NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

SECTION ONE — Commitment Reallocation; Eurocurrency Loans; Credit Agreement Amendments.

“Continuing Lender” means (i) each Consenting Lender which appears in Schedule A as having a Commitment immediately after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section One, (ii) each Additional Lender and (iii) each Issuing Lender after giving effect to this Fourth Amendment.

“Exiting Lender” means each Consenting Lender which does not appear in Schedule A as having a Commitment immediately after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section One.

“Post-Fourth Amendment Commitment” means (i) in the case of an Exiting Lender, zero and (ii) in the case of any Continuing Lender, the Commitment of such Lender in effect immediately after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date.

“Pre-Fourth Amendment Commitment” means (i) in the case of a Consenting Lender, the Commitment of such Consenting Lender in effect immediately prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Date and (ii) in the case of an Additional Lender, zero.

(B) Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section Two hereof:

(1) Effective as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, each Commitment Decrease Lender shall automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Commitment Increase Lender a portion of, and each such Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed a portion of, such Commitment Decrease Lender’s participations under the Credit Agreement in outstanding Letters of Credit such that on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of such participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding participations in Letters of Credit issued under the Credit Agreement held by each Continuing Lender will equal an amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to (a) such Continuing Lender’s Post-Fourth Amendment Commitment divided by (b) the aggregate Post-Fourth Amendment Commitments of all Continuing Lenders.

(2) Effective as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, each Commitment Decrease Lender shall sell and assign to each Commitment Increase Lender without recourse to such Commitment Decrease Lender, pursuant to subsection 11.6 of the Credit Agreement, a portion of, and each such Commitment Increase Lender shall purchase and assume a portion of, such Commitment Decrease Lender’s Commitments (such amounts to be sold and assigned by a Commitment Decrease Lender and to be purchased and assumed by a Commitment Increase Lender as set out in Schedule B hereto) and outstanding Loans under the Credit Agreement together with all obligations and rights relating to the Commitments and the Loans so sold and assigned, such that on the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to each such sale, assignment and purchase and assumption, the percentage of the aggregate Commitments and outstanding Loans under the Credit Agreement held by each Continuing Lender will equal

an amount (expressed as a percentage) equal to (a) such Continuing Lender’s Post-Fourth Amendment Commitment divided by (b) the aggregate Post-Fourth Amendment Commitments of all Continuing Lenders. The Commitments and Loans to be sold and assigned by each Commitment Decrease Lender and to be purchased and assumed by each Commitment Increase Lender shall in each case be as set out in Schedule B hereto. Each Commitment Increase Lender shall pay an amount equal to the principal amount of outstanding Loans so sold and assigned to it, which shall be paid to the Commitment Decrease Lenders to purchase the outstanding Loans sold and assigned by such Commitment Decrease Lenders.

(3) Each of the parties hereto hereby (a) consents to (i) the reallocations, sales, assignments, purchases and assumptions provided for in Section One (B)(1) and (2) above and, notwithstanding anything in the Credit Agreement to the contrary, the manner in which such reallocations, sales, assignments, purchases and assumptions are effected and hereby agrees that this Fourth Amendment shall constitute an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to each assignment and assumption in order to effect the sales, assignments, purchases and assumptions of Commitments in the manner set forth in Schedule B hereto and (ii) any reduction of Commitments provided for in Section One (B)(1) or (2) above and, notwithstanding anything in the Credit Agreement to the contrary, the manner in which such reductions are effected, and (b) waives any other notice or other requirement with respect thereto.

(4) On the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, immediately after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by this Section One, the Commitments of the Lenders shall be as set forth on Schedule A hereto.

(C) Each Consenting Lender hereby waives any right to receive any payments under subsection 4.12 of the Credit Agreement as a result of (a) the entry into the Fourth Amendment, (b) any of the transactions contemplated by or related to the Fourth Amendment or (c) any actions required to give effect to such transactions, including the reallocations, sales, assignments, purchases and assumptions and amendments contemplated by this Section One.

(D) The Parent Borrower hereby agrees that it shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, immediately prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, accrued and unpaid interest up to (but excluding) the Fourth Amendment Effective Date on the amount of Loans outstanding as at such date. Notwithstanding anything in the Credit Agreement or herein to the contrary, the parties hereto hereby agree that the current Interest Period for each outstanding Eurocurrency Loan shall continue notwithstanding the occurrence of Fourth Amendment Effective Date (and the reallocations, sales, assignments, purchases and assumptions and amendments contemplated by this Section One) and interest shall accrue from the Fourth Amendment Effective Date for the remainder of the current Interest Period (at the rate applicable to such Interest Period) to the Continuing Lenders on the amount of Eurocurrency Loans outstanding as at the Fourth Amendment Effective Date.

(E) The Parent Borrower hereby agrees that it shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, immediately prior to the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, accrued

and unpaid commitment fees and L/C Fees up to (but excluding) the Fourth Amendment Effective Date. Notwithstanding anything in the Credit Agreement or herein to the contrary the parties hereto hereby agree that the next scheduled date due for the payment of commitment fees and L/C Fees will be the last Business Day of December 2019 (with such fees accruing on the Unutilized Commitments and Letters of Credit from (and including) the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to the reallocations, sales, assignments, purchases and assumptions effected pursuant to Section One (B) above).

(F) Effective as of the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto, such that all of the newly inserted double-underlined provisions therein (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: double-underlined text) shall be deemed to be inserted and all of the stricken text therein (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: ~~stricken text~~) shall be deemed to be deleted therefrom.

SECTION THREE - Representations and Warranties.

As of the date hereof, the Parent Borrower represents and warrants as follows:

(1) Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law. Each of the Loan Parties (a) is duly organized, validly existing and 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 in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (b) has 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 corporation or limited liability company and 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 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.

(2) Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each of the Loan Parties has the corporate or other organizational power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform, in the case of Holdings and the Parent Borrower, this Fourth Amendment and, in the case of each Guarantor, the Acknowledgment and each such Loan Party has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance thereof. 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 this Fourth Amendment or the Acknowledgment, except for consents, authorizations, notices and filings which the failure to obtain or make would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. This Fourth Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by the Parent Borrower and the Acknowledgment has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Guarantor. This Fourth Amendment constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Parent Borrower and the Acknowledgment and each other Loan Document to which any Loan Party is a party which has been executed and delivered constitutes 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).

(3) No Legal Bar.

The parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement, the Parent Borrower will (A) enter into the First Lien Credit Agreement to borrow First Lien Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $656.5 million (unless reduced in accordance with subsection 6.1(b)), (B) borrow Second Lien Term Loans, under the Second Lien Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount of up to $154.5 million (unless reduced in accordance with subsection 6.1(b)) and (C) obtain Commitments under this Agreement in an aggregate principal amount of up to $175.0 million;

WHEREAS, the cash proceeds of the Equity Contribution, the First Lien Term Loans, the Second Lien Term Loans and any Loans made on the Closing Date hereunder will be used on the Closing Date, inter alia, to consummate the Transactions, and to pay fees, premiums and expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions; and

WHEREAS, the Parent Borrower has requested the Lenders (A) to extend credit in the form of Revolving Credit Loans at any time and from time to time prior to the Termination Date, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not in excess of $175.0 million and (B) to participate in the Swingline Loans provided for herein and (C) issue and participate in the Letters of Credit provided for herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual agreements contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1. DEFINITIONS.

1.1 Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:

“30-Day Projected Specified Excess Availability”: as of the date of any Specified Transaction, the sum of (x) the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the sum of each day’s projected Excess Availability during the 30 consecutive day period immediately following such Specified Transaction plus the sum of each day’s projected Specified Suppressed Availability during such 30 consecutive day period (in each case as reasonably determined by the Parent Borrower in

good faith and calculated on a pro forma basis for each day during such 30-day period to include the borrowing or repayment of any Loans or issuance or cancellation of any Letters of Credit in connection with such Specified Transaction) by (b) 30 days plus (y) Specified Unrestricted Cash as of such date (but excluding therefrom the cash proceeds of any Specified Equity Contribution).

“ABL Loan Documents” or “Loan Documents”: this Agreement, any Revolving Credit Notes, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, each Other Intercreditor Agreement (on and after the execution thereof) and any other Security Documents, each as amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified, extended, renewed, refinanced or replaced from time to time.

“ABL Priority Collateral”: as defined in the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement whether or not the same remains in full force and effect.

“ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement”: the intercreditor agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between the Collateral Agent, the First Lien Collateral Agent (in its capacity as collateral agent under the First Lien Loan Documents) and the Second Lien Collateral Agent (in its capacity as collateral agent under the Second Lien Loan Documents), and acknowledged by certain of the Loan Parties in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C, as the same may be amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof.

“ABR”: for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1% and (c) the Adjusted LIBOR Rate (determined at or about 11:00 A.M. (London time) on such day) for an Interest Period of one-month beginning on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, on the immediately preceding Business Day) plus 1.00%. “Prime Rate” shall mean the rate of interest per annum determined from time to time by Royal Bank of Canada to be its prime rate in effect at its principal office in New York City and notified to the Parent Borrower (the Prime Rate not being intended to be the lowest rate of interest charged by Royal Bank of Canada in connection with extensions of credit to debtors). “Federal Funds Effective Rate” shall mean, for any day, the weighted average of the rates on overnight federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System arranged by federal funds brokers, as published on the next succeeding Business Day by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or, if such rate is not so published for any day which is a Business Day, the average of the quotations for the day of such transactions received by the Administrative Agent from three federal funds brokers of recognized standing selected by it. If the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that it is unable to ascertain the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBOR Rate for any reason, including the inability or failure of the Administrative Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the terms of the definition thereof, the ABR shall be determined without regard to clause (b) or (c) above, as the case may be, and the ABR shall be determined by reference to clause (a) of this definition until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. Any change in the ABR due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBOR Rate shall be effective as of the opening of business on the effective day of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBOR Rate, respectively.

“ABR Loans”: Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the ABR.

“Acquisition Agreement Material Adverse Effect”: any event, change, circumstance, development, fact or event that has, or would reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse effect upon the financial condition, business or results of operations of the Company Group, taken as a whole; provided, however, that none of the following shall be taken into account, either alone or in combination, in determining whether an Acquisition Agreement Material Adverse Effect has occurred or would reasonably be expected to occur: (i) conditions generally affecting the United States economy, the regulatory environment or credit, securities, currency, financial, banking or capital markets (including any disruption thereof and any decline in the price of any security or any market index or any changes in interest rates or exchange rates) in the United States or elsewhere in the world, (ii) any national, international or supranational political or geopolitical conditions, including the engagement in or escalation of hostilities or war, whether or not pursuant to the declaration of a national emergency or war, or the occurrence of any military or terrorist attack, or any epidemics, pandemics, outbreaks, earthquakes, hurricanes, tornadoes or any other natural disasters (whether or not caused by any Person or any force majeure event) or any other national or international calamity or crisis, (iii)

changes in GAAP, accounting standards or in the interpretation or enforcement thereof, (iv) changes in any Legal Requirement, (v) any adverse change in the credit ratings of any member of the Company Group (it being understood that the facts and circumstances giving rise to such change may be taken into account to determine whether there has been an Acquisition Agreement Material Adverse Effect), (vi) any change that is generally applicable to the industries or markets in which any member of the Company Group operates, (vii) the execution or announcement of the Acquisition Agreement or the transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement, in each case to the extent directly attributable to the execution or announcement of the Acquisition Agreement or the transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement (including by reason of the identity of Buyer or by Buyer’s or any of its Affiliates’ announcement regarding their respective plans or intentions with respect to the conduct of the Business and, including the impact thereof on relationships, contractual or otherwise, with customers, suppliers, distributors, employees or others having business relationships with any member of the Company Group), (viii) any failure in and of itself by any member of the Company Group to meet any internal or published projections, forecasts, estimates or predictions of revenue, earnings, cash flow or cash position and any seasonal changes in the results of operations of any member of the Company Group for any period ending on or after the date of the Acquisition Agreement (it being understood that the facts and circumstances giving rise to such failure may be taken into account to determine whether there has been an Acquisition Agreement Material Adverse Effect), (ix) the taking of any action required by the Acquisition Agreement and/or the Transaction Documents by any member of the Company Group, or any failure to take any action by any member of the Company Group due to Buyer’s failure to consent to the Sellers’ request to take such action pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Acquisition Agreement; except in the case of clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) above, if such conditions, events, changes, crisis and disasters, as applicable, have a materially disproportionate impact on the Company Group, taken as a whole, as compared to other Persons engaged in the same industry.

