If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Hedging Obligations applicable to such Indebtedness if the related hedge has a remaining term in excess of twelve months).

Interest on a Capitalized Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capitalized Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. For purposes of making the computation referred to above, interest on any Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility computed on a pro forma basis shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period. Interest on Indebtedness that

ARTICLE II

The Credits

SECTION 2.01. Commitments.

(a) Subject to, and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, each Lender having a Commitment severally agrees to make a Loan or Loans on the Closing Date to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars for aggregate gross proceeds equal to 99.00% of the respective Commitment of the Loans to be made by such Lender.

(b) Subject to, and other than with respect to a PIK Payment under, Section 2.07, such Loans (i) shall be made on the Closing Date, (ii) may be repaid or prepaid in accordance with the provisions hereof, but once repaid or prepaid, may not be reborrowed, (iii) shall not exceed for any such Lender the Commitment of such Lender and (iv) shall not exceed in the aggregate the total of all Commitments. On the Maturity Date, all then unpaid Loans (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall equal an aggregate principal amount of $350,000,000, plus any increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Loans as a result of PIK Payments, less any repayments prior to the Maturity Date) shall be repaid in full.

(c) Each Lender may at its option make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan, provided that (i) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan and (ii) in exercising such option, such Lender shall use its reasonable efforts to minimize any increased costs to the Borrower resulting therefrom (which obligation of the Lender shall not require it to take, or refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in increased costs for which it will not be compensated hereunder or that it determines would be otherwise disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the provisions of Section 2.09 shall apply).

SECTION 2.02. Promissory Notes. Borrower hereby agrees that, upon request of any Lender at any time and from time to time after the Borrower has made the borrowing hereunder, the Borrower shall provide to such Lender, at the Borrower’s own expense, a Note, substantially in the form of Exhibit C.

-38-

SECTION 2.03. Notice of Borrowing.

(a) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Lending Office prior to 12:00 Noon (New York City time) at least one Business Day’s prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of the borrowing of Loans. Such notice (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be made and (ii) the date of the Loans (which shall be the Closing Date). The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of the proposed borrowing of Loans, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters covered by the related Notice of Borrowing.

(b) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any notice it may give hereunder by telephone, the Administrative Agent may act prior to receipt of written confirmation without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Officer of the Borrower. In each such case, the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of any such telephonic notice.

SECTION 2.04. Disbursement of Funds.

(a) Subject to Article IV, no later than 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Closing Date, each Lender will make available its pro rata portion of gross proceeds equal to 99.00% of its Commitment of the Loans to be made on such date in the manner provided below.

(b) Each Lender shall make available all amounts it is to fund to the Borrower in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Lending Office and the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrower, by depositing to the Borrower’s account at the Administrative Agent’s Lending Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available in U.S. Dollars. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the Closing Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Loans to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender and the Administrative Agent has made available same to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or the Borrower interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if paid by such Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or (ii) if paid by the Borrower, the then-applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.07, for the respective Loans.

-39-

(c) Nothing in this Section 2.04 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder).

SECTION 2.05. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, on the Maturity Date, the then-unpaid Loans, in U.S. Dollars (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall equal an aggregate principal amount of $350,000,000, plus any increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Loans as a result of PIK Payments, less any repayments prior to the Maturity Date).

(b) [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

(d) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the appropriate Lending Office of such Lender resulting from the Loan made by such Lending Office of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lending Office of such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 9.06(b)(iv), and a subaccount for each Lender, in which the Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of the Loans made hereunder and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(f) The entries made in the Register and accounts and subaccounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section 2.05 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; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loan made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.06. Pro Rata Borrowings. The borrowing of Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by the Lenders pro rata of gross proceeds equal to 99.00% of their respective Commitments of the Loans. It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder.

-40-

SECTION 2.07. Interest.

(a) Interest for the first Interest Period commencing on the Closing Date shall be payable in cash. For any Interest Period thereafter, the Borrower may elect (an “Election”) to (i) pay interest on the entire principal amount in cash, (ii) pay interest on the entire principal amount by adding such interest to such principal amount (a “Full PIK Payment”) or (iii) pay interest on 50% of the principal amount in cash and pay interest on the remaining portion of the principal amount by adding such interest to such principal amount (a “Partial PIK Payment”; and, together with a Full PIK Payment, “PIK Payments”). Unless the context otherwise requires, for all purposes hereof, references to “principal amount” of Loans refers to the face amount of the Loans and not gross proceeds funded and includes any increase in the principal amount of the outstanding Loans as a result of a PIK Payment.

(b) The Borrower shall make an Election (with respect to each Interest Period except the first Interest Period) by providing notice to the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days prior to the beginning of such Interest Period. The Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a corresponding notice to the Lenders. If an Election is not made by the Borrower in a timely fashion or at all with respect to the method of payment of interest for an Interest Period, interest for such Interest Period shall be payable in the same form of the interest payment for the previous Interest Period.

(c) Interest on the Loans will be payable in arrears on March 1 and September 1, commencing on September 1, 2007, subject to Section 2.08. The Loans will bear interest from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from and including the Closing Date. Overdue principal, interest, fees and other amounts shall bear interest at the applicable interest rate plus 2.0% per annum. Interest payable in cash shall accrue at a rate per annum, reset semi-annually on the first day of each Interest Period, equal to LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin, as determined by the Administrative Agent. Interest that is a PIK Payment shall accrue at a rate per annum, reset on the first day of each Interest Period, equal to LIBOR plus 0.75% plus the Applicable Margin, as determined by the Administrative Agent.

(d) Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the date of any repayment thereof and shall be payable (i) on the last day of each Interest Period, and (ii) on any prepayment (on the amount prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand.

(e) All computations of interest hereunder shall made in accordance with Section 2.18.

(f) The Administrative Agent, upon determining the LIBOR for any Interest Period, shall promptly notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders thereof.

(g) All percentages resulting from any of the above calculations will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five

-41-

one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) being rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards). The Administrative Agent will, upon the request of the Lender, provide the interest rate then in effect. All calculations of the Administrative Agent, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders.

SECTION 2.08. Interest Periods. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above:

(a) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day, provided that if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day; and

(b) in lieu of making any payment permitted or required under this Agreement other than on the last day of the Interest Period therefor so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower at its option may deposit with the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the amount of the Loan to be prepaid and such Loan shall be repaid on the last day of the Interest Period therefor in the required amount. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a corporate time deposit account established on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, earning interest at the then-customary rate for accounts of such type. Such deposit shall constitute cash collateral for the Obligations, provided that the Borrower may at any time direct that such deposit be applied to make the applicable payment required pursuant to this Section 2.08.

SECTION 2.09. Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.

