Each Term Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make a single advance (a “Term Advance”) to the Borrower on the Closing Date in an amount not to exceed such Lender’s Term Commitment at such time. The Term Borrowing shall consist of Term Advances made simultaneously by the Term Lenders ratably according to their Term Commitments. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.01(a) and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.

(b) The Revolving Credit Advances. Each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make advances (each a “Revolving Credit Advance”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an amount for each such Advance not to exceed such Lender’s Unused Revolving Credit Commitment at such time. Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof (other than a Borrowing the proceeds of which shall be used solely to repay or prepay in full outstanding Swing Line Advances or outstanding Letter of Credit Advances) and shall consist of Revolving Credit Advances made simultaneously by the Revolving Credit Lenders ratably according to their Revolving Credit Commitments. Within the limits of each Revolving Credit Lender’s Unused Revolving Credit Commitment in effect from time to time, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(b), prepay pursuant to Section 2.07(a) and reborrow under this Section 2.01(b).

(c) The Swing Line Advances. The Swing Line Bank agrees on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Swing Line Advances to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period (i) in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the lesser of (x) the Swing Line Sublimit and (y) the Swing Line Bank’s Swing Line Commitment at such time and (ii) in an amount for each such Swing Line Advance not to exceed the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders immediately prior to the making of such Swing Line Advance. The Swing Line Bank agrees to make one or more Swing Line Advances on any Business Day. No Swing Line Advance shall be used for the purpose of funding the payment of principal of any other Swing Line Advance. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be in an amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and, notwithstanding Section 2.10, shall be made as a Base Rate Advance by the Swing Line Bank. Within the limits of the Swing Line Sublimit and within the limits referred to in clause (ii) above, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(c), repay pursuant to Section 2.05(d) or prepay pursuant to Section 2.07(a) and reborrow under this Section 2.01(c). Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Advance, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Bank a risk participation in such Swing Line Advance in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Swing Line Advance.

(d) The Letters of Credit. (i) Each Issuing Bank severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to issue standby letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit”) denominated in U.S. dollars or other currencies reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Bank for the account of the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an aggregate Available Amount (i) for all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank not to exceed at any time the lesser of (x) the Letter of Credit Sublimit and (y) such Issuing Banks’ Letter of Credit Commitment at such time and (ii) for each such Letter of Credit not to exceed the aggregate Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders at such time.

(ii) No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date (including all rights of the Borrower or the beneficiary to require renewal) later than the earlier of five Business Days before the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date and one year after the date of issuance thereof, but any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may by its terms be renewable annually automatically, unless such Issuing Bank in its sole discretion has notified the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date for notice of termination set forth in such Letter of Credit but in any event at least 30 Business Days prior to the date of automatic renewal of its election not to renew such Letter of Credit (a “Notice of L/C Termination”); provided that the terms of each Letter of Credit that is automatically renewable annually shall (x) require the Issuing Bank that issued such Letter of Credit to give the beneficiary named in such Letter of Credit notice of any Notice of L/C Termination, (y) permit such beneficiary, upon receipt of such notice, to draw under such Letter of Credit prior to the date such Letter of Credit otherwise would have been automatically renewed and (z) not permit the expiration date (after giving effect to any renewal) of such Letter of Credit in any event to be extended to a date later than five Business Days before the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date. If a Notice of L/C

Termination is given by the relevant Issuing Bank pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, such Letter of Credit shall expire on the date on which it otherwise would have been automatically renewed. Subject to the notice requirement in this clause in the case of automatic renewable Letters of Credit, each Issuing Bank may in its sole discretion determine whether to accept any amendment or renewal of any Letter of Credit proposed by the Borrower.

(iii) Within the limits of the Letter of Credit Facility, and subject to the limits referred to above, the Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit under this Section 2.01(d), repay any Letter of Credit Advances resulting from drawings thereunder pursuant to Section 2.04 and request the issuance of additional Letters of Credit under this Section 2.01(d).

SECTION 2.02. Making the Advances. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.02(b) or 2.04, each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or the first Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Appropriate Lender prompt notice thereof by telecopier or electronic communication. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or by telecopier or electronic communication, in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Facility under which such Borrowing is to be made, (iii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iv) aggregate amount of such Borrowing and (v) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest Period for each such Advance.

After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower by crediting the Borrower’s Account; provided, however, that, in the case of any Revolving Credit Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall first apply such funds to prepay ratably the aggregate principal amount of any Swing Line Advances and Letter of Credit Advances outstanding at such time, together with interest accrued and unpaid thereon to and as of such date.

(b) (i) Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing, by the Borrower to any Swing Line Bank and the Administrative Agent. Each such notice of a Swing Line Borrowing (a “Notice of Swing Line Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or by telecopier or electronic communication, specifying therein the requested (x) date of such Borrowing, (y) amount of such Borrowing and (z) maturity of such Borrowing (which maturity shall be no later than the earliest of (A) the tenth day after the requested date of such Borrowing and (B) the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date.

After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower by crediting the Borrower’s Account.

(ii) The Swing Line Bank may, at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, request on behalf of the Borrower (and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Swing Line Bank to so request on its behalf) that each Revolving Credit Lender make a Base Rate Advance in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of Swing Line Advances then outstanding. Such request shall be deemed to be a Notice of Borrowing for purposes hereof and shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02(a) without regard solely to the minimum amounts specified therein but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. The Swing Line Bank shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Notice of Borrowing promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified in such Notice of Borrowing available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Bank, by deposit to the Administrative Agent’s Account, in same date funds, not later than 11:00 A.M. on the day specified in such Notice of Borrowing.

(iii) If for any reason any Swing Line Advance cannot be refinanced by a Revolving Credit Borrowing as contemplated by Section 2.02(b)(ii), the request for Base Rate Advances submitted by the Swing Line Bank as set forth in Section 2.02(b)(ii) shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Bank that each of the Revolving Credit Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Advance and each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Bank pursuant to Section 2.02(b)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iv) If and to the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made the amount of its Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Advance available to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02(b)(ii), such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of the applicable Notice of Borrowing delivered by the Swing Line Bank until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry practices on interbank compensation.

(v) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Advance pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against the Swing Line Bank, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence of continuance of a Default or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances pursuant to this Section 2.02(b) is subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. No funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Advances, together with interest as provided herein.

(c) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrower may not select Eurodollar Rate Advances (A) for the initial Borrowing hereunder, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise consents and such initial Borrowing is a Term Borrowing, or (B) for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $1,000,000 or if the obligation of the Appropriate Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.10 or 2.11 and (ii) the Term Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than 5 separate Borrowings and the Revolving Credit Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than 10 separate Borrowings.

(d) Each Notice of Borrowing and each Notice of Swing Line Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrower shall indemnify each Appropriate Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from an Appropriate Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay or pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount and to pay interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid or paid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at such time under Section 2.08 to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry practices on interbank compensation. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes.