Such exposure shall be the sum of the positive aggregate MTM values to each Hedging Party of all Designated Hedging Agreements with such Hedging Party outstanding at the time of the relevant calculation. The aggregate MTM value to a Hedging Party of all Designated Hedging Agreements with such Hedging Party shall be calculated by such Hedging Party (i) on a net basis by taking into account the netting provision contained in the ISDA Master Agreement (or other similar agreement with netting provisions substantially similar to an ISDA Master Agreement) with such Hedging Party and (ii) if applicable, by taking into account any master netting agreement or arrangement in place among such Hedging Party, any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof that is also party to a Designated Hedging Agreement and the relevant Loan Party, in which case the positive aggregate MTM value of all relevant Designated Hedging Agreements to such Hedging Party and such Subsidiaries or Affiliates who are parties to such master netting agreements shall be calculated in respect of all of the relevant Designated Hedging Agreements on a net basis across all such Designated Hedging Agreements; provided that the Parent Borrower (i) certifies to the Administrative Agent that such master netting agreement shall apply to all such Designated Hedging Agreements in all cases including upon the occurrence of an event of default by the relevant Loan Party in respect of any such Designated Hedging Agreement and (ii) upon request, provides to the Administrative Agent a copy of the master netting agreement. The Hedging Party, in calculating the positive aggregate MTM value to such Hedging Party, shall take into account the value of collateral posted to such Hedging Party in respect of such Designated Hedging Agreements, such that the value of such collateral shall reduce the MTM value of such Designated Hedging Agreements that is out-of-the-money to the relevant Loan Party by an amount equal to (x) the amount of cash collateral or (y) the value of non-cash collateral with such value as determined by the relevant Hedging Party or the relevant valuation agent in accordance with the relevant credit support annex or other collateral agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account any haircut provision applicable to such non-cash collateral); provided that the Parent Borrower shall provide any supporting documentation for such value as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, if the MTM value of all Designated Hedging Agreements with a Hedging Party is a negative amount to such Hedging Party (i.e., if all such Designated Hedging Agreements with such Hedging Party are in-the-money to the relevant Loan Party on a net basis), such MTM value shall be treated as zero in calculating the amount of the Designated Hedging

Reserves. The MTM value of a Designated Hedging Agreement for this purpose shall be calculated and provided to the Administrative Agent, the relevant Loan Party and the Parent Borrower together with the supporting calculations therefor (i) on or prior to the date on which the applicable Hedging Agreement is designated as a Designated Hedging Agreement and (ii) thereafter promptly (but in any case not later than three (3) Business Days) following (x) the last calendar day of each calendar month and (y) such other date on which a request was made by the Administrative Agent, the relevant Loan Party or the Parent Borrower, as applicable, for such MTM value. Upon receipt of such MTM value of a Designated Hedging Agreement from the relevant Hedging Party, the Parent Borrower may, within three (3) Business Days of such receipt, notify the Administrative Agent that the Parent Borrower does not agree with such MTM value provided by such Hedging Party and seek a Dealer Polling (as defined below) with respect to the relevant Designated Hedging Agreement as set forth below. In the event the Parent Borrower does not provide such notice to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall use such MTM value in calculating the relevant portion of the Designated Hedging Reserves. Prior to any Hedging Party providing the MTM value of a Hedging Agreement, the applicable Hedging Agreement will not be designated as a Designated Hedging Agreement for the purposes of this Agreement, until such time as an MTM value is provided by such Hedging Party or an alternative value is provided by the Parent Borrower pursuant to a Dealer Polling. The Parent Borrower may commence a Dealer Polling (i) at any time if a Hedging Party fails to provide an MTM value or (ii) within three (3) Business Days of the receipt by the Administrative Agent of an MTM value provided by a Hedging Party. In the case of the immediately preceding sub-clause (ii), until Dealer Polling results in an alternative MTM value, the MTM value provided by the Hedging Party shall be used for purposes of calculating the Designated Hedging Reserves. If a Hedging Party provides an MTM value in respect of the relevant Designated Hedging Agreement subsequent to the determination of an MTM value in accordance with a Dealer Polling, such MTM value so provided by the Hedging Party shall be used in calculating the relevant portion of the Designated Hedging Reserves; provided that the Parent Borrower may disagree with such new MTM value and commence a new Dealer Polling in accordance with these provisions. A “Dealer Polling” for purposes hereof is a procedure by which the Parent Borrower seeks mid-market quotations (which may be firm or indicative) from at least two (and not more than three) recognized dealers in Hedging Agreements of the same or similar type of the MTM value of a Designated Hedging Agreement. In seeking such quotations, the Parent Borrower shall (x) instruct each such dealer to calculate its mid-market valuation in a manner consistent with the manner in which such dealer would calculate such valuation for products of its own that are of the same or substantially similar type as the relevant Designated Hedging Agreement and (y) provide each such dealer with the transaction details and other information necessary for such dealer to provide such mid-market quotation. The Parent Borrower shall provide a copy of all written communications with each such dealer and all information provided pursuant to clause (y) of the preceding sentence to the dealers participating in the Dealer Polling to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Hedging Party. Upon notification and delivery by the Parent Borrower to the Administrative Agent of (A) the details and results of any such mid-market quotations from such other dealers attributable to the Designated Hedging Agreement for which such additional dealer mid-market quotations have been obtained, and (B) a certificate showing the amount determined by calculating either (i) the arithmetic average of the valuation provided by the relevant Hedging Party and the valuations provided by each of such other dealers in the event the Parent Borrower did not agree with the valuation provided by such

Hedging Party or (ii) the arithmetic average of the valuations provided by each of such other dealers in the event the relevant Hedging Party has not provided its valuation (in either case, including reasonable details of such calculation), the Administrative Agent shall adjust the Designated Hedging Reserves attributable to the Designated Hedging Agreement for which such additional dealer mid-market quotations have been obtained to equal the amount provided by the Parent Borrower in preceding clause (B). In the event that (x) the Parent Borrower commenced the Dealer Polling but no third party dealer has provided any quotation within seven (7) Business Days from the date on which the Parent Borrower notified the Administrative Agent of the commencement of the Dealer Polling, or (y) the Parent Borrower has failed to commence the Dealer Polling in a situation described above, then the MTM value of the relevant Designated Hedging Agreement for purposes of the determination of the relevant portion of the Designated Hedging Reserves shall be determined by the Administrative Agent based on the previous MTM value provided by the relevant Hedging Party.

“Designated Noncash Consideration”: the Fair Market Value of non-cash consideration received by the Parent Borrower or one of its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with an Asset Disposition that is so designated as Designated Noncash Consideration pursuant to a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer and delivered to the Administrative Agent, setting forth the basis of such valuation.

(i) In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Acquisition, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement (other than Section 6.2 hereof) which requires that no Default, Event of Default, Specified Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, or any representations and warranties in the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects, such condition shall, at the option of the Parent Borrower, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default, Event of Default or, Specified Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, exists and so long as such representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects on the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Parent Borrower has exercised its option under the first sentence of this clause (i), and any Default or, Event of Default or Specified Default occurs following the date the definitive agreements for the applicable Limited Condition Acquisition were entered into and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such Default or, Event of Default or Specified Default 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 Acquisition is permitted hereunder.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Parent Borrower has made an LCA Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCA Test Date in connection with any action taken with respect to such Limited Condition Acquisition are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets of the Parent Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Acquisition, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios 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 Acquisition, 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 Acquisition is consummated or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.

SECTION 2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS.

2.1 Commitments.

(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees to make, at any time and from time to time on or after the Closing Date and prior to the Termination Date, a Revolving Credit Loan or Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrowers (on a joint and several basis as between the Borrowers), which Revolving Credit Loans:

(i) shall be denominated in Dollars;

(ii) shall, at the option of the Borrowers, be incurred and maintained as, and/or converted into, ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, provided that except as otherwise specifically provided in subsections 4.9 and 4.10, all Revolving Credit Loans comprising the same Borrowing shall at all times be of the same Type;

(iii) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof;

(iv) shall not be made (and shall not be required to be made) by any Lender to the extent the incurrence thereof (after giving effect to the use of the proceeds thereof on the date of the incurrence thereof to repay any amounts theretofore outstanding pursuant to this Agreement) would cause the Individual Lender Exposure of such Lender to exceed the amount of its Commitment at such time; and

(v) shall not be made (and shall not be required to be made) by any Lender to the extent the incurrence thereof (after giving effect to the use of the proceeds thereof on the date of the incurrence thereof to repay any amounts theretofore outstanding pursuant to this Agreement) would cause the Aggregate Lender Exposure to exceed the lesser of (A) the total Commitments as then in effect and (B) the Borrowing Base at such time (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered).

(b) (I) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in subsection 2.1(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to establish Availability Reserves (other than any Designated Hedging Reserves or Cash Management Reserves, which are provided for pursuant to clause (II) below) in such amounts, and with respect to such matters, as the Administrative Agent in its Permitted Discretion shall deem necessary or appropriate, against the Borrowing Base including reserves with respect to (i) sums that the Borrowers are or will be required to pay (such as taxes (including payroll and sales taxes), assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased assets, rents or other amounts payable under such leases) and have not yet paid and (ii) amounts owing by the Borrowers or, without duplication, their respective Restricted Subsidiaries to any Person to the extent secured by a Lien on, or trust over, any of the ABL Priority Collateral, which Lien or trust, in the Permitted Discretion of the Administrative Agent is capable of ranking senior in priority to or pari passu with one or more of the Liens in the ABL Priority Collateral granted in the Security Documents (such as Liens or trusts in favor of landlords, warehousemen, carriers, mechanics, materialmen, laborers, or suppliers, or Liens or trusts for surety bonds and ad valorem, excise, sales, or other taxes where given priority under applicable law) in and to such item of the ABL Priority Collateral; provided that with respect to any Availability Reserve (other than any Designated Hedging Reserves or Cash Management Reserves, which are provided for pursuant to clause (II) below), the Administrative Agent shall have provided the applicable Borrower

reasonable advance notice of any such establishment. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may only establish an Availability Reserve or change the eligibility requirements of the definitions of “Eligible Accounts”, “Eligible Extended Accounts” or “Eligible Inventory” after the date hereof based on an event, condition or other circumstance arising after the ~~Closing Date~~Fourth Amendment Effective Date (except in the case of the definition of “Eligible In-Transit Inventory” or in the case of the definition of “Eligible Credit Card Receivables”) or based on facts not known to the Administrative Agent as of the ~~Closing Date (~~Fourth Amendment Effective Date (except in the case of “Eligible In-Transit Inventory” or in the case of “Eligible Credit Card Receivables”) (including facts not known to the Administrative Agent as of the ~~Closing~~Fourth Amendment Effective Date as a result of completion ~~of the initial~~a field examination and inventory appraisal after the ~~Closing~~Fourth Amendment Effective Date) and having given no less than 10 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Parent Borrower. The amount of any such Availability Reserve or any such change to the eligibility requirements of the definitions of “Eligible Accounts”, “Eligible Extended Accounts” or, “Eligible Inventory”, Eligible In-Transit Inventory” or “Eligible Credit Card Receivables” shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition or other matter that is the basis for the Availability Reserve or change to any such eligibility requirements, as the case may be. Upon delivery of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall be available to discuss any proposed Availability Reserve or any proposed change to the eligibility requirements of the definitions of “Eligible Accounts”, “Eligible Extended Accounts” or, “Eligible Inventory”, Eligible In-Transit Inventory” or “Eligible Credit Card Receivables”, as the case may be, for a period of at least 10 Business Days before such Availability Reserve or change to any such eligibility requirements is implemented, and the Borrowers may take such action as may be required so that the event, condition or matter that is the basis for such Availability Reserve or increase no longer exists, in a manner and to the extent reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in the exercise of its Permitted Discretion. In no event shall such notice and opportunity limit the right of the Administrative Agent to establish such Availability Reserve, unless the Administrative Agent shall have determined in its Permitted Discretion that the event, condition or other matter that is the basis for such new Availability Reserve no longer exists or has otherwise been adequately addressed by the applicable Borrower. (II) In addition, upon the designation of any Hedging Agreement as a “Designated Hedging Agreement” or any Cash Management Arrangement as a “Designated Cash Management Agreement”, in each case in accordance with subsection 11.22, a Designated Hedging Reserve or Cash Management Reserve in an amount contemplated by the respective definition thereof and set forth in the applicable designation notice to the Administrative Agent relating to such Designated Hedging Agreement or Designated Cash Management Agreement shall be automatically and immediately established, without any action of the Administrative Agent; provided that no such Designated Hedging Reserve or Cash Management Reserve shall be established during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default or if the Aggregate Lender Exposure would exceed Availability as a result thereof, after giving effect to any other changes in the Aggregate Lender Exposure at such time, including any repayment of Revolving Credit Loans at such time. Any adjustment in any Designated Hedging Reserve or Cash Management Reserve contemplated by the respective definitions thereof shall be immediately effective upon the notification to the Administrative Agent of the amount of such adjustment and the details and results of (x) in the case of any Designated Hedging Reserve, the applicable mid-market quotations as provided in the penultimate sentence of the definition of “Designated Hedging Reserve” and (y) in the case of

any Cash Management Reserve, the new applicable anticipated monetary obligations as provided in the final sentence of the definition of “Cash Management Reserve”. In the event that the event, condition or other matter giving rise to the establishment of any Availability Reserve shall cease to exist (unless there is a reasonable prospect that such event, condition or other matter will occur again within a reasonable period of time thereafter), the Availability Reserve established pursuant to such event, condition or other matter, shall be discontinued. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Availability Reserves shall not duplicate (i) eligibility criteria contained in the definition of “Eligible Accounts” or “Eligible Extended Accounts” or “Eligible Inventory”, Eligible In-Transit Inventory” or “Eligible Credit Card Receivables” and vice versa, or (ii) reserves or criteria deducted in computing the value of Eligible Inventory (based on cost and quantity) and vice versa.

(c) In the event the Borrowers are unable to comply with (i) the borrowing base limitations set forth in subsection 2.1(a) or (ii) the conditions precedent to the making of Revolving Credit Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit set forth in Section 6, the Lenders authorize the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, to make Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrowers, which may only be made as ABR Loans (each, an “Agent Advance”) for a period commencing on the date the Administrative Agent first receives a notice of Borrowing requesting an Agent Advance until the earliest of (i) the 30th Business Day after such date, (ii) the date the respective Borrowers or Borrower is again able to comply with the Borrowing Base limitations and the conditions precedent to the making of Revolving Credit Loans and issuance of Letters of Credit, or obtains an amendment or waiver with respect thereto and (iii) the date the Required Lenders instruct the Administrative Agent to cease making Agent Advances (in each case, the “Agent Advance Period”). The Administrative Agent shall not make any Agent Advance to the extent that at such time the amount of such Agent Advance (A) when added to the aggregate outstanding amount of all other Agent Advances made to the Borrowers at such time, would exceed 10.0% of the Borrowing Base at such time (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered) or (B) when added to the Aggregate Lender Exposure as then in effect (immediately prior to the incurrence of such Agent Advance), would exceed the total Commitments at such time. It is understood and agreed that, subject to the requirements set forth above, Agent Advances may be made by the Administrative Agent in its discretion to the extent the Administrative Agent deems such Agent Advances necessary or desirable (x) to preserve and protect the applicable ABL Priority Collateral, or any portion thereof, (y) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents or (z) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses and other sums payable under the Loan Documents, and that the Borrowers shall have no right to require that any Agent Advances be made.

(d) Each Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Revolving Credit Lender made on or prior to the Closing Date or in connection with any assignment pursuant to subsection 11.6(b), in order to evidence such Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans, such Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 hereto (each, as amended, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time, a “Revolving Credit Note”), with appropriate insertions as to payee, date and principal amount, payable to such Lender and in a principal amount equal to the aggregate

unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans made (or acquired by assignment pursuant to subsection 11.6(b)) by such Revolving Credit Lender to such Borrower. Each Revolving Credit Note shall (i) be dated the Closing Date, (ii) be stated to mature on the Termination Date and (iii) provide for the payment of interest in accordance with subsection 4.1.