(a) In the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the Administrative Agent or (y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Lender shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto):

(i) on any date for determining LIBOR for any Interest Period that (x) deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans are not generally available in the relevant market or (y) by reason of any changes arising on or after the Closing Date affecting the interbank LIBOR market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR; or

(ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Loans (other than any such increase or reduction attributable to Taxes, which shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.16) because of (x) any change since the Closing Date in any applicable law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation,

-42-

guideline or order), such as, for example, without limitation, a change in official reserve requirements, and/or (y) other circumstances affecting the interbank LIBOR market or the position of such Lender in such market; or

(iii) at any time, that the making or continuance of any Loan has become unlawful by compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or has become impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Closing Date that materially and adversely affects the interbank LIBOR market;

then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above) shall within a reasonable time thereafter give notice (if by telephone, confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist (which notice the Administrative Agent agrees to give at such time when such circumstances no longer exist), and any Notice of Borrowing given by the Borrower with respect to Loans that have not yet been incurred shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, promptly after receipt of written demand therefor such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its reasonable discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder (it being agreed that a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall take the action specified in Section 2.09(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law.

(b) At any time that any Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.09(a)(ii) or (iii), the Borrower may (and in the case of a Loan affected pursuant to Section 2.09(a)(iii) shall), upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert each such Loan into a Loan bearing interest at a rate equal to (i) an Alternate LIBOR (if available) plus the Applicable Margin, and (ii) an ABR Loan (if an Alternate LIBOR is not available), in each case, through and including the date immediately prior to the next Interest Payment Date; provided that if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated in the same manner pursuant to this Section 2.09(b); provided, further, that if the circumstances described in Section 2.09(a)(ii) or (iii) shall cease to exist, then interest shall resume being calculated pursuant to Section 2.07(b).

(c) If, after the Closing Date, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, the National Association of Insurance

-43-

Commissioners, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by a Lender or its parent with any request or directive made or adopted after the Closing Date regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, association, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent’s or its Affiliate’s capital or assets as a consequence of such Lender’s commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or its parent or its Affiliate could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or its parent’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, promptly after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its parent for such reduction, it being understood and agreed, however, that a Lender shall not be entitled to such compensation as a result of such Lender’s compliance with, or pursuant to any request or directive to comply with, any such law, rule or regulation as in effect on the Closing Date. Each Lender, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.09(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not, subject to Section 2.12, release or diminish the Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.09(c) upon receipt of such notice.

SECTION 2.10. Compensation. If any payment of principal of any Loan is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan as a result of a payment pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.14, as a result of acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Article VII or for any other reason, the Borrower shall, after receipt of a written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that such Lender may reasonably incur as a result of such payment, or failure to prepay, including any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits) actually incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Loan.

SECTION 2.11. Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.09(a)(ii), 2.09(a)(iii), 2.09(b), 2.16(a) or 2.16(c) with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another Lending Office for any Loans affected by such event, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section; provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its Lending Office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage. Nothing in this Section 2.11 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Section 2.09 or 2.16.

SECTION 2.12. Notice of Certain Costs. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, to the extent any notice required by Section 2.09, or 2.10 is given by any Lender more than 90 days after such Lender has knowledge (or should have had knowledge) of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss, tax or

-44-

other additional amounts described in such Sections, such Lender shall not be entitled to compensation under Section 2.09, or 2.10, as the case may be, for any such amounts incurred or accruing prior to the 91st day prior to the giving of such notice to the Borrower.

SECTION 2.13. Voluntary Prepayments. At any time on or prior to August 31, 2007, the Borrower may prepay the Loans, at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, at a prepayment price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Loans prepaid plus the Applicable Premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest to, the applicable prepayment date.

After August 31, 2007, the Borrower may prepay the Loans, at its option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, at the following prepayment prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest on such principal amount, to the prepayment date, if prepaid during the 12-month period commencing on September 1 of the years set forth below here:


Period		Prepayment Price

2008		102%
2009		101%

SECTION 2.15. Method and Place of Payment.

(a) Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all cash payments under this Agreement shall be made by the Borrower, without set-off, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders entitled thereto not later than 12:00 Noon (New York City time) on the date when due and shall be made in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Lending Office or at such other office as the Administrative Agent shall specify for such purpose by notice to the Borrower, it being understood that written or facsimile notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent to make a payment from the funds in the Borrower’s account at the Administrative Agent’s Office shall constitute the making of such payment to the extent of such funds held in such account. All cash payments under each Loan Document (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) shall be made in U.S. Dollars. The Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such day) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or fees ratably to the Lenders entitled thereto.

(b) Any cash payments under this Agreement that are made later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension.

SECTION 2.16. Net Payments.

(a) Except as required by law, any and all payments made by the Borrower or any other party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Indemnified Taxes or Other taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16) the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions or withholdings and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. Whenever any Indemnified Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter, the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of such Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower or other evidence acceptable to such Lender, acting reasonably, showing payment thereof.

-47-

(b) Borrower shall pay and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender (whether or not such Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority) with regard to any Other Taxes.

(c) Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 15 Business Days after written demand therefore, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes imposed on the Administrative Agent or such Lender as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.16) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority; provided, however, the Borrower shall not be obligated to make a payment to any Lender or Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.16 in respect of penalties, interest or other expenses to the extent (i) such penalties, interest and other expenses have accrued after the earlier of (x) the date the Borrower has paid the indemnification or other amount pursuant to this Section 2.16 or (y) 180 days after the Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, knew of the imposition of the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes to which such interest, penalties or other expenses relate or (ii) such penalties interest and other expenses are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender or Administrative Agent. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) A Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax imposed with respect to payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time the Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (or designates a new Lending Office) and at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and as reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such properly completed and executed documentation as will permit such payments to be made without withholding of U.S. federal withholding Tax or at a reduced rate, provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation. To the extent it is legally entitled to do so, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file or deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent any certificate or document, as reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, that may be necessary to establish any available exemption from, or reduction in the amount of, any withholding taxes imposed by a jurisdiction other than the United States federal government; provided, however, that a Lender shall not be required to file or deliver any such certificate or document if in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or delivery would be legally inadvisable or otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender or would subject such Lender to any cost that is not reimbursed by the Borrower upon reasonable notice by such Lender.

