver or foreclosure of any security held by the Collateral Agent for the Obligations or any of them; (v) by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of the Guarantors or would otherwise operate as a discharge of the Guarantors as a matter of law; or (vi) the release or substitution of any Collateral or any other Guarantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors further agrees that this Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not just of collection.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Guarantors hereby waives any defense that it might have based on a failure to remain informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and of any other Guarantor and any circumstances affecting the ability of the Borrower to perform under this Agreement, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Agent or a Lender to any security held for payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit, account or credit on the books of any Agent or a Lender in favor of the Borrower or any other Guarantor, or to any other Person.

(e) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor’s guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, legality, regularity or enforceability of the Obligations or any other instrument evidencing any Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, or extent of any collateral therefor or by any other circumstance relating to the Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to this Guaranty (other than payment in full in cash of the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (other than those that constitute unasserted contingent indemnification obligations)). Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of the Lenders makes any representation or warranty in respect to any such circumstances or shall have any duty or responsibility whatsoever to any Guarantor in respect of the management and maintenance of the Obligations.

(f) Upon the occurrence of the Obligations becoming due and payable (by acceleration or otherwise), the Lenders shall be entitled to prompt and complete payment of such Obligations by the Guarantors upon written demand by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.02. Right of Contribution. Each Guarantor hereby agrees amongst themselves only that to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share (based, to the maximum extent permitted by law, on the respective Adjusted Net Worths (as defined below) of the Guarantors on the date the respective payment is made) of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Guarantor hereunder that has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 9.04. The provisions of this Section 9.02 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties, and each Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder. “Adjusted Net Worth” of any Guarantor shall mean at any time, the greater of (x) $0 and (y) the amount by which the fair saleable value of such Guarantor’s assets on the date of the respective payment hereunder exceeds its debts and other liabilities (including contingent liabilities, but without giving effect to any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents) on such date.

136

SECTION 9.03. Continuation and Reinstatement, etc. Each Guarantor further agrees that its guaranty hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, any Lender or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or a Guarantor, or otherwise.

SECTION 9.04. Subrogation. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder, all rights of such Guarantor against the Borrower arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation or otherwise, shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all the Obligations (including interest accruing on and after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or of reorganization of an obligor whether or not post-filing interest is allowed in such proceeding). If any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor for the account of the Borrower relating to the Obligations prior to payment in full of the Obligations, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to be credited and applied to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

SECTION 9.05. Discharge of Guaranty.

(a) In the event of any sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of any Guarantor (other than Parent), by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, or a sale or other disposition of all Capital Stock of any Guarantor (other than Parent), in each case to a Person that is not (either before or after giving effect to such transactions) Parent or a Restricted Subsidiary of Parent or the merger or consolidation of a Guarantor with or into the Borrower or another Guarantor, in each case, in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, then such Guarantor (in the event of a sale or other disposition, by way of merger, consolidation or otherwise, of all of the Capital Stock of such Guarantor) or the corporation acquiring the property (in the event of a sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of such Guarantor) will be automatically released and relieved of any obligations under its Guarantee of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(b) Upon designation of any Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Guarantor will be automatically released and relieved of any obligations under its Guarantee of the Guaranteed Obligations. In addition, upon the request of the Borrower, the guarantee of any Guarantor that is or becomes an Immaterial Subsidiary, a Receivables Subsidiary or an Excluded Subsidiary shall be promptly released; provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall result therefrom and (ii) the Borrower shall have delivered an Officer’s Certificate certifying that such Subsidiary is an Immaterial Subsidiary, a Receivables Subsidiary or an Excluded Subsidiary, as applicable; provided, further that a Subsidiary that is considered not to be an Immaterial Subsidiary solely pursuant to clause (1) of the proviso of the definition thereof shall, solely for purposes of this clause (b), be considered an Immaterial Subsidiary so long as any applicable guarantee, pledge or other obligation of such Subsidiary with respect to any Junior Secured Debt shall be irrevocably released and discharged substantially simultaneously with the release of such guarantee hereunder.

137

(c) The Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver, at the Borrower’s expense, such documents as the Borrower or any such Guarantor may reasonably request to evidence the release of the guaranty of such Guarantor provided herein.

(d) Each Guarantor will be automatically released and relieved of any obligations under its Guarantee of the Guaranteed Obligations upon the first date on which all of the Loans and Obligations (other than any Obligations owing to a Non-Lender Secured Party) then due and owing shall have been satisfied by payment in full in cash, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (except for Letters of Credit that have been Cash Collateralized or otherwise provided for in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) and the Commitments shall be terminated.

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 (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section 10.02) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders 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, in the ordinary course of business and in accordance with applicable law, may assign (other than to any Defaulting Lender, Disqualified Institution or natural person) 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 Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it), pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(A) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment (I) if the assignee is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender, in each case so long as such assignee is an Eligible Assignee, (II) of Term Loans to the Borrower pursuant to Section 10.02(g) and (III) of Loans made pursuant to Section 2.18(b) or 2.26(a);

139

(B) the Borrower; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment (I) other than with respect to an assignment to any Defaulting Lender, Disqualified Institution or natural person, if an Event of Default under Section 7.01(b), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing or (II) if the assignee is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender, in each case so long as such assignee is an Eligible Assignee; provided, further, that the Borrower’s consent will be deemed given with respect to a proposed assignment if no response is received within ten (10) Business Days after having received a written request from such Lender pursuant to this Section 10.02(b)(i)(B); and

(C) each Issuing Lender; provided that no consent of any Issuing Lender shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan.

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

(A) any assignment of any portion of the Total Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loans, LC Exposure and Term Loans shall be made to an Eligible Assignee;

(B) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Commitment or Loans, the amount of such Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000, and after giving effect to such assignment, the portion of the Loan or Commitment held by the assigning Lender of the same tranche as the assigned portion of the Loan or Commitment shall not be less than $5,000,000, in each case unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required with respect to such assignment if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that any such assignment shall be in increments of $500,000 in excess of the minimum amount described above;

(C) 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;

(D) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (unless waived by the Administrative Agent in any given case) for the account of the Administrative Agent; provided that for concurrent assignments to two or more Approved Funds such assignment fee shall be required to be paid only once in respect of and at the time of such assignment;

(E) the assignee, if it was not a Lender immediately prior to such assignment, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in a form as the Administrative Agent may require; and

(F) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any assignment of any Term Loans to the Borrower shall be subject to the requirements of Section 10.02(g).

140

For the purposes of this Section 10.02(b), the term “Approved Fund” shall mean, with respect to any Lender, 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 Business and that is administered or managed by (a) such Lender, (b) an Affiliate of such Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages such Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to make assignments under this Agreement to any Defaulting Lender, Disqualified Institution or natural person and any such assignment shall be void ab initio, except to the extent the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender have consented to such assignment in writing (in which case such Lender will not be considered a Defaulting Lender, Disqualified Institution or natural person solely for that particular assignment).

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section 10.02, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Revolving Lender and/or a Term Lender, as the case may be, under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance 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 2.14, 2.16 and 10.04). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.02 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 10.02.

(iv) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements 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 Guarantors, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders 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, the Issuing Lenders and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein no assignment may be made hereunder to any Defaulting Lender, Disqualified Institution or natural person or any of their respective subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (v). Any assignment by a Lender to any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (v) shall be deemed null and void ab initio and the Register shall be modified to reflect a reversal of such assignment, and the Borrower shall be entitled to pursue any remedy available to it (whether at law or in equity, including specific performance to unwind such assignment) against the Lender and such Person.

141

(vi) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment will be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and each other Revolving Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Aggregate Exposure Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder becomes effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest will be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(c) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire in a form as the Administrative Agent may require (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.02 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 10.02, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(d) or (e), 2.04(a) or (b), 8.04 or 10.04(d), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(d) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, sell participations (other than to any Defaulting Lender, Disqualified Institution or natural person) to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (D) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders 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. 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 to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any

142

amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.08(a) that affects such Participant. Subject to Section 10.02(d)(ii), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of (and shall have the related obligations under) Sections 2.14 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.02(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to the requirements of Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement or any Loan Document), except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender, the Borrower, a Guarantor and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to sell participations under this Agreement to any Defaulting Lender, Disqualified Institution or natural person and any such participation shall be void ab initio, except to the extent that the Borrower has consented to such participation in writing (in which case such Lender will not be considered a Defaulting Lender, Disqualified Institution or natural person solely for that particular participation). Any attempted participation which does not comply with Section 10.02 shall be null and void.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant and shall be subject to the terms of Section 2.18(a). The Lender selling the participation to such Participant shall be subject to the terms of Section 2.18(b) if such Participant requests compensation or additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Sections 2.16(f), 2.16(g) and 2.16(h) as though it were a Lender.

(e) 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 any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section 10.02 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.

143

(f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.02, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower or any of the Guarantors furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of the Guarantors; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant provides to the Administrative Agent its agreement in writing to be bound for the benefit of the Borrower by either the provisions of Section 10.03 or other provisions at least as restrictive as Section 10.03.

(g) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans of any Class to the Borrower in accordance with Section 10.02(b) pursuant to a Dutch Auction or open market purchase by the Borrower; provided that:

(i) the assigning Lender and the Borrower purchasing such Lender’s Term Loans, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance;

(ii) any Term Loans assigned to the Borrower shall be automatically and permanently cancelled upon the effectiveness of such assignment and will thereafter no longer be outstanding for any purpose hereunder;

(iii) no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing; and

(iv) the assignment to the Borrower and cancellation of Term Loans shall not constitute a mandatory or voluntary payment for purposes of Section 2.12 or 2.13 and shall not be subject to Section 8.08, but the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans purchased pursuant to this Section 10.02(g), and each principal repayment installment with respect to the Term Loans of such Class shall be reduced pro rata by the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of such Class purchased hereunder.

Each Lender making an assignment to the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such assignment, (1) the Borrower then may have, and later may come into possession of, information regarding the Term Loans or the Loan Parties hereunder that is not known to such Lender and that may be material to a decision by such Lender to assign the Term Loans (“Excluded Information”), (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, made its own analysis and determination to enter into such assignment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information and (3) none of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and their respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information. Each Lender entering into such an assignment further acknowledges that the Excluded Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.

144

(h) No assignment or participation made or purported to be made to any assignee or Participant shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Borrower if it would require the Borrower to make any filing with any Governmental Authority or qualify any Loan under the laws of any jurisdiction, and the Borrower shall be entitled to request and receive such information and assurances as it may reasonably request from any Lender or any assignee or Participant to determine whether any such filing or qualification is required or whether any assignment or participation is otherwise in accordance with applicable law.

(i) If the Borrower wishes to replace any Loans under any Facility hereunder with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three (3) Business Days’ advance notice to the Lenders under such Facility, instead of prepaying the Loan to be replaced, to (i) require the Lenders under such Facility to assign such Loans to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 10.08. Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders under such Facility in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid by the Borrower), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to Section 10.04(b). By receiving such purchase price, the Lenders under such Facility shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Loans under such Facility pursuant to the terms of the form of the Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this clause (i) are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.

(j) In connection with any replacement of a Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, 2.26(a), 10.08(b) or other provision hereof (collectively, a “Replaceable Lender”), if any such Replaceable Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance reflecting such replacement within one (1) Business Day of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance to such Replaceable Lender, then such Replaceable Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance without any action on the part of the Replaceable Lender.

SECTION 10.03. Confidentiality. Each Agent and each Lender agrees to keep confidential any information (i) delivered or made available by Parent, the Borrower or any of the Guarantors or any of their respective Subsidiaries or (ii) obtained by any Agent or such Lender based on a review of the books and records of Parent or the Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries to them, in accordance with their customary procedures, from anyone other than persons employed or retained by each Agent or such Lender who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Loans, and who are advised by such Lender of the confidential nature of such information; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Agent or any Lender from disclosing such information (a) to any of its Affiliates and their respective agents and advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information under this Section 10.03 and instructed to keep such information confidential) or to any other Lender, (b) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (c) upon the request or demand of any

145

regulatory agency or authority (including any self-regulatory authority), (d) which has been publicly disclosed other than as a result of a disclosure by any Agent or any Lender which is not permitted by this Agreement, (e) in connection with any litigation to which any Agent, any Lender or their respective Affiliates may be a party to the extent reasonably required under applicable rules of discovery, (f) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (g) to such Lender’s legal counsel and independent auditors, (h) on a confidential basis to any rating agency in connection with rating Parent and its Subsidiaries or any Facility, (i) with the consent of the Borrower, (j) to any actual or proposed participant or assignee of all or part of its rights hereunder or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, in each case, subject to the proviso in Section 10.02(f) (with any reference to any assignee or participant set forth in such proviso being deemed to include a reference to such contractual counterparty for purposes of this Section 10.03(j)), (k) to the extent that such information is or was received by such Lender from a third party that is not, to such Lender’s knowledge, subject to confidentiality obligations to the Borrower and (l) to the extent that such information is independently developed by such Lender. If any Lender is in any manner requested or required to disclose any of the information delivered or made available to it by the Borrower or any of the Guarantors under clauses (b), (c) (unless such disclosure is made in connection with a routine examination or audit) or (e) of this Section 10.03, such Lender will, to the extent permitted by law, provide the Borrower or Guarantor with prompt notice, to the extent reasonable, so that the Borrower or Guarantor may seek, at its sole expense, a protective order or other appropriate remedy or may waive compliance with this Section 10.03.

SECTION 10.04. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) (i) The Borrower shall pay or reimburse: (A) all reasonable fees and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses of each Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers and Bookrunners (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of White & Case LLP, special counsel to the Agents) associated with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, and the preparation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and (in the case of the Administrative Agent) any amendments, modifications or supplements of the provisions hereof requested by the Borrower (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) and the reasonable fees and expenses of any trustee appointed pursuant to Section 8.01(d) in connection with its services under the applicable Aircraft Security Agreement, as separately agreed between the Borrower and such trustee; and (B) in connection with any enforcement of the Loan Documents, all fees and documented out-of-pocket expenses of each Agent and any trustee appointed pursuant to Section 8.01(d) (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel for the Agents and such trustee and one local counsel and one regulatory counsel, in each case, for each relevant jurisdiction, and, in each case, if necessary in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, an additional local and regulatory counsel in each such applicable jurisdiction) and each Lender (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel for such Lender) incurred during the continuance of a Default and (C) all reasonable, documented, out-of-pocket costs, expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges (including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel for the Collateral Agent) incurred by the Collateral Agent or any trustee appointed pursuant to Section 8.01(d) in connection with any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest as required by the applicable

146

Collateral Document or incurred in connection with any release or addition of Collateral after the Closing Date; provided, however, that, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower shall not, in connection with this Section 10.04(a), be responsible hereunder for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one such firm of separate counsel and one regulatory counsel, in addition to any local counsel.