2.2 Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing. Each of the Borrowers may borrow under the Commitments during the Commitment Period on any Business Day, provided that the Borrower Representative shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable (in the case of any notice except notice with respect to the initial Extension of Credit hereunder, which shall be irrevocable after the funding) notice in substantially the form attached as Exhibit S (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to (a) 1:00 P.M., New York City time, at least three Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) prior to the requested Borrowing Date, if all or any part of the requested Revolving Credit Loans are to be initially Eurocurrency Loans or (b) ~~10:00~~11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the requested Borrowing Date, for ABR Loans) specifying (i) the identity of a Borrower, (ii) the amount to be borrowed, (iii) the requested Borrowing Date, (iv) whether the borrowing is to be of Eurocurrency Loans, ABR Loans or a combination thereof and (v) if the borrowing is to be entirely or partly of Eurocurrency Loans, the respective amounts of each such Type of Loan and the respective lengths of the initial Interest Periods therefor. Each borrowing shall be in an amount equal to (x) in the case of ABR Loans, except any ABR Loan to be used solely to pay a like amount of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations or Swingline Loans, in multiples of $500,000 (or, if the Commitments then available (as calculated in accordance with subsection 2.1(a)) are less than $500,000, such lesser amount) and (y) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, $500,000, or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Upon receipt of any such notice from the Borrower Representative the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Revolving Credit Lender thereof. Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified in subsection 6.2 (or in the case of the initial Extension of Credit on the Closing Date, subsection 6.1), each applicable Revolving Credit Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower identified in such notice at the office of the Administrative Agent specified in subsection 11.2 prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time. (or, if the time period for the Borrower Representative’s delivery of notice was extended, such later time as agreed to by the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, but in no event less than two hours following notice) (or 9:00 A.M., in the case of the initial borrowing hereunder (or, if the time period for the Borrower Representative’s delivery of notice was extended, such later time as agreed to by the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion, but in no event less than one hour following notice)), New York City time, on the Borrowing Date requested by such Borrower and 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 to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders and in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

2.3 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. The Parent Borrower (on behalf of itself and each other applicable Borrower) shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent (who will promptly notify the Lenders), to terminate the Commitments, or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any

prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans made on the effective date thereof, the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swingline Loans then outstanding, when added to the sum of the then outstanding L/C Obligations, would exceed the Commitments then in effect and provided, further, that any such notice of termination delivered by the Parent Borrower 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. 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 Commitments then in effect.

2.4 Swingline Commitments.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline loans (individually, a “Swingline Loan”; collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) to any of the Borrowers from time to time during the Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $~~25.0~~35.0 million; provided that at no time may the sum of the then outstanding Swingline Loans, Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations exceed the lesser of (1) the Commitments then in effect and (2) the Borrowing Base then in effect (based on the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate). Swingline Loans shall be made in minimum amounts of (x) at all times when a Dominion Event is not in existence, $100,000 and (y) at all other times, there will be no minimum amount. Amounts borrowed by any Borrower under this subsection 2.4 may be repaid and, through but excluding the Termination Date, reborrowed. All Swingline Loans made to any Borrower shall be made in Dollars as ABR Loans, and shall not be entitled to be converted into Eurocurrency Loans. The Borrower Representative (on behalf of itself or any other Borrower as the case may be), shall give the Swingline Lender irrevocable notice (which notice must be received by the Swingline Lender prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the requested Borrowing Date) specifying (1) the identity of a Borrower, (2) the amount of the requested Swingline Loan and (3) that the Borrowing is to be of ABR Loans. The proceeds of the Swingline Loans will be made available by the Swingline Lender to the Borrower identified in such notice at an office of the Swingline Lender by crediting the account of such Borrower at such office with such proceeds in Dollars.

(b) Each of the Borrowers agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by the Swingline Lender made on or prior to the Closing Date or in connection with any assignment pursuant to subsection 11.6(b), in order to evidence the Swingline Loans such Borrower will execute and deliver to the Swingline Lender a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto, with appropriate insertions (as the same may be amended, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Swingline Note”), payable to the Swingline Lender and representing the obligation of such Borrower to pay the amount of the Swingline Commitment or, if less, the unpaid principal amount of the Swingline Loans made to such Borrower, with interest thereon as prescribed in subsection 4.1. The Swingline Note shall (i) be dated the Closing Date, (ii) be stated to mature on the Termination Date and (iii) provide for the payment of interest in accordance with subsection 4.1.

(c) The Swingline Lender, (i) may, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion and (ii) shall, at any time as there shall be a Swingline Loan outstanding (x) in an

aggregate amount in excess of $5.0 million (or such other amount as the Parent Borrower may specify to the Swingline Lender from time to time, provided that such notice is received at least 1 Business Day prior to the effectiveness of such change) or (y) for more than five Business Days, on behalf of the Borrower to which the Swingline Loan has been made (which hereby irrevocably directs and authorizes such Swingline 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 subsection 9.1(f)) each Lender, including the Swingline Lender, to make a Revolving Credit Loan as an ABR Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all Swingline Loans made in Dollars (each, a “Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing”) in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the principal amount of all of the Swingline Loans (collectively, the “Refunded Swingline Loans”) outstanding on the date such notice is given; provided that the provisions of this subsection 2.4 shall not affect the obligations of any Borrower to prepay Swingline Loans in accordance with the provisions of subsection 4.4(c). Unless the Commitments shall have expired or terminated (in which event the procedures of clause (d) of this subsection 2.4 shall apply), each Lender hereby agrees to make the proceeds of its Revolving Credit Loan (including any Eurocurrency Loan) available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender at the office of the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 A.M., 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 Credit Loan Borrowing may not comply with the minimum amount for Revolving Credit Loans otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 6 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) the date of such Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing and (v) the amount of the Commitment of such, or any other, Lender at such time. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans (including without limitation, any Eurocurrency Loan) shall be immediately applied to repay the Refunded Swingline Loans.

(d) If the Commitments shall expire or terminate at any time while Swingline Loans are outstanding, each Lender shall, at the option of the Swingline Lender, exercised reasonably, either (i) notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the Commitments, make a Loan as an ABR Loan (which Revolving Credit Loan shall be deemed a “Revolving Credit Loan” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) or (ii) purchase an undivided participating interest in such Swingline Loans, in either case in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage determined on the date of, and immediately prior to, expiration or termination of the Commitments of the aggregate principal amount of such Swingline Loans; provided that in the event that any Mandatory Revolving Credit 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 domestic or foreign bankruptcy, reorganization, dissolution, insolvency, receivership, administration or liquidation or similar law with respect to any Borrower), then each Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from such Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender such participations in such outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause such Lenders to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon their respective Commitment Percentages, provided, further, that (x) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline 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 Lender shall be required to pay the Swingline Lender interest on the principal amount of the participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the rate otherwise applicable to Revolving Credit Loans made as ABR Loans. Each Lender will make the proceeds of any Revolving Credit Loan made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender at the office of the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, in Dollars in funds immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date on which the Commitments expire or terminate. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans shall be immediately applied to repay the Swingline Loans outstanding on the date of termination or expiration of the Commitments. In the event that the Lenders purchase undivided participating interests pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (d), each Lender shall immediately transfer to the Swingline Lender, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the Swingline Lender will deliver to such Lender a Swingline Loan Participation Certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.

(e) Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any Lender such Lender’s participating interest in a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account thereof (whether directly from a Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Collateral applied thereto by the Swingline Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Swingline Lender will, if such payment is received prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on a Business Day, distribute to such Lender its pro rata share thereof prior to the end of such Business Day and otherwise, the Swingline 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 Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swingline Lender is required to be returned, such Lender will return to the Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swingline Lender to it.

(f) Each Lender’s obligation to make the Revolving Credit Loans and to purchase participating interests with respect to Swingline Loans in accordance with subsections 2.4(c) and 2.4(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including without limitation (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender or any of the Borrowers may have against the Swingline Lender, any of the Borrowers 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 of the Borrowers; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any of the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other Lender; (v) any inability of any of the Borrowers to satisfy the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in this Agreement on the date upon which such Revolving Credit 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.

2.5 Repayment of Loans.

(a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars for the account of: (i) each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan of such Lender made to such Borrower, on the Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Revolving Credit Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 9); and (ii) the Swingline Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of the Swingline Loans made to such Borrower, on the Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Swingline Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 9). Each Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of such Loans from time to time outstanding from the date hereof until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in subsection 4.1.

(b) Each Lender (including the Swingline Lender) shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of each 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.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to subsection 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, the Borrowers to which such Loan is made, each Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto and whether such Loans are Revolving Credit Loans or Swingline Loans, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each of the Borrowers to each applicable Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from each of the Borrowers and each applicable Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to subsection 2.5(b) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of each 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 any Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to such Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

2.6 Incremental Facility.

(a) So long as no ~~Event of~~Specified Default exists or would arise therefrom, the Borrowers shall have the right, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, to request an increase of the aggregate amount of the then outstanding Commitments (the “Incremental Revolving Commitments” or the “Incremental Facilities” and each, an “Incremental Facility”). Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein, the principal amount of any Incremental Revolving Commitments shall not exceed the Available Incremental Amount at such time. The Parent Borrower may seek to obtain Incremental Revolving Commitments from existing Lenders or other Persons, as applicable (each an “Incremental Facility Increase,” and each Person extending, or Lender extending, Incremental Revolving Commitments, an “Additional Lender”), provided, however, that (i) no Lender shall be obligated to provide an Incremental Facility Increase as a result of any such request by the Borrowers, and (ii) any

Additional Lender which is not an existing Lender shall be subject to the approval of, the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any Incremental Revolving Commitments, the Swingline Lender, each Issuing Lender and the Borrowers (each such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). Each Incremental Facility Increase shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of at least $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Any Incremental Facility Increase may be denominated in Dollars.

(b) [Reserved].

(c) Any Incremental Revolving Commitments (A) shall be guaranteed by the Guarantors and shall rank pari passu in right of (x) priority with respect to the same Collateral securing the Obligations and (y) payment with respect to the Obligations in respect of the Commitments in effect prior to the Incremental Revolving Commitment Effective Date and (B) shall be on terms and pursuant to the documentation applicable to the existing Commitments; provided that the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and Applicable Margin relating to the Incremental Revolving Commitments may exceed the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and Applicable Margin relating to the Commitments in effect prior to the Incremental Revolving Commitment Effective Date so long as the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and Applicable Margins relating to all Revolving Credit Loans shall be adjusted to be equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate and Applicable Margin payable to the Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Commitments.

(d) The Incremental Facilities may be in the form of a separate “first-in, last-out” tranche (the “FILO Tranche”) with a separate borrowing base against the ABL Priority Collateral and interest rate margins in each case to be agreed upon (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not require any adjustment to the Applicable Margin of other Loans pursuant to clause (c) above) among the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing the FILO Tranche so long as (1) any loans under the FILO Tranche may not be guaranteed by any Subsidiaries of the Parent Borrower other than the Guarantors and shall rank pari passu (or, at the option of the Parent Borrower, junior) in right of priority with respect to the Collateral; (2) if the FILO Tranche availability exceeds $0, any Extension of Credit under the Revolving Credit Facility thereafter requested shall be made under the FILO Tranche until the FILO Tranche availability no longer exceeds $0; (3) as between (x) the Revolving Credit Facility (other than the FILO Tranche) and the Designated Hedging Agreements and Designated Cash Management Agreements and (y) the FILO Tranche, all proceeds from the liquidation or other realization of the Collateral (including ABL Priority Collateral) shall be applied, first to obligations owing under, or with respect to, the Revolving Credit Facility (other than the FILO Tranche) and such Designated Hedging Agreements and Designated Cash Management Agreements and second to the FILO Tranche; (4) no Borrower may prepay Revolving Credit Loans under the FILO Tranche or terminate or reduce the commitments in respect thereof at any time that other Loans and/or Reimbursement Obligations (unless cash collateralized or otherwise provided for in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) are outstanding; (5) the Required Lenders (calculated as including Lenders under the Incremental Facilities and the FILO Tranche) shall, subject to the terms of the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement, control exercise of remedies in respect of the Collateral and (5) no changes affecting the priority status of the Revolving Credit Facility (other than the FILO Tranche) vis-à-vis the FILO Tranche may be made without the consent of the Required Lenders

under the Revolving Credit Facility, other than such changes which affect only the FILO Tranche.

(e) No Incremental Facility Increase shall become effective unless and until each of the following conditions have been satisfied:

(i) The Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, and any Additional Lender shall have executed and delivered a joinder to the Loan Documents (“Lender Joinder Agreement”) in substantially the form of Exhibit V-2 hereto;

(ii) The Borrowers shall have paid such fees and other compensation to the Additional Lenders and to the Administrative Agent as the applicable Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and such Additional Lenders shall agree;

(iii) The applicable Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders an opinion or opinions, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent from counsel to the applicable Borrowers reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and dated such date;

(iv) A Revolving Credit Note (to the extent requested) will be issued at the applicable Borrowers’ expense, to each such Additional Lender, to be in conformity with requirements of subsection 2.1(d) (with appropriate modification) to the extent necessary to reflect the new Commitment of each Additional Lender;

(v) The Parent Borrower shall deliver a certificate certifying that (A) the representations and warranties made by the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries contained herein and in the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects on and as of closing date of such Incremental Facility except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct as of such earlier date, and (B) no ~~Event of~~Specified Default has occurred and is continuing; and

(vi) The applicable Borrowers and Additional Lenders shall have delivered such other instruments, documents and agreements as the Administrative Agent may reasonably have requested in order to effectuate the documentation of the foregoing.

(f)

(i) In the case of any Incremental Facility Increase, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of such Incremental Facility Increase (with each date of such effectiveness being referred to herein as an “Incremental Revolving Commitment Effective Date”), and at such time (A) the Commitments under, and for all purposes of, this Agreement shall be increased by the aggregate amount of such Incremental Revolving Commitments, (B) Schedule A shall be deemed modified, without further action, to reflect the revised Commitments and Commitment Percentages of the Lenders and (C) this Agreement shall be deemed amended, without further action, to the extent necessary to reflect any such Incremental Revolving Commitments.

(ii) In the case of any Incremental Facility Increase, the Administrative Agent, the Additional Lenders and the Borrowers agree to enter into any amendment required to incorporate the addition of the Incremental Revolving Commitments, the pricing of the Incremental Revolving Commitments, the maturity date of the Incremental Revolving Commitments and such other amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in connection therewith. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into such amendments.

(g) In connection with the Incremental Facility Increases hereunder, the Lenders and the Borrowers agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (i) the applicable Borrowers shall, in coordination with the Administrative Agent, (x) repay applicable outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of certain Lenders, and obtain applicable Revolving Credit Loans from certain other Lenders (including the Additional Lenders), or (y) take such other actions as reasonably may be required by the Administrative Agent to the extent necessary so that the Lenders effectively participate in each of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable, pro rata on the basis of their Commitment Percentages (determined after giving effect to any increase in the Commitments pursuant to this subsection 2.6), and (ii) the applicable Borrowers shall pay to the Lenders any costs of the type referred to in subsection 4.12 in connection with any repayment and/or Revolving Credit Loans required pursuant to the preceding clause (i). Without limiting the obligations of the Borrowers provided for in this subsection 2.6, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that they will use commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to minimize the costs of the type referred to in subsection 4.12 which the Borrowers would otherwise incur in connection with the implementation of an increase in the Commitments.

2.7 [Reserved].