(f) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

SECTION 2.03. Issuance of Letters of Credit. (a) Request for Issuance. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day that occurs 5 Business Days (or such later day as mutually agreed) prior to the date of the

proposed issuance of such Letter of Credit, by the Borrower to any Issuing Bank, which shall give to the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Credit Lender, in the case of Letters of Credit, prompt notice thereof by telecopier or electronic communication. Each such notice of issuance of a Letter of Credit (a “Notice of Issuance”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or by telecopier or electronic communication, specifying therein the requested (A) date of such issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (B) Available Amount of such Letter of Credit, (C) expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (D) name and address of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit and (E) form of such Letter of Credit, and shall be accompanied by such application and agreement for letter of credit as such Issuing Bank may specify to the Borrower for use in connection with such requested Letter of Credit (a “Letter of Credit Agreement”). If (x) the requested form of such Letter of Credit is in such Issuing Bank’s then current standard form with such revisions as shall be requested by the Borrower and approved by such Issuing Bank in its sole discretion and (y) it has received (i) information required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation the Patriot Act, that such Issuing Bank has reasonably requested, in each case with respect to the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit and (ii) confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof (which confirmation shall be provided promptly), such Issuing Bank will, upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, make such Letter of Credit available to the Borrower at its office referred to in Section 10.02 or as otherwise agreed with the Borrower in connection with such issuance. In the event and to the extent that the provisions of any Letter of Credit Agreement shall conflict with this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. Each Issuing Bank may determine in its sole discretion whether to, and shall have no obligation to, issue, amend, modify, transfer any Letter of Credit if any such action shall be prohibited by applicable law, including, without limitation, United States, European Union, United Nations, and foreign sovereign judicial orders and government regulations that mandate dishonor of Letter of Credit obligations and that are enforceable under the applicable law.

(b) Letter of Credit Reports. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative agent, each Issuing Bank shall furnish to the Administrative Agent (A) on the first Business Day of each month a written report summarizing issuance and expiration dates of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the preceding month and drawings during such month under all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank and (B) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report setting forth the average daily aggregate Available Amount during the preceding calendar quarter of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

(d) Applicability of ISP98. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower, when a Letter of Credit is issued the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) shall apply to each Letter of Credit.

SECTION 2.04. Drawings and Reimbursement under Letters of Credit. Each L/C Disbursement by any Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement the making by such Issuing Bank of a Letter of Credit Advance, which shall be a Base Rate Advance, in the amount of such L/C Disbursement. Each Issuing Bank agrees to give the Administrative Agent prompt notice of each L/C Disbursement under each Letter of Credit issued by it. In consideration of its obligations to purchase participations in the Letters of Credit, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower by 11:00 A.M.

Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to pay for its participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any off-set, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of such Issuing Bank on any Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Letter of Credit Advance made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Letter of Credit Advance made by such Issuing Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day. The failure of any Lender to make the Letter of Credit Advance to be made by it on the date specified in this Section 2.04 shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Letter of Credit Advance on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Letter of Credit Advance to be made by such other Lender on such date.

SECTION 2.05. Repayment of Advances. (a) Term Advances.

Each such prepayment shall be applied first to the installments of the Term Facility pro rata and second to the Revolving Credit Facility as set forth in clause (v) below.

(ii) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Cash Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, the Borrower shall, within five Business Days after such Net Cash Proceeds are received, pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent

for the account of the Lender Parties an aggregate principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowings and deposit an amount in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, in the case of the Revolving Credit Facility (to be applied in accordance with Section 2.07(b)(v)), in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds, provided that, in the case of any event described in clause (a) or (c) of the definition of “Net Cash Proceeds”, if the Borrower or any Subsidiary applies the Net Cash Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof) (i) within 365 days after receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds and (ii) at a time when no Default has occurred and is continuing, to acquire real property, equipment or other tangible assets to be used in the business of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries (provided that, the Borrower has delivered to the Administrative Agent within five Business Days after such Net Cash Proceeds are received a certificate of a Responsible Officer stating its intention to do so and certifying that no Default has occurred and is continuing), then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Cash Proceeds in respect of such event (or the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds specified in such certificate, if applicable) except to the extent of any such Net Cash Proceeds that have not been so applied by the end of such 365 days (or, if committed during such 365 days to be so applied, within 90 days of the end of such 365 days), at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds that have not been so applied. Each such prepayment shall be applied first to the installments of Term Facility pro rata and second to the Revolving Credit Facility as set forth in clause (v) below.

(iii) The Borrower shall, on each Business Day, prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Credit Advances comprising part of the same Borrowings, the Letter of Credit Advances and the Swing Line Advances and deposit an amount in the L/C Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to the amount by which (A) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of (x) the Revolving Credit Advances, (y) the Letter of Credit Advances and (z) the Swing Line Advances then outstanding plus the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding exceeds (B) the Revolving Credit Facility on such Business Day.

(iv) The Borrower shall, on each Business Day, pay to the Administrative Agent for deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account an amount sufficient to cause the aggregate amount on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account to equal the amount by which the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding exceeds the Letter of Credit Facility on such Business Day.

(v) Prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility made pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above shall be first applied to prepay Letter of Credit Advances then outstanding until such Advances are paid in full, second applied to prepay Swing Line Advances then outstanding until such Advances are paid in full, third applied to prepay Revolving Credit Advances then outstanding comprising part of the same Borrowings until such Advances are paid in full and fourth deposited in the L/C Cash Collateral Account to Cash Collateralize the Available Amount of the L/C’s then outstanding; and, in the case of prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility required pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, the amount remaining (if any) after the prepayment in full of the Advances then outstanding and the Cash Collateralization of the aggregate Available Amount of L/C’s then outstanding (the sum of such prepayment amounts in respect of Revolving Credit Advances, Letter of Credit Advances and Swing Line Advances, Cash Collateralization amounts and remaining amount being referred to herein as the “Revolving Reduction Amount”) may be retained by the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Facility shall be

permanently reduced as set forth in Section 2.06(b)(iv). Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral Account, such funds shall be applied to reimburse the relevant Issuing Bank or Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable.

(vi) All prepayments under this subsection (b) shall be made together with accrued interest and Letter of Credit Fees to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid, together with any amounts owing pursuant to Section 10.04(c).

(i) Base Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Base Rate Advance and for each Swing Line Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times to the sum of (x) the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears (A) in the case of a Base Rate Advance that is not a Swing Line Advance, quarterly on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December during such periods and on the date such Base Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full or (B) in the case of a Base Rate Advance that is a Swing Line Advance, on the date such Swing Line Advance shall be paid in full.

