If the Borrower has made an LCA Election, then in connection with any calculation of any financial ratio or basket availability following such LCA Test Time and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or the definitive agreement with respect thereto is terminated, any such financial ratio or test or cap shall be calculated (and tested) (x) on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other Subject Transactions in connection therewith have been consummated and (y) additionally, solely for purposes of calculating a financial ratio or basket availability under Section 7.6, on a standalone basis without giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and the other Subject Transactions in connection therewith.

(d) For purposes of determining the permissibility of any action, change, transaction or event that requires a calculation of any financial ratio or test (including any First Lien Leverage Ratio test, any Total Leverage Ratio test and/or the amount of Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets), such financial ratio or test shall be calculated at the time (subject to clause (c) above) such action is taken, such change is made, such transaction is consummated or such event occurs, as the case may be, and no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of a change in such financial ratio or test occurring after the time such action is taken, such change is made, such transaction is consummated or such event occurs, as the case may be.

(a) If any payment hereunder (other than payments on Eurodollar Loans or as otherwise expressly provided herein) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day 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.

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

(e) Any Lender may request that the Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I.

In the event that the Borrower does not specify the order in which to apply prepayments to reduce Repayment Amounts or as between Classes of Term Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected that such proceeds be applied to reduce the installments in direct order of maturity on a pro-rata basis among Term Loan Classes.

(a) If any Indebtedness (including Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt, but excluding any other Indebtedness permitted to be incurred in accordance with Section 7.2) shall be incurred by a Group Member, the Borrower shall pay an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Indebtedness within three Business Days of the date of receipt thereof to the Administrative Agent to be applied to the Term Loans in accordance with clause (g) of this Section 2.12.

(d) The Borrower shall immediately prepay the Revolving Loans to the extent necessary so that the Revolving Extensions of Credit of all Lenders shall not at any time exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect. To the extent that after such prepayments, the Revolving Extensions of Credit of all Lenders exceed the Revolving Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize outstanding L/C Obligations to eliminate such excess.

(e) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Obligations required to be made pursuant to clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 2.12 (including the amount of such prepayment so required) by 11:00 A.M. at least three (3) Business Days on the date of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of the contents of the Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such applicable Lender’s pro rata share of the prepayment. Each appropriate Lender may reject all (but not a portion) of its share of any mandatory prepayment made pursuant to clauses (a), (b) and (c) (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) of Term Loans by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day after the date of such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment. Each Rejection Notice from a given Lender shall specify the principal amount of the mandatory prepayment of Term Loans to be rejected by such Lender. If a Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory repayment of Term Loans. Any Declined Proceeds shall be retained by the Borrower (“Retained Declined Proceeds”).

(f) If, at any time the Borrower would be required to prepay the Term Loans pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above, the Borrower is required to offer to prepay or repurchase any Incremental Equivalent Debt or Credit Agreement Refinancing Debt (other than any Credit Agreement Refinancing Term Loans) that is pari passu with the Term Loans in right of payment and with respect to security pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Indebtedness in connection with the circumstances described in clause (b) or (c), as applicable (such Indebtedness, the “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then the Borrower may apply the amounts required to be prepaid or used to repurchase on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and the Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time; provided that the portion of such prepayment allocated to any Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount required to be allocated to such Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, shall be allocated to the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans and the prepayment or repurchase of the Other Applicable Indebtedness, and the amount of the prepayment of the Term Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to such clause (b) or (c) shall be reduced accordingly; provided that, to the extent the holders thereof decline to have such Other Applicable Indebtedness prepaid or repurchased, the declined amount shall promptly be applied to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

(g) Except as otherwise provided in any Incremental Agreement, any Extension Agreement or any Refinancing Agreement for less than ratable prepayment of any Incremental Term Facility, Extended Term Facility or Credit Agreement Refinancing Facility, each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to clauses (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 2.12 shall be applied ratably to each Class of Term Loans then outstanding (provided that any prepayment of Term Loans with the Net Cash Proceeds of any Permitted Refinancing Debt and/or any Incremental Term Facility incurred for the purpose of

refinancing or replacing such Term Loans shall be applied to the applicable Class of Term Loans being refinanced or replaced). With respect to each Class of Term Loans, all prepayments accepted under this Section 2.12 shall be applied against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of such Class of Term Loans as directed by the Borrower (or, in the absence of direction from the Borrower, to the remaining scheduled amortization payments in respect of such Class of Term Loans in direct order of maturity), and each such prepayment shall be paid to the Term Lenders of such Class pro rata according to the respective amounts due to such Term Lenders. The amount of such mandatory prepayments shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or Eurodollar Rate Loans; provided that if no Lenders exercise the right to waive a given mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(e), then, such mandatory prepayment shall be applied first to the then outstanding Term Loans that are ABR Loans and then to the then outstanding Term Loans that are Eurodollar Loans in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.21.

(h) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.12, to the extent that (i) any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale by a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign Disposition”), the Net Cash Proceeds of any Recovery Event from a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign Recovery Event”), or Excess Cash Flow is prohibited or delayed by applicable local Law from being repatriated to the United States (the Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary (and, if applicable, its parent entities) to use commercially reasonable efforts to take actions required by the applicable local Law to permit such repatriation) or (ii) the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition, any Foreign Recovery Event or Excess Cash Flow would have a material adverse tax cost consequence with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to prepay Term Loans; provided that if and to the extent any such repatriation ceases to be prohibited or delayed by the applicable local Law or such material adverse tax cost consequence ceases to exist, in each case, at any time during the one (1) year period immediately following the date the related prepayment under this Section 2.12 was required to be made, such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than five (5) Business Days after such repatriation) be offered to be applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12 to the extent provided herein.

2.13 Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior notice substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto of such election no later than 11:00 A.M. on the third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date; provided that if any Eurodollar Loan is so converted on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.21. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent prior irrevocable notice substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2 hereto of such election no later than 11:00 A.M. on the third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor); provided that no ABR Loan under a particular Facility may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing to the extent the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

(b) Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such by the Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1 and no later than 11:00 A.M. on the third Business Day

preceding the proposed continuation date, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans; provided that if any Eurodollar Loan is so continued on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.21 and; provided, further, that no Eurodollar Loan denominated in Dollars under a particular Facility may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing to the extent the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower; provided, further, that (x) if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period and (y) if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph, such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

2.14 Minimum Amounts and Maximum Number of Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions, continuations and optional prepayments of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of Eurodollar Loans comprising each tranche of Eurodollar Loans shall be equal to a minimum of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than eight tranches of Eurodollar Loans shall be outstanding at any one time (it being understood that such number may be increased at any time at the Administrative Agent’s discretion).

2.15 Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, at any time when an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) exists with respect to any principal, interest or fees, to the extent the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay interest on the applicable past due amounts hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(d) Subject to Section 2.15(c), interest shall be payable by the Borrower in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.

(e) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements delivered pursuant to Sections 6.1(a) or (b), (x) the First Lien Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (y) a proper calculation of the First Lien Leverage Ratio would have resulted in a different Applicable Margin, Applicable Commitment Fee Rate or Excess Cash Flow Percentage for any period then: (i) if the proper calculation of the First Lien Leverage Ratio would have resulted in a higher Applicable Margin, Applicable Commitment Fee Rate or Excess Cash Flow Percentage for such period, the Borrower shall automatically and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent, an amount equal to the excess of the amount that should have been paid for such period over the amount actually paid for such period (and no Default or Event of Default shall have been deemed to occur solely as a result of such underpayment upon payment of such additional amounts) and (ii) if the proper calculation of the First Lien Leverage Ratio would have resulted in a lower Applicable Margin, Applicable Commitment Fee Rate or Excess Cash Flow Percentage for such period, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to repay any amount to the Borrower.

2.16 Computations of Interest and Fees. (a) All computations of interest and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days and, in the case of ABR Loans 365/366 days, in each case, for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable. Each determination of an interest rate or the amount of a fee hereunder shall be made by the Administrative Agent (including determinations of a Eurodollar Rate or ABR in accordance with the definitions of “Eurodollar Rate” and “ABR”, respectively) and shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate or fee pursuant to Section 2.15(a) and Section 2.15(b).

2.17 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Loan:

(a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or

(b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility that by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall give email or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period with respect thereto, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent (which action the Administrative Agent will take promptly after the conditions giving rise to such notice no longer exist), no further Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurodollar Loans.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a pending request for a Eurodollar Loan as to which the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (a) of the first sentence of this Section, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Borrower and the relevant Lenders, may establish an alternative interest rate that reflects the all-in-cost of funds to the Lenders for funding Loans in the applicable currency and amount, and with the same Interest Period as the Eurodollar Loan

requested to be made, converted or continued, as the case may be (the “Impacted Loans”), in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (x) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (a) of the first sentence of this Section, (y) the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (z) any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the Borrower written notice thereof.

2.18 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each payment (excluding voluntary and mandatory prepayments which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.11 and Section 2.12(g), respectively) in respect of principal, interest or fees in respect of Term Loans shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to such Class of Term Lenders, pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to such Class of Term Lenders. Amounts repaid or prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed. Principal prepayments (other than voluntary and mandatory prepayments which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.11 and Section 2.12(g), respectively) of the Term Loans shall be applied to reduce the installments thereof in direct order of maturity.

(b) Except as otherwise provided herein, each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee and any reduction of a Class of Revolving Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Revolving Percentages of the relevant Lenders. Except as otherwise provided herein, each payment (including prepayments) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on any Class of Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders with respect to such Classes. Each payment in respect of Reimbursement Obligations in respect of any Letter of Credit shall be made to the Issuing Lender that issued such Letter of Credit.

(c) Payments. The Borrower shall make each payment (other than Issuing Lender fronting fees which shall be paid directly to the Issuing Bank) under any Loan Document not later than 2:00 P.M. on the day when due to the Administrative Agent by wire transfer to an account or by such other means to such other address as Administrative Agent shall have notified the Borrower in writing within a reasonable time prior to such payment in immediately available Dollars and without setoff (except as provided in Section 2.20) or counterclaim. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 P.M. shall be deemed received on the next Business Day (in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) and any applicable interest shall continue to accrue. The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender any payments received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender.

(d) Advancing Payments.

(i) 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 Borrower 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 greater of (i) the Overnight Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, 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 paragraph shall be presumptively correct 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 after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall give notice of such fact to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower against any Defaulting Lender. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such borrowing.

(ii) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each relevant Lender to which any amount was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Overnight Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.

(e) Prepayment Premium. In the event that, prior to the six month anniversary of the Closing Date, a Repricing Transaction occurs, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Term Lenders, (x) in the case of a Repricing Transaction described in clause (a) of the definition thereof, a prepayment premium of 1.00% of the amount of the Initial Term Loans being prepaid in connection with such Repricing Transaction and (y) in the case of a Repricing Transaction described in clause (b) of the definition thereof, an amount equal to 1.00% of the aggregate amount of the applicable Initial Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment that are subject to an effective pricing reduction pursuant to such Repricing Transaction. Any payment required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to this clause (e) shall be made on the same date as the prepayment, repayment, refinancing or repricing giving rise to requirement for payment to be made under this clause (e) occurs.

(f) Application of Payments During an Event of Default. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and notice thereof to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or the Required Lenders, all payments received on account of the Secured Obligations shall, subject to Sections 2.26 and 2.27, be applied by the Administrative Agent as follows:

first, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts payable to the Agents in their capacities as such;

second, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, reimbursement obligations in respect of drawings under Letters of Credit, interest and Letters of Credit fees) payable to the Lenders (including fees and disbursements and other charges of counsel) arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause second payable to them;

third, to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letters of Credit fees, interest on the Loans and interest on unreimbursed borrowings under Letters of Credit, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause third payable to them;

fourth, (A) to payment of that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, unreimbursed borrowings under Letters of Credit and amounts owing with respect to Specified Hedge Agreements (unless such payments are made with the proceeds of guarantees and collateral which do not support the Specified Hedge Agreements) and Cash Management Documents and (B) to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprising the undrawn amount of Letters of Credit to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.27, ratably among the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause fourth payable to them; provided that (x) any such amounts applied pursuant to subclause (B) above shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the applicable Issuing Lenders to Cash Collateralize such L/C Obligations, (y) subject to Section 3.5 or 2.27, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to this clause fourth shall be used to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur and (z) upon the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the pro rata share of Cash Collateral shall be distributed in accordance with this clause fourth;

fifth, to the payment in full of all other Secured Obligations (other than Secured Obligations under the Specified Hedge Agreements to the extent of any payments made with the proceeds of guarantees and collateral which do not support the Specified Hedge Agreements), in each case, ratably among the Agents and the Lenders based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Secured Obligations owing to them in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and payable; and

finally, the balance, if any, after all Secured Obligations have been paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.

If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Secured Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

2.19 Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate) or any Issuing Lender;

(ii) subject the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Excluded Taxes and (C) Other Connection Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

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

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the actual cost to such Lender, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender by an amount that is material of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then from time to time, after submission by such Lender, Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to the Borrower of the certificate contemplated by clause (c) of this Section 2.19, the Borrower will, within ten Business Days after the Borrower’s receipt of such certificate, pay to such Lender, Issuing Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, Issuing Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, for such additional actual costs incurred or actual reduction suffered; provided that the Borrower shall not be liable for such compensation if (x) the relevant Change in Law occurs on a date prior to the date such Person becomes a party hereto, (y) such Person invokes Section 2.22 or (z) in the case of any request for reimbursement under clause (iii) of this Section 2.19(a) resulting from a market disruption, (A) the relevant circumstances do not generally affect the banking market or (B) the applicable request has not been made by Lenders constituting Required Lenders.

(b) If any Lender or Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or Issuing Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the actual rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the certificate contemplated by clause (c) of this Section 2.19, the Borrower will pay within ten Business Days after the Borrower’s receipt of such request to such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) The Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender requesting compensation under this Section 2.19 shall be required to deliver a certificate to the Borrower that (i) sets forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, (ii) sets forth, in reasonable detail (consistent with the detail provided by such Person to similarly situated borrowers), the manner in which such amounts were determined and (iii) certifies that such Person is generally charging such amounts to similarly situated borrowers under comparable syndicated credit facilities, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Failure or delay on the part of Administrative Agent, any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of Administrative Agent’s, such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Administrative Agent, a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of the Administrative Agent’s, such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

2.20 Taxes. (a) For purposes of this Section 2.20, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

(b) All payments made to a Recipient by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Guarantor under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, reimburse the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender for the payment of such Other Taxes in accordance with Section 2.20(g) below.

(d) Whenever any Indemnified Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as practicable thereafter, the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof if such receipt is obtainable, or, if not, other reasonable evidence of payment.

(e) Each Recipient that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Borrower and to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) (i) two accurate, complete and executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8EXP, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (claiming benefits under an applicable treaty) or W-8IMY (together with any applicable underlying forms) (or any successor or other applicable forms), or, (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from United States federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, (A) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) or Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B) two accurate, complete and executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or any subsequent versions or successors to such forms, in each case properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation) and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent.

(i) Each Non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a party under this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation) and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form, certification or other similar information pursuant to this paragraph if in a Non-U.S. Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or delivery of such form, certification or similar information would subject such Non-U.S. Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Non-U.S. Lender.

(ii) 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 Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (ii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(iii) In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms as necessary promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender pursuant to this Section 2.20(e) or shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the United States taxing authorities for such purpose).

(f) Each Recipient that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Borrower and to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) two accurate, complete and executed copies of IRS Form W-9, or any subsequent versions or successors to such form certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax. Such forms shall be delivered by each U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation). In addition, each U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such U.S. Lender or shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certifications to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the United States taxing authorities for such purpose).