2.8 Extension of Commitments.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrowers to all Revolving Credit Lenders of Commitments with a like maturity date (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the applicable Commitments) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrowers are hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender’s Commitments and otherwise modify the terms of such Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of, or changing the amortization or prepayment provisions of, such Commitments (and related outstandings)) (each, an “Extension”, and each group of Commitments as so extended, as well as the original Commitments (not so extended) being a “tranche”; any Extended Revolving Commitments shall constitute a separate tranche of Commitments from the tranche of Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied: (i) except as to interest rates, fees, final maturity, amortization and prepayment provisions (which shall be determined by the Borrowers and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Commitment of any Revolving Credit Lender that agrees to an extension with respect to such Commitment (an “Extending

Revolving Credit Lender” or the “Extending Lenders”) extended pursuant to an Extension (an “Extended Revolving Commitment”), and the related outstandings, shall be a Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with the same terms as the original Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (x) subject to the provisions of Section 3 and subsection 2.4 to the extent dealing with Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans which mature or expire after a maturity date when there exist Extended Revolving Commitments with a longer maturity date, all Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall be participated in on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Commitments in accordance with their Commitment Percentage of the Commitments and all borrowings under Commitments and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings) and (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Commitments) and (y) at no time shall there be Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Commitments and any original Commitments) which have more than two different maturity dates, unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (including agreements as to additional administrative fees to be paid by the Borrowers), and (ii) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrowers.

(b) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrowers pursuant to this subsection 2.8, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute optional or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of subsection 4.4 and (ii) no Extension Offer is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment, provided that the Borrowers may at their 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 Offer in the Borrowers’ sole discretion and which may be waived by the Borrowers) of Commitments of any or all applicable tranches be extended. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this subsection 2.8 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Revolving Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, subsections 4.4 and 4.8) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this subsection 2.8.

(c) No consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than (A) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to its Commitments (or a portion thereof) and (B) with respect to any Extension of the Commitments, the consent of each Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. All Extended Revolving Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrowers as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of Commitments so extended, permit the repayment of non-extending Loans on the Termination Date and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in connection therewith, in each case on terms consistent with this subsection 2.8. Without limiting

the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the then latest maturity date so that such maturity date is extended to the then latest maturity date (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent).

(d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrowers shall provide the Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including, without limitation, regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this subsection 2.8.

(e) If, in connection with any proposed Extension, any Lender declines to consent to the extension of its Commitment on the terms and by the deadline set forth in the applicable Extension Offer (each such other Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”) then the Parent Borrower may, on notice to the Administrative Agent and the Non-Extending Lender, (i) 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 subsection 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 to one or more assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Parent Borrower to find a replacement Lender; provided, further, that the applicable assignee shall have agreed to provide a Commitment on the terms set forth in such Extension Offer; 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 to such Non-Extending Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance or (ii) if no Event of Default exists under subsection 9.1(a) or (f), upon notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay the Loans and, at the Parent Borrower’s option, terminate the Commitments of such Non-Extending Lender, in whole or in part, subject to subsection 4.12, without premium or penalty. In connection with any such replacement under this subsection 2.8, 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 Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender (or, at its option, the Borrower) 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, the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register and the applicable 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.

(f) Following any Extension, with the written consent of the Parent Borrower, any Non-Extending Lender may elect to have all or a portion of its existing Commitments deemed to be an Extended Revolving Commitment under the applicable extended tranche on any

date (each date a “Designation Date”) prior to the maturity date or termination date, as applicable, of such extended tranche; provided that (i) 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) and (ii) no more than 3 Designation Dates may occur in any one-year period without the written consent of the Administrative Agent. Following a Designation Date, the existing Commitments held by such Lender so elected to be extended will be deemed to be an Extended Revolving Commitment as applicable, and any existing Commitments held by such Lender not elected to be extended, if any, shall continue to be existing Commitments.

SECTION 3. LETTERS OF CREDIT.

3.1 L/C Commitment.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in subsection 3.4(a), agrees to continue under this Agreement for the account of the Parent Borrower the Existing Letters of Credit issued by it and to issue letters of credit (the letters of credit issued on and after the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 3, together with the Existing Letters of Credit, collectively, the “Letters of Credit”) for the account of the applicable Borrower or (if required by the applicable Issuing Lender, so long as a Borrower is a co-applicant and jointly and severally liable thereunder) any Restricted Subsidiary on any Business Day during the Commitment Period but in no event later than the fifth (5th) day prior to the Termination Date in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Lender; provided that no Letter of Credit shall be issued if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the aggregate Extensions of Credit to the Borrowers would exceed the applicable limitations set forth in subsection 2.1, (ii) the L/C Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit would exceed $~~20.0~~35.0 million or (iii) the Aggregate Outstanding Credit of all the Revolving Credit Lenders would exceed the Commitments of all the Revolving Credit Lenders then in effect.; provided, further that in the event there is a Defaulting Lender as of the date of any request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue or arrange for such Letter of Credit to the extent (x) the Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure with respect to such Letter of Credit has not been reallocated pursuant to Section 4.15(d) or (y) such Issuing Lender has not otherwise entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it and Borrowers to eliminate its risk with respect to the participation in such Letter of Credit of the Defaulting Lender, which arrangements may include Borrowers cash collateralizing such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure.

(b) Each Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount no less than $50,000 and shall be either (i) a standby letter of credit issued to support obligations of the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, contingent or otherwise, which finance or otherwise arise in connection with the working capital and business needs of the Parent Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries, and for general corporate purposes, of the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (a “Standby Letter of Credit”), or (ii) a commercial letter of credit in respect of the purchase of goods or services by the Parent Borrower, or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (a “Commercial L/C”), and unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender and, in the case of clause (B) below, the Administrative Agent, expire no later than the earlier of (A) one year after its date of issuance and (B) the fifth

(5th) Business Day prior to the Termination Date; provided that, notwithstanding any extension of the Termination Date pursuant to subsection 2.8, unless otherwise agreed, no Issuing Lender shall be obligated to issue a Letter of Credit that expires beyond the non-extended Termination Date.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in subsection 3.1(b), if the Borrower Representative so requests in any L/C Request, the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic renewal provisions (each, an “Auto-Renewal L/C”); provided that any such Auto-Renewal L/C must permit the applicable Issuing Lender to prevent any such renewal at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Lender, the applicable Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Lender for any such renewal. Once an Auto-Renewal L/C has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Lender to permit the renewal of such Letter of Credit at any time to an extended expiry date not later than the earlier of (i) one year from the date of such renewal and (ii) the fifth (5th) Business Day prior to the Termination Date; provided that such Issuing Lender shall not permit any such renewal if (x) such Issuing Lender has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its renewed form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of subsection 3.2(c) or otherwise), or (y) it has received notice on or before the day that is two Business Days before the date which has been agreed upon pursuant to the proviso of the first sentence of this clause (c), (1) from the Administrative Agent that any Lender directly affected thereby has elected not to permit such renewal or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6 are not then satisfied, or that the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate subsection 3.1.

(d) Each Letter of Credit issued by an Issuing Lender shall be deemed to constitute a utilization of the Commitments, and shall be participated in (as more fully described in the following subsection 3.4) by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. All Letters of Credit issued hereunder shall be denominated in Dollars and shall be issued for the account of the applicable Borrower or (if required by the applicable Issuing Lender, so long as a Borrower is a co-applicant and jointly and severally liable thereunder) any Subsidiary.

(e) 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 Letter of Credit. The ISP shall not in any event apply to this Agreement. All Letters of Credit shall be issued on a sight basis only.

3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit.

(a) The Borrower Representative may, from time to time during the Commitment Period but in no event later than the 30th day prior to the Termination Date, request that an Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent at its address for notices specified herein, an L/C Request therefor in the form of Exhibit L 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. 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 an Issuing Lender be required, unless otherwise agreed to by such Issuing Lender, to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than five (5) 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 Borrower Representative. The applicable Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower Representative promptly following the issuance thereof. No Issuing Lender shall amend, cancel or waive presentation of any Letter of Credit in a manner adverse to the Borrowers (as determined by the applicable Issuing Lender in its reasonable discretion). Upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit or amendment, renewal, extension or modification to a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, who shall promptly notify each Lender, thereof, which notice shall be accompanied by a copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment, renewal, extension or modification to a Letter of Credit and the amount of such Lender’s respective participation in such Letter of Credit pursuant to subsection 3.4. If the applicable Issuing Lender is not the same person as the Administrative Agent, on the first Business Day of each calendar month, such Issuing Lender shall provide to the Administrative Agent a report listing all outstanding Letters of Credit and the amounts and beneficiaries thereof and the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide such report to each Lender.

(b) The making of each request for a Letter of Credit by the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Borrower Representative that such Letter of Credit may be issued in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, subsection 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 are not then satisfied, or that the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate subsection 3.1, then such Issuing Lender may issue the requested Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable Borrower or Subsidiary in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s usual and customary practices.

(i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any banking regulatory

authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit the issuance of letters of credit generally, or

(ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more existing (as of the date hereof) policies of such Issuing Lender consistently applied by such Issuing Lender to borrowers generally.

3.3 Fees, Commissions and Other Charges.

(a) Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent a letter of credit commission with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender on its behalf, computed for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit through to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, computed at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect for Eurocurrency Loans calculated based upon the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year, of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date with respect to such Letter of Credit and on the Termination Date or such earlier date as the Commitments shall terminate as provided herein. Such commission shall be payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders to be shared ratably among them in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. Each Borrower shall pay to the relevant Issuing Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit a fee equal to 1/8 of 1.0% per annum of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit or such other amounts as may be agreed by such Borrower and such Issuing Lender, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date with respect to such Letter of Credit and on the Termination Date or such other date as the Commitments shall terminate calculated based upon the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year. Such commissions and fees shall be nonrefundable. Such fees and commissions shall be payable in Dollars.

(b) In addition to the foregoing commissions and 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 such Issuing Lender within ten (10) days after demand therefor.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall, promptly following any receipt thereof, distribute to the applicable Issuing Lender and the applicable Lenders all commissions and fees received by the Administrative Agent for their respective accounts pursuant to this subsection 3.3.

3.4 L/C Participations.

(a) By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender or the Lenders, each Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to

acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, or expiration, termination or cash collateralization of any Letter of Credit and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. All calculations of the Lenders’ Commitment Percentages shall be made from time to time by the Administrative Agent, which calculations shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b) If the Borrowers fail to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender on the due date as provided in subsection 3.5, such Issuing Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and such Lender’s Commitment Percentage thereof. Each Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on such date (or, if such Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 P.M., New York City time, on any day, not later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day), an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the unreimbursed L/C Disbursement in the same manner as provided in subsection 2.2 with respect to Loans made by such Lender, and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender any amounts received by it from the Borrowers pursuant to the above clause (a) prior to the time that any Lender makes any payment pursuant to the preceding sentence and any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lender that shall have made such payments and to such Issuing Lender, as appropriate.

(c) If any Lender shall not have made its Commitment Percentage of such L/C Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, each of such Lender and each Borrower severally agrees to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with the foregoing to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender at (i) in the case of a Borrower, the rate per annum set forth in subsection 3.5(b) and (ii) in the case of such Lender, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation.

3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrowers.

(a) Each Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of any presentation of a draft under any Letter of Credit. Each Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse each Issuing Lender, upon receipt by the Borrower Representative of notice from the applicable 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 (an “L/C Disbursement”), 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 payment shall be made to the applicable Issuing Lender, at its address for notices specified herein, in Dollars in immediately available funds, no later than 3:00 P.M., New York

City time, on the date which is one (1) Business Day (or, if the Facility is fully drawn on such date and the applicable Borrower does not have sufficient cash on hand to make such payment, two (2) Business Days) after the date on which the Borrower Representative receives such notice, if received prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City Time, on a Business Day and otherwise, no later than 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day; provided that the Borrowers may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with subsection 2.2 that such payment be financed with ABR Loans or Swingline Loans in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Loans or Swingline Loans.

(b) Interest shall be payable on any and all amounts remaining unpaid by the Borrowers under this subsection 3.5(b) from the date the draft presented under the affected Letter of Credit is paid to the date on which the applicable Borrower is required to pay such amounts pursuant to clause (a) above at the rate which would then be payable on any outstanding ABR Loans that are Revolving Credit Loans and thereafter until payment in full at the rate which would be payable on any outstanding ABR Loans that are Revolving Credit Loans which were then overdue.

3.6 Obligations Absolute. The Reimbursement Obligations of Borrowers as provided in subsection 3.5 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein; (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit being proved to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iii) payment by any Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that fails to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 3, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the obligations of a Borrower hereunder; (v) the fact that a Default shall have occurred and be continuing; or (vi) any material adverse change in the business, property, results of operations, prospects or condition, financial or otherwise, of the Parent Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries. None of the Agents, the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or any of their affiliates shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lenders; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrowers to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law) suffered by the Borrowers that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender (as determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have

exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

3.7 L/C Disbursements. The applicable Issuing Lender shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Lender shall promptly give written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve any Borrower of its Reimbursement Obligation to such Issuing Lender and the Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement (other than with respect to the timing of such Reimbursement Obligation set forth in subsection 3.5).

3.8 L/C Request. 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 or any Subsidiary, to, or entered into by any Borrower or any Subsidiary with, any Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

3.9 Cash Collateralization. If the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated or to the extent any L/C Obligation remains outstanding following the Termination Date, the Borrowers shall then deposit on terms and in accounts satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Collateral Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 103% of the amount of L/C Obligations as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Funds so deposited shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be applied to satisfy other Obligations of the Borrowers under this Agreement.

3.10 Additional Issuing Lenders. The Borrower Representative 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 an issuing lender under the terms of this Agreement. Any Lender designated as an issuing lender pursuant to this subsection 3.10 shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Lender” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Lender or Issuing Lenders and such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such additional Issuing Lender. If at any time there is more than one Issuing Lender hereunder, the Borrower Representative may, in its discretion, select which Issuing Lender is to issue any particular Letter of Credit.

3.11 Resignation or Removal of the Issuing Lender. Any Issuing Lender may resign as Issuing Lender hereunder at any time upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice to the

Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative. Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower Representative, each Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such resignation or replacement of an Issuing Lender. At the time any such resignation of an Issuing Lender shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the retiring Issuing Lender pursuant to subsection 3.3. From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of an Issuing Lender, the retiring or replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

SECTION 4. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

4.1 Interest Rates and Payment Dates.

(a) Each Eurocurrency Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day.

(b) Each ABR Loan shall bear interest for each day that it is outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the ABR for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day.