(ii) Eurodollar Rate Advances. During such periods as such Advance is a Eurodollar Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of (A) the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period for such Advance plus (B) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period and, if such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day that occurs during such Interest Period every three months from the first day of such Interest Period and on the date such Eurodollar Rate Advance shall be Converted or paid in full.

(b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default under Section 7.01(a) or an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, and upon the request of the Required Lenders shall, require that the Borrower pay interest (“Default Interest”) on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender Party, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 2.08(a), as applicable, and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) of Section 2.08(a), as applicable, and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Agent or any Lender Party that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Advances pursuant to clause (i) of Section 2.08(a); provided, however, that following the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 7.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.01, Default Interest shall accrue and be payable hereunder whether or not previously required by the Administrative Agent.

(c) Notice of Interest Period and Interest Rate. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(a), a notice of Conversion pursuant to Section 2.10 or a notice of selection of an Interest Period pursuant to the terms of the definition of “Interest Period,” the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and each Appropriate Lender of the applicable Interest Period and the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) above.

(b) Letter of Credit Fees, Etc. The Borrower shall pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share a letter of credit fee (a “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Advances that are Eurodollar Rate Advances times the average daily aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit issued and outstanding from time to time and (ii) to the respective Issuing Bank, for its own account, (x) a fronting fee at the rate of 0.25% per annum on the Available Amount of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank under the Revolving Credit Facility, payable in arrears quarterly on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing December 31, 2011, and on the last Business Day of the Availability Period, and (y) other customary administrative, issuance, amendment, transfer and other charges,.

(c) Agents’ Fees. The Borrower shall pay to each Agent for its own account such fees as may from time to time be agreed between the Borrower and such Agent.

SECTION 2.10. Conversion of Advances. (a) Optional. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Section 2.11, Convert all or any portion of the Advances of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided, however, that any

Conversion of Eurodollar Rate Advances into Base Rate Advances shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advances, any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(c), no Conversion of any Advances shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(c) and each Conversion of Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing under any Facility shall be made ratably among the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with their Commitments under such Facility. Each such notice of Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Advances to be Converted and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for such Advances. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.

(b) Mandatory. (i) On the date on which the aggregate unpaid principal amount of Eurodollar Rate Advances comprising any Borrowing shall be reduced, by payment or prepayment or otherwise, to less than $1,000,000, such Advances shall automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into Base Rate Advances.

(ii) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Advances in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Appropriate Lenders, whereupon each such Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance.

(iii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, (x) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (y) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended.

SECTION 2.11. Increased Costs, Etc. (a) If, due to a Change in Law (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender Party of agreeing to make or of making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances or of agreeing to issue or of issuing or maintaining or participating in Letters of Credit or of agreeing to make or of making or maintaining Letter of Credit Advances, excluding any such increased costs resulting from (x) Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.13 shall govern) and (y) Excluded Taxes (but including any capital or other non-income taxes imposed on a Lender Party on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto), then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) If any Lender Party determines that a Change in Law (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender Party or any corporation controlling such Lender Party and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender Party’s

commitment to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder and other commitments of such type or the issuance or maintenance of or participation in the Letters of Credit (or similar Guarantee), then, upon demand by such Lender Party or such corporation (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party, from time to time as specified by such Lender Party, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender Party’s commitment to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder or to the issuance or maintenance of or participation in any Letters of Credit. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower by such Lender Party shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances under any Facility, Lenders owed at least 50% of the then aggregate unpaid principal amount thereof notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Appropriate Lenders, whereupon (i) each such Eurodollar Rate Advance under such Facility will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Appropriate Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance under each Facility under which such Lender has a Commitment will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Appropriate Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended, in each case until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

(e) In the event that any Lender Party demands payment of costs or additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.11 or Section 2.13 or asserts, pursuant to Section 2.11(d), that it is unlawful for such Lender Party to make Eurodollar Rate Advances, fails to approve a requested waiver or amendment which requires the approval of such Lender to become effective but is otherwise approved by the Required Lenders or becomes a Defaulting Lender then (subject to such Lender Party’s right to rescind such demand or assertion within 10 days after the notice from the Borrower referred to below) the Borrower may, upon 20 days’ prior written notice to such Lender Party and the Administrative Agent, elect to cause such Lender Party to assign its Advances and Commitments in full to one or more Persons selected by the Borrower so long as (i) each such Person satisfies the criteria of an Eligible Assignee and is reasonably satisfactory to

the Administrative Agent, (ii) such Lender Party receives payment in full in cash of the outstanding principal amount of all Advances made by it and all accrued and unpaid interest and Letter of Credit Fees thereon and all other amounts due and payable to such Lender Party as of the date of such assignment (including, without limitation, amounts owing pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.13 and 10.04) and (iii) each such assignee agrees to accept such assignment and to assume all obligations of such Lender Party hereunder in accordance with Section 10.07.

(f) The Borrower shall pay to each Lender Party, as long as such Lender Party shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Advance equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Advance by such Lender Party (as determined by such Lender Party in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Advance, provided the Borrower shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender Party. If a Lender Party fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant due date of any interest payment, such additional interest shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.

SECTION 2.12. Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.16), not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account in same day funds, with payments being received by the Administrative Agent after such time being deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause like funds to be distributed (i) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of principal, interest, commitment fees or any other Obligation then payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to more than one Lender Party, to such Lender Parties for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices ratably in accordance with the amounts of such respective Obligations then payable to such Lender Parties and (ii) if such payment by the Borrower is in respect of any Obligation then payable hereunder to one Lender Party, to such Lender Party for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 10.07(d), from and after the effective date of such Assignment and Assumption, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

(b) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of fees (including Letter of Credit Fees) and Letter of Credit commissions shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate, fee or commission hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment or letter of credit fee or commission, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender Party hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Lender Party on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender Party. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Lender Party shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender Party together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender Party until the date such Lender Party repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry practices on interbank compensation.

(e) Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Agents and the Lender Parties under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Agents and the Lender Parties in the following order of priority:

(i) first, to the payment of all of the fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Agents (solely in their respective capacities as Agents) under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Agents on such date;

(ii) second, to the payment of all of the fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank (solely in their respective capacities as such) under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Bank on such date;

(iii) third, to the payment of all of the indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Lenders under Sections 10.04 hereof, Section 20 of the Security Agreement and any similar section of any of the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Lenders on such date;

(iv) fourth, to the payment of all of the amounts that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties under Sections 2.11 and 2.13 hereof on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts thereof owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties on such date;

(v) fifth, to the payment of all of the fees that are due and payable to the Lenders under Section 2.09(a) on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate Commitments of the Lenders under the Facilities on such date;

(vi) sixth, to the payment of all of the accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations that is due and payable on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of such interest; and

(vii) seventh, to the payment of the principal and other amounts of all of the outstanding Obligations that is due and payable on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such principal and other amounts.