(g) The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten Business Days after receipt of the certificate described in the succeeding sentence, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes are correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided that, if the Borrower reasonably believes that such Taxes were not correctly or legally asserted, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to challenge such Taxes or obtain a refund of such Taxes (which refund, when received, shall be repaid to the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.20(h)) so long as such efforts would not, in the sole determination of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, result in any additional out-of-pocket costs or expenses not reimbursed by the Borrower or be otherwise materially disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable; provided, further, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to make payment to the Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) for penalties and interest attributable to any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender or the Administrative Agent. In connection with any request for indemnification under this Section 2.20(g), the relevant Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall deliver a certificate to the Borrower setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis and calculation of the amount of the relevant payment or liability, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.20(g), the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.20(g) for any amount to the extent the Administrative Agent or such Lender fails to notify the Borrower of the relevant possible indemnification claim within twelve months after the Administrative Agent or such Lender receives written notice from the applicable taxing authority of the specific tax assessment giving rise to such indemnification claim and provided that any delay in such notice did not materially adversely prejudice the Borrower.

(h) If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a credit or refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by an indemnifying party or with respect to which an indemnifying party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay over an amount equal to such credit or refund to such indemnifying party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such indemnifying party under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such credit or refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Recipient and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such credit or refund); provided that the indemnifying party, upon the request of such Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such indemnifying party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Recipient in the event such Recipient is required to repay such credit or refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section 2.20(h) shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(i) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten Business Days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (i). The agreements in this clause (i) shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent.

(j) The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower on or before the date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower) (x) an accurate and complete signed copy of IRS Form W-8ECI with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for its own account and (y) an accurate and complete signed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of others, certifying that it is a “U.S. branch,” that the payments its receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business within the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the Borrower to be treated as a U.S. person with respect to such payments (and the 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, and in accordance with, Section 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv) of the United States Treasury Regulations).

(k) The agreements in this Section shall survive the Facility Termination Date.

2.21 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, the actual loss or actual expense (other than lost profits, including the Applicable Margin) that such Lender may actually sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment, conversion or continuation of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto (including as a result of Section 2.24 hereof). For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower under this Section 2.21, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate (excluding the impact of clause (b) of the definition of “Eurodollar Rate”) for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Loan was in fact so funded; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall not be obligated to compensate any Lender under this Section 2.21 for any loss of anticipated profits. Any Lender requesting compensation under this Section 2.21 shall deliver a certificate to the Borrower that sets forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.21, the basis therefor and, in reasonable detail (consistent with the detail provided by such Lender to similarly situated borrowers), the manner in which such amount or amounts were determined. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof. This Section shall not apply with respect to Taxes, which shall be governed by Sections 2.19 and 2.20.

2.22 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful for such Lender or its applicable lending office to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, and (a) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as such and convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended during the period of such illegality and (b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar 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 Loans; provided that if such notice relates to the unlawfulness or asserted unlawfulness of charging interest based on clause (iii) of the definition of ABR, then all Base Rate Loans shall be determined based on the definition of the term “ABR” without giving effect to such clause (iii).

2.23 Mitigation of Costs; Change of Lending Office. If any Recipient requests compensation under Section 2.19, requires the Borrower to pay any Taxes or additional amounts to any Recipient or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Recipient pursuant to Section 2.20 or gives a notice of illegality pursuant to Section 2.22, then such Recipient shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Recipient, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.19 or 2.20, as the case may be, in the future or mitigate the impact of Section 2.22, and (ii) would not subject such Recipient to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Recipient in any material respect.

2.24 Replacement of Lenders. If (a) any Lender requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.19 or Section 2.20 or gives a notice of illegality pursuant to Section 2.22, (b) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (c) any Lender is incurring or is reasonably expected to incur costs which are or would be material in amount and are associated with a Gaming Authority’s investigation of whether or not such Lender is a Qualified Person, or (d) in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver, extension or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender directly affected thereby” (or any other Class or group of Lenders other than the Required Lenders) with respect to which the Required Lenders’ consent (or the consent of Lenders holding loans or commitments of such Class or lesser group representing more than 50% of the sum of the total loans and unused commitments of such Class or lesser group at such time) has been obtained, as applicable, including in connection with any Repricing Transaction, any Lender is a non-consenting Lender (each such Lender described in this clause (d), a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, (i) terminate the applicable Commitments of such Lender and repay all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Lender relating to the applicable Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date or (ii) replace such Lender by requiring such Recipient to assign and delegate (and such Recipient shall be obligated to assign and delegate), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to a Qualified Person who is a Person eligible to be an assignee pursuant to Section 10.6(b); provided that (w) such replacement does not conflict with any Law, (ii) the replacement Lender shall purchase all Loans and other Obligations owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement at par, (iii) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.21 (as though Section 2.21 were applicable) if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such replaced Recipient shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (iv) the replacement Lender, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to the extent that an assignment to such replacement financial institution of the rights and obligations being acquired by it would otherwise require the consent of the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.6(b) and (v) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender.

2.25 Incremental Loans.

(a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by written notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request (i) one or more additional Classes of term loans and/or additional commitments of any existing Class of Term Loans (the commitments in respect of any such

new Class or increase, “Incremental Term Commitments” and loans made thereunder, “Incremental Term Loans”) and/or (ii) one or more additional Classes of Revolving Commitments (the commitments of any such new Class, “Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments”) and/or increases in the amount of Revolving Commitments of any existing Class (any such increased commitments, “Increased Revolving Commitments” and, together with any Incremental Term Commitment and Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, collectively, “Incremental Facilities”; and the loans under such Increased Revolving Commitments and Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, “Incremental Revolving Loans” and, together with any Incremental Term Loans, “Incremental Loans”); provided that:

(i) there shall be no more than three (3) separate Classes of Revolving Commitments under the Revolving Facility;

(ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would exist after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments (subject, in the case of any Incremental Term Commitments are being used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, to Section 1.6(c));

(iii) subject to Section 1.6(c), the conditions of Section 5.2(a) shall be satisfied (it being understood that all references to “such date” or similar language in such Section 5.2(a) shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such Incremental Agreement); provided that, if the proceeds of any Incremental Term Commitments are being used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, (A) the reference in Section 5.2(a) to the accuracy of the representations and warranties shall refer to the accuracy of the representations and warranties that would constitute “Specified Representations” (the definition of which shall be agreed by the Borrower and the lenders providing such Indebtedness) and the representations and warranties in the relevant acquisition agreement the breach of which would permit the buyer to terminate its obligations thereunder or decline to consummate such Limited Condition Acquisition and (B) the reference to “Material Adverse Effect” in the Specified Representations shall be understood for this purpose to refer to “Material Adverse Effect” or similar definition as defined in the main transaction agreement governing such Limited Condition Acquisition;

(iv) the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be in compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 7.1, determined on a Pro Forma Basis as of the last day of the most recently ended Test Period as if any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans, as applicable, available under such Incremental Commitments had been outstanding on the last day of such fiscal quarter of the Borrower for testing compliance therewith, and, in each case, assuming the full utilization of any unfunded revolving commitments provided simultaneously thereunder and any subsequent funding of the term debt borrowed or issued thereunder; and

(v) to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall have received customary legal opinions addressed to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, board resolutions and officers’ certificates consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date (other than changes to such legal opinion resulting from a Change in Law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion) reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and, within 60 days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree to) after the closing date of such Incremental Facilities, completion by the Borrower and the other Credit Parties of such other actions relating to any Material Real Estate that is, or is required to be, subject to a Mortgage (or the Mortgages entered into in connection therewith) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with such Incremental Facilities.

(b) Each Incremental Facility shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $10,000,000 (provided that such amount may be less than $10,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth below) (and in minimum increments of $5,000,000 in excess thereof), and the aggregate principal amount of all Incremental Facilities shall not exceed the Incremental Limit.

(c) (i) Any Incremental Term Loans (A)(1) shall be pari passu with any then-existing Class of Term Loans in right of payment and in right of security, (2) shall not be the obligation of, or subject to any guarantee by any Person who is not also a Loan Party (or who becomes a Loan Party concurrently with the effectiveness thereof), and (3) shall not be secured by (x) a Lien on any Property in which the Collateral Agent does not have a Lien (or in which the Collateral Agent does not obtain a Lien concurrently with the effectiveness thereof) or (y) a perfected Lien on any Property in which the Collateral Agent does not have a perfected Lien (or in which the Collateral Agent does not obtain a perfected Lien concurrently with the effectiveness thereof); (B) shall not mature earlier than the maturity with respect to the Initial Term Loans; (C) shall not have a shorter Weighted Average Life to Maturity than the Initial Term Loans; (D) shall have a maturity date (subject to clause (B)), an amortization schedule (subject to clause (C)), and interest rates (including through fixed interest rates), interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts and original issue discounts as determined by the Borrower and the lenders providing the Incremental Term Loans; provided that, in the event that the Effective Yield for any such Incremental Term Loans is greater than the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans by more than 0.50%, then the Applicable Margins for the Initial Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans is equal to the Effective Yield for the Incremental Term Loans minus 0.50%; (E) shall, to the extent any then-existing Term Loans require ratable prepayment, share ratably with such existing Term Loans, subject to the right of the Borrower to direct the application of voluntary prepayments and unless the Borrower and the lenders providing the Incremental Term Loans elect to share in such prepayments on a less than pro rata basis; and (F) may otherwise have terms and conditions different from those of the Initial Term Loans; provided that (x) except with respect to matters contemplated by clauses (B), (C), (D) and (E) above or terms applicable only after the Initial Term Maturity Date, any differences shall not be materially more restrictive (when taken as a whole) than the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents (when taken as a whole), as reasonably determined by the Borrower, unless such differences are consistent with then-current market terms for the applicable type of Indebtedness and (y) the documentation governing any Incremental Term Loans may include any Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant so long as the Administrative Agent shall have been given prompt written notice thereof and this Agreement is amended to include such Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant for the benefit of each Facility.

(i) The Increased Revolving Commitments shall be treated the same as the Initial Revolving Commitments in effect on the Closing Date (including with respect to maturity date thereof) and shall be considered to be part of the Initial Revolving Facility in effect on the Closing Date (it being understood that, if required to obtain Increased Revolving Commitments, the interest rate margins, rate floors and undrawn commitment fees on the Initial Revolving Commitments as in effect on the Closing Date may be increased and additional upfront or similar fees may be payable to the lenders providing the Increased Revolving Commitments) and shall be effected as an increase in the Initial Revolving Commitments.

(ii) Any Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments (A)(1) shall be pari passu with any then-existing Class of Revolving Commitments in right of payment and in right of security, (2) shall not be the obligation of, or subject to any guarantee by any Person who is not also a Loan Party (or who becomes a Loan Party concurrently with the effectiveness thereof), and (3) shall not be secured by (x) a Lien on any Property in which the Collateral Agent does not have a Lien (or in which the Collateral Agent obtains a Lien concurrently with the effectiveness thereof) or (y) a perfected Lien on any Property in which the Collateral Agent does not have a perfected Lien (or in which a Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent is perfected concurrently with the effectiveness thereof); (B) shall not mature earlier than, and shall require no scheduled amortization prior to, the Revolving Termination Date applicable to the Revolving Facility on the Closing Date and shall require no mandatory commitment reduction prior to the Revolving Termination Date applicable to the Revolving Facility on the Closing Date; (C) shall have interest rates (including through fixed interest rates), interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, undrawn commitment fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts, and premiums (including prepayment premiums) as determined by the Borrower and the lenders of providing such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments; (D) may include provisions relating to letters of credit issued thereunder, which issuances shall be on terms substantially similar (except for the overall size of such subfacilities, the fronting fees payable in connection therewith and the identity of the letter of credit issuer, which shall be determined by the Borrower, the lenders of such commitments and the applicable letter of credit issuers, which shall be specified in the applicable Incremental Agreement) to the terms relating to Letters of Credit with respect to the Revolving Commitments or otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (E) may otherwise have terms and conditions different from those of the Initial Revolving Facility; provided that (x) except with respect to matters contemplated by clauses (B), (C) and (D) above or terms applicable only after the Revolving Termination Date applicable to the Initial Revolving Facility, any differences shall not be materially more restrictive (when taken as a whole) than the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents (when taken as a whole), as reasonably determined by the Borrower, unless such differences shall be consistent with then-current market terms for the applicable type of Indebtedness and (y) the documentation governing any Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments may include any Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant so long as the Administrative Agent shall have been given prompt written notice thereof and this Agreement is amended to include such Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant for the benefit of each Facility; provided, further, however, that if the applicable Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant is a “springing” financial maintenance covenant applicable only to revolving Indebtedness, the Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant shall be automatically included in this agreement only for the benefit of each Revolving Facility (and not for the benefit of any Facility in respect of Term Loans hereunder).

(d) Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.25 shall be given in writing and shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Facility. Incremental Facilities may be provided, subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld), by any existing Lender (it being understood that no existing Lender will have an obligation to provide any portion of any Incremental Facility) or by any other Person eligible to be an assignee pursuant to Section 10.6(b), subject to any applicable consent requirements and the other limitations set forth therein (any such other lender being called an “Additional Lender”); provided that any Additional Lender shall execute and deliver a Joinder Agreement.

(e) (i) Incremental Commitments shall become effective under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Agreement”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender (who shall, upon the effectiveness thereof, become a Lender for all purposes in connection with this Agreement), if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Agreement may, subject to Section 2.25(c), without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.25 (including, in connection with any Increased Revolving Commitments, to reallocate Revolving Extensions of Credit on a pro rata basis among the relevant Revolving Lenders). The effectiveness of any Incremental Agreement shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) and the occurrence of any extension of credit thereunder shall be subject to only the satisfaction of such conditions as the parties thereto shall agree and as set forth in this Section 2.25. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Incremental Facilities for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.

(ii) Upon the effectiveness of any Increased Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.25, each Lender with a Revolving Commitment of such Class immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Increased Revolving Commitments (each, an “Increasing Revolving Commitment Lender”), and each such Increasing Revolving Commitment Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed a portion of such Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding participations hereunder in Letters of Credit held by each Lender with a Revolving Commitment of such Class (including each such Increasing Revolving Commitment Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Commitments of such Class of all Lenders represented by such Lender’s Revolving Commitment of such Class. If, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving Loans of such Class outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall, on or prior to the effectiveness of such Increased Revolving Commitments, be prepaid from the proceeds of additional Revolving Loans made hereunder (reflecting such Increased Revolving Commitments of such Class), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans of such Class being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.21. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(iii) Upon the effectiveness of any Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, then (A) the borrowing and repayment (except (x) payments of interest and fees at different rates in respect of any then-existing Revolving Commitments and such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments (and, in each case, related outstandings), (y) repayments required on the maturity date of any then-existing Revolving Commitments and (z) repayments made in connection with any permanent repayment and termination of Commitments (subject to clause (D) below) of Incremental Revolving Loans in respect thereof) after the effective date of such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with the then-existing Revolving Facility, (B) all letters of credit shall be participated by all Revolving Lenders of such Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments on a pro rata basis with all Revolving Lenders of the then-existing Revolving Facility, (C) assignments and participations of Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments (and the related outstandings) shall be governed by the assignment and participation provisions set forth in Section 10.6 and (D) no termination of Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments and no repayment of Incremental Loans in respect thereof accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in the related

Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments shall be permitted unless (x) such Class of Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments are the earliest maturing Class of Revolving Commitments or (y) such termination or repayment (and corresponding reduction) is accompanied by at least a pro rata termination or permanent repayment (and corresponding pro rata permanent reduction), as applicable, of all then-existing Revolving Commitments (and, in each case, related outstandings).