(c) If all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan, (ii) any interest payable thereon or (iii) any commitment fee, letter of credit commission, letter of credit fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is (x) in the case of overdue principal, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the relevant foregoing provisions of this subsection 4.1 plus 2.00%, (y) in the case of other amounts (including overdue interest), the rate described in paragraph (b) of this subsection 4.1 for ABR Loans that are Revolving Credit Loans plus 2.00%, in each case from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment); provided that (1) no amount shall be payable pursuant to this subsection 4.1(c) to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender and (2) no amounts shall accrue pursuant to this subsection 4.1(c) on any overdue amount or other amount payable to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.

(d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this subsection 4.1 shall be payable from time to time on demand.

(e) It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply strictly with applicable usury laws; accordingly, it is stipulated and agreed that the aggregate of all amounts which

100

constitute interest under applicable usury laws, whether contracted for, charged, taken, reserved, or received, in connection with the indebtedness evidenced by this Agreement or any Notes, or any other document relating or referring hereto or thereto, now or hereafter existing, shall never exceed under any circumstance whatsoever the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable usury laws.

4.2 Conversion and Continuation Options.

(a) The applicable Borrowers may elect from time to time to convert outstanding Loans from Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans by the Borrower Representative giving the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) prior irrevocable notice of such election. The applicable Borrowers may elect from time to time to convert outstanding Loans from ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans by the Borrower Representative giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) prior irrevocable notice of such election, provided that any such conversion of Eurocurrency Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Any such notice of conversion to Eurocurrency Loans shall be in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit S and shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender thereof. All or any part of outstanding Eurocurrency Loans and ABR Loans may be converted as provided herein, provided that (i) (unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent) no Loan may be converted into a Eurocurrency Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has given notice to the Parent Borrower that no such conversions may be made and (ii) no Loan may be converted into a Eurocurrency Loan after the date that is one month prior to the applicable Termination Date.

(b) Any Eurocurrency Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower Representative giving notice, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit S, to the Administrative Agent of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loan, determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in subsection 1.1, provided that no Eurocurrency Loan may be continued as such (i) (unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent) when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has given notice to the Parent Borrower that no such continuations may be made or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the applicable Termination Date, and provided further, that if the Borrower Representative shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this subsection 4.2(b) or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Eurocurrency Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice of continuation pursuant to this subsection 4.2(b), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender thereof.

4.3 Minimum Amounts of Sets. All borrowings, conversions and continuations of Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount

101

of the Eurocurrency Loans comprising each Set shall be equal to $500,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and so that there shall not be more than 10 Sets in any one Tranche at any one time outstanding.

4.4 Optional and Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) Each of the Borrowers may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans made to it and the Reimbursement Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit issued for its account, in whole or in part, subject to subsection 4.12, without premium or penalty, upon notice (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit E) by the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time at least three Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) prior to the date of prepayment (in the case of Eurocurrency Loans), or prior to ~~1:00 P~~11:00 A.M., New York City time ~~at least one Business Day prior to~~ (or such later time as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) on the date of prepayment (in the case of ABR Loans other than Swingline Loans) or same-day notice (prior to 4:00 P.M., New York City time) by the Borrower Representative to the Administrative Agent (in the case of (x) Swingline Loans and (y) Reimbursement Obligations outstanding in Dollars). Such notice shall specify, in the case of any prepayment of Loans, the identity of the prepaying Borrower, the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is (i) of Revolving Credit Loans, Incremental ABL Loans, Extended ABL Loans or Swingline Loans, or a combination thereof, and (ii) of Eurocurrency Loans or ABR Loans, or a combination thereof, and, in each case if a combination thereof, the principal amount allocable to each and, in the case of any prepayment of Reimbursement Obligations, the date and amount of prepayment, the identity of the applicable Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit and the amount allocable to each of such Reimbursement Obligations. Upon the receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender thereof. Any such notice 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. If any such notice is given and is not revoked, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (if a Eurocurrency Loan is prepaid other than at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto) any amounts payable pursuant to this subsection 4.12. Partial prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations pursuant to subsection 4.4(a) shall (unless the Parent Borrower otherwise directs) be applied, first, to payment of the Swingline Loans then outstanding, second, to payment of the Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding, third, to payment of any Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding and, last, to cash collateralize any outstanding L/C Obligation on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Partial prepayments pursuant to this subsection 4.4(a) shall be in multiples of $250,000 (in the case of Loans other than Swingline Loans) and in a minimum amount of $100,000, in the case of Swingline Loans, as applicable, provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any Loan may be prepaid in its entirety.

(b) On any day (other than with respect to Agent Advances during an Agent Advance Period) on which the Aggregate Lender Exposure or the unpaid balance of Extensions of Credit to, or for the account of, the Borrowers exceeds the Borrowing Base (based on the

102

Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered) or the total Commitments at such time, the Borrowers shall prepay on such day the principal of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans in an amount equal to such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, the aggregate amount of the L/C Obligations exceeds the Borrowing Base at such time (based on the Borrowing Base Certificate last delivered) or the total Commitments at such time, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent on such day an amount of cash and/or Cash Equivalents equal to the amount of such excess (up to a maximum amount equal to such L/C Obligations at such time), such cash and/or Cash Equivalents to be held as security for all obligations of the Borrowers to the Issuing Lenders and the Revolving Credit Lenders hereunder in a cash collateral account to be established by, and under the sole dominion and control of, the Administrative Agent.

(c) The Borrowers shall prepay all Swingline Loans then outstanding simultaneously with each borrowing by them of Revolving Credit Loans.

(d) Prepayments pursuant to subsection 4.4(b) shall be applied, first, to prepay Swingline Loans then outstanding, second, to prepay Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding, third, to pay any Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding and, last, to cash collateralize all L/C Obligations on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) For avoidance of doubt, the Commitments shall not be correspondingly reduced by the amount of any prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans, payments of Reimbursement Obligations and cash collateralizations of L/C Obligations, in each case, made under subsection 4.4(b).

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 4.4, if at any time any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to subsection 4.4(a) or 4.4(b) would result, after giving effect to the procedures set forth in this Agreement, in any Borrower incurring breakage costs under subsection 4.12 as a result of Eurocurrency Loans being prepaid other than on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto, then, the relevant Borrower may, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in its sole discretion, initially (i) deposit a portion (up to 100.0%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of such Eurocurrency Loans with the Administrative Agent (which deposit must be equal in amount to the amount of such Eurocurrency Loans not immediately prepaid), to be held as security for the obligations of such 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 (or such earlier date or dates as shall be requested by such Borrower) or (ii) make a prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans in accordance with subsection 4.4(a) 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 (which prepayment, together with any deposits pursuant to clause (i) above, must be equal in amount to the amount of such Eurocurrency Loans not immediately prepaid); provided that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, none of the Borrowers may request any Extension of Credit under the Commitments that would reduce Excess Availability to an amount that is less than the amount of such prepayment until the related portion of such Eurocurrency Loans have been prepaid upon the first occurrence thereafter of the last day of an

103

Interest Period with respect to such Eurocurrency Loans; provided that, in the case of either clause (i) or (ii) above, such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans shall continue to bear interest in accordance with subsection 4.1 until such unpaid Eurocurrency Loans or the related portion of such Eurocurrency Loans, as the case may be, have or has been prepaid.

(g) If a notice of prepayment in connection with a repayment of all outstanding Loans is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of Commitments as contemplated by subsection 2.3, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with subsection 2.3.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this subsection 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 loans (or other credit or letter of credit facility) added pursuant to subsections 2.6 and 2.8, as applicable.

4.5 Commitment Fees; Administrative Agent’s Fee; Other Fees.

(a) Each Borrower agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, a commitment fee for the period from and including the first day of the Commitment Period to the Termination Date, computed at the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the Unutilized Commitment of such Revolving Credit 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 Termination Date or such earlier date as the Commitments shall terminate as provided herein, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof.

(b) Each Borrower agrees to pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent the fees set forth in the last paragraph under the heading “ABL Facility Fees” of the Fee Letter on the payment dates set forth therein.

4.6 Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) Interest (other than interest based on Prime Rate) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed; and interest based on the Prime Rate and any other fees 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 an Adjusted LIBOR Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Statutory Reserves 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.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on each of the Borrowers and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower Representative or any Lender, deliver to the Borrower

104

Representative or such Lender a statement showing in reasonable detail the calculations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to subsection 4.1, excluding any Adjusted LIBOR Rate which is based upon the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Services page and any ABR Loan which is based upon the Prime Rate.

(c) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, each Reference Bank (whether or not currently a Lender hereunder) agrees that, if such Reference Bank is currently providing quotes for deposits in Dollars to leading banks in the London interbank market, it will promptly (and no later than the Business Day following any such request) supply the Administrative Agent with the rate quoted by such Reference Bank to leading banks in the London interbank market two Business Days before the first day of the relevant Interest Period for deposits in Dollars of a duration equal to the duration of such Interest Period.

4.7 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon each of the Borrowers) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBOR Rate with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan (the “Affected Rate”) 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) any Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based on the Affected Rate requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (b) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Rate shall be converted to or continued as ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Rate shall be made or continued as such, nor shall any of the Borrowers have the right to convert ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Rate.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent (i) determines that the circumstances described in this subsection 4.7 have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) determines that the circumstances described in this subsection 4.7 have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans or (iii) if the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower determine that new syndicated loans have started to adopt a new benchmark interest rate, then the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBOR Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable; provided that to the extent that the Administrative Agent determines that adoption of any portion of such market convention is not administratively feasible or that no market convention for the administration of such alternate rate of interest exists, the Administrative Agent shall administer such alternate rate of interest in a manner determined by the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long

105

as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. If a notice of an alternate rate of interest has been given and no such alternate rate of interest has been determined, and (x) the circumstances under clause (i) or (iii) above exist or (y) the specific date referred to in clause (ii) has occurred (as applicable), ABR shall apply without regard to clause (c) of the definition thereof. For the avoidance of doubt, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.

4.8 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans (other than Swingline Loans) by any of the applicable Borrowers from the Lenders hereunder shall be made, each payment (except as provided in subsection 4.15) by any of the Borrowers on account of any commitment fee in respect of the Commitments hereunder shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent and any reduction (except as provided in subsection 2.6, 4.13(d) or 11.1(g)) of the Commitments of the Lenders, as applicable, shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent in each case pro rata according to the Commitment Percentage of the Lenders provided that at the request of the Parent Borrower, in lieu of such application on a pro rata basis among all Commitments, such reduction may be applied to any Commitments so long as the Termination Date of such Commitments precedes the Termination Date of each other Tranche of Commitments then outstanding or, in the event more than one Tranche of Commitments shall have an identical Termination Date that precedes the Termination Date of each other Tranche of Commitments then outstanding, to such Tranches on a pro rata basis. Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, each payment (including each prepayment (but excluding payments made pursuant to subsection 2.6, 2.8, 4.5(b), 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13(d), 4.15(c) or 11.1(g) or 11.6)) by any of the applicable Borrowers on account of principal of and interest on any Revolving Credit Loans (other than (x) payments in respect of any difference in the Applicable Margin, Adjusted LIBOR Rate or ABR in respect of any Tranche, (y) [Reserved] and (z) any payment accompanying a termination of Commitments pursuant to the provisos to the first sentence of this subsection 4.8(a) which shall be applied to the Loans outstanding under the Tranches under which Commitments are being terminated) shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of such Revolving Credit Loans then held by the relevant Revolving Credit Lenders. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by any of the Borrowers hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees, Reimbursement Obligations or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made on or prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 P.M., New York City time) on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders holding the relevant Loans, the Administrative Agent, or the Other Representatives, as the case may be, at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in subsection 11.2, and shall be made in Dollars, and in immediately available funds. 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 Other Representatives, 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

106

Lenders or Other Representatives, as the case may be, on the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on Eurocurrency 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 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 subsection 4.8(a) may be amended in accordance with subsection 11.1(d) or 11.1(g) 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 subsections 2.6 and 2.8, as applicable.

(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 the Administrative 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 Borrowers 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 the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate 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 subsection 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 ABR Loans hereunder on demand from such Borrower and (y) then such Borrower 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, provided that at the time such borrowing is made and at all times while such amount is outstanding such Borrower would be permitted to borrow such amount pursuant to subsection 2.1.

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 Eurocurrency Loans as contemplated by this Agreement (“Affected Loans”), (a) such Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to the Borrower Representative 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 to an Affected Loan shall forthwith be cancelled and, until such time as it shall no longer

107

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 a Swingline Loan) when an Affected Loan is requested and (c) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Affected Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to ABR 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. 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 applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to subsection 4.12.

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 any Issuing Lender, or compliance by any Lender or any Issuing 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 or such Issuing Lender becomes an Issuing Lender):

(i) shall subject such Lender or such Issuing Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to any Letter of Credit, any L/C Request or any Eurocurrency Loans made or maintained by it or its obligation to make or maintain Eurocurrency Loans, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender or Issuing Lender in respect thereof, in each case, except for Non-Excluded Taxes, Taxes imposed by FATCA and Taxes measured by or imposed upon net income, or franchise Taxes, or Taxes measured by or imposed upon overall capital or net worth, or branch Taxes (in the case of such capital, net worth or branch Taxes, imposed in lieu of such net income Tax), of such Lender, such Issuing Lender or its applicable lending office, branch, or any affiliate 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 LIBOR Rate hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender or such Issuing 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 or such Issuing Lender, by an amount which such Lender or such Issuing Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurocurrency 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 applicable Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender or such Issuing Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable with respect to such Eurocurrency Loans, or Letters of Credit, provided that, in any

108

such case, such Borrower may elect to convert the Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender hereunder to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day’s notice (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) of such election, in which case such Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender, upon demand, without duplication, amounts theretofore required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to this subsection 4.10(a) and such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to subsection 4.12. If any Lender or Issuing Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this subsection 4.10(a), it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Parent Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in this clause (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 or Issuing Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection 4.10(a) submitted by such Lender or Issuing 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 subsection 4.10(a), the Parent Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this subsection 4.10(a) (i) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender notifies the Parent Borrower of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor or (ii) for any amounts, if such Lender or Issuing Lender is applying this provision to the Parent Borrower in a manner that is inconsistent with its application of “increased cost” or other similar provisions under other syndicated credit agreements to similarly situated borrowers. This subsection 4.10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(b) If any Lender or any Issuing Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or such Issuing Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender or such Issuing Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (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, Issuing Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s, or such Issuing Lender’s obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender, Issuing Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Lender to be material, then from time to time, within ten Business Days after submission by such Lender or Issuing Lender to the Parent Borrower (through the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor certifying (x) that one of the events described in this clause (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 such Issuing Lender or corporation and a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof, the applicable Borrower shall pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or corporation for such reduction. Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this subsection 4.10(b) submitted by such Lender or Issuing Lender, through the Administrative

109

Agent, to the Parent Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection 4.10(b), the Parent Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this subsection 4.10(b) (i) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender notifies the Parent Borrower of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor or (ii) for any amounts, if such Lender or Issuing Lender is applying this provision to the Parent Borrower in a manner that is inconsistent with its application of “increased cost” or other similar provisions under other syndicated credit agreements to similarly situated borrowers. This subsection 4.10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Xxxx Xxxxx Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines and directives promulgated thereunder or issued in connection therewith and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, in each case shall be deemed to have been enacted, adopted or issued, as applicable, subsequent to the Closing Date for all purposes herein.

