If it is subsequently determined before the date on which all Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans of the applicable Tranche have been repaid and all Revolving Commitments of the applicable Tranche have been terminated that the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio set forth in any Compliance Certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent is inaccurate for any reason and the result thereof is that the Revolving Lenders received interest or fees for any period based on an Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage that is less than that which would have been applicable had the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio been accurately determined, then, for all purposes of this Agreement, the “Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage” for any day occurring within the period covered by such Compliance Certificate shall retroactively be deemed to be the relevant percentage as based upon the accurately determined Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio for such period, and any shortfall in the interest or fees theretofore paid by the Borrowers for the relevant period as a result of the miscalculation of the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be (and shall be) due and payable by the Borrowers upon the date that is five Business Days after notice by the Administrative Agent to the Parent Borrower of such miscalculation. During or prior to such five Business Day period and thereafter, if the preceding sentence is complied with, the failure to previously pay such interest and fees at the correct Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage and the delivery of such inaccurate certificate shall not in and of themselves constitute a Default or Event of Default and no amounts shall be payable at the Default Rate in respect of any such interest or fees.

The Applicable Margins with respect to the Initial Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans will be adjusted on each Adjustment Date to the applicable rate per annum set forth under clause (a) of the definition of “Pricing Grid”, as applicable, under the heading “Applicable Margin for ABR Loans and Canadian Prime Rate Loans” or “Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans, XXXXX Loans and BA Equivalent Loans” on the Pricing Grid which corresponds to the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio determined from the financial statements and Compliance Certificate relating to the end of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding such Adjustment Date. The Applicable Margins with respect to the Initial Term Loans will be adjusted on each Adjustment Date to the applicable rate per annum set forth under clause (b) of the definition of “Pricing Grid” under the heading “Applicable Margin for ABR Loans” or “Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Loans” which corresponds to the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio determined from the financial statements and Compliance Certificate relating to the end of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding such Adjustment Date. If it is subsequently determined before, with respect to Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans, the date on which all Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans of the applicable Tranche have been repaid and all Revolving Commitments of the applicable Tranche have been terminated, and with respect to Initial Term Loans, the date on which all Initial Term Loans of the applicable Tranche have been repaid, that the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio set forth in any Compliance Certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent is inaccurate for any reason and the result thereof is that the Revolving Lenders or Term Loan Lenders, as applicable, received interest or fees for any period based on an Applicable Margin that is less than that which would have been applicable had the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio been accurately determined, then, for all purposes of this Agreement, the “Applicable Margin” for any day occurring within the period covered by such Compliance Certificate shall retroactively be deemed to be the relevant percentage as based upon the accurately determined Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio for such period, and any shortfall in the interest or fees theretofore paid by the Borrowers for the relevant period as a result of the miscalculation of the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be (and shall be) due and payable by the Borrowers upon the date that is five Business Days after notice by the Administrative Agent to the Parent Borrower of such miscalculation. During or prior to such five Business Day period and thereafter, if the preceding sentence is complied with, the failure to previously pay such interest and fees at the correct Applicable Margin and the delivery of such inaccurate certificate shall not in and of themselves constitute a Default or Event of Default and no amounts shall be payable at the Default Rate in respect of any such interest or fees.

(f)            Any references in this Agreement to “cash and/or Cash Equivalents”, “cash, Cash Equivalents, Investment Grade Securities and/or Temporary Cash Investments” or any similar combination of the foregoing shall be construed as not double counting cash or any other applicable amount which would otherwise be duplicated therein.

(g)           In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that no Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of the Parent Borrower, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, exists on the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into or irrevocable notice of redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Parent Borrower has exercised its option under the first sentence of this clause (g), and any Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, occurs following the date the definitive agreements for the applicable Limited Condition Transaction were entered into or irrevocable notice of redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder.

(h)           In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of:

(i)            determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires the calculation of the Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Leverage Ratio or the Consolidated Total Net Corporate Leverage Ratio; or

(ii)            testing baskets set forth in this Agreement;

in each case, at the option of the Parent Borrower (the Parent Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCA Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into or irrevocable notice of redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given, as applicable (the “LCA Test Date”), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds of such Incurrence) as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent four consecutive fiscal quarters ending prior to the LCA Test Date for which consolidated financial statements of the Parent Borrower are available, the Parent Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCA Test Date in compliance with such ratio or basket, such ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Parent Borrower has made an LCA Election and any of the ratios, baskets or amounts for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCA Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, basket or amount, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Parent Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction or any applicable currency exchange rate, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets, ratios or amounts will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Parent Borrower has made an LCA Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket availability with respect to the Incurrence of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments, Asset Dispositions, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Parent Borrower or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds of such Incurrence) have been consummated; provided that, with respect to the making of Restricted Payments on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio shall also be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds of such Incurrence) have not been consummated.

(i)            Any reference in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to a merger, consolidation, amalgamation, conveyance, disposal, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to a division of or by a limited liability company, corporation or partnership, or an allocation of assets to a series of or one or more limited liability companies, partnerships or corporations, or the unwinding of such a division or allocation, as if it were a merger, consolidation, amalgamation conveyance, disposal, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, as applicable, to, of or with a separate Person. Any division of a limited liability company, corporation or partnership shall be deemed to constitute the formation of a separate Person, and any such division shall constitute a separate Person hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (and each division of any limited liability company, corporation or partnership that is a subsidiary, joint venture or any other like term shall also constitute such a Person or entity).

(j)            If at any time any action or transaction meets the criteria of one or more than one of the categories of exceptions, thresholds or baskets set forth within each negative covenant set forth in Section 8 or any definition used therein, the Parent Borrower may divide, classify and/or designate such action or transaction (or any portion thereof), and later (on one or more occasions) may re-divide, re-classify and/or re-designate such action or transaction (or any portion thereof), as consummated in reliance on one or more of such exceptions, thresholds and baskets within such negative covenant (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, as consummated in reliance on one or more exception, threshold or basket within any other negative covenant) as the Parent Borrower may determine in its sole discretion from time to time, including by re-dividing, re-classifying and/or re-designating any action or transaction originally consummated in reliance on one or more fixed exceptions, thresholds or baskets (“fixed baskets”) as consummated in reliance on any available incurrence-based exception, threshold or basket (“incurrence-based baskets”) within the same negative covenant (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, within any other negative covenant) that is available at the time of such re-division, re-classification and/or re-designation (for the avoidance of doubt, which determination shall be made without duplication of such applicable action or transaction to be re-divided, re-classified and/or re-designated) and if any ratio or financial test set forth in any applicable incurrence-based basket would be satisfied at any time after consummation of such action or transaction, such re-division, re-classification and/or re-designation within such negative covenant (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, within any other negative covenant) shall be deemed to have automatically occurred if not elected by the Borrower (provided that all Indebtedness under this Agreement Incurred on or after the Closing Date shall be deemed to have been Incurred pursuant to Section 8.10(b)(i) and the Borrower shall not be permitted to reclassify all or any portion of Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 8.10(b)(i)).

(k)           If any fixed baskets are intended to be utilized together with any incurrence-based baskets in any action or transaction, (i) compliance with or satisfaction of any applicable financial ratios or tests for such action or transaction (or any portion thereof) to be consummated under any incurrence-based baskets shall first be calculated without giving effect to amounts being utilized pursuant to any fixed baskets or any substantially concurrent revolving credit loans incurrence, but giving full pro forma effect to all applicable and related transactions (including, subject to the foregoing with respect to fixed baskets, any incurrence and repayments of Indebtedness) and all other permitted pro forma adjustments, and (ii) thereafter, incurrence of the portion of such action or transaction to be consummated under any fixed baskets or revolving loan incurrence shall be calculated.

(l)            All references to “in the ordinary course of business” of Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof means (i) in the ordinary course of business of, or in furtherance of an objective that is in the ordinary course of business of such Borrower or such Subsidiary, as applicable, (ii) customary and usual in the industry or industries of the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries in the United States or any other jurisdiction in which any Borrower or any Subsidiary does business, as applicable, or (iii) generally consistent with the past or current practice of such Borrower or such Subsidiary, as applicable, or any similarly situated businesses of the United States or any other jurisdiction in which any Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary does business, as applicable.

(m)          All references to “knowledge” of any Loan Party or a Restricted Subsidiary means the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary.

(n)           For purposes of determining the Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio or the Consolidated Total Net Corporate Leverage Ratio, amounts denominated in a currency other than Dollars will be converted to Dollars for the purposes of (i) testing the financial covenant set forth in Section 8.9, at the exchange rate as of the last day of the fiscal quarter for which such measurement is being made, and (ii) calculating the Consolidated First Lien Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Secured Leverage Ratio, the Consolidated Total Corporate Leverage Ratio or the Consolidated Total Net Corporate Leverage Ratio, at the exchange rate as of the date of determination, and will, in the case of Indebtedness, be the weighted average exchange rates used for determining Consolidated EBITDA for the relevant period; provided that if the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has entered into any currency Swap Contracts in respect of any borrowings, the Dollar Amount of such borrowings shall be determined by first taking into account the effects of that currency Swap Contract.

1.3           Appointment of Borrower Representative. Each Borrower hereby designates the Parent Borrower as its borrower representative. The Parent Borrower will be acting as agent, attorney-in-fact and representative on each of the Borrowers’ behalf for the purposes of issuing notices of Borrowing and notices of conversion/continuation of any Loans pursuant to Section 2 and Section 4 or similar notices, giving instructions with respect to the disbursement of the proceeds of the Loans, selecting interest rate options, requesting Letters of Credit, giving and receiving all other notices and consents hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents and taking all other actions (including in respect of compliance with covenants) on behalf of any Borrower or the Borrowers under the Loan Documents. The Parent Borrower hereby accepts such appointment. Each Borrower agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by the Parent Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made directly by such Borrower.

1.4           Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a)           the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b)           the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i)            a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii)           a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii)          the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

1.5           Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification.      The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars or a Designated Foreign Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Regulators have signaled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of these interest rate benchmarks and, as a result, such interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable laws and regulations, may be permanently discontinued, and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change. The London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) publicly announced that: (i) immediately after December 31, 2021, publication of all seven euro LIBOR settings, the overnight, 1-week, 2-month and 12-month British Pound Sterling LIBOR settings, and the 1-week and 2-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; (ii) immediately after June 30, 2023, publication of the overnight and 12-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; (iii) immediately after December 31, 2021, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month British Pound Sterling LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to consultation by the FCA, be provided on a changed methodology (or “synthetic”) basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored; and (iv) immediately after June 30, 2023, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to the FCA’s consideration of the case, be provided on a synthetic basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored. There is no assurance that dates announced by the FCA will not change or that the administrator of LIBOR and/or regulators will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition, or characteristics of LIBOR or the currencies and/or tenors for which LIBOR is published. Each party to this agreement should consult its own advisors to stay informed of any such developments. Public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of LIBOR. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the monitoring, determination or verification of the unavailability or cessation of LIBOR (or other applicable Benchmark), the administration, submission of or any other matter related to XXXXX, LIBOR, the BA Rate, the Applicable Rate, Term SOFR, SOFR, the Eurocurrency Rate or any component definition thereof or rates referenced in the definition thereof or any alternative, comparable or successor rate or adjustment thereto (including any then-current Benchmark, or any Benchmark Replacement or any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, comparable or successor rate or adjustment (including any Benchmark Replacement or any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment) will be similar to, or produce the same value of economic equivalence of, XXXXX, the Eurocurrency Rate, the BA Rate, ~~the Base Rate~~ABR, Term SOFR, SOFR or any other Benchmark or any Benchmark convention, including any applicable recommendations made by the Relevant Governmental Body. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any XXXXX, LIBOR, the BA Rate, the Eurocurrency Rate, Term SOFR, SOFR or any alternative, comparable or successor rate or adjustment (including any Benchmark Replacement or any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment), in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrowers.

1.6           Cashless Rollover Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, to the extent that any Lender extends the maturity date of, or replaces, renews or refinances, any of its then-existing Loans with an Incremental Indebtedness, Refinancing Indebtedness, Indebtedness incurred under Section 8.10(a), or loans incurred under a new credit facility, in each case, to the extent such extension, replacement, renewal or refinancing is effected by means of a “cashless roll” by such Lender, such extension, replacement, renewal or refinancing shall be deemed to comply with any requirement hereunder or any other Loan Document that such payment be made “in Dollars”, “in immediately available funds”, “in Cash” or any other similar requirement.

1.7           Calculation of Baskets.   If (a) any of the baskets set forth in this Agreement are exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations to LTM Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently completed fiscal quarter after the last time such baskets were calculated for any purpose under this Agreement, such baskets will not be deemed to have been exceeded solely as a result of such fluctuations or (b) any baskets, is exceeded, any representation or warranty would be untrue or inaccurate, any undertaking would be breached, or any event that would constitute a Default or an Event of Default, in each case, solely as a result of fluctuations in applicable currency exchange rates, shall not be deemed to be exceeded, untrue, inaccurate, breached, exceeded or so constituted, as applicable, solely as a result of such fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

Upon receipt of such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender thereof. Each Lender having an Initial Term B Loan Commitment or an Initial Term C Loan Commitment, as applicable, will make the amount of its pro rata share of the Initial Term B Loan Commitments and Initial Term C Loan Commitments, as applicable, available, in each case for the account of the applicable Borrower at the office of the Administrative Agent specified in Section 11.2 prior to 12:00 P.M., New York City time (or, if the time period for the Parent Borrower’s delivery of notice was extended, such later time as agreed to by the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, but in no event less than one hour following notice) on the Closing Date in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall on such date credit the account of the applicable Borrower on the books of the Administrative Agent with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

New York City time, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, (ii) 3:00 P.M. New York City time, one Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Loans denominated in Australian Dollars and Sterling and (iii) 8:00 A.M. New York City time in the case of Loans denominated in Euro or other applicable Designated Foreign Currency (other than Australian Dollars and Sterling) (or 10:00 A.M., New York City time in the case of an initial borrowing hereunder (or, if the time period for the Parent Borrower’s delivery of notice was extended, such later time as agreed to by the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, but in no event less than one hour following notice)), or at such other office of the Administrative Agent or at such other time as to which the Administrative Agent shall notify such Lender and the Parent Borrower reasonably in advance of the Borrowing Date with respect thereto, on the Borrowing Date requested by the Parent Borrower in Dollars or the applicable Designated Foreign Currency and in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the applicable Borrower by the Administrative Agent crediting the account of the applicable Borrower on the books of the Administrative Agent with the aggregate of the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

2.7            Swing Line Commitments.

(a)            Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make swing line loans (individually, a “Swing Line Loan”; collectively, the “Swing Line Loans”) to the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis as between the Borrowers) from time to time during the Initial Revolving Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed an amount agreed from time to time between the Parent Borrower and the Swing Line Lender, but in any event not greater than $250,000,000; provided that at no time may the sum of the Dollar Equivalent of the then outstanding Swing Line Loans, Revolving Loans and Revolving L/C Obligations exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect. Amounts borrowed by the Borrowers under this Section 2.7 may be repaid and, through but excluding the Initial Revolving Maturity Date, reborrowed. All Swing Line Loans made to the Borrowers shall be made in Dollars as ABR Loans and shall not be entitled to be converted into ~~Eurocurrency~~Term SOFR Loans. The Parent Borrower shall give the Swing Line Lender irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender prior to 12:00 P.M., New York City time (or such later time as may be agreed by the Swing Line Lender in its reasonable discretion) on the requested Borrowing Date specifying the identity of each applicable Borrower (if not the Parent Borrower) and the amount of the requested Swing Line Loan, which shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or whole multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof.

(b)            The Swing Line Lender, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, may, and, at any time as there shall be a Swing Line Loan outstanding for more than seven Business Days, the Swing Line Lender shall, on behalf of the Parent Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs and authorizes the Swing Line Lender to act on its behalf), request (provided that such request shall be deemed to have been automatically made upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 9.1(f)) each Revolving Lender, including the Swing Line Lender, to make a Revolving Loan as an ABR Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all Swing Line Loans (a “Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing”) in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all of the Swing Line Loans (collectively, the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”) outstanding on the date such notice is given; provided that the provisions of this subsection shall not affect the joint and several obligations of the Borrowers to prepay Swing Line Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.4(b)(vi). Unless the Revolving Commitments shall have expired or terminated (in which event the procedures of paragraph (c) of this Section 2.7 shall apply), each Revolving Lender hereby agrees to make the proceeds of its Revolving Loan (including any ~~Eurocurrency~~Term SOFR Loan) available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the office of the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, in funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date such notice is given notwithstanding (i) that the amount of the Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for Revolving Loans otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 6.2 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) the date of such Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing and (v) the amount of the Revolving Commitment of such, or any other, Lender at such time. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans (including any ~~Eurocurrency~~Term SOFR Loan) shall be immediately applied to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loans.

103

(c)            If the Revolving Commitments shall expire or terminate at any time while Swing Line Loans are outstanding, each Revolving Lender shall, at the option of the Swing Line Lender, exercised reasonably, either (i) notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the Revolving Commitments, make a Revolving Loan as an ABR Loan (which Revolving Loan shall be deemed a “Revolving Loan” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) or (ii) purchase an undivided participating interest in such Swing Line Loans, in either case in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment Percentage determined on the date of, and immediately prior to, expiration or termination of the Revolving Commitments of the aggregate principal amount of such Swing Line Loans; provided that, in the event that any Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under any bankruptcy, reorganization, dissolution, insolvency, receivership, administration or liquidation or similar law with respect to a Borrower), then each Revolving Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Borrowers on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swing Line Lender such participations in such outstanding Swing Line Loans as shall be necessary to cause such Revolving Lenders to share in such Swing Line Loans ratably based upon their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages; provided, further, that (x) all interest payable on the Swing Line Loans shall be for the account of the Swing Line Lender until the date as of which the respective participation is required to be purchased and, to the extent attributable to the purchased participation, shall be payable to the participant from and after such date and (y) at the time any purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Revolving Lender shall be required to pay the Swing Line Lender interest on the principal amount of the participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Revolving Loan Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate otherwise applicable to Revolving Loans made as ABR Loans. Each Revolving Lender will make the proceeds of any Revolving Loan made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the office of the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, in funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date on which the Revolving Commitments expire or terminate and in Dollars. The proceeds of such Revolving Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the Swing Line Loans outstanding on the date of termination or expiration of the Revolving Commitments. In the event that the Revolving Lenders purchase undivided participating interests pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.7(c), each Revolving Lender shall immediately transfer to the Swing Line Lender, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Swing Line Lender will deliver to such Revolving Lender a Swing Line Loan Participation Certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.

104

(d)            Whenever, at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any Revolving Lender such Revolving Lender’s participating interest in a Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account thereof (whether directly from a Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Collateral applied thereto by the Swing Line Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Swing Line Lender will, if such payment is received prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on a Business Day, distribute to such Revolving Lender its pro rata share thereof prior to the end of such Business Day and otherwise, the Swing Line Lender will distribute such payment on the next succeeding Business Day (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Lender will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swing Line Lender to it.

(e)            Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make the Revolving Loans and to purchase participating interests with respect to Swing Line Loans in accordance with Sections 2.7(b) and 2.7(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Revolving Lender or any Borrower may have against the Swing Line Lender, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, (iii) any adverse change in condition (financial or otherwise) of any Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Lender, (v) any inability of the Borrowers to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement on the date upon which such Revolving Loan is to be made or participating interest is to be purchased or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

2.8            Record of Loans.

(a)            Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(b)            The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 11.6(b), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof, whether such Loan is a Term Loan or a Revolving Loan, the Tranche thereof and each Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrowers and each applicable Lender’s share thereof.