(iv) On the date of the Borrowing of any Incremental Term Loans that will be of the same Class as any then-existing Class of Term Loans, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Sections 2.2, 2.13 or 2.15, such Incremental Term Loans shall be added to (and constitute a part of, be of the same Type as and, at the election of the Borrower, have the same Interest Period as) each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans of such Class on a pro rata basis (based on the relative sizes of such Borrowings), so that each Term Lender providing such Incremental Term Loans will participate proportionately in each then-outstanding Borrowing of Term Loans of such Class; it being acknowledged that the application of this clause (e)(iv) may result in new Incremental Term Loans having Interest Periods (the duration of which may be less than one (1) month) that begin during an Interest Period then applicable to outstanding Eurodollar Loans of the relevant Class and which end on the last day of such Interest Period. The Incremental Agreement effectuating any Incremental Term Loans that will be of the same Class as any then-existing Class of Term Loans shall make such adjustments to Section 2.3 (or to the corresponding provisions of the applicable Incremental Agreement, Refinancing Agreement or Extension Agreement) to as are necessary to provide for the “fungibility” of such Incremental Term Loans with such then-existing Class of Term Loans.

(f) No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Facility unless it so agrees and the Borrower shall not be obligated to offer any existing Lender the opportunity to provide any Incremental Facility. No Incremental Facility nor any Incremental Loan (nor the creation, provision or implementation thereof) shall require the approval of any existing Lender other than in its capacity, if any, as a lender providing all or a part of any Incremental Commitment or Incremental Loan or, in the circumstances described in Section 2.25(d), in its capacity as an Issuing Lender.

(g) Effective on the date of effectiveness of any Increased Revolving Commitments or Additional/Replacement Revolving Commitments, the L/C Commitments shall increase by an amount, if any, agreed upon by Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lenders, if applicable, and the Borrower.

(h) This Section 2.25 shall supersede any provisions in Section 10.1 to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, any provision of this Section 2.25 may be amended with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such amendment shall require any Lender to provide any Incremental Commitment without such Lender’s consent.

2.26 Defaulting Lenders. (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(i) Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.1 unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.7 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the applicable Issuing Lender(s) hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.27; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lenders’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.27; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the applicable Issuing Lenders against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and, eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or amounts outstanding under any Letter of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans or Letter of Credit draws were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and the amounts outstanding under any Letters of Credit owed to, all the Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or amounts outstanding under any Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility without giving effect to Section 2.26(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this clause (ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fees payable under Section 2.9 or fees in connection with Letters of Credit as provided in Section 3.3 (except to the extent that the Defaulting Lender has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.27 with respect to its participation in such Letter of Credit) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender); provided that if the L/C Obligations of the Non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to the clause (iv) below, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.3 shall be adjusted in accordance with such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Percentages and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to the Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.3 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations during the period that such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations are reallocated, or if any Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations are neither Cash Collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to the requirements of clause (iv) below, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lenders or any Lender hereunder, all fees payable under Section 3.3 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Obligations shall be payable to the applicable Issuing Lenders until such L/C Obligations are Cash Collateralized and/or reallocated.

(iv) All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time) and (y) such reallocation does not cause the sum of the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of any Non-Defaulting Lender, plus such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations at such time to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment. Subject to each party hereunder’s acknowledgment of the provisions set forth in Section 9.13, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from such Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, such acknowledgment shall not constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender.

(v) If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law Cash Collateralize the Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.27.

(b) If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility (without giving effect to Section 2.26(a)(iv), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed in writing by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) So long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, extend, renew or amend (including any increase) any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

2.27 Cash Collateral (a) If required pursuant to Section 3.1(a) or Section 8.1, the Borrower shall promptly Cash Collateralize the then outstanding amount of all L/C Obligations in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, promptly upon the written request of the Administrative Agent or any applicable Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize all Fronting Exposure of such Issuing Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.26(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.

(b) The Borrower and, to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subject to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lenders and the applicable Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest (subject to ordinary course Liens of the depositing bank holding such Cash Collateral) in all such Cash Collateral, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and all proceeds of the foregoing, as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to clause (c) of this Section 2.27. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person (subject to ordinary course Liens of the depositing bank holding such Cash Collateral) other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.27, Section 3.1, Section 8.1 or otherwise in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligations) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(d) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of the Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 10.6), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that (A) Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower shall not be released during the continuance of a Default under Section 8.1(a) or (f) or an Event of Default (and following application as provided in this Section may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.1) and (B) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the applicable Issuing Lender(s) may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations hereunder and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

2.28 Extensions of Term Loans and Revolving Commitments.

(a) (i) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, request that all or a portion of each Term Loan of any Class (an “Existing Term Loan Class”) be converted or exchanged to extend the scheduled final maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Term Loans (any such Term Loans which have been so extended, “Extended Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.28. Prior to entering into any Extension Agreement with respect to any Extended Term Loans, the Borrower shall provide written notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Term Loan Class, with such request offered equally to all such Lenders of such Existing Term Loan Class) (a “Term Loan Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms

of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which terms shall be substantially similar to the Term Loans of the Existing Term Loan Class, or otherwise not materially more restrictive than the terms of such Existing Term Loan Class, taken as a whole (as reasonably determined by the Borrower), except that (w) the scheduled final maturity date shall be extended and all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of all or a portion of any principal amount of such Extended Term Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization of principal of the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Class (with any such delay resulting in a corresponding adjustment to the scheduled amortization payments reflected in Section 2.3 or in the Extension Agreement or the Incremental Agreement or the Refinancing Agreement, as the case may be, with respect to the Existing Term Loan Class of Term Loans from which such Extended Term Loans were extended, in each case, as more particularly set forth in Section 2.28(c) below), (x)(A) the interest rates (including through fixed interest rates), interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts and prepayment premiums with respect to the Extended Term Loans may be different than those for the Term Loans of such Existing Term Loan Class and/or (B) additional fees and/or premiums may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Term Loans in addition to any of the items contemplated by the preceding clause (A), in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Agreement, (y) the Extension Agreement may provide for other covenants and terms that apply to any period after the Latest Term Loan Maturity Date with respect to the then-existing Term Loans and such terms and conditions that constitute then-current market terms for the applicable type of Indebtedness and (z) any provisions applicable to such Extended Term Loans that also expressly apply to (and for the benefit of) the Existing Term Loan Class may be more favorable to the Lenders providing such Extended Term Loans than those originally applicable to the Existing Term Loan Class; provided that any Class of Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayment or prepayment (but, for purposes of clarity, not scheduled amortization payments) in respect of the Term Loans, in each case as specified in the relevant Extension Agreement. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Class exchanged or converted into Extended Term Loans pursuant to any Term Loan Extension Request. Any Extended Term Loans of any Extension Series shall constitute a separate Class of Term Loans from the Existing Term Loan Class of Term Loans from which they were extended; provided that in no event shall there be more than ten Classes of Term Loans outstanding at any time.

(ii) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, request that all or a portion of the Revolving Commitments of any Class existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing Revolving Commitment” and any related Revolving Loans under any such facility, “Existing Revolving Loans”; each Existing Revolving Commitment and related Existing Revolving Loans together being referred to as an “Existing Revolving Class”) be converted or exchanged to extend the termination date thereof and the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of Existing Revolving Loans related to such Existing Revolving Commitments (any such Existing Revolving Commitments which have been so extended, “Extended Revolving Commitments” and any related Revolving Loans, “Extended Revolving Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.28. Prior to entering into any Extension Agreement with respect to any Extended Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Class of Existing Revolving Commitments, with such request offered equally to all Lenders of such Class) (a “Revolving Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Commitments to be established thereunder, which terms shall be substantially similar to those applicable to the Existing Revolving Commitments from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Revolving Class”) or otherwise not materially more restrictive than the terms of such Existing Revolving Class, taken as a whole (as reasonably determined by the Borrower), except that (x) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Extended Revolving Commitments may be delayed to later dates than the final maturity dates of the Existing Revolving Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Class, (y)(A) the interest rates,

interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts and prepayment premiums with respect to the Extended Revolving Commitments may be different than those for the Existing Revolving Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Class and/or (B) additional fees and/or premiums may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Revolving Commitments in addition to or in lieu of any of the items contemplated by the preceding clause (A), and (z) the Extension Agreement may provide for other covenants and terms that apply to any period after the Latest Revolving Maturity Date or such terms and conditions that constitute then-current market terms for the applicable type of Indebtedness; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.28, or otherwise, (I) the borrowing and repayment (except (1) payments of interest and fees at different rates in respect of any Existing Revolving Commitments and such Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), (2) repayments required on the maturity date of any Existing Revolving Commitments and such Extended Revolving Commitments and (3) repayments made in connection with any permanent repayment and termination of commitments (subject to clause (IV) below) of the Extended Revolving Loans under any Extended Revolving Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with any borrowings and repayments of the Existing Revolving Loans of the Specified Existing Revolving Class (the mechanics for which may be implemented through the applicable Extension Agreement and may include technical changes related to the borrowing and repayment procedures of the Specified Existing Revolving Class), (II) all letters of credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Extended Revolving Commitments and Existing Revolving Commitments, (III) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Commitments and Extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the assignment and participation provisions set forth in Section 10.6 and (IV) no termination of Extended Revolving Commitments and no repayment of Extended Revolving Loans accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in the related Extended Revolving Commitments shall be permitted unless (A) such Extended Revolving Loans have the earliest maturity date of all Revolving Loans or (B) such termination or repayment (and corresponding reduction) is accompanied by at least a pro rata termination or permanent repayment (and corresponding pro rata permanent reduction), as applicable, of the Existing Revolving Loans or Existing Revolving Commitments, as the case may be. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Revolving Loans or Revolving Commitments of any Existing Revolving Class converted or exchanged into Extended Revolving Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Extended Revolving Commitments of any Extension Series shall constitute a separate Class of revolving commitments from Existing Revolving Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Class and from any other Existing Revolving Commitments (together with any other Extended Revolving Commitments so established on such date); provided that in no event shall there be more than three Classes of revolving commitments outstanding at any one time.

(b) The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request to the Administrative Agent at least five Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may determine in its reasonable discretion) prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Class are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably, to accomplish the purpose of this Section 2.28. Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments of an Existing Class subject to such Extension Request converted or exchanged into Extended Loans/Commitments shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (and/or any earlier extended Extended Revolving Commitments) which it has elected to convert or exchange into Extended Loans/Commitments (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Administrative Agent). In the event that the aggregate amount of Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Loans/Commitments requested pursuant to the Extension Request, the Term Loans, and/or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to or

exchanged to Extended Loans/Commitments on a pro rata basis (subject to such rounding requirements as may be established by the Administrative Agent) based on the amount of Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments included in each such Extension Election or as may be otherwise agreed to in the applicable Extension Agreement. Notwithstanding the conversion of any Existing Revolving Commitment into an Extended Revolving Commitment, unless expressly agreed by the holders of each affected Existing Revolving Commitment of the Specified Existing Revolving Class, such Extended Revolving Commitment shall not be treated more favorably than all Existing Revolving Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Class for purposes of the obligations of a Revolving Lender in respect of Letters of Credit under Section 3, except that the applicable Extension Agreement may provide that the last day for issuing Letters of Credit may be extended and the related obligations to issue Letters of Credit may be continued (pursuant to mechanics to be specified in the applicable Extension Agreement) so long as the applicable Issuing Lenders have consented to such extensions (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender shall be required in connection with any such extension).

(c) Extended Loans/Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Agreement”) to this Agreement (which notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 10.1, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Loans/Commitments established thereby) executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Extending Lenders. In addition to any terms and changes required or permitted by Section 2.28(a), each Extension Agreement in respect of Extended Term Loans shall amend the scheduled amortization payments pursuant to Section 2.3 or the applicable Incremental Agreement or Extension Agreement with respect to the Existing Class of Term Loans from which the Extended Term Loans were exchanged to reduce each scheduled Repayment Amount for the Existing Class in the same proportion as the amount of Term Loans of the Existing Class is to be reduced pursuant to such Extension Agreement (it being understood that the amount of any Repayment Amount payable with respect to any individual Term Loan of such Existing Class that is not an Extended Term Loan shall not be reduced as a result thereof). In connection with any Extension Agreement, the Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as to the enforceability of such Extension Agreement, this Agreement as amended thereby and such other customary matters as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, and such of the other Loan Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby (in the case of such other Loan Documents as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) on any date on which any Existing Term Loan Class or Class of Existing Revolving Commitments is converted or exchanged to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with clause (a) above (an “Extension Date”), (A) in the case of the existing Term Loans of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such existing Term Loans shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Term Loans so converted or exchanged by such Lender on such date, and the Extended Term Loans shall be established as a separate Class of Term Loans (together with any other Extended Term Loans so established on such date), and (B) in the case of the Existing Revolving Commitments of each Extending Lender under any Specified Existing Revolving Class, the aggregate principal amount of such Existing Revolving Commitments shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Revolving Commitments so converted or exchanged by such Lender on such date, and such Extended Revolving Commitments shall be established as a separate Class of revolving commitments from the Specified Existing Revolving Class and from any other Existing Revolving Commitments (together with any other Extended Revolving Commitments so established on such date) and (ii) if, on any Extension Date, any Existing Revolving Loans of any Extending Lender are outstanding under the Specified Existing Revolving Class, such Existing Revolving Loans (and any related participations) shall be deemed to be converted or exchanged to Extended Revolving Loans (and related participations) of the applicable Class in the same proportion as such

Extending Lender’s Specified Existing Revolving Commitments to Extended Revolving Commitments of such Class.

(e) In the event that the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion that the allocation of Extended Term Loans of a given Extension Series or the Extended Revolving Commitments of a given Extension Series, in each case, to a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt and processing of an Extension Election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Extension Agreement, then the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such affected Lender may (and hereby are authorized to), in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (each, a “Corrective Extension Agreement”) within fifteen days following the effective date of such Extension Agreement, as the case may be, which Corrective Extension Agreement shall (i) provide for the conversion or exchange and extension of Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Class or Existing Revolving Commitments (and related Revolving Extensions of Credit), as the case may be, in such amount as is required to cause such Lender to hold Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments (and related Revolving Extensions of Credit) of the applicable Extension Series into which such other Term Loans or commitments were initially converted or exchanged, as the case may be, in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation of the applicable Loans or Commitments to which it was entitled under the terms of such Extension Agreement, in the absence of such error, (ii) be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such Lender may agree (including conditions of the type required to be satisfied for the effectiveness of an Extension Agreement described in Section 2.28(c)), and (iii) effect such other amendments of the type (with appropriate reference and nomenclature changes) described in the penultimate sentence of Section 2.28(c).

(f) No conversion or exchange of Loans or Commitments pursuant to any Extension Agreement in accordance with this Section 2.28 shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement.

(g) This Section 2.28 shall supersede any provisions in Section 10.1 to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, any of the provisions of this Section 2.28 may be amended with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such amendment shall require any Lender to provide any Extended Loans/Commitments without such Lender’s consent.