(ii) All payments or reimbursements pursuant to the foregoing clause (a)(i) shall be paid within thirty (30) days of written demand together with back-up documentation supporting such reimbursement request.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent, any trustee appointed pursuant to Section 8.01(d), the Issuing Lenders 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 and related expenses, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one firm counsel for all Indemnitees and, if necessary, one regulatory counsel and one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (including any investigating, preparing for or defending any such claims, actions, suits, investigations or proceedings, whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation in which such Indemnitee is a party), whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto and whether or not any such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding is brought by the Borrower, its equity holders, its Affiliates, its creditors or any other person, relating to (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit) or (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to, or asserted against, Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that the foregoing indemnity will not, as to any Indemnitee (or any of its Related Parties), be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of, or material breach of any Loan Document by, such Indemnitee (or of any of its Related Parties), and in such case such Indemnitee (and its Related Parties) shall repay the Borrower the amount of any expenses previously reimbursed by the Borrower in connection with any such loss, claims, damages, expenses or liability to such Indemnitee and, to the extent not repaid by any of them, such Indemnitee’s Related Parties not a party to this Agreement or (y) result from any proceeding between or among Indemnitees that does not involve an action or omission by the Borrower or its Affiliates (other than claims against any Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an Agent, trustee or Joint Lead Arranger or any other similar role under the Facilities (excluding its role as a Lender)). This Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim. Neither the Borrower nor any Indemnitee shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages hereunder; provided that

147

nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Borrower’s indemnity or reimbursement obligations under this Section 10.04 to the extent such indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(c) In case any action or proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnitee in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Borrower under the provisions of any Loan Document, such Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing and the Borrower shall, if the Borrower desires to do so, assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee but only if (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) such action or proceeding does not involve any risk of criminal liability or material risk of material civil money penalties being imposed on such Indemnitee. The Borrower shall not enter into any settlement of any action or proceeding unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitees from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such action or proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to fault or culpability. The failure to so notify the Borrower shall not affect any obligations the Borrower may have to such Indemnitee under the Loan Documents or otherwise other than to the extent that the Borrower is materially adversely affected by such failure. The Indemnitees shall have the right to employ separate counsel in such action or proceeding and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnitees unless: (i) the Borrower has agreed to pay such fees and expenses or (ii) the Indemnitees shall have been advised in writing by counsel that under prevailing ethical standards there may be a conflict between the positions of the Borrower and the Indemnitees in conducting the defense of such action or proceeding or that there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnitees different from or in addition to those available to the Borrower, in which case, if the Indemnitees notify the Borrower in writing that they elect to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Borrower, the Borrower shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf of the Indemnitees; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not, in connection with any one such action or proceeding or separate but substantially similar or related actions or proceedings in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be responsible hereunder for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one such firm of separate counsel, in addition to any regulatory counsel and any local counsel. The Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action or proceeding effected without the written consent of the Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(d) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid to an Issuing Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 10.04, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such portion of the unpaid amount equal to such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought); 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 applicable Issuing Lender in its capacity as such.

148

(e) To the extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, 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 Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

SECTION 10.05. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York and appellate courts from either of them, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall, to the extent permitted by law, be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

(c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in Section 10.05(b). Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 10.06. No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.

SECTION 10.07. Extension of Maturity. Should any payment of principal of or interest or any other amount due hereunder become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of principal, interest shall be payable thereon at the rate herein specified during such extension.

149

SECTION 10.08. Amendments, etc.

(a) Except as set forth in clause (d)(iii) below, no modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Collateral Document (other than the Account Control Agreement), and no consent to any departure by the Borrower or any Guarantor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders or Required Class Lenders (as applicable) (or signed by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment shall without the prior written consent of:

(i) each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (A) increase the Commitment of any Lender or extend the termination date of the Commitment of any Lender (it being understood that a waiver of an Event of Default shall not constitute an increase in or extension of the termination date of the Commitment of a Lender), or (B) reduce the principal amount of any Loan, any reimbursement obligation in respect of any Letter of Credit, or the rate of interest payable on any Loan (provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary for a waiver of default interest referred to in Section 2.08), or extend any date for the payment of principal, interest or Fees hereunder or reduce any Fees payable hereunder or extend the final maturity of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder, (C) amend this Section 10.08 with the effect of changing the number or percentage of Lenders that must approve any modification, amendment, waiver or consent, or (D) amend or modify the terms of Section 2.17(e) in any manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby;

(ii) all of the Lenders, (A) amend or modify any provision of this Agreement which provides for the unanimous consent or approval of the Lenders, (B) release all or substantially all of the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent contemplated by Section 6.09(c) on the date hereof or by the terms of the Collateral Documents), or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors (except to the extent contemplated by Section 9.05) or (C) amend or modify the definition of “Required Lenders”; and

(iii) all Revolving Lenders, change the definition of the term “Required Revolving Lenders” or the percentage of Lenders which shall be required for Revolving Lenders to take any action hereunder.

(b) No such amendment or modification shall adversely affect the rights and obligations of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender hereunder without its prior written consent.

(c) No notice to or demand on the Borrower or any Guarantor shall entitle the Borrower or any Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. Each assignee under Section 10.02(b) shall be bound by any amendment, modification, waiver, or consent authorized as provided herein, and any consent by a Lender shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring an interest on the Loans held by such Lender. No amendment to this Agreement shall be effective against the Borrower or any Guarantor unless signed by the Borrower or such Guarantor, as the case may be.

150

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), (i) in the event that the Borrower requests that this Agreement be modified or amended in a manner which would require the unanimous consent of all of the Lenders or the consent of all Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby or all the Lenders with respect to a certain class of Loans and, in each case, such modification or amendment is agreed to by the Required Lenders, Required Revolving Lenders or Required Class Lenders, as applicable, or the relevant affected Lender, as the case may be, then the Borrower (A) may replace any non-consenting Lender with respect to all or a portion of its Loans or Commitments, as applicable, in accordance with Section 10.02; provided that such amendment or modification can be effected as a result of the assignment contemplated by such Section (together with all other such assignments required by the Borrower to be made pursuant to this clause (i)); provided, further, that any assignment made pursuant to this Section 10.08(d) shall be subject to the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 10.02(b)(ii)(D) or (B) upon notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay the Loans and, at the Borrower’s option, terminate all or a portion of the Commitments of such non-consenting Lender in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to Sections 2.13(d) and 10.04(b) and reallocate the LC Exposure of such non-consenting Lender under Section 2.26(d) (as if such Lender were a Defaulting Lender); provided that all obligations of the Borrower owing to the non-consenting Lender relating to such Commitments, Loans and participations so prepaid or terminated shall be paid in full by the Borrower to such non-consenting Lender concurrently with such prepayment and termination; and provided, further, that no such termination of Commitments shall be permitted pursuant to this clause (B) if, after giving effect thereto and to any Revolving Extension of Credit, any prepayment of any Loan and any maturity of any Letter of Credit on the effective date thereof, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans then outstanding, when added to the sum of the then outstanding LC Exposure (other than Commitments that have been Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 2.02(j)), would exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect; (ii) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that the Commitment and the outstanding Loans or other extensions of credit held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders); (iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any modifications or amendments under any Increase Joinder entered into in connection with Section 2.27 or any Extension Amendment entered in accordance with Section 2.28 or any Replacement Loans entered into in accordance with Section 10.08(e) may be made without the consent of the Required Lenders and (iv) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days after written notice thereof to the Lenders.

151

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Loans (as defined below) as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (x) to permit the refinancing, replacement or modification of all or a portion of the outstanding Term Loans of any tranche (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche (“Replacement Term Loans”) or the refinancing, replacement or modification of all or a portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans of any tranche (“Refinanced Revolving Loans” and, together with the Refinanced Term Loans, the “Refinanced Loans”) with a replacement revolving loan tranche (“Replacement Revolving Loans” and, together with the “Replacement Term Loans,” the “Replacement Loans”) hereunder and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of Required Lenders, Required Class Lenders, Required Term Lenders in Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable; 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 Margin for such Replacement Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Loans, (c) in the case of Replacement Term Loans, the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Refinanced Term 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 applicable Term 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 the Lenders of such Refinanced Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the Latest Maturity Date in effect immediately prior to such refinancing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrower as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of Replacement Loans and such technical 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 Replacement Loans.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement (whether pursuant to Section 2.27 or otherwise) 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 Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders, Required Revolving Lenders and/or Required Term Lenders, as applicable.

(g) In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.01 or Section 10.08(a), following the consummation of any Extension pursuant to Section 2.28, no modification, amendment or waiver (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any forbearance agreement entered into with respect to this Agreement) shall limit the right of any non-extending Lender (each, a “Non-Extending Lender”) to enforce its right to receive payment of amounts due and owing to such Non-Extending Lender on the applicable Revolving Facility

152

Maturity Date and/or Term Loan Maturity Date, as the case may be, applicable to the Loans of such Non-Extending Lenders without the prior written consent of Non-Extending Lenders that would constitute the Required Class Lenders with respect to any affected Class of such Loans if the Non-Extending Lenders were the only Lenders hereunder at the time.

(h) It is understood that the amendment provisions of this Section 10.08 shall not apply to extensions of the Revolving Facility Maturity Date, the Term Loan Maturity Date or the maturity date of any tranche of Revolving Commitments, in each case, made in accordance with Section 2.28.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, may be amended (or amended and restated) by each Agent and the Borrower to comply with any collateral trust agreement entered into after the Closing Date among the Borrower, the other Grantors, the Administrative Agent, the collateral trustee party thereto and the other financial institutions party thereto, including, without limitation, amending (or amending and restating) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to provide for the assignment of the security interest in the Collateral from the Collateral Agent to such collateral trustee.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), any Collateral Document may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified without the consent of any Lender (i) to add assets (or categories of assets) to the Collateral covered by such Collateral Document, as contemplated by the definition of “Additional Collateral” set forth in Section 1.01 or (ii) to remove any asset or type or category of asset (including after-acquired assets of that type or category) from the Collateral covered by such Collateral Document to the extent the release thereof is permitted by Section 6.09(c) or constitutes a Permitted Disposition.

SECTION 10.09. Severability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, 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 10.10. Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience only and are not to affect the construction of or be taken into consideration in interpreting this Agreement.

SECTION 10.11. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement 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 making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.04 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 Letters of Credit and the Commitments, or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

153

SECTION 10.12. Execution in 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 constitutes the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, 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 facsimile or electronic .pdf copy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.13. USA Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the Patriot Act hereby notifies the Borrower and each Guarantor that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and each Guarantor, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and each Guarantor and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and each Guarantor in accordance with the Patriot Act.

SECTION 10.14. New Value. It is the intention of the parties hereto that any provision of Collateral by a Grantor as a condition to, or in connection with, the making of any Loan or the issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder, shall be made as a contemporaneous exchange for new value given by the Lenders or Issuing Lenders, as the case may be, to the Borrower.

SECTION 10.15. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.15.

154

SECTION 10.16. No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower, its stockholders and/or its affiliates. The Borrower agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise related to the Transactions will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the other hand. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrower and the Guarantors, on the other hand, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Borrower, its management, stockholders, affiliates, creditors or any other Person. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. The Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Borrower, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

SECTION 10.17. Lender Action. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents (including the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of the Borrower or any Guarantor, unless expressly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Section 10.17 are solely as between the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, the Borrower or any Guarantor and shall not limit any right or defense available to the Borrower or any Guarantor.

SECTION 10.18. Intercreditor Agreements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if at any time the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall enter into any Intercreditor Agreement, pursuant to and as permitted by the terms of this Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement and such Intercreditor Agreement or such Other Intercreditor Agreement shall remain outstanding, the rights granted to the Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Liens and security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and the exercise of any right or remedy by any Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be subject to the terms and conditions of such Intercreditor Agreement or such Other Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and such Intercreditor Agreement or such Other Intercreditor Agreements, the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement or such Other Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control with respect to any right or remedy, and no right, power or remedy granted to any Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be exercised by such Agent, and no direction shall be given by such Agent, in contravention of such Intercreditor Agreement or such Other Intercreditor Agreement.

SECURITY AGREEMENT

(SLOTS, FOREIGN GATE LEASEHOLDS AND ROUTE AUTHORITIES)

SECURITY AGREEMENT (Slots, Foreign Gate Leaseholds and Route Authorities), dated as of October 10, 2014 (this “SGR Security Agreement”), between AMERICAN AIRLINES, INC., a Delaware corporation (together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Grantor”) and CITIBANK N.A., as collateral agent (in such capacity, and together with its successors and permitted assigns in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”), for its benefit and the benefit of the other Secured Parties. Capitalized terms used herein without other definition are used as defined and interpreted in Section 17.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Grantor and the Collateral Agent are parties to that certain Credit and Guaranty Agreement dated as of October 10, 2014 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Grantor, American Airlines Group Inc., (“Parent”), as guarantor party thereto, the other guarantors from time to time party thereto, the lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent;

WHEREAS the Grantor may establish accounts for cash and to hold securities and other financial assets (each an “Account”) that will be subject to an Account Control Agreement;

WHEREAS, in order to secure the Grantor’s obligations, the Grantor has agreed to grant a continuing Lien on the Collateral (as defined below) to secure the Obligations; and

WHEREAS, the Collateral Agent and one or more Additional Agents may in the future enter into one or more Intercreditor Agreements and/or Other Intercreditor Agreements;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, the mutual agreements set forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this SGR Security Agreement hereby agree as follows:

Section 1. Grant of Security Interest. To secure all of the Obligations, the Grantor hereby pledges, grants and creates a security interest and mortgage in favor of the Collateral Agent for its benefit and the benefit of the other Secured Parties in all of the following assets, rights and properties, whether real or personal and whether tangible or intangible (the “Collateral”):

A-1

(a) all of the right, title and interest of the Grantor in, to and under the Route Authorities, the Slots and the Foreign Gate Leaseholds, whether now owned or held or hereafter acquired and whether such assets, rights or properties constitute General Intangibles or another type or category of collateral under the NY UCC or any other type of asset, right or property;

(b) all of the right, title and interest of the Grantor in, to and under each Account and all cash, checks, money orders and other items of value of the Grantor now or hereafter paid, deposited, credited or held (whether for collection, provisionally or otherwise) in each Account (the “Account Collateral”); and

(c) all of the right, title and interest of the Grantor in, to and under all Proceeds of any and all of the foregoing (including, without limitation, all Proceeds (of any kind) received or to be received by the Grantor upon the transfer or other disposition of any of the assets, rights and properties described in clause (a), notwithstanding whether the mortgage, pledge and grant of the security interest in any such asset, right or property is legally effective under applicable law);

provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this SGR Security Agreement, (1) (x) if a Transfer Restriction would be applicable to the pledge, grant or creation of a security interest in or mortgage on any asset, right or property described above (other than in the Route Authorities or Proceeds thereof), then so long as such Transfer Restriction is in effect, or (y) if any asset, right or property is at any time subject to a security interest or mortgage in favor of any secured party pursuant to that certain Security Agreement (Slots, Foreign Gate Leaseholds and Route Authorities), dated as of June 27, 2013 between American Airlines, Inc., and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch pursuant to the terms thereof in effect as of the date hereof (and not pursuant to a specific election made by the Grantor after the date hereof to add any such asset, right or property as collateral thereunder pursuant to any supplement or amendment thereto), then, this SGR Security Agreement shall not pledge, grant or create any security interest in or mortgage on, and the term “Collateral” shall not include, any such asset, right or property, and (2) if any Transfer Restriction applies to the transfer or assignment (other than the pledge, grant or creation of a security interest or mortgage) of any Collateral, any provision of this SGR Security Agreement permitting the Collateral Agent to cause the Grantor to transfer or assign to it or any other Person any of such Collateral (and any right the Collateral Agent may have under applicable law to do so by virtue of the security interest and mortgage pledged or granted to it under this SGR Security Agreement) shall be subject to such Transfer Restriction; provided, however, that following an Event of Default, at the direction of the Collateral Agent, the Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all approvals and consents that would be required to transfer or assign Collateral subject to such a

A-2

Transfer Restriction referred to in clause (2) of the preceding proviso. As used herein, “Transfer Restriction” means any prohibition, restriction or consent requirement, whether arising under contract, applicable law, rule or regulation, or otherwise, relating to the transfer or assignment by the Grantor of, or the pledge, grant, or creation by the Grantor of a security interest or mortgage in, any right, title or interest in any asset, right or property, or any claim, right or benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom, if any such transfer or assignment thereof (or any pledge, grant or creation of a security interest or mortgage therein) or any attempt to so transfer, assign, pledge, grant or create, in contravention or violation of any such prohibition or restriction or without any required consent of any Person would (i) constitute a violation of the terms under which the Grantor was granted such right, title or interest or give rise to a default, breach, right of recoupment, claim, defense, termination, right of termination or remedy with respect thereto, (ii) entitle any Governmental Authority or other Person to terminate or suspend any such right, title or interest (or the Grantor’s interest in any agreement or license related thereto), or (iii) be prohibited by or violate any applicable law, rule or regulation, except, in any case, to the extent such “Transfer Restriction” shall be rendered ineffective (both to the extent that it (x) prohibits, restricts or requires consent and (y) gives rise to a default, breach, right of recoupment, claim, defense, termination, right of termination or remedy) by virtue of any applicable law, including, but not limited to Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the NY UCC, to the extent applicable (or any corresponding sections of the UCC in a jurisdiction other than the State of New York to the extent applicable).

Section 2. Security for Obligations; Intercreditor Relations.