(c)            The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 2.8(b) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrowers therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrowers by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

105

2.9            Incremental Facility.

(a)            So long as no Event of Default exists or would arise therefrom (or, in the case of an Incremental Facility the proceeds of which will be used to finance a Limited Condition Transaction, only to the extent required by the applicable Incremental Lenders; provided that in any event, no Event of Default under Section 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) exists or would arise therefrom), the Parent Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, (i) to request new term loan commitments under one or more new term loan credit facilities (including new term loan “C” letter of credit facilities) to be included in this Agreement (the “Incremental Term Loan Commitments”), (ii) to request new commitments under one or more new revolving facilities to be included in this Agreement (the “Incremental Revolving Commitments”), (iii) to increase any Existing Term Loans by requesting new term loan commitments to be added to an Existing Tranche (including new term loan letter of credit commitments under an Existing Tranche of term “C” loans) of Term Loans (the “Supplemental Term Loan Commitments”), (iv) to increase the Existing Tranche of Revolving Commitments by requesting new Revolving Commitments be added to an Existing Tranche of Revolving Commitments (the “Supplemental Revolving Commitments”), and (v) to request new letter of credit facility commitments under one or more new letter of credit facilities to be included in this Agreement (the “Incremental Letter of Credit Commitments” and, together with the Incremental Term Loan Commitments, the Incremental Revolving Commitments, the Supplemental Term Loan Commitments and the Supplemental Revolving Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments” and an incremental facility established pursuant to any of the foregoing an “Incremental Facility”), provided that, the aggregate amount of Incremental Commitments permitted pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall not exceed, at the time the respective Incremental Commitment becomes effective (and after giving effect to the Incurrence of Indebtedness in connection therewith and the application of proceeds of any such Indebtedness, including to refinance other Indebtedness), the Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount at such time. Any loans made in respect of any such Incremental Commitment (other than Supplemental Term Loan Commitments and Supplemental Revolving Commitments) shall be made by creating a new Tranche.

(b)            Each request from the Parent Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Commitments. The Incremental Commitments (or any portion thereof) may be made by any existing Lender or by any other bank, savings and loan association or other similar savings institution, insurance company, investment fund or company or other financial institution (any such bank, savings and loan association or other savings institution, insurance company, investment fund or company or other financial institution, an “Additional Incremental Lender,” and the Additional Incremental Lenders together with any existing Lender providing Incremental Commitments, the “Incremental Lenders”) subject, in the case of any Incremental Revolving Commitments and Supplemental Revolving Commitments (if such Additional Incremental Lender is not already a Lender hereunder or any affiliate of a Lender hereunder), to the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

106

(c)            Supplemental Term Loan Commitments and Supplemental Revolving Commitments shall become commitments under this Agreement pursuant to a supplement specifying the Tranche of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments to be increased, executed by the Borrowers and each increasing Lender substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit R-1 (the “Increase Supplement”) or by each Additional Incremental Lender substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit R-2 (the “Lender Joinder Agreement”), as the case may be, which shall (x) in the case of Supplemental Revolving Commitments, (i) specify the amount of Supplemental Revolving Commitments (if any) to be added to such Lenders existing Revolving L/C Commitment Amount or (ii) if such Lender does not maintain a Revolving L/C Commitment Amount, specify the amount of Supplemental Revolving Commitments to be included in the definition of Revolving L/C Commitment Amount and allocable to such Lender and (y) be delivered to the Administrative Agent for recording in the Register. An Increase Supplement or Lender Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments (including to Section 2.4(b) and those contemplated by the foregoing clause(x)) to the Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.9. Upon effectiveness of the Lender Joinder Agreement, each Additional Incremental Lender shall be a Lender for all intents and purposes of this Agreement and the term loan made pursuant to such Supplemental Term Loan Commitment shall be a Term Loan or commitments made pursuant to such Supplemental Revolving Commitment shall be Revolving Commitments, as applicable. Upon the effectiveness of the Increase Supplement or the Lender Joinder Agreement, as the case may be, in each case with respect to any Supplemental Revolving Commitments, outstanding Revolving Loans and/or participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans and/or Revolving L/C Obligations of the applicable Existing Tranche, as the case may be, shall be reallocated (and the increasing Lender or joining Additional Incremental Lender, as applicable, shall make appropriate payments representing principal, with the Borrowers making any necessary payments of accrued interest) so that after giving effect thereto the increasing Lender or the joining Additional Incremental Lender, as the case may be, and the other Lenders of the applicable Existing Tranche share ratably in the total Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit in accordance with the applicable Commitments (and notwithstanding Section 4.12, no Borrower shall be liable for any amounts under Section 4.12 as a result of such reallocation).

107

(d)            Incremental Commitments (other than Supplemental Term Loan Commitments and Supplemental Revolving Commitments) shall become commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Commitment Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrowers and each applicable Incremental Lender. An Incremental Commitment Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.9, provided, however, that (i) (A) the Incremental Commitments will not be guaranteed by any Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower other than the Subsidiary Guarantors, and will be secured (except during any Collateral Suspension Period, during which the Incremental Commitments and any incremental loans drawn thereunder (the “Incremental Loans”) shall be unsecured) by the same collateral securing the Loans and (B) no Incremental Commitment Amendment may provide for (I) any Incremental Commitment or any Incremental Loans to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that do not also secure the Loans and (II) so long as any Initial Term Loans are outstanding, any mandatory prepayment provisions on a greater than pro rata basis relative to the Initial Term B Loans (or the Initial Term C Loans in the case of Incremental Term Loans in the form of term “C” loans); (ii) no Lender will be required to provide any such Incremental Commitment unless it so agrees; (iii) the maturity date of any Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be no earlier than the Initial Revolving Maturity Date; (iv) the maturity date of any Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall be no earlier than the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date (other than an earlier maturity date for (1) customary bridge financings, escrow or other similar arrangements, which, subject to customary conditions (as determined by the Parent Borrower in good faith), would either be automatically converted into or required to be exchanged for permanent financing which does not provide for an earlier maturity date than the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date (such bridge financings, escrow or other similar arrangements, “Extendable Bridge Loans/Interim Debt”))) and (2) Incremental Term Loans (other than Extendable Bridge Loans/Interim Debt), together with Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 8.10(a) and 8.10(b)(i), Specified Refinancing Facilities, Permitted Debt Exchange Notes and permitted refinancings of Incremental Term Loans and any of the foregoing, in each case Incurred in reliance on the Inside Maturity Basket, in an aggregate principal amount of up to the greater of $635,000,000 and 100% of LTM Consolidated EBITDA (this clause 2, the “Inside Maturity Basket”)); (v) the average weighted life to maturity of any Incremental Term Loans shall be no shorter than the average weighted life to maturity applicable to (i) with respect to Incremental Term Loans in the form of tranche “C” loans, the Initial Term C Loans and (ii) with respect to all other Incremental Term Loans, the Initial Term B Loans (in each case, without giving effect to any prepayments on the outstanding Initial Term C Loans or Initial Term B Loans, as applicable), provided that Extendable Bridge Loans/Interim Debt and Incremental Term Loans, Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 8.10(a) and 8.10(b)(i), Specified Refinancing Facilities, Permitted Debt Exchange Notes and permitted refinancings of Incremental Term Loans and any of the foregoing, in each case, Incurred in reliance on the Inside Maturity Basket may have a weighted average life to maturity that is shorter than the remaining weighted average life of the applicable Initial Term Loans, (vi) the interest rate margins applicable to the loans made pursuant to the Incremental Commitments shall be determined by the Parent Borrower and the applicable Incremental Lenders; provided that (i) in the event that the applicable interest rate margins for any term loans incurred by the Parent Borrower under any Incremental Term Loan Commitment that is pari passu in right of payment and security with the Initial Term Loans are higher than the applicable interest rate margin for the Initial Term Loans by more than 75 basis points, then the Applicable Margin for the Initial Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the applicable interest rate margin for the Initial Term Loans is equal to the applicable interest rate margins for such Incremental Term Loan Commitment minus 75 basis points; provided further that, in determining the applicable interest rate margins for the Initial Term Loans and the Incremental Term Loans, (A) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees payable generally to all participating Incremental Lenders in lieu of OID (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Parent Borrower to the Lenders under the Initial Term Loans or any Incremental Term Loan shall be included (with OID being equated to interest based on assumed four-year life to maturity); (B) customary arrangement, structuring, underwriting, ticking, commitment and other similar fees not payable to all lenders generally in connection therewith or commitment fees payable to any of the arrangers (or their respective affiliates) in connection with the Initial Term Loans or to one or more arrangers (or their respective affiliates) in connection with the Incremental Term Loans (and any fee payable to any Incremental Lender in lieu of any portion of any such fee payable to any such arranger or affiliate thereof) shall be excluded; (C) if the Incremental Term Loans include an interest rate floor greater than the interest rate floor applicable to the Initial Term Loans, such increased amount shall be equated to the applicable interest rate margin for purposes of determining whether an increase to the Applicable Margin for the Initial Term Loans shall be required, to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor for the Initial Term Loans would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case the interest rate floor (but not the Applicable Margin) applicable to the Initial Term Loans shall be increased by such amount and (D) if the Incremental Term Loans include an interest rate floor lower than the interest rate floor applicable to the Initial Term Loans or does not include an interest rate floor, the difference between the interest rate floor applicable to the Initial Term Loans and the Incremental Term Loans shall reduce the applicable interest rate margin of such Incremental Term Loans for purposes of determining whether an increase in the Applicable Margin for the Initial Term Loans shall be required (such adjustments to the Applicable Margin for the Initial Term Loans pursuant to this clause (vi), the “MFN Adjustment”); provided that the MFN Adjustment shall not be applicable to any Incremental Term Loan that (1) is incurred more than 18 months after the Closing Date, (2) is in an aggregate amount equal to or less than the greater of $635,000,000 and 100% of LTM Consolidated EBITDA, (3) matures at least one year after the maturity date applicable to the then outstanding Initial Term Loans, (4) is incurred in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or Permitted Investment, or (5) is incurred under the Incremental Fixed Dollar Basket (clause (1) through (5), the “MFN Exceptions”); (vii) such Incremental Commitment Amendment may (1) provide for the inclusion, as appropriate, of Additional Incremental Lenders in any required vote or action of the Required Lenders, Required Revolving Lenders or of the Lenders of each Tranche hereunder, (2) provide class protection for any additional credit facilities, (3) provide for the amendment of the definitions of “Additional Obligations,” “Disqualified Stock, and “Refinancing Indebtedness”, in each case only to extend the maturity date from the Initial Term B Loan Maturity Date or Initial Term C Loan Maturity Date, as applicable, to the extended maturity date of such Incremental Term Loans and (4) (A) amend or otherwise modify Section 6.2 solely with respect to any Extension of Credit under any Facility of Incremental Commitments, (B) waive any representation made or deemed made in connection with any Extension of Credit under any Facility of Incremental Commitments and (C) provide that an amendment, supplement or modification of any of the provisions referred to in clause (A) or (B) above may be effected with the consent only of such Incremental Lenders (or any of them); and (vii) the other terms and documentation in respect thereof, to the extent not consistent with this Agreement as in effect prior to giving effect to the Incremental Commitment Amendment, shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to the Parent Borrower.

108

2.10          Extension Amendments.

(a)            The Parent Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the (i) Term Loans (including any Extended Term Loans and term letter of credit commitments related to any term “C” loan facility), each existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing Term Tranche” and the Term Loans of such Tranche, the “Existing Term Loans”) or (ii) Revolving Commitments of one or more Tranches (including any Extended Revolving Commitments) existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing Revolving Tranche” and together with the Existing Term Tranches, each an “Existing Tranche,” and the Revolving Commitments of such Existing Revolving Tranche, the “Existing Revolving Commitments,” and together with the Existing Term Loans, the “Existing Loans”), in each case, be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal or scheduled termination date(s) of any commitments, as applicable, with respect to all or a portion of any principal or committed amount of any Existing Tranche (any such Existing Tranche which has been so extended, an “Extended Term Tranche” or “Extended Revolving Tranche,” as applicable, and each an “Extended Tranche,” the Loans of such Tranche, the “Extended Loans” and, if the Extension Request relates to any Tranche of Revolving Commitments, the Loans of such Tranche, the “Extended Revolving Loans” and the commitments of such Tranche, the “Extended Revolving Commitments” and, if the Extension Request relates to any Tranche of Term Loans, the Loans of such Tranche, the “Extended Term Loans” and the commitments of such Tranche, the “Extended Term Commitments”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.10; provided that any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Parent Borrower. In order to establish any Extended Tranche, the Parent Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Tranche) (an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Tranche to be established, which terms shall be identical to those applicable to the Existing Tranche from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Tranche”) except (w) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Extended Tranches may be delayed to later dates than the final maturity dates of the Specified Existing Tranche, (x) (A) the interest margins with respect to the Extended Tranche may be higher or lower than the interest margins for the Specified Existing Tranche and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Tranche in addition to or in lieu of any change in interest margins contemplated by the preceding clause (A), (y) the commitment fee, if any, with respect to the Extended Tranche may be higher or lower than the commitment fee, if any, for the Specified Existing Tranche, in each case to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment and (z) subject to clause (c) below, amortization with respect to the Extended Term Tranche may be greater or lesser than amortization for the Specified Existing Tranche; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.10 or otherwise, assignments and participations of Extended Tranches shall be governed by the same or, at the Parent Borrower’s discretion, more restrictive assignment and participation provisions than the assignment and participation provisions applicable to Initial Term Loans and Initial Revolving Commitments, as applicable, set forth in Section 11.6. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Existing Loans or, if applicable, commitments of any Existing Tranche converted into an Extended Tranche pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Extended Tranche shall constitute a separate Tranche of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, from the Specified Existing Tranches and from any other Existing Tranches (together with any other Extended Tranches so established on such date).

(b)            The Parent Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) prior to the date on which Lenders under the applicable Existing Tranche or Existing Tranches are requested to respond. Any Lender (each, an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Specified Existing Tranche converted into an Extended Tranche shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Specified Existing Tranche that it has elected to convert into an Extended Tranche. In the event that the aggregate amount of the Specified Existing Tranche subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Tranches requested pursuant to the Extension Request, the Specified Existing Tranches subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to Extended Tranches on a pro rata basis based on the amount of Specified Existing Tranches included in each such Extension Election. The Parent Borrower may amend, revoke or replace an Extension Request pursuant to procedures reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent at any time prior to the date (the “Extension Request Deadline”) on which Lenders under the applicable Existing Term Tranche or Existing Revolving Tranche are requested to respond to the Extension Request. Any Lender may revoke an Extension Election at any time prior to 5:00 p.m. on the date that is two Business Days prior to the Extension Request Deadline, at which point the Extension Election becomes irrevocable (unless otherwise agreed by the Parent Borrower). The revocation of an Extension Election prior to the Extension Request Deadline shall not prejudice any Lender’s right to submit a new Extension Election prior to the Extension Request Deadline.

109

(c)            Extended Tranches shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement (which may include amendments to (i) provisions related to maturity, interest margins, fees or amortization referenced in Section 2.10(a) clauses (w) to (z) and (ii) the definitions of “Additional Obligations,” “Disqualified Stock” and “Refinancing Indebtedness” to amend the maturity date from the applicable Maturity Date then in effect with respect to the applicable Existing Loans to the extended maturity date of such Extended Tranche, and which in each case, except to the extent expressly contemplated by the penultimate sentence of this Section 2.10(c) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 11.1, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Tranches established thereby) executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, and the Extending Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and without limiting the generality or applicability of Section 11.1 to any Section 2.10 Additional Amendments, any Extension Amendment may provide for additional terms and/or additional amendments other than those referred to or contemplated above (any such additional amendment, a “Section 2.10 Additional Amendment”) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that such Section 2.10 Additional Amendments do not become effective prior to the time that such Section 2.10 Additional Amendments have been consented to (including pursuant to consents applicable to holders of any Extended Tranches provided for in any Extension Amendment) by such of the Lenders, the Borrowers and other parties (if any) as may be required in order for such Section 2.10 Additional Amendments to become effective in accordance with Section 11.1; provided, further, that no Extension Amendment may provide for (a) any Extended Tranche to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that does not also secure the Specified Existing Tranche and (b) so long as any Existing Term Tranches are outstanding, any mandatory prepayment provisions that do not also apply to (i) with respect to any Extended Tranche in the form of a term “C” loan facility, the Existing Term Tranches in the form of term “C” loan facilities on a pro rata basis and (ii) with respect to all other Extended Term Loans, the Existing Term Tranches (other than Existing Tranches in the form of term “C” loan facilities) on a pro rata basis, in each case, after the occurrence of an acceleration of the Loans. It is understood and agreed that each Lender has consented for all purposes requiring its consent, and shall at the effective time thereof be deemed to consent to each amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents authorized by this Section 2.10 and the arrangements described above in connection therewith except that the foregoing shall not constitute a consent on behalf of any Lender to the terms of any Section 2.10 Additional Amendment. In connection with any Extension Amendment, at the request of the Administrative Agent or the Extending Lenders, the Parent Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as to the enforceability of such Extension Amendment, this Agreement as amended thereby, and such of the other Loan Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby.

(d)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (A) on any date on which any Existing Tranche is converted to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with clause (a) above (an “Extension Date”), in the case of the Specified Existing Tranche of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such Specified Existing Tranche shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Tranche so converted by such Lender on such date, and such Extended Tranches shall be established as a separate Tranche from the Specified Existing Tranche and from any other Existing Tranches (together with any other Extended Tranches so established on such date), provided that any Extended Tranche or Extended Loans may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as part of any Tranche of Term Loans established on or prior to the date of such Extension Amendment and (B) if, on any Extension Date, any Revolving Loans of any Extending Lender are outstanding under the applicable Specified Existing Tranches, such Loans (and any related participations) shall be deemed to be allocated as Extended Loans (and related participations) and Existing Loans (and related participations) in the same proportion as such Extending Lender’s applicable Specified Existing Tranches to the applicable Extended Tranches so converted by such Lender on such date.

(e)            If, in connection with any proposed Extension Amendment, any Lender declines to consent to the applicable extension on the terms and by the deadline set forth in the applicable Extension Request (each such Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”) then the Parent Borrower may, on notice to the Administrative Agent and the Non-Extending Lender, (A) replace such Non-Extending Lender in whole or in part by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 11.6 (with the assignment fee and any other costs and expenses to be paid by the Parent Borrower in such instance) all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to Existing Term Loans and/or Existing Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans thereunder, in each case as applicable, to one or more assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrowers to find a replacement Lender; provided, further, that the applicable assignee shall have agreed to provide Extended Loans and/or a commitment on the terms set forth in such Extension Amendment; and provided, further, that all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender (or, at the Parent Borrower’s option, the Borrowers) to such Non-Extending Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance or (B) prepay the Existing Loans and, at the Parent Borrower’s option, if applicable, terminate the commitments of such Non-Extending Lender, in whole or in part, subject to Section 4.12, without premium or penalty. In connection with any such replacement under this Section 2.10, if the Non-Extending Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (a) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Existing Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender (or, at the Parent Borrower’s option, the Borrowers) to such Non-Extending Lender, then such Non-Extending Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Parent Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Extending Lender.

111

(f)            Following any Extension Date, with the written consent of the Parent Borrower, any Non-Extending Lender may elect to have all or a portion of its Existing Loans or commitments, as applicable, deemed to be an Extended Loan or commitment, as applicable, under the applicable Extended Tranche on any date (each date a “Designation Date”) prior to the maturity date of such Extended Tranche; provided that such Lender shall have provided written notice to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent at least 10 Business Days prior to such Designation Date (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion). Following a Designation Date, the Existing Loans or commitments, as applicable, held by such Lender so elected to be extended will be deemed to be Extended Loans or commitments, as applicable, of the applicable Extended Tranche, and any Existing Loans held by such Lender not elected to be extended, if any, shall continue to be “Existing Loans” of the applicable Tranche.

(g)            With respect to all Extension Requests consummated by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.10, (i) such extensions shall not constitute optional or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 4.4 and (ii) no Extension Request is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment, provided that the Parent Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Request in the Parent Borrower’s sole discretion and may be waived by the Parent Borrower) of Existing Loans of any or all applicable Tranches be extended. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.10 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Loans on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Request) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including Sections 4.4 and 4.8) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit or restrict any such extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.10.

113

(b)            Each request from the Parent Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Specified Refinancing Facility. The Specified Refinancing Facilities (or any portion thereof) may be made by any existing Lender or by any other bank, savings and loan association or other similar savings institution, insurance company, investment fund or company or other financial institution (any such bank, savings and loan association or other savings institution, insurance company, investment fund or company or other financial institution, an “Additional Specified Refinancing Lender”, and the Additional Specified Refinancing Lenders together with any existing Lender providing Specified Refinancing Facilities, the “Specified Refinancing Lenders”); provided that if such Additional Specified Refinancing Lender is not already a Lender hereunder or an Affiliate of a Lender hereunder, the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required.

(c)            Specified Refinancing Facilities shall become facilities under this Agreement pursuant to a Specified Refinancing Amendment to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrowers and each applicable Specified Refinancing Lender. Any Specified Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.11, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.11.

(d)            Any loans made in respect of any such Specified Refinancing Facility shall be made by creating a new Tranche.