(e) If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Taxes for which indemnification has been demanded hereunder, the relevant Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall cooperate with the Borrower in challenging such Taxes at the Borrower’s expense if so requested by the Borrower and if such cooperation

-48-

is not disadvantageous to such Lender or the Administrative Agent. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, determines, in its sole discretion, acting in good faith, that it has received a refund of a tax for which a payment has been made by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement (or reduction of, or credit against its tax liabilities in lieu of a refund), which refund, reduction or credit in the good faith judgment of such Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, is attributable to such payment made by the Borrower, then the Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall reimburse the Borrower for such amount (together with any interest received thereon) as the Lender or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, determines to be the proportion of the refund, reduction or credit as will leave it, after such reimbursement, in no better or worse position (taking into account expenses or any taxes imposed on the refund) than it would have been in if the payment had not been required; provided that the Borrower shall repay such amount to such Lender or Administrative Agent (plus any interest, penalties or other charges imposed by the relevant governmental authority except to the extent such interest, penalties or other charges are imposed as the result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Lender or Administrative Agent) in the event such Lender or Administrative Agent is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority. A Lender or Administrative Agent shall claim any refund, reduction or credit that it determines in its sole discretion is available to it, unless it concludes in its sole discretion that it would be adversely affected by making such a claim. Neither the Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be obliged to disclose any information regarding its tax affairs or computations or any other information that it reasonably deems confidential to the Borrower in connection with this paragraph (e) or any other provision of this Section 2.16.

(f) The agreements in this Section 2.16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable herein.

SECTION 2.17. Computations of Interest and Fees. Interest on Loans shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed. All computations of interest for ABR Loans when the ABR is determined by the Administrative Agent’s “prime rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed.

SECTION 2.18. Limit on Rate of Interest.

(a) No Payment Shall Exceed Lawful Rate. Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be obliged to pay any interest or other amounts under or in connection with this Agreement in excess of the amount or rate permitted under or consistent with any applicable law, rule or regulation.

(b) Payment at Highest Lawful Rate. If the Borrower is not obliged to make a payment which it would otherwise be required to make, as a result of Section 2.18(a), the Borrower shall make such payment to the maximum extent permitted by or consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

(c) Adjustment if Any Payment Exceeds Lawful Rate. If any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents would obligate the Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate

-49-

which would be prohibited by any applicable law, rule or regulation, then notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid by the Borrower to the affected Lender under Section 2.07.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all adjustments contemplated thereby, if any Lender shall have received from the Borrower an amount in excess of the maximum permitted by any applicable law, rule or regulation, then the Borrower shall be entitled, by notice in writing to the Administrative Agent to obtain reimbursement from that Lender in an amount equal to such excess, and pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an amount payable by that Lender to the Borrower.

(t) Indebtedness Incurred by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to fund losses, damages, liabilities, claims, costs and expenses (including attorney’s fees, interest, penalties, judgments and settlements, collectively, “Losses”), by reason of any litigation disclosed in either of the Opco Notes Offering Circulars, including the financial statements included herein, or relating to the same facts and circumstances as disclosed; provided that (as certified in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent) (1) the Borrower has provided to Cendant Corporation or its successor (“Cendant”) notice in respect of such Losses and has a reasonable good faith belief it is entitled to be indemnified by Cendant pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement in respect of

-65-

such Losses and (2) the Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (t) is in an amount equal to or less than the amount of the Losses for which indemnification is claimed; provided, further, that (1) after 30 days of the Borrower receiving funds in satisfaction of such indemnity or (2) if Cendant gives written notice to the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary that it disputes the Borrower’s entitlement to indemnity with respect to any Losses and (A) such dispute is not challenged by the Borrower within 30 days of receipt of such notice or (B) there is a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction confirming that the Borrower is not entitled to such indemnity which judgment is not discharged, waived or stayed for a period of 60 days, any amounts Incurred pursuant to this clause (t) in respect of such indemnity that remain outstanding shall no longer be permitted under this clause (t) and shall be deemed to be Incurred on such date.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.01, in the event that an item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of permitted Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock described in clauses (a) through (t) above or is entitled to be Incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 6.01, the Borrower shall, in its sole discretion, divide, classify or reclassify, or later divide, classify or reclassify, such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock in any manner that complies with this Section 6.01 and such item of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock will be treated as having been Incurred pursuant to one or more of such clauses or pursuant to the first paragraph hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Indebtedness under the Opco Credit Agreement outstanding on October 17, 2005 will be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (a) above and the Borrower shall not be permitted to reclassify all or any portion of such Indebtedness outstanding on October 17, 2005. Accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, amortization or original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms (including any increase to the principal amount of Loans as a result of a PIK Payment), the payment of dividends on Preferred Stock in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock of the same class, the accretion of liquidation preference and increases in the amount of Indebtedness outstanding solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 6.01. Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness which is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness; provided that the Incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was in compliance with this Section 6.01.

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term debt, or first committed or first Incurred (whichever yields the lower U.S. dollar equivalent), in the case of revolving credit debt; provided that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded

-66-

if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced.

(u) The Borrower shall not Incur any Indebtedness that is subordinate in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Borrower unless it is subordinate in right of payment to the Loans to the same extent. For purposes of the foregoing, no Indebtedness of the Borrower will be deemed to be subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Borrower, solely by reason of any Liens or guarantees arising or created in respect thereof or by virtue of the fact that the holders of any secured Indebtedness have entered into intercreditor agreements giving one or more of such holders priority over the other holders in the collateral held by them

SECTION 6.02. Limitation on Restricted Payments. The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly:

(1) declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution on account of the Borrower’s or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ Equity Interests, including any payment with respect to such Equity Interests made in connection with any merger, amalgamation or consolidation involving the Borrower (other than (A) dividends or distributions by the Borrower payable solely in Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Borrower; (B) dividends or distributions by a Restricted Subsidiary on its common Equity Interests so long as, in the case of any dividend or distribution payable on or in respect of any class or series of securities issued by a Restricted Subsidiary other than a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary receives at least its pro rata share of such dividend or distribution in accordance with its Equity Interests in such class or series of securities); and (C) dividends or distributions made by the Borrower on or after the Closing Date with the net proceeds of the Loans;

(2) purchase or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Equity Interests of the Borrower or any Parent of the Borrower, including in connection with any merger, amalgamation or consolidation, other than purchases, acquisitions or retirements for value made with net proceeds of the Loans;

(3) make any principal payment on, or redeem, repurchase, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, in each case prior to any scheduled repayment or scheduled maturity, any Subordinated Indebtedness of the Borrower (other than the payment, redemption, prepayment, repurchase, defeasance, acquisition or retirement of (A) Subordinated Indebtedness in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity, in each case due within one year of the date of such payment, redemption, prepayment, repurchase, defeasance, acquisition or retirement and (B) Indebtedness permitted under clauses (g) and (i) of the second paragraph of Section 6.01); or

(4) make any Restricted Investment

-67-

(all such payments and other actions set forth in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively referred to as “Restricted Payments”), unless, at the time of such Restricted Payment:

(a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof;