(a) This SGR Security Agreement secures, and the Collateral is collateral security for, the Obligations.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is the understanding of the parties hereto that the Liens granted pursuant to Section 1 shall, prior to the Discharge of Additional Obligations that are Senior Priority Obligations, be pari passu and equal in priority to the Liens granted to any Additional Agent for the benefit of the holders of the applicable Additional Obligations that are Senior Priority Obligations to secure such Additional Obligations that are Senior Priority Obligations pursuant to the applicable Additional Collateral Documents (except as may be separately otherwise agreed between the Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, and any Additional Agent, on behalf of itself and the Additional Credit Facility Secured Parties represented thereby). The Collateral Agent acknowledges and agrees that, in the event that it enters into an Intercreditor Agreement or an Other Intercreditor Agreement, the relative priority of the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and any Additional Agent shall be determined solely (as between the parties to such Intercreditor Agreement or Other Intercreditor Agreement and except as otherwise provided therein) pursuant to

A-3

the applicable Intercreditor Agreements and Other Intercreditor Agreements, and not by priority as a matter of law or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this SGR Security Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the applicable Intercreditor Agreements and Other Intercreditor Agreements. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement and this SGR Security Agreement, the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement or Other Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, shall govern and control as among (i) the Collateral Agent and any Additional Agent, in the case of the Intercreditor Agreement, and (ii) the Collateral Agent and any other secured creditor (or agent therefor) party thereto, in the case of any Other Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any such conflict, the Grantor may act (or omit to act) in accordance with such Intercreditor Agreement or such Other Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, and shall not be in breach, violation or default of its obligations hereunder by reason of doing so. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, for so long as any Additional Obligations that are Senior Priority Obligations remain outstanding, any obligation hereunder to deliver, transfer or assign to the Collateral Agent any Collateral shall be satisfied by causing such Collateral to be delivered, transferred or assigned to the applicable Senior Priority Representative to be held in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 3. No Release.

(a) Other than as provided in clause (2) of the proviso to Section 1, nothing set forth in this SGR Security Agreement shall relieve the Grantor from the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on the Grantor’s part to be performed or observed under or in respect of any of the Collateral or from any liability to any Person under or in respect of any of the Collateral.

(b) Nothing set forth in this SGR Security Agreement shall impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on the Grantor’s part to be so performed or observed or impose any liability on the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of the Grantor relating thereto or for any breach of any representation or warranty on the part of the Grantor contained in this SGR Security Agreement, or in respect of the Collateral or made in connection herewith or therewith. This Section 3(b) shall survive the termination of this SGR Security Agreement and the discharge of the Grantor’s obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents.

A-4

Section 4. Representations and Warranties. The Grantor represents and warrants as follows as of the date hereof:

(a) All UCC filings necessary or reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to create, preserve, protect and perfect the security interests granted by the Grantor to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in respect of the Collateral (other than the Account Collateral) have been accomplished by the Grantor to the extent that such security interests can be perfected by filings under the UCC and all actions necessary to obtain control of the Account Collateral as provided in Sections 9-104 and 9-106 of the UCC have been taken by the Grantor to the extent that such security interests can be perfected on or before the date hereof by execution and delivery of the Account Control Agreement. Subject to any Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement, the security interests granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this SGR Security Agreement in and to the Collateral constitute and hereafter at all times shall constitute a perfected security interest therein superior and prior to the rights of all other Persons therein (subject, in the case of priority only, only to Permitted Liens) to the extent such perfection and priority can be obtained by filings under the UCC and by the execution and delivery of the Account Control Agreement, and the Collateral Agent is entitled with respect to such perfected security interest to all the rights, priorities and benefits afforded by the UCC to perfected security interests.

(b) There are no filings, registrations or recordings under Title 49 necessary to create, preserve, protect or perfect the security interests granted by the Grantor to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in respect of the Collateral.

(c) The Grantor is, and as to Collateral acquired by it from time to time after the date hereof the Grantor will be, the holder of all such Collateral free from any Lien except for (1) the Lien and security interest created by this SGR Security Agreement and (2) Permitted Liens.

(d) There is no UCC financing statement (or, to the knowledge of the Grantor, any similar statement or instrument of registration of a security interest under the law of any jurisdiction) in effect on the date hereof, covering or purporting to cover any security interest in the Collateral (other than those relating to Permitted Liens).

(e) The chief executive offices of the Grantor as of the date of this SGR Security Agreement are located at 0000 Xxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxx, Xxxxx 00000.

Set forth on Schedule II is a true, correct and complete list of the Scheduled Services as of the last calendar week prior to the date hereof.

(h) The Grantor holds each of the Pledged Slots pursuant to authority granted by the applicable Governmental Authorities and Foreign Aviation Authorities, and there exists no material violation by the Grantor of the terms, conditions or limitations of any rule, regulation or order of the applicable Governmental Authorities or Foreign Aviation Authorities regarding such Pledged Slots or any provisions of law applicable to such Pledged Slots that gives any applicable Governmental Authority or Foreign Aviation Authority the right to modify in any material respect, terminate, cancel or withdraw the rights of the Grantor in any such Pledged Slots.

(i) The Grantor holds each of the Pledged Foreign Gate Leaseholds pursuant to authority granted by the applicable Airport Authority or Foreign Aviation Authority, and there exists no material violation by the Grantor of the regulations, terms, conditions or limitations of the relevant Airport Authority or Foreign Aviation Authority applicable to any such Pledged Foreign Gate Leasehold or any provision of law applicable to any such Pledged Foreign Gate Leasehold that gives any applicable Airport Authority or Foreign Aviation Authority the right to modify in any material respect, terminate, cancel or withdraw the rights of the Grantor in any such Pledged Foreign Gate Leasehold.

The Grantor possesses all necessary certificates, franchises, licenses, permits, rights, designations, authorizations, exemptions, concessions, frequencies and consents of any Governmental Authority which relate to the operation of the Scheduled Services and the conduct of its business and operations as currently conducted, except where failure to so possess would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(k) The Grantor has full corporate power and authority and legal right to pledge all of the Collateral pursuant to, and as provided in, this SGR Security Agreement.

(a) The Grantor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to defend the Collateral against any and all claims and demands of all Persons at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party (other than Permitted Liens); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Grantor’s only obligations with respect to any Transfer Restriction described in clause (2) of the first proviso to Section 1 shall be as stated in the second proviso to Section 1.

A-7

(b) The Grantor shall not execute or authorize to be filed in any public office any UCC financing statement (or similar statement or instrument of registration of a security interest under the law of any jurisdiction) relating to the Collateral, except UCC financing statements (or similar statements or instruments of registration of a security interest under the law of any jurisdiction) filed or to be filed in respect of and covering the security interests granted hereby by the Grantor and except with respect to Permitted Liens.

(c) The Grantor shall give to the Collateral Agent timely written notice (but in any event not later than 30 days prior to the expiration of the period of time specified under applicable law to prevent lapse of perfection) of any (i) change in its jurisdiction of incorporation, or (ii) change in its name, identity or corporate or other organizational structure to such an extent that any UCC financing statement filed by the Collateral Agent in connection with this SGR Security Agreement would become seriously misleading; and the Grantor shall, in each case, provide such other information in connection therewith as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request and shall make all filings under the UCC reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to maintain the perfection and priority of the security interests of the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in the Collateral intended to be granted hereby.

Section 6. Supplements, Further Assurances.

(a) The Grantor may, at any time and from time to time, execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent, and upon receipt the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver, a supplement to this SGR Security Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (each such supplement, an “SGR Security Agreement Supplement”) designating any non-stop scheduled air carrier service being operated by the Grantor at such time (each, a “Designated Service”) as an additional Scheduled Service, identifying one or more airports outside the United States that is an origin and/or destination point for such Designated Service as an Additional Foreign Airport and, if applicable, identifying one or more route authorities to operate such Designated Service as an additional Route Authority. Upon the execution and delivery of such SGR Security Agreement Supplement, (i) each such Designated Service shall be included in the definition of “Scheduled Services”, (ii) each such airport outside the United States shall be included in the definition of “Additional Foreign Airports”, (iii) each such route authority shall be included in the definition of “Route Authorities” and (iv) the Additional Collateral (as defined in such SGR Security Agreement Supplement) shall be Collateral hereunder.

A-8

Section 7. Provisions Concerning Collateral.

(a) UCC Financing Statements. The Grantor hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent, at any time and from time to time, to file or record such UCC financing statements which reasonably describe the Collateral and amendments thereto, in the form provided to it by the Grantor, as may from time to time be required or necessary to grant, continue and maintain a valid, enforceable, first priority security interest in the Collateral as provided herein, subject to Permitted Liens (to the extent such perfection and priority can be obtained by filing a UCC financing statement), all in accordance with the UCC. The Grantor shall pay any applicable filing fees and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to the filing of such UCC financing statements and amendments thereto. The Collateral Agent hereby authorizes the Grantor to file (i) UCC financing statements and amendments to UCC financing statements filed on the date hereof in each case adding Collateral pursuant to an SGR Security Agreement Supplement and (ii) continuation statements of any UCC financing statement naming the Collateral Agent, as secured party, and the Grantor, as debtor, in each case filed pursuant to the terms of this SGR Security Agreement, any SGR Security Agreement Supplement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing and for the avoidance of doubt, the Grantor shall not be responsible for the filing of any continuation statements of any UCC financing statements referred to herein unless such filing is requested by, and expressly authorized by, the Collateral Agent.

(b) Compliance with Laws and Regulations. Except for matters that would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, the Grantor shall comply with all laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations, and requirements of all federal, state, municipal or other governmental or quasi-governmental authorities or bodies including, without limitation, Foreign Aviation Authorities, then applicable to the Collateral (or any part thereof) and/or the use thereof by the Grantor, of every nature and kind (the “Requirements”), whether or not such Requirements shall now exist or shall hereafter be enacted or promulgated and whether or not the same may be said to be within the present contemplation of the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Grantor in good faith contests a Requirement, it shall not be obligated to comply with such Requirement to the extent such non-compliance or deferral is consistent with law and does not have a Material Adverse Effect.

A-9

(c) Notice of Violations. The Grantor agrees to give the Collateral Agent notice of any violations of any Requirement with respect to the Collateral or the Grantor’s use thereof that may reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect within fifteen (15) Business Days after a Responsible Officer of the Grantor obtains knowledge of such violation.

(d) Disposition of Collateral. Any or all of the Collateral may be sold, leased, conveyed, transferred or otherwise disposed of by the Grantor, subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement and each applicable Intercreditor Agreement and Other Intercreditor Agreement.

Section 8. Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. The Grantor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as the Grantor’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Grantor and in the name of the Grantor or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, and in accordance with and subject to any Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this SGR Security Agreement, which appointment as attorney-in-fact is coupled with an interest.

Section 9. Collateral Agent May Perform. If the Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein within a reasonable time after receipt of a written request to do so from the Collateral Agent, upon two (2) Business Days prior written notice the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the reasonable expenses of the Collateral Agent, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of its counsel, incurred in connection therewith, shall be payable by the Grantor in accordance with Section 10.04 of the Credit Agreement and shall constitute Obligations.

Section 10. The Collateral Agent. The Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under this SGR Security Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this SGR Security Agreement or any amendment, supplement or other modification of this SGR Security Agreement shall, as between the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Grantor, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and the Grantor shall not be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

A-10

Section 11. Events of Default, Remedies.

(a) Remedies: Obtaining the Collateral Upon Event of Default. In each case, subject to the requirements of applicable law (including without limitation the UCC and Title 49) and subject to the approval of all necessary Governmental Authorities, Foreign Aviation Authorities and Airport Authorities, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then and in every such case, the Collateral Agent may, subject to any Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement, at any time or from time to time during the continuance of such Event of Default:

(i) Declare the entire right, title and interest of the Grantor in and to the Collateral (other than the Account Collateral) vested, in which event such rights, title and interest shall immediately vest in the Collateral Agent, in which case the Grantor agrees to execute and deliver such deeds of conveyance, assignments and other documents or instruments (including any notices or applications to the DOT, the FAA, applicable Foreign Aviation Authorities, Governmental Authorities or Airport Authorities having jurisdiction over any such Collateral or the use thereof) as shall be requested by the Collateral Agent in order to effectuate the transfer of such Collateral, together with copies of the certificates or orders issued by the DOT and the Foreign Aviation Authorities representing same and any other rights of the Grantor with respect thereto, to any designee or designees selected by the Collateral Agent and approved by all necessary Governmental Authorities, Foreign Aviation Authorities and Airport Authorities (provided that if any of the foregoing is not permitted under applicable law or by the DOT or applicable Governmental Authority, Foreign Aviation Authority and/or Airport Authority, the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties shall nevertheless continue to have all of the Grantor’s right, title and interest in and to all of the Proceeds (of any kind) received or to be received by the Grantor upon the transfer or other disposition of such Collateral); it being understood that the Grantor’s obligation to deliver such Collateral and such documents and instruments with respect thereto, subject to the aforesaid limitations, is of the essence of this SGR Security Agreement;

(ii) Sell or otherwise liquidate, or direct the Grantor to sell or otherwise liquidate, any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof and take possession of the Proceeds of any such sale or liquidation; and

(iii) Without notice to the Grantor except as required by law and at any time or from time to time, deliver a Notice of Exclusive Control (as defined in the Account Control Agreement), and charge, set off and otherwise apply all or any part of the Obligations against any funds held with respect to the Account Collateral.

A-11

(b) Remedies; Disposition of the Collateral.

(b) Appointment of Agent. Each Non-Lender Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits of this SGR Security Agreement and the other Collateral Documents, shall be deemed irrevocably to make, constitute and appoint the Collateral Agent, as agent under the Credit Agreement (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Person’s true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact, and in such capacity, the Collateral Agent shall have the right, with power of substitution for the Non-Lender Secured Parties and in each such Person’s name or otherwise, to effectuate any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Collateral.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Non-Lender Secured Party waives any claim it might have against the Collateral Agent or the Lenders with respect to, or arising out of, any action or failure to act or any error of judgment, negligence, or mistake or oversight whatsoever on the part of the Collateral Agent or the Lenders or their respective directors, officers, employees or agents with respect to any exercise of rights or remedies under the Loan Documents or any transaction relating to the Collateral (including, without limitation, any such exercise described in Section 12(a)(ii)), except for any such action or failure to act that constitutes willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, none of the Collateral Agent or any Lender or any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of Parent,

A-15

All such rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of one shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other or others. No delay or omission of the Collateral Agent in the exercise of any such right, power or remedy and no renewal or extension of any of the Obligations shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. No notice to or demand on the Grantor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. In the event that the Collateral Agent shall bring any suit to enforce any of its rights hereunder and shall be entitled to judgment, then in such suit the Collateral Agent may recover reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and the amounts thereof shall be included in such judgment.

A-16

(b) In the event the Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this SGR Security Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case the Grantor, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision of this SGR Security Agreement, any termination or waiver of any provision of this SGR Security Agreement and any consent to any departure by the Grantor from the terms of any provision of this SGR Security Agreement shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. No notice to or demand upon the Grantor in any instance hereunder shall entitle the Grantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that any amendment, amendment and restatement, waiver, supplement or other modification of or to any Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement that would have the effect, directly or indirectly, through any reference herein to any Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise, of waiving, amending, supplementing or otherwise modifying this SGR Security Agreement, or any term or provision hereof, or any right or obligation of the Grantor hereunder or in respect hereof, shall not be given such effect except pursuant to a written instrument executed by the Grantor and the Collateral Agent in accordance with this Section 15.

and

CITIBANK, N.A., as BANK

THIS ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of [ ], 20[ ], by and among [ ], a [ ] corporation (the “Pledgor”), [ ], a [ ] corporation (the “Secured Party”) and Citibank, N.A., a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of the United States (the “Bank”).

WHEREAS, the Pledgor and the Secured Party have entered into a [Pledge Agreement] (“Pledge Agreement”), dated as of [ ], 20[ ], pursuant to which the Pledgor has granted the Secured Party a security interest in account # [ ], a non-interest bearing account established and maintained by the Bank for the Pledgor (the “Account”).

WHEREAS, the parties wish that the Bank enter into this Agreement in order to provide for the “control” (as defined in Section 9-104(a) of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York (“UCC”), in the case of a deposit account or Section 8-106 of the UCC, in the case of a securities account) of the account as a means to perfect the security interest of the Secured Party.