4.11 Taxes.

(a) Except as provided below in this subsection 4.11 or as required by law (which term shall include FATCA), all payments made by the Borrowers under this Agreement and any Notes shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes; provided that if any Non-Excluded Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable by any Borrower or Agent to any 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 such 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; provided, however, that the Borrowers shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, and the Borrowers shall not be required to indemnify for any Non-Excluded Taxes, and any such amounts payable by any Borrower or Agent to or for the account of any Agent or Lender, shall not be increased (x) if such Agent or Lender fails to comply with the requirements of clauses (b), (c) or (d) of this subsection 4.11, or (y) with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes imposed in connection with the payment of any fees paid under this Agreement, unless such Non-Excluded Taxes are imposed (1) as a result of a change in treaty, law or regulation that occurred after such Agent became an Agent hereunder or such Lender became a Lender hereunder (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) (any such change, at such time, a “Change in Law”) or (2) on a Person that is an assignee whose assignor was entitled to receive additional amounts with respect to payments made by any Borrower, at the time such assignment was effective, as a result of Change in Law that occurred after the Closing Date and such assignee is subject to the same Change in Law with respect to payments from any Borrower, provided that in no event shall such additional amounts under this clause (2) exceed the additional amounts that the assignor was entitled to receive at the time such assignment was effective, or (z) with respect to any Non-

110

Excluded Taxes imposed by the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof, unless such Non-Excluded Taxes are imposed (1) as a result of a Change in Law or (2) on a Person that is an assignee whose assignor was entitled to receive additional amounts with respect to payments made by any Borrower, at the time such assignment was effective, as a result of Change in Law that occurred after the Closing Date and such assignee is subject to the same Change in Law with respect to payments from any Borrower, provided that in no event shall such additional amounts under this clause (2) exceed the additional amounts that the assignor was entitled to receive at the time such assignment was effective. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by any Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter such Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the respective Lender or Agent, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt (or other documentary evidence of such payment reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) received by such Borrower showing payment thereof. If any Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Agents for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. The agreements in this subsection 4.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. For the purposes of this Section 4.11 and related definition, “Lender” includes “Issuing Lender”.

(b) Each Agent and each Lender that is a “United States person” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date or, in the case of an Agent or Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to subsection 11.6, on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Agent or Lender, two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor form), in each case certifying that such Agent or Lender is a “United States person” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) and to such Agent’s or Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States federal backup withholding Tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note. Each Agent and each Lender that is not a “United States person” (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date or, in the case of an Agent or Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to subsection 11.6, on the date of such assignment or transfer to such Agent or Lender, (i) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN-E (claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty) (or successor forms), in each case certifying to such Agent’s or Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States federal withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note, (ii) if such Agent or Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and cannot deliver Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or Form W-8BEN (claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty) or Form W-8BEN-E (claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty) (or successor form) pursuant to clause (i) above, (x) two certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit F (any such certificate, a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming the benefits of the portfolio interest

111

exemption) or Form W-8BEN-E (claiming the benefits of the portfolio interest exemption) (or successor forms) certifying to such Agent’s, or Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States federal withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement and under any Note or (iii) if such Agent or Lender is a non-U.S. intermediary or flow-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, two accurate and complete signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (and all necessary attachments, including to the extent applicable, U.S. Tax Compliance Certificates) certifying to such Agent’s or Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States federal withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any Note (or, to the extent the beneficial owners of such non-U.S. intermediary or flow through entity are (i) non-U.S. persons claiming portfolio interest treatment, a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to interest payments or (ii) United States persons, a complete exemption from United States federal backup withholding tax), unless, in each case, such Person is an assignee whose assignor was entitled to receive additional amounts with respect to payments made by any Borrower, at the time such assignment was effective, as a result of Change in Law that occurred after the Closing Date and such assignee is subject to the same Change in Law with respect to payments from any Borrower. In addition, each Agent and Lender agrees that from time to time after the Closing Date, when the passage of time or a change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate, such Agent or Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN (claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty), or Form W-8BEN-E (claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty), or Form W-8BEN (claiming the benefits of the portfolio interest exemption) and a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, or Form W-8BEN-E (claiming the benefits of the portfolio interest exemption) and a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate, or Form W-8IMY (with respect to a non-U.S. intermediary or flow-through entity), as the case may be, and such other forms as may be required in order to confirm or establish the entitlement of such Agent or Lender to a continued exemption from United States federal withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Note (or, to the extent the beneficial owners of such non-U.S. intermediary or flow through entity are (i) non-U.S. persons claiming portfolio interest treatment, a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to interest payments or (ii) United States persons, a complete exemption from United States federal backup withholding tax), unless, in each case, (1) there has been a Change in Law that occurs after the date such Agent or Lender becomes an Agent or Lender hereunder (or after the date the relevant beneficiary or member in the case of a Lender that is a non-U.S. intermediary or flow through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes becomes a beneficiary or member, if later) which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Agent or Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it, in which case such Agent or Lender shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to deliver any such form or (2) such Person is an assignee whose assignor was entitled to receive additional amounts with respect to payments made by any Borrower, at the time such assignment was effective, as a result of Change in Law that occurred after the Closing Date and such assignee is subject to the same Change in Law with respect to payments from any such Borrower.

(c) Each Agent and Lender shall, upon request by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, deliver to the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and/or the

112

applicable Governmental Authority, as the case may be, any form or certificate required in order that any payment by any Borrower or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any Note to such Agent or Lender may be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Non-Excluded Taxes (or to allow any such deduction or withholding to be at a reduced rate), provided that such Agent or Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such form or certificate. Each Person that shall become a Lender or a Participant pursuant to subsection 11.6 shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all of the forms, certifications and statements pursuant to paragraph (b), this paragraph (c) and paragraph (d) of this subsection 4.11 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein), provided that in the case of a Participant the obligations of such Participant pursuant to paragraph (b), this paragraph (c) and paragraph (d) of this subsection 4.11 shall be determined as if such Participant were a Lender except that such Participant shall furnish all such required forms, certifications and statements to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased.

(d) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent is not a United States Person, on or before the date of any payment by any Borrower under this Agreement or any Notes to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Parent Borrower (A) two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI, or successor applicable form, with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for its own account, (B) two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8IMY, or successor applicable form, with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of others, 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 Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a U.S. person with respect to such payments as contemplated by U.S. Treasury Regulation § 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)) and (C) such other forms or certifications as may be sufficient under applicable law to establish that the Administrative Agent is entitled to receive any payment by any Borrower under this Agreement or any Notes (whether for its own account or for the account of others) without deduction or withholding of any U.S. federal income taxes. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Parent Borrower two further accurate and complete

113

original signed forms or certifications provided in the prior sentence 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, unless in any such case (other than with respect to United States backup withholding tax) there has been a Change in Law which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent the Administrative Agent from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and the Administrative Agent so advises the Parent Borrower.

4.12 Indemnity. Each Borrower agrees 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 in a final and non-appealable decision) as a consequence of (a) default by such Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans after the Parent Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by such Borrower in making any prepayment or conversion of Eurocurrency Loans after the Borrower Representative 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 or the conversion of Eurocurrency 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, as applicable, 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 subsection 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 subsection 4.12 submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Parent Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This subsection 4.12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

4.13 Certain Rules Relating to the Payment of Additional Amounts.

(a) Upon the request, and at the expense of the applicable Borrower, each Lender and Issuing Lender and Agent to which any of the Borrowers is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to subsection 4.10 or 4.11, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall reasonably afford such Borrower the opportunity to contest, and reasonably cooperate with such Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Non-

114

Excluded Tax giving rise to such payment; provided that (i) such Lender or Issuing Lender or Agent shall not be required to afford such Borrower the opportunity to so contest unless such Borrower shall have confirmed in writing to such Lender or Issuing Lender or Agent its obligation to pay such amounts pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) such Borrower shall reimburse such Lender or Issuing Lender or Agent for its reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in so cooperating with such Borrower in contesting the imposition of such Non-Excluded Tax; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing no Lender or Issuing Lender or Agent shall be required to afford any Borrower the opportunity to contest, or cooperate with such Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Non-Excluded Taxes, if such Lender or Issuing Lender or Agent in its sole discretion in good faith determines that to do so would have an adverse effect on it.

(b) If a Lender or Issuing Lender changes its applicable lending office (other than (i) pursuant to clause (c) below or (ii) after an Event of Default under subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) has occurred and is continuing) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause any of the Borrowers to become obligated to pay any additional amount under subsection 4.10 or 4.11, such Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount.

(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 or Issuing Lender or Agent by any of the Borrowers pursuant to subsection 4.10 or 4.11 or result in Affected Loans or commitments to make Affected Loans being automatically converted to ABR Loans or commitments to make ABR Loans, as the case may be, pursuant to subsection 4.9, such Lender or Issuing Lender or Agent shall promptly after becoming aware of such event or condition 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 held by such Lender at another lending office, or through another branch or an affiliate, of such Lender); provided that such Lender or Issuing Lender or Agent 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 Parent Borrower agrees to reimburse such Lender or Issuing Lender or Agent for the reasonable incremental out-of-pocket costs thereof).

(d) If any of the Borrowers shall become obligated to pay additional amounts pursuant to subsection 4.10 or 4.11 and any affected Lender shall not have promptly taken steps necessary to avoid the need for payments under subsection 4.10 or 4.11 or if Affected Loans or commitments to make Affected Loans are automatically converted to ABR Loans or commitments to make ABR Loans, as the case may be, under subsection 4.9 and any affected Lender shall not have promptly taken steps necessary to avoid the need for such conversion under subsection 4.9, the applicable Borrower shall have the right, for so long as such obligation remains, (i) to seek one or more substitute Lenders reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such Borrower to purchase the affected Loan, in whole or in part, at an aggregate price no less than such Loan’s principal amount plus accrued interest, and assume the affected obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) so long as no Event of Default under subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) then exists or will exist immediately after giving effect to the respective prepayment, upon notice to the Administrative Agent to prepay the affected Loan, in whole or in part, subject

115

to subsection 4.12, without premium or penalty and terminate the Commitments in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility of such Lender. In the case of the substitution of a Lender, then, the Parent Borrower, any other applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the affected Lender, and any substitute Lender shall execute and deliver an appropriately completed Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to subsection 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 subsection 11.6(b) in connection with such assignment shall be paid by the Parent 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 applicable Borrower shall first pay the affected Lender any additional amounts owing under subsections 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 subsection 4.13) prior to such substitution or prepayment. In the case of the substitution of a Lender pursuant to this subsection 4.13(d) or subsection 4.15(c)(i), 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 participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender and/or the Parent Borrower 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 applicable 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 or any Issuing Lender receives a refund directly attributable to Taxes for which any of the Borrowers has made additional payments pursuant to subsection 4.10(a) or 4.11(a), such Agent or such Lender or such Issuing 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 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 or Issuing 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, Issuing Lender or Participant under this subsection 4.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all amounts payable hereunder.

4.14 Controls on Prepayment if Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exceeds Aggregate Revolving Credit Loan Commitments.

(a) In addition to the provisions set forth in subsection 4.4(b), the Parent Borrower will implement and maintain internal controls to monitor the borrowings and repayments of Loans by the Borrowers and the issuance of and drawings under Letters of Credit,

116

with the objective of preventing any request for an Extension of Credit that would result in (i) the Aggregate Outstanding Credit with respect to all of the Revolving Credit Lenders (including the Swingline Lender) being in excess of the aggregate Commitments then in effect or (ii) any other circumstance under which an Extension of Credit would not be permitted pursuant to subsection 2.1(a).

(b) The Administrative Agent will calculate the Aggregate Outstanding Credit with respect to all of (A) the Revolving Credit Lenders and (B) the Lenders (in each case, including the Swingline Lender) from time to time, and in any event not less frequently than once during each calendar week. In making such calculations, the Administrative Agent will rely on the information most recently received by it from the Swingline Lender in respect of outstanding Swingline Loans and from the Issuing Lenders in respect of outstanding L/C Obligations.

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

(a) no commitment fee shall accrue for the account of a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender (except to the extent it is payable to any Issuing Lender pursuant to clause (d)(v) below);

(b) in determining the Required Lenders or Supermajority Lenders, any Lender that at the time is a Defaulting Lender (and the Loans and/or Commitment of such Defaulting Lender) shall be excluded and disregarded;

(c) the Parent Borrower shall have the right, at its sole expense and effort (i) to seek one or more Persons reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower to each become a substitute Revolving Credit Lender and assume all or part of the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender and the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any such substitute Revolving Credit Lender shall execute and deliver, and such Defaulting Lender shall thereupon be deemed to have executed and delivered, an appropriately completed Assignment and Acceptance to effect such substitution or (ii) so long as no Event of Default under subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) then exists or will exist immediately after giving effect to the respective prepayment, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, to prepay the Loans and, at the Parent Borrower’s option, terminate the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty;

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

(i) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and L/C Obligations shall be re-allocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages but only to the extent the sum of all Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s

117

(g) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative, each applicable Issuing Lender or the Swingline 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 Swingline Exposure and 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 Commitment Percentage. Subject to Section 11.23, the rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this subsection 4.15 are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Non-Defaulting Lenders may have against such Defaulting Lender.

This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Holding and the Parent 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 Holding, the Parent 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).

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 except (other than with respect to any violation of the Organizational Documents of the Loan Parties) as would not 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.

5.9 Intellectual Property. The Parent Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries owns, or has the legal right to use, all United States patents, patent applications, trademarks, trademark applications, trade names, copyrights, technology, know-how and processes necessary for each of them to conduct its business substantially as currently conducted 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.

125

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Indebtedness Incurred by the Borrowers on the Closing Date under this Agreement or the First Lien Credit Agreement or the Second Lien Credit Agreement shall be classified as Incurred under subsection 8.1(b)(xiv), 8.1(b)(i) and 8.1(b)(iii)(A) respectively, and not, in each case, under subsection 8.1(a).