(f) If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the Advances or the Facility to which, or the manner in which, such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lender Parties in accordance with such Lender Party’s Pro Rata Share of the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances outstanding at such time and (ii) the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Advances or other Obligations then owing to such Lender Party, and, in the case of the Term Facility, for application to such principal repayment installments thereof, as the Administrative Agent shall direct.

SECTION 2.13. Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by any Loan Party to or for the account of any Lender Party or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.12 or the applicable provisions of such other Loan Document, if any, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings or other similar amounts imposed by any Governmental Authority (together with any interest, additions to tax or penalties applicable thereto, “Taxes”). If, however, any Loan Party shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender Party or any Agent, (i) to the extent such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as may be necessary so that after such Loan Party and the Administrative Agent have made all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.13) such Lender Party or such Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make all such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, each Loan Party shall pay any present or future stamp, documentary, excise, property, intangible, mortgage recording or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made by such Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) The Loan Parties shall indemnify each Lender Party and each Agent for and hold them harmless against the full amount of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) required to be paid by such Lender Party or such Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to such Loan Parties by such Lender Party or such Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender Party or such Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the appropriate Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 7.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment, to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. For purposes of subsections (d) and (e) of this Section 2.13, the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Code.

(e) Each Lender Party organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender Party and on the date of the Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which it becomes a Lender Party in the case of each other Lender Party, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower (but only so long thereafter as such Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with two original Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender Party is exempt from or entitled to a reduced rate of United States withholding tax on payments pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(f) For any period with respect to which a Lender Party has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate form, certificate or other document described in subsection (e) above (other than if such failure is due to a Change in Law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided or if such form, certificate or other document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender Party shall not be entitled to indemnification under

subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 2.12 with respect to Indemnified Taxes imposed by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Lender Party become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, the Loan Parties shall (at the Lender Party’s expense) take such steps as such Lender Party shall reasonably request to assist such Lender Party to recover such Taxes.

(g) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party determines in its sole discretion that it has received a refund of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which a Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13, it shall pay over such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.13 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or Lender Party (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined by the Administrative Agent or Lender Party in its sole discretion, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or Lender Party agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any interest imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or Lender Party in the event such Administrative Agent or Lender Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or Lender Party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Loan Parties or any other Person.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party determines in its sole discretion that any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which a Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13 was incorrectly assessed or not due under applicable Law, it shall promptly notify the Borrower and, upon request of the Borrower and at the expense of Borrower, such Administrative Agent or Lender Party shall in good faith challenge the imposition of such tax, unless such challenge would have a material adverse effect on the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party.

SECTION 2.14. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender Party shall obtain at any time any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise, other than as a result of an assignment pursuant to Section 10.07 (a) on account of Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all the Lender Parties at such time or (b) on account of Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing to such Lender Party at such time to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other

Loan Documents at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at such time obtained by all of the Lender Parties at such time, such Lender Party shall forthwith purchase from the other Lender Parties such interests or participating interests in the Obligations due and payable or owing to them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender Party to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender Party, such purchase from each other Lender Party shall be rescinded and such other Lender Party shall repay to the purchasing Lender Party the purchase price to the extent of such Lender Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the purchase price paid to such Lender Party to (ii) the aggregate purchase price paid to all Lender Parties) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such other Lender Party’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender Party in respect of the total amount so recovered; and provided further that, so long as the Advances shall not have become due and payable pursuant to Section 7.01, any excess payment received by any Appropriate Lender shall be shared on a pro rata basis only with other Appropriate Lenders. The Loan Parties agree that any Lender Party so purchasing an interest or participating interest from another Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.14 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such interest or participating interest, as the case may be, as fully as if such Lender Party were the direct creditor of the Loan Parties in the amount of such interest or participating interest, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.15. Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Advances and issuances of Letters of Credit shall be available (a) for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes, including the financing, in whole or in part, of Permitted Acquisitions and (b) in the case of the Term Advances, to finance in part the Merger and to refinance all amounts outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreements and other Existing Indebtedness (other than Surviving Indebtedness), in each case, not in contravention of any Law or of any Loan Document and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions.

SECTION 2.16. Defaulting Lender. (a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender Party becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender Party is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders.

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.05 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such

Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Bank hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.17; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Advances under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.17; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Lender Party as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender Party against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances or L/C Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Advances were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Advances and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Advances are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender Party irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees.

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.17.

(C) With respect to any Commitment Fee or Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Advances that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below and (y) pay to each Issuing Bank and Swing Line Bank, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or Swing Line Bank’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender.

(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Advances shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Line Advances. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Borrowings in an amount equal to the Swing Line Banks’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.17.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Bank and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender Party is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender Party will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Commitments of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances to be held pro rata by the Lender Parties in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility (without giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will

cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender Party was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender Party will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender Party’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) New Swing Line Advances/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender Party is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Bank shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Advances unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Advance and (ii) no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

SECTION 2.17. Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, if, after giving effect to reallocation of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Advances pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(iv), there shall exist any remaining Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize such Fronting Exposure in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.

(a) Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.17 or Section 2.16 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of each Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(c) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.16 or this Section 2.17 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender Party), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.16 the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

SECTION 2.18. Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender Party shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender Party from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. The Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender Party to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a promissory note or other evidence of indebtedness is required or appropriate in order for such Lender Party to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender Party, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender Party, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a Revolving Credit Note or a Term Note, as applicable, in substantially the form of Exhibits A-1 and A-2 hereto, respectively, payable to the order of such Lender Party in a principal amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment and the Term Advances, respectively, of such Lender Party. All references to Notes in the Loan Documents shall mean Notes, if any, to the extent issued hereunder.

(b) The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.07(d) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender Party, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender Party hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender Party’s share thereof.

(c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to subsection (b) above, and by each Lender Party in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender Party and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender Party, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.