(i)            On the Closing Date, the Existing Letters of Credit identified on Schedule B hereof as a “Revolving Letter of Credit” will automatically, without any action on the part of any Person, be deemed to be Revolving Letters of Credit issued hereunder for the account of the Parent Borrower by the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender, whether or not such Existing Letters of Credit satisfy the requirements to be issued as a Revolving Letter of Credit hereunder. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions hereof, the Parent Borrower may request that the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender issue letters of credit (the letters of credit issued on and after the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 3.1(a)(i), the “Revolving Letters of Credit” or “Revolving L/Cs”) for the account of the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (so long as a Borrower is a co-applicant and jointly and severally liable thereunder) on any Business Day during the Initial Revolving Commitment Period but in no event later than the 30th day prior to the Initial Revolving Maturity Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by such Revolving Issuing Lender; provided that (x) no Revolving Letter of Credit shall be issued if, after giving effect to such issuance, (1) the aggregate Revolving L/C Obligations in respect of Revolving Letters of Credit issued by it would exceed its Revolving L/C Commitment Amount or (2) the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit of all the Revolving Lenders would exceed the Revolving Commitments of all the Revolving Lenders then in effect (it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall, to the extent reasonably requested by a Revolving Issuing Lender, reasonably assist such Revolving Issuing Lender in calculating the aggregate Revolving L/C Obligations in respect of Revolving Letters of Credit issued by such Revolving Issuing Lender and the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit of such Revolving Issuing Lender for purposes of determining compliance with clauses (1) and (2) of this clause (x)) and (y) no Revolving Letter of Credit shall be issued if, after giving effect to such issuance, the Revolving L/C Obligations in respect of Revolving Letters of Credit issued by such Revolving Issuing Lender would exceed such Issuing Lender’s Revolving L/C Commitment Amount after giving effect to the issuance of such Revolving Letter of Credit (it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall calculate the Dollar Equivalent of the then outstanding Revolving Loans in any Designated Foreign Currency and the then outstanding Revolving L/C Obligations in respect of any Revolving Letters of Credit denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency on the date on which the Parent Borrower has given the Administrative Agent a L/C Request with respect to any Revolving Letter of Credit for purposes of determining compliance with this Section 3.1).

(ii)            On the Closing Date, the Existing Letters of Credit identified on Schedule B hereof as a “Term Letter of Credit” will automatically, without any action on the part of any Person, be deemed to be Term Letters of Credit issued hereunder for the account of the Parent Borrower by the applicable Term Issuing Lender, whether or not such Existing Letters of Credit satisfy the requirements to be issued as a Term Letter of Credit hereunder. Subject to and upon the terms and conditions hereof, the Parent Borrower may request that the applicable Term Issuing Lender issue letters of credit (the letters of credit issued on and after the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 3.1(a)(ii), the “Term Letters of Credit” or “Term L/Cs”) for the account of the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (so long as a Borrower is a co-applicant and jointly and severally liable thereunder) on any Business Day during the Initial Term L/C Commitment Period, but in no event later than the 30th day prior to the Initial Term C Loan Maturity Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by such Term Issuing Lender; provided that (A) no Term Letter of Credit shall be issued, the Stated Amount of which, when added to the Term L/C Obligations in respect of all Term Letters of Credit at such time, would exceed the lesser of (x) the Term Letter of Credit Commitment then in effect and (y) the Term C Loan Collateral Account Balance for all Term C Loan Collateral Accounts and (B) subject to the provisions of Section 3.11, no Term Letter of Credit shall be issued (or deemed issued) by any Term Issuing Lender the Stated Amount of which, when added to the Term Letter of Credit Outstandings with respect to such Term Issuing Lender, would exceed (x) the individual Term Letter of Credit Commitment of such Term Issuing Lender then in effect, or (y) the Term C Loan Collateral Account Balance of such Term Issuing Lender; provided, however, that the Stated Amount of any Term Letter of Credit with respect to which another Term Letter of Credit is to be (or has been) issued to replace such Term Letter of Credit shall be excluded in calculating the Term L/C Obligations and the Term Letter of Credit Outstandings in connection with any determination of compliance with clause (A)(x) or (B)(x) above, so long as (and only so long as) the Term L/C Cash Coverage Requirement shall, at all times prior to the termination and cancellation of the Term Letter of Credit that is being (or has been) replaced (as notified to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower by the Term Issuing Lender thereof), be satisfied (including with respect to the Term Letter of Credit that is being (or has been) replaced and the related replacement Term Letter of Credit).

117

(b)            Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars or any Designated Foreign Currency requested by the Parent Borrower and shall be either (A) a standby letter of credit issued to support obligations of the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, contingent or otherwise (a “Standby Letter of Credit”) or (B) a commercial letter of credit in respect of the purchase of goods or services by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (a “Commercial L/C”) and (ii) unless cash collateralized or otherwise backstopped to the satisfaction of the applicable Issuing Lender (including, for the avoidance of doubt in the case of Term Letters of Credit, by amounts in the Term C Loan Collateral Account), expire no later than the earlier of (A) in the case of Standby Letters of Credit (subject to, if requested by the Parent Borrower and agreed to by the applicable Issuing Lender, automatic renewals for successive periods not exceeding one year ending prior to the 15th day prior to (x) in the case of Revolving Letters of Credit, the Initial Revolving Maturity Date and (y) in the case of Term Letters of Credit, the Initial Term C Loan Maturity Date, as applicable), one year after its date of issuance and the 5th day prior to (x) in the case of Revolving Letters of Credit, the Initial Revolving Maturity Date and (y) in the case of Term Letters of Credit, the Initial Term C Loan Maturity Date, or (B) in the case of Commercial L/Cs, one year after its date of issuance and the 30th day prior to (x) in the case of Revolving Letters of Credit, the Initial Revolving Maturity Date and (y) in the case of Term Letters of Credit, the Initial Term C Loan Maturity Date.

(c)            Unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Parent Borrower, each Letter of Credit shall be governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, and to the extent not prohibited by such laws, the ISP shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit, and the Uniform Customs shall apply to each Commercial L/C. The ISP shall not in any event apply to this Agreement. All Letters of Credit shall be issued on a sight basis only.

(d)            No Issuing Lender shall at any time issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause such Issuing Lender or, in the case of any Revolving Letter of Credit, any Revolving L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law or internal policy of such Issuing Lender.

118

3.2            Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit.

(a)            The Parent Borrower may from time to time request, during (x) in the case of Revolving Letters of Credit, the Initial Revolving Commitment Period, but in no event later than the 30th day prior to the Initial Revolving Maturity Date and (y) in the case of Term Letters of Credit, the Initial Term L/C Commitment Period, but in no event later than the 30^th day prior to the Initial Term C Loan Maturity Date, that an Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent, at their respective addresses for notices specified herein, an L/C Request therefor in the form of Exhibit B hereto (completed to the reasonable satisfaction of such Issuing Lender), and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may reasonably request (which L/C Request must have been received by such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 P.M., New York City time, at least three Business Days (or five Business days for Letter of Credit transactions in a Designated Foreign Currency) prior to the requested date of issuance (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Issuing Lender in its reasonable discretion)). Each L/C Request shall specify the applicable Borrower and that the requested Letter of Credit is to be denominated in Dollars or any Designated Foreign Currency. Upon receipt of any L/C Request, such Issuing Lender will process such L/C Request and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall such Issuing Lender be required, unless otherwise agreed to by such Issuing Lender, to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the L/C Request therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by such Issuing Lender and the Parent Borrower. The applicable Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Parent Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof. No Issuing Lender shall amend, cancel or waive presentation of any Letter of Credit, or replace any lost, mutilated or destroyed Letter of Credit, without the prior written consent of the Parent Borrower. Promptly after the issuance or amendment of any Standby Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in writing, of such issuance or amendment and such notice shall be accompanied by a copy of such issuance or amendment. Upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders, in writing, of such issuance or amendment, and if so requested by a Lender, the Administrative Agent shall provide to such Lender copies of such issuance or amendment. With regards to Commercial L/Cs, each Issuing Lender shall on the first Business Day of each week provide the Administrative Agent, by facsimile, with a report detailing the aggregate daily outstanding Commercial L/Cs during the previous week.

(b)            The making of each request for a Letter of Credit by the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Parent Borrower that such Letter of Credit may be issued in accordance with, and will not violate the applicable requirements of, Section 3.1. Unless the respective Issuing Lender has received notice from the Required Lenders before it issues a Letter of Credit that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6.2 are not then satisfied, or that the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate Section 3.1, then such Issuing Lender may issue the requested Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s usual and customary practices.

119

(b)            Each Borrower shall pay to the relevant Term Issuing Lender with respect to each Term Letter of Credit a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum calculated on the basis of a 360-day year (but in no event less than $500 per annum for each Term Letter of Credit issued on its behalf) of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Term Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on each Term L/C Fee Payment Date with respect to such Term Letter of Credit and on the date of the termination of the Term Letter of Credit Commitments. Such fees shall be nonrefundable. Such fees shall be payable in Dollars, notwithstanding that a Term Letter of Credit may be denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency. In respect of a Term Letter of Credit denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency, such fees shall be converted into Dollars at the Spot Rate of Exchange.

(c)            In addition to the foregoing fees, each Borrower agrees to pay amounts necessary to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by such Issuing Lender in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit issued by an Issuing Lender.

(a)            On the Closing Date, without any further action on the part of the Revolving Issuing Lenders or the Lenders, the Revolving Issuing Lenders hereby grant to each Revolving L/C Participant, and each such Revolving L/C Participant shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have acquired and received from each Revolving Issuing Lender that has issued or may issue or is deemed to have issued any Revolving Letter of Credit, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation (each, a “Revolving L/C Participation”), in each Revolving Letter of Credit that may be issued pursuant to Section 3.1 (including each Existing Letter of Credit that is deemed issued hereunder as a Revolving Letter of Credit) equal to such Revolving L/C Participant’s Revolving Commitment Percentage (determined on the date of issuance or deemed issuance of the relevant Revolving Letter of Credit) of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under each such Revolving Letter of Credit and the Revolving L/C Participation interests in respect thereof. Each Revolving L/C Participant hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees that if a Revolving Issuing Lender makes a disbursement in respect of any Revolving Letter of Credit issued by such Revolving Issuing Lender which is not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date due pursuant to Section 3.5, or is required to refund any reimbursement payment in respect of any Revolving Letter of Credit issued or deemed issued by such Revolving Issuing Lender to the applicable Borrower for any reason, such Revolving L/C Participant shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Issuing Lender upon demand (which demand, in the case of any demand made in respect of any draft under a Revolving Letter of Credit denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency, shall not be made prior to the date that the amount of such draft shall be converted into Dollars in accordance with Section 3.5) at the Administrative Agent’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such Revolving L/C Participant’s Revolving Commitment Percentage (with the Administrative Agent having the responsibility to determine and keep record of the Revolving Commitment Percentage of the Revolving L/C Participants for this purpose and all other purposes hereunder) of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, which is not so reimbursed.

120

(b)            If any amount required to be paid by any Revolving L/C Participant to the Administrative Agent for the account of a Revolving Issuing Lender on demand by such Revolving Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Revolving Issuing Lender under any Revolving Letter of Credit is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Revolving Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such demand is made, such Revolving L/C Participant shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Revolving Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of such amount, times the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Revolving Issuing Lender, times a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any Revolving L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Revolving Issuing Lender by such Revolving L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Revolving Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon (with interest based on the Dollar Equivalent of any amounts denominated in Designated Foreign Currencies) calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to Revolving Loans maintained as ABR Loans hereunder. A certificate of a Revolving Issuing Lender submitted to any Revolving L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this subsection (which shall include calculations of any such amounts in reasonable detail) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(c)            Whenever, at any time after a Revolving Issuing Lender has made payment under any Revolving Letter of Credit and has received through the Administrative Agent from any Revolving L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), such Revolving Issuing Lender receives through the Administrative Agent any payment related to such Revolving Letter of Credit (whether directly from a Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent or by such Revolving Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Administrative Agent will, if such payment is received prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on a Business Day, distribute to such Revolving L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof prior to the end of such Business Day and otherwise the Administrative Agent will distribute such payment on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by a Revolving Issuing Lender through the Administrative Agent shall be required to be returned by such Revolving Issuing Lender, such Revolving L/C Participant shall return to such Revolving Issuing Lender through the Administrative Agent the portion thereof previously distributed by the Administrative Agent to it.

121

3.5            Reimbursement by the Borrowers.

(a)            Each Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower of any presentation of a draft under any Letter of Credit. With respect to Letters of Credit, each Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender, upon receipt by the Parent Borrower of notice from such Issuing Lender of the date and amount of a draft presented under any Letter of Credit issued on its behalf and paid by such Issuing Lender, for the amount of such draft so paid and any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses reasonably incurred by such Issuing Lender in connection with such payment (each such amount so paid until reimbursed, an “Unpaid Drawing”). Each such payment, if any, made by the applicable Borrower with respect to any Letters of Credit shall be made to the applicable Issuing Lender, at its address for notices specified herein in the currency in which such Letter of Credit is denominated (except that, in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency, in the event that such payment is not made to such Issuing Lender within three Business Days of the date of receipt by the Parent Borrower of such notice, upon notice by such Issuing Lender to the Parent Borrower, such payment shall be made in Dollars, in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such payment converted on the date of such notice into Dollars at the Spot Rate of Exchange) and in immediately available funds, on the date on which the Parent Borrower receives such notice, if received prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on a Business Day and otherwise on the next succeeding Business Day. Any conversion by an Issuing Lender of any payment to be made in respect of any Letter of Credit denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency into Dollars in accordance with this Section 3.5 shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error; provided that upon the request of the Parent Borrower or any Lender, such Issuing Lender shall provide to the Parent Borrower or Lender a certificate including reasonably detailed information as to the calculation of such conversion.

(b)            In the case of any Unpaid Drawing under any Term Letter of Credit, unless the Parent Borrower shall have notified the Administrative Agent and the relevant Term Issuing Lender prior to 10:00 A.M. on the date on which the Parent Borrower receives notice of an Unpaid Drawing with respect to a Term Letter of Credit if such notice is received prior to such time, and otherwise prior to 10:00 A.M. on the next succeeding Business Day, that the Parent Borrower intends to reimburse the relevant Term Issuing Lender for the amount of such Unpaid Drawing with its own funds, the Collateral Agent shall instruct the applicable Depositary Bank to cause the amounts on deposit in the applicable Term C Loan Collateral Account to be disbursed to the applicable Term Issuing Lender for application to repay in full the amount of such Unpaid Drawing.

122

3.6            Obligations Absolute.

(a)            Each Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Parent Borrower may have or have had against an Issuing Lender, any Revolving L/C Participant or any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, provided that this paragraph shall not relieve any Issuing Lender or Revolving L/C Participant of any liability resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender or Revolving L/C Participant, or otherwise affect any defense or other right that the Parent Borrower may have as a result of any such gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(b)            Each Borrower and each Lender also agree with each Issuing Lender that such Issuing Lender and the Revolving L/C Participants shall not be responsible for, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the applicable Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the applicable Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee, provided that this paragraph shall not relieve any Issuing Lender or Revolving L/C Participant of any liability resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender or Revolving L/C Participant, or otherwise affect any defense or other right that the Borrowers may have as a result of any such gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(c)            Neither any Issuing Lender nor any Revolving L/C Participant shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions caused by such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(d)            Each Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct and in accordance with the standards of care specified in the UCC, shall be binding on such Borrower and shall not result in any liability of such Issuing Lender or Revolving L/C Participant to such Borrower.

3.7            L/C Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of an Issuing Lender to the applicable Borrower in respect of any Letter of Credit in connection with any draft presented for payment under such Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are in conformity with such Letter of Credit, provided that this paragraph shall not relieve any Issuing Lender of any liability resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender, or otherwise affect any defense or other right that the Borrowers may have as a result of any such gross negligence or willful misconduct.

3.8            Credit Agreement Controls. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any L/C Request or other application or agreement submitted by any Borrower to, or entered into by any Borrower with, any Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

123

3.9            Additional Issuing Lenders. The Parent Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as a “Revolving Issuing Lender” or “Term Issuing Lender” under the terms of this Agreement. Any Lender designated as an issuing lender pursuant to this Section 3.9 shall be deemed to be a “Revolving Issuing Lender” or a “Term Issuing Lender,” as applicable (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Revolving Letters of Credit or Term Letters of Credit, as applicable, issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other applicable Issuing Lenders and such Lender.

3.10            Indemnity. The Revolving L/C Participants agree to indemnify each Revolving Issuing Lender (or any Affiliate thereof) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of the Parent Borrower to do so as and to the extent provided herein), ratably according to their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 3.10, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Revolving Issuing Lenders (or any Affiliate thereof) in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by any Revolving Issuing Lender (or any Affiliate thereof) under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Revolving L/C Participant shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Revolving Issuing Lender (or any Affiliate thereof). The obligations to indemnify each Revolving Issuing Lender (or any Affiliate thereof) shall be ratable among the applicable Revolving L/C Participants in accordance with their Revolving Commitment Percentages. The agreements in this Section 3.10 shall survive the termination of the Revolving Commitments.

3.11            Term C Loan Collateral Account

(a)            On the Closing Date, the Parent Borrower established a Term C Loan Collateral Account for the benefit of each Term Issuing Lender on the Closing Date for the purpose of cash collateralizing the Borrowers’ obligations (including Term L/C Obligations) to such Term Issuing Lender in respect of the Term Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Term Issuing Lender. On the Closing Date, the proceeds of the Initial Term C Loans, together with other funds (if any) provided by the Parent Borrower, were deposited into the applicable Term C Loan Collateral Accounts such that the Term C Loan Collateral Account Balance of the Term C Loan Collateral Account established for the benefit of each Term Issuing Lender equaled at least the Term Letter of Credit Outstandings of such Term Issuing Lender. After the Closing Date, the Borrowers may establish additional Term C Loan Collateral Accounts for the benefit of any existing or additional Term Issuing Lender for the purpose of cash collateralizing the Borrowers’ obligations to the Term Issuing Lenders in respect of the Term Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by the Term Issuing Lenders, and may transfer all or any portion of the funds in any Term C Loan Collateral Account to any other Term C Loan Collateral Account, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in this Section 3.11 (and each Term Issuing Lender and the Collateral Agent agrees to instruct the applicable Depositary Bank to transfer such funds at the discretion of the Parent Borrower within one Business Day after the Parent Borrower has provided notice to make such transfer); provided that each Term Issuing Lender may require that the Depositary Bank for the Term Loan C Collateral Account corresponding to its Term L/C Obligations is such Term Issuing Lender or an Affiliate thereof. The Borrowers agree that at all times, and shall immediately cause additional funds to be deposited and held in the Term C Loan Collateral Accounts from time to time in order that (A) the Term C Loan Collateral Account Balance for all Term C Loan Collateral Accounts shall at least equal the Term L/C Obligations with respect to all then outstanding Term Letters of Credit and (B) the Term C Loan Collateral Account Balance of each Term C Loan Collateral Account established for the benefit of a Term Issuing Lender shall equal at least the Term Letters of Credit Outstanding of such Term Issuing Lender (the “Term L/C Cash Coverage Requirement”); provided, that in the case of clause (B), such requirement shall be deemed to have been met at such time if the Parent Borrower shall have instructed that funds held in one Term C Loan Collateral Account be transferred to the Term C Loan Collateral Account established for the benefit of another Term Issuing Lender so long as after giving effect to such transfer, the Term L/C Cash Coverage Requirement shall have been met.

124

(b)            The Parent Borrower hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of all Term Issuing Lenders, a security interest in the Term C Loan Collateral Accounts and all cash and balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing, as security for the Term L/C Obligations (and, in addition, grants a security interest therein, for the benefit of the Secured Parties as collateral security for the other Obligations hereunder); provided that amounts on deposit in the Term C Loan Collateral Accounts shall be applied as provided in Section 10.13.