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 Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue standby and/or trade letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower (provided that any Letter of Credit may be for the benefit of Holdings or any other Group Member) on any Business Day prior to the end of the Revolving Commitment Period in Dollars; provided that neither the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates shall have any obligation to issue trade Letters of Credit and provided, further, that no Issuing Lender shall have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) (x) the L/C Obligations would exceed the aggregate L/C Commitments of all Issuing Lenders or (y) unless the applicable Issuing Lender consents, the aggregate L/C Obligations in respect of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender exceed such Issuing Lender’s L/C Commitment, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero or (iii) the Available

Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender would be less than zero. Each Letter of Credit shall expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance unless otherwise agreed by the Issuing Lender in its sole discretion and (y) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Termination Date; provided that, if requested by the Borrower and accepted by the applicable Issuing Lender in its sole and absolute discretion, a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one year periods containing an expiry date of more than twelve months after the date of issuance (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above (unless, at least five Business Days prior to the notice period for the then current expiry date, such Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations with respect to such Letter of Credit in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount applicable to such Letter of Credit)); provided, however, that (1) any such Letter of Credit shall permit such 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 (the “Nonrenewal Notice”) not later than a number of days in each such twelve month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued, (2) such Issuing Lender shall not (x) permit any such renewal if such Issuing Lender has determined that it would not be permitted, or 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 Section 3.1(b) or otherwise) or (y) be obligated to permit such renewal if it has received notice (which may be in writing or by telephone (if immediately confirmed in writing)) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the date of the Nonrenewal Notice from the Administrative Agent, the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the Revolving Facility or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.2 is not then satisfied and, in each such case, directing such Issuing Lender not to permit such renewal.

(b) No Issuing Lender shall at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if (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 Law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which such Issuing Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it, (ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally, (iii) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than $10,000, (iv) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars, (v) such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder or (vi) any Revolving Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender, unless such Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements, including reallocation of such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the outstanding L/C Obligations pursuant to Section 2.26(a)(iv) or the delivery of Cash Collateral with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate such Issuing Lender’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.26(a)(iv)) with respect to such Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or such Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which such Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion. In addition, no Issuing Lender shall be under any obligation to amend or extend any Letter of Credit if (A) such Issuing Lender would have no obligation at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment thereto.

3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that the relevant Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to such Issuing Lender, not later than 1:00 p.m. on the third Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to be denominated in Dollars (or such other time as the applicable Issuing Lender may agree in a particular circumstance in its sole discretion), at its address for notices specified to the Borrower by such Issuing Lender an Application therefor, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, 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 Application, the relevant Issuing Lender will process such Application 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 by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by such Issuing Lender and such Borrower. Such Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof. Each Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the relevant Lenders, notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit issued by it (including the amount thereof).

3.3 Fees and Other Charges. (a) The Borrower will pay a fee on each outstanding Letter of Credit, at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans under the Revolving Facility on the face amount of such Letter of Credit, which fees shall be shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee equal to 0.125% on the aggregate face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by it to such Borrower (but in no event less than $500 per annum for each such Letter of Credit), payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date.

(b) In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse each Issuing Lender for such customary fees and expenses as are incurred or charged by such Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit requested by the Borrower (which fees and expenses shall have been agreed to from time to time by the Borrower and the relevant Issuing Lender).

3.4 L/C Participations. (a) Each Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce such Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from such Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in such Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by it and the amount of each draft paid by such Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant agrees with each Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid prior to the Revolving Termination Date under any Letter of Credit issued by it for which such Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower on the date due therefor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender upon demand an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed. Each L/C Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such L/C Participant may have against any Issuing Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the financial condition of the Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other L/C Participant or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the sum of (x) the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the Overnight Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360, plus (y) any reasonable administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such Issuing Lender in connection with the foregoing. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility. A certificate of the relevant Issuing Lender submitted to any relevant L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be presumptively correct in the absence of manifest error.

(c) Whenever, at any time after any Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a) such Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing Lender will distribute to the Administrative Agent for the account of such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it.

(d) Until each L/C Participant reimburses the applicable Issuing Lender for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage of such amount shall be solely for the account of such Issuing Lender.

3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Issuing Lender in respect of any drawing under a Letter of Credit following notice of any drawing under a Letter of Credit. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the second Business Day immediately succeeding the date of any payment by the relevant Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Lender in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing as set forth above; provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.5 that such reimbursement be financed with a borrowing of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans in Dollars in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans, as applicable. Each such payment shall be made to such Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified to the Borrower and in immediately available funds whether cash on hand or proceeds of Revolving Loans as described in the proviso of the preceding sentence. Interest shall be payable on any such amounts from the date on which the relevant draft is paid until payment in full at a rate equal to the rate applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility.

3.6 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of (i) any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that such Borrower may have or have had against any Issuing Lender, any beneficiary or transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting) or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction; (ii) the enforceability, validity or genuineness of documents (including any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit) or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be unenforceable, invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged, or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit; (iii) any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) any payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the applicable Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws; (v) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Obligations of the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit; or (vi) any other events or circumstances whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower. The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will promptly notify the applicable Issuing Lender. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against any Issuing Lender and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

3.7 Letter of Credit Payments.

(a) If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the relevant Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of the date and amount thereof; provided that failure (or delay) to so notify shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender hereunder.

(b) In paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by such Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any document. None of the applicable Issuing Lender, its Related Parties nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of such Issuing Lender shall be liable to any Revolving Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the requisite Revolving Lenders; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Application. The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts of omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the applicable Issuing Lender, its Related Parties nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of such Issuing Lender shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in Section 3.6; provided that, notwithstanding anything in such clauses to the contrary, the Borrower may have a claim against such Issuing Lender, and such Issuing Lender may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the

extent, of any direct (as opposed to indirect, special, punitive, consequential or exemplary) damages suffered by the Borrower which a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final nonappealable judgment were caused by such Issuing Lender’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct or such Issuing Lender’s willful or grossly negligent failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit or other material breach of this Agreement by such Issuing Lender.

(a) The audited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2013, December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal years ended on such dates, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report from Ernst & Young LLP, present fairly in all material respects the financial condition of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the respective fiscal years then ended, except in each case as otherwise disclosed on Schedule 4.1(a) hereto.

(b) The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2016, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal quarters ended on such date, present fairly in all material respects the financial condition of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the fiscal quarter then ended, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, except in each case (i) as otherwise disclosed on Schedule 4.1(b) hereto and (ii) subject to changes resulting from audit, normal year-end audit adjustments and to the absence of footnotes.

Such pro forma consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of income have been prepared in good faith by the Borrower based on assumptions believed to be reasonable by the Borrower at the time furnished, it being understood that no such pro forma financial statement is required to include adjustments for purchase accounting (including adjustments of the type contemplated by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (formerly SFAS 141R)).

4.2 No Change. Since December 31, 2015, there has been no event, development or circumstance, either individually or in the aggregate, that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.3 Existence; Compliance with Law. Each Group Member (a) (i) is duly organized (or incorporated) and validly existing and (ii) in good standing (or, in the case of any Foreign Subsidiary, the equivalent status in any foreign jurisdiction) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization or incorporation, (b) has the requisite organizational power and authority 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, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign entity and in good standing (where such concept is relevant) under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of Property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification and (d) is in compliance with all Laws (including, without limitation, Gaming Regulations and Gaming Permits), except, in each case referred to in this Section 4.3 (other than clause (a)(i) and (b), in each case, with respect to the Borrower), to the extent that any such failure to be so organized and existing, in good standing or qualified, to have such requisite organizational power and authority or to comply with such Laws, as applicable, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Loan Party is not an EEA Financial Institution.

4.4 Organizational Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to borrow or have Letters of Credit issued hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the extensions of credit on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each Loan Party has duly executed and delivered each Loan Document to which it is a party. Except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority (including, without limitation, any Gaming Authority) or any other Person is required in connection with the extensions of credit hereunder or the execution, delivery and performance of any Loan Document by any Loan Party party thereto, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 4.4, which consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made (except to the extent not yet required to have been obtained or made), each of which is in full force and effect, (ii) the filings referred to in Section 4.17, (iii) the consent or approval of the applicable Gaming Authorities of the pledge of any Gaming Collateral and any other Gaming Business pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and other informational filings with and under Nevada Gaming Commission Regulation 8.130 and other notices required to be delivered to the applicable Gaming

Authorities pursuant to applicable Gaming Regulations in connection with such pledge of such Gaming Collateral, and (iv) the approval of one or more Gaming Authorities that may be required in connection with foreclosure and the exercise of rights and remedies under the Loan Documents. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party that is a party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, general equitable principles (whether considered in an proceeding in equity or at law) and/or principles of good faith and fair dealing.

4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by each Loan Party party hereto or thereto, the issuance of Letters of Credit, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof and the granting and perfection of the Liens contemplated thereunder, do not violate (a) such Loan Party’s Organizational Documents, (b) any Law (including, without limitation, Gaming Regulations) applicable to such Loan Party or (c) any Contractual Obligation of such Loan Party except, in each case referred to in clause (b) or (c), to the extent that any such violation would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.6 No Material Litigation. No litigation, proceeding or investigation of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened in writing, against any Group Member or against any of their Properties or revenues which, taken as a whole, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.7 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower shall use the proceeds of each Loan and Letter of Credit hereunder solely for the purposes provided in Section 6.10.

4.8 Ownership of Property; Liens. Except as set forth in Schedule 4.8, each Group Member has good and indefeasible title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold or subleasehold interest in, all its real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in or right to use, all its Property (other than Intellectual Property), in each case, that are necessary for the operation of their respective businesses as currently conducted and as proposed to be conducted, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and none of such Property is subject to any Lien other than Permitted Liens. As of the Closing Date, except as set forth in Schedule 4.8, no real property is owned by any Loan Party in fee simple or leased by any Loan Party.

4.9 Intellectual Property. Each Group Member owns, or has a valid right to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens) without, to the knowledge of the Borrower, conflict with the rights of any other Person, except where the failure to do so or such conflict would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Borrower, no holding, injunction, decision or judgment has been rendered by any Governmental Authority and no Group Member has entered into any settlement stipulation or other agreement (except license agreements in the ordinary course of business) which would limit, cancel or question the validity of any Group Member’s rights in any Intellectual Property owned by such Group Member in any respect that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Borrower, no claim has been asserted, is pending or is threatened by any Person challenging or questioning the use by any Group Member of any Intellectual Property or the validity of any Intellectual Property, or alleging any infringement, misappropriation or violation by any Group Member of any Intellectual Property of any Person, except in each case as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Borrower, the operation of the respective businesses of each Group Member as currently conducted does not infringe upon, misappropriate or otherwise violate any rights held by any Person, except for such infringements,

misappropriations or violations that would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. To the knowledge of the Borrower, except as would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, no Person is infringing, misappropriating or violating any Intellectual Property owned by any Group Member, and no Group Member has made or threatened to make any claim relating to the foregoing. Each Group Member has taken all actions that in the exercise of their reasonable business judgment should be taken to protect the Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted, including Intellectual Property that is confidential in nature, except where the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.10 Taxes. Except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (a) each Group Member has filed or caused to be filed all federal income tax returns and all other tax returns (including tax returns to be filed in foreign jurisdictions) that are required to be filed and has paid all Taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns other than those (i) not yet delinquent or (ii) contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP and (b) each Group Member has paid all other Taxes imposed on it or any of its Property by any Governmental Authority responsible for administering taxes, or such taxes are being contested in good faith and have provided adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP for the payment of all such Taxes.

4.11 Federal Reserve Regulations. No part of the proceeds of any Loans, and no other extensions of credit hereunder, will be used for any purpose that violates Regulation T, U or X.

4.12 ERISA. (a) Except as would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect, (i) no ERISA Event has occurred or is expected to occur; (ii) there are no pending or, to the knowledge of any Group Member, claims, actions or lawsuits or action by any Governmental Authority, participant or beneficiary with respect to any Plan threatened in writing; (iii) there are no violations of the fiduciary responsibility rules with respect to any Plan; (iv) no Group Member has engaged in any non-exempt “prohibited transaction,” as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, in connection with any Plan, that would subject any Group Member to a tax on prohibited transactions imposed by Section 502(i) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code; and (v) each Plan has complied with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code. The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Single Employer Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Single Employer Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by an amount that, if required to be paid as of such date by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the date hereof, no Group Member participates in a Multiemployer Plan.

(b) No Group Member has incurred, and no Group Member reasonably expects to incur, any liability under ERISA or the Code with respect to any plan within the meaning of Section 3(3) of ERISA which is subject to Title IV of ERISA that is maintained by a Commonly Controlled Entity (other than a Group Member) (a “Commonly Controlled Plan”) merely by virtue of being treated as a single employer under Title IV of ERISA with the sponsor of such plan that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and result in a direct obligation of such Group Member to pay money.

(c) Except as would not reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to have a Material Adverse Effect: (i) each Foreign Pension Plan is in compliance and in good standing in all respects with all laws, regulations and rules applicable thereto, and the respective requirements of the governing documents for such Foreign Pension Plan, and each Foreign Pension Plan that is required to be registered has been registered and has been maintained in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities; (ii) with respect to each Foreign Pension Plan maintained or contributed to by a Group

Member (A) that is required by applicable to law to be funded in a trust or other funding vehicle, such Foreign Pension Plan is in compliance with applicable law regarding funding requirements, and (B) that is not required by applicable law to be funded in a trust or other funding vehicle, reserves have been established where required by ordinary accounting practices in the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Pension Plan is maintained; and (iii) no actions or proceedings have been taken or instituted to terminate or wind-up a Foreign Pension Plan with respect to which any Group Member could reasonably be expected to have any liability. The accrued benefit obligations of each Foreign Pension Plan (based on the assumptions used to fund such Foreign Pension Plan) do not exceed the assets of such Foreign Pension Plan by an amount that, if required to be paid immediately, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.13 Investment Company Act. No Loan Party is required to be registered as an “investment company” under and within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

4.14 Subsidiaries. (a) The Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 4.14 constitute all the Subsidiaries of the Borrower as of the Closing Date. Schedule 4.14 sets forth as of the Closing Date the name and jurisdiction of incorporation of each Subsidiary and, as to each Subsidiary, the percentage of each class of Capital Stock owned by any Loan Party. All Capital Stock of each Group Member has been validly issued, are (as applicable) fully paid and nonassessable and are free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens.

(b) As of the Closing Date, except as set forth on Schedule 4.14, there are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments of any nature (other than compliance with any requirements of any applicable Gaming Regulations) to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party relating to any Capital Stock of any Group Member.

(b) No Group Member has received any letter or request for information under Section 104 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (42 U.S.C. § 9604) or any comparable state law;

(c) To the knowledge of the Borrower, there are and have been, no conditions or occurrences that would reasonably be expected to form the basis of an Environmental Claim against any Group Member or any real property currently owned, leased or operated by the Group Members or any such claim arising out of the ownership, lease or operation by the Group Members of any real property formerly owned, lease or operated by the Group Members but no longer owned, leased or operated by the Group Members;

(d) Each Group member is in compliance with all Environmental Laws and all permits issued under such Environmental Laws; and

(e) Hazardous Materials have not at any time been generated, used, treated or stored on, or transported to or from, or released on or from, any real property owned, leased or operated by the Group Members or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, any property adjoining or adjacent to any real property, where such generation, use, treatment, storage, transportation or release would reasonably be expected to give rise to an Environmental Claim against the Group Members.

4.16 Accuracy of Information, Etc.. All written information (other than the Projections, other forward-looking information and information of a general economic or industry nature) concerning any Group Member or any of their respective Subsidiaries that has been made available by the Borrower or their respective representatives and made available to the Agents or any Lead Arranger or Lender in connection with the Transactions or this Agreement, when taken as a whole, did not, when furnished, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto from time to time). The Projections, when taken as a whole, have been prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by the Borrower to be reasonable at the time furnished (it being recognized that such Projections are not to be viewed as facts and are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Borrower’s control, that no assurance can be given that any particular financial projections will be realized, that actual results may differ from projected results and that such differences may be material).