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used herein without definition and that are defined in Article 8 or Article 9 of the UCC shall have the respective meanings set forth therein.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby irrevocably acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. The Account. The Pledgor and the Bank represent and warrant to, and agree with the Secured Party that:

(a) The Bank maintains the Account for the Pledgor, and all property (including, without limitation, all funds and financial assets) held by the Bank for the account of the Pledgor are, and will continue to be, credited to the Account in accordance with instructions given by the Pledgor (unless otherwise provided herein).

(b) To the extent that cash is credited to the Account, the Account is a deposit account; and to the extent that financial assets (other than cash) are credited to the Account, the Account is a securities account. The Bank is (i) the bank with which the Account is maintained and (ii) the securities intermediary with respect to financial assets held in the Account. The Pledgor is (A) the Bank’s customer with respect to the Account and (B) the entitlement holder with respect to all financial assets credited from time to time to the Account.

(c) Notwithstanding any other agreement to the contrary, the Bank’s jurisdiction for the purposes of UCC 8-110 and 9-304 with respect to the Account for purposes of the UCC is, and will continue to be for so long as the Secured Party’s security interest shall be in effect, the State of New York.

(d) The Pledgor and the Bank do not know of any claim to or interest in the Account or any property (including, without limitation, funds and financial assets) credited to the Account, except for claims and interests of the parties referred to in this Agreement.

(e) [Initially, until otherwise directed by [identify party or parties], funds held in the Account will be deposited in Citibank’s Dollars on Deposit in Custody Account (“DDCA”). The Bank will make the balances in the Account available to the Bank’s treasury division on a daily basis. The Account will earn compensation at a rate that will be determined daily based on the compensation rate paid by the Bank’s treasury division to the trust and custody department. Should the calculation method no longer be available, the Bank will endeavor to notify the [Pledgor and the Secured Party] no less than 30 days prior. Compensation will be paid monthly, on the second Business Day of the following month, by a credit to the Account. Monthly compensation will be reported on a Form 1099 INT, if applicable.]

(f) In the event that any securities are deposited into the Account, the [identify party] shall provide the Bank with all information set forth on Schedule D attached hereto, and any other information necessary or requested by the Bank in order to accept delivery of the securities being deposited.

2. Control over Account. [CHECK ONE BOX ONLY]

The Bank shall comply with (a) all instructions directing disposition of the funds in the Account (b) all notifications and entitlement orders that the Bank receives directing it to transfer or redeem any financial assets in the Account and (c) all other directions concerning the Account, including, without limitation, directions to distribute proceeds of any such transfer or redemption of interest or dividends on financial assets in the Account (any such instruction, notification or direction referred to in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above being an “Account Direction”), in each case of clauses (a), (b) and (c) above originated by:

( ) the Pledgor, until the time that that Bank receives a notice, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a “Notice Of Exclusive Control”) from the Secured Party that the Secured Party is exercising its right to exclusive control over the Account, and after such time that the Bank receives a Notice of Exclusive Control, the Secured Party, without further consent by the Pledgor. Until the Bank receives a Notice of Exclusive Control from the Secured Party that the Secured Party will exercise exclusive control over the Account, the Bank shall distribute to the Pledgor all interest and cash dividends on property (including, without limitation, funds and financial assets) in the Account on a quarterly basis. If the Bank receives from the Secured Party a Notice of Exclusive Control, the Bank shall cease complying with Account Directions of the Pledgor, and shall cease distributing to the Pledgor any interest and dividends on property (including, without limitation, funds and financial assets) in the Account.

( ) the Secured Party. The Bank shall comply with any instruction or entitlement order of the Secured Party. None of the Pledgor, nor any other person or entity, acting through or under the Pledgor, shall have any control over the use of, or any right to withdraw any amount from, the Account.

3. Priority of Secured Party’s Security Interest.

The Bank subordinates in favor of the Secured Party any security interest, lien or right of setoff it may have, now or in the future, against the Account or assets in the Account; provided; however, that, subject to the foregoing, the Bank may set off all amounts due to it in respect of its fees and expenses (including without limitation the payment of any legal fees or expenses) or any amounts payable pursuant to Section 4 hereof.

4. Investment of Funds; Tax Reporting.

(a) [Initially, any funds held in the Account shall remain uninvested and no interest shall accrue thereon. Thereafter, the [identify party] may instruct the Bank in writing to invest any funds held in the Account in a money market fund, provided that such investment instructions are received by the Bank at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such proposed investment and such investment is available to the Bank. ]¹ [Initially, until otherwise directed by [identify party], the Bank shall invest the assets in the Account in [ ]. The Bank shall invest such assets on the date of deposit provided that such assets are received on or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time.]² Any assets or written notice to remit payment received after 11:00 a.m. New York City time shall be treated as if received on the following Business Day. For purposes of this Agreement “Business Day” shall mean any day that the Bank is open for business.

(b) Any investment direction contained herein may be executed through an affiliated broker dealer of the Bank and will be entitled to such usual and customary fee. Neither the Bank nor any of its affiliates assume any duty or liability for monitoring the investment rating.

(c) The Pledgor and the Secured Party agree that, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, any earnings or proceeds [or compensation] received on or distributions from the assets in the Account during a calendar year period shall be treated as the income of the Pledgor and shall be reported on an annual basis by the Bank on the appropriate United States Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Form 1099 (or IRS Form 1042-S), as required pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”) and the regulations thereunder.

(d) The Pledgor and the Secured Party shall upon execution of this Agreement provide the Bank with a duly completed and properly executed original IRS Form W-9 (or original applicable Form W-8, in the case of a non-U.S. person) along with any supporting documentation certifying each party’s status for U.S. tax information reporting purposes and tax identification number. In the event the payee is not a party to this Agreement, the Pledgor or the Secured Party, as the case may be, shall provide the Bank with the applicable duly completed and properly executed IRS Form along with any required supporting documentation from such payee prior to payment being made. The Pledgor and the Secured Party understand that, in the event valid U.S. tax forms or other required supporting documentation are not provided to the Bank, the tax law may require withholding of tax on any earnings, proceeds[,compensation] or distributions from the assets in the Account and further, such withholdings will be taken from the assets in the Account and deposited with the IRS in the manner prescribed for the Bank to perform its reporting obligations under the Code, the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act and the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act and any other applicable law or regulation.

¹	To be used if funds deposited in DDCA, which is not considered an investment. Funds remain uninvested in cash and the client is paid a certain return on balances as revenue share.

²	To be used if default money market fund selected.

(e) Should the Bank become liable for the payment of taxes, including withholding taxes relating to any funds, including interest and penalties thereon, held by it pursuant to this Agreement or any payment made hereunder, the Pledgor and Secured Party agree, jointly and severally, to reimburse the Bank for such taxes, interest and penalties upon demand. Without limiting the foregoing, the Bank shall be entitled to deduct such taxes, interest and penalties from the assets in the Account.

(f) The Bank’s rights under this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of the Bank.

5. Concerning the Bank.

(a) Bank Duties. Each of the Pledgor and the Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) the duties, responsibilities and obligations of the Bank shall be limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement, each of which is administrative or ministerial (and shall not be construed to be fiduciary in nature), and no duties, responsibilities or obligations shall be inferred or implied, (ii) the Bank shall not be responsible for any of the agreements referred to or described herein (including without limitation the Pledge Agreement), or for determining or compelling compliance therewith, and shall not otherwise be bound thereby, and ( (iii) the Bank shall not be required to expend or risk any of its own funds to satisfy payments from the Account hereunder.

(b) Liability of Bank. The Bank shall not be liable for any damage, loss or injury resulting from any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction). In no event shall the Bank be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive or special losses or damages, regardless of the form of action and whether or not any such losses or damages were foreseeable or contemplated. The Bank shall not be liable or responsible for the investment or reinvestment of any assets in the Account, or any liquidation of such investment or reinvestment, executed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, any liability for any delays in the investment or reinvestment of the assets in the Account, any loss of interest incident to any such delays, or any loss or penalty as a result of the liquidation of any investment before its stated maturity date. The Bank shall be entitled to rely upon any instruction, notice, request or other instrument delivered to it without being required to determine the authenticity or validity thereof, or the truth or accuracy of any information stated therein. The Bank may act in reliance upon any signature believed by it to be genuine and may assume that any person purporting to make any statement or execute any document in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so. The Bank may consult with counsel satisfactory to it, and the opinion or advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and in accordance with the opinion and advice of such counsel. The Bank shall not incur any liability for not performing any act or fulfilling any obligation hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond its control (including, without limitation, any provision of any present or future law or regulation or any act of any governmental authority, any act of God or war or terrorism, or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire services or any electronic communication facility).

(c) Reliance on Orders. The Bank is authorized to comply with final orders issued or process entered by any court with respect to the assets in the Account, without determination by the Bank of such court’s jurisdiction in the matter. If any portion of the assets in the Account are at any time attached, garnished or levied upon under any court order, or in case the payment, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such property shall be stayed or enjoined by any court order, or in case

-4-

any order, judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting such property or any part thereof, then and in any such event, the Bank is authorized to rely upon and comply with any such order, writ, judgment or decree which it is advised is binding upon it without the need for appeal or other action; and if the Bank complies with any such order, writ, judgment or decree, it shall not be liable to the Pledgor or the Secured Party or to any other person or entity by reason of such compliance even though such order, writ, judgment or decree may be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated.

(d) Unlawful Gambling. In accordance with the Unlawful Internet Gambling Act (the “Act”), the Pledgor and the Secured Party may not use the Account or other Bank facilities in the United States to process ‘restricted transactions’ as such term is defined in 31 CFR Section 132.2(y).

Instructions on how to register and/or retrieve an encrypted message will be included in the first secure email sent by the Bank to the E-mail Recipient. For additional information and assistance call (000) 000-0000 (in the U.S.), (000) 000-0000 (outside the U.S.), or contact the Bank.

(f) Tax Advice. The Bank, its affiliates, and its employees are not in the business of providing tax or legal advice to any taxpayer outside of the Bank and its affiliates. This Agreement and any amendments or attachments are not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used or relied upon, by any such taxpayer or for the purpose of avoiding tax penalties. Any such taxpayer should seek advice based on the taxpayer’s particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

6. Compensation, Expense Reimbursement and Indemnification.

-5-

own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Each Indemnified Party shall have the right to select and employ separate counsel with respect to any action or claim brought or asserted against it, and the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be paid upon demand by the Pledgor and the Secured Party jointly and severally. The foregoing indemnification and agreement to hold harmless shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Bank.

7. Statements, Confirmations and Notices of Adverse Claims.

The Bank will send copies of all statements and confirmations for the Account simultaneously to the Pledgor and the Secured Party. The Bank will use reasonable efforts promptly to notify the Secured Party and the Pledgor if any other person claims that it has a property interest in the Account or any financial asset in the Account.

8. Exclusive Benefit.

Except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, this Agreement is for the exclusive benefit of the parties to this Agreement and their respective permitted successors, and shall not be deemed to give, either expressly or implicitly, any legal or equitable right, remedy, or claim to any other entity or person whatsoever.

If a successor bank has not accepted such appointment by the end of such (i) 30-day period, in the case of the Bank’s removal, or (ii) 30-day period, in the case of the Bank’s resignation, the Bank may either (A) safe keep the assets in the Account until a successor bank is appointed, without any obligation to invest the same or continue to perform under this Agreement, or (B) apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor bank or for other appropriate relief.

(c) Upon receipt of notice of the identity of the successor bank, the Bank shall either deliver the assets in the Account then held hereunder to the successor bank, less the Bank’s fees, costs and expenses, or hold such assets in the Account (or any portion thereof) pending distribution, until all such fees, costs and expenses are paid to it.

TO HAVE AND TO HOLD all and singular the aforesaid property unto the Trustee, and its successors and permitted assigns, in trust for its benefit and the benefit of the other Secured Parties, except as otherwise provided in this Aircraft Security Agreement, and for the uses and purposes and in all cases and as to all property specified in paragraphs (1) through (4) inclusive above, subject to the terms and provisions set forth in this Aircraft Security Agreement.

It is expressly agreed that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Grantor shall remain liable under each aircraft purchase or other agreement in respect of any Warranty Rights to perform all of its obligations thereunder, and, except to the extent expressly provided in this Aircraft Security Agreement, the Trustee shall not be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any obligations of the Grantor under or pursuant to this Aircraft Security Agreement, or to have any obligation or liability under any aircraft purchase or other agreement in respect of any Warranty Rights by reason of or arising out of the assignment hereunder, or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by it, or present or file any claim or take any action to collect or enforce the payment of any amount that may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (but without in any way releasing the Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under any aircraft purchase or other agreement in respect of Warranty Rights), the Trustee confirms for the benefit of each manufacturer of any Aircraft that in exercising any rights under the Warranty Rights relating to such Aircraft, or in making any claim with respect to any such Aircraft or other goods and services delivered or to be delivered pursuant to the related aircraft purchase or other agreement for such Aircraft, the terms and conditions of such aircraft purchase or other agreement relating to such Warranty Rights, including, without limitation, any warranty disclaimer provisions for the benefit of such manufacturer, shall apply to and be binding upon the Trustee to the same extent as the Grantor. Subject to any Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement, the Grantor hereby directs each manufacturer of any Aircraft, so long as an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to pay all amounts, if any, payable to the Grantor pursuant to the Warranty Rights relating to such Aircraft directly to the Trustee to be held and applied as provided herein. Nothing contained herein shall subject any manufacturer of any Aircraft to any liability to which it would not otherwise be subject under any aircraft purchase or other agreement relating thereto or modify in any respect the contract rights of such manufacturer thereunder.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is the understanding of the parties hereto that the Liens granted pursuant to this Aircraft Security Agreement shall, prior to the Discharge of Additional Obligations that are Senior Priority Obligations, be pari passu and equal in priority to the Liens granted to any Additional Agent for the benefit of the holders of the applicable Additional Obligations that are Senior Priority Obligations to secure such Additional Obligations that are Senior Priority Obligations pursuant to the applicable Additional Collateral Documents (except as may be separately otherwise agreed between the Trustee, on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, and any Additional Agent, on behalf of itself and the Additional Credit Facility Secured Parties represented thereby). The Trustee acknowledges and agrees that the relative priority of the Liens granted to the Trustee, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and any Additional Agent shall be determined solely (as between the parties to such Intercreditor Agreement or Other Intercreditor Agreement and except as otherwise provided therein) pursuant to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements and Other Intercreditor Agreements, and not by priority as a matter of law or otherwise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Liens granted to the Trustee pursuant to this Aircraft Security Agreement and the exercise of any right or remedy by the Trustee hereunder are subject to the provisions of the applicable Intercreditor Agreements and Other Intercreditor Agreements. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement and this Aircraft Security Agreement, the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement or Other Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, shall govern and control as among (i) the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and any Additional Agent, in the case of the Intercreditor Agreement, and (ii) the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and any other secured creditor (or agent therefor) party thereto, in the case of any Other Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any such conflict, the Grantor may act (or omit to act) in accordance with such Intercreditor Agreement or such Other Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable, and shall not be in breach, violation or default of its

F-5

obligations hereunder by reason of doing so. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, for so long as any Additional Obligations that are Senior Priority Obligations remain outstanding, any obligation hereunder to deliver, transfer or assign to the Collateral Agent any Collateral shall be satisfied by causing such Collateral to be delivered, transferred or assigned to the applicable Senior Priority Representative to be held in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Grantor does hereby irrevocably constitute the Trustee, on behalf of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, the true and lawful attorney of the Grantor (which appointment is coupled with an interest) with full power (in the name of the Grantor or otherwise) to ask for, require, demand and receive any and all monies and claims for monies (in each case including insurance and requisition proceeds) due and to become due to the Grantor under or arising out of any aircraft purchase or other agreement (to the extent assigned hereby as part of the Warranty Rights), and all other property which now or hereafter constitutes part of the Aircraft Collateral, to endorse any checks or other instruments or orders in connection therewith and to file any claims or to take any action or to institute any proceedings which the Trustee may deem to be necessary or advisable in the premises; provided that the Trustee shall not exercise any such rights except (i) as permitted by each applicable Intercreditor Agreement and Other Intercreditor Agreement and (ii) during the continuance of an Event of Default.