(c)            Except as expressly provided herein or in any other Loan Document, no Person shall have the right to make any withdrawal from any Term C Loan Collateral Account or to exercise any right or power with respect thereto; provided that at any time the Parent Borrower shall fail to reimburse any Term Issuing Lender for any Unpaid Drawing in accordance with Section 3.5, the Parent Borrower hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to instruct the applicable depositary bank (each, a “Depositary Bank”) of the applicable Term C Loan Collateral Account to withdraw therefrom and pay to such Term Issuing Lender amounts equal to such Unpaid Drawings (in the case of amounts owing under a Term Letter of Credit denominated a Designated Foreign Currency, taking the Dollar Equivalent thereof). Amounts in any Term C Loan Collateral Account shall be invested by the applicable Depositary Bank in Term L/C Permitted Investments (and as reasonably agreed by the applicable Depositary Bank under the applicable depositary agreement) in the manner instructed by the Parent Borrower (and agreed to by such Depositary Bank) (and returns shall accrue for the benefit of the Parent Borrower); provided, however, that the applicable Depositary Bank shall determine such investments in Term L/C Permitted Investments during the existence of any Event of Default as long as made in Term L/C Permitted Investments, it being understood and agreed that neither the Parent Borrower nor the applicable Depositary Bank nor any other Person may direct the investment of funds in any Term C Loan Collateral Account in any assets other than Term L/C Permitted Investments. The Parent Borrower shall bear the risk of loss of principal with respect to any investment in any Term C Loan Collateral Account. So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and subject to the satisfaction of the Term L/C Cash Coverage Requirement for each Term Issuing Lender after giving effect to any such release, upon at least three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, request release of and payment to the Parent Borrower of (and the Collateral Agent hereby agrees to instruct the applicable Depositary Bank to release and pay to the Parent Borrower) any amounts on deposit in the Term C Loan Collateral Accounts (as reduced by the aggregate amounts, if any, withdrawn by the Term Issuing Lenders and not subsequently deposited by the Parent Borrower) in excess of the Term Letter of Credit Commitment at such time (provided that the Collateral Agent shall have received prior confirmation of the amount of such excess from the Administrative Agent). In addition, the Collateral Agent hereby agrees to instruct the Depositary Bank to release and pay to the Parent Borrower amounts (if any) remaining on deposit in the Term C Loan Collateral Accounts after the termination or cancellation of all Term Letters of Credit, the termination of the Term Letter of Credit Commitment and the repayment in full of all outstanding Initial Term C Loans and Term L/C Obligations.

Nothing in this Section 4.4(b)(i) shall limit the rights of the Agents and the Lenders set forth in Section 9.

130

(ii)            The Parent Borrower shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(i) (and in any event within five Business Days) upon becoming obligated to make such prepayment. Such notice shall state that the Parent Borrower is offering to make or will make such mandatory prepayment (i) in the case of mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(i)(A), on or before the date specified in Section 8.4(b) and (ii) in the case of mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(i)(B), on or before the date specified in Section 4.4(b)(i)(B) (each, a “Prepayment Date”). Subject to the following sentence, once given, such notice shall be irrevocable and all amounts subject to such notice shall be due and payable on the Prepayment Date (except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this Section 4.4(b)(ii)). Any such notice of prepayment pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(i) may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Parent Borrower (by written notice to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall immediately give notice to each Lender of the prepayment and the Prepayment Date.

Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall immediately notify the Parent Borrower of such election. Any amount so declined by any Lender may, at the option of the Parent Borrower, be applied to pay or prepay Indebtedness, or otherwise be retained by the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries or applied by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in any manner not inconsistent with this Agreement.

(iii)           Subject to the last sentence of Section 4.4(b)(ii), (i) prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(i)(A) shall be applied (x) first, to Term Loans (other than Initial Term C Loans and other Term Loans in the form of term “C” loans) on a pro rata basis among such Tranches of Term Loans (and ratably within each applicable Tranche of Term Loans) and (y) after application pursuant to clause (x), to Initial Term C Loans and other Term Loans in the form of term “C” loans on a pro rata basis among such Tranches of Term Loans (and ratably within each such Tranche of Term Loans), (ii) prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(i)(B)(x), to the applicable Tranche of Term Loans being refinanced with Specified Refinancing Term Loans (and ratably within such Tranche of Term Loans) and (iii) prepayments of Term Loans of a given tranche pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(i)(B)(y), to each Tranche of Term Loans on a ratable basis among such Tranches of Term Loans (and ratably within each such Tranche of Term Loans). Subject to the last sentence of Section 4.4(b)(ii) and Section 4.4(h), prepayments of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(i)(A) and Section 4.4(b)(i)(B)(y) shall be applied pro rata to the respective installments of principal thereof, provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, any such partial prepayment may, at the option of the Parent Borrower, be first allocated to such Term Loans pro rata based upon the aggregate amount of the installments thereof due in the next twelve months and then the remainder of such partial prepayment shall be allocated and applied as set forth above. Subject to the last sentence of Section 4.4(b)(ii) and Section 4.4(h), prepayments of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(i)(B)(x) shall be applied within each applicable Tranche of Term Loans pro rata to the respective installments of principal thereof in the manner directed by the Parent Borrower (or, if no such direction is given, in direct order of maturity). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 4.4, a Lender may, at its option, and if agreed by the Parent Borrower, in connection with any prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(a)(i) or (b)(i)(A) or (B), exchange such Lender’s portion of the Term Loan to be prepaid for Rollover Indebtedness, in lieu of such Lender’s pro rata portion of such prepayment (and any such Term Loans so exchanged shall be deemed repaid for all purposes under the Loan Documents).

(iv)          Amounts prepaid on account of Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(a)(i) or 4.4(b)(i) may not be reborrowed.

131

(v)            In the event that on any date the Administrative Agent calculates that (i) the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit with respect to all of the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender) exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments then in effect (other than any such excess occurring by reason of any change in exchange rates) or (ii) the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit with respect to all of the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender) exceeds 105% of the aggregate Revolving Commitments then in effect by reason of any change in exchange rates (it being understood and agreed that no Default or Event of Default shall arise hereunder or under any Loan Document merely as a result of the occurrence of any such excess described in clauses (i) or (ii) by reason of any change in exchange rates), in each case under clause (i) or (ii), the Administrative Agent will give notice to such effect to the Parent Borrower and the Lenders. Following receipt of any such notice, the Borrowers will, as soon as practicable but in any event within five Business Days of receipt of such notice, first, make such repayments or prepayments of Revolving Loans (together with interest accrued to the date of such repayment or prepayment), second, pay any Reimbursement Amounts with respect to Revolving Letter of Credit then outstanding and, third, cash collateralize any outstanding Revolving L/C Obligations on terms reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender as shall be necessary to cause the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Credit with respect to all of the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender) to no longer exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments then in effect; provided that in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, the Dollar Equivalent of any such excess shall be calculated as of the date of such notice and the amount of any such repayment, prepayment, payment or cash collateralization shall be calculated after giving effect to any other repayment, prepayment, payment or cash collateralization required to be made on such day pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(v)). If any such repayment or prepayment of a Eurocurrency Loan, Term SOFR Loan or BA Equivalent Loan pursuant to this Section 4.4(b)(v) occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrowers shall pay to the Lenders such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 4.12.

(vi)          The Borrowers shall prepay all Swing Line Loans then outstanding simultaneously with each borrowing of Revolving Loans. Upon the incurrence by the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans, the Borrowers shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Tranche of Revolving Loans being refinanced in an amount equal to 100% of all Net Proceeds received therefrom promptly (and in any event within five Business Days) following receipt thereof by the Parent Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary.

(c)           Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments. The Parent Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), to terminate the Initial Revolving Commitments, Incremental Revolving Commitments of any Tranche, the Extended Revolving Commitments of any Tranche or the Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments of any Tranche or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of Initial Revolving Commitments, Incremental Revolving Commitments of any Tranche, Extended Revolving Commitments of any Tranche or Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments of any Tranche; provided that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans then outstanding, when added to the sum of the then outstanding Revolving L/C Obligations, would exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect and provided, further, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Parent Borrower may condition such notice upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Parent Borrower (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and shall reduce permanently the applicable Revolving Commitments then in effect.

132

(d)           Cash Collateralization in Lieu of Prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.4, if at any time any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 4.4(a) or 4.4(b) would result, after giving effect to the procedures set forth in this Agreement, in the Borrowers incurring breakage costs under Section 4.12 as a result of Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans being prepaid other than on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, then, the Borrowers may, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in their sole discretion, (i) initially deposit a portion (up to 100%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of such Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans with the Administrative Agent (which deposit must be equal in amount to the amount of such Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans not immediately prepaid), to be held as security for the obligations of the Borrowers to make such prepayment pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent with such cash collateral to be directly applied upon the first occurrence thereafter of the last day of an Interest Period with respect to such Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans (or such earlier date or dates as shall be requested by the Parent Borrower) or (ii) make a prepayment of Loans in accordance with Section 4.4(a)(i) or 4.4(a)(ii) with an amount equal to a portion (up to 100.0%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of such Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans (which prepayment, together with any deposits pursuant to clause (i) above, must be equal in amount to the amount of such Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans not immediately prepaid); provided that, in the case of either clause (i) or (ii) above, such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans shall continue to bear interest in accordance with Section 4.1 until such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans or the related portion of such Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, as the case may be, have or has been prepaid.

(e)           Termination or Reduction of Term Letter of Credit Commitment. (i) Upon at least one Business Day’s prior revocable written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent and the Term Issuing Lenders (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders holding Initial Term C Loans), the Parent Borrower shall have the right, without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 4.4(g)), on any day, to permanently to terminate or reduce the Term Letter of Credit Commitment in whole or in part; provided that, immediately upon any such termination or reduction, (i) the Parent Borrower shall prepay the Initial Term C Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Term Letter of Credit Commitment so terminated or reduced in accordance with the requirements of Sections 4.4(a)(i) (and shall be permitted to withdraw an amount from the Term C Loan Collateral Accounts to make such prepayment) (ii) the Individual Term Letter of Credit Commitment of each Term Issuing Lender shall be reduced ratably in connection therewith (or on such other basis as may be agreed by the Parent Borrower and the Term Issuing Lenders), (iii) after giving effect to such reduction of the Term Letter of Credit Commitment, the Term Letter of Credit Outstandings with respect to each Term Issuing Lender with a Term Letter of Credit Commitment shall not exceed the Individual Term Letter of Credit Commitment of such Term Issuing Lender and (iv) after giving effect to such reduction and any such prepayment, the Term L/C Cash Coverage Requirement shall be satisfied.

133

(ii)            The Term Letter of Credit Commitment shall be reduced by the amount of any prepayment or repayment of principal of Initial Term C Loans pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(ii) or this Section 4.4 (with a corresponding reduction to the Individual Term Letter of Credit Commitment of each Term Issuing Lender (on a ratable basis or on such other basis as may be agreed by the Parent Borrower and the Term Issuing Lenders)) and the Parent Borrower shall be permitted to withdraw an amount up to the amount of such prepayment or repayment from the Term C Loan Collateral Accounts to complete such prepayment or repayment; provided that after giving effect to such withdrawal, the Term L/C Cash Coverage Requirement shall be satisfied.

(f)            Discounted Term Loan Prepayments. Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, the Borrowers may prepay the outstanding Term Loans on the following basis:

(i)             Right to Prepay. The Borrowers shall have the right to make a voluntary prepayment of Term Loans at a discount to par (such prepayment, the “Discounted Term Loan Prepayment”) pursuant to a Borrower Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment, a Borrower Solicitation of Discount Range Prepayment Offers, or a Borrower Solicitation of Discounted Prepayment Offers, in each case made in accordance with this Section 4.4(f); provided that at the time of such Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, after giving effect thereto, Liquidity is equal to or greater than $500,000,000. Each Lender participating in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, (1) the Borrowers 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 participate in such Discounted Term Loan Prepayment (“Excluded Information”), (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such Discounted Term Loan Prepayment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information and (3) none of Holdings, the Parent Borrower, its Subsidiaries, 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 Holdings, the Parent Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, and their respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information. Each Lender participating in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment further acknowledges that the Excluded Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders. Any Term Loans prepaid pursuant to this Section 4.4(f) shall be immediately and automatically cancelled.

134

(ii)            Borrower Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment.

(1)            The Borrowers may from time to time offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment by providing the Administrative Agent with one Business Day’s (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) notice in the form of a Specified Discount Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such offer shall be made available, at the sole discretion of the Parent Borrower, to each Term Loan Lender and/or to each Lender of one or more Term Loans on a Tranche by Tranche basis, (II) any such offer shall specify the aggregate Outstanding Amount offered to be prepaid (the “Specified Discount Prepayment Amount”), the Tranches of Term Loans subject to such offer and the specific percentage discount to par value (the “Specified Discount”) of the Outstanding Amount of such Loans to be prepaid, and (IV) each such offer shall remain outstanding through the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date.

(2)            Each relevant Lender receiving such offer shall notify the Administrative Agent (or its delegate) by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date whether or not it agrees to accept a prepayment of any of its relevant then outstanding Term Loans at the Specified Discount and, if so (such accepting Lender, a “Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender”), the amount of such Lender’s Outstanding Amount and Tranches of Term Loans to be prepaid at such offered discount. Each acceptance of a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment by a Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender shall be irrevocable. Any Lender whose Specified Discount Prepayment Response is not received by the Administrative Agent by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept such Borrower Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment.

(3)            If there is at least one Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender, the Borrowers will make prepayment of outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 4.4(f)(ii) to each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender in accordance with the respective Outstanding Amount and Tranches of Term Loans specified in such Lender’s Specified Discount Prepayment Response given pursuant to the foregoing clause (2); provided that, if the aggregate Outstanding Amount of Term Loans accepted for prepayment by all Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders exceeds the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount, such prepayment shall be made pro rata among the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders in accordance with the respective Outstanding Amounts accepted to be prepaid by each such Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender and the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Parent Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Specified Discount Proration”).

135

(iii)           Borrower Solicitation of Discount Range Prepayment Offers.

Each relevant Term Loan Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer shall be irrevocable and shall specify a discount to par within the Discount Range (the “Submitted Discount”) at which such Lender is willing to allow prepayment of any or all of its then outstanding Term Loans and the maximum aggregate Outstanding Amount and Tranches of such Term Loans such Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Submitted Discount (the “Submitted Amount”). Any Term Loan Lender whose Discount Range Prepayment Offer is not received by the Administrative Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount to their par value within the Discount Range.

136

(2)            The Administrative Agent shall review all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received by it by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date and will determine (in consultation with the Parent Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) the Applicable Discount and Term Loans to be prepaid at such Applicable Discount in accordance with this Section 4.4(f)(iii).The Borrowers agree to accept on the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received by Administrative Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, in the order from the Submitted Discount that is the largest discount to par to the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par, up to and including the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par within the Discount Range (such Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par being referred to as the “Applicable Discount”) which yields a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment in an aggregate Outstanding Amount equal to the lesser of (I) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount and (II) the sum of all Submitted Amounts. Each Lender that has submitted a Discount Range Prepayment Offer to accept prepayment at a discount to par that is larger than or equal to the Applicable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Submitted Amount (subject to any required proration pursuant to the following clause (3)) at the Applicable Discount (each such Lender, a “Participating Lender”).

(3)            If there is at least one Participating Lender, the Borrowers will prepay the respective outstanding Term Loans of each Participating Lender in the aggregate Outstanding Amount and of the Tranches specified in such Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer at the Applicable Discount; provided that if the Submitted Amount by all Participating Lenders offered at a discount to par greater than the Applicable Discount exceeds the Discount Range Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the Outstanding Amount of the relevant Term Loans for those Participating Lenders whose Submitted Discount is a discount to par greater than or equal to the Applicable Discount (the “Identified Participating Lenders”) shall be made pro rata among the Identified Participating Lenders in accordance with the Submitted Amount of each such Identified Participating Lender and the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Parent Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Discount Range Proration”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly, and in any case within three Business Days following the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, notify (w) the Parent Borrower of the respective Term Loan Lenders’ responses to such solicitation, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the Tranches to be prepaid, (x) each Term Loan Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate Outstanding Amount and Tranches of all Term Loans to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (y) each Participating Lender of the aggregate Outstanding Amount and Tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, and (z) if applicable, each Identified Participating Lender of the Discount Range Proration.

The payment amount specified in such notice to the Parent Borrower shall be due and payable by the Borrowers on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with Section 4.4(f)(vi) below (subject to Section 4.4(f)(x) below).

137

(iv)           Borrower Solicitation of Discounted Prepayment Offers.

(1)            The Borrowers may from time to time solicit Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers by providing the Administrative Agent with one Business Day’s (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) notice in the form of a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such solicitation shall be extended, at the sole discretion of the Parent Borrower, to each Term Loan Lender and/or to each Lender of one or more Term Loans on a Tranche by Tranche basis, (II) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans and the Tranches of Term Loans the Borrowers are willing to prepay at a discount (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount”) and (III) each such solicitation by the Borrowers shall remain outstanding through the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. The Administrative Agent will promptly provide each relevant Term Loan Lender with a copy of such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice and a form of the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding Term Loan Lender to the Administrative Agent (or its delegate) by no later than the time and date designated by the Administrative Agent and approved by the Parent Borrower (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date”). Each Term Loan Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer shall (x) be irrevocable, (y) remain outstanding until the Acceptance Date, and (z) specify both a discount to par (the “Offered Discount”) at which such Term Loan Lender is willing to allow prepayment of its then outstanding Term Loans and the maximum aggregate Outstanding Amount and Tranches of such Term Loans (the “Offered Amount”) such Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Offered Discount. Any Term Loan Lender whose Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer is not received by the Administrative Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount to their par value.

138

(2)            The Administrative Agent shall promptly provide the Parent Borrower with a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by it by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. The Parent Borrower shall review all such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers and select, at its sole discretion, the smallest of the Offered Discounts specified by the relevant responding Term Loan Lenders in the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers that the Borrowers are willing to accept (the “Acceptable Discount”), if any. If the Borrowers elect to accept any Offered Discount as the Acceptable Discount, then as soon as practicable after the determination of the Acceptable Discount, but in no event later than by the third Business Day after the date of receipt by the Parent Borrower from the Administrative Agent of a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (2) (the “Acceptance Date”), the Parent Borrower shall submit an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice to the Administrative Agent setting forth the Acceptable Discount. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to receive an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice from the Parent Borrower by the Acceptance Date, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have rejected all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers.

139

(3)            Based upon the Acceptable Discount and the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Administrative Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, within three Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice (the “Discounted Prepayment Determination Date”), the Administrative Agent will determine (in consultation with the Parent Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) the aggregate Outstanding Amount and the Tranches of Term Loans (the “Acceptable Prepayment Amount”) to be prepaid by the Borrowers at the Acceptable Discount in accordance with this Section 4.4(f)(iv). If the Borrowers elect to accept any Acceptable Discount, then the Borrowers agree to accept all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by the Administrative Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, in the order from largest Offered Discount to smallest Offered Discount, up to and including the Acceptable Discount. Each Lender that has submitted a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer to accept prepayment at an Offered Discount that is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Offered Amount (subject to any required proration pursuant to the following sentence) at the Acceptable Discount (each such Lender, a “Qualifying Lender”). The Borrowers will prepay outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 4.4(f)(iv)(3) to each Qualifying Lender in the aggregate Outstanding Amount and of the Tranches specified in such Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer at the Acceptable Discount; provided that if the aggregate Offered Amount by all Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount exceeds the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans for those Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount (the “Identified Qualifying Lenders”) shall be made pro rata among the Identified Qualifying Lenders in accordance with the Offered Amount of each such Identified Qualifying Lender and the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Parent Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Solicited Discount Proration”). On or prior to the Discounted Prepayment Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify (w) the Parent Borrower of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and Acceptable Prepayment Amount comprising the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the Tranches to be prepaid, (x) each Term Loan Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Acceptable Discount, and the Acceptable Prepayment Amount of all Term Loans and the Tranches to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (y) each Qualifying Lender of the aggregate Outstanding Amount and the Tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Acceptable Discount on such date, and (z) if applicable, each Identified Qualifying Lender of the Solicited Discount Proration. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Parent Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to such Parent Borrower shall be due and payable by the Borrowers on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with Section 4.4(f)(vi) below (subject to Section 4.4(f)(x) below).

(v)           Expenses. In connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the Borrowers and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent may require as a condition to any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the payment of customary fees and expenses from the Borrowers in connection therewith.

140

(vi)          Payment. If any Term Loan is prepaid in accordance with Sections 4.4(f)(ii) through (iv) above, the Borrowers shall prepay such Term Loans on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. The Borrowers shall make such prepayment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in the applicable currency and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 P.M. (New York time) on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and all such prepayments shall be applied to the remaining principal installments of the Term Loans on a pro rata basis. The Term Loans so prepaid shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so prepaid up to, but not including, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. Each prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 4.4(f) shall be paid to the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable. The aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Tranches of the Term Loans outstanding shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Tranches of Term Loans prepaid on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment. The Lenders hereby agree that, in connection with a prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 4.4(f) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) interest in respect of the Term Loans may be made on a non-pro rata basis among the Lenders holding such Loans to reflect the payment of accrued interest to certain Lenders as provided in this Section 4.4(f)(vi) and (ii) all subsequent prepayments and repayments of the Term Loans (except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement) shall be made on a pro rata basis among the respective Lenders based upon the then outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the respective Lenders after giving effect to any prepayment pursuant to this Section 4.4(f) as if made at par. It is also understood and agreed that prepayments pursuant to this Section 4.4(f) shall not be subject to Section 4.4(a), or, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 11.7(a) or the pro rata allocation requirements of Section 4.8(a).