4.17 Security Documents. (a) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal and valid security interest in the Collateral described therein (subject, in the case of the Pledged Securities described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, to the receipt of any approvals required by the applicable Gaming Authorities (including those described in Section 10.24) in order to pledge any of the Gaming Collateral of any entity licensed by or registered with such Gaming Authorities). In the case of (i) the Pledged Securities described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when any stock certificates or notes, as applicable, representing such Pledged Securities are delivered to the Collateral Agent and subject to the receipt of any approvals required by the applicable Gaming Authorities (including those described in Section 10.24) in order to pledge any of the Gaming Collateral of any entity licensed by or registered with such Gaming Authorities and (ii) the other Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.17(a), the Collateral Agent shall have a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral (including any proceeds of any item of Collateral) (to the extent a security interest in such Collateral can be perfected through the filing of financing statements under the Laws of the jurisdictions in which the offices specified on Schedule 4.17(a) are located and through the delivery of the Pledged Securities required to be delivered on the Closing Date), as security for the Secured Obligations.

(b) Upon the execution and delivery of any Mortgage to be executed and delivered pursuant to Section 6.8(b), such Mortgage shall be effective to create in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a legal and valid Lien on the mortgaged property described therein and proceeds thereof; and when such Mortgage is filed in the recording office designated by the Borrower, such Mortgage shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such mortgaged property and the proceeds thereof, as security for the Secured Obligations (as defined in the relevant Mortgage).

4.18 Solvency. On the Closing Date, immediately after giving effect to the Transactions and the incurrence and repayment of all Indebtedness and obligations being incurred and repaid in connection herewith and therewith on the Closing Date, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are Solvent.

4.22 Insurance. The properties of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries are insured with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, in such amounts (after giving effect to any self-insurance reasonable and customary for similarly situated Persons engaged in the same or similar businesses as the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries) with such deductibles and covering such risks and liabilities as are customarily carried by companies engaged in similar businesses and owning similar

(b) Certain Cure Rights.

(i) Financial Condition Covenant. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event the Group Members fail to comply with the requirements of the covenant as set forth in Section 7.1(a) (the “Financial Condition Covenant”) as at the last day of any fiscal quarter (a fiscal quarter ending on such day, a “Curable Period”), at any time during such Curable Period and until the expiration of the 15th Business Day subsequent to the date the certificate calculating the Financial Condition Covenant is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(a) with respect to the Test Period ending on the last day of such Curable Period, the Borrower shall have the right (the “Cure Right”) to issue Permitted Cure Securities for cash or otherwise receive cash contributions in respect of Permitted Cure Securities (such proceeds received by the Borrower as a result of such issuance, or such other cash contributions, the “Cure Amount”). Upon the receipt by the Borrower of cash in an amount equal to the Cure Amount pursuant to the exercise of such Cure Right, the Financial Condition Covenant shall be recalculated giving effect to the following pro forma adjustments:

113

(A) Consolidated EBITDA for the Curable Period shall be increased, solely for the purpose of measuring the Financial Condition Covenant, and disregarded for any other purpose under this Agreement (including determining the Applicable Margin, the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate, the availability of any baskets and step-downs and for determining whether any financial ratio-based condition has been satisfied), by an amount equal to the Cure Amount; and

(B) if, after giving effect to the foregoing recalculations, the Group Members shall then be in compliance with the requirements of the Financial Condition Covenant, the Group Members shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the Financial Condition Covenant as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default of the Financial Condition Covenant which had occurred (or would have occurred) shall be deemed cured for purposes of Section 7.1.

(ii) Limitations on Exercise of Cure Right, etc. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (A) in no event shall the Borrower be entitled to exercise the Cure Right more than twice in any consecutive four quarter period or more than five times during the term of this Agreement, (B) the Cure Amount shall be no greater than the amount which, if added to Consolidated EBITDA for the Curable Period, would cause the Group Members to be in compliance with the Financial Condition Covenant for the Test Period ending on the last day of such Curable Period; provided that if the Cure Right is exercised prior to the date financial statements are required to be delivered for such Curable Period, then the Cure Amount shall be equal to the amount reasonably determined by the Borrower in good faith that is required for purposes of complying with the Financial Condition Covenant for such Test Period, (C) to the extent a fiscal quarter for which the Financial Condition Covenant is initially recalculated as a result of a Cure Right is included in the calculation of the Financial Condition Covenant in a subsequent fiscal period, the Cure Amount shall be included in the amount of Consolidated EBITDA for such fiscal quarter when calculating the Financial Condition Covenant for such subsequent fiscal period and (D) there shall be no pro forma or other reduction of Indebtedness by the Cure Amount for purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Condition Covenant for the fiscal quarter in respect of which such Cure Amount was made (other than, with respect to any future period, to the extent of any portion of such Cure Amount that is actually applied to repay Indebtedness). Upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a notice from the Borrower that it intends to exercise the Cure Right (the “Notice of Intent to Cure”), then, until the 15th Business Day subsequent to the date the certificate calculating such Financial Condition Covenant is required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(a) to which such Notice of Intent to Cure relates, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent (nor, in each case, any sub-agent therefor) nor any Lender shall exercise the right to accelerate the Loans or terminate the Commitments, and neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent (nor, in each case, any sub-agent therefor) nor any Lender shall exercise any right to foreclose on or take possession of the Collateral or exercise any other right or remedy under the Loan Documents, in each case, solely on the basis of a breach of the Financial Condition Covenant in respect of the period ending on the last day of such fiscal quarter and the ensuing Event of Default having occurred and being continuing under Section 8.1(c)(ii); provided that, without limiting the generality of Section 5.2, after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a Notice of Intent to Cure, no Revolving Lender or Issuing Lender shall be required to make any Revolving Loan or issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if an Event of Default under Section 8.1(c)(ii) exists solely on the basis of a breach of the Financial Condition Covenant unless and until the Cure Amount is actually received.

114

SECTION 9 THE AGENTS

9.1 Appointment. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints CS (or any successor appointed pursuant hereto) to act on its behalf as each Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes such Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article (other than Sections 9.1, 9.8(a), 9.9 and 9.11 and the first sentence of Section 9.12) are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders (including the Issuing Lenders) and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to any 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 is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

Each Issuing Lender shall act on behalf of the Revolving Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and each Issuing Lender shall have all of the benefits and immunities (a) provided to the Agents in this Article with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by such Issuing Lender in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in this Article and the definition of “Agent-Related Person” included such Issuing Lender with respect to such acts or omissions, and (b) as additionally provided herein with respect to each Issuing Lender.

9.2 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent (other than a Disqualified Institution).

The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of such Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Facilities as well as activities as such Agent. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that such Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. (a) No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent shall: (i) be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (ii) have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except (in the case of any Agent) discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated 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 no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and (iii) 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 Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

140

(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any other Secured Party for any action taken or not taken by it (i) 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 the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 8 and Section 10.1), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender, an Issuing Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”

(c) No Agent-Related Person 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 or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be granted by the Security Documents, (vi) the value or sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vii) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 5 or elsewhere herein, other than (in the case of the Administrative Agent) to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to it.

(d) 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 Institutions. 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 Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution.

9.4 Reliance by the Agents. 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, E-System, 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 any Borrowing or any draft under any Letter of Credit that by its terms shall 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 to any such Borrowing or Letter of Credit draft. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

141

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

9.6 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, each Lender shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person, any Issuing Lender or any Related Party with respect to such Person (in each case, to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower and without limiting the obligations of any Loan Party to do so) on a pro rata basis (determined as of the time that the applicable payment is sought based on each Lender’s ratable share of the sum of the Total Outstandings and unused Commitments at such time) and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person, any Issuing Lender or any Related Party with respect to such Person against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it (including any such unpaid Indemnified Liabilities in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); provided that (a) no Lender shall be liable for payment to any Agent-Related Person, any Issuing Lender or any Related Party with respect to such Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent-Related Person’s, any Issuing Lender’s or Related Party’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct (and no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section) and (b) to the extent any Issuing Lender is entitled to indemnification under this Section solely in its capacity and role as an Issuing Lender, only the Revolving Lenders shall be required to indemnify such Issuing Lender in accordance with this Section (determined as of the time that the applicable payment is sought based on each Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage thereof at such time). In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Liabilities, this Section 9.6 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in connection with preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights and responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is not reimbursed for such costs or expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower.

142

To the extent required by any applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any U.S. federal income tax. If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold U.S. federal income tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal income tax ineffective or for any other reason, or if the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding tax from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all reasonable costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred in connection therewith.

This Section 9.6 shall survive the occurrence of the Facility Termination Date and the resignation of the Administrative Agent.

9.7 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Any Agent 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 hereunder, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as such Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower 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.

9.8 Successor Agents.

(a) The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon ten days’ notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower. If the Person serving as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent is a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender, either the Required Lenders or the Borrower may, upon ten days’ notice, remove the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation or delivery of any such notice of removal, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent (which shall be a commercial bank or trust company with offices in the U.S. having combined capital and surplus in excess of $1,000,000,000) with the consent of the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(f) (with respect to the Borrower), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty days following the resignation or removal of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, then (a) in the case of any resignation, the resigning Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the consent of the Borrower to the extent required above) or (b) in the case of a removal, the Borrower may, after consulting with the Required Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation or removal shall become effective in accordance with such notice on such effective date, where (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent and

143

Collateral Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and Issuing Lender directly (and each Lender and each Issuing Lender will cooperate with the Borrower to enable the Borrower to take such actions), until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders or the Borrower, as applicable, appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (other than its obligations under Section 10.14 hereof). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed among the Borrower and such successor. After an Administrative Agent’s and Collateral Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 9 and Section 10.5 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Disqualified Institution (nor any Affiliate thereof) may be appointed as a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent.

(b) Any resignation by, or removal of, CS, as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.8 shall also constitute its resignation as an Issuing Lender. If CS resigns as an Issuing Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an Issuing Lender and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto, including the right to require the Lenders to make Loans or fund risk participations in unreimbursed amounts pursuant to Section 3.4. Upon the appointment by the Borrower of a successor Issuing Lender hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Lender other than a Defaulting Lender), (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Lender and (b) the retiring Issuing Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (c) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit.

9.9 Authorization to Execute other Loan Documents; Collateral.

(a) Each Lender (and each other Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) authorizes the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent to enter into each of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, any intercreditor or subordination agreement contemplated by the terms hereof, each Joinder Agreement and each Extension Agreement) (other than this Agreement) and to take all action contemplated by such Loan Documents and agrees that it shall be bound by such Loan Documents as if a signatory thereto. Each Lender (and each other Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) agrees (except to the extent provided in Section 9.8(a) following the resignation of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent) that no Secured Party, other than the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent acting on behalf of all Secured Parties, shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any Loan Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, upon the terms of the Loan Documents.

144

(b) Each Lender (and each other Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) hereby authorizes and instructs the Collateral Agent to release any Lien or Guarantee Obligation granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral and to subordinate any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document as contemplated by Section 10.15 hereof. Upon request by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations pursuant to this Section 9.9.

(c) No Agent shall be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall any Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

9.10 Lead Arrangers. None of the Lead Arrangers, Syndication Agent or Joint Bookrunners identified on the cover page of this Agreement shall have any rights, powers, obligations, liabilities, responsibilities or duties under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Lender hereunder. Without limiting any other provision of this Article, none of the Lead Arrangers, Syndication Agent or Joint Bookrunners in their respective capacities as such shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender (including any Issuing Lender) or any other Person by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

9.11 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim; Credit Bidding. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation 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 any such Loan Party) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) 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, all L/C Obligations and all other Secured 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, the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the other Secured Parties and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.9 and 10.5) 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, each Issuing Lender and each other Secured Party accepting the benefits of the Collateral to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders and the other Secured Parties, 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 Sections 2.9 and 10.5.

145

The parties hereto and each other Secured Party accepting the benefits of the Collateral hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, based upon the instruction of the Required Lenders, to (a) credit bid and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, including under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any similar Laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) credit bid and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral at any other sale or foreclosure conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable Law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Secured Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Secured Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims being estimated for such purpose if the fixing or liquidation thereof would not unduly delay the ability of the Administrative Agent to credit bid and purchase at such sale or other disposition of the Collateral and, if such claims cannot be estimated without unduly delaying the ability of the Administrative Agent to credit bid, then such claims shall be disregarded, not credit bid, and not entitled to any interest in the asset or assets purchased by means of such credit bid) and the Secured Parties whose Secured Obligations are credit bid shall be entitled to receive interests (ratably based upon the proportion of their Secured Obligations credit bid in relation to the aggregate amount of Secured Obligations so credit bid) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Capital Stock of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). Upon request by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Borrower at any time, the Secured Parties will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.11.

9.12 Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, no holder of Cash Management Obligations or Hedge Counterparty that obtains the benefit of the provisions of Section 2.18(f), the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) (or to notice of or to consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of the provisions hereof or of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any Security Document) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9 to the contrary, no Agent shall be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Secured Obligations arising under Cash Management Obligations and Specified Hedge Agreements except to the extent expressly provided herein and unless the such Agent has received written notice of such Secured Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable holder of Cash Management Obligations or Hedge Counterparty, as the case may be. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Secured Obligations arising under Cash Management Documents and Specified Hedge Agreements in the case of a Facility Termination Date.

9.13 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

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all the Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders, except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended, or the maturity of any of its Loan may not be extended, the rate of interest on any of its Loans may not be reduced and the principal amount of any of its Loans may not be forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Defaulting Lender) and (y) any amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of all the Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than the other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

(b) Each waiver or consent under any Loan Document shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on any Loan Party shall entitle any Loan Party to any notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. No failure on the part of any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

(c) Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Agents and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Agents shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing unless limited by the terms of such waiver, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent on any such subsequent or other Default or Event of Default.

148

(d) In addition, notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified any ambiguity, mistake, defect, inconsistency, obvious error or any error or omission of a technical nature or any necessary or desirable technical changes, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision, and, in each case, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably (or less than ratably) in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans, the Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and/or the Majority Facility Lenders, as applicable.

(f) Upon notice thereof by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent with respect to the inclusion of any Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant, this Agreement shall be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent without the need to obtain the consent of any Lender to include such Previously Absent Financial Maintenance Covenant on the date of the incurrence of the applicable Indebtedness to the extent required by the terms of such definition or section.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.1 or any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Loan Document:

(i) the Borrower and any Agent may, without the input or consent of any Lender, amend, supplement and/or waive any Security Document executed in connection with this Agreement to (A) comply with any Law (including any applicable Gaming Regulations) or (B) cause any such Security Document to be consistent with this Agreement and/or the relevant other Loan Documents, and

(ii) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend, restate, amend and restate or otherwise modify any intercreditor, subordination, collateral trust agreement or similar agreement, in each case, as set forth in such agreement.

Other than to the extent required to be paid on the Closing Date, all amounts due under this paragraph (a) shall be payable by the Borrower within 30 days of receipt of an invoice relating thereto, setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail and together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement requests. Except with respect to stamp, recording and similar Other Taxes (and, in any event, excluding any such Other Taxes in respect of any assignments or participations), this Section 10.5(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes, which shall be governed by Sections 2.19 and 2.20.