SECTION 2.19. Incremental Term Facilities. (a) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date and prior to the Term Facility Maturity Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent, request (x) the addition of one or more new term loan facilities or an increase in the Term Commitments (each of such commitment increases and any such new term loan facility being an “Incremental Term Facility” and the commitment of any lender with respect to any Incremental Term Facility being an “Incremental Term Commitment”) to be effective as of a date (the “Increase Date”) specified in the related notice to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that (i) in no event shall the aggregate amount of all Incremental Term Commitments exceed $400,000,000; (ii) each Incremental Term Facility shall be in an

amount not less than $25,000,000; (iii) no more than 4 such requests may be made pursuant to this Section 2.19 in respect of the Incremental Term Facilities; (iv) on the date of any request by the Borrower for an Incremental Term Commitment and on the related Increase Date, the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.02 and in clause (d) of this Section 2.19 shall be satisfied; (v) after giving effect to the incurrence of any Incremental Term Facility, the Borrower shall be in Pro Forma compliance with all financial covenants set forth in Section 6.11; (vi) any Incremental Term Facility shall have a final maturity date no earlier than the Term Facility Maturity Date and the weighted average life to maturity of any Incremental Term Facility shall be no shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the Term Facility; (vii) any Incremental Term Facility shall bear interest at a rate per annum as determined by the Borrower and the lenders under such Incremental Term Facility; provided that in the event that the Applicable Margin for any Advances under any Incremental Term Facility is more than 50 basis points greater than the Applicable Margin for the Term Advances, then the Applicable Margin for the Term Advances shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Applicable Margin for any Advances under the Incremental Term Facility is no more than 50 basis points greater than the Applicable Margin for the Term Advances; provided further that in determining the Applicable Margin applicable to the Term Advances, and any Advances under the Incremental Term Facility, (x) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Borrower to the Lenders in the primary syndication thereof shall be included (with OID being equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity), (y) customary arrangement or commitment fees payable to the Lead Arranger (or its affiliates) or to one or more arrangers (or their affiliates) of such loans shall be excluded and (z) no Eurocurrency Rate or Base Rate “floors” applicable to any Advances under any Incremental Term Facility shall be higher than the Eurocurrency Rate or Base Rate “floors” applicable to the Term Advances; (viii) the Term Lenders shall initially have the right, but not the obligation, to commit to up to their pro rata portion of any Incremental Term Facility; (ix) each Incremental Facility may be secured by either a pari passu or junior lien on the Collateral securing the Facilities in each case on terms satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; (x) to the extent the terms and documentation of any Incremental Term Facility are not consistent with the Facilities (except to the extent permitted by clause (vi) or (vii) above), they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and (xi) the Loan Documents may be amended by the Administrative Agent, the Loan Parties and the Term Lenders providing an Incremental Term Facility, to the extent necessary to evidence such Incremental Term Facility consistent with this Section 2.19(a), without the consent of any other Lender Party.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Term Lenders of a request by the Borrower for an Incremental Term Facility, which notice shall include (i) the proposed amount of such requested Incremental Term Commitment, (ii) the proposed Increase Date and (iii) the date by which the relevant Lenders wishing to participate in the Incremental Term Commitment must commit to an increase in the amount of their respective Commitments (which shall in no event be less than ten Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the relevant Lenders) (the “Incremental Term Commitment Date”). Each relevant Lender that is willing to participate in the requested Incremental Commitment (each an “Increasing Lender”) shall, in its sole discretion, give written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Incremental Term Commitment Date of the amount by which it is willing to commit to the Incremental Term Facility. Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to participate in the requested Incremental Term Commitment. If the relevant

Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that they are willing to participate in an Incremental Commitment by an aggregate amount that exceeds the amount of the requested Incremental Commitment, the requested Incremental Term Commitment shall be allocated among the relevant Lenders willing to participate therein in such amounts as are agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(c) Promptly following the applicable Incremental Term Commitment Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower as to the amount, if any, by which the relevant Lenders are willing to participate in the requested Incremental Term Commitment. If the aggregate amount by which the Lenders are willing to participate in the requested Incremental Term Commitment on any such Incremental Term Commitment Date is less than the requested Incremental Term Commitment, then the Borrower may extend offers to one or more Eligible Assignees to participate in any portion of the requested Incremental Term Commitment that has not been committed to by the relevant Lenders as of the Incremental Term Commitment Date; provided, however, that (i) the Commitment of each such Eligible Assignee shall be in an amount equal to at least $1,000,000 and (ii) each such Eligible Assignee shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(d) On the applicable Increase Date, each Eligible Assignee that accepts an offer to participate in a requested Incremental Term Commitment in accordance with Section 2.19(c) (each such Eligible Assignee, an “Assuming Lender”) shall become a Lender Party to this Agreement as of the applicable Increase Date and the Commitment of each Increasing Lender for such Incremental Term Commitment shall be so increased by such amount (or by the amount allocated to such Lender pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.19(b)) as of such Increase Date; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall have received on or before the Increase Date the following, each dated such date:

(i) certified copies of resolutions of the board of directors of the Borrower approving the applicable Incremental Commitment and the corresponding modifications to this Agreement;

(ii) an assumption agreement from each Assuming Lender, if any, in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (each a “Commitment Assumption Agreement”), duly executed by such Eligible Assignee, the Administrative Agent and each Borrower; and

(iii) confirmation from each Increasing Lender of the increase in the amount of its Commitment in a writing satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

On the applicable Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 2.19(d), the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Lender) and the Borrower, on or before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time), by telecopier or telex, of the occurrence of the applicable Incremental Commitment to be effected on the related Increase Date and shall record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Lender and each Assuming Lender on such date. On the applicable Increase Date, the Advances under any Incremental Term Facility that is

to become part of an outstanding Facility shall bear interest at the Eurodollar Rates and for the remainder of the Interest Periods that are then applicable to such outstanding Facility in order to ensure that each Lender under such Facility, after giving effect to the Incremental Term Commitments, is entitled to a ratable share of all interest payments due under such Facility on the same dates.

SECTION 2.20. Extension of Termination Date in Respect of Term Facility. (a) The Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the Lenders) not later than 45 days prior to the Term Facility Maturity Date then in effect hereunder (the “Existing Termination Date”), request that each Term Lender extend such Lender’s Termination Date in respect of the Term Facility to a later date (the “Extended Termination Date”).

(b) Each Term Lender, acting in its sole and individual discretion, shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than the date (the “Notice Date”) that is 35 days prior to the Existing Termination Date, advise the Administrative Agent whether or not such Term Lender agrees to such extension; each Term Lender that determines not to so extend its Termination Date (a “Non-Extending Lender”) shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact promptly after such determination (but in any event no later than the Notice Date) and any Term Lender that does not so advise the Administrative Agent on or before the Notice Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender. The election of any Term Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Term Lender to so agree.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of each Term Lender’s determination under this Section no later than the date 30 days prior to the Existing Termination Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the next preceding Business Day). In connection with any extension of the Term Facility Maturity Date, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended in a writing executed and delivered by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Extending Lenders and the New Extending Lenders (without any further consent of Required Lenders that would otherwise be required under Section 10.01) to reflect any changes necessary to give effect to such extension in accordance with its terms as set forth herein, which may include the addition of the Term Advances of the Extending Lenders and the New Extending Lenders as a separate facility and the inclusion of any such separate facility in the provisions relating to mandatory prepayments set forth in Section 2.07(b) and to sharing set forth in Section 2.14 in a manner consistent with the treatment hereunder of the Term Facility; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.20 or otherwise, no Term Advances for which the Term Facility Maturity Date shall have been extended may be optionally prepaid prior to the date on which the non-extended Term Advances are repaid in full.