(vii)         Other Procedures. To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Term Loan Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures consistent with the provisions in this Section 4.4(f), established by the Administrative Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as reasonably agreed by the Parent Borrower.

(viii)        Notice. Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 4.4(f), each notice or other communication required to be delivered or otherwise provided to the Administrative Agent (or its delegate) shall be deemed to have been given upon the Administrative Agent’s (or its delegate’s) actual receipt during normal business hours of such notice or communication; provided that any notice or communication actually received outside of normal business hours shall be deemed to have been given as of the opening of business on the next Business Day.

141

(ix)           Actions of Administrative Agent. Each of the Borrowers and the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties under this Section 4.4(f) by itself or through any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent and expressly consents to any such delegation of duties by the Administrative Agent to such Affiliate and the performance of such delegated duties by such Affiliate. The exculpatory provisions in this Agreement shall apply to each Affiliate of the Administrative Agent and its respective activities in connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment provided for in this Section 4.4(f) as well as to activities of the Administrative Agent in connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment provided for in this Section 4.4(f).

(x)            Revocation. The Parent Borrower shall have the right, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, to revoke in full (but not in part) its offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and rescind the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Notice, Discount Range Prepayment Notice or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice therefor at its discretion at any time on or prior to the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date (and if such offer is so revoked, any failure by the Borrowers to make any prepayment to a Lender pursuant to this Section 4.4(f) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under Section 9.1(a) or otherwise).

(xi)           No Obligation. This Section 4.4(f) shall not (i) require the Borrowers to undertake any prepayment pursuant to this Section 4.4(f) or (ii) limit or restrict the Borrowers from making voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement.

(g)           Repricing Transactions. If on or prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date the Parent Borrower (x) makes an optional prepayment of the Initial Term Loans pursuant to a Repricing Transaction, (y) makes a mandatory prepayment of the Initial Term Loans under Section 4.4(b)(i)(B) pursuant to a Repricing Transaction or (z) effects any amendment of this Agreement (including in connection with any refinancing transaction permitted under Section 11.6(h) to replace the Loans or Commitments under any Facility or Tranche) that results in a Repricing Transaction, the Parent Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each Lender, (I) in the case of clauses (x) and (y) above a prepayment premium of 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of Initial Term Loans being prepaid and (II) in the case of clause (z) above, a prepayment premium of 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of Initial Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment. If on or prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date any Lender is replaced pursuant to Section 11.1(g) in connection with any amendment of this Agreement (including in connection with any refinancing transaction permitted under Section 11.6(h) to replace the Loans or Commitments under any Facility or Tranche) that results in a Repricing Transaction, such Lender (and not any Person who replaces such Lender pursuant to Section 11.1(g)) shall receive its pro rata portion (as determined immediately prior to it being so replaced) of the prepayment premium described in the preceding sentence.

(h)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 4.4 may be amended (and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such amendments) to the extent necessary to reflect differing amounts payable, and priorities of payments, to Lenders participating in any new classes or tranches of Term Loans added pursuant to Sections 2.9, 2.10 and 2.11, as applicable, or pursuant to any other credit or letter of credit facility added pursuant to Section 2.9 or 11.1(e).

142

4.5           Commitment Fees; Administrative Agent’s Fees.

(a)           The Borrowers agree to pay quarterly in arrears to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Revolving Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) that is a Revolving L/C Participant, a letter of credit commission with respect to each Revolving Letter of Credit issued by such Revolving Issuing Lender on its behalf, computed for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Revolving Letter of Credit through to the expiration date of such Revolving Letter of Credit, computed at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect for Term SOFR Loans (or, in the case of Revolving Letters of Credit denominated in Designated Foreign Currencies, Eurocurrency Loans) that are Revolving Loans calculated on the basis of a 360 day year for the actual days elapsed, of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Revolving Letter of Credit, payable on each Revolving L/C Fee Payment Date with respect to such Revolving Letter of Credit and on the Initial Revolving Maturity Date or such earlier date as the Revolving Commitments shall terminate as provided herein. Such commission shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders to be shared ratably among them in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages. Such commission shall be nonrefundable and shall be payable in Dollars, notwithstanding that a Revolving Letter of Credit may be denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency. In respect of a Revolving Letter of Credit denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency, such commission shall be converted into Dollars at the Spot Rate of Exchange.

(b)           The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each applicable Revolving Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), a commitment fee for the period from and including the first day of the applicable Revolving Commitment Period to the applicable Maturity Date, computed at the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentage on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, and on the applicable Maturity Date, or such earlier date as the Revolving Commitments shall terminate as provided herein, commencing on September 30, 2021.

(c)           The Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Other Representatives any fees in the amounts and on the dates previously agreed to in writing pursuant to the Fee Letters by the Parent Borrower, the Other Representatives and the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement.

4.6           Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a)           Interest (other than interest based on the Prime Rate, the Canadian Prime Rate or the BA Rate or for XXXXX Loans) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed; and commitment fees and interest based on the Prime Rate, the Canadian Prime Rate or the BA Rate and for XXXXX Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year (or 366-day year, as the case may be) for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Parent Borrower and the affected Lenders of each determination of a Eurocurrency Rate and Term SOFR. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in Term SOFR, SOFR, the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Parent Borrower and the affected Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.

143

(b)           Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Parent Borrower or any Lender, deliver to the Parent Borrower or such Lender a statement showing in reasonable detail the calculations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 4.1, excluding any Eurocurrency Base Rate which is based upon the Reuters Screen and any ABR Loan which is based upon the Prime Rate.

4.7           Inability to Determine Interest Rate.

(a)           If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining ~~the~~Term SOFR with respect to any Term SOFR Loan (the “Affected Term SOFR”), XXXXX with respect to any XXXXX Loan (the “Affected XXXXX”), the Eurocurrency Rate with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan (the “Affected Eurocurrency Rate”) or the BA Rate with respect to any BA Equivalent Loan (the “Affected BA Rate”), in each case for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Parent Borrower and the Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (a) (x) any ~~Eurocurrency~~Term SOFR Loans ~~to be made in Dollars~~ the rate of interest applicable to which is based on the Affected ~~Eurocurrency Rate~~Term SOFR requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans~~, (~~b and (y) any Eurocurrency Loans to be made in Dollars the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Eurocurrency Rate shall be made as ABR Loans, (b) any XXXXX Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based on the Affected XXXXX requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be ineffective, (c) any BA Equivalent Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based on the Affected BA Rate requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Canadian Prime Rate Loans, (cd) any Eurocurrency Loans to be made in a Designated Foreign Currency the rate of interest applicable to which is based on the Affected Eurocurrency Rate requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall not be required to be made hereunder in such Designated Foreign Currency and, upon receipt of such notice, the Parent Borrower may at its option revoke the pending request for such Eurocurrency Loans or convert such request into a request for ABR Loans to be made in Dollars or Canadian Prime Rate Loans to be made in Canadian Dollars, (de) (x) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Term SOFR Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Term SOFR shall be converted to or continued as ABR Loans and (y) any Loans denominated in Dollars that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Eurocurrency Loans ~~in Dollars~~ the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Eurocurrency Rate shall be converted to or continued as ABR Loans, (ef) any Loans that were to have been continued as XXXXX Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected XXXXX shall be deemed to have been converted into Loans that bear interest at the Central Bank Rate; provided, that if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate cannot be determined, then such Loans shall be prepaid in full immediately, (g) Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as BA Rate Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected BA Rate shall be converted to or continued as Canadian Prime Rate Loans and (fh) any Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Euro that were to have been continued as Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Eurocurrency Rate shall (at the option of the Parent Borrower) remain outstanding, and shall bear interest at an alternate rate which reflects, as to each Lender, such Lender’s cost of funding such Eurocurrency Loans, as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, plus the Applicable Margin hereunder.

144

(b)           US Dollar Benchmark Replacement Setting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, with respect to any Loan or Borrowing denominated in US Dollars:

(i)             Replacing USD LIBOR~~. On~~ for Term Loans. With respect to any Term Loans, on the earlier of (i) the date that all Available Tenors of USD LIBOR have either permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by IBA or have been announced by the FCA pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative and (ii) the Early Opt-in Effective Date, if the then-current Benchmark with respect to such Term Loans is USD LIBOR, the Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If ~~the~~such Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a quarterly basis.

(ii)           Replacing Future Benchmarks. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders of each Class. At any time that the administrator of the then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Parent Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until the Parent Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, the Parent Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans denominated in Dollars. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of ABR based upon the Benchmark will not be used in any determination of ABR.

145

(iii)            Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation and administration of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(iv)            Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (ii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section.

(v)            Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or USD LIBOR), then the Administrative Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings and (ii) the Administrative Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings.

(c)            Designated Foreign Currency Benchmark Replacement Setting. If at any time there ceases to exist XXXXX, BA Rate or other interbank rate applicable to any Designated Foreign Currency in the relevant market for Sterling, Euros, Australian Dollars, Canadian Dollars or other applicable Designated Foreign Currency, as applicable, or any of the foregoing cease to be administered by the relevant authority that oversees such interbank rates as of the Closing Date for interest periods greater than one Business Day, or the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that the circumstances set forth in clause (a) above have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or the circumstances in clause (a) above have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the relevant interbank rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which such interbank offered rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest in lieu of such interbank offered rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for fixed periods for syndicated loans applicable jurisdiction of the applicable Designated Foreign Currency at such time (it being agreed that such rate shall not result in a higher cost of funding than ~~Base Rate~~ABR Loans, if applicable to such Designated Foreign Currency), and shall enter into an amendment to the Loan Documents to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes as may be applicable which are agreed by the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent at such time; provided, that any such amendment will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

146

(d)            The parties hereto agree that the parties will jointly use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy any applicable Internal Revenue Service guidance so that any replacement of LIBOR will not be treated as a deemed “exchange” under Section 1001 of the Code or “modification” under Section 1.1001-3 of the Treasury Regulations (including, but not limited to, substituting LIBOR for a “qualified rate,” as defined in Proposed Section 1.1001-6 of the Treasury Regulations).

147

4.8            Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a)            Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, each borrowing of Revolving Loans (other than Swing Line Loans) by the Borrowers from the Lenders hereunder shall be made, each payment (except as provided in Section 4.14(a)) by the Borrowers on account of any commitment fee in respect of the Revolving Commitments hereunder and any reduction (except as provided in Section 2.9, 2.10, 2.11, 4.13(d), 11.1(g) or 11.1(h)) of the Revolving Commitments of the Lenders shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent, pro rata according to the respective Revolving Commitment Percentages of the Lenders (other than payments in respect of any difference in the Applicable Commitment Fee Percentages in respect of any Tranche); provided that at the request of the Parent Borrower, in lieu of such application on a pro rata basis among all Revolving Commitments, such reduction may be applied to any Revolving Commitments so long as the Maturity Date of such Revolving Commitments precedes the Maturity Date of each other Tranche of Revolving Commitments then outstanding or, in the event more than one Tranche of Revolving Commitments shall have an identical Maturity Date that precedes the Maturity Date of each other Tranche of Revolving Commitments then outstanding, to such Tranches on a pro rata basis. Each payment (including each prepayment, but excluding payments made pursuant to Sections 2.9, 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13(d), 4.14, 11.1(g), 11.1(h) or 11.6) by the Borrowers on account of principal of and interest on any Tranche of Loans (other than (v) payments in respect of any difference in the Applicable Margin, Eurocurrency Rate, Term SOFR, Daily Simple XXXXX or ABR in respect of any Tranche, (w) any payment pursuant to Section 4.4(b)(i), to the extent declined by any Lender as provided in Section 4.4(b)(ii), (x) any payments pursuant to Section 4.4(f), which shall be allocated as set forth in Section 4.4(f); (y) any prepayments pursuant to Section 11.6(i) and (z) any payment accompanying a termination of Revolving Commitments pursuant to the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 4.8(a) which shall be applied to the Revolving Loans outstanding under the Tranches under which Revolving Commitments are being terminated) shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent (1) pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of such Loans of such Tranche then held by the respective Lenders (or as otherwise provided in the applicable Incremental Commitment Amendment, Extension Amendment or Specified Refinancing Amendment, if applicable) and (2) with respect to Extended Revolving Loans, pro rata with all other outstanding Revolving Loans; provided that a Lender may, at its option, and if agreed by the Parent Borrower, exchange such Lender’s portion of a Term Loan to be prepaid for Rollover Indebtedness, in lieu of such Lender’s pro rata portion of such prepayment, pursuant to the last sentence of Section 4.4(b)(iii). All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees, Reimbursement Amounts or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made prior to (x) 2:00 P.M., New York City time on the due date thereof in the case of payments denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars or any other Designated Foreign Currency not specified in clause (y) or (z), (y) 8:00 A.M., New York City time on the due date thereof in the case of payments denominated in Euro and Sterling and (z) 3:00 P.M., New York City time on the date that is one Business Day prior to the due date thereof in the case of payments denominated in Australian Dollars, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders holding the relevant Loan or the applicable Revolving L/C Participants, as the case may be, at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in Section 11.2, in Dollars or, in the case of Loans outstanding in any Designated Foreign Currency and L/C Obligations denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency, such Designated Foreign Currency and, whether in Dollars or any Designated Foreign Currency, in immediately available funds. Any pro rata calculations required to be made pursuant to this Section 4.8(a) in respect of any Revolving Loan denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency shall be made on a Dollar Equivalent basis. Payments received by the Administrative Agent after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to such Lenders or Revolving L/C Participants, as the case may be, if any such payment is received prior to 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on a Business Day, in like funds as received prior to the end of such Business Day and otherwise the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to such Lenders on the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurocurrency Loans or BA Equivalent Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a Eurocurrency Loan or a BA Equivalent Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension) unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. This Section 4.8(a) may be amended in accordance with Section 11.1(d) to the extent necessary to reflect differing amounts payable, and priorities of payments, to Lenders participating in any new Tranches added pursuant to Sections 2.9, 2.10, 2.11 and 11.1(h), as applicable.

148

(b)            Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to such Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower in respect of such borrowing a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to (i) for amounts denominated in Dollars, the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate as quoted by the Administrative Agent and (ii) for amounts denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency, the rate customary in such Designated Foreign Currency for settlement of similar interbank obligations, in each case for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 4.8(b) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of such Borrowing Date, (x) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower of the failure of such Lender to make such amount available to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to such borrowing hereunder on demand, from the Borrowers and (y) then the Borrowers may, without waiving or limiting any rights or remedies it may have against such Lender hereunder or under applicable law or otherwise, borrow a like amount on an unsecured basis from any commercial bank for a period ending on the date upon which such Lender does in fact make such borrowing available.

4.9            Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the Closing Date shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Term SOFR Loan, Eurocurrency Loans, XXXXX Loan or BA Equivalent Loan as contemplated by this Agreement (“Affected Loans”), (a) such Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Affected Loans, continue Affected Loans as such and convert an ABR Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan to an Affected Loan shall forthwith be cancelled and, until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain such Affected Loans, such Lender shall then have a commitment only to make an ABR Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Loan, as applicable, when an Affected Loan is requested, (c) such Lender’s Term SOFR Loans, XXXXX Loans or BA Equivalent Loans then outstanding, in each case, as Affected Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to ABR Loans (in the case of Term SOFR Loans), Central Bank Rate Loans (in the case of XXXXX Loans) or Canadian Prime Rate Loans~~, as applicable,~~ (in the case of BA Equivalent Loans) on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Affected Loans or within such earlier period as required by law and (d) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Affected Loans, if any, not converted to ABR Loans, Central Bank Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable, pursuant to Section 4.9(c) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, such Lender’s Eurocurrency Loans then outstanding) shall, upon notice to the Parent Borrower, be prepaid with accrued interest thereon on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto (or such earlier date as may be required by any such Requirement of Law). If any such conversion or prepayment of an Affected Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 4.12.

149

4.10            Requirements of Law.

(a)            If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof applicable to any Lender, or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority, in each case made subsequent to the Closing Date (or, if later, the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender):

(i)            shall subject such Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Letter of Credit, any L/C Request, any Eurocurrency Loans, XXXXX Loans or any BA Equivalent Loans made or maintained by it or its obligation to make or maintain Eurocurrency Loans, XXXXX Loans or BA Equivalent Loans, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof, in each case except for Non-Excluded Taxes and Excluded Taxes (other than Taxes imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated), franchise Taxes, and branch profits Taxes imposed as a result of such Lender being organized under the laws of, or having its principal office or its applicable lending office located in, the jurisdiction imposing such Tax (or any political subdivision thereof);

(ii)            shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurocurrency Rate, XXXXX or the BA Rate, as applicable, hereunder; or

(iii)            shall impose on such Lender any other condition (excluding any Tax of any kind whatsoever);

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurocurrency Loans, XXXXX Loans or BA Equivalent Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, upon notice to the Parent Borrower from such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, in accordance herewith, the Borrowers shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable with respect to such Eurocurrency Loans, XXXXX Loans, BA Equivalent Loans or Letters of Credit, provided that, in any such case, the Parent Borrower may elect to convert the Eurocurrency Loans or BA Equivalent Loans made by such Lender hereunder to ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans, as applicable by giving the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day’s (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) notice of such election, in which case the Borrowers shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon demand, without duplication, amounts theretofore required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to this Section 4.10(a) and such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 4.12. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 4.10, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Parent Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in this Section 4.10(a) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount demanded by such Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.10 submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Parent Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This Section 4.10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.10(a), no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 4.10(a) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Parent Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that, if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such six-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect.

150

(b)            If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority, in each case, made subsequent to the Closing Date, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, within 10 Business Days after submission by such Lender to the Parent Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor certifying (x) that one of the events described in this Section 4.10(b) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the reduction of the rate of return on capital resulting from such event and (z) as to the additional amount or amounts demanded by such Lender or corporation and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof, the Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or corporation for such reduction. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.10 submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Parent Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.10(b), no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 4.10(b) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Parent Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor.

(c)            Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, no Borrower shall be required to pay any amount with respect to any additional cost or reduction specified in paragraph (a) or paragraph (b) above, to the extent such additional cost or reduction is attributable, directly or indirectly, to the application of, compliance with or implementation of specific capital adequacy requirements or new methods of calculating capital adequacy, including any part or “pillar” (including Pillar 2 (“Supervisory Review Process”)), of the International Convergence of Capital Measurement Standards: a Revised Framework, published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in June 2004, or any implementation, adoption (whether voluntary or compulsory) thereof, whether by an EC Directive or the FSA Integrated Prudential Sourcebook or any other law or regulation, or otherwise. In addition, no Borrower shall be required to pay any amount with respect to any additional cost or reduction specified in paragraph (a) or paragraph (b) above unless such Lender delivers a certificate from a senior officer of such Lender certifying to the Parent Borrower that the request therefor is being made, and the method of calculation of the amount so requested is being applied, consistently with such Lender’s treatment of a majority of its customers in connection with similar transactions affected by the relevant adoption or change in a Requirement of Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.10, (x) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be an adoption of or change in any Requirement of Law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

151

4.11         Taxes.

(a)            Except as provided below in this Section 4.11 or as required by law, all payments made by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and any Issuing Lender under this Agreement and any Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority (“Taxes”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Non-Excluded Taxes” shall mean any Taxes imposed on or with respect to any payment made by or on account of any obligation of the Borrowers under any Loan Document other than (1) Taxes measured by or imposed upon the overall net income of any Agent or Lender or its applicable lending office, or any branch or affiliate thereof, and all franchise Taxes, branch profits Taxes, Taxes on doing business or Taxes measured by or imposed upon the overall capital or net worth of any such Agent or Lender or its applicable lending office, or any branch or affiliate thereof, in each case imposed: (i) by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Agent or Lender, applicable lending office, branch or affiliate is organized or is located, or in which its principal executive office is located, or any nation within which such jurisdiction is located or any political subdivision thereof; or (ii) by reason of any connection between the jurisdiction imposing such Tax and such Agent or Lender, applicable lending office, branch or affiliate other than a connection arising solely from such Agent or Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations under, or received payment under or enforced, this Agreement or any Notes; (2) Taxes attributable to an Agent or Lender failing to comply with the requirements of paragraphs (b), (c), (d) or (e) of this Section 4.11; (3) Taxes imposed in connection with the payment of any fees paid under this Agreement unless such Taxes are imposed as a result of a change in treaty, law or regulation that occurred after the date such Agent becomes an Agent hereunder or such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder, acquires its interest in the Loan, or changes its lending office (or, if such Agent or Lender is a non-U.S. intermediary or flow-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, after the relevant beneficiary or member of such Agent or Lender became such a beneficiary or member, if later) (such change, at such time, and with respect to any Agent or Lender (or, if applicable, its relevant beneficiary or member), a “Change in Law”); (4) with respect to any Taxes imposed by the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof, unless such Taxes are imposed as a result of a Change in Law; (5) with respect to any Taxes arising under FATCA; and (6) any backup withholding Taxes (any Taxes that are not Non-Excluded Taxes shall be referred to as “Excluded Taxes”). If any Non-Excluded Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable by the Borrowers or any Agent to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any Notes, the amounts so payable by the Borrowers shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement such that no withholding had been made; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, and shall not be required to indemnify for, any Excluded Taxes. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by the any Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Parent Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by such Borrower showing payment thereof. If any Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Parent Borrower or such Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for such Non-Excluded Taxes and any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure.