The Grantor does hereby warrant and represent that it has not sold, assigned or pledged, and hereby covenants and agrees that it will not sell, assign or pledge, so long as this Aircraft Security Agreement shall remain in effect and the Lien hereof shall not have been released pursuant to the provisions hereof, any of its estate, right, title or interest hereby assigned, to any Person other than the Trustee, except as otherwise provided in or permitted by the Credit Agreement, any Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement.

The Grantor agrees that at any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Trustee, the Grantor shall promptly and duly execute and deliver or cause to be duly executed and delivered any and all such further instruments and documents as the Trustee may reasonably deem necessary to perfect, preserve or protect the mortgage, security interests and assignments created or intended to be created hereby or to obtain for the Trustee the full benefit of the assignment hereunder and of the rights and powers herein granted; provided that any instrument or other document so executed by the Grantor will not expand any obligations or limit any rights of the Grantor in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Aircraft Security Agreement.

Subject to any Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Trustee shall be entitled to exercise rights hereunder, at the request of the Trustee, the Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver to the Trustee such instruments of title and other documents as the Trustee reasonably deems necessary or advisable to enable the Trustee or a subagent or representative designated by the Trustee, at such time or times and place or places as the Trustee may specify, to obtain possession of all or any part of the Aircraft Collateral to which the Trustee shall at the time be entitled hereunder. If the Grantor shall for any reason fail to execute and deliver such instruments and documents after such request by the Trustee, subject to any Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement, the Trustee may seek a judgment conferring on the Trustee the right to immediate possession and requiring the Grantor to execute and deliver such instruments and documents to the Trustee, to the entry of which judgment the Grantor hereby specifically consents to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so. All actual and reasonable expenses of obtaining such judgment or of pursuing, searching for and taking such property shall, until paid, be secured by the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement.

(b) Notice of Sale; Bids; Etc.

No delay or omission by the Trustee in the exercise of any right, remedy or power or in the pursuance of any remedy shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver of any default on the part of the Grantor or to be an acquiescence therein.

Section 4.03. Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Trustee shall have instituted any proceedings to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Aircraft Security Agreement by foreclosure, entry or otherwise, and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every such case the Grantor and the Trustee shall, subject to any determination in such proceedings, be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Aircraft Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Trustee shall continue as if no such proceedings had been undertaken (but otherwise without prejudice).

(vi) install any such Engine on an airframe leased, purchased or owned by the Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) subject to a lease, conditional sale and/or other security agreement; provided that (A) such airframe is free and clear of all Liens except (1) the rights of the parties to the lease or any conditional sale or security agreement covering such airframe, or their successors and assigns, and (2) Liens of the type permitted by clause (v) of this Section 6.01(a) and (B) either (1) the Grantor shall have obtained from the lessor, conditional vendor or secured party of such airframe a written agreement (which may be the lease, conditional sale or other security agreement covering such airframe), in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee (it being understood that an agreement from such lessor, conditional vendor or secured party substantially in the form of the penultimate paragraph of this Section 6.01(a) shall be deemed to be satisfactory to the Trustee), whereby such lessor, conditional vendor or secured party expressly agrees that neither it nor its successors or assigns will acquire or claim any right, title or interest in any such Engine by reason of such Engine being installed on such airframe at any time while such Engine is subject to the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement or (2) such lease, conditional sale or other security agreement or other written agreement governing such conditional sale or other security interest provides that any such Engine shall not become subject to the Lien of such lease, conditional sale or other security agreement at any time while such Engine is subject to the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement, notwithstanding the installation thereof on such airframe;

(vii) install any such Engine on an airframe owned by the Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) [or any Affiliate of the Grantor], leased to the Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) or purchased by the Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) subject to a conditional sale or other security agreement under circumstances where neither clause (v) nor clause (vi) of this Section 6.01(a) is applicable; provided that such installation shall be deemed an Event of Loss with respect to such Engine, and the Grantor shall comply with Section 6.04(b) in respect thereof, if such installation shall adversely affect the Trustee’s security interest in any such Engine, the Trustee not intending hereby to waive any right or interest it may have to or in such Engine under applicable law until compliance by the Grantor with Section 6.04(b);

(viii) lease any such Engine or such Airframe and any such Engine to any United States air carrier as to which there is in force a certificate issued pursuant to the Transportation Code (49 U.S.C. §§41101-41112) or successor provision that gives like authority, or to any manufacturer of airframes or engines (or an Affiliate thereof acting under an unconditional guarantee of such manufacturer), so long as such manufacturer and, if applicable, such Affiliate is domiciled in the United States; provided that no Event of Default shall exist at the time any such lease is entered into; and

(ix) lease any such Engine or such Airframe and any such Engine to (A) any foreign air carrier other than those set forth in clause (B), (B) any foreign air carrier that is at the inception of the lease based in and a domiciliary of a country listed in Exhibit B hereto, (C) any foreign manufacturer of airframes or engines (or a foreign Affiliate of a

F-15

United States or foreign manufacturer of airframes or engines acting under an unconditional guarantee of such manufacturer), so long as such foreign manufacturer or (if applicable) foreign Affiliate is domiciled in a country listed in Exhibit B hereto, or (D) any foreign air carrier consented to in writing by the Trustee with the consent of the Collateral Agent; provided that (w) in the case of a lease to, or guarantee by, any entity pursuant to this Section 6.01(a)(ix), (1) other than a foreign carrier principally based in Taiwan, the United States maintains diplomatic relations with the country in which such entity is based and domiciled at the time such lease is entered into, (2) no Event of Default exists at the time such lease is entered into and (3) such entity is not then subject to any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or similar proceeding and shall not have substantially all of its property in the possession of any liquidator, trustee, receiver or similar person, (x) in the case of a lease to a foreign air carrier under clause (A) above, the Trustee receives at the time of such lease an opinion of counsel to the Grantor (such counsel to be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee) to the effect that there exist no possessory rights in favor of the lessee under the laws of such lessee’s country which would, upon bankruptcy or insolvency of or other default by the Grantor and assuming at such time such lessee is not insolvent or bankrupt, prevent the taking of possession of any such Engine or such Airframe and any such Engine by the Trustee in accordance with and when permitted by the terms of Section 4.01 upon the exercise by the Trustee of its remedies under Section 4.01, and (y) in the case of a lease to any foreign manufacturer or foreign Affiliate under clause (C) above, the re-registration conditions set forth in Section 6.01(e) shall be satisfied notwithstanding anything to the contrary in such clause (C); provided that the rights of any lessee or other transferee who receives possession of such Aircraft, such Airframe or any such Engine by reason of a transfer permitted by this Section 6.01(a) (other than the transfer of any such Engine which is deemed an Event of Loss) shall be subject and subordinate to, and any permitted lease shall be made expressly subject and subordinate to, all the terms of this Aircraft Security Agreement, including the Trustee’s rights to repossess pursuant to Section 4.01 and to avoid such lease upon such repossession, and the Grantor shall remain primarily liable hereunder for the performance and observance of all of the terms and conditions of this Aircraft Security Agreement to the same extent as if such lease or transfer had not occurred, any such lease shall include appropriate provisions for the maintenance and insurance of such Aircraft, Airframe or Engine, and no lease or transfer or possession otherwise in compliance with this Section shall (x) result in any registration or re-registration of such Aircraft except to the extent permitted in Section 6.01(e) or the maintenance, operation or use thereof that does not comply with Section 6.01(b) and Section 6.01(c) or (y) permit any action not permitted to be taken by the Grantor with respect to such Aircraft hereunder. The Grantor shall promptly notify the Trustee of the existence of any such lease with a term in excess of one year.

Each of the Trustee and the Collateral Agent agrees, and each other Secured Party by acceptance of any instrument evidencing Obligations is deemed to have agreed, for the benefit of the Grantor (and any Permitted Lessee) and for the benefit of the lessor, conditional vendor or secured party of such Airframe or engine leased to the Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) or leased to or purchased or owned by the Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) subject to a conditional sale or other security agreement, that the Trustee, the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties will not acquire or claim, as against the Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) or

F-16

such lessor, conditional vendor or secured party, any right, title or interest in (A) any engine or engines owned by the Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) or the lessor under such lease or subject to a security interest in favor of the secured party under any conditional sale or other security agreement as the result of such engine or engines being installed on such Airframe at any time while such engine or engines are subject to such lease or conditional sale or other security agreement or (B) any airframe owned by the Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) or the lessor under such lease or subject to a security interest in favor of the secured party under any conditional sale or other security agreement as the result of any such Engine being installed on such airframe at any time while such airframe is subject to such lease or conditional sale or other security agreement.

The Trustee acknowledges that any charter or “wet lease” or other similar arrangement under which the Grantor maintains operational control of an Aircraft shall not constitute a delivery, transfer or relinquishment of possession for purposes of this Section 6.01(a).

(b) Operation and Use. The Grantor agrees that such Aircraft will not be maintained, used, serviced, repaired, overhauled or operated in violation of any law, rule or regulation of any government of any country having jurisdiction over such Aircraft or in violation of any airworthiness certificate, license or registration relating to such Aircraft issued by any such government, except (i) immaterial violations, (ii) to the extent the Grantor is contesting in good faith the validity or application of any such law, rule or regulation or airworthiness certificate, license or registration in any manner that does not involve any material risk of sale, forfeiture or loss of such Aircraft or impair the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement; or (iii) if it is not possible for the Grantor to comply with the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States (or other than any jurisdiction in which such Aircraft is then registered) because of a conflict with the applicable laws of the United States (or such jurisdiction in which such Aircraft is then registered). The Grantor will not operate such Aircraft, or permit such Aircraft to be operated or located, (i) in any area excluded from coverage by any insurance required by Section 6.05 or (ii) in any war zone or recognized or, in the Grantor’s judgment, threatened areas of hostilities unless covered by war risk insurance, to the extent war risk insurance is required pursuant to Section 6.05, unless in the case of either clause (i) or (ii), (x) governmental indemnification in the amount of any insurance that would otherwise be required pursuant to Section 6.05 has been provided or (y) such Aircraft is only temporarily located in such area as a result of an isolated occurrence or isolated series of occurrences attributable to a hijacking, medical emergency, equipment malfunction, weather conditions, navigational error or other similar unforeseen circumstances and the Grantor is using its good faith efforts to remove such Aircraft from such area as promptly as practicable.

(c) Maintenance. The Grantor shall maintain, service, repair and overhaul such Aircraft (or cause the same to be done) (i) so as to keep such Aircraft in as good operating condition as on the applicable Aircraft Closing Date for such Aircraft, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and in such condition as may be necessary to enable the airworthiness certification of such Aircraft to be maintained in good standing at all times (other than during temporary periods of storage, during maintenance or modification permitted hereunder, or during periods of grounding by applicable governmental authorities) under the Transportation Code, during such periods in which such Aircraft is registered under the laws of the United States, or, if such Aircraft is registered under the laws of any other jurisdiction, the applicable laws of such

F-17

jurisdiction and (ii) using the same standards as the Grantor or, in the case of a lease permitted pursuant to Section 6.01(a), the applicable Permitted Lessee uses with respect to similar aircraft operated by the Grantor or such Permitted Lessee, as the case may be, in similar circumstances (in any case, without limitation of the Grantor’s obligations under the preceding clause (i)).

In any case such Aircraft will be maintained in accordance with a maintenance program for such model of Aircraft, approved by the FAA or, if such Aircraft is not registered in the United States, (i) the EASA or the JAA, (ii) the central aviation authority of Australia, Canada, Japan or New Zealand, or (iii) the central aviation authority of any country with aircraft maintenance standards that are substantially similar to those of the United States or any of the foregoing authorities or countries. The Grantor shall maintain or cause to be maintained all records, logs and other documents required to be maintained in respect of such Aircraft by appropriate authorities in the jurisdiction in which such Aircraft is registered.

(d) Identification of Trustee’s Interest. The Grantor agrees to affix as promptly as practicable after the applicable Aircraft Closing Date for such Aircraft and thereafter to maintain in the cockpit of such Aircraft, in a clearly visible location, and (if not prevented by applicable law or regulations or by any government) on each such Engine, a nameplate bearing the inscription “MORTGAGED TO [NAME OF TRUSTEE], AS TRUSTEE” (such nameplate to be replaced, if necessary, with a nameplate reflecting the name of any successor Trustee). If any such nameplate is damaged beyond repair or becomes illegible, the Grantor shall as promptly as practicable replace it with a nameplate complying with the requirements of this Section.

(e) Registration. The Grantor shall cause such Aircraft to remain duly registered, under the laws of the United States, in the name of the Grantor except as otherwise required by the Transportation Code; provided that the Trustee shall, at the Grantor’s expense, execute and deliver all such documents as the Grantor may reasonably request for the purpose of continuing such registration. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Grantor, at its own expense, may cause or allow such Aircraft to be duly registered under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction in which a Permitted Lessee could be principally based, in the name of the Grantor or of any nominee of the Grantor, or, if required by applicable law, in the name of any other Person (and, following any such foreign registration, may cause such Aircraft to be re-registered under the laws of the United States); provided, that in the case of jurisdictions other than those approved by the Trustee, (i) if such jurisdiction is at the time of registration listed on Exhibit B, the Trustee shall have received at the time of such registration an opinion of counsel to the Grantor to the effect that (A) this Aircraft Security Agreement and the Trustee’s right to repossession hereunder is valid and enforceable under the laws of such country, (B) after giving effect to such change in registration, the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement shall continue as a valid Lien and shall be duly perfected in the new jurisdiction of registration and that all filing, recording or other action necessary to perfect and protect the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement has been accomplished (or if such opinion cannot be given at such time, (x) the opinion shall detail what filing, recording or other action is necessary and (y) the Trustee shall have received a certificate from a Responsible Officer that all possible preparations to accomplish such filing, recording and other action shall have been done, and such filing, recording and other action shall be accomplished and a supplemental opinion to that effect shall be promptly delivered to the Trustee subsequent to the effective date of such change in registration), (C) the obligations of the Grantor under this Aircraft Security Agreement shall remain valid, binding and (subject to

F-18

customary bankruptcy and equitable remedies exceptions and to other exceptions customary in foreign opinions generally) enforceable under the laws of such jurisdiction (or the laws of the jurisdiction to which the laws of such jurisdiction would refer as the applicable governing law) and (D) all approvals or consents of any government in such jurisdiction having jurisdiction required for such change in registration shall have been duly obtained and shall be in full force and effect, and (ii) if such jurisdiction is at the time of registration not listed on Exhibit B, the Trustee shall have received (in addition to the opinions set forth in clause (i) above) at the time of such registration an opinion of counsel to the Grantor to the effect that (A) the terms of this Aircraft Security Agreement are legal, valid, binding and enforceable in such jurisdiction (subject to exceptions customary in such jurisdiction; provided, that, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally, and to general principles of equity, any applicable laws limiting the remedies provided in Section 4.01 do not in the opinion of such counsel make the remedies provided in Section 4.01 inadequate for the practical realization of the rights and benefits provided thereby), (B) that it is not necessary as a result of such change of registration or for the enforcement or validity of the Aircraft Security Agreement (and without regard to any other activity of the Trustee in such jurisdiction) for the Trustee to register or qualify to do business in such jurisdiction, (C) that there is no tort liability of the lender of an aircraft not in possession thereof under the laws of such jurisdiction other than tort liability that might have been imposed on such lender under the laws of the United States or any state thereof (it being understood that such opinion shall be waived if insurance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee is provided, at the Grantor’s expense, to cover such risk) and (D) (unless the Grantor shall have agreed to provide insurance covering the risk of requisition of use or title of such Aircraft by the government of such jurisdiction so long as such Aircraft is registered under the laws of such jurisdiction) that the laws of such jurisdiction require fair compensation by the government of such jurisdiction payable in currency freely convertible into Dollars for the loss of use or title of such Aircraft in the event of requisition by such government of such use or title. The Trustee will cooperate with the Grantor in effecting such foreign registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to any such change in the country of registry of such Aircraft, the following conditions shall be met (or waived as provided in Section 8.15):

(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the effective date of the change in registration; provided, that it shall not be necessary to comply with this condition if the change in registration results in the registration of such Aircraft under the laws of the United States or if the Trustee consents to such change in registration;

(ii) the Trustee shall have received evidence of compliance with Section 6.05 with respect to such Aircraft (which may be an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the Grantor has determined that the insurance maintained with respect to such Aircraft so complies); and

(iii) the Grantor shall have paid or made provision reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee for the payment of all reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) of the Trustee in connection with such change in registration.