(b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify or reimburse each Lender, each Issuing Lender, each Agent, the Lead Arrangers and their respective affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, trustees, employees, advisors, agents, controlling Persons and successors and assigns (each, an “Indemnitee”) for, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all other losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses arising out of any actions, investigations, judgments or suits of any kind or nature whatsoever, arising out of or in connection with any claim, investigation, action or proceeding relating to or otherwise with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents including, without limitation, any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to, or any Environmental Claims related to, the operations of Holdings, the Borrower, or any of its Subsidiaries (excluding with regard to any events occurring or circumstances existing solely after the Facility Termination Date) and the fees and disbursements and other charges of legal counsel in connection with claims, investigations, actions or proceedings regarding the foregoing (limited to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of a single firm of counsel for all Indemnitees, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or

151

perceived conflict of interest, one additional firm of counsel for all similarly affected Indemnitees), and, if necessary, by a single firm of local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction (which may include a single firm of special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all Indemnitees taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional firm of local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction for similarly affected Indemnitees)) (all the foregoing in this clause (b), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”) regardless of whether any such Indemnitee is a party thereto, whether or not such proceedings are brought by Holdings, the Borrower, any Subsidiaries, Affiliates, equity holders, or creditor of the Borrower, Holdings or any other person; provided that the Borrower shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities have resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision), (ii) a material breach by such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision) or (iii) any proceeding between and among Indemnified Parties (other than any claims against an Indemnitee in its capacity as an Agent or Lead Arranger) that does not involve an act or omission by Holdings, the Borrower or any other Subsidiary of the Borrower; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent, Issuing Lenders, and other Agents, to the extent acting in their capacity as such, shall remain indemnified in respect of such proceeding to the extent that neither the exception set forth in clause (i) of the immediately preceding proviso nor the exception set forth in clause (ii) of the immediately preceding proviso applies to such Person at such time. Each Indemnitee shall be obligated to refund or return any and all amounts paid by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.5(b) to such Indemnitee for any fees, expenses, or damages to the extent such Indemnitee is not entitled to payment of such amounts in accordance with the terms hereof. All amounts due under this paragraph (b) shall be payable by the Borrower within 30 days (x) after written demand thereof, in the case of any indemnification obligations and (y) in the case of reimbursement of costs and expenses, after receipt of an invoice relating thereto, setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail and together with backup documentation supporting such reimbursement requests.

(c) The Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), but if any proceeding is settled with the Borrower’s written consent, or if there is a final judgment against any Indemnitee in any such proceeding, the Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee to the extent and in the manner set forth in Section 10.5(b) above. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if at any time any Indemnitee shall have requested in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement that the Borrower reimburse such Indemnitee for legal or other expenses in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any proceeding, the Borrower shall be liable for any settlement effected without the Borrower’s prior written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than sixty (60) days after receipt by the Borrower of such request for reimbursement and (ii) the Borrower shall not have reimbursed such Indemnitee in accordance with such request in the manner and to the extent set forth in this Agreement prior to the date of such settlement. The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the affected Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnitee unless (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) such settlement does not include any statement as to any admission of fault or culpability.

152

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable Law, no party to this Agreement shall assert, and each party hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to actual or direct damages) arising out of, in connection with or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated herein or therein, any Loan or any Letter of Credit or the use of proceeds thereof, except, in the case of a claim by any Indemnitee against the Borrower, to the extent such damages would otherwise be subject to indemnification pursuant to the terms of Section 10.5(b).

(e) Without duplication of clause (a) above, the Borrower further agrees to pay the reasonable documented out-of-pocket legal fees of gaming counsel for the Agents in Missouri, Nevada, Colorado and Iowa and any other relevant state or other jurisdiction and all reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs (including reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs of investigation) associated with any qualification (or exemption or waiver therefrom) of any Lender under, or compliance of any Lender with, the Gaming Regulations in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall, subject to the Borrower’s rights under Section 10.6(j), be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower solely for tax purposes, and solely with respect to the actions described in this Section 10.6(b) and Section 2.8, shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.2 (A) a record within the meaning of Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations (the “Register”) that identifies each Lender, including the Administrative Agent, of an interest in a portion of the Obligations, including the name and address of the Lender, and each Lender’s right to principal and stated interest, and each Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to participate in each Loan and any assignment of any such interest, obligation or right and (B) accounts in the applicable Register in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record (1) the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, as applicable (and each change thereto pursuant to Section 2.24 and Section 10.6), (2) the Commitments of each applicable Lender, (3) the amount of each Loan and each funding of any participation described in clause (A) above, for Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (4) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or paid with respect to Loans recorded in the applicable Register, (5) the amount of the Reimbursement Obligations due and payable or paid and (6) any other payment received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrowers and its application to the Obligations.

The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agents 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.

155

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs

(c) (i) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans to any Purchasing Borrower Party or any Investor Affiliated Lender (collectively, “Affiliated Lenders”) on a non-pro rata basis (A) through “Dutch auctions” open to all Lenders holding the relevant Term Loans, on a pro rata basis or (B) through open market purchases, in each case with respect to clauses (A) and (B), without the consent of the Administrative Agent or any other Person; provided that:

(B) the assigning Lender and Affiliated Lender purchasing such Term Loans, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment and assumption agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit M hereto or such other form as reasonably approved by the Administrative Agent (an “Affiliated Lender Assignment Agreement”) in lieu of an Assignment and Assumption;

(C) for the avoidance of doubt, Lenders shall not be permitted to assign Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans to any Affiliated Lender;

156

(G) any purchases or assignments of Loans by an Affiliated Lender made through “Dutch auctions” shall be conducted pursuant to procedures to be established by the Administrative Agent that are consistent with this Section 10.6(c)(i) and are otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower;

(H) by its acquisition of Term Loans, each relevant Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to have acknowledged and agreed that the Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender shall be disregarded in both the numerator and denominator in the calculation of any Required Lender, Majority Facility Lender or other Lender vote (and the Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to be voted pro rata along with the other Lenders that are not an Affiliated Lender); provided that (x) such Affiliated Lender shall have the right to vote (and the Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender shall not be so disregarded) with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action that requires the vote of all Lenders or all Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby, as the case may be, and (y) no amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action shall (1) disproportionately affect such Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender as compared to other Lenders of the same Class that are not Affiliated Lenders or (2) deprive any Affiliated Lender of its share of any payments which the Lenders are entitled to share on a pro rata basis hereunder, in each case without the consent of such Affiliated Lender; and

(I) no Affiliated Lender shall be required to represent or warrant that it is not in possession of material non-public information with respect to any Parent Company, the Borrower and/or any Subsidiary thereof and/or their respective securities in connection with any assignment or purchase permitted by this Section 10.6(c).

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Term Loans to any Debt Fund Affiliate, and any Debt Fund Affiliate may, from time to time, purchase Term Loans (x) on a non-pro rata basis through “Dutch auctions” open to all applicable Lenders or (y) on a non-pro rata basis through open market purchases without the consent of the Administrative Agent or any other Person, in each case, notwithstanding the requirements set forth in subclauses (A) through (I) of clause (c)(i) above; provided that the Term Loans of all Debt Fund Affiliates shall not account for more than 49.9% of the amounts included in determining whether the Required Lenders or Majority

157

Facility Lenders have (A) consented to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or subject to the immediately succeeding paragraph, any plan of reorganization pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document. Any Term Loans acquired by any Debt Fund Affiliate and/or Investor Affiliated Lender may (but shall not be required to) be contributed to the Borrower for purposes of cancelling such Indebtedness (it being understood that any Term Loans so contributed shall be retired and cancelled immediately upon the contribution thereof); provided that upon any such cancellation, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans shall be deemed reduced, as of the date of such contribution, by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so contributed and cancelled, and each principal repayment installment with respect to the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.8(a) shall be reduced pro rata by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans so contributed and cancelled.

(d) [Reserved.]

(e) Each Investor Affiliated Lender hereby agrees that if any Loan Party or any of their assets shall be subject to any voluntary or involuntary proceeding commenced under the Bankruptcy Code (“Bankruptcy Proceedings”), (i) such Investor Affiliated Lender shall not take any step or action in such Bankruptcy Proceeding to object to, impede or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by the Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third party that is supported by the Administrative Agent) in relation to such Investor Affiliated Lender’s claim with respect to its Term Loans (“Term Loan Claim”) (including, without limitation, objecting to any debtor in possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition (including under 363 of the Bankruptcy Code), compromise, or plan of reorganization) so long as such Investor Affiliated Lender is treated in connection with such exercise or action the same or better terms as the other Lenders holding Term Loans and (ii) with respect to any matter requiring the vote of Lenders holding Term Loans during the pendency of a Bankruptcy Proceeding (including, without limitation, voting on any plan of reorganization), the Loans held by such Investor Affiliated Lender (and any Term Loan Claim with respect thereto) shall be deemed to be voted in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders holding Term Loans who are not Investor Affiliated Lenders, so long as such Investor Affiliated Lender is treated in connection with the exercise of such right or taking of such action on the same or better terms as the other Lenders holding Term Loans. Each Investor Affiliated Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Investor Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact with full authority in the place and stead of such Investor Affiliated Lender and in the name of such Investor Affiliated Lender, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this clause (e).

(f) Upon any contribution of Term Loans to the Borrower or any Subsidiary and upon any purchase of Term Loans by a Purchasing Borrower Party, subject to Section 10.6(c)(i)(C), (A) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of such Term Loans shall automatically be cancelled and retired by the Borrower on the date of such contribution or purchase (and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, with respect to a contribution of Term Loans, any applicable contributing Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, or such other form as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, in respect thereof pursuant to which the respective Lender assigns its interest in such Loans to the Borrower for immediate cancellation) and (B) the Administrative Agent shall record such cancellation or retirement in the Register.

158

(g) In no event shall the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such, be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender is an Investor Affiliated Lender or Debt Fund Affiliate nor shall Administrative Agent be obligated to monitor the number of Investor Affiliated Lenders or Debt Fund Affiliates or the aggregate amount of Term Loans held by Investor Affiliated Lenders or Debt Fund Affiliates.

(h) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than to any natural person) (a “Participant”), but in any event not to a Person that the Administrative Agent has identified in a notice to the Lenders as a Defaulting Lender, in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 9.6 with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participants. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) is described in the first proviso of Section 10.1(a), and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (h)(i) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.19, 2.20 and 2.21 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7(b) as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 10.7(a) as though it were a Lender.

(i) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.19 or 2.20 than the applicable Lender and their respective successors and assigns would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Representative Borrower’s consent to such participation (acknowledging the possibility of payment of such greater payment). No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.20 unless such Participant complies with Section 2.20(e) or (f), as (and to the extent) applicable, as if such Participant were a Lender; provided that any documentation under those sections shall be provided by the Participant to the Participating Lender and the Representative Borrower.

(ii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) 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, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender 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.

159

(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of or notice to the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (other than to any natural person) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to (i) a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank or (ii) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Lender’s Capital Stock, voting trust certificates, bonds, debentures, instruments and other evidence of Indebtedness, and all warrants, options and other rights to acquire the foregoing, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in this paragraph (i).

(j) Disqualified Institutions; non-Qualified Persons.

(i) No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that (x) was a Disqualified Institution or (y) not a Qualified Person as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning or participating, as applicable, Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign or participate in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Borrower has consented to such assignment in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee that becomes a Disqualified Institution or a non-Qualified Person after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Institution”), (x) such assignee shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender and (y) the execution by the Borrower of an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Institution or non-Qualified Person. Any assignment in violation of this clause (j)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (j) shall apply.

(ii) If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Institution, its Affiliates or any Person who has represented that it was a Qualified Person as of the relevant Trade Date (but in fact was not a Qualified Person as of the relevant Trade Date) without the Borrower’s prior written consent in violation of clause (j)(i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Institution or an Affiliate thereof after the applicable Trade Date, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution or Affiliate or non-Qualified Person, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate any Revolving Commitment of such Disqualified Institution or Affiliate or such non-Qualified Person, as applicable, and repay all obligations of the Borrower owing to such Disqualified Institution or Affiliate or such non-Qualified Person, as applicable, in connection with such Revolving Commitment, (B) in the case of outstanding Term Loans held by Disqualified Institutions or their respective Affiliates or such non-Qualified Person, purchase or prepay such Term Loan by paying the lower of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution or its Affiliate or such

160

non-Qualified Person, as applicable, paid to acquire such Term Loans, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder and/or (C) require such Disqualified Institution, Affiliate or non-Qualified Person, as applicable, to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 10.6), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the lower of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution or its Affiliates or such non-Qualified Person, as applicable, paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations of such Term Loans, in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder; provided that if any Lender (including any Disqualified Institution or Affiliate thereof or any non-Qualified Person that becomes a Lender) does not execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption to the Administrative Agent within one Business Day after having received a request therefor, such Lender (including any Disqualified Institution or Affiliate or any non-Qualified Person thereof that becomes a Lender) hereby grants to the Borrower an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender, as assignor, any Assignment and Assumption necessary to effectuate any assignment in full of such Lender’s interests hereunder and the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in advance of any exercise of such power of attorney.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Institutions or any of their Affiliates (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Institution or its Affiliates, as applicable, will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws, each Disqualified Institution or its Affiliates, as applicable, party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws, (2) if such Disqualified Institution or its Affiliates, as applicable, does vote on such plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation pursuant to any Debtor Relief Laws notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such Plan in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other Debtor Relief Laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).

(iv) The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent, to provide the list of Disqualified Institutions provided by the Borrower and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) to each Lender requesting the same.

161

(k) It is hereby agreed and understood that the Agents, the Lenders and their respective assignees may be required by certain Gaming Authorities to obtain a license or a finding of suitability in order to remain or become a Lender under this Agreement. If any Gaming Authority shall determine that any Lender is not qualified as an approved financial source or otherwise does not meet the standards pursuant to the Gaming Regulations in the relevant jurisdiction, or any Gaming Authority with jurisdiction over the Gaming Business shall determine that any Lender does not meet its suitability standards (in any such case, a “Former Lender”), the Administrative Agent or the Borrower shall have the right (but not the duty) to designate a lender or lenders (in each case, a “Substitute Lender”, which may be any Lender or Lenders that agree to become a Substitute Lender and with the consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender and the Borrower to the extent any such consent is provided for in Section 10.6(b)) that has agreed to assume the rights and obligations of the Former Lender, subject to receipt by the Administrative Agent of evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent that such Substitute Lender is a Qualified Person, or has a reasonable basis for a belief that the Substitute Lender is eligible to be a Qualified Person, and in compliance with Gaming Regulations. The Substitute Lender shall assume the rights and obligations of the Former Lender under this Agreement pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption, which assumption shall be required to comply with, and shall become effective in accordance with, the provisions of Section 10.6(b); provided that the purchase price to be paid by the Substitute Lender to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Former Lender for such assumption shall equal the sum of (i) the unpaid principal amount of any Notes held or Loans made by the Former Lender plus accrued interest thereon, plus (ii) the Former Lender’s pro rata share of the aggregate amount of drawings under all Letters of Credit that have not been reimbursed by the Borrower, plus accrued interest thereon, plus (iii) such Former Lender’s pro rata share of accrued fees owing to such Former Lender to the date of the assumption; and, provided, further, the Borrower shall pay all Obligations owing to the Former Lender under the Loan Documents (including all obligations, if any, owing pursuant to Section 2.21, but excluding (x) contingent Obligations for which no claim has been asserted and (y) those amounts in respect of which the purchase price is being paid as provided above). Each Lender agrees that if it becomes a Former Lender, upon payment to it by the Borrower of all such amounts, if any, owing to it under the Loan Documents, it will execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption upon payment of such purchase price.

(l) Notwithstanding the provisions of clause (k) of this Section 10.6, but subject to applicable Gaming Regulations, if any Lender becomes a Former Lender, and if the Administrative Agent or the Borrower fails to find a Substitute Lender pursuant to clause (k) of this Section 10.6 within any time period specified by the appropriate Gaming Authority for the withdrawal of a Former Lender (the “Withdrawal Period”), the Borrower shall immediately (i) prepay in full the outstanding principal amount of each Note held or Loan made by such Former Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the earlier of (x) the date of payment or (y) the last day of any Withdrawal Period, and (ii) at the option of the Borrower either (A) place an amount equal to such Former Lender’s Revolving Percentage in each Letter of Credit in a separate cash collateral account with the Administrative Agent for each outstanding Letter of Credit, which amount will be applied by the Administrative Agent to satisfy the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations to the respective Issuing Lender in respect of drawings under the applicable Letter of Credit or (B) terminate the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Former Lender at which time the other Lenders’ Revolving Percentages will be automatically adjusted as a result thereof; provided, that the option specified in this clause (B) may only be exercised if, immediately after giving effect thereto no Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans, when added to the product of (a) such Lender’s Revolving Percentage and (b) the aggregate amount of all L/C Obligations then outstanding, would exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment at such time.