(b) (i) with respect to a Restricted Payment by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower (other than Opco or any Restricted Subsidiary of Opco), immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis as if the Restricted Payment had been made and any Indebtedness Incurred on such date had been Incurred, the Borrower would be permitted to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test in clause (i) of the first paragraph of Section 6.01 and the Consolidated Leverage Ratio of the Borrower would have been less than 5.0 to 1; and (ii) with respect to a Restricted Payment by Opco or any Restricted Subsidiary of Opco, immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis as if the Restricted Payment had been made and any Indebtedness Incurred on such date had been Incurred, Opco would be permitted to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test in clause (ii) of the first paragraph of Section 6.01 and the Consolidated Leverage Ratio of Opco would have been less than 5.0 to 1; and

(c) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all other Restricted Payments made by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries after the Closing Date (including Restricted Payments permitted by clauses (1), (4) (only to the extent of one-half of the amount paid pursuant to such clause), (6) and (8) of the next succeeding paragraph, but excluding all other Restricted Payments permitted by the next succeeding paragraph), is less than the sum, without duplication, of:

(A) 50% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Borrower for the period (taken as one accounting period) from July 1, 2005 to the end of the Borrower’s most recently ended fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available at the time of such Restricted Payment (or, if such Consolidated Net Income for such period is a deficit, less 100% of such deficit); provided, however, that, to the extent the Consolidated Leverage Ratio of Opco on a pro forma basis as if the Restricted Payment had been made and any Indebtedness Incurred on such date had been Incurred would have been less than 3.0 to 1, then 75% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Borrower for the aforementioned period shall be included pursuant to this clause (c)(A), plus

The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Borrower or such Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment.

As of the Closing Date, all of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries (except for Affinion Net Patents, Inc. and Affinion Loyalty, LLC) will be Restricted Subsidiaries. The Borrower will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” For purposes of designating any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments or Permitted Investments in an amount determined as set forth in the last sentence of the definition of “Investments.” Such designation will only be permitted if Restricted Payments or Permitted Investments in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

-74-

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.02, (a) if and to the extent Opco or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries would be permitted to make a Restricted Payment (as defined in the applicable Opco Indenture) pursuant to an Opco Indenture as in effect on the Closing Date to the extent Opco Notes thereunder are outstanding at such time, Opco or its Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall be permitted to make under this Agreement a Restricted Payment permitted to be made thereunder and (b) the payment of dividends or distributions by any Material Subsidiary (as defined in the Opco Credit Agreement) to Opco or any Subsidiary (as defined in the Opco Credit Agreement) that is a Parent of such Subsidiary (as defined in the Opco Credit Agreement) shall be permitted under this Agreement.

SECTION 6.03. Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries. The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to:

(a) (i) pay dividends or make any other distributions to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (1) on its Capital Stock or (2) with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits; or (ii) pay any Indebtedness owed to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(b) make loans or advances to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

except in each case for such encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

(2) this Agreement and the Loans;

(3) applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation or order;

(4) any agreement or other instrument of a Person acquired by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary which was in existence at the time of such acquisition (but not created in contemplation thereof), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired;

(5) contracts or agreements for the sale of assets, including customary restrictions with respect to a Subsidiary pursuant to an agreement that has been entered into for the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock or assets of such Subsidiary;

(8) customary provisions in joint venture agreements and other similar agreements (including customary provisions in agreements relating to any Joint Venture);

(9) purchase money obligations for property acquired and Capitalized Lease Obligations in the ordinary course of business that impose restrictions of the nature discussed in clause (c) above on the property so acquired;

(10) customary provisions contained in leases, licenses, contracts and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business that impose restrictions of the type described in clause (c) above on the property subject to such lease;

(11) other Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower that is Incurred subsequent to the Closing Date and permitted pursuant to Section 6.01; provided that such encumbrances and restrictions contained in any agreement or instrument will be no more restrictive than those set forth in the Opco Notes Indentures or will not materially affect the Borrower’s ability to make anticipated principal or interest payments on the Loans (as determined in good faith by senior management or the Board of Directors of the Borrower); and

(12) any encumbrances or restrictions of the type referred to in clauses (a), (b) and (c) above imposed by any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in clauses (1) through (11) above; provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are, in the good faith judgment of senior management or the Board of Directors of the Borrower, no more restrictive as a whole with respect to such encumbrances and restrictions than those prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or refinancing.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.03, (i) the priority of any Preferred Stock in receiving dividends or liquidating distributions prior to dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on common Capital Stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock and (ii) the subordination of loans or advances made to the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower to other Indebtedness Incurred by the Borrower or any such Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances.

SECTION 6.04. Merger, Amalgamation, Consolidation or Sale of All or Substantially All Assets. The Borrower shall not consolidate, amalgamate or merge with or into or wind up into (whether or not the Borrower is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in one or more related transactions to, any Person unless:

-76-

(a) the Borrower is a surviving Person or the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation, amalgamation or merger (if other than the Borrower) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition has been made is a corporation, partnership or limited liability company organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, the District of Columbia or any territory thereof (the Borrower or such Person, as the case may be, being herein called the “Successor Borrower”);

(b) the Successor Borrower (if other than the Borrower) expressly assumes all the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the Loans pursuant to supplemental credit agreements or other documents or instruments in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(c) immediately after giving effect to such transaction no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

(d) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction, as if such transaction had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Successor Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), either

(i) the Successor Borrower would be permitted to Incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in clause (i) of the first paragraph of Section 6.01; or

(ii) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Successor Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be greater than or equal to such ratio for the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to such transaction.

The Successor Borrower (if other than the Borrower) will succeed to, and be substituted for, the Borrower under this Agreement and the Loans, and the Borrower will automatically be released and discharged from its obligations under this Agreement and the Loans, but in the case of a lease of all or substantially all of its assets, the Borrower will not be released from the obligations to pay the principal of and interest on the Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing clauses (c) and (d), (x) the Borrower may consolidate or amalgamate with, merge into, sell, assign or transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or part of its properties and assets to any Restricted Subsidiary and (y) the Borrower may merge, amalgamate or consolidate with an Affiliate incorporated or organized solely for the purpose of incorporating or organizing the Borrower in another state of the United States, the District of Columbia or any territory of the United States so long as the amount of Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby (any transaction described in this sentence a “Specified Merger/Transfer Transaction”). This Section 6.04 will not apply to a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets between or among the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries.

-77-

For purposes of this Section 6.04, the sale, lease, conveyance, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of one or more Subsidiaries of the Borrower, which properties and assets, if held by the Borrower instead of such Subsidiaries, would constitute all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower on a consolidated basis, shall be deemed to be the transfer of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower.