F-19

The Grantor shall (i) take such actions as may be required to be taken by the Grantor so that any International Interest arising in relation to this Aircraft Security Agreement, such Aircraft, any Replacement Aircraft therefor, any such Engine or any Replacement Engine therefor may be duly registered (and any such registration may be assigned, amended, extended or discharged) at the International Registry, and (ii) obtain from the International Registry all approvals as may be required duly and timely to perform the Grantor’s obligations under this Aircraft Security Agreement with respect to the registration of any such International Interest. The Trustee shall take all actions necessary with respect to the International Registry to consent to the Grantor’s initiation of any registrations required under this Aircraft Security Agreement to enable the Grantor to complete such registrations, including, without limitation, registering on the International Registry as a “transacting user entity” (as defined in the Cape Town Treaty), if not already so registered, and appointing Daugherty, Fowler, Peregrin, Xxxxxx & Xxxxxx, a Professional Corporation, as its “professional user entity” (as defined in the Cape Town Treaty) to consent to any registrations on the International Registry with respect to such Airframe or any such Engine.

Section 6.02. Inspection. At all reasonable times, but upon at least 15 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Grantor, the Trustee or its authorized representative may, subject to the other conditions of this Section 6.02, inspect such Aircraft and may inspect the books and records of the Grantor required to be maintained by the FAA or the government of another jurisdiction in which such Aircraft is then registered relating to the maintenance of such Aircraft; provided that (i) the Trustee or its representative shall be fully insured at no cost to the Grantor in a manner satisfactory to the Grantor with respect to any risks incurred in connection with any such inspection or shall provide to the Grantor a written release satisfactory to the Grantor with respect to such risks, (ii) any such inspection shall be subject to the safety, security and workplace rules applicable at the location where such inspection is conducted and any applicable governmental rules or regulations, (iii) any such inspection of such Aircraft shall be a visual, walk-around inspection of the interior and exterior of such Aircraft and shall not include opening any panels, bays or the like without the Grantor’s express consent, which consent the Grantor may in its sole discretion withhold, and (iv) no exercise of such inspection right shall interfere with the use, operation or maintenance of such Aircraft by, or the business of, the Grantor and the Grantor shall not be required to undertake or incur any additional liabilities in connection therewith. All information obtained in connection with any such inspection of such Aircraft and of such books and records shall be held confidential by the Trustee and each agent or representative thereof and shall not be furnished or disclosed by any of them to anyone other than their respective bank examiners, auditors, accountants, agents and legal counsel, and except as may be required by an order of any court or administrative agency or by any statute, rule, regulation or order of any governmental authority. Any inspection pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be at the sole risk (including, without limitation, any risk of personal injury or death) and expense of the Trustee (or its representative), as the case may be, making such inspection. Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, all inspections by the Trustee and its representatives provided for under this Section 6.02 shall be limited to one inspection of any kind contemplated by this Section 6.02 for all such Aircraft during any calendar year.

Section 6.03. Replacement and Pooling of Parts; Alterations, Modifications and Additions; Substitution of Engines.

(a) Replacement of Parts. The Grantor, at its own expense, shall promptly replace all Parts that may from time to time be incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or any such Engine and that may from time to time become worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or rendered permanently unfit for use for any reason whatsoever, except as otherwise provided in Section 6.03(c) or if such Airframe or any such Engine to which a Part relates has suffered an Event of Loss. In addition, the Grantor, at its own expense, may remove in the ordinary course of maintenance, service, repair, overhaul or testing, any Parts, whether or not worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or rendered permanently unfit for use; provided that the Grantor, except as otherwise provided in Section 6.03(c), at its own expense, will replace such Parts as promptly as practicable. All replacement Parts shall be free and clear of all Liens (except for Permitted Liens and except in the case of replacement property temporarily installed on an emergency basis) and shall have a value and utility at least equal to the Parts replaced, assuming such replaced Parts were in the condition and repair required to be maintained by the terms hereof. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.03(c), all Parts at any time removed from such Airframe or any such Engine shall remain subject to the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement no matter where located until such time as such Parts shall be replaced by parts that have been incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or such Engine and that meet the requirements for replacement Parts specified above. Immediately upon any replacement Part becoming incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or any such Engine as above provided (except in the case of replacement property temporarily installed on an emergency basis), without further act, (i) the replaced Part shall thereupon be free and clear of the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement and of all rights and interests of the Trustee (and the other beneficiaries hereof) and shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder and (ii) such replacement Part shall become subject to the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement and be deemed a Part of such Airframe or such Engine for all purposes to the same extent as the Parts originally incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or such Engine. Upon request of the Grantor from time to time, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Grantor an appropriate instrument confirming the release of any such replaced Part from the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement.

(b) Pooling of Parts. Any Part removed from such Airframe or any such Engine as provided in Section 6.03(a) may be subjected by the Grantor or a Person permitted to be in possession of such Aircraft to a pooling arrangement customary in the airline industry entered into in the ordinary course of the Grantor’s or such Person’s business; provided that the part replacing such removed Part shall be incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or such Engine in accordance with Section 6.03(a) as promptly as practicable after the removal of such removed Part. In addition, any replacement Part when incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or any such Engine may be owned by any third party subject to such a pooling arrangement; provided that the Grantor, at its expense, as promptly thereafter as practicable, either (i) causes title to such replacement Part to vest in the Grantor free and clear of all Liens (except Permitted Liens), or (ii) replaces such replacement Part by incorporating or installing in or attaching to such Airframe or such Engine a further replacement Part in the manner contemplated by Section 6.03(a).

(c) Alterations, Modifications and Additions. The Grantor will make (or cause to be made) such alterations and modifications in and additions to such Airframe and each such Engine as may be required from time to time to meet the applicable requirements of the FAA or any applicable government of any other jurisdiction in which such Aircraft may then be

F-21

registered; provided that the Grantor may, in good faith, contest the validity or application of any such requirement in any manner that does not involve any material risk of sale, loss or forfeiture of such Aircraft and does not adversely affect the Trustee’s interest in the Aircraft Collateral. In addition, the Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee), at its own expense, may from time to time add further parts or accessories and make or cause to be made such alterations and modifications in and additions to such Airframe or any such Engine as the Grantor may deem desirable in the proper conduct of its business, including, without limitation, removal (without replacement) of Parts, provided that no such alteration, modification or addition shall materially diminish the value or utility of such Airframe or such Engine below its value or utility, immediately prior to such alteration, modification or addition, assuming that such Airframe or such Engine was then in the condition required to be maintained by the terms of this Aircraft Security Agreement, except that the value (but not the utility) of such Airframe or such Engine may be reduced by the value of any such Parts that shall have been removed that the Grantor deems obsolete or no longer suitable or appropriate for use on such Airframe or such Engine. All Parts incorporated or installed in or attached or added to such Airframe or any such Engine as the result of such alteration, modification or addition shall be free and clear of any Liens, other than Permitted Liens, and shall, without further act, be subject to the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantor (or any Permitted Lessee) may, at any time, remove any Part from such Airframe or any such Engine if such Part: (i) is in addition to, and not in replacement of or substitution for, any Part originally incorporated or installed in or attached to such Airframe or such Engine at the time of delivery thereof to the Grantor or any Part in replacement of, or substitution for, any such Part, (ii) is not required to be incorporated or installed in or attached or added to such Airframe or such Engine pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 6.03(c) or Section 6.01(d) and (iii) can be removed from such Airframe or such Engine without materially diminishing the value or utility required to be maintained by the terms of this Aircraft Security Agreement that such Airframe or such Engine would have had had such Part never been installed on such Airframe or such Engine. Upon the removal by the Grantor of any Part as permitted by this Section 6.03(c), such removed Part shall, without further act, be free and clear of the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement and of all rights and interests of the Trustee (and the other beneficiaries hereof) and shall no longer be deemed a Part hereunder. Upon request of the Grantor from time to time, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Grantor an appropriate instrument confirming the release of any such removed Part from the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement.

(d) Substitution of Engines. The Grantor shall have the right at its option at any time, on at least 30 days’ prior written notice to the Trustee, to substitute a Replacement Engine for any such Engine. In such event, and prior to the date of such substitution, the Grantor shall replace such Engine hereunder by complying with the terms of Section 6.04(b) to the same extent as if an Event of Loss had occurred with respect to such Engine.

Section 6.04. Loss, Destruction or Requisition.

(a) Event of Loss with Respect to Such Airframe. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Loss with respect to such Airframe or such Airframe and any such Engine then installed thereon, the Grantor shall as promptly as practicable (and, in any event, within 15 days after such occurrence, or, in the case of an occurrence described in clause (a) of the definition of Event of

F-22

Loss, within 15 days after the determination of such) give the Trustee written notice of such Event of Loss, and, within 90 days after such Event of Loss, the Grantor may give the Trustee written notice (an “Election Notice”) of its election to substitute, on or before the applicable Substitution Date (as defined below), as replacement for such Airframe and its related Engines (whether or not such Engines were affected by such Event of Loss), a Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines to be owned by the Grantor free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens); provided that (i) the Appraised Value of the Replacement Aircraft (of which such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines are part) shall be greater than or equal to the Appraised Value of the Aircraft (of which such Airframe and its related Engines are part); and (ii) the Appraisal used to calculate the Appraised Value of such Replacement Aircraft shall have been performed by the applicable appraiser no earlier than 45 days prior to the date of such Election Notice. If the Grantor shall not deliver such Election Notice within the time period for such Election Notice specified in the first sentence of this Section 6.04(a) or shall not perform its obligation to effect such substitution on or prior to such Substitution Date, then at such time such Event of Loss shall constitute a Disposition of Aircraft Collateral that is not a Permitted Disposition for purposes of Section 6.04 of the Credit Agreement.

The “Substitution Date,” with respect to an Event of Loss, means the Business Day next succeeding the 120th day following the date of occurrence of such Event of Loss.

If the Grantor elects to substitute a Replacement Airframe (or a Replacement Airframe and one or more Replacement Engines, as the case may be) pursuant to this Section 6.04(a), the Grantor shall, at its sole expense, not later than the applicable Substitution Date, (A) cause an Aircraft Security Agreement Supplement for such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, to be delivered to the Trustee for execution and, upon such execution, to be filed for recordation pursuant to the Transportation Code or the applicable laws of such other jurisdiction in which the applicable Aircraft may then be registered, (B) cause the sale of such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, to the Grantor (if the seller of such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, is “situated in” a country that has ratified the Cape Town Convention) and the International Interest created pursuant to such Aircraft Security Agreement Supplement in favor of the Trustee with respect to such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, each to be registered on the International Registry as a sale or an International Interest, respectively; provided that if the seller of such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, is not situated in a country that has ratified the Cape Town Convention, the Grantor will use its reasonable efforts to cause the seller to register the contract of sale on the International Registry, (C) cause a financing statement or statements with respect to such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, or other requisite documents or instruments to be filed in such place or places as necessary in order to perfect the Trustee’s interest therein in the United States, or in any other jurisdiction in which the applicable Aircraft may then be registered, (D) furnish the Trustee with an opinion of the Grantor’s counsel (which may be the Grantor’s General Counsel or such other internal counsel of the Grantor as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee) addressed to the Trustee to the effect that upon such replacement, such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, will be subject to the Lien of this Aircraft Security Agreement and addressing the matters set forth in clauses (A), (B) and (C), (E) furnish the Trustee with evidence of compliance with Section 6.05 with respect to such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any

F-23

(which may be an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that the Grantor has determined that the insurance maintained with respect to such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any, so complies); and (F) furnish the Trustee with a copy of the original xxxx(s) of sale or, if the xxxx(s) of sale are unavailable, other evidence of ownership reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (which may be a copy of an invoice or purchase order) respecting such Replacement Airframe and Replacement Engines, if any.

CREDIT AND GUARANTY AGREEMENT

Description of Security Agreement for Spare Engines

The Aircraft Security Agreement(s), which may be entered into in the future by a Grantor to pledge any spare engine to a trustee (the “Security Trustee”) acting on behalf of the Collateral Agent, as Additional Collateral or Qualified Replacement Assets will contain terms to the following effect with respect to such spare engine.

Maintenance and operation

The Grantor will be obligated at its expense to maintain, service, repair, and overhaul such spare engine (or cause the same to be done) so as to keep it in such condition as necessary to maintain the airworthiness certificate for the aircraft upon which such spare engine is installed (the “Related Aircraft”) in good standing at all times (other than during temporary periods of storage, maintenance, testing or modification or during periods of grounding by applicable governmental authorities).

The Grantor will agree that such spare engine shall not be maintained, used, serviced, repaired, overhauled or operated, in violation of any law, rule or regulation of any government having jurisdiction over the Related Aircraft, or in violation of any airworthiness certificate, license or registration relating to the Related Aircraft issued by such government, except to the extent the Grantor (or any lessee) is contesting in good faith the validity or application of any such law, rule or regulation or airworthiness certificate, license or registration in any manner that does not involve any material risk of sale, forfeiture or loss of such spare engine or impair the lien of the Aircraft Security Agreement with respect to such spare engine.

The Grantor must make (or cause to be made) all alterations, modifications, and additions to such spare engine necessary to meet the applicable requirements of the FAA or any other applicable governmental authority of another jurisdiction in which the Related Aircraft may then be registered; provided that the Grantor (or any lessee) may in good faith contest the validity or application of any such requirement in any manner that does not involve, among other things, a material risk of sale, forfeiture or loss of such spare engine, and does not adversely affect the Security Trustee’s interest in such spare engine under (and as defined in) the Aircraft Security Agreement. The Grantor (or any lessee) may add further parts and make other alterations, modifications and additions to such spare engine as the Grantor (or any such lessee) may deem desirable in the proper conduct of its business, including removal (without replacement) of parts, so long as such alterations, modifications, additions, or removals do not materially diminish the value or utility of such spare engine below its value or utility immediately prior to such alteration, modification, addition, or removal (assuming such spare engine was maintained in accordance with the Aircraft Security Agreement), except that the value (but not the utility) of such spare engine may be reduced from time to time by the value of any parts which have been

removed that the Grantor (or any such lessee) deems obsolete or no longer suitable or appropriate for use on such spare engine. All parts (with certain exceptions) incorporated or installed in or added to such spare engine as a result of such alterations, modifications or additions will be subject to the lien of the Aircraft Security Agreement. The Grantor (or any lessee) will be permitted to remove (without replacement) parts that are in addition to, and not in replacement of or substitution for, any part originally incorporated or installed in or attached to such spare engine at the time of delivery thereof to the Grantor, as well as any part that is not required to be incorporated or installed in or attached to such spare engine pursuant to applicable requirements of the FAA or the applicable aviation authority of any other jurisdiction in which the Related Aircraft may then be registered, or any part that can be removed without materially diminishing the requisite value or utility of such spare engine.

Except as set forth above, the Grantor will be obligated to replace or cause to be replaced all parts that are incorporated or installed in or attached to such spare engine and become worn out, lost, stolen, destroyed, seized, confiscated, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered unfit for use. Any such replacement parts will become subject to the lien of the Aircraft Security Agreement in lieu of the part replaced.

Registration, leasing and possession

The Grantor will be required to record the Aircraft Security Agreement with the FAA. In addition, the Grantor will register the “international interests” created pursuant to the Aircraft Security Agreement under the Cape Town Convention on International Interests in Mobile Equipment and the related Aircraft Equipment Protocol (the “Cape Town Treaty”). The Grantor will be permitted, subject to certain limitations, to lease such spare engine to any United States certificated air carrier, to certain foreign air carriers or to certain manufacturers of airframes or engines (or their affiliates acting under an unconditional guarantee of such manufacturer). In addition, subject to certain limitations, the Grantor will be permitted to transfer possession of such spare engine, other than by lease, including transfers of possession by the Grantor or any lessee in connection with certain interchange and pooling arrangements, “wet leases,” and transfers in connection with maintenance or modifications and transfers to the government of the United States, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, The Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom or any instrumentality or agency thereof. There will be no general geographical restriction on the Grantor’s (or any lessee’s) ability to operate such spare engine.