152

(b)            Each Agent and each Lender, in each case that is not a “United States person” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so:

(W)            (i)   on or before the date of any payment by any Borrower under this Agreement or any Notes to, or for the account of, such Agent or Lender, deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (A) two duly completed and accurate signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (certifying that it is a resident of the applicable country within the meaning of the income tax treaty between the United States and that country), Form W-8EXP or Form W-8ECI, or successor applicable form, as the case may be, in each case certifying that it is entitled to receive all payments under this Agreement and any Notes without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income taxes, (B) in the case of the Administrative Agent, also deliver two duly completed and accurate signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrowers to be treated as a U.S. person with respect to such payments (and the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a U.S. person with respect to such payments), with the effect that the Borrowers can make payments to the Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States and (C) such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be, certifying that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes;

(ii)            further deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete copies of any such form or certification on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certificate previously delivered by it to the Parent Borrower; and

(iii)            deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by the Parent Borrower, to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from withholding with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes; provided that in determining the reasonableness of a request under this clause (iii) such Lender shall be entitled to consider the cost (to the extent unreimbursed by the Borrowers) which would be imposed on such Lender of complying with such request; or

(Y)            in the case of any such Lender that is a non-U.S. intermediary or flow-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes,

155

(iii)            deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by the Parent Borrower, to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal entitlement of such Lender (or beneficiary or member) to an exemption from withholding with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes; provided that in determining the reasonableness of a request under this clause (iii) such Lender shall be entitled to consider the cost (to the extent unreimbursed by the Borrowers) which would be imposed on such Lender (or beneficiary or member) of complying with such request; or

unless in any such case any change in treaty, law or regulation has occurred after the date such Person becomes a Lender hereunder (or a beneficiary or member in the circumstances described in clause (Y) or (Z) above, if later) which renders all such forms or statements inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender (or such beneficiary or member) from duly completing and delivering any such form or statement with respect to it and such Lender so advises the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(c)            Each Lender and each Agent, in each case that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, shall on or before the date of any payment by any Borrower under this Agreement or any Notes to such Lender or Agent, deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or successor form, certifying that such Lender or Agent is a “United States person” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) and that such Lender or Agent is entitled to a complete exemption from United States backup withholding tax.

(e)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender and Agent agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered under Section 4.11(b), (c) or (d) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification as soon as reasonably practicable or promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f)            Each party’s obligations under this Section 4.11 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Loans and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

157

4.12            Indemnity. Without duplication of any amounts payable in Section 4.11, the Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify each Lender in respect of Extensions of Credit made, or requested to be made, to the Borrowers, and to hold each such Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur (other than through such Lender’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment) as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrowers in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans after the Parent Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrowers in making any prepayment or conversion of Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans after the Parent Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a payment or prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans or the conversion of Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or converted, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or conversion or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Eurocurrency Loans, Term SOFR Loans or BA Equivalent Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurocurrency market. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any amounts under the indemnity contained in this Section 4.12, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Parent Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in clause (a), (b) or (c) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (y) as to the loss or expense sustained or incurred by such Lender as a consequence thereof and (z) as to the amount for which such Lender seeks indemnification hereunder and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any indemnification pursuant to this Section 4.12 submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Parent Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This Section 4.12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. This Section shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

4.13            Certain Rules Relating to the Payment of Additional Amounts.

(a)            Upon the request, and at the expense of the Parent Borrower, each Lender to which any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 4.10 or 4.11, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall reasonably afford any Borrower the opportunity to contest, and reasonably cooperate with such Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Non-Excluded Tax giving rise to such payment; provided that (i) such Lender shall not be required to afford any Borrower the opportunity to so contest unless such Borrower shall have confirmed in writing to such Lender its obligation to pay such amounts pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the Borrowers shall reimburse such Lender for its reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in so cooperating with any Borrower in contesting the imposition of such Non-Excluded Tax; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be required to afford any Borrower the opportunity to contest, or cooperate with any Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Non-Excluded Taxes, if such Lender, in its reasonable discretion after good faith consultation with Parent Borrower, determines that to do so would have a material adverse effect with respect to the Taxes of Lender that is not reimbursed by Parent Borrower.

158

(b)            If a Lender changes its applicable lending office (other than pursuant to paragraph (c) below) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause any Borrower to become obligated to pay any additional amount under Section 4.10 or 4.11, such Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount, except to the extent that, pursuant to Section 4.11, amounts with respect to such Taxes were payable to such Lender immediately before it changed its lending office.

(c)            If a condition or an event occurs which would, or would upon the passage of time or giving of notice, result in the payment of any additional amount to any Lender by any Borrower pursuant to Section 4.10 or 4.11 or result in Affected Loans or commitments to make Affected Loans being automatically converted to ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Loans bearing an alternate rate of interest or commitments to make ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Loans bearing an alternate rate of interest, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 4.9, such Lender shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall take such steps as may reasonably be available to it to mitigate the effects of such condition or event (which shall include efforts to rebook the Loans and Commitments held by such Lender at another lending office, or through another branch or an affiliate, of such Lender); provided that such Lender shall not be required to take any step that, in its reasonable judgment, would be materially disadvantageous to its business or operations or would require it to incur additional costs (unless the Borrowers agree to reimburse such Lender for the reasonable incremental out-of-pocket costs thereof).

(d)            If any Borrower shall become obligated to pay additional amounts pursuant to Section 4.10 or 4.11 and any affected Lender shall not have promptly taken steps necessary to avoid the need for payments under Section 4.10 or 4.11 or if Affected Loans or commitments to make Affected Loans are automatically converted to ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Loans bearing an alternate rate of interest or commitments to make ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Loans bearing an alternate rate of interest, as the case may be, under Section 4.9 and any affected Lender shall not have promptly taken steps necessary to avoid the need for such conversion under Section 4.9, the Parent Borrower shall have the right, for so long as such obligation remains, (i) with the assistance of the Administrative Agent, to seek one or more substitute Lenders reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower to purchase the affected Loan or Commitment or Revolving L/C Participation, as the case may be, in whole or in part, at in the case of Loans and Commitments an aggregate price no less than such Loan’s or Commitment’s principal amount plus accrued interest, and assume the affected obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) upon notice to the Administrative Agent, to prepay the affected Loan, in whole or in part, subject to Section 4.12, without premium or penalty and terminate the Revolving Commitments of such Lender. In the case of the substitution of a Lender, the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the affected Lender, and any substitute Lender shall execute and deliver a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Section 11.6(b) to effect the assignment of rights to, and the assumption of obligations by, the substitute Lender; provided that any fees required to be paid by Section 11.6(b) in connection with such assignment shall be paid by a Borrower or the substitute Lender. In the case of a prepayment of an affected Loan, the amount specified in the notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with any accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. In the case of each of the substitution of a Lender and of the prepayment of an affected Loan, the Borrowers shall first pay the affected Lender any additional amounts owing under Sections 4.10 and 4.11 (as well as any commitment fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender, including any amounts under this Section 4.13) prior to such substitution or prepayment. In the case of the substitution of a Lender, if the Lender being replaced does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (a) the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrowers owing to such replaced Lender relating to the Loans and Revolving L/C Participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Lender being replaced, then the Lender being replaced shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Parent Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Lender.

(e)            If any Agent or any Lender receives a refund directly attributable to taxes for which any Borrower has made additional payments pursuant to Section 4.10(a) or 4.11(a), such Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall promptly pay such refund (together with any interest with respect thereto received from the relevant taxing authority, but net of any reasonable, documented out-of-pocket cost incurred in connection therewith) to such Borrower; provided, however, that such Borrower agrees promptly to return such refund (together with any interest with respect thereto due to the relevant taxing authority) (free of all Non-Excluded Taxes) to such Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, upon receipt of a notice that such refund is required to be repaid to the relevant taxing authority.

(f)            The obligations of any Agent, Lender or Participant under this Section 4.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all amounts payable hereunder.

(g)            Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to Section 4.10 or 4.11 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to Section 4.10 or 4.11 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered or Taxes more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Parent Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions or Taxes, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefore (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions or Taxes is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effective thereof)

160

(d)            if any Swing Line Exposure exists or any Revolving L/C Obligations exist at the time a Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i)            all or any part of such Swing Line Exposure and Revolving L/C Obligations shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages but only to the extent the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Exposure and Revolving L/C Obligations does not exceed the total of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments;

(ii)            if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Defaulting Lender’s Swing Line Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) on terms reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender for so long as such Revolving L/C Obligations are outstanding; or

161

(iii)          if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Obligations is cash collateralized pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Parent Borrower shall not be required to pay the commitment fee that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such Revolving L/C Obligations) or the letter of credit commission payable with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Obligations;

(iv)          if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Obligations is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to clause (i) above, then the letter of credit commission with respect to such portion shall be allocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Commitment Percentages;

(e)            the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and a Revolving Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend, extend or increase any Revolving Letter of Credit, unless the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateralized on terms reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender, and participations in any such newly issued or increased Revolving Letter of Credit or newly made Swing Line Loan shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Percentages (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein);

162

(g)            in the event that the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower, each applicable Revolving Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swing Line Exposure and Revolving L/C Obligations of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Commitment Percentage. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 4.14 are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Issuing Lenders, the Swing Line Lender and the Non-Defaulting Lenders may have against such Defaulting Lender. The arrangements permitted or required by this Section 4.14 shall be permitted under this Agreement, notwithstanding any limitation on Liens or the pro rata sharing provisions or otherwise.

Section 5.      REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES`.

5.2            No Change; Solvent. Since May 2, 2021, (a) there has been no development or event relating to or affecting any Loan Party which has had or would be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (after giving effect to (i) the making of the Extensions of Credit to be made on the Closing Date and the application of the proceeds thereof as contemplated hereby, (ii) the consummation of the Transactions on the Closing Date and (iii) the payment of actual or estimated fees, expenses, financing costs and tax payments related to the transactions contemplated hereby) and (b) except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement and each other Loan Document, no dividends or other distributions have been declared, paid or made upon the Capital Stock of the Parent Borrower, and none of the Capital Stock of the Parent Borrower been redeemed, retired, purchased or otherwise acquired for value by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. As of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the consummation of the transactions described in preceding clauses (i) through (iii) in clause (a) above, the Parent Borrower, together with its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, is Solvent.

163

5.3            Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law. Each of the Loan Parties (a) is duly organized, validly existing and (to the extent applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, except (other than with respect to the Parent Borrower), to the extent that the failure to be organized, existing and (to the extent applicable) in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) has the corporate or other organizational power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, except to the extent that the failure to have such legal right would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company and (to the extent applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, other than in such jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified and (to the extent applicable) in good standing would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law, except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith would not, in the aggregate, be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.4            Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the corporate or other organizational power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrowers, to obtain Extensions of Credit hereunder, and each such Loan Party has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of each Borrower, to authorize the Extensions of Credit to it, if any, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, any Notes and the L/C Requests. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other similar act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required to be obtained or made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents to which it is a party or, in the case of each Borrower, with the Extensions of Credit to it, if any, hereunder, except for (a) consents, authorizations, notices and filings described in Schedule 5.4, all of which have been obtained or made prior to the Closing Date, (b) filings to perfect the Liens created by the Security Documents (other than during any Collateral Suspension Period), (c) filings pursuant to the Assignment of Claims Act of 1940, as amended (31 U.S.C. § 3727 et seq.), in respect of Accounts of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries the Obligor in respect of which is the United States of America or any department, agency or instrumentality thereof and (d) consents, authorizations, notices and filings which the failure to obtain or make would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each Borrower, and each other Loan Document to which any Loan Party is a party will be duly executed and delivered on behalf of such Loan Party. This Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Borrower and each other Loan Document to which any Loan Party is a party when executed and delivered will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, in each case except as enforceability may be limited by applicable domestic or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

164

5.5            No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents by any of the Loan Parties, the Extensions of Credit hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof (a) will not violate any Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation of such Loan Party in any respect that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (b) will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any of its properties or revenues pursuant to any such Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation.

5.6            No Material Litigation. No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Parent Borrower, threatened by or against Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or against any of their respective properties or revenues, (a) except as described on Schedule 5.6, which is so pending or threatened at any time on or prior to the Closing Date and relates to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or (b) which would be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.7            No Default.

5.8            Ownership of Property; Liens. Each of the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries has good title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its material real property located in the United States of America, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other material property located in the United States of America, except where the failure to have such title would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and none of such property is subject to any Lien, except for Permitted Liens. Except for the Excluded Properties, the Mortgaged Properties described on Schedule 5.8 together constitute all the material real properties owned in fee by the Loan Parties as of the Third Amendment Effective Date.

5.9            Intellectual Property. The Parent Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries owns, or has the legal right to use, all United States and foreign patents, patent applications, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, and trade secrets necessary for each of them to conduct its business as currently conducted (the “Intellectual Property”) except for those the failure to own or have such legal right to use would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as provided on Schedule 5.9, no claim has been asserted and is pending by any Person against the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property, or the validity of any such Intellectual Property, nor does the Parent Borrower know of any such claim, and, to the knowledge of the Parent Borrower, the use of such Intellectual Property by the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries does not infringe on the rights of any Person, except for such claims and infringements which, in the aggregate, would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

165

5.10          No Burdensome Restrictions. Neither the Parent Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of any Requirement of Law applicable to the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that would be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.14          Collateral. Upon execution and delivery thereof by the parties thereto, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the Mortgages will be effective to create (to the extent described therein) in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein, except as may be limited by applicable domestic or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(iii)          Other than during a Collateral Suspension Period, if any Borrower is in default of its obligations to insure or deliver any such prepaid policy or policies, the result of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, then the Administrative Agent, at its option upon 10 days’ written notice to the Parent Borrower, may effect such insurance from year to year at rates substantially similar to the rate at which such Loan Party had insured such property, and pay the premium or premiums therefor, and the Parent Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent on demand such premium or premiums so paid by the Administrative Agent with interest from the time of payment at a rate per annum equal to 2.00%.

214

In the case of all Revolving Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the applicable Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Revolving Letters of Credit (and each Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in all amounts at any time on deposit in such cash collateral account to secure the undrawn and unexpired amount of such Revolving Letters of Credit and all other obligations of the Borrowers under the Loan Documents). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any funds held in such cash collateral account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate undrawn and unexpired amount of outstanding Revolving Letters of Credit, the applicable Borrowers, shall, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent pay to the Administrative Agent as additional funds to be deposited and held in such cash collateral account, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate undrawn and unexpired amount over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in such cash collateral account that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Amounts held in such cash collateral account with respect to Revolving Letters of Credit shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Revolving Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Revolving Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After all such Revolving Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Amounts shall have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the applicable Borrower (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Lender in its capacity as a Secured Party or as beneficiary of any security granted pursuant to the Security Documents shall have any right to exercise remedies in respect of such security without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders.

Except as expressly provided above in this Section 9, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (x) no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to be “continuing” or “existing” if the events, act or condition that gave rise to such Default or Event of Default have been remedied or cured or have ceased to exist and (y) any Default or Event of Default that occurs due to (I) the failure by the Parent Borrower to deliver notice pursuant to Section 7.7(a) or (II) the making or deemed making of any representation or warranty by any Loan Party, in each case, shall be deemed to be no longer continuing automatically upon and simultaneously with the underlying Default or Event of Default that would have been subject to such notice or representation or warranty ceasing to be continuing; provided that (A) the foregoing clauses (x) and (y)(I) shall not be applicable if the Borrowers had knowledge of such underlying Default or Event of Default, as applicable, prior to cessation and failed to give timely notice to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders as required and (B) the foregoing clause (y)(II) shall not be applicable if the Borrowers had knowledge of such underlying Default or Event of Default at the time such representation or warrant was made or deemed made.

215

If, after giving effect to the foregoing pro forma adjustment (without giving effect to any repayment of any Indebtedness with any portion of the Cure Amount or any portion of the Cure Amount on the balance sheet of the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case, with respect to such fiscal quarter only, the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall then be in compliance with the Financial Maintenance Covenant, they shall be deemed to have been in compliance therewith as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default hereunder that had occurred shall be deemed cured for the purposes of this Agreement.

(b)           The parties hereby acknowledge that notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Cure Amount received pursuant to the occurrence of any Specified Equity Contribution shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating Consolidated EBITDA in any determination of any financial ratio-based conditions, pricing or basket in this Agreement (other than as applicable to the Financial Maintenance Covenant).

(c)           no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to exist from the end of the applicable fiscal quarter until the Anticipated Cure Deadline, (i) the Lenders shall not be permitted to accelerate Loans held by them, to terminate the Revolving Commitments held by them or to exercise remedies against the Collateral on the basis of a failure to comply with the requirements of the financial covenants set forth in Section 8.9(b), unless such failure is not cured pursuant to the exercise of the cure right on or prior to the Anticipated Cure Deadline and (ii) no Revolving Lender or Revolving Issuing Lender shall be required to make any Extension of Credit hereunder until such Cure Amount has been received by the Parent Borrower in an amount and on other terms sufficient to cure the Financial Covenant Event of Default referred to in this Section 9.2 in respect of the Financial Maintenance Covenant.

(a)            The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of the Parent Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Term Credit Percentages or Revolving Commitment Percentages, as the case may be, in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 10.7 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their respective Term Credit Percentages or Revolving Commitment Percentages, as the case may be, immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by any Agent (or any Affiliate thereof) under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements to the extent arising from (a) such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision or (b) claims made or legal proceedings commenced against such Agent by any security holder or creditor thereof arising out of and based upon rights afforded any such security holder or creditor solely in its capacity as such. The obligations to indemnify each Revolving Issuing Lender shall be ratable among the Revolving L/C Participants in accordance with their Revolving Commitment Percentage. The agreements in this Section 10.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b)           Any Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder and under any other Loan Document (except actions expressly required to be taken by it hereunder or under the Loan Documents) unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

219

(c)           The agreements in this Section 10.7 shall survive the payment of all Borrower Obligations and Guarantor Obligations (each as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement).

10.8         The Administrative Agent and Other Representatives in Their Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent, the Other Representatives and their Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party as though the Administrative Agent and the Other Representatives were not the Administrative Agent or the Other Representatives hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to Loans made or renewed by them and any Note issued to them and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by them, the Administrative Agent and the Other Representatives shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though they were not the Administrative Agent or an Other Representative, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent and the Other Representatives in their individual capacities.