SECTION 6.05. Transactions with Affiliates. The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction or series of transactions, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with or for the benefit of, any Affiliate of the Borrower (each of the foregoing, an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate consideration in excess of $5 million, unless:

(a) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are not less favorable to the Borrower or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary with an unrelated Person; and

(b) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $20 million, the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent a resolution adopted in good faith by the majority of the Board of Directors of the Borrower approving such Affiliate Transaction and set forth in an Officers’ Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with clause (a) above.

The foregoing provisions will not apply to the following:

(1) transactions between or among the Borrower and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(2) Restricted Payments permitted by the provisions of Section 6.02 and Investments under the definition of “Permitted Investments”;

(3) the entering into of any agreement (and any amendments or modifications to such agreements) to pay, and the payment of, (i) management, consulting, monitoring and advisory fees and expenses to the Sponsor in an aggregate amount in any fiscal year not to exceed the greater of (x) $5 million and (y) 2% of Consolidated Cash Flow of Opco, and expense reimbursement, in each case made pursuant to any agreement, or any agreement contemplated by such agreement, each as described under the caption “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions” in either Opco Offering Circular and (ii) the termination fees pursuant to the Sponsor Consulting Agreement not to exceed the amount set forth in the Sponsor Consulting Agreement as in effect on the Closing Date;

(6) transactions in which the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, delivers to the Administrative Agent a letter from an Independent Financial Advisor stating that such transaction is fair to the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view or meets the requirements of clause (a) of the preceding paragraph;

(7) payments or loans (or cancellation of loans) to employees or consultants that are (x) approved by a majority of the Board of Directors of the Borrower in good faith, (y) made in compliance with applicable law and (z) otherwise permitted under this Agreement;

(8) any agreement as in effect as of the Closing Date and any amendment thereto (so long as any such agreement together with all amendments thereto, taken as a whole, is not more disadvantageous to the Lenders in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the Closing Date) or any transaction contemplated thereby as determined in good faith by senior management or the Board of Directors of the Borrower;

(9) the existence of, or the performance by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under the terms of, the Transaction Documents and any amendment thereto or similar agreements which it may enter into thereafter; provided, however, that the existence of, or the performance by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of its obligations under, any future amendment to any such existing agreement or under any similar agreement entered into after the Closing Date shall only be permitted by this clause (9) to the extent that the terms of any such existing agreement together with all amendments thereto, taken as a whole, or new agreement are not otherwise more disadvantageous to the Lenders in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the Closing Date;

(10) transactions to effect the Transactions and the payment of all fees and expenses related to the Transactions, as described in either Opco Offering Circular contemplated by the Transaction Documents;

-79-

(11) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of business and otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Agreement that are fair to the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiaries, in the reasonable determination of the members of the Board of Directors or the senior management of the Borrower, or are on terms at least as favorable as would reasonably have been entered into at such time with an unaffiliated party;

(16) transactions between the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries and any Person, a director of which is also a director of the Borrower or any direct or indirect parent Borrower of the Borrower, provided, however, that such director abstains from voting as a director of the Borrower or such direct or indirect parent Borrower, as the case may be, on any matter involving such other Person;

(17) pledges of Equity Interests of Unrestricted Subsidiaries;

(18) any employment agreements entered into by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business; and

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.05, if and to the extent any action by Opco or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is not deemed to be an Affiliate Transaction (as defined in the applicable Opco Indenture) under an Opco Indenture as in effect on the Closing Date to the extent Opco Notes thereunder are outstanding at such time, such action by Opco or its Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall not be deemed to be an Affiliate Transaction hereunder and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.05.

SECTION 6.06. Liens. The Borrower shall not create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind (other than Permitted Liens) upon any of its property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired, unless all payments

-80-

due under this Agreement and the Loans are secured on an equal and ratable basis with the obligations so secured (or, in the case of Indebtedness of the Borrower subordinated to the Loans, prior or senior thereto, with the same relative priority as the Loans will have with respect to such subordinated Indebtedness) until such time as such obligations are no longer secured by a Lien.

SECTION 6.07. Future Guarantors. The Borrower shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary that guarantees any Indebtedness of the Borrower (other than Indebtedness of the Borrower consisting of a guarantee under the Opco Credit Agreement) to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Guarantee pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary will unconditionally Guarantee, on a joint and several basis, the full and prompt payment of the principal of, premium, if any and interest on the Loans on a senior or pari passu basis and all other obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event any Guarantor is released and discharged in full from all of its obligations under the guarantees of such other Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, then the Guarantee of such Guarantor shall be automatically and unconditionally released or discharged. For the avoidance of doubt, the guarantee by any Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness of another Restricted Subsidiary at a time that such Indebtedness is also guaranteed by the Borrower shall not constitute a guarantee of Indebtedness of the Borrower.

Each future Guarantee will be limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by that Restricted Subsidiary without rendering the Guarantee, as it relates to such Restricted Subsidiary, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally.

Any future Guarantee shall be released in accordance with Section 9.20.

SECTION 6.08. Change of Control.

(a) Change of Control Prepayment Offer. Upon the occurrence of any of the following events (each, a “Change of Control”), each Lender will have the right to require the Borrower to prepay all or any part of such Lender’s Loans at a prepayment price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of prepayment in accordance with Section 2.14(a):

(1) the sale, lease or transfer, in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to any Person, other than any Permitted Holder; or

(2) the Borrower becomes aware (by way of a report or any other filing pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, proxy, vote, written notice or otherwise) of the acquisition by any Person or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or Section 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act, or any successor provision), including any group acting for the purpose of acquiring, holding or disposing of securities (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act), other than any of the Permitted Holders in a single transaction or in a related series of transactions, by way of merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other business combination or purchase of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, or any successor provision), of more

-81-

than 50% of the total voting power of the Voting Stock of the Borrower or any Parent of the Borrower (for purposes of calculating the total voting power of the Voting Stock held by a group, the voting power beneficially owned by a Permitted Holder shall be excluded to the extent such Permitted Holder retains the sole economic rights with respect to the subject Voting Stock); or

(3) (A) prior to the first public offering of common Capital Stock of the Parent or the Borrower, the first day on which the Board of Directors of the Parent or the Borrower shall cease to consist of a majority of directors who (i) were members of the Board of Directors of the Borrower on the Closing Date or (ii) were either (x) nominated for election by the Board of Directors of the Parent or the Borrower, a majority of whom were directors on the Closing Date or whose election or nomination for election was previously approved by a majority of directors nominated for election pursuant to this clause (x) or who were designated or appointed pursuant to clause (y) below, or (y) designated or appointed by a Permitted Holder (each of the directors selected pursuant to clauses (A)(i) and (A)(ii), a “Continuing Director”) and (B) after the first public offering of common Capital Stock of either Parent or the Borrower, (i) if such public offering is of common Capital Stock of the Parent, the first day on which a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Parent are not Continuing Directors or (ii) if such public offering is of common Capital Stock of the Borrower, the first day on which a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Borrower are not Continuing Directors.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Specified Merger/Transfer Transaction shall not constitute a Change of Control.