(m) Subject to the last sentence of this Section 10.6(m), each Lender agrees that all participations and assignments made hereunder shall be subject to, and made in compliance with, all Gaming Regulations applicable to lenders. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that no Lender or Agent shall have the responsibility of determining whether or not a potential assignee of such Lender would be a Qualified Person under the Gaming Regulations of any such jurisdiction (provided that any relevant Gaming Authority may nonetheless determine such assignee not to be a Qualified Person).

162

10.7 Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by setoff, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8.1(f), or otherwise), other than in connection with assignments hereunder, 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 Obligations, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Obligations, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral 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 Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, with the consent of the Administrative Agent upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) after the expiration of any cure or grace periods, to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final but excluding trust accounts, employee benefit accounts, payroll, xxxxx cash, tax and withholding accounts and the like), 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 the Borrower; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.26 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders and (y) such Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or by electronic mail as a “.pdf” or “.tif” attachment shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that 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. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Lender, then such provision shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

163

10.10 Integration; Survival. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. The provisions of Section 2.19, Section 2.20, Section 2.21 and Section 10.5, Section 10.14 and Section 9 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

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

10.12 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or tort or otherwise, in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in a forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect (i) any right that any Agent may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Secured Obligations or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, (ii) any party from bringing any legal action or proceeding in any jurisdiction for the recognition and enforcement of any judgment or (iii) if all such New York courts decline jurisdiction over any Person or decline (or in the case of the Federal District Court, lack) jurisdiction over any subject matter of such action or proceeding, a legal action or proceeding from being brought with respect thereto in another court having jurisdiction;

(b) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in clause (a) of this Section 10.12. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court;

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to it at its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to xxx in any other jurisdiction; and

164

(e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

10.13 Acknowledgments. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

(b) neither the Agents nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Agents and Lenders, on one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

(c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among the Borrower and the Lenders.

165

10.15 Release of Collateral and Guarantee Obligations; Subordination of Liens.

(a) The Lenders and each Agent (and each other Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) hereby irrevocably agree that the Liens granted to the Secured Parties by the Loan Parties on any Collateral shall be automatically released (i) in full, as set forth in clause (b) below, (ii) upon the Disposition of such Collateral to any Person other than another Loan Party, to the extent such Disposition is permitted hereunder (and the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iii) to the extent such Collateral is comprised of property leased to a Loan Party by a Person that is not a Loan Party, upon termination or expiration of such lease, (iv) if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other percentage of the Lenders whose consent may be required in accordance with Section 10.1), (v) to the extent the property constituting such Collateral is owned by any Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its Guarantee Obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement so long as such Guarantor is no longer a Loan Party hereunder, and (vi) to the extent such Collateral ceases to be Collateral. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Secured Obligations or any Liens (other than those being released) upon (or obligations (other than those being released) of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral except to the extent otherwise released in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents. Additionally, the Lenders (and each other Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) hereby irrevocably agree that the Guarantors shall be released from the Guarantees upon consummation of any transaction permitted hereunder resulting in such Subsidiary ceasing to constitute a Restricted Subsidiary, or otherwise becoming an Excluded Subsidiary, in each case, solely to the extent such Subsidiary ceasing to constitute a Restricted Subsidiary or otherwise becoming an Excluded Subsidiary is not prohibited by this Agreement, or, in the case of a Successor Holdings, the prior Holdings shall be released in accordance with the conditions set forth in Section 7.11. The Lenders (and each other Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, at the expense of the Borrower, to execute and deliver any instruments, documents, and agreements necessary or desirable to evidence and confirm the release of any Guarantor or Collateral pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, all without the further consent or joinder of any Lender. Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan Document relating to any such Collateral or Guarantor shall no longer be deemed to be repeated solely with respect to such Collateral or Guarantor.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, upon the Facility Termination Date, upon request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Secured Party) take such actions, at the expense of the Borrower, as shall be reasonably requested to evidence termination or release of its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all obligations under any Loan Document. Any such release of Obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such Obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

166

(c) The Lenders (and each other Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) hereby agree that the Agents are authorized to, at the request of the Borrower, enter into subordination, intercreditor and/or similar agreements to subordinate the Liens of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral to Permitted Liens with respect to Indebtedness.

10.16 Waivers of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

10.17 USA PATRIOT ACT. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender and Issuing Lender hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. Each Loan Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such other actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender or Issuing Lender in order to assist the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders and Issuing Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act.

10.18 Lender Action. Each Lender (and each other Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Collateral) agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents or the Specified Hedge Agreements or the Cash Management Documents (including the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Loan Party, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

10.19 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Secured Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to any Agent or Lenders (or to an Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or any Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

10.20 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which may be treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Interest Charges”), shall not exceed the maximum lawful rate of interest (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged,

167

taken, received or reserved by a Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law. If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Interest Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 10.20 shall be cumulated and the Interest Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender. Thereafter, interest hereunder shall be paid at the rate(s) of interest and in the manner provided in this Agreement, unless and until the rate of interest again exceeds the Maximum Rate, and at that time this Section 10.20 shall again apply.

10.21 Application of Gaming Regulations. This Agreement and the Security Documents are subject to the Gaming Regulations, including Liquor Laws. Without limiting the foregoing, the Agents and the Lenders acknowledge that rights, remedies and powers in or under this Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not violate any applicable provisions of the Gaming Regulations and Liquor Laws and only to the extent that required approvals (including prior approvals) are obtained from the requisite Gaming Authorities and such other Governmental Authorities. Each of the Lenders and the Agents agrees, at the request of the Borrower or the respective Gaming Authority, to cooperate with the applicable Gaming Authorities in connection with the administration of their regulatory jurisdiction over the Borrower to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender or Agent and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, including the provision of such documents or other information as may be requested by any such Gaming Authorities relating to the Borrower, any of its Affiliates or the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower expressly authorizes, and will cause each other Loan Party to authorize, each Agent and each Lender to cooperate with the applicable Gaming Authorities as described above and releases each Agent and each Lender from any liability for any such cooperation or related disclosure. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, all actions taken by each Lender and each Agent pursuant to this Section 10.21 shall be at sole reasonable expense of the Borrower, who hereby agrees to reimburse all reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by each Lender and each Agent in connection with such actions in accordance with Section 10.5(e).

10.22 No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. In connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Agents, the Lenders and the Lead Arrangers are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Lead Arrangers, on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Agents, the Lenders and the Lead Arrangers is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) neither any Agent nor any Lender or Lead Arranger has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions

(b) Anything herein or in any other Loan Document, Specified Hedge Agreement or Cash Management Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall not exceed the maximum amount which could be paid by such Guarantor without rendering this guarantee void or voidable as would otherwise be held or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in any action or proceeding involving any state or Federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws relating to the insolvency of debtors (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 2.2) (the “Maximum Amount”).

(c) Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor on the date hereof under this Agreement without impairing the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or affecting the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party hereunder. It is the intention of each Guarantor and the Secured Parties that each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall be at all times, but not in excess of, the Maximum Amount.

(d) The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until the Facility Termination Date.

(e) Except as provided in Section 8.15, no payment made by the Borrower, any of the other Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party from the Borrower, any of the other Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations), remain liable for the Guaranteed Obligations up to the Maximum Amount of such Guarantor hereunder until the Facility Termination Date.

2.2 Right of Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that, to the extent that a Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment. Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3. The provisions of this Section 2.2 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties for the Guaranteed Obligations up to the Maximum Amount of such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

2.3 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Guarantor, and such Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such rights, in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until the Facility Termination Date. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time before the Facility Termination Date, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, promptly upon receipt (but in any event, within 1 Business Day) by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor to the Collateral Agent, if required), to be applied against the Secured Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Collateral Agent may determine.

2.4 Amendments, etc. with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that no change in the nature or terms of the Guaranteed Obligations or any of the Loan Documents, or other agreements, instruments or contracts evidencing, related to or attendant with the Guaranteed Obligations (including any novation),

including, without limitation, the taking of further security for the Guaranteed Obligations, shall discharge all or any part of the liabilities and obligations of such Guarantor pursuant to this guarantee, and each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations made by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may be rescinded by the Collateral Agent or such other Secured Party and any of the Guaranteed Obligations continued, and the Guaranteed Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, and the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith (including, without limitation any Specified Hedge Agreement or Cash Management Document) may be, amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of set-off at any time held by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Guaranteed Obligations or for the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor agrees that, until the Facility Termination Date, such Guarantor’s undertakings hereunder shall not be released, in whole or in part, by any action or thing which might, but for this paragraph, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor, or by reason of any waiver, omission of the Secured Parties, or any of them, or their failure to proceed promptly or otherwise, or by reason of any action taken or omitted by the Secured Parties, or any of them, whether or not such action or failure to act varies or increases the risk of, or affects the rights or remedies of, such Guarantor or by reason of any further dealings between the Borrower, on the one hand, and any Secured Party, on the other hand, or any other guarantor or surety, and such Guarantor hereby expressly waives and surrenders any defense to its liability hereunder (other than a defense of payment or performance in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations or release of such Guarantor pursuant to Section 8.15 hereof), or any right of counterclaim, cross-claim, or offset of any nature or description which it may have or may exist against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party based upon, and shall be deemed to have consented to, any of the foregoing acts, omissions, things, agreements or waivers.

2.5 Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2; the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2; and all dealings between the Borrower and any of the other Guarantors, on the one hand, with respect to the Loan Documents and the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives each of the following: diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default, dishonor, or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or any of the other Guarantors with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; notice of acceptance of the guarantee of such Guarantor contained in this Section 2, and all other defenses of a surety available by law but not otherwise mentioned (other than a defense of payment or performance in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations). Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee of such Guarantor contained in this Section 2, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, is a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of

payment and performance and not of collection, without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, Specified Hedge Agreement or Cash Management Document, any of the Guaranteed Obligations 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 the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations or release of such Guarantor pursuant to Section 8.15 hereof) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower or any other Person against the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (other than a defense of payment or performance in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations or release of such Guarantor pursuant to Section 8.15 hereof) (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or any other Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Group Members from the Guaranteed Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee of such Guarantor contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure or delay by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies, to exercise any right, power, or privilege, to collect any payments from the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person, to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee, or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, shall not act as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Secured Party, shall not be construed as a course of dealing, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

2.6 Reinstatement.

Each Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments hereunder will be paid to the Collateral Agent (x) without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars at the Funding Office and (y) free and clear of, and without deduction for, any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes on the same terms and to the same extent that payments by the Borrower are required to be made pursuant to the terms of Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement, applying the provisions of Section 2.20 of the Credit Agreement to such Guarantor and the Collateral Agent mutatis mutandis.

Each Guarantor (a) assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition and assets of the Borrower and each other Loan Party, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and (b) agrees that none of the Collateral Agent or the other Secured Parties will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.

5.1 Covenants in Credit Agreement. In the case of each Grantor that is not party to the Credit Agreement, to the extent applicable, such Grantor shall comply with the covenants in Section 6 and Section 7 of the Credit Agreement to the extent applicable to such Grantor.

5.2 Investment Property. (a) In the case of each Grantor which is an Issuer, such Issuer agrees that (i) it will be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Pledged Securities issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it and (ii) the terms of Sections 6.3 and 6.8 shall apply to it, mutatis mutandis, with respect to all actions that may be required of it pursuant to Section 6.3 or 6.8 with respect to the Pledged Securities issued by it.

(b) To the extent any Investment Property (x) constitutes interests in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled now or in the future by any Grantor and (y) is a “Security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the New York UCC and the pledge hereunder of which is governed by Article 8 of the New York UCC, such interest shall be certificated and each such interest shall at all times hereafter continue to be such a security and represented by such certificate. Each Grantor further acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to any interest in any limited liability company or limited partnership controlled now or in the future by such Grantor and pledged hereunder that is not a “Security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the New York UCC, such Grantor shall at no time elect to treat any such interest as a “Security” within the meaning of Article 8 of the New York UCC, nor shall such interest be represented by a certificate, unless such Grantor provides written notification to the Collateral Agent of such election and such interest is thereafter represented by a certificate that is promptly (but in any event within 30 days after the issuance of such certificate (or such later time as may be agreed by the Collateral Agent)) delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms hereof.

(c) Any Instrument, Certificated Security (other than in respect of the Capital Stock of any Subsidiary which is addressed in Section 6.8(c) of the Credit Agreement), Security or Chattel Paper in excess of $2,500,000 shall be promptly, in any event, within the later of (i) the receipt of all requisite approvals under the applicable Gaming Regulations and (ii) sixty days of the receipt thereof, delivered to the Collateral Agent indorsed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent to be held as Collateral; provided that if the pledge of the Capital Stock of any Subsidiary acquired or created after the Closing Date requires approval under applicable Gaming Regulations, the Grantor shall be required to pledge such Capital Stock only if the requisite approvals from the applicable Gaming Authorities are obtained after the exercise of its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such approvals (and the Grantor agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such approvals). To the extent that any Investment Property in any Subsidiary is an Uncertificated Security, except to which the issuer thereof is a Grantor with respect to which the immediately succeeding sentence applies, each Grantor shall, subject to applicable Gaming Regulations and receipt of Required Gaming Approvals, obtain an agreement giving the Collateral Agent “control”, within the meaning of Section 8-106 of the UCC, from each issuer of Uncertificated Securities promptly (but in any event, within 2 days of the issuing of such Uncertificated Security (or such later time as may be agreed by the Collateral Agent)) included in the Collateral of such Grantor. For purposes of Section 8-106 of the UCC, subject to applicable Gaming Regulations and receipt of Required Gaming Approvals, each Grantor that is an Issuer of Uncertificated

Securities hereby agrees to comply with any “instruction”, within the meaning of Section 8-102 of the UCC, received by it from the Collateral Agent without further consent by such other Grantor.

If any sums of money or property so paid or distributed in respect of Investment Property shall be received by such Grantor, such Grantor shall, until such money or property is paid or delivered to the Collateral Agent, hold such money or property in trust for Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, as additional collateral security for the Obligations.

5.3 Perfected Security Interests; Defense of Claims. Each Grantor agrees to notify the Collateral Agent of any change (i) in the legal name of such Grantor, (ii) in the identity or type of organization or corporate structure of such Grantor, (iii) in the jurisdiction of organization of such Grantor, (iv) in the chief executive office or in the “location” (as determined in accordance with Section 9-307 of the New York UCC) of such Grantor or (v) in the organizational identification number of such Grantor, in each case, prior to the effectiveness thereof (or such later date as may be agreed by the Collateral Agent).

5.4 Commercial Tort Claims. Each Grantor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent in writing upon incurring or otherwise obtaining a Commercial Tort Claim in an amount exceeding $5,000,000 against any third party after the date hereof and, upon request of the Collateral Agent, (i) promptly amend Schedule 4 attached hereto, (ii) authorize the filing of additional, or amendments to existing, UCC financing statements and (iii) do such other acts or things deemed reasonably necessary or desirable by the Collateral Agent to give the Collateral Agent a first priority, perfected security interest in any such Commercial Tort Claim.