10.9         Collateral Matters.

(a)           Each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into (x) the Security Documents, any Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties, (y) any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to the Security Documents, any Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement or enter into a separate intercreditor agreement in connection with the incurrence by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof of Additional Indebtedness (each an “Intercreditor Agreement Supplement”) to permit such Additional Indebtedness to be secured by a valid, perfected lien (with such priority as may be designated by the relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary, to the extent such priority is permitted by the Loan Documents) and (z) any Incremental Commitment Amendment as provided in Section 2.9, any Increase Supplement as provided in Section 2.9, any Lender Joinder Agreement as provided in Section 2.9, any Extension Amendment as provided in Section 2.10, any Specified Refinancing Amendment as provided in Section 2.11 and any agreement required in connection with a Permitted Debt Exchange Offer pursuant to Section 2.12). Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note or participant in Revolving Letters of Credit by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Security Documents, any Intercreditor Agreement, any Other Intercreditor Agreement (both as amended by any Intercreditor Agreement Supplement), any Incremental Commitment Amendment, any Increase Supplement, any Lender Joinder Agreement, any Extension Amendment, any Specified Refinancing Amendment or any agreement required in connection with a Permitted Debt Exchange Offer and the exercise by the Agents or the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent are hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents. Each Lender agrees that it will not have any right individually to enforce or seek to enforce any Security Document or to realize upon any Collateral for the Loans unless instructed to do so by the Collateral Agent, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by the Collateral Agent. The Collateral Agent may grant extensions of time for the creation and perfection of security interests in or the obtaining of title insurance, legal opinions or other deliverables with respect to particular assets or the provision of any guarantee by any Subsidiary (including extensions beyond the Closing Date or in connection with assets acquired, or Subsidiaries formed or acquired, after the Closing Date) where it determines that such action cannot be accomplished without undue effort or expense by the time or times at which it would otherwise be required to be accomplished by this Agreement or the Security Documents.

220

(b)            The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, (A) to release any Lien granted to or held by such Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the obligations under the Loan Documents at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby that are then due and unpaid, (ii) constituting property being sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than a Loan Party) upon the sale or other disposition thereof in compliance with Section 8.4, (iii) owned by any Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower which becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower or constituting Capital Stock or other equity interests of an Excluded Subsidiary, (iv) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such greater amount, to the extent required by Section 11.1), or (v) as otherwise may be expressly provided herein or in the relevant Security Documents (including in connection with any Collateral Suspension); (B) at the written request of the Parent Borrower to subordinate any Lien on any Excluded Assets (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) (or to confirm in writing the absence of any Lien thereon) or any other property granted to or held by such Agent, as the case may be under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien; (C) to release any Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower from its Obligations under any Loan Documents to which it is a party (including its Subsidiary Guaranty) if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary and (D) enter into any intercreditor agreement (including any Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement) on behalf of, and binding with respect to, the Lenders and their interest in designated assets, to give effect to any Special Purpose Financing, including to clarify the respective rights of all parties in and to designated assets. Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, at any time, the Required Lenders or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement will confirm in writing such Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 10.9.

(c)            The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent as the case may be, in each case at its option and in its discretion, to enter into any amendment, amendment and restatement, restatement, waiver, supplement or modification, and to make or consent to any filings or to take any other actions, in each case as contemplated by Section 11.1. Upon request by the Administrative Agent, at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s and the Collateral Agent’s authority under this Section 10.9(c).

221

(d)            No Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to any 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 Section 10.9 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed by the Lenders that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, each Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given such Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as Lender and that no Agent shall have any duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(e)            Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, any Security Document may be amended (or amended and restated), restated, waived, supplemented or modified as contemplated by and in accordance with Section 11.1 or Section 11.18 with the written consent of the Agent party thereto and the Loan Party party thereto.

(f)             The Collateral Agent may, and hereby does, 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.

10.10        Successor Agent. Subject to the appointment of a successor as set forth herein, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may each resign upon 10 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Parent Borrower and if the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent becomes a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, either the Required Lenders or the Parent Borrower may, upon 10 days’ notice to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent as applicable, remove such Agent. If the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall resign or be removed as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders (in the case of the Administrative Agent) shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be subject to approval by the Parent Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed if such successor is a commercial bank with a consolidated combined capital and surplus of at least $5,000,000,000) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the term “Administrative Agent” or “Collateral Agent,” as applicable, shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval and such successor agent’s acceptance of such appointment, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans or issuers of Letters of Credit; provided, that a retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold the Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties until such time as a successor of such Collateral Agent is appointed and has accepted such appointment. Each Joint Bookrunner and the Senior Co-Manager, may resign as an Agent hereunder upon 10 days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, Lenders and the Parent Borrower, or if any such Agent has admitted in writing that it is insolvent or becomes a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, either the Required Lenders or the Parent Borrower may, upon 10 days’ notice to such Agent, remove such Agent. If the Collateral Agent, any Joint Bookrunner or any Senior Co-Manager shall resign or be removed as Collateral Agent, Joint Bookrunner, or Senior Co-Manager hereunder, as applicable, the duties, rights, obligations and responsibilities of such Agent hereunder, if any, shall automatically be assumed by, and inure to the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, without any further act by any Agent or any Lender. After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal as Agent, the provisions of this Section 10 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Additionally, after such retiring Agent’s resignation or removal as such Agent, the provisions of this Section 10.10 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was such Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. After the resignation or removal of any Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding provisions of this Section 10.10, such resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall not be required to act as Issuing Lender for any Letters of Credit to be issued after the date of such resignation or removal, although the resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall retain all rights hereunder as Issuing Lender with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it prior to the effectiveness of its resignation or removal as Administrative Agent hereunder.

222

10.11        Other Representatives. None of the Joint Bookrunners or any Senior Co-Manager nor any of the entities identified as joint bookrunners and joint lead arrangers pursuant to the definition of “Other Representative” contained herein, shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder or under any other Loan Document in its capacity as such.

10.12        Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, each Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax, and in no event shall such Agent be required to be responsible for or pay any additional amount with respect to any such withholding. If any payment has been made to any Lender by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent has paid over the applicable withholding tax to the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority, or 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 because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify such Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from or reduction of withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, 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.

223

10.13        Application of Proceeds. The Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent agree, as among such parties, as follows: subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph and the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement, any Other Intercreditor Agreement and any Intercreditor Agreement Supplement, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender on account of amounts then due and outstanding under any of the Loan Documents (the “Collection Amounts”) shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, be distributed and applied in the following order (in each case, to the extent the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge of the amounts owing or outstanding as described below and subject to any application of any such amounts otherwise required pursuant to Section 4.4(b), or otherwise required by any Intercreditor Agreement, any Other Intercreditor Agreement and any Intercreditor Agreement Supplement): (1) first, to pay (on a ratable basis) all reasonable fees and out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees to the extent provided herein) due and owing to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents, including in connection with enforcing the rights of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders under the Loan Documents (including all expenses of sale or other realization of or in respect of the Collateral and any sums advanced to the Collateral Agent or to preserve its security interest in the Collateral); (2) second, to pay (on a ratable basis) all reasonable fees and out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent provided herein) due and owing to each of the Lenders and each of the Issuing Lenders under the Loan Documents, including in connection with enforcing such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents; (3) third, to pay (on a ratable basis) to the applicable Revolving Issuing Lender with respect to a Revolving Letter of Credit, any Revolving L/C Participant’s Revolving Commitment Percentage of any unreimbursed payment made by such Revolving Issuing Lender under a Revolving Letter of Credit that has not been paid by the applicable Borrower, provided that the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties shall be subrogated to the rights of such Revolving Issuing Lender against such Revolving L/C Participant with respect to any amount paid pursuant to this clause “third”; (4) fourth, to pay (on a ratable basis) accrued and unpaid interest on Loans then outstanding; (5) fifth, to pay (on a ratable basis) principal of Loans then outstanding, obligations under Hedge Agreements and Bank Products Agreements secured by the Security Documents, and any Reimbursement Amounts then outstanding and not reimbursed pursuant to clause “third” above (or in the case of Term Letters of Credit, the immediately succeeding paragraph), and to cash collateralize any outstanding L/C Obligations on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (in the case of Term L/C Obligations, to the extent not cash collateralized as provided in the immediately succeeding paragraph); (6) sixth, to pay (on a ratable basis) all other outstanding amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders; and (7) seventh, to pay the surplus, if any, to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. To the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “fifth” above are attributable to the issued but undrawn amount of outstanding Letters of Credit which are then not yet required to be reimbursed hereunder, such amounts shall be held by the Collateral Agent in a cash collateral account and applied (x) first, to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender from time to time for any drawings under such Letters of Credit and (y) then, following the expiration of all Letters of Credit, to all other obligations of the types described in such clause “fifth”. To the extent any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “fifth” are insufficient to pay all obligations described therein in full, such moneys shall be allocated pro rata among the Persons entitled to payment of such obligations based on the relative amounts of such obligations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any Term C Loan Collateral Account (and all amounts deposited therein or credited thereto), any Collection Amounts so received in respect thereof shall be applied as follows:

(i)             First, on a pro rata basis, to the payment of all amounts due to the relevant Term Issuing Lenders in an amount equal to all unreimbursed payments made by Term Issuing Lenders in respect of Term Letters of Credit that have not been paid by the applicable Borrowers;

224

(ii)            Second, on a pro rata basis, to the payment of all other amounts due to the Term Issuing Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, in their capacity as such;

(iii)           Third, on a pro rata basis, to cash collateralize any remaining outstanding Term L/C Obligations on terms reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Term Issuing Lenders;

(iv)           Fourth, on a pro rata basis, to the payment of all other Obligations in respect of the Term C Loans (in the order specified in clauses (2), (4) and (5) above with respect to all other Collection Amounts);

(v)            Last, the balance, if any, after all of the relevant Term L/C Obligations and Obligations in respect of Term C Loans have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash, as set forth above with respect to all other Collection Amounts.

This Section 10.13 may be amended (and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such amendment) to the extent necessary to reflect differing amounts payable, and priorities of payments, to Lenders participating in any new classes or tranches of loans added pursuant to Sections 2.9, 2.10 and 2.11, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Excluded Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) with respect to any Guarantor shall not be paid with amounts received from such Guarantor or its assets and such Excluded Obligations shall be disregarded in any application of Collection Amounts pursuant to the preceding paragraph.

10.14        Erroneous Payments.

(a)            Each Lender and each Issuing Lender (and each Participant of any of the foregoing, by its acceptance of a Participation) hereby acknowledges and agrees that if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender or Issuing Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds (or any portion thereof) received by such Lender or Issuing Lender (any of the foregoing, a “Recipient”) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Recipient (whether or not known to such Recipient) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) and demands the return of such Payment, such Recipient shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment as to which such a demand was made. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Recipient under this Section shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b)            Without limitation of clause (a) above, each Recipient further acknowledges and agrees that if such Recipient receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in an amount, or on a date different from the amount and/or date specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, or (z) that such Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, it understands and agrees at the time of receipt of such Payment that an error has been made (and that it is deemed to have knowledge of such error) with respect to such Payment. Each Recipient agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made.

225

(c)            Any Payment required to be returned by a Recipient under this Section shall be made in Same Day Funds in the currency so received, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Recipient to the date such amount is repaid 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 from time to time in effect. Each Recipient hereby agrees that it shall not assert and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hereby waives, any right to retain such Payment, and any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment or similar right to any demand by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payment received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(d)            The Borrowers and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party except, in each case, to the extent such erroneous Payment is, and with respect to the amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party.

(e)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (but without limitation of the agreements set forth in the immediately preceding clause (d)), none of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries has acquired or incurred (or will acquire or incur) any additional rights or obligations under this Section 10.14.

226

(d)            Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, (v) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended in accordance with Section 2.9 to incorporate the terms of any Incremental Commitments (including to add a new revolving facility or synthetic or other letter of credit facility under this Agreement with respect to any Incremental Revolving Commitment or Incremental Letter of Credit Commitment) with the written consent of the Borrowers and the Lenders providing such Incremental Commitments, provided that if such amendment includes an Incremental Commitment of a bank or other financial institution that is not at such time a Lender or an affiliate of a Lender, the inclusion of such bank or other financial institution as an Additional Incremental Lender shall be subject to the Administrative Agent’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) at the time of such amendment, (w) the scheduled date of maturity of any Loan owed to any Lender or any Commitment of any Lender may be extended, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended to effect such extension in accordance with Section 2.10, with the written consent of the Borrowers and the Extending Lenders, as contemplated by Section 2.10 or otherwise, (x) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended in accordance with Section 2.11 to incorporate the terms of any Specified Refinancing Facilities with the written consent of the Parent Borrower and the Specified Refinancing Lenders, (y) with the written consent of the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in each case such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), in the event any mandatory prepayment or redemption provision in respect of the Net Proceeds from Asset Dispositions or Recovery Events included or to be included in any Incremental Commitment Amendment or any Indebtedness constituting Additional Obligations or that would constitute Additional Obligations would result in Incremental Term Loans or Additional Obligations, as applicable, being prepaid or redeemed on a more than ratable basis with the Term Loans in respect of the Net Proceeds from any such Asset Disposition or Recovery Event to the extent such Net Proceeds are required to be applied to repay Term Loans hereunder pursuant to subsection 4.4(b)(i)(A), to provide for mandatory prepayments of the Term Loans (or, if applicable, Term Loans other than Initial Term C Loans and other Term Loans in the form of term “C” loans) such that, after giving effect thereto, the prepayments made in respect of such Incremental Term Loans or Additional Obligations, as applicable, are not on more than a ratable basis and (z) the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may amend this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the consent of any Lender to cure any ambiguity, mistake, omission, defect or inconsistency, in each case without the consent of any other Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including Section 4.4(a), 4.8(a) or 11.7 hereof, may be amended as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence pursuant to any Incremental Commitment Amendment, any Extension Amendment or Specified Refinancing Amendment, as the case may be, to provide for non-pro rata borrowings and payments of any amounts hereunder as between any Tranches, including the Term Loans, Revolving Commitments, Revolving Loans, any Incremental Commitments or Incremental Loans, any Extended Tranche and any Specified Refinancing Tranche, or to provide for the inclusion, as appropriate, of the Lenders of any Incremental Commitments or Incremental Loans, any Extended Tranche or any Specified Refinancing Tranche in any required vote or action of the Required Lenders or of the Lenders of each Tranche hereunder. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees (if requested by the Parent Borrower) to execute any amendment referred to in this clause (d) or an acknowledgement thereof.

229

(e)            Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be amended (or deemed amended) or amended and restated with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (x) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the existing Facility and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof, (y) to include, as appropriate, the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any required vote or action of the Required Lenders or of the Lenders of each Facility or Tranche hereunder and (z) to provide class protection for any additional credit facilities.

(f)             Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, any Security Document may be amended (or amended and restated), restated, waived, supplemented or modified to better implement the intentions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or as required by local law to give effect to or to protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties in any property so that the security interests comply with applicable law, or as contemplated by Section 11.18, in each case with the written consent of the Agent party thereto and the Loan Party party thereto.

(g)            If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of or to any of the provisions of this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document as contemplated by Section 11.1(a), the consent of each Lender, each Revolving Lender or each affected Lender, as applicable, is required and the consent of the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable, at such time is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (each such other Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) then the Parent Borrower may, on notice to the Administrative Agent and the Non-Consenting Lender, (A) replace such Non-Consenting Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 11.6 (with the assignment fee and any other costs and expenses to be paid by the Borrowers in such instance) 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 Borrowers to find a replacement Lender; provided, further, that the applicable assignee shall have agreed to the applicable change, waiver, discharge or termination of this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents; and provided, further, that all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non-Consenting Lender relating to the Loans, Commitments and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender (or, at their option, by the Borrowers) to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance or (B) prepay the Loans and, if applicable, terminate the Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lender, in whole or in part, subject to Section 4.12, without premium or penalty. In connection with any such replacement under this Section 11.1(g), if the Non-Consenting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (a) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrowers owing to the Non-Consenting Lender relating to the Loans, Commitments and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Non-Consenting Lender, then such Non-Consenting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Parent Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Consenting Lender.

230

(h)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time and from time to time, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the applicable Lenders) specifying in reasonable detail the proposed terms thereof, the Parent Borrower may make one or more loan modification offers to all the Lenders of any Tranche that would, if and to the extent accepted by any such Lender, (a) change the Applicable Margin, premium and/or fees payable with respect to the Loans and Commitments under such Facility (in each case solely with respect to the Loans and Commitments of accepting Lenders in respect of which an acceptance is delivered), (b) add any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed between the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the accepting Lenders; provided that such covenants and provisions are applicable only during periods after the Initial Revolving Maturity Date and (c) treat the Loans and Commitments so modified as a new “Facility” and a new “Tranche” for all purposes under this Agreement; provided that (i) such loan modification offer is made to each Lender under the applicable Facility on the same terms and subject to the same procedures as are applicable to all other Lenders under such Facility (which procedures in any case shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) and (ii) no loan modification shall affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender or any Issuing Lender, without its prior written consent. In connection with any such loan modification, the Borrowers and each accepting Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such agreements and other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the applicable loan modification offer and the terms and conditions thereof, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended in a writing (which may be executed and delivered by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and shall be effective only with respect to the applicable Loans and Commitments of Lenders that shall have accepted the relevant loan modification offer (and only with respect to Loans and Commitments as to which any such Lender has accepted the loan modification offer) (each such accepting Lender, a “Modifying Lender”)) to the extent necessary or appropriate, in the judgment of the Administrative Agent, to reflect the existence of, and to give effect to the terms and conditions of, the applicable loan modification (including the addition of such modified Loans and/or Commitments as a “Facility” or a “Tranche” hereunder). No Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to accept any loan modification offer, and may reject any such offer in its sole discretion (each such non-accepting Lender, a “Non-Modifying Lender”). The Parent Borrower shall have the right, at its sole expense and effort (A) to seek one or more Persons reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower to each become a substitute Lender and assume all or part of the Commitment of any Non-Modifying Lender and the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any such substitute Lender shall execute and deliver, and such Non-Modifying Lender shall thereupon be deemed to have executed and delivered, a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance to effect such substitution or (B) upon notice to the Administrative Agent, and, at the Parent Borrower’s option, to prepay the Loans and/or terminate the Commitments of such Non-Modifying Lender, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. If the Parent Borrower elects to terminate the Commitments of such Non-Modifying Lender pursuant to clause (B) above, participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans and/or Revolving L/C Obligations shall be reallocated so that after giving effect thereto the Modifying Lenders share ratably in the Swing Line Loans and/or Revolving L/C Obligations of the applicable Tranche in accordance with their applicable Commitments (and notwithstanding Section 4.12, no Borrower shall be liable for any amounts under Section 4.12 as a result of such reallocation), and the Borrowers shall repay any Swing Line Loans and/or cash collateralize Revolving L/C Obligations, and make any payments of accrued interest and any accrued letter of credit commission, in each case to the extent necessary as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to effect such reallocation.

231

(i)             Upon the execution by the Parent Borrower and delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Subsidiary Borrower Termination with respect to any Subsidiary Borrower, such Subsidiary Borrower shall cease to be a Borrower; provided that the Subsidiary Borrower Termination shall not be effective (other than to terminate its right to borrow additional Revolving Loans under this Agreement) unless (x) another Borrower shall remain liable for the principal of or interest on any Loan to such Subsidiary Borrower outstanding hereunder or (y) the obligations of such Subsidiary Borrower shall have been assumed by another Borrower, in each case on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In the event that a Subsidiary Borrower shall cease to be a Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower, the Parent Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Subsidiary Borrower Termination terminating its status as a Borrower, subject to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence.

232

(j)             Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any determination as to whether the requisite Lenders have (A) consented (or not consented) to any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, any Lender (other than (x) any Lender that is a Regulated Bank and (y) any Revolving Lender as of the Closing Date) that, as a result of its interest in any total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default swap or other derivative contract (other than any such total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default swap or other derivative contract entered into pursuant to bona fide market making activities), has a net short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments (each, a “Net Short Lender”) shall have no right to vote any of its Loans and Commitments and shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Net Short Lenders (in each case unless otherwise agreed to by the Parent Borrower). For purposes of determining whether a Lender has a “net short position” on any date of determination: (i) derivative contracts with respect to the Loans and Commitments and such contracts that are the functional equivalent thereof shall be counted at the notional amount thereof in Dollars, (ii) notional amounts in other currencies shall be converted to the dollar equivalent thereof by such Lender in a commercially reasonable manner consistent with generally accepted financial practices and based on the prevailing conversion rate (determined on a mid-market basis) on the date of determination, (iii) derivative contracts in respect of an index that includes any of the Borrowers or other Loan Parties or any instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the Borrowers or other Loan Parties shall not be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments, so long as (x) such index is not created, designed, administered or requested by such Lender and (y) the Borrowers and other Loan Parties and any instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the Borrowers or other Loan Parties, collectively, shall represent less than 5% of the components of such index, (iv) derivative transactions that are documented using either the 2014 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions or the 2003 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions (collectively, the “ISDA CDS Definitions”) shall be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments if such Lender is a protection buyer or the equivalent thereof for such derivative transaction and (x) the Loans or the Commitments are a “Reference Obligation” under the terms of such derivative transaction (whether specified by name in the related documentation, included as a “Standard Reference Obligation” on the most recent list published by Markit, if “Standard Reference Obligation” is specified as applicable in the relevant documentation or in any other manner), (y) the Loans or the Commitments would be a “Deliverable Obligation” under the terms of such derivative transaction or (z) any of the Borrowers or other Loan Parties (or any of their successors) is designated as a “Reference Entity” under the terms of such derivative transactions, and (v) credit derivative transactions or other derivatives transactions not documented using the ISDA CDS Definitions shall be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments if such transactions are functionally equivalent to a transaction that offers the Lender protection in respect of the Loans or the Commitments, or as to the credit quality of any of the Borrowers or other Loan Parties (or any of their successors) other than, in each case, as part of an index so long as (x) such index is not created, designed, administered or requested by such Lender and (y) the Borrowers and other Loan Parties and any instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the Borrowers or other Loan Parties, collectively, shall represent less than 5% of the components of such index. In connection with any such determination, each Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing that it is a Net Short Lender, or shall otherwise be deemed to have represented and warranted to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent that it is not a Net Short Lender (it being understood and agreed that the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on each such representation and deemed representation); provided, however, that it is understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for monitoring or enforcing the provisions set forth in this Section 11.1(j) or any other term of this Agreement related to Net Short Lenders, nor shall the Administrative Agent have any liability in respect thereof.