The Borrower will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if all of the following conditions are met:

(1) on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Change of Control transaction, the Borrower’s Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio would not be lower than its Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on the date immediately prior to the consummation of the Change of Control transaction;

(2) on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Change of Control transaction, and immediately prior to the public announcement of such Change of Control transaction, the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Borrower is or would be, as applicable, equal to or higher than the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for the Borrower on the Closing Date;

(3) on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Change of Control transaction, the Borrower is permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in clause (i) of the first paragraph of Section 6.01; and

(4) at the time such Change of Control is consummated, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a result thereof.

-82-

SECTION 6.09. Asset Sales. The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, cause or make an Asset Sale, unless (x) the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be, receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Borrower) of the assets sold or otherwise disposed of and (y) at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, is in the form of Cash Equivalents; provided that the amount of:

(i) any liabilities (as shown on the Borrower’s or such Restricted Subsidiary’s most recent balance sheet) of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Loans) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets,

(ii) any notes or other obligations or other securities or assets received by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower from such transferee that are converted by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower into cash within 180 days of the receipt thereof (to the extent of the cash received), and

(iii) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in such Asset Sale having an aggregate Fair Market Value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Borrower), taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (c) that is at that time outstanding, not to exceed the greater of $50 million or 2.5% of Total Assets of the Borrower at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being measured at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value)

shall be deemed to be Cash Equivalents for the purposes of this Section 6.09.

Within 395 days after the receipt by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale, the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower may apply the Net Proceeds from such Asset Sale, at its option:

(1) to repay Secured Indebtedness, including Indebtedness under the Opco Credit Agreement and, if the Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto or Pari Passu Indebtedness (provided that if the Borrower shall so reduce Obligations under Pari Passu Indebtedness (other than Pari Passu Indebtedness that is Secured Indebtedness), the Borrower will equally and ratably reduce Obligations under the Loans if the Loans are then prepayable or, if the Loans may not then be prepaid, by making an offer (in accordance with the procedures set forth below for an Asset Sale Offer) to all Lenders to purchase at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, the pro rata principal amount of Loans that would otherwise be prepaid) or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary, in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Borrower or an Affiliate of the Borrower; provided, however, that if an offer to repay or repurchase any Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower is made in accordance with the terms of such Indebtedness, the obligation to permanently repay Indebtedness

-83-

of a Restricted Subsidiary will be deemed to be satisfied to the extent of the amount of the offer, whether or not accepted by the holders thereof, and no Excess Proceeds in the amount of such offer will be deemed to exist following such offer; or

(2) to make an investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower), or capital expenditures or assets, in each case used or useful in a Similar Business, and/or

(3) to make an investment in any one or more businesses (provided that if such investment is in the form of the acquisition of Capital Stock of a Person, such acquisition results in such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower), properties or assets that replace the properties and assets that are the subject of such Asset Sale or Event of Loss;

provided that in the case of clauses (2) and (3) above, a binding commitment shall be treated as a permitted application of the Net Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as (x) such purchase is consummated within 545 days after the receipt by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Net Proceeds of any Asset Sale and (y) if such purchase is not consummated within the period set forth in subclause (x), the Net Proceeds not so applied will be deemed to be Excess Proceeds (as defined below).

Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower may temporarily reduce Indebtedness under a revolving credit facility, if any, or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in Cash Equivalents or Investment Grade Securities. Any Net Proceeds from any Asset Sale that are not applied as provided and within the time period set forth in the second paragraph of this Section 6.09 (it being understood that any portion of such Net Proceeds used to make an offer to prepay the Loans, as described in clause (1) above, shall be deemed to have been invested whether or not such offer is accepted) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $25 million, the Borrower shall make an offer to all Lenders (and, at the option of the Borrower, to holders of any Pari Passu Indebtedness) (an “Asset Sale Offer”) to prepay the maximum principal amount of Loans (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness) that is an integral multiple of $1,000 that may be prepaid out of the Excess Proceeds at an offer price in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (or, in the event such Pari Passu Indebtedness was issued with significant original issue discount, 100% of the accreted value thereof), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any (or, in respect of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, such lesser price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such Pari Passu Indebtedness), to the date fixed for the closing of such offer, in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Agreement; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Asset Sale by Opco or any Restricted Subsidiary of Opco, the Borrower shall not be required to make an Asset Sale Offer to the extent Opco is not permitted pursuant to the terms of its outstanding Indebtedness, any other agreement or applicable law to fund such Asset Sale Offer. The Borrower will commence an Asset Sale Offer with respect to Excess Proceeds within ten Business Days after the date that Excess Proceeds exceed $25 million by providing the notice required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to the Administrative Agent. To the extent that the aggregate

-84-

amount of Loans (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness) elected to be prepaid pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Borrower may use any remaining Excess Proceeds for any purpose that is not prohibited by this Agreement. If the aggregate principal amount of Loans by Lenders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Borrower shall prepay Loans (and such Pari Passu Indebtedness) to be prepaid in the manner described below. Upon completion of any such Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

ARTICLE VII

Events of Default

SECTION 7.01. Events of Default. The following will constitute “Events of Default”:

(a) a default in any payment of interest on any Loan when due that continues for 30 days,

(b) a default in the payment of principal or premium, if any, of any Loan when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional prepayment, upon required prepayment, upon declaration or otherwise,

(d) the failure by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to comply for 30 days after notice with any of its obligations under the covenants set forth in Article VI (other than Section 6.04 and other than a failure to prepay loans) and Section 5.04,

(e) the failure by the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries of the Borrower to comply for 60 days after notice with its other agreements contained in the Loans or this Agreement,

(f) the failure by the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary to pay any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness owing to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower) within any applicable grace period after final maturity or the acceleration of any such Indebtedness by the holders thereof because of a default, in each case, if the total amount of such Indebtedness unpaid or accelerated exceeds $30 million or its foreign currency equivalent,

(g) the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(i) commences a voluntary case;

(ii) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case;

-85-

(iii) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any substantial part of its property;

(iv) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or

(v) takes any comparable action under any foreign laws relating to insolvency,

(h) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(i) is for relief against the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case;

(ii) appoints a Custodian of the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property; or

(iii) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary;

or any similar relief is granted under any foreign laws and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days,

(i) failure by the Borrower or any Significant Subsidiary to pay final judgments aggregating in excess of $30 million or its foreign currency equivalent (net of any amounts which are covered by enforceable insurance policies issued by solvent carriers), which judgments are not discharged, waived or stayed for a period of 60 days.

The foregoing shall constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.