Insurance

With respect to such spare engine, the Grantor will maintain insurance, against such risks, including fire and other risks, as is prudent and customary for United States based passenger airlines of similar size insuring similar assets.

In addition, each Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby, agrees that each Junior Priority Collateral Document consisting of a mortgage covering any Collateral consisting of real estate shall contain language appropriate to reflect the subordination of such Junior Priority Collateral Documents to the corresponding Senior Priority Collateral Documents.

(d) Except as may be separately otherwise agreed in writing by and between or among any applicable Senior Priority Agents, in each case on behalf of itself and the Senior Priority Creditors represented thereby, each Senior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Senior Priority Creditors represented thereby, hereby agrees that, without affecting the obligations of such Senior Priority Secured Parties hereunder, any other Senior Priority Agent and any Senior Priority Creditors represented thereby may, at any time and from time to time, in their sole discretion without the consent of or notice to any such Senior Priority Secured Party (except to the extent such notice or consent is required pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement) and without incurring any liability to any such Senior Priority Secured Party, amend, restate, supplement, replace, refinance, extend, consolidate, restructure, or otherwise modify any of the Senior Priority Documents to which such other Senior Priority Agent or any Senior Priority Creditor represented thereby is party or beneficiary in any manner whatsoever, including, to:

(ii) retain or obtain a Lien on any Property of any Person to secure any of the Senior Priority Obligations, and in connection therewith to enter into any Senior Priority Documents;

(iv) release its Lien on any Collateral and/or any Excluded Cash Collateral or other Property;

(v) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any Loan Party or any other Person;

(vi) retain or obtain the primary or secondary obligation of any other Person with respect to any of the Senior Priority Obligations; and

(vii) otherwise manage and supervise the Senior Priority Obligations as such other Senior Priority Agent shall deem appropriate.

(e) Except, in each case, as may be separately otherwise agreed in writing by and between or among any applicable Junior Priority Agents, in each case on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, each Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, hereby agrees that, without affecting the obligations of such Junior Priority Secured Parties hereunder, any other Junior Priority Agent and any Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby may, at any time and from time to time, in their sole discretion without the consent of or notice to any such Junior Priority Secured Party (except to the extent such notice or consent is required pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement), and without incurring any liability to any such Junior Priority Secured Party, amend, restate, supplement, replace, refinance, extend, consolidate, restructure, or otherwise modify any of the Junior Priority Documents to which such other Junior Priority Agent or any Junior Priority Creditor represented thereby is party or beneficiary in any manner whatsoever, including, to:

(ii) retain or obtain a Lien on any Property of any Person to secure any of the Junior Priority Obligations, and in connection therewith to enter into any Junior Priority Documents;

(iv) release its Lien on any Collateral or other Property;

(v) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any Loan Party or any other Person;

(vi) retain or obtain the primary or secondary obligation of any other Person with respect to any of the Junior Priority Obligations; and

(vii) otherwise manage and supervise the Junior Priority Obligations as such other Junior Priority Agent shall deem appropriate.

(f) The Senior Priority Obligations and the Junior Priority Obligations may be refunded, replaced or refinanced, in whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is required to permit the refunding, replacement or refinancing transaction under any Senior Priority Document or any Junior Priority Document) of any Senior Priority Agent, Senior Priority Creditors, Junior Priority Agent or Junior Priority Creditors, as the case may be, all without affecting the Lien Priorities provided for herein or the

other provisions hereof; provided, however, that, if the indebtedness refunding, replacing or refinancing any such Senior Priority Obligations or Junior Priority Obligations is to constitute Senior Priority Obligations or Junior Priority Obligations hereunder (as designated by the Company), as the case may be, the holders of such indebtedness (or an authorized agent or trustee on their behalf) bind themselves in writing to the terms of this Agreement pursuant to a joinder substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto or otherwise in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Senior Priority Agents (other than any Designated Agent) and Junior Priority Agents (other than any Designated Agent) (or, if there is no continuing Agent other than Designated Agent, as designated by the Company), and any such refunding, replacement or refinancing transaction shall be in accordance with any applicable provisions of the Senior Priority Documents and the Junior Priority Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, the Senior Priority Obligations and Junior Priority Obligations may be refunded, replaced or refinanced, in whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is required to permit the refunding, replacement or refinancing transaction under any Senior Priority Document or any Junior Priority Document) of any Senior Priority Agent, Senior Priority Creditors, Junior Priority Agent or Junior Priority Creditors, as the case may be, through the incurrence of Additional Indebtedness, subject to Section 7.11 hereof.

Section 5.03 Reinstatement and Continuation of Agreement. If any Senior Priority Agent or Senior Priority Creditor is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of any Loan Party or any other Person any payment made in satisfaction of all or any portion of the Senior Priority Obligations (a “Senior Priority Recovery”), then the relevant Senior Priority Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Senior Priority Recovery. In the event that (a) this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Senior Priority Recovery and (b) there exist any Junior Priority Obligations at the time of such Senior Priority Recovery, then this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect in the event of such Senior Priority Recovery, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair, or otherwise affect the obligations of the Parties from such date of reinstatement. All rights, interests, agreements, and obligations of each Agent, each Senior Priority Creditor, and each Junior Priority Creditor under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall continue irrespective of the commencement of, or any discharge, confirmation, conversion, or dismissal of, any Insolvency Proceeding by or against any Loan Party or any other circumstance which otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party in respect of the Senior Priority Obligations or the Junior Priority Obligations. No priority or right of any Senior Priority Agent or any Senior Priority Creditor shall at any time be prejudiced or impaired in any way by any act or failure to act on the part of any Borrower or any Guarantor or by the noncompliance by any Person with the terms, provisions, or covenants of any of the Senior Priority Documents, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any Senior Priority Agent or any Senior Priority Creditor may have.

Section 5.04 Excluded Cash Collateral. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, it is understood and agreed that this Agreement shall not restrict the rights of the Original First Lien Agent or the other Original First Lien Secured Parties to pursue enforcement proceedings, exercise remedies or make determinations with respect to the Excluded Cash Collateral or otherwise take actions with respect to the Excluded Cash Collateral in accordance with the Original First Lien Credit Agreement and such Excluded Cash Collateral shall be applied as specified in the Original First Lien Credit Agreement and will not constitute

Collateral hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to impair the right of any Original First Lien Secured Party to recoup, set off, net or off-set amounts (including amounts delivered as margin or cash collateral) to satisfy such Original First Lien Obligations secured by Excluded Cash Collateral to the extent permitted under the Original First Lien Credit Agreement, or exercise its rights and remedies with respect to any Excluded Cash Collateral pledged for its sole benefit or as a beneficiary under and pursuant to any other credit support issued solely in its favor, each of which will be governed by the terms of the Original First Lien Credit Agreement.

ARTICLE VI.

INSOLVENCY PROCEEDINGS

Section 6.01 DIP Financing.

(a) If any Borrower or any Guarantor shall be subject to any Insolvency Proceeding in the United States at any time prior to the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, and the Senior Priority Representative shall agree on behalf of the Senior Priority Creditors to allow all one or more Senior Priority Creditors to provide any Borrower or any Guarantor with, or the Senior Priority Representative shall consent to a third party providing, any financing under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or consent to any order for the use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (“DIP Financing”), with such DIP Financing to be secured by all or any portion of the Collateral (including assets that, but for the application of Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code would be Collateral) and/or entitled to a superpriority claim under Section 364 or 507 of the Bankruptcy Code, then any Junior Priority Agent, each on behalf of itself and any Junior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby, agrees that it will raise no objection and will not directly or indirectly support any objection to such DIP Financing or to Liens securing the same or the superpriority claim to which such DIP Financing is entitled on the grounds of a failure to provide “adequate protection” for the Liens of any Junior Priority Agent securing the Junior Priority Obligations or on any other grounds (and will not request any adequate protection solely as a result of such DIP Financing) so long as (i) such Junior Priority Agent retains its Lien on the Collateral to secure the relevant Junior Priority Obligations (in each case, including Proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of the case under the Bankruptcy Code) and such Lien has the same priority relative to the Senior Priority Liens as existed prior to the commencement of the case under the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) if the Senior Priority Agent receives an adequate protection Lien on assets of such Borrower or Guarantor to secure the Senior Priority Obligations, as the case may be, each Junior Priority Agent also receives an adequate protection Lien on such assets of such Borrower or Guarantor to secure the relevant Junior Priority Obligations, provided that (x) such Liens in favor of the Senior Priority Agent and the Junior Priority Agent shall be subject to the provisions of Section 6.01(b) hereof and (y) the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.01(a) shall not prevent any Junior Priority Agent and the Junior Priority Secured Parties from objecting to any provision in any DIP Financing relating to any provision or content of a Plan of Reorganization that is not a Conforming Plan Reorganization.

(b) All Liens granted to any Senior Priority Agent or Junior Priority Agent in any Insolvency Proceeding, whether as adequate protection or otherwise, are intended by the Parties to be and shall be deemed to be subject to the Lien Priority and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not alter any super-priority of any Liens securing any DIP Financing in accordance with this Section 6.01.

Section 6.02 Relief from Stay. Until the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, each Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees not to seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any portion of the Collateral without each Senior Priority Agent’s express written consent.

Section 6.03 No Contest. Each Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that, prior to the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, none of them shall contest (or directly or indirectly support any other Person contesting) (i) any request by any Senior Priority Agent or Senior Priority Creditor for adequate protection of its interest in the Collateral (unless in contravention of Section 6.01 hereof), or (ii) any objection by any Senior Priority Agent or Senior Priority Creditor to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on a claim by such Senior Priority Agent or Senior Priority Creditor that its interests in the Collateral (unless in contravention of Section 6.01 hereof) are not adequately protected (or any other similar request under any law applicable to an Insolvency Proceeding), so long as any Liens granted to such Senior Priority Agent as adequate protection of its interests are subject to this Agreement. Except as may be separately otherwise agreed in writing by and between or among any applicable Senior Priority Agents, in each case on behalf of itself and any Senior Priority Creditors represented thereby, any Senior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and any Senior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that, prior to the applicable Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, none of them shall directly or indirectly contest (or support any other Person contesting) (a) any request by any other Senior Priority Agent or any Senior Priority Creditor represented by such other Senior Priority Agent for adequate protection of its interest in the Collateral (unless in contravention of Section 6.01 hereof), or (b) any objection by such other Senior Priority Agent or any Senior Priority Creditor to any motion, relief, action, or proceeding based on a claim by such other Senior Priority Agent or any Senior Priority Creditor represented by such other Senior Priority Agent that its interests in the Collateral (unless in contravention of Section 6.01 hereof) are not adequately protected (or any other similar request under any law applicable to an Insolvency Proceeding), so long as any Liens granted to such other Senior Priority Agent as adequate protection of its interests are subject to this Agreement. Except as may be separately otherwise agreed in writing by and between or among any applicable Junior Priority Agents, in each case on behalf of itself and any Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, any Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and any Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that, prior to the applicable Discharge of Junior Priority Obligations, none of them shall directly or indirectly contest (or support any other Person contesting) (a) any request by any other Junior Priority Agent or any Junior Priority Creditor represented by such other Junior Priority Agent for adequate protection of its interest in the Collateral (unless in contravention of Section 6.01 hereof), or (b) any objection by such other Junior Priority Agent or any Junior Priority Creditor to any motion, relief, action, or proceeding based on a claim by such other Junior Priority Agent or any Junior Priority Creditor represented by such other Junior Priority Agent that its interests in the Collateral (unless in contravention of Section 6.01 hereof) are not adequately protected (or any other similar request under any law applicable to an Insolvency Proceeding), so long as any Liens granted to such other Junior Priority Agent as adequate protection of its interests are subject to this Agreement.

Section 6.04 Asset Sales. Each Junior Priority Agent agrees, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, that it will not oppose any sale consented to by the Senior Priority Representative of any Collateral pursuant to Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision under the law applicable to any Insolvency Proceeding) so long as the Liens granted to the Junior Priority Agents attach to the proceeds of such sale with the same priority and validity as such Liens or such Collateral and the proceeds of such sale are applied in accordance with this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 6.04 shall prevent any Junior Priority Creditors or the Junior Priority Agent on their behalf from (x) presenting a cash bid for any assets of any Loan Party, or purchasing such assets for cash at any sale hearing under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or at any public or judicial foreclosure sale or (y) making a credit bid for any assets of any Loan Party pursuant to Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code (provided that such credit bid may only be made if either the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations has occurred or will occur concurrently as a result of a cash bid for such assets in addition to such credit bid or the Senior Priority Agent approves such credit bid).

Section 6.05 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) the grants of Liens pursuant to the Senior Priority Collateral Documents and the Junior Priority Collateral Documents constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens and (ii) the Senior Priority Obligations are fundamentally different from the Junior Priority Obligations and must be separately classified in any Plan of Reorganization proposed or adopted in an Insolvency Proceeding because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the Senior Priority Secured Parties, on the one hand, and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, on the other hand, in respect of the Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims) or are classified in the same class of secured claims in any Plan of Reorganization, then the Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions with respect to the Collateral shall be made as if there were separate classes of Senior Priority Obligation claims and Junior Priority Obligation claims against the Loan Parties, with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the Junior Priority Secured Parties), the Senior Priority Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, prepetition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of postpetition interest that is available from the Collateral for each of the Senior Priority Secured Parties, before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Junior Priority Secured Parties, with the Junior Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Senior Priority Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing their aggregate recoveries. The foregoing sentence is subject to any separate agreement by and between any Additional Agent, on behalf of itself and the Additional Credit Facility Secured Parties represented thereby, and any other Additional Agent, on behalf of itself and the Additional Credit Facility Secured Parties represented thereby, with respect to the Obligations owing to any such Additional Agent and Additional Credit Facility Secured Parties.

Section 6.06 Enforceability. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be and shall be enforceable as a “subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.

Section 6.07 Senior Priority Obligations Unconditional. All rights of the Senior Priority Agents hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of the Junior Priority Agents and the Loan Parties (to the extent applicable) hereunder, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Senior Priority Document;

(ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any portion of the Senior Priority Obligations, or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, or any refinancing, replacement, refunding or restatement of any Senior Priority Document;

(iii) any exchange, release, voiding, avoidance or non perfection of any security interest in any Collateral or any other collateral, or any release, amendment, waiver or other modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, or any refinancing, replacement, refunding, restatement or increase of all or any portion of the Senior Priority Obligations or any guarantee or guaranty thereof;

(iv) the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any Borrower or any other Loan Party; or

(v) any other circumstances that otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party in respect of the Senior Priority Obligations, or of any of the Junior Priority Agent or any Loan Party, to the extent applicable, in respect of this Agreement.

Section 6.08 Junior Priority Obligations Unconditional. All rights of the Junior Priority Agents hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of the Senior Priority Agents and the Loan Parties (to the extent applicable) hereunder, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Junior Priority Document;

(ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any portion of the Junior Priority Obligations, or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, or any refinancing, replacement, refunding or restatement of any Junior Priority Document;

(iii) any exchange, release, voiding, avoidance or non perfection of any security interest in any Collateral, or any other collateral, or any release, amendment, waiver or other modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, or any refinancing, replacement, refunding, restatement or increase of all or any portion of the Junior Priority Obligations or any guarantee or guaranty thereof;

(iv) the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any Borrower or any other Loan Party; or

(v) any other circumstances that otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party in respect of the Junior Priority Obligations, or of any of the Senior Priority Agent or any Loan Party, to the extent applicable, in respect of this Agreement.

Section 6.09 Adequate Protection.