(d) The Borrower shall have the right to replace each Non-Extending Lender with, and add as “Term Lenders” under this Agreement in place thereof, one or more Eligible Assignees (each, a “New Extending Lender”) as provided in Section 10.07; provided that each of such New Extending Lenders shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption pursuant to which such New Extending Lender shall, effective as of the Existing Termination Date, purchase a Term Advance at par (and, if any such New Extending Lender is already a Term Lender, such Term Advance shall be in addition to any other Term Advance of such Lender hereunder on such date).

(e) Effective as of the Existing Termination Date, the Term Facility Maturity Date in respect of each of the Term Lenders that have agreed so to extend their Term Facility Maturity Date (each, an “Extending Lender”) and of each New Extending Lender shall be extended to the Extended Termination Date (except that, if such date is not a Business Day, such Maturity Date as so extended shall be the next preceding Business Day) and each New Extending Lender shall thereupon become a “Term Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no extension of the Term Facility Maturity Date with respect to any Term Lender shall become effective under this Section 2.20 unless (i) on the Existing Termination Date, the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated the Existing Termination Date and executed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, (ii) all reasonable fees and expenses owing to the Administrative Agent, the Extending Lenders and the New Extending Lenders shall have been paid, (iii) no Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall have received (with sufficient copies for each of such Extending Lenders) legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and substantially consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 3.01.

(g) This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.14 or 10.01 to the contrary.

100

(b) No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.01 or 7.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or the event or events that give or may give rise to any Default unless and until notice describing such Default and such event or events is given to such Agent by the Borrower or any Lender Party.

101

(c) No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created by the Collateral Documents or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than (but subject to the foregoing clause (ii)) to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent. Neither any Agent, the Lead Arranger nor any of their Related Parties shall be responsible for the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of any information (whether oral or written) supplied by any Agent, the Lead Arranger, a Loan Party or any other Person given in, pursuant to or in connection with any Loan Document or the Information Memorandum.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall require any Agent or the Lead Arranger to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any person on behalf of any Lender Party and each Lender Party confirms to each Agent and each Lead Arranger that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by any Agent or the Lead Arranger.

Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Without limiting Section 3.03, in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of any Advances, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender Party, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender Party unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender Party prior to the making of such Advances or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

SECTION 8.05. Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by such Agent. Each Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. Each such sub agent and the Related Parties of each Agent and each such sub agent shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article VIII and Article X (as though such sub-agents were the “Administrative Agent” or the “Collateral Agent,” as the case may be, under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. The Agents shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non appealable judgment that an Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

102

SECTION 8.06. Resignation of Agents. (a) Any Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lender Parties and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a commercial bank with an office in the United States or an Affiliate of any such commercial bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (such 30-day period, the “Lender Party Appointment Period”), then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lender Parties, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. In addition and without any obligation on the part of the retiring Agent to appoint, on behalf of the Lender Parties, a successor Agent, the retiring Agent may at any time upon or after the end of the Lender Party Appointment Period notify the Borrower and the Lender Parties that no qualifying Person has accepted appointment as successor Agent and the effective date of such retiring Agent’s resignation.

(b) Upon the resignation effective date established in such notice and regardless of whether a successor Agent has been appointed and accepted such appointment, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective and (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that, in the case of any resignation by the Collateral Agent, the retiring Collateral Agent shall continue to hold any Collateral until such time as a successor Collateral Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the retiring Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender Party directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Agent was acting as Agent.

SECTION 8.07. Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. (a) Each Lender Party confirms to each Agent, each other Lender Party and each of their respective Related Parties that it (i) possesses such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable, without reliance on any Agent, any other Lender Party or any of their respective Related Parties, of evaluating the merits and risks (including tax, legal, regulatory, accounting and other financial matters) of entering into this Agreement, making Advances and other extensions of credit hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and in taking or not taking actions hereunder and thereunder, (ii) is financially able to bear such risk and (iii) has determined that entering into this Agreement and making Advances and other extensions of credit hereunder and under the other Loan Documents is suitable and appropriate for it.

103

Each Lender Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender Party or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to be solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including but not limited to:

(i) the financial condition, status and capitalization of the Borrower and each other Loan Party;

(ii) the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Loan Document;

104

SECTION 8.09. Agents May File Proofs of Claim. (a) In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, any Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Advance or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether such Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Advances, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lender Parties and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lender Parties and the Agents and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lender Parties and the Agents under Sections 2.09 and 10.04 allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender Party to make such payments to such Agent and, in the event that such Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lender Parties, to pay to such Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agents under Sections 2.09 and 10.04.

SECTION 8.10. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. (a) the Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion,

(i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document (x) upon termination of all Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank shall have been made), (y) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted under the Loan Documents, or (z) subject to Section 10.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders;

Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 8.

105

(b) The Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Lender Parties for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

SECTION 8.11. Indemnification. (a) Each Lender Party severally agrees to indemnify each Agent (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower) from and against such Lender Party’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”); provided, however, that no Lender Party shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender Party agrees to reimburse each Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Borrower under Section 10.04, to the extent that such Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 8.11 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender Party or any other Person.

(b) Each Lender Party severally agrees to indemnify each Issuing Bank (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrower) from and against such Lender Party’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Issuing Bank in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents; provided, however, that no Lender Party shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Commitments at such time and (iv) such Lender Party’s Unused Revolving Credit Commitments at such time; provided that the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Advances owing to the Swing Line Bank and of Letter of Credit Advances owing to any Issuing Bank shall be considered to be owed to the Revolving Credit Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitments. The failure of any Lender Party to reimburse any Agent or any Issuing Bank, as the case may be, promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lender Parties to such Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender Party of its obligation hereunder to reimburse such Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender Party shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender Party to reimburse such Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such other Lender Party’s ratable share of such amount. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender Party hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender Party contained in this Section 8.11 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

(e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries;

(f) any failure of any Secured Party to disclose to any Loan Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Loan Party now or hereafter known to such Secured Party (each Guarantor waiving any duty on the part of the Secured Parties to disclose such information);

108

(g) the failure of any other Person to execute or deliver this Agreement, any Guaranty Supplement or any other guaranty or agreement or the release or reduction of liability of any Guarantor or other guarantor or surety with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; or

(h) any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by any Secured Party that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety.

This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Secured Party or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

SECTION 9.03. Waivers and Acknowledgments.

(d) Each Guarantor acknowledges that the Collateral Agent may, without notice to or demand upon such Guarantor and without affecting the liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty, foreclose under any mortgage by nonjudicial sale, and each Guarantor hereby waives any defense to the recovery by the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties against such Guarantor of any deficiency after such nonjudicial sale and any defense or benefits that may be afforded by applicable law.

(e) Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any duty on the part of any Secured Party to disclose to such Guarantor any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties or prospects of any other Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries now or hereafter known by such Secured Party.