(k)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, from time to time if the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent reasonably determine in good faith that (i) a comparable successor rate to XXXXX (or a successor to such successor rate) becomes available and/or (ii) a forward-looking “term rate” based on XXXXX or such successor rate becomes available, then the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend this Agreement and the other Loan Documents without the consent of any Lender to (x) replace XXXXX or any successor rate with the applicable successor rate to it and/or (y) add any such forward-looking “term rate” as an interest rate option, in each case, pursuant to generally accepted then prevailing market convention as determined by the Parent Borrower in good faith and to make such other conforming changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in connection therewith, including any necessary spread adjustment that is generally accepted as the then prevailing market convention determined by the Parent Borrower in good faith. In addition, from time to time, if the Parent Borrower and the Required Lenders (or the Required Revolving Lenders of any Class of Loans denominated in Pound Sterling) determine that the circumstances described in clause (i) and/or (ii) above have occurred, then, the Parent Borrower and the Required Lenders (or Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable) may enter into amendment to this Agreement to implement the changes described in clause (x) and/or (y) above and to make such other conforming changes to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in connection therewith, in each case, so long as such rate is reasonably practicable for the Administrative Agent to administer.

235

(c)            Effectiveness of Facsimile Documents and Signatures. Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile or other electronic means (i.e., a “pdf” or “tiff”). The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Law, have the same force and effect as manually signed originals and shall be binding on each Loan Party, each Agent and each Lender. The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile or other electronic document or signature.

(d)            Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and any Issuing Lender hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including electronic mail and Internet or intranet websites); provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or an Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2 if such Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Section by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Parent Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that the approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes (with the Parent Borrower’s consent), (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of a written acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgment), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the posting thereof.

11.3          No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Loan Party, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

11.4          Survival of Representations and Warranties.

236

11.5          Payment of Expenses and Taxes. The Borrowers agree, jointly and severally, (a) to pay or reimburse the Agents for (1) all their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) the syndication of the Facilities and the development, preparation, execution and delivery of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, (ii) the consummation and administration of the transactions (including the syndication of the Initial Term Loans and the Initial Revolving Commitments) contemplated hereby and thereby and (iii) efforts in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents to monitor the Loans and verify, protect, evaluate, assess, appraise, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral, and (2) the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel (which shall exclude allocated costs of in-house counsel), solely in its capacity as counsel to the Administrative Agent, and such other special or local counsel, consultants, advisors, appraisers and auditors whose retention (other than during the continuance of an Event of Default) is approved by the Parent Borrower, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender, each Lead Arranger and the Agents for all their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, including the fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agents (limited to one firm of counsel for the Agents and, if necessary, one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, in each case for the Agents and which, in each case, shall exclude allocated costs of in-house counsel), (c) to pay, indemnify, or reimburse each Lender, each Lead Arranger and the Agents for, and hold each Lender and the Agents harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp and other similar taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify or reimburse each Lender, each Lead Arranger, each Agent and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) for, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against, any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (in the case of fees and disbursements of counsel, limited to one firm of counsel for all Indemnitees taken as a whole, and, if necessary, one firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, in each case for all Indemnitees (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs the Parent Borrower of such conflict and thereafter, after receipt of the Parent Borrower’s consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such affected Indemnitee which, in each case, shall exclude allocated costs of in-house counsel)) arising out of or relating to any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, brought by a third party or by any Borrower or any other Loan Party and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of the property of the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided that the Borrowers shall not have any obligation hereunder to the Administrative Agent, any other Agent, any Lead Arranger or any Lender (or any Related Party of any Agent, Lead Arranger or Lender) with respect to Indemnified Liabilities arising from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision) of such Agent, Lead Arranger or Lender (or any Related Party thereof), (ii) a material breach of any Loan Document (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision) by such Agent, Lead Arranger or Lender (or any Related Party thereof), (iii) claims of any Indemnitee (or any Related Party thereof) solely against one or more Indemnitees (or any Related Party thereof) or disputes between or among Indemnitees (or any Related Party thereof) in each case except to the extent such claim is determined to have been caused by an act or omission by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (provided that this clause (iii) shall not apply to indemnification of an Agent or Lead Arranger for a claim against it in its capacity as such), (iv) claims made or legal proceedings commenced against such Agent, Lead Arranger or Lender (or any Related Party thereof) by any security holder or creditor thereof arising out of and based upon rights afforded any such security holder or creditor solely in its capacity as such, (v) Indemnified Liabilities arising in such Indemnitee’s capacity as a financial advisor of the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries in connection with the Transactions, (vi) Indemnified Liabilities in such Indemnitee’s capacity as a co-investor in any potential acquisition of the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries or (vi) for any settlement effected without the Parent Borrower’s prior written consent, but if settled with Parent Borrower’s prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, conditioned or denied) or if there is a final non-appealable judgment against an Indemnitee in any such proceeding, the Parent Borrower will indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with this section. Neither any Borrower nor any Indemnitee shall be liable for any consequential or punitive damages in connection with the Facilities; provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Borrowers’ indemnification obligations above to the extent such special, indirect, consequential and punitive damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which any Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder. All amounts due under this Section 11.5 shall be payable not later than 30 days after written demand therefor. Statements reflecting amounts payable by the Loan Parties pursuant to this Section 11.5 shall be submitted to the address of the Parent Borrower set forth in Section 11.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Parent Borrower in a notice to the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall have no obligation under this Section 11.5 to any Indemnitee with respect to any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority. The agreements in this Section 11.5 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. As used herein, “Related Party” means, with respect to any Person, or any of its affiliates, or any of the officers, directors, trustees, employees, shareholders, members, attorneys and other advisors, agents and controlling persons of any thereof, any of such Person, its affiliates and the officers, directors, trustees, employees, shareholders, members, attorneys and other advisors, agents and controlling persons of any thereof (other than, in each case, Holdings and its Subsidiaries and any of its controlling shareholders).

(A)           the Parent Borrower, provided that no consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required (x) for an assignment of Term Loans to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below), (y) if an Event of Default under Section 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) with respect to the Parent Borrower has occurred and is continuing or (z) for an assignment of Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments to an Affiliate of such assigning Revolving Lender or another Revolving Lender; provided, further, that if any Lender assigns all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one of its affiliates in connection with or in contemplation of the sale or other disposition of its interest in such affiliate, the Parent Borrower’s prior written consent shall be required for such assignment;

(B)            the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to a Lender or an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund (as defined below);

(C)            in the case of assignments of Revolving L/C Participations, each Revolving Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and

239

(B)            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; provided that (x) for concurrent assignments to two or more Approved Funds such assignment fee shall only be required to be paid once in respect of and at the time of such assignments and (y) such assignment fee shall not be required to be paid in respect of assignments by any Arranger, Joint Bookrunner or Senior Co-Manager in connection with the syndication of the Term Loan Facilities;

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

(D)            in the case of assignments of Revolving L/C Participations, the assignee shall have delivered to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent the documents required pursuant to Section 4.11(b), (c), (d) or (e); and

(E)            Initial Term B Loans and Initial Term C Loans shall not be permitted to be assigned separately and Lenders shall be required to assign the same proportion of Initial Term B Loans and Initial Term C Loans (with the minimum amount specified in clause (A) above being calculated based on the aggregate amount of Initial Term B Loans and Initial Term C Loans so assigned).

For the purposes of this Section 11.6, the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning: “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to make assignments under this Agreement to any Disqualified Lender (so long as the Parent Borrower has made the list of Disqualified Lenders available to the Administrative Agent, who may make it available to all Lenders).

(iii)          Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, 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 Lender 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 (and bound by any related obligations under) Sections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13 and 11.5, and bound by its continuing obligations under Section 11.16). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with Sections 2.10(e), 2.12, 4.13(d), 4.14(c), 11.1(g), 11.1(h) or this Section 11.6 shall, to the extent it would comply with Section 11.6(c) be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 11.6.

240

(iv)          The Borrowers hereby designate the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent agrees, to serve as the Borrowers’ agent, solely for purposes of this Section 11.6, to maintain at one of its offices in New York, New York 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 interest and principal amount of the Loans and L/C Obligations 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 Borrowers, 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 Borrowers, the Issuing Lenders and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No assignment shall be effective unless recorded in the Register. The parties hereto agree and intend that the Obligations shall be treated as being in “registered form” for the purposes of the Code (including Sections 163(f), 165(j), 871(h)(2), 881(c)(2) and 4701 of the Code), and the Register shall be maintained in accordance with such intention.

(v)           Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender (unless such assignment is made in accordance with Sections 2.10(e), 4.13(d), 4.14(c), 11.1(g) or 11.1(h), in which case the effectiveness of such Assignment and Acceptance shall not require execution by the assigning Lender) and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 11.6 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 11.6, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance, record the information contained therein in the Register and give prompt notice of such assignment and recordation to the Parent Borrower. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

241

(vi)          On or prior to the effective date of any assignment pursuant to this Section 11.6(b), the assigning Lender shall surrender any outstanding Notes held by it all or a portion of which are being assigned. Any Notes surrendered by the assigning Lender shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Parent Borrower marked “cancelled”.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Assignee, which as of the date of any assignment to it pursuant to this Section 11.6(b) would be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.10, 4.11 or 11.5 than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive as of such date under such sections with respect to the rights assigned, shall be entitled to receive such greater payments unless the assignment was made after an Event of Default under Section 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) with respect to the Parent Borrower has occurred and is continuing or the Parent Borrower has expressly consented in writing to waive the benefit of this provision at the time of such assignment.

(c)            Any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may, in the ordinary course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations (other than to any Disqualified Lender (so long as the Parent Borrower has made the list of Disqualified Lenders available to the Administrative Agent, who may make it available to all Lenders) or a 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 Initial Term Loan Commitments, Incremental Commitments, Extended Revolving Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (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 Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender 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 pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that, to the extent of such participation such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of Section 11.1(a) and (2) directly and adversely affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (d) of this Section 11.6, the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of (and shall have the related obligations under) Sections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13 and 11.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 11.6 (it being understood that any such Participant shall be subject to the requirements under Section 4.11(b), (c), (d) and (e), and shall deliver such documentation described therein to the participating Lender). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.7(b) as though it were a Lender provided that such Participant shall be subject to Section 11.7(a) as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to sell participations under this Agreement to any Disqualified Lender (so long as the Parent Borrower has made the list of Disqualified Lenders available to the Administrative Agent, who may make it available to all Lenders). Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, 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 Facilities or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of a Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Facility or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary (x) to establish that such Facility or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or (y) for any Borrower to enforce its rights hereunder. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. No sale of a participation shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Participant Register as provided in this paragraph.

242

(d)           No Loan Party shall be obligated to make any greater payment under Section 4.10, 4.11 or 11.5 than it would have been obligated to make in the absence of any participation, unless the sale of such participation is made with the prior written consent of the Parent Borrower and the Parent Borrower expressly waives the benefit of this provision at the time of such participation. Any Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.11 unless such Participant complies with Section 4.11(b), (c), (d) and (e), as applicable, and provides the forms and certificates referenced therein to the Lender that granted such participation.

(e)            Any Lender, without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 11.6 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 (by foreclosure or otherwise) any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f)            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 Parent Borrower if it would require any Borrower to make any filing with any Governmental Authority or qualify any Loan or Note under the laws of any jurisdiction, and the Parent 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.

(g)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in Section 11.6(b). Each Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a Conduit Lender any domestic or foreign bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state, federal or provincial bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance. Each such indemnifying Lender shall pay in full any claim received from any Borrower pursuant to this Section 11.6(g) within 30 Business Days of receipt of a certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower specifying in reasonable detail the cause and amount of the loss, cost, damage or expense in respect of which the claim is being asserted, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Without limiting the indemnification obligations of any indemnifying Lender pursuant to this Section 11.6(g), in the event that the indemnifying Lender fails timely to compensate each such Borrower for such claim, any Loans held by the relevant Conduit Lender shall, if requested by the Parent Borrower, be assigned promptly to the Lender that administers the Conduit Lender and the designation of such Conduit Lender shall be void.

243

(h)           If the Parent Borrower wishes to replace the Loans or Commitments under any Facility or Tranche in whole or in part with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days’ (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) advance notice to the Lenders under such Facility or Tranche, instead of prepaying the Loans or reducing or terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require the Lenders under such Facility or Tranche to assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in accordance with Section 11.1. Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans and Commitments to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders under such Facility or Tranche in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid or such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrowers), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to Section 4.12. By receiving such purchase price, the Lenders under such Facility or Tranche shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Loans or Commitments under such Facility or Tranche pursuant to the terms of the form of Assignment and Acceptance attached hereto as Exhibit F, and accordingly no other action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this paragraph are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.

(i)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (x) any Term Loan Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Term Loans or Term Loan Commitments to any Parent, any Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower or an Affiliated Lender and (y) any Parent, any Borrower and any Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower may, from time to time, purchase or prepay Term Loans, in each case, on a non-pro rata basis through (1) Dutch auction procedures open to all applicable Term Loan Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with customary procedures to be agreed between the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or other applicable agent managing such auction); provided that (A) any such Dutch auction by the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries shall be made in accordance with Section 4.4(f) and (B) any such Dutch auction by any Parent shall be made on terms substantially similar to Section 4.4(f) or on other terms to be agreed between such Parent and the Administrative Agent (or other applicable agent managing such auction) or (2) open market purchases; provided further that:

(i)            (x) any such Term Loans acquired by Holdings, any Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary shall be retired or cancelled promptly upon the acquisition thereof and (y) in the case of an assignment to Holdings, any Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary, no Event of Default under Section 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing (or would result therefrom);

244

(ii)           No assignment of Term Loans to Holdings, the Parent Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary may be purchased with the proceeds of any Revolving Loans;

(iii)          in connection with an assignment pursuant to this Section 11.6(i), no Affiliated Lender purchasing any Lender’s Term Loans shall be required to make a representation that it is not in possession of MNPI with respect to the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries or their respective securities, and all parties to such transaction shall (i) waive any potential claims arising from the Parent Borrower or the applicable Affiliated Lender being in possession of undisclosed information that may be material to a Lender’s decision to participate in such transaction and (ii) render customary “big boy” letters to each other (or to the auction agent, if applicable);

(iv)          no Affiliated Lender shall have any right to (x) attend or participate in (including, in each case, by telephone) any meeting (including “Lender only” meetings) or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Parent Borrower are not then present or invited thereto, (y) receive any information or material prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among the Administrative Agent and one or more Lenders or any other material which is “Lender only”, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to the Parent Borrower or its representatives (and in any case, other than the right to receive notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Section 2) or receive any advice of counsel to the Administrative Agent or (z) make any challenge to the Administrative Agent’s or any other Lender’s attorney-client privilege on the basis of its status as a Lender;

(v)           in the event that any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code shall be instituted by or against the Parent Borrower or any Guarantor, each Affiliated Lender shall acknowledge and agree that they are each “insiders” under Section 101(31) of the Bankruptcy Code and, as such, the claims associated with the loans and commitments owned by it shall be not be included in determining whether the applicable class of creditors holding such claims has voted to accept a proposed plan for purposes of section 1129(a)(10) of the Bankruptcy Code, or, alternatively, to the extent that the foregoing designation is deemed unenforceable for any reason, each Affiliated Lender shall vote in such proceedings in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by those Lenders who are not Affiliated Lenders, except, in each case, to the extent that any plan of reorganization proposes to treat the Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a manner that is less favorable to such Affiliated Lender than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders; provided, further, that an Affiliated Debt Fund will not be subject to the foregoing insolvency proceeding voting limitations;

245

(vi)          except with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action (a) that pursuant to Section 11.1 requires the consent of all Lenders, all Lenders directly and adversely affected or specifically such Lender, (b) that alters the applicable Affiliated Lender’s pro rata share of any payments given to all Lenders, or (c) affects the applicable Affiliated Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) in a manner that is disproportionate to the effect on any Lender in the same Class, the Loans held by the applicable Affiliated Lender (other than an Affiliated Debt Fund) shall be disregarded in both the numerator and denominator in the calculation of any Lender vote (and shall be deemed to have been voted in the same percentage as all other applicable Lenders voted if necessary to give legal effect to this paragraph) (but, in any event, in connection with any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action, shall be entitled to any consent fee, calculated as if all of the applicable Affiliated Lender’s Term Loans had voted in favor of any matter for which a consent fee or similar payment is offered);

(vii)         no such acquisition by an Affiliated Lender (other than an Affiliated Debt Fund) shall be permitted if, after giving effect to such acquisition, the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans held by Affiliated Lenders (other than Affiliated Debt Funds) would exceed 25% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding after giving effect to such purchase; provided that to the extent any assignment to an Affiliated Lender would result in the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Loans held by Affiliated Lenders (other than Affiliated Debt Funds) exceeding such 25% threshold at the time of such purchase, the purchase of such excess amount will be void ab initio;

(viii)        in connection with any purchases by Affiliated Lenders such Affiliated Lender shall clearly identify itself as an Affiliated Lender in any Assignment and Acceptance executed in connection with such purchases or sales but no requirement to make representation as to the absence of any material nonpublic information; and

(ix)           Affiliated Debt Funds may not in the aggregate account for more than 49.9% of the amounts set forth in the calculation of Required Lenders.

(j)             Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.6, nothing in this Section 11.6 is intended to or should be construed to limit the Borrowers’ right to prepay the Loans as provided hereunder, including under Section 4.4.

(k)            The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (each in its capacity as such) shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders or Net Short Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (each in its capacity as such) shall not ‎(x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified ‎ Lender or Net Short Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender or Net Short Lender.

246

11.7          Adjustments; Set-off; Calculations; Computations.

(a)            If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans or the Reimbursement Amounts owing to it, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 9.1(f), or otherwise (except pursuant to Section 2.9, 2.10, 2.11, 2.12, 3.1(b), 4.4, 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13(d), 4.14, 11.1(g), 11.1(h) or 11.6)), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans or the Reimbursement Amounts, as the case may be, owing to it, or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders an interest (by participation, assignment or otherwise) in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loans or the Reimbursement Amounts, as the case may be, owing to it, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(b)            In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Parent Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Parent Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default to set-off as appropriate and apply against any amount then due and payable by any Borrower any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) other than escrow, payroll, xxxxx cash, trust and tax withholding accounts, in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of such Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

11.8          Judgment. (a)  If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Loan Party in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 11.8 referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due under any Loan Document in any currency (the “Obligation Currency”) other than the Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date, or the date on which the judgment is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the applicable date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 11.8 being hereinafter in this Section 11.8 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

247

(b)            If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section 11.8(a), there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual receipt for value of the amount due, the applicable Loan Party shall pay such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount actually received in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of the Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date. Any amount due from any Loan Party under this Section 11.8(b) shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents.

(c)            The term “rate of exchange” in this Section 11.8 means the rate of exchange at which the Administrative Agent, on the relevant date at or about 12:00 noon (New York time), would be prepared to sell, in accordance with its normal course foreign currency exchange practices, the Obligation Currency against the Judgment Currency.

11.9          Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute one agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or electronic transmission (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. The words “execution”, “execute”, “signed”, “signature”, and words of like import in or related to this Agreement or any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by us, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

11.10        Severability.

11.21        Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a)            In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

253

(b)            As used in this Section 11.21, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(i)             a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);

(iii)           a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).