(a) Except as expressly provided in this Agreement (including Section 6.01 and this Section 6.09), nothing in this Agreement shall limit the rights of any Agent and the Secured Parties represented thereby from seeking or requesting adequate protection with respect to their interests in the applicable Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding, including adequate protection in the form of payments, periodic cash payments, cash payments of interest, additional collateral or otherwise; provided that (a) in the event that any Junior Priority Agent, on behalf of itself or any of the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of the relevant Junior Priority Obligations and such adequate protection is granted in the form of a Lien on additional collateral, then each Junior Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that (i) each Senior Priority Agent shall also be granted a senior Lien on such collateral as security for the Senior Priority Obligations owing to such Senior Priority Agent and the Senior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby, and that any Lien on such collateral securing the Junior Priority Obligations shall be junior to any Lien on such collateral securing the Senior Priority Obligations and (ii) each other Junior Priority Agent shall also be granted a pari passu Lien on such collateral as security for the Junior Priority Obligations owing to such other Junior Priority Agent and the Junior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby, and that any such Lien on such collateral securing such Junior Priority Obligations shall be pari passu to each such other Lien on such collateral securing such other Junior Priority Obligations (except as may be separately otherwise agreed in writing by and between or among any applicable Junior Priority Agents, in each case on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby), and (b) in the event that any Senior Priority Agent, for or on behalf of itself or any Senior Priority Creditor represented thereby, seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of the Senior Priority Obligations and such adequate protection is granted in the form of a Lien on additional collateral, then such Senior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Senior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that (i) each other Senior Priority Agent shall also be granted a pari passu Lien on such collateral as security for the Senior Priority Obligations owing to such other Senior Priority Agent and the Senior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby, and that any such Lien on such collateral securing such Senior Priority Obligations shall be pari passu to each such other Lien on such collateral securing such other Senior Priority Obligations (except as may be separately otherwise agreed in writing by and between or among any applicable Senior Priority Agents, in each case on behalf of itself and the Senior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby) and (ii) each Junior Priority Agent shall also be granted a junior Lien on such collateral as security for the Junior Priority Obligations owing to such other Junior Priority Agent and the Junior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby, and that any such Lien on such collateral securing such Junior Priority Obligations shall be junior to each Lien on such collateral securing Senior Priority Obligations.

(b) Any claim by any Junior Priority Secured Party under Section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code will be subordinate in right of payment to any claim of any Senior Priority Secured Party under Section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code and any payment thereof will be deemed to be Proceeds of Collateral, provided that, any such Junior Priority Secured Party will be deemed to have agreed pursuant to Section 1129(a)(9) of the Bankruptcy Code that such Section 507(b) claims may be paid under a Plan of Reorganization in any form having a value on the effective date of such Plan of Reorganization equal to the allowed amount of such claims.

Section 6.10 Certain Waivers.

(a) Each Junior Priority Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, waives any claim any Junior Priority Creditor may hereafter have against any Senior Priority Creditor arising out of the election by any Senior Priority Creditor of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, or any comparable provision of any other Bankruptcy Law.

(b) Each Junior Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that none of them shall (i) object, contest, or directly or indirectly support any other Person objecting to or contesting, any request by any Senior Priority Agent or any of the other Senior Priority Creditors for the payment of interest, fees, expenses or other amounts to such Senior Priority Agent or any other Senior Priority Creditor under Section 506(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, or (ii) assert or directly or indirectly support any claim against any Senior Priority Creditor for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any Collateral under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code or any similar provision of any other Bankruptcy Law.

(c) No Senior Priority Agent nor any other holder of Senior Priority Obligations shall object to, oppose, or challenge any claim by the Junior Priority Agent or any holder of Junior Priority Obligations for allowance in any Insolvency Proceeding of Junior Priority Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, default interest, premiums, fees, or expenses.

ARTICLE VII.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 7.01 Rights of Subrogation. Each Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that no payment by such Junior Priority Agent or any such Junior Priority Creditor to any Senior Priority Agent or Senior Priority Creditor pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement shall entitle such Junior Priority Agent or Junior Priority Creditor to exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations. Following the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations with respect to the Senior Priority Obligations, each Senior Priority Agent agrees to execute such documents, agreements, and instruments as any Junior Priority Agent or Junior Priority Creditor may reasonably request to evidence the transfer by subrogation to any such Person of an interest in the Senior Priority Obligations resulting from payments to such Senior Priority Agent by such Person, so long as all costs and expenses (including all reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incurred in connection therewith by such Senior Priority Agent are paid by such Person upon request for payment thereof.

Section 7.02 Further Assurances. The Parties will, at their own expense and at any time and from time to time, promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be necessary or desirable, or that any Party may reasonably request, in order to protect any right or interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable such Party to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder; provided, however, that no Party shall be required to pay over any payment or distribution, execute any instruments or documents, or take any other action referred to in this Section 7.02, to the extent that such action would contravene any law, order or other legal requirement or any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, and in the event of a controversy or dispute, such Party may interplead any payment or distribution in any court of competent jurisdiction, without further responsibility in respect of such payment or distribution under this Section 7.02.

Section 7.03 Agent Representations. The Original First Lien Agent represents and warrants to each other Agent that it has the requisite power and authority under the Original First Lien Documents to enter into, execute, deliver, and carry out the terms of this Agreement on behalf of itself and the Original First Lien Secured Parties. The [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Agent represents and warrants to each other Agent that it has the requisite power and authority under the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Documents to enter into, execute, deliver, and carry out the terms of this Agreement on behalf of itself and the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Creditors.

Section 7.04 Amendments.

(a) No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Party hereto, shall be effective unless it is in a written agreement executed by each Senior Priority Agent and each Junior Priority Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Original First Lien Borrower may, without the consent of any Party hereto, amend this Agreement to add an Additional Agent by (x) executing an Additional Indebtedness Joinder as provided in Section 7.11 or (y) executing a joinder agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto. No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure therefrom by any Party hereto, that changes, alters, modifies or otherwise affects any power, privilege, right, remedy, liability or obligation of, or otherwise affects in any manner, any Additional Agent that is not then a Party, or any Additional Credit Facility Secured Party not then represented by an Additional Agent that is then a Party (including but not limited to any change, alteration, modification or other effect upon any power, privilege, right, remedy, liability or obligation of or other effect upon any such Additional Agent or Additional Credit Facility Secured Party that may at any subsequent time become a Party or beneficiary hereof) shall be effective unless it is consented to in writing by the Original First Lien Borrower (regardless of whether any such Additional Agent or Additional Credit Facility Secured Party ever becomes a Party or beneficiary hereof). Any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement that would have the effect, directly or indirectly, through any reference in any Credit Document to this Agreement or otherwise, of waiving, amending, supplementing or otherwise modifying any Credit Document, or any term or provision thereof, or any right or obligation of the Original First Lien Borrower or any other

Loan Party thereunder or in respect thereof, shall not be given such effect except pursuant to a written instrument executed by the Original First Lien Borrower and each other affected Loan Party. No amendment to Section 5.02(a) or (b) shall be effective unless it is consented to in writing by the Original First Lien Borrower.

(b) In the event that any Senior Priority Agent or the requisite Senior Priority Creditors enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of or replace any Senior Priority Collateral Document for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any Senior Priority Collateral Document relating to the Collateral and/or any Excluded Cash Collateral or changing in any manner the rights of the Senior Priority Agent, the Senior Priority Creditors, or any Loan Party with respect to the Collateral and/or any Excluded Cash Collateral (including, subject to Section 2.04(b), the release of any Liens on Collateral), then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of each Junior Priority Collateral Document without the consent of or any actions by any Junior Priority Agent or any Junior Priority Creditors; provided, that such amendment, waiver or consent does not materially adversely affect the rights or interests of the Junior Priority Creditors in the Collateral (including any license or right of use granted to them by any Loan Party pursuant to any Junior Priority Collateral Document with respect to intellectual property owned by such Loan Party as it pertains to the rights or interests of the Junior Priority Creditors in the Collateral). The applicable Senior Priority Agent shall give written notice of such amendment, waiver or consent to the Junior Priority Agents and, if requested by any Junior Priority Agent, promptly provide copies of any documents executed and delivered in connection with such amendment, waiver or consent; provided that the failure to give such notice or provide such documents shall not affect the effectiveness of such amendment, waiver or consent with respect to the provisions of any Junior Priority Collateral Document as set forth in this Section 7.04(b).

Section 7.11 Designation of Additional Indebtedness; Joinder of Additional Agents.

(a) The Original First Lien Borrower may designate any Additional Indebtedness complying with the requirements of the definition of “Additional Indebtedness” as Additional Indebtedness for purposes of this Agreement, upon complying with the following conditions:

(i) one or more Additional Agents for one or more Additional Credit Facility Secured Parties in respect of such Additional Indebtedness shall have executed the Additional Indebtedness Joinder with respect to such Additional Indebtedness, and the Original First Lien Borrower or any such Additional Agent shall have delivered such executed Additional Indebtedness Joinder to the Original First Lien Agent, the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Agent and any other Additional Agent then party to this Agreement;

(ii) at least five Business Days (unless a shorter period is agreed in writing by the Parties and the Original First Lien Borrower) prior to delivery of the Additional Indebtedness Joinder, the Original First Lien Borrower shall have delivered to the Original First Lien Agent, the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Agent and any other Additional Agent then party to this Agreement complete and correct copies of any Additional Credit Facility, Additional Guarantees and Additional Collateral Documents that will govern such Additional Indebtedness upon giving effect to such designation (which may be unexecuted copies of Additional Documents to be executed and delivered concurrently with the effectiveness of such designation);

(iii) the Original First Lien Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Original First Lien Agent, the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Agent and any other Additional Agent then party to this Agreement the Additional Indebtedness Designation (including whether such Additional Indebtedness is designated Senior Priority Debt or Junior Priority Debt) with respect to such Additional Indebtedness;

(iv) all state and local stamp, recording, filing, intangible and similar taxes or fees (if any) that are payable in connection with the inclusion of such Additional Indebtedness under this Agreement shall have been paid and reasonable evidence thereof shall have been given to the Original First Lien Agent, the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Agent and any other Additional Agent then party to this Agreement; and

(v) any applicable requirement that no Event of Default exists or arises from the issuance of such Additional Indebtedness, or any applicable comparable requirement, shall have been satisfied or waived.

No Additional Indebtedness may be designated both Senior Priority Debt and Junior Priority Debt.

(b) Upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in the preceding Section 7.11(a), the designated Additional Indebtedness shall constitute “Additional Indebtedness”, any Additional Credit Facility under which such Additional Indebtedness is or may be incurred shall constitute an “Additional Credit Facility”, any holder of such Additional Indebtedness or other applicable Additional Credit Facility Secured Party shall constitute an “Additional Credit Facility Secured Party”, and any Additional Agent for any such Additional Credit Facility Secured Party shall constitute an “Additional Agent” for all purposes under this Agreement. The date on which such conditions specified in clause (a) shall have been satisfied with respect to any Additional Indebtedness is herein called the “Additional Effective Date” with respect to such Additional Indebtedness. Prior to the Additional Effective Date with respect to any Additional Indebtedness, all references herein to Additional Indebtedness shall be deemed not to take into account such Additional Indebtedness, and the rights and obligations of the Original First Lien Agent, the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Agent and each other Additional Agent then party to this Agreement shall be determined on the basis that such Additional Indebtedness is not then designated. On and after the Additional Effective Date with respect to such Additional Indebtedness, all references herein to Additional Indebtedness shall be deemed to take into account such Additional Indebtedness, and the rights and obligations of the Original First Lien Agent, the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Agent and each other Additional Agent then party to this Agreement shall be determined on the basis that such Additional Indebtedness is then designated.

(c) In connection with any designation of Additional Indebtedness pursuant to this Section 7.11, each of the Original First Lien Agent, the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Agent and each Additional Agent then party hereto agrees at the Original First Lien Borrower’s expense (x) to execute and deliver any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, any Original First Lien Collateral Documents, [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Priority Collateral Documents or Additional Collateral Documents, as applicable, and any agreements relating to any security interest in Control Collateral and Cash Collateral, and to make or consent to any filings or take any other actions (including executing and recording any mortgage subordination or similar agreement), as may be reasonably deemed by the Original First Lien Borrower to be necessary or reasonably desirable for any Lien on any Collateral to secure such Additional Indebtedness to become a valid and perfected Lien (with the priority contemplated by the applicable Additional Indebtedness Designation delivered pursuant to this Section 7.11 and by this Agreement), and (y) otherwise to reasonably cooperate to effectuate a designation of Additional Indebtedness pursuant to this Section 7.11 (including if requested, by executing an acknowledgment of any Additional Indebtedness Joinder or of the occurrence of any Additional Effective Date).

Section 7.12 Senior Priority Representative; Notice of Senior Priority Representative Change. The Senior Priority Representative shall act for the Senior Priority Secured Parties as provided in this Agreement, and shall be entitled to so act at the direction of the Requisite Senior Priority Holders from time to time. Until a Party (other than the existing Senior Priority Representative) receives written notice from the existing Senior Priority Representative, in accordance with Section 7.05 of this Agreement, of a change in the identity of the Senior Priority Representative, such Party shall be entitled to act as if the existing Senior Priority Representative is in fact the Senior Priority Representative. Each Party (other than the existing Senior Priority Representative) shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice of a change in the identity of the Senior Priority Representative which facially appears to be from the then existing Senior Priority Representative and is delivered in accordance with Section 7.05 and such Agent shall not be required to inquire into the veracity or genuineness of such notice. Each existing Senior Priority Representative from time to time agrees to give prompt written notice to each Party of any change in the identity of the Senior Priority Representative.

Section 7.13 [Reserved].

Section 7.14 Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. The provisions of this Agreement are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Senior Priority Secured Parties and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, respectively. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair the rights of the Original First Lien Borrower or any other Loan Party, or the obligations of the Original First Lien Borrower or any other Loan Party to pay the Original First Lien Obligations, the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Obligations and any Additional Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms.

Section 7.15 Headings. The headings of the articles and sections of this Agreement are inserted for purposes of convenience only and shall not be construed to affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof.

Section 7.16 Severability. If any of the provisions in this Agreement shall, for any reason, be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement and shall not invalidate the Lien Priority or the application of Proceeds and other priorities set forth in this Agreement.

Section 7.17 Attorneys’ Fees. The Parties agree that if any dispute, arbitration, litigation, or other proceeding is brought with respect to the enforcement of this Agreement or any provision hereof, the prevailing party in such dispute, arbitration, litigation, or other proceeding shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and all other costs and expenses incurred in the enforcement of this Agreement, irrespective of whether suit is brought.

Section 7.18 VENUE; JURY TRIAL WAIVER.

EACH PARTY HERETO REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER AND IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

(c) EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 7.05. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

Section 7.19 Intercreditor Agreement. This Agreement is the “Intercreditor Agreement” referred to in the Original First Lien Credit Agreement, the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Priority Credit Facility and each Additional Credit Facility. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to subordinate the right of any Junior Priority Secured Party to receive payment to the right of any Senior Priority Secured Party (whether before or after the occurrence of an Insolvency Proceeding), it being the intent of the Parties that this Agreement shall effectuate a subordination of Liens as between the Senior Priority Secured Parties, on the one hand, and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, on the other hand, but not a subordination of Indebtedness.

Section 7.20 No Warranties or Liability. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that none of the other Parties has made any representation or warranty with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectability or enforceability of any other Original First Lien Document, any [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Document or any other Additional Document. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Party will be entitled to manage and supervise its respective extensions of credit to any Loan Party in accordance with law and their usual practices, modified from time to time as they deem appropriate.

Section 7.21 Conflicts. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any Original First Lien Document, any [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Document or any Additional Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. The parties hereto acknowledge that the terms of this Agreement are not intended to negate any specific rights granted to, or obligations of, the Original First Lien Borrower or any other Loan Party in the Original First Lien Documents, the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Documents or any Additional Documents.

Section 7.22 Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Loan Parties. No Party has any responsibility for keeping any other Party informed of the financial condition of the Loan Parties or of other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Original First Lien Obligations, the [ ]ⁱ [First/Second]ⁱⁱ Lien Obligations or any Additional Obligations, as applicable. Each Party hereby agrees that no Party shall have any duty to advise any other Party of information known to it regarding such condition or any such circumstances. In the event any Party, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any information to any other Party to this Agreement, it shall be under no obligation (a) to provide any such information to such other Party or any other Party on any subsequent occasion, (b) to undertake any investigation not a part of its regular business routine, (c) to disclose any other information or (d) make any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided.

Section 7.23 Excluded Assets. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement (including Sections 2.01, 4.01, 6.01 and 6.09 hereof) shall be deemed to provide or require that any Agent or any Secured Party represented thereby receive any Proceeds of, or any Lien on, any Property of any Loan Party that constitutes “Excluded Assets” under (and as defined in) the applicable Credit Facility or any related Credit Document to which such Agent is a party.