109

(f) Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Loan Documents and that the waivers set forth in Section 9.02 and this Section 9.03 are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

SECTION 9.04. Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to exercise any rights that it may now have or hereafter acquire against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s Obligations under or in respect of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Secured Party against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other insider guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, all Letters of Credit and all Secured Hedge Agreements shall have expired or been terminated and the Commitments shall have expired or been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the latest of (a) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, (b) the latest Termination Date and (c) the latest date of expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit and all Secured Hedge Agreements, such amount shall be received and held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other property and funds of such Guarantor and shall forthwith be paid or delivered to the Administrative Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment) to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or to be held as Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment to any Secured Party of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been paid in full in cash, (iii) the latest Termination Date shall have occurred and (iv) all Letters of Credit and all Secured Hedge Agreements shall have expired or been terminated, the Secured Parties will, at such Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment made by such Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty.

SECTION 9.05. Guaranty Supplements. Upon the execution and delivery by any Person of a guaranty supplement in substantially the form of Exhibit E hereto (each, a “Guaranty Supplement”), (a) such Person shall be referred to as an “Additional Guarantor” and shall become and be a Guarantor hereunder, and each reference in this Guaranty to a “Guarantor” shall

110

also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor, and each reference in any other Loan Document to a “Guarantor” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Guarantor, and (b) each reference herein to “this Guaranty,” “hereunder,” “hereof” or words of like import referring to this Guaranty, and each reference in any other Loan Document to the “Guaranty,” “thereunder,” “thereof” or words of like import referring to this Guaranty, shall mean and be a reference to this Guaranty as supplemented by such Guaranty Supplement.

SECTION 9.06. Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all debts, liabilities and other Obligations owed to such Guarantor by each other Loan Party (the “Subordinated Obligations”) to the Guaranteed Obligations to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this Section 9.06:

(a) Prohibited Payments, Etc. Except during the continuance of a Default, each Guarantor may receive regularly scheduled payments from any other Loan Party on account of the Subordinated Obligations. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, however, unless the Required Lenders otherwise agree, no Guarantor shall demand, accept or take any action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations.

(b) Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations. In any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party, each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding (“Post-Petition Interest”)) before such Guarantor receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations.

(c) Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, each Guarantor shall, if the Collateral Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for the Secured Parties and deliver such payments to the Collateral Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations (including all Post-Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

(d) Administrative Agent Authorization. After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default, the Administrative Agent is authorized and empowered (but without any obligation to so do), in its discretion, (i) in the name of each Guarantor, to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, the Subordinated Obligations and to apply any amounts received thereon to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post-Petition Interest), and (ii) to require each Guarantor (A) to collect and enforce, and to submit claims in respect of, the Subordinated Obligations and (B) to pay any amounts received on such obligations to the Administrative Agent for application to the Guaranteed Obligations (including any and all Post-Petition Interest).

111

SECTION 9.07. Continuing Guaranty; Assignments. (a) This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in full force and effect until the latest of (i) the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, (ii) the latest Termination Date and (iii) the latest date of expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit; provided that with respect to any Guarantor, upon (A) the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of the Equity Interests in such Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or (B) the designation of such Guarantor as an Immaterial Subsidiary pursuant to the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent will, reasonably promptly, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor such documents as such Guarantor may reasonably request to evidence the release of such Guarantor from the Guaranty.

(b) This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall (i) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (ii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Secured Parties and their successors, transferees and assigns.

No Guarantor shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lender Parties.

Delivery by telecopier or electronic mail of an executed counterpart of a signature page to any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the Notes shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart thereof.

(b) The Borrower hereby agrees that it will provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (i) relates to a request for a new, or a Conversion of an existing, Borrowing or other Extension of Credit (including any election of an interest rate or interest period relating thereto), (ii) relates to the payment of any principal or other amount due under this Agreement prior to the scheduled date therefor, (iii) provides notice of any Default or Event of Default under this Agreement or (iv) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the effectiveness of this Agreement and/or any Borrowing or other Extension of Credit thereunder (all such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent to an electronic mail address specified by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower. In addition, the Borrower agrees to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent in the manner specified in the Loan Documents but only to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent. The Borrower further agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinks or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).

(c) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE AGENT PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES (COLLECTIVELY, “AGENT PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE BORROWER, ANY LENDER PARTY OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THE

114

BORROWER’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY AGENT PARTY IS FOUND IN A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH AGENT PARTY’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR MATERIAL BREACH OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

(d) The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender Party agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender Party for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender Party agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender Party’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address. Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

(e) Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges that certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to any Loan Party or their securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). Each Loan Party hereby agrees that (i) Communications that are to be made available on the Platform to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC,” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (ii) by marking Communications “PUBLIC,” each Loan Party shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties and the Lenders to treat such Communications as either publicly available information or not material information (although it may contain sensitive business information and remains subject to the confidentiality undertakings of Section 10.11) with respect to such Loan Party or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws, (iii) all Communications marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information,” and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Communications that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information.”

(f) EACH LENDER PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT UNITED STATES FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS PROHIBIT ANY PERSON WITH MATERIAL, NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT AN ISSUER FROM PURCHASING OR SELLING SECURITIES OF SUCH ISSUER OR, SUBJECT TO CERTAIN LIMITED EXCEPTIONS, FROM COMMUNICATING SUCH INFORMATION TO ANY OTHER PERSON. EACH LENDER PARTY AGREES TO COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE LAW AND ITS RESPECTIVE CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS WITH RESPECT TO CONFIDENTIAL AND MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION. Each Lender Party that is not a Public Lender confirms to the Administrative Agent that such Lender Party has adopted

115

and will maintain internal policies and procedures reasonably designed to permit such Lender Party to take delivery of Restricting Information (as defined below) and maintain its compliance with applicable law and its respective contractual obligations with respect to confidential and material non-public information. A Public Lender may elect not to receive Communications and Information that contains material non-public information with respect to the Loan Parties or their securities (such Communications and Information, collectively, “Restricting Information”), in which case it will identify itself to the Administrative Agent as a Public Lender. Such Public Lender shall not take delivery of Restricting Information and shall not participate in conversations or other interactions with the Agent Parties, any Lender Party or any Loan Party concerning the Facility in which Restricting Information may be discussed. No Agent Party, however, shall by making any Communications and Information (including Restricting Information) available to a Lender Party (including any Public Lender), by participating in any conversations or other interactions with a Lender Party (including any Public Lender) or otherwise, be responsible or liable in any way for any decision a Lender Party (including any Public Lender) may make to limit or to not limit its access to the Communications and Information. In particular, no Agent Party shall have, and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of all Agent Parties, hereby disclaims, any duty to ascertain or inquire as to whether or not a Lender Party (including any Public Lender) has elected to receive Restricting Information, such Lender Party’s policies or procedures regarding the safeguarding of material nonpublic information or such Lender Party’s compliance with applicable laws related thereto. Each Public Lender acknowledges that circumstances may arise that requires it to refer to Communications and Information that might contain Restricting Information. Accordingly, each Public Lender agrees that it will nominate at least one designee to receive Communications and Information (including Restricting Information) on its behalf and identify such designee (including such designee’s contact information) on such Public Lender’s Administrative Questionnaire. Each Public Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Public Lender’s designee’s e-mail address to which notice of the availability of Restricting Information may be sent by electronic transmission. Each Public Lender confirms to the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties that are not Public Lenders that such Public Lender understands and agrees that the Administrative Agent and such other Lender Parties may have access to Restricting Information that is not available to such Public Lender and that such Public Lender has elected to make its decision to enter into this Agreement and to take or not take action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement knowing that, so long as such Person remains a Public Lender, it does not and will not be provided access to such Restricting Information. Nothing in this Section 10.02(f) shall modify or limit a Lender Party’s (including any Public Lender) obligations under Section 10.11 with regard to Communications and Information and the maintenance of the confidentiality of or other treatment of Communications or Information.