Default under Section 7.01(d) or (e) will not constitute an Event of Default until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that Lenders holding 25% in principal amount of the Loans outstanding have notified the Administrative Agent of the default and the Borrower does not cure such default within the time specified in Section 7.01(d) or (e), as applicable, after receipt of such notice.

SECTION 7.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default (other than a Default specified in Section 7.01(g) or (h), solely with respect to the Borrower and not any Significant Subsidiary) occurs and is continuing, the Lenders holding at least 25% in principal amount of the Loans outstanding by notice to the Administrative Agent may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Loans to be due and payable. Upon the Administrative Agent’s notification to the Borrower of such a declaration, such principal and interest will be due and payable immediately.

-86-

If an Event of Default under Section 7.01(g) or (h) occurs solely with respect to the Borrower and not any Significant Subsidiary, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Loans will become immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lenders.

In the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 7.01(f), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (excluding, however, any resulting payment default) will be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of the Loans, if within 20 days after such Event of Default arose the Borrower delivers an Officers’ Certificate to the Administrative Agent stating that (x) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged or (y) the Lenders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (z) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured, it being understood that in no event shall an acceleration of the principal amount of the Loans as described above be annulled, waived or rescinded upon the happening of any such events.

The Required Lenders by notice to the Administrative Agent may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived except nonpayment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of acceleration; provided, however, that if the Loans were accelerated as a result of an Event of Default described in Section 7.01(a) or (b), the Required Lenders must also agree to rescind such acceleration and its consequences. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

SECTION 7.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may pursue any available remedy at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of or interest on the Loans or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Loans or this Agreement.

The Administrative Agent may maintain a proceeding even if it does not hold any Loans. A delay or omission by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative.

SECTION 7.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. When a Default is waived, it is deemed cured and the Borrower, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be restored to their former positions and rights under this Agreement, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any consequent right.

SECTION 7.05. Control by Majority. The Required Lenders may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Administrative Agent or of exercising any power conferred on the Administrative Agent. However, the

-87-

Administrative Agent may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Agreement or that the Administrative Agent determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of any other Lender or that would involve the Administrative Agent in personal liability; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may take any other action deemed proper by the Administrative Agent that is not inconsistent with such direction. Prior to taking any action under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.

SECTION 7.06. Limitation on Suits.

(a) Except to enforce the right to receive payment of principal, premium (if any) or interest when due, no Lender may pursue any remedy with respect to this Agreement or the Loans unless:

(i) such Lender has previously given the Administrative Agent notice that an Event of Default is continuing,

(ii) Lenders holding at least 25% in principal amount of the Loans outstanding have requested the Administrative Agent to pursue the remedy,

(iii) such Lenders have offered the Administrative Agent reasonable security or indemnity against any loss, liability or expense,

(iv) The Administrative Agent has not complied with such request within 60 days after the receipt of the request and the offer of security or indemnity, and

(v) The Required Lenders have not given the Administrative Agent a direction inconsistent with such request within such 60-day period.

(b) A Lender may not use this Agreement to prejudice the rights of another Lender or to obtain a preference or priority over another Lender.

SECTION 7.07. Rights of the Lenders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right of any Lender to receive payment of principal of and interest on the Loans held by such Lender, on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for in the Loans, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Lender.

SECTION 7.08. Priorities. If the Administrative Agent collects any money or property pursuant to this Article VII, it shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

FIRST: to the Administrative Agent for amounts due under Section 8;

SECOND: to Lenders for amounts due and unpaid on the Loans for principal, premium, if any, and interest, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Loans for principal and interest, respectively; and

-88-

THIRD: to the Borrower or, to the extent the Administrative Agent collects any amount for any Guarantor, to such Guarantor.

The Administrative Agent may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to the Lenders pursuant to this Article VII. At least 15 days before such record date, the Administrative Agent shall mail or electronically transmit to each Lender and the Borrower a notice that states the record date, the payment date and amount to be paid.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent

SECTION 8.01. Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent. The Syndication Agent, in its capacity as such, shall have no obligations, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement but shall be entitled to all benefits of this Article VIII.

SECTION 8.02. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

SECTION 8.03. Exculpatory Provisions. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates shall be (a) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except for its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (b) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by the Borrower, or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of the Borrower to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.

-89-

The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of the Borrower.

SECTION 8.04. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the Lender specified in the Register with respect to any amount owing hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

SECTION 8.05. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a 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.” In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders, provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders (except to the extent that this Agreement requires that such action be taken only with the approval of the Required Lenders or each of the Lenders, as applicable).

SECTION 8.06. Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and made its own decision to make its

-90-

Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other 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 Borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, assets, operations, properties, financial condition, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

SECTION 8.07. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective portions of the Loans held by such Lenders in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their respective portions of the Loans held by such Lenders in effect immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing, provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 8.07 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

SECTION 8.08. Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower, as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. With respect to the Loans made by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

SECTION 8.09. Successor Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 20 days’ prior written notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other

-91-

Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be approved by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) so long as no Default or Event of Default is continuing, whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 8.10. Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If any Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses.

ARTICLE IX

Miscellaneous

SECTION 9.01. Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Without Consent of the Lenders. The Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend this Agreement without notice to or consent of any Lender:

After an amendment under this Section 9.01(a) becomes effective, the Administrative Agent shall mail to Lenders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Lenders, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 9.01(a).

(b) With Consent of the Lenders. The Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend this Agreement with the written consent of the Required Lenders. However, without the consent of each Lender of an outstanding Loan affected, an amendment may not:

(i) reduce the amount of Loans whose Lenders must consent to an amendment,

(ii) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on the Loans,

(iii) reduce the principal of or change the Stated Maturity of the Loans,

(vii) expressly subordinate the Loans to any other Indebtedness of the Borrower.

It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Lenders under this Section 9.01(b) to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.

After an amendment under this Section 9.01(b) becomes effective, the Administrative Agent shall provide to the Lenders a notice briefly describing such amendment. The failure to give such notice to all Lenders entitled to receive such notice, or any defect therein, shall not impair or affect the validity of an amendment under this Section 9.01(b).

(c) All Lenders holding Loans issued under this Agreement shall vote and consent together on all matters (as to which any such Loans may vote) as one class and no Lenders will have the right to vote or consent as a separate class on any matter.