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with any Dollar denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, the Dollar-equivalent principal amount of such Indebtedness Incurred pursuant thereto shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date that such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness, provided that (x) the Dollar-equivalent principal amount of any such Indebtedness outstanding on the Closing Date shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Closing Date, (y) if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency (or in a different currency from such Indebtedness so being Incurred), and such refinancing would cause the applicable Dollar denominated restriction to be

153

exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed (i) the outstanding or committed principal amount (whichever is higher) of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (ii) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with such refinancing and (z) the Dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency and Incurred pursuant to this Agreement or the First Lien Credit Agreement or the Second Lien Credit Agreement shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on, at the Parent Borrower’s option, (i) the Closing Date, (ii) any date on which any of the respective commitments under this Agreement or the First Lien Credit Agreement or the Second Lien Credit Agreement shall be reallocated between or among facilities or subfacilities hereunder or thereunder, or on which such rate is otherwise calculated for any purpose thereunder, or (iii) the date of such Incurrence. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing.

173

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 requirements of subsection 8.12, 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.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Agents and the Other Representatives shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except, in the case of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Issuing Lender, those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Agents or the Other Representatives.

(b) Each of the Agents may perform any of their respective duties under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein or therein by or through its respective officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates,

or delegate any and all such rights and powers to, any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent (it being understood and agreed, for avoidance of doubt and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may perform any of their respective duties under the Security Documents by or through one or more of their respective affiliates). Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 10 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent.

(c) Except for subsections 10.5, and (to the extent of the Borrowers’ rights thereunder and the conditions included therein) 10.9, the provisions of this Section 10 are solely for the benefit of the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, and no Borrower or any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

10.2 The Administrative Agent and Affiliates. Each person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include each person serving as an Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such person and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with Holding, the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such person were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

10.3 Action by Agent. In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, (a) each Agent shall act solely as an agent for the Lenders and, as applicable, the other secured parties, and (b) no Agent assumes any (and shall not be deemed to have assumed any) relationship of agency or trust with or for any Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries of the Parent Borrower. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact (including the Collateral Agent in the case of the Administrative Agent), and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact or counsel selected by it with reasonable care.

10.4 Exculpatory Provisions.

(a) No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent:

(i) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated

175

hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that such Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its judgment or the judgment of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Requirement of Law; and

(iii) shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrowers or any of their Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the person serving as such Agent or any of its affiliates in any capacity.

(b) No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (x) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in subsection 9.1 or subsection 11.1, as applicable) or (y) in the absence of its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default is given to such Agent by a Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Lender.

(c) No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Security Documents or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 6 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term as used merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

10.5 Acknowledgement and Representation by Lenders. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender expressly acknowledges that none of the Agents or the Other Representatives nor any of their officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent or any Other Representative hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Borrower or any other Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by such Agent or such Other Representative to any Lender. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender further represents and warrants to the Agents, the Other Representatives and each of the Loan Parties that it has had the opportunity to review the Confidential Information Memorandum and each other document made available to it on the Approved Electronic Platform in connection with this Agreement and has acknowledged and accepted the terms and conditions applicable to the recipients thereof. Each Lender and each

176

Issuing Lender represents to the Agents, the Other Representatives and each of the Loan Parties that, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, the Other Representatives or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, it has made and will make, its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties, it has made its own decision to make its Loans or issue Letters of Credit hereunder and enter into this Agreement and it will make its own decisions in taking or not taking any action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, neither the Agents nor any Other Representative shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender represents to each other party hereto that (i) it is a bank, savings and loan association or other similar savings institution, insurance company, investment fund or company or other financial institution which makes or acquires commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and that it is participating hereunder as a Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, for such commercial purposes and (ii) it has the knowledge and experience to be and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of being a Lender and/or Issuing Lender hereunder. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender acknowledges and agrees to comply with the provisions of subsection 10.6 applicable to the Lenders and each Issuing Lender hereunder. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent may use an outside service provider for the tracking of all UCC financing statements required to be filed pursuant to the Loan Documents and notification to the Administrative Agent, of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or expiration thereof, and that any such service provider will be deemed to be acting at the request and on behalf of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by any such service provider

10.6 Indemnity; Reimbursement by Lenders.

(a) To the extent that the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection 11.5 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lenders or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay ratably according to their respective Commitment Percentages on the date on which the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought under this subsection 10.6 (or, if the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their Commitment Percentages, immediately prior to such date) such unpaid amount (such indemnity shall be effective whether or not the related losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses are incurred or asserted by any party hereto or any third party); provided that (i) the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lenders in their capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lenders in connection with such capacity and (ii) such indemnity for the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lenders shall not include losses incurred by the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lenders due to

177

one or more Lenders defaulting in their obligations to purchase participations of Swingline Exposure under subsections 2.4(c) and 2.4(d) or L/C Obligations under subsection 3.4 (it being understood that the proviso shall not affect the Swingline Lender’s or any Issuing Lender’s rights against any Defaulting Lender). The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection 10.6 are subject to the provisions of subsection 4.8.

(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.

(c) All amounts due under this subsection 10.6 shall be payable not later than three Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this subsection 10.6 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

10.7 Right to Request and Act on Instructions.

(a) Each Agent may at any time request instructions from the Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents an Agent is permitted or desires to take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, the requesting Agent shall be absolutely entitled as between itself and the Lenders to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Lender for refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it shall have received such instructions from Required Lenders or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of an Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders or Supermajority Lenders (or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement) and, notwithstanding the instructions of the Required Lenders or Supermajority Lenders (or such other applicable portion of the Lenders), an Agent shall have no obligation to any Lender to take any action if it believes, in good faith, that such action would violate applicable law or exposes an Agent to any liability for which it has not received satisfactory indemnification in accordance with the provisions of subsection 10.6.

(b) Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such Issuing Lender prior

178

to the making of such Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall be entitled to rely upon the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with such advice.

10.8 Swingline Lender. The provisions of this Section 10 shall apply to the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such to the same extent that such provisions apply to the Administrative Agent.

10.9 Collateral Matters.

(a) Each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into (x) the Security Documents, the ABL/Term Loan 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, the ABL/Term Loan 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 the Incurrence thereof, the creation of such Lien and such priority is permitted by the Loan Documents) and (z) any Lender Joinder Agreement as provided in subsection 2.6 and any amendments provided for under subsections 2.6 and 2.8 respectively. Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note or participant in 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, the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement, any Intercreditor Agreement Supplement, any Lender Joinder Agreement, any agreement required in connection with an Incremental Facility pursuant to subsection 2.6, and any agreement required in connection with an Extension Offer pursuant to subsection 2.8 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

179

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.

(b) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, in each case at its option and in its discretion, to (A) 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 subsection 8.4, (iii) owned by any Subsidiary Guarantor which becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the 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 subsection 11.1); (v) as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant Security Documents or (vi) to the extent required pursuant to the terms of any intercreditor agreement (including the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement); (B) enter into any intercreditor agreement (including the ABL/Term Loan 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; (C) at the written request of the Parent Borrower to subordinate any Lien on any Excluded Assets (or to confirm in writing the absence of any Lien thereon) or any other property granted to or held by such Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien (other than Permitted Liens securing the Obligations under the Loan Documents or that are required by the express terms of this Agreement to be pari passu with or junior to the Liens on the Collateral securing the First Lien Loan Document Obligations pursuant to the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement or an Other Intercreditor Agreement) and (D) to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its Obligations under any Loan Documents to which it is a party if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary. 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 subsection 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 subsection 11.17. Upon request by any Agent, at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s and the Collateral Agent’s authority under this subsection 10.9(c).

(d) No Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Parent Borrower 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

180

any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Agents in this subsection 10.9 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed 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 (if any) 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 either subsection 11.1 or 11.17, as applicable, 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 and the Collateral Agent may resign as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, respectively, upon 10 days’ notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Parent Borrower and if the Administrative Agent has admitted in writing that it is insolvent or becomes a Defaulting Lender, either the Required Lenders or the Parent Borrower may, upon 10 days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, 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 shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be subject to approval by the Parent Borrower (provided that such approval by the Parent Borrower in connection with the appointment of any successor Administrative Agent shall only be required so long as no Event of Default under subsection 9.1(a) or (f) has occurred and is continuing; provided further, that the Parent Borrower shall not unreasonably withhold its approval of any successor Administrative Agent if such successor is a commercial bank with a consolidated combined capital and surplus of at least $5,000,000,000) 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 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. 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 any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal as such Agent, the provisions of this subsection 10.10 and subsection 11.5 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 the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding provisions of this subsection 10.10, the resigning or removed Administrative Agent (x) 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 and (y) shall not be required to act as Swingline Lender with respect to

181

Swingline Loans to be made after the date of such resignation or removal (and all outstanding Swingline Loans of such resigning or removed Administrative Agent shall be required to be repaid in full upon its resignation or removal), although the resigning Administrative Agent shall retain all rights hereunder as Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender with respect to all Letters of Credit issued by it and all Swing Line Loans made by it, prior to the effectiveness of its resignation or removal as Administrative Agent hereunder.

10.11 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender or any Issuing Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender or any Issuing Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender or any Issuing Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective), such Lender or any Issuing Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Parent Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Parent Borrower to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any interest, additions to tax or penalties thereto, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses. The agreements in this subsection 10.11 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, and assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender or any Issuing Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

10.12 Other Representatives. None 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. Without limiting the foregoing, no Other Representative shall have nor be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender.

10.13 Appointment of Borrower Representatives. Each Borrower hereby designates the Parent Borrower as its Borrower Representative. The Borrower Representative will be acting as agent on each of the Borrowers behalf for the purposes of issuing notices of Borrowing and notices of conversion/continuation of any Loans pursuant to subsection 4.2 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 Borrower Representative hereby accepts such appointment. Each Borrower agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty, covenant, agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by the Borrower Representative 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.

10.14 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claims. In case of the pendency of any bankruptcy proceeding or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the

182

Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) is hereby authorized by the Lenders, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and/or Issuing Lender, and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders or any Issuing Lender, and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and/or Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent under subsections 4.5 and 11.5) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and/or Issuing Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and/or Issuing Lender, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under subsections 4.5 and 11.5.

10.15 Application of Proceeds. The Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent agree, as among such parties, as follows: subject to the terms of the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement or 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 applied as follows: first, to pay interest on and then principal of Agent Advances then outstanding, second, to pay interest on and then principal of Swingline Loans then outstanding, third, to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent provided herein) due and owing hereunder of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent 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), fourth, to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent provided herein) due and owing hereunder of each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing such Lender’s rights under the Loan Documents, fifth, to pay interest on Revolving Credit Loans and L/C Obligations then outstanding, sixth, to pay (on a ratable basis) (A) principal of Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding and any Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding, and to cash collateralize any outstanding L/C Obligations on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (B) any outstanding obligations payable under (i) Designated Cash Management

183

Agreements, up to the maximum amount of the exposure thereunder as notified from time to time by the Cash Management Party to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the definition of “Cash Management Reserves” (but in any event not to exceed the Cash Management Reserves) and (ii) Designated Hedging Agreements up to the maximum amount of the MTM value thereunder as notified from time to time by the Hedging Party (or, if applicable, an alternative MTM value notified by the Parent Borrower pursuant to a Dealer Polling) to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the definition of “Designated Hedging Reserves”, in each case which are secured under the Security Documents (but in any event not to exceed the Designated Hedging Reserves), seventh, to pay obligations under Cash Management Arrangements (other than pursuant to any Designated Cash Management Agreements, but including any amounts not paid pursuant to clause “sixth”(B)(i) above) and Hedging Obligations to any Hedging Affiliate (other than pursuant to any Designated Hedging Agreements, but including any amounts not paid pursuant to clause “sixth”(B)(ii) above) and eighth, 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” and “sixth” 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 type described in such clause “fifth” and “sixth”. To the extent that any amounts available for distribution pursuant to clause “fifth” or “sixth” above are insufficient to pay all obligations described therein in full, such moneys shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders and Issuing Lenders based on their respective Commitment Percentages. This subsection 10.15 may be amended (and the Lenders and Issuing 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 subsections 2.6 and 2.8, 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.

10.16 Approved Electronic Communications. Each of the Lenders, Issuing Lenders and the Loan Parties agree, that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Approved Electronic Communications available to the Lenders by posting such Approved Electronic Communications on IntraLinks™ or a substantially similar electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”). The Approved Electronic Communications and the Approved Electronic Platform are provided (subject to subsection 11.16) “as is” and “as available.”

Each of the Lenders and (subject to subsection 11.16) each of the Loan Parties agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Approved Electronic Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally-applicable document retention procedures and policies.

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.

To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, neither the Parent Borrower nor any Indemnitee shall be liable for any indirect special, consequential or punitive damages in

192

connection with the Facilities provided that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Parent Borrower’s indemnity or reimbursement obligations under this subsection 11.5 to the extent such indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder. All amounts due under this subsection 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 subsection 11.5 shall be submitted to the address of the Parent Borrower set forth in subsection 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.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any affiliate of the applicable Issuing Lender that issues a Letter of Credit), except that (i) other than in accordance with subsection 8.3, the Parent Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Parent Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with subsection 4.13(d), 11.1(g) or this subsection 11.6.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in subsection 11.6(b)(ii) below, any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may, in accordance with applicable law, assign (other than to Disqualified Lenders (to the extent the list of Disqualified Lenders has been made available to all Lenders) or any natural person) to one or more assignees (each, an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including its Commitments and/or Loans), pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(A) the Parent Borrower, provided that no consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required for an assignment to (x) a Lender~~, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund~~ or (y) if an Event of Default under subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) (with respect to the Parent Borrower) has occurred and is continuing, any other Person; 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, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower thereof and the Borrower’s prior written consent shall be required for such assignment; provided, further, that the Parent Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment by a Lender unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after

193

having received written notice of such request for assignment from such Lender or the Administrative Agent; and

(B) the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans under any Facility, the amount of Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5.0 million, unless the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Parent Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under subsection 9.1(a) or (f) (with respect to the Parent Borrower) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

(B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (unless waived by the Administrative Agent in any given case);

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

(D) no Commitment or Loan may be assigned byto any Affiliate of the Parent Borrower.

(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) subsections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15 and 11.5, and bound by its continuing obligations under subsection 11.16 and, in the case of each Reference Bank, subsection 4.6(c)). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 11.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this subsection.

194

(iv) The Borrowers hereby collectively designate the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent agrees, to serve as the Borrowers’ non-fiduciary agent, solely for purposes of this subsection 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 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 Lender 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 Lender (and, solely with respect to entries applicable to such Lender, any Lender), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any prospective assignee is a Disqualified Lender.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee (unless such assignment is being made in accordance with subsection 4.13(d) or subsection 11.1(g), in which case the effectiveness of such Assignment and Acceptance shall not require execution by assigning Lender), the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in this subsection 11.6(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by this subsection 11.6(b), 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.