Each Grantor agrees to give the Collateral Agent written notice of the acquisition or creation of any Intellectual Property at the times required pursuant to Section 6.8(a) of the Credit Agreement (for purposes thereof, such notice being deemed necessary in order for the Collateral Agent to have a perfected Lien on such Intellectual Property).

SECTION 6. REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

Subject to compliance with applicable Gaming Regulations and receipt of Required Gaming Approvals:

6.1 Certain Matters Relating to Receivables

(a) At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon the Collateral Agent’s reasonable request and at the expense of the relevant Grantor, such Grantor shall use its best efforts to cause independent public accountants or others satisfactory to the Collateral Agent to furnish to the Collateral Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Receivables.

(b) If required by the Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Receivables, when collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within three Business Days (or such later time as may be agreed by the Collateral Agent)) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent if required, in a Collateral Account maintained under the sole dominion and control of the Collateral Agent, subject to withdrawal by the Collateral Agent for the account of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties only as provided in Section 6.6 and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Receivables shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit.

(c) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and at the Collateral Agent’s request, each Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent all documents evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions which gave rise to the Receivables, including, without limitation, all orders, invoices and shipping receipts.

6.2 Certain Matters Relating to Receivables; Grantors Remain Liable

(a) Upon the request of the Collateral Agent at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall notify Account Debtors on the Receivables that such Receivables have been assigned to the Collateral Agent for the ratable benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and that payments in respect of such Receivables shall be made directly to the Collateral Agent. Once any such notice has been given to any such Account Debtor or other Person obligated on the Collateral, such Grantor shall not give any contrary instructions to such Account Debtor or other Person without the Collateral Agent’s prior written consent.

(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under the Receivables (or any agreements giving rise thereto) to observe and perform all of the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

6.3 Pledged Securities. (a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Collateral Agent shall have given written notice to the relevant Grantor of the Collateral Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 6.3(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged Securities to the extent permitted in the Credit Agreement, and to exercise all voting and corporate or other organizational rights with respect to the Pledged Stock.

(b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, upon written notice to the relevant Grantor, (i) unless otherwise provided in the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged Securities and make application thereof to the Secured Obligations in accordance with Section 6.6 and all such dividends, payments and other Proceeds shall be held in trust for the Collateral Agent until such time of receipt and (ii) the Collateral Agent shall have the right to have any or all of the Pledged Securities registered in the name of the Collateral Agent or its nominee (whether or not such Pledged Securities have been so registered), and the Collateral Agent or its nominee may immediately exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to any such Pledged Stock at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Pledged Securities as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including, without limitation, the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Stock upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Collateral Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Securities, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Securities with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Collateral Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Collateral Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing unless the Collateral Agent has given notice of its intent to exercise as set forth above.

(c) Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Pledged Securities pledged by such Grantor hereunder to comply with any instruction received by it from the Administrative Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other consent or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying.

6.4 Intellectual Property.

(a) Without limiting any rights of the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents, for the purpose of enabling the Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 6, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent permitted by law, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to use, assign, license, sublicense or otherwise exploit any of the Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired or created by such Grantor, wherever the same may be located; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6.4 shall require a Grantor to grant any license that is prohibited by any rule of law, statute or regulation or is prohibited by, or constitutes a breach or default under or results in the termination of or gives rise to any right of acceleration, modification or cancellation under any contract, license, agreement, instrument or other document evidencing, giving rise to a right to use or theretofore granted with respect to such property.

(b) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of Section 7.5 of the Credit Agreement that limit the rights of the Grantors to dispose of their property and the Collateral Agent’s exercise of its rights and remedies under this Section 6, the Grantors will be permitted to exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property. In furtherance of the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall from time to time, upon the request of the respective Grantor (through the Borrower), execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so reasonably requested, that such Grantor (through the Borrower) shall have certified are appropriate in its judgment to allow it to take any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to Section 6.4(a) above as to any specific Intellectual Property). Further, upon the Facility Termination Date or earlier release of the Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or this Agreement, the license granted pursuant to Section 6.4(a) above shall terminate and become null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exercise of rights and remedies under Section 6 by the Collateral Agent shall not terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by the Grantors in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 6.4(b).

6.5 Proceeds to be Turned Over To Collateral Agent. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon written notice from the Collateral Agent, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and other near-cash items shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, promptly upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Collateral Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Collateral Agent, if required); provided that in no event shall any Tax or Trust Funds be required to be turned over. All Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be held by the Collateral Agent in a Collateral Account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds while held by the Collateral Agent in a Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all of the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 6.6.

6.6 Application of Proceeds. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall apply all or any part of Proceeds constituting Collateral and any proceeds of the guarantee set forth in Section 2, after deducting all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safe keeping of any Collateral, in payment of the Secured Obligations in accordance with Section 2.18(f) of the Credit Agreement, and shall make any such application in accordance with the Credit Agreement, and only after such application and after the payment by the Collateral Agent of any other amount required by any applicable law, need the Collateral Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor.

6.7 Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and the other Secured Parties, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Secured Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the New York UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below or notices otherwise provided in the Loan Documents) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived unless otherwise provided in the Loan Documents), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any

part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Collateral Agent or any Lender or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. Any Agent or any Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Collateral Agent’s request, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Collateral Agent at places which the Collateral Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition. Collateral Agent may sell any Collateral without giving any warranties as to the Collateral and may specifically disclaim any warranties of title, merchantability or the like.

6.8 Private Sales. Each Grantor recognizes that the Collateral Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Securities, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, Gaming Regulations or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Collateral Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so. Each Grantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims against Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which the Collateral or any part thereof may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree.

6.9 Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Secured Obligations.

SECTION 7. THE COLLATERAL AGENT

7.1 Collateral Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc.

(a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement for the sole use and benefit of the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties, to, subject to applicable Gaming Regulations, take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Collateral Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, subject to any notice expressly required hereby, to do any or all of the following (provided that anything in this Section 7.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Collateral Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1(a) unless an Event of

Default shall have occurred and be continuing except with respect to any actions required for the maintenance of a perfected security interest in the Collateral):

(i) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Receivable or with respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Receivable or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable;

(ii) in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent may request to evidence and/or perfect the Secured Parties’ security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

(v) (1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent or as the Collateral Agent shall direct; (2) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral and to extend the time of payment with reference to the Collateral and to make any allowance and other adjustments with reference to the Collateral; (3) sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Collateral Agent may deem appropriate; (7) assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark (along with any applicable goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (8) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Collateral Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Collateral Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Collateral Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, after giving effect to all applicable grace periods, the Collateral Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may give such Grantor written notice of such failure to perform or comply and if an Event of Default exists and such Grantor fails to perform or comply within five (5) Business Days of

receiving such notice (or if the Collateral Agent reasonably determines that irreparable harm to the Collateral or to the security interest of the Secured Parties hereunder could result prior to the end of such five (5)-Business Day period), then the Collateral Agent may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

(c) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until (i) release of such Grantor from this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.15 or (ii) if later, this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

7.2 Duty of Collateral Agent.

(a) Beyond reasonable care in the custody thereof, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral in its possession or control or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee or any income thereon or as to the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto.

(b) The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody of the Collateral of any Grantor in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which it accords its own property. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Grantors’ Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other agent or bailee selected by the Collateral Agent in good faith.

(c) Neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall be required to marshal any present or future Collateral for, or other assurance of payment of, the Secured Obligations or to resort to such Collateral or other assurances of payment in any particular order. All of the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder and the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in respect of such Collateral and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or evidencing any of the Secured Obligations and, to the extent that it lawfully may, each Grantor hereby irrevocably waives the benefit of all such laws.

7.3 Execution of Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signature of such Grantor in such form from time to time and in such offices as the Collateral Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) under this Agreement. Each Grantor authorizes the Collateral Agent to use the collateral description “all personal property”, “all assets” or any similar phrase in any such financing statements.

7.4 Authority of Collateral Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Collateral Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Collateral Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Collateral Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as among the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Collateral Agent and the Grantors, the Collateral Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain

from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

SECTION 8. MISCELLANEOUS

8.1 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement.

8.2 Notices. Except as otherwise set forth herein, all notices, requests and demands to or upon the Collateral Agent or any Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Grantor not party to the Credit Agreement shall be addressed to such Grantor in the care of the Borrower at the Borrower’s notice address set forth in the Credit Agreement.

8.3 No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 8.1 above), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Collateral Agent or such Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

8.4 Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification. Each Grantor agrees to pay, and to save the Collateral Agent and the Lenders harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses arising out of any actions, judgments or suits of any kind or nature whatsoever, with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement to the extent the Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement. The agreements in this Section 8.4 shall survive the Facility Termination Date.

8.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their permitted successors and assigns; provided that no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent (it being understood that Dispositions and fundamental changes permitted under the Credit Agreement shall not be subject to this proviso).

8.6 Set-Off. The Collateral Agent and each Secured Party shall have the rights, as against each Grantor, specified in Section 10.7(b) of the Credit Agreement as if each Grantor were the Borrower, which is incorporated herein by reference and the provisions and rights set forth therein shall apply herein as if such provisions were set forth herein, mutatis mutandis.

8.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this

8.8 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.

Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect (i) any right that the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Secured Obligations or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, (ii) any party from bringing any legal action or proceeding in any jurisdiction for the recognition and enforcement of any judgment or (iii) if all such New York courts decline jurisdiction over any Person or decline (or in the case of the Federal District Court, lack) jurisdiction over any subject matter of such action or proceeding, a legal action or proceeding from being brought with respect thereto in another court having jurisdiction;

(b) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in clause (a) of this Section 8.12. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court;

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to it at its address set forth in Section 8.2 or at such other address of which the Collateral Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party;

(b) neither the Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Party has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Grantor arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Grantors, on the one hand, and the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

(c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties or among the Grantors and the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties.

8.14 Additional Guarantors and Grantors. Each Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to become a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.8 of the Credit Agreement, and/or, in the event of a Holding Company Election is made, Holdings, shall become a Guarantor and a Grantor for all purposes of this Agreement upon execution and delivery by such Subsidiary or Holdings, as applicable, of an Assumption Agreement in the form of Annex I hereto.

EACH GRANTOR AND, BY ACCEPTANCE OF THE BENEFITS HEREOF, EACH OF THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND EACH OTHER SECURED PARTY, HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

8.17 Credit Agreement Governs. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Credit Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Credit Agreement shall govern.

8.18 Compliance with Gaming Regulations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that the exercise of all rights and remedies under this Agreement is subject to applicable Gaming Regulations and further acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) The exercise of certain rights or remedies set forth in this Agreement may require the prior approval or authorization of the applicable Gaming Authorities pursuant to applicable Gaming Regulations and/or the licensing of the Collateral Agent or other Secured Parties or their transferee(s), unless such licensing requirement is waived by the applicable Gaming Authorities.

(b) In the event that the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party exercises one or more of the remedies set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document with respect to any Pledged Stock that are subject to the Requisite Gaming Approvals (the “Gaming Stock”), including foreclosure, sale, transfer or other disposition of such Gaming Stock, or of the possessory security therein (except a transfer back to the applicable Grantor) and the exercise of any of the voting and consensual rights afforded the Collateral Agent hereunder or thereunder, such exercise of remedies may be deemed a separate transfer of the Gaming Stock and may require the separate and prior approval of the applicable Gaming Authorities pursuant to applicable Gaming Regulations and/or the licensing of the Collateral Agent and Secured Parties, unless such licensing requirement is waived by the Gaming Authorities.

(c) With respect to each item of Gaming Stock, the pledge of such item of Gaming Stock hereunder is not effective until approval of the applicable Gaming Authorities has been received. Any amendment of this Agreement may require the approval of the applicable Gaming Authorities in order to become effective.

(d) The sale, transfer, possession or disposition of gaming devices, cashless wagering systems, mobile gaming systems, interactive gaming systems, gambling games and implements of gambling (as those terms are defined in the Gaming Regulations) may be subject to the requirements of the Gaming Regulations, including the approval of the applicable Gaming Authorities or the licensing of the Collateral Agent or other Secured Parties or their transferee(s) before any of them may sell or distribute such Collateral for use or play in any State in which a Grantor is licensed or registered to own or conduct a Gaming Business or for distribution outside of any State in which a Grantor is licensed or registered to own or conduct a Gaming Business to the extent required by applicable Gaming Regulations.

(e) The approval by the applicable Gaming Authority of this Agreement shall not be, and shall not be construed as, the approval, either express or implied, for the Secured Parties to take any actions or steps provided for in this Agreement for which approval by the Gaming Authorities is required, without first obtaining such prior and separate approval of such Gaming Authority, to the extent required by the applicable Gaming Regulations.

(f) The Collateral Agent and each sub-agent of the Collateral Agent shall comply with the conditions, if any, imposed by any Gaming Authority in connection with the approvals of the security interests granted in Gaming Collateral hereunder by the Grantors, including, without limitation, any conditions requiring the Collateral Agent or sub-agent of the Collateral Agent to maintain the certificates representing certain Pledged Stock at a location within the applicable jurisdiction provided to the applicable Gaming Authority and to permit representatives of the Gaming Authorities to inspect such Pledged Securities and certificates thereof during normal business hours. Neither the Collateral Agent nor any sub-agent of the Collateral Agent shall surrender possession of any Pledged Securities to any Person other than to the respective Grantor without prior notice to or approval of the applicable Gaming Authorities or as otherwise permitted by applicable Gaming Regulations.

(g) In connection with the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.18, it is acknowledged and agreed that neither the Collateral Agent, nor any other Secured Party, shall have any liability to any Grantor for any non-compliance or failure to meet obligations as otherwise provided above in this Section 8.18, except to the extent of the gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent or

the respective Secured Parties or the material breach of its obligations under this Agreement (in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

8.19 Compliance with Missouri Gaming Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any of the other Loan Documents, and without limiting anything herein or in any other Loan Document, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent Missouri gaming laws are applicable, the exercise of all rights and remedies under this Agreement is subject to applicable Missouri gaming laws, rules and regulations and further acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) The security interest granted in this Agreement does not authorize the pledge, hypothecation, or transfer of any gaming license (the “Missouri Licenses”) issued by the Missouri Gaming Commission (the “Missouri Commission”) under the Missouri Riverboat Gambling Act or any security interest attached to any such license. The prohibitions and other limitations set forth in this paragraph shall apply to the extent and for so long as, the security interests, rights, and interests referenced in this paragraph are prohibited by or are a violation of Missouri gaming laws, rules or regulations.

(b) Approval of the Missouri Commission may be required before the pledged ownership interests (“Pledged MO Collateral”) of any entity licensed by the Missouri Commission (a “Missouri Licensee”) can be transferred or sold, and Pledged MO Collateral and its transfer and sale may be subject to gaming law requirements that limit to whom the collateral may be transferred. Under 11 CSR 45-10.040(3)(B), notice must be given to the Missouri Commission at least thirty (30) days prior to any such sale or transfer of ownership of a Missouri Licensee. The prohibitions of this paragraph shall apply to the extent and for so long as the security interests, rights, and interests referenced in this paragraph are prohibited by or are a violation of Missouri gaming laws, rules or regulations.

(c) Missouri law does not presently permit, and the security interest granted by this Agreement will not authorize, the Collateral Agent to foreclose, take possession, or otherwise exercise ownership or possessory rights of any slot machine (as defined in 11 CSR 45-10.055) located or to be located in the State of Missouri without the Collateral Agent holding a valid license issued by the Missouri Commission, or in the alternative, the creation of a different mechanism that is in compliance with applicable Missouri laws and is acceptable to the Missouri Commission. The prohibitions and other limitations set forth in this paragraph shall apply to the extent and for so long as, the security interests or rights referenced therein are so restricted under Missouri gaming laws, rules and regulations.