Except as otherwise set forth herein, all notices, requests and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto to be effective shall be in writing (including by facsimile or electronic mail), and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered, or three days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, or, in the case of telecopy or electronic mail notice, when received, addressed as follows in the case of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and as set forth on Schedule 2.01 in the case of the other parties hereto, or to such other address as may be hereafter notified by the respective parties hereto:

SECTION 9.06. Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower or without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.06. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and to the Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 9.06) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

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

-95-

written consent (such consent not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; it being understood that, without limitation, the Borrower shall have the right to withhold its consent to any assignment if, in order for such assignment to comply with applicable law, the Borrower would be required to obtain the consent of, or make any filing or registration with, any Governmental Authority) of:

(A) the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender (unless increased costs would result therefrom except if an Event of Default under Section 7.1(a), (b), (g) or (h) has occurred and is continuing), an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default under Section 7.1(a), (b), (g) or (h) has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee; provided, however, that during the initial syndication of the Loans, as reasonably determined by the Lead Arrangers, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to assignment to any Lender if such Lender was previously identified in the initial allocations of the Loans provided by the Lead Arrangers to the Borrower and reviewed and approved by the Borrower on or prior to the Closing Date; and

(B) the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of any Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, the amount of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1.0 million , and increments of $1.0 million in excess thereof, unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided, further, that contemporaneous assignments to a single assignee made by Affiliates of Lenders and related Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of meeting the minimum assignment amount requirements stated above;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, provided that only one such fee shall be payable in the event of simultaneous assignments to or from two or more Approved Funds; and

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in a form approved by the Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Questionnaire”).

-96-

For the purpose of this Section 9.06(b), the term “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and that is administered, advised or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers, advises or manages a Lender.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section 9.06, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.09, 2.10, 2.16 and 9.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.06 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 9.06.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Lending Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans (the “Register”). Further, the Register shall contain the name and address of the Administrative Agent and the lending office through which each such Person acts under this Agreement. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.06 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.06, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments 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

-97-

Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 9.06, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be a Lender for purposes of Sections 2.09, 2.10, 2.16, 9.06(b)(iv), 9.07, 9.08(a) and 9.08(b).

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.09 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or the right to a greater payment results from a change in Law after the Participant becomes a Participant.

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 9.06 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. In order to facilitate such pledge or assignment, the Borrower hereby agrees that, upon request of any Lender at any time and from time to time after the Borrower has made the borrowing hereunder, the Borrower shall provide to such Lender, at the Borrower’s own expense, a Note, substantially in the form of Exhibit C.

(e) Subject to Section 9.16, the Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant, secured creditor of such Lender or assignee (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all financial information in such Lender’s possession concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates that has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates pursuant to this Agreement or which has been delivered to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower and its Affiliates in connection with such Lender’s credit evaluation of the Borrower and its Affiliates prior to becoming a party to this Agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no participations shall be sold to, nor any Loans or Commitments assigned to Ineligible Institutions.

SECTION 9.07. Replacements of Lenders Under Certain Circumstances.

(a) The Borrower shall be permitted to replace any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.09, 2.11 or 2.16 or (b) is affected in the manner described in Section 2.09(a)(iii) and as a result thereof of the action described in Section 2.09(b) is required to be taken, with a replacement bank or other financial institution, provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Event of Default

-98-

shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the Borrower shall repay (or the replacement bank or institution shall purchase, at par) all Loans and other amounts (other than any disputed amounts), pursuant to Section 2.09, 2.10, 2.11 or 2.16, as the case may be) owing to such replaced Lender prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the replacement bank or institution, if not already a Lender, and the terms and conditions of such replacement, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (v) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.06 (provided that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein) and (vi) 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.

(b) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 9.01(b) requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then provided no Event of Default (other than an Event of Default relating to the proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination) at issue then exists, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by deeming such Non-Consenting Lender to have assigned its Loans, and its Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees, reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, provided that: (a) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, and (b) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. No action by or consent of the Non-Consenting Lender shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment, the Borrower, Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.06.

SECTION 9.08. Adjustments; Set-off.

(a) If any Lender (a “benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Article VII, or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, or interest thereon, such benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the

-99-

right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

SECTION 9.09. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.10. 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.

SECTION 9.11. Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

(iv) 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

The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall hold all non-public information furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with such Lender’s evaluation of whether to become a Lender hereunder or obtained by such Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement (“Confidential Information”) (it being understood that all information delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed Confidential Information unless marked “Public”), confidential in accordance with its customary procedure for handling confidential information of this nature and (in the case of a Lender that is a bank) in accordance with safe and sound banking practices and in any event may make disclosure as required or requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process or to such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s attorneys, professional advisors or independent auditors or Affiliates, provided that unless specifically prohibited by applicable law, rule, regulation, court order or other legal or regulatory process, each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the financial condition of such Lender by such governmental agency and excluding any request made by any regulatory authority in connection with any routine supervisory or regulatory review) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information, and provided, further, that in no event shall any Lender or the Administrative Agent be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agrees that it will not provide to prospective Transferees or to prospective direct or indirect contractual counterparties in swap agreements to be entered into in connection with Loans made hereunder any of the Confidential Information unless such Person is advises of and agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 9.16.

SECTION 9.17. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledge its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) the credit facility provided for hereunder and any related arranging or other services in connection therewith (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) are an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Borrower, and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the other Agents, on the other hand, and the Borrower is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or thereof); (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transaction, the Administrative Agent and each other Agent each is and has been acting

-102-

solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary, for the Borrower, or any of its Affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other Person; (iii) neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Agent has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto, including with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document (irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent or any other Agent has advised or is currently advising the Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates on other matters) and neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Agent has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; (iv) the Administrative Agent and the other Agents and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Agent has any obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; and (v) the Administrative Agent and the other Agents have not provided and will not provide any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby (including any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate. The Borrower hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent and the other Agents with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.

SECTION 9.18. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

SECTION 9.19. Conversion of Currencies.

(a) If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b) The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency

-103-

with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss. The obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 9.19 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

SECTION 9.20. Release of Guarantees. Any future Guarantee as to any Restricted Subsidiary shall terminate and be of no further force or effect and such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be deemed to be released from all obligations under this Agreement upon:

(ii) the Borrower designating such Guarantor to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the provisions set forth under Section 6.02 and the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary”;

(iii) in the case of any Restricted Subsidiary which is required to guarantee the Loans pursuant to Section 6.07, the release or discharge of the guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary of Indebtedness of the Borrower or the repayment of the Indebtedness, which resulted in the obligation to guarantee the Loans; or

(iv) if the Borrower’s Obligations under this Agreement have otherwise been repaid or discharged in accordance with the terms hereof.

A Guarantee shall also be automatically released upon the applicable Subsidiary ceasing to be a Subsidiary as a result of any foreclosure of any pledge or security interest securing Bank Indebtedness (as defined in the Opco Indentures) or other exercise of remedies in respect thereof.

SECTION 9.21. No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees and Stockholders. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or holder of any Equity Interests in the Borrower, as such, will have any liability for any obligations of the Borrower under the Loans or this Agreement or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Lender by making a Loan waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for accepting the Loans.