(vi) On or prior to the effective date of any assignment pursuant to this subsection 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 Borrower marked “cancelled.”

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this subsection 11.6(b) or any other provision of this Agreement, if the Parent Borrower shall have consented thereto in writing (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to effectuate assignments of Loans, Commitments and Incremental Revolving Commitments via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower as designated in writing from time to time to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent (the “Settlement Service”). At any time when the Administrative Agent elects, in its sole discretion, to implement such Settlement Service, each such assignment shall be effected by the assigning Lender and proposed Assignee pursuant to the procedures then in effect under the Settlement Service, which procedures shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Parent Borrower and shall be consistent with the other provisions of this subsection 11.6(b). Each assigning Lender and proposed Assignee shall comply with the requirements of the Settlement

195

Service in connection with effecting any assignment of Loans, Commitments and Incremental Revolving Commitments pursuant to the Settlement Service. Assignments and assumptions of the Loans and Commitments shall be effected by the provisions otherwise set forth herein until the Administrative Agent notifies the Lenders of the Settlement Service as set forth herein. The Parent Borrower may withdraw its consent to the use of the Settlement Service at any time upon at least 10 Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, and thereafter assignments and assumptions of the Loans, Commitments and Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be effected by the provisions otherwise set forth herein.

Furthermore, no Assignee, which as of the date of any assignment to it pursuant to this subsection 11.6(b) would be entitled to receive any greater payment under subsection 4.10, 4.11 or 11.5 than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive as of such date under such subsections 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 subsection 9.1(a) or (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) (i) Any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may in accordance with applicable law, without the consent of the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations (other than, to the extent the list of Disqualified Lenders has been made available to all Lenders, to a Disqualified Lender or to a natural person or to an Affiliate of the Parent Borrower) to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments, Incremental 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 Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement 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 affected thereby pursuant to clause (i) or (iii) of the second proviso to the second sentence of subsection 11.1(a) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(iii) of this subsection 11.6, the Parent Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of (and shall have the related obligations under) subsections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15 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 subsection 11.6. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of subsection 11.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant shall be subject to subsection 11.7(a) as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the list of Disqualified Lenders has been made available to all Lenders, no Lender shall be permitted to sell participations under this Agreement to any Disqualified Lender and any such participation shall be void ab initio, except

196

to the extent the Parent Borrower has consented to such participation in writing (in which case such Lender will not be considered a Disqualified Lender solely for that particular participation). Any attempted participation which does not comply with this subsection 11.6 shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Loan Party and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, the compliance of any Lender with the requirements of this subsection 11.6(c) (it being understood that each Lender shall be responsible for or have any liability for, ensuring its own compliance with the requirements of this subsection 11.6(c)). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent 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 (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to, or the restrictions on any exercise of rights or remedies of, any Disqualified Lender.

(ii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Parent Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and related interest amount) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans 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 the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary in connection with a Tax audit, Tax proceeding or any other governmental inquiry to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender 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.

(iii) No Loan Party shall be obligated to make any greater payment under subsection 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. No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of subsection 4.11 to the extent such Participant fails to comply with subsection 4.11(b) and/or (c) or to provide the forms and certificates referenced therein to the Lender that granted such participation and such failure increases the obligation of the Borrower under subsection 4.11.

(iv) Subject to paragraph (c)(iii), any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may also sell participations on terms other than the terms set forth in paragraph (c)(i) above, provided such participations are on terms and to Participants satisfactory to the Parent

197

Borrower and the Parent Borrower has consented to such terms and Participants in writing.

For the purposes of this subsection 11.6, the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning: 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, except to the extent the Borrower has consented to such assignment in writing (in which case such Lender will not be considered a Disqualified Lender solely for that particular assignment).

(d) 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 or other similar central bank, and this subsection 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.

(e) 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 the Parent 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 to determine whether any such filing or qualification is required or whether any assignment or participation is otherwise in accordance with applicable law; provided that any such request shall be made solely for the foregoing purposes and not for the purpose of identifying the name of any Participant.

(f) 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 subsection 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 the Borrower pursuant to this subsection 11.6(f) 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

198

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 subsection 11.6(f), in the event that the indemnifying Lender fails timely to compensate the Parent 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.

(g) 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 may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) advance notice to the Lenders of such Facility or Tranche, as applicable, 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 subsection 11.1. Pursuant to any such assignment, (x) all Loans to be replaced shall be purchased at par plus any premium that would be payable if such Loans were being optionally prepaid by the Borrower (in each case allocated among the Lenders of such Facility or Tranche in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid), accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to subsection 4.12 and (y) all Commitments to be replaced shall be allocated among the Lenders under such Facility in the same manner as would be required if such Commitments were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrowers, accompanied by payment of any accrued fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to subsection 4.12. By receiving such purchase price, the Lenders of such Facility or Tranche, as applicable, 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 G, 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.

(h) [Reserved.]

(i) [Reserved.]

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

(k) (i) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, if any Lender or Participant at any time is a Disqualified Lender, then for so long as such Lender or Participant shall be a Disqualified Lender, the provisions of this subsection 11.6(k) shall apply with respect to such Disqualified Lender unless the Parent Borrower shall have otherwise expressly consented in writing in its sole discretion (and regardless of whether the Parent Borrower shall have consented to any assignment or participation to such Lender or Participant).

199

(ii) No Disqualified Lender shall have any right to approve, disapprove or consent to any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any term hereof or thereof. In determining whether the requisite Lender or Lenders have consented to any such amendment, supplement, waiver or modification, and in determining the Required Lenders and Supermajority Lenders for any purpose under or in respect of any Loan Document, any Lender that is a Disqualified Lender (and the Loans, Commitments, and/or interests in L/C Obligations of such Disqualified Lender) shall be excluded and disregarded. Each such amendment, supplement, waiver or modification shall be binding and effective as to each Disqualified Lender.

(iii) The Parent Borrower shall have the right (A) at the sole expense of any Lender that is a Disqualified Lender and/or the Person that assigned its Commitments and/or Loans to such Disqualified Lender (provided that no such expense shall be required from the Person that assigned its Commitments and/or Loans to a Disqualified Lender unless such assignee Disqualified Lender was a Disqualified Lender at the time of such assignment and the list of Disqualified Lenders was available to all Lenders at such time), to seek to replace or terminate such Disqualified Lender as a Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign any or all of its Commitments and/or Loans and its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees; provided that (1) the Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation to the Parent Borrower to find such a replacement Lender, (2) the Parent Borrower shall not have any obligation to such Disqualified Lender or any other Person to find such a replacement Lender or accept or consent to any such assignment to itself or any other Person and (3) the assignee (or, at its option, the Borrower) shall pay to such Disqualified Lender concurrently with such assignment an amount (which payment shall be deemed payment in full) equal to the lesser of (x) the face principal amount of the Loans so assigned and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Lender paid to acquire such Commitments and/or Loans, in each case without interest thereon (it being understood that if the effective date of such assignment is not an Interest Payment Date, such assignee shall be entitled to be receive on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date interest on the principal amount of the Loans so assigned that has accrued and is unpaid from the Interest Payment Date last preceding such effective date (except as may be otherwise agreed between such assignee and the Borrower)) or (B) to prepay any Loans held by such Disqualified Lender, in whole or in part, by paying an amount (which payment shall be deemed payment in full) equal to the lesser of (x) the face principal amount of the Loans so prepaid and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Lender paid to acquire such Loans, and if applicable, terminate the Commitments of such Disqualified Lender, in whole or in part. In connection with any such replacement, (1) if the Disqualified Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary or appropriate (in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent or the Parent Borrower, which determination shall be conclusive) 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 the Disqualified Lender shall be paid by the assignee Lender (or, at its option, the Borrower) the amount required pursuant to this subsection 11.6(k)(iii)(B), then such

200

Disqualified 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 Disqualified Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register, (2) each Lender (whether or not then a party hereto) agrees to disclose to the Parent Borrower the amount that the applicable Disqualified Lender paid to acquire Commitments and/or Loans from such Lender and (3) each Lender that is a Disqualified Lender agrees to disclose to the Parent Borrower the amount it paid to acquire the Commitments and/or Loans held by it.

(iv) No Disqualified Lender (whether as a Lender, a Participant or otherwise) shall have any right to (A) receive any information or material made available to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (B) have access to any Internet or intranet website to which any of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party or other website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or otherwise), (C) attend (including by telephone) or otherwise participate in any meeting or discussions (or portions thereof) among or with the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders, (D) receive any information or material prepared by the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders or (E) receive advice of counsel to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender or challenge their attorney client privilege. Any Disqualified Lender shall not solicit or seek to obtain any such information or material. If at any time any Disqualified Lender receives or possesses any such information or material, such Disqualified Lender shall (1) notify the Parent Borrower as soon as possible that such information or material has become known to it or came into its possession, (2) immediately return to the Parent Borrower or, at the option of the Parent Borrower, destroy (and confirm to the Parent Borrower such destruction) such information or material, together with any notes, analyses, compilations, forecasts, studies or other documents related thereto which it or its advisors prepared and (3) keep such information or material confidential and shall not utilize such information or material for any purpose. Each Lender (whether or not then a party hereto) agrees to notify the Parent Borrower as soon as possible if it becomes aware that (x) it made an assignment to or has a participation with a Disqualified Lender or (y) any such Disqualified Lender has received any such information of materials.

(v) The rights and remedies of the Parent Borrower provided herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights and remedies provided to the Parent Borrower at law or in equity, and the Parent Borrower shall be entitled to pursue any remedy available to it against any Lender that has (or has purported to have) made an assignment or sold or maintained a participation to or with a Disqualified Lender or against any Disqualified Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent 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. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or participant or prospective Lender or participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any

201

liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to, or the restrictions on any exercise of rights or remedies of, any Disqualified Lender.

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 Obligations 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 subsection 8.1(f), or otherwise (except pursuant to subsection 2.6, 2.8, 4.4, 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13(d), 11.1(g) 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 Obligations 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 Reimbursement Obligations, 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 Borrowers, any such notice being expressly waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under subsection 9.1(a) to set off and appropriate and apply against any amount then due and payable under subsection 9.1(a) by such Borrowers any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), 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 subsection 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

202

such conversion is made pursuant to this subsection 11.8 being hereinafter in this subsection 11.8 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

(b) If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in subsection 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 subsection 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 subsection 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 by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of such counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be delivered to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

11.10 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

11.11 Integration. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Fee Letter represent the entire agreement of each of the Loan Parties party hereto, the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any of the Loan Parties party hereto, the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein, in the other Loan Documents or in the Fee Letter.

11.12 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY NOTES AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

11.13 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

11.21 Joint and Several Liability; Postponement of Subrogation. (a) The obligations of the Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be joint and several and, as such, each Borrower shall be liable for all of such obligations of the other Borrowers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. To the fullest extent permitted by law the liability of each Borrower for the obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents of the other applicable Borrowers with whom it has joint and several liability shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, without regard to (i) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the obligations hereunder or thereunder or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by any applicable Secured Party, (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance hereunder; provided that no Borrower hereby waives any suit for breach of a contractual provision of any of the Loan Documents) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by such other applicable Borrower or any other Person against any Secured Party or (iii) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of such other applicable Borrower or such Borrower) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of such other applicable Borrower for the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or of such Borrower under this subsection 11.21, in bankruptcy or in any other instance.

(b) Each Borrower agrees that it will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of rights of subrogation under this Agreement, by any payments made hereunder or otherwise, until the prior payment in full in cash of all of the obligations hereunder and under any other Loan Document, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the permanent termination of all Commitments. Any amount paid to any Borrower on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the payment in full in cash of all of the obligations hereunder and under any other Loan Document, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the permanent termination of all Commitments shall be held in trust for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties and shall immediately be paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the applicable Secured Parties and credited and applied against the obligations of the applicable Borrowers, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent shall elect. In furtherance of the foregoing, for so long as any obligations of the Borrowers hereunder, any Letters of Credit or any Commitments remain outstanding, each Borrower shall refrain from taking any action or commencing any proceeding against any other Borrower (or any of its successors or assigns, whether in connection with a bankruptcy proceeding or otherwise) to recover any amounts in respect of payments made in respect of the obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document of such other Borrower to any Secured Party.

11.22 Designated Cash Management Agreements and Designated Hedging Agreements. (a) Subject to no continuing Specified Default, the Borrower Representative may from time to time elect by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent that (x) a Cash Management Arrangement is to be a “Designated Cash Management Agreement” and that the monetary obligations thereunder be treated as pari passu with the Obligations with respect to the priority of payment of proceeds of the Collateral in accordance with the waterfall provisions set forth in subsection 10.15, or (y) a Hedging Agreement is to be a “Designated Hedging Agreement” and that

208

the monetary obligations thereunder be treated as pari passu with the Obligations with respect to the priority of payment of proceeds of the Collateral in accordance with the waterfall provisions set forth in subsection 10.15, provided that no Designated Cash Management Agreement or Designated Hedging Agreement can be secured at the same time on a first lien basis by the Term Loan Priority Collateral (and any request under this subsection 11.22 will be deemed to be a representation by the Parent Borrower to such effect), and provided, further, that no monetary obligations under any Designated Cash Management Agreement or Designated Hedging Agreement shall receive any benefit of the designation under this subsection 11.22 after the Discharge of ABL Obligations (as defined in the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement). Any such designation notice shall include the information required under the definition of “Cash Management Reserves” or “Designated Hedging Reserves”, as applicable.

(b) Notwithstanding any such designation of a Cash Management Arrangement as a Designated Cash Management Agreement or a Hedging Agreement as a Designated Hedging Agreement, no provider or holder of any such Designated Cash Management Agreement or Designated Hedging Agreement shall have any voting or approval rights hereunder (or be deemed a Lender) solely by virtue of its status as the provider under such agreements, nor shall their consent be required (other than in their capacities as a Lender to the extent applicable) for any matter hereunder or under any of the other ABL Loan Documents, including, without limitation, as to any matter relating to the Collateral or the release of the Collateral or any Subsidiary Guarantors.

(c) The Administrative Agent accepts no responsibility and shall have no liability for the calculation of the exposure owing by the Loan Parties under any such Designated Cash Management Agreement or Designated Hedging Agreement, and shall be entitled in all cases to rely on the applicable Cash Management Party, Hedging Party or the Parent Borrower (in the case of any Dealer Polling), as the case may be, in each case party to such agreement for the calculation thereof.

11.23 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA 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 EEA 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 an EEA 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 an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA 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 EEA Financial Institution, its parent

209

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 any EEA Resolution Authority.

11.24 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging 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.

(b) As used in this subsection 11.24, the following terms have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

210

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

(ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or

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

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).