SECTION 10.03. No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender Party or any Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any Note or any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

116

SECTION 10.04. Costs and Expenses. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay on demand (i) all reasonable and documented costs and expenses of each Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of, or any consent or waiver under, the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, (A) all due diligence, collateral review, syndication, transportation, computer, duplication, appraisal, audit, insurance, consultant, search, filing and recording fees and expenses and (B) the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel for each Agent with respect thereto, with respect to advising such Agent as to its rights and responsibilities, or the perfection, protection or preservation of rights or interests, under the Loan Documents, with respect to negotiations with any Loan Party or with other creditors of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries arising out of any Default or any events or circumstances that may give rise to a Default and with respect to presenting claims in or otherwise participating in or monitoring any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding involving creditors’ rights generally and any proceeding ancillary thereto) and (ii) all costs and expenses of each Agent and each Lender Party in connection with the enforcement of the Loan Documents, whether in any action, suit or litigation, or any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding affecting creditors’ rights generally (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent and each Lender Party with respect thereto).

(b) The Borrower agrees to indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless each Agent, each Lender Party and each of their Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) the Facilities, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or the Letters of Credit, the Transactions Documents or any of the transactions contemplated thereby, including, without limitation, any acquisition or proposed acquisition (including, without limitation, the Transactions) by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates of all or any portion of the Equity Interests in or debt securities or substantially all of the assets of the Target or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Action relating in any way to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or material breach of its obligations under the Loan Documents. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, its directors, shareholders or creditors, any Indemnified Party or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the Transactions is consummated. The Borrower also agrees not to assert any claim against any Agent, any Lender Party or any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Facilities, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances or the Letters of Credit, the Transactions Documents or any of the transactions contemplated by the Transactions Documents.

117

(c) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Advance is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender Party other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.10(b)(i) or 2.11(d), acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 7.01 or for any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender Party other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance upon an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.07 as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.11(e), or if the Borrower fails to make any payment or prepayment of an Advance for which a notice of prepayment has been given or that is otherwise required to be made, whether pursuant to Section 2.05, 2.07 or 7.01 or otherwise, the Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party any amounts required to compensate such Lender Party for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion or such failure to pay or prepay, as the case may be, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender Party to fund or maintain such Advance.

(d) If any Loan Party fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under any Loan Document, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such amount may be paid on behalf of such Loan Party by the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party, in its sole discretion.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in Sections 2.11 and 2.13 and this Section 10.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 10.05. Right of Set-off. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 7.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.01, each Agent and each Lender Party and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and otherwise apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Agent, such Lender Party or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of the Obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether such Agent or such Lender Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such Obligations may be unmatured. Each Agent and each Lender Party agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Agent and each Lender Party and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Agent, such Lender Party and their respective Affiliates may have.

118

SECTION 10.06. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and each Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender Party that such Initial Lender Party has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each Agent and each Lender Party and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each Lender Party.

SECTION 10.07. Successors and Assigns.

(e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender Party and an assignee, together with any Note or Notes (if any) subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Assumption has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and each other Agent. In the case of any assignment by a Lender, within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice and any Note or Notes (if any) subject to such assignment, the Borrower, at its own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note or Notes (if any) a new Note to the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it under each Facility pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption and, if any assigning Lender that had a Note or Notes prior to such assignment has retained a Commitment hereunder under such Facility, a new Note to the order of such assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Assumption and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A-1 and A-2 hereto, as the case may be.

(f) Each Issuing Bank may assign to one or more other Issuing Banks all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the undrawn portion of its Letter of Credit Commitment at any time, subject to (if requested by the Administrative Agent) a processing and recordation fee of $3,500.

(g) Each Lender Party may sell participations to one or more Persons (other than any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments and the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes (if any) held by it); provided that (i) any such sale of a participation shall require prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of the Borrower, provided, further, that with respect to any sale of a participation to a party that is not a TSP, no consent of the Borrower shall be required if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing (it being understood that the Borrower’s withholding of consent to any proposed sale of a participation to a TSP shall be deemed reasonable), (ii) such Lender Party’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitments) shall remain unchanged, (iii) such Lender Party shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iv) such Lender Party shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (v) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender Party in connection with such Lender Party’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (vi) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or release all or substantially all of the Collateral or the value of the Guaranty and (vii) each Lender Party shall keep a record of all participations granted by it and shall make such record available to the Borrower, as may be reasonably requested in writing by the Borrower.

121

(h) The Borrower, prior to granting its consent in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to the definition of “Eligible Assignee” and this Section 10.07, shall be entitled, without limitation of its discretion as to any such consent, to reasonable information from the proposed assignee or participant to verify whether such proposed assignee or participant is a TSP and that such proposed assignment or participation shall not compromise the Borrower’s neutrality obligations as the NANPA as set forth in 47 C.F.R. §52.12; provided that prior to making such information request, the Borrower shall use reasonable efforts to verify whether such proposed assignee or participant is a TSP by accessing the FCC’s website and other available databases or information sites commonly used to conduct such investigations.

(i) Any Lender Party may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender Party by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided, however, that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Information received by it from such Lender Party; provided, further, that no such Information may be furnished to any TSP.

(j) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender Party may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes (if any) held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided that, unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the definition of “Eligible Assignee” and the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender Party (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle that is not a TSP identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Advance that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Advance and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Advance, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Advance pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of an Advance by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Advance were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or

122

similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender Party would be liable, (ii) no SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11 and 2.13 (or any other increased costs protection provision) and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including, without limitation, any indemnification provision herein and the approval of any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the Lender Party of record hereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior Indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or any portion of its interest in any Advance to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Advances to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC that is not a TSP. This subsection (k) may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender, all or any part of whose Advances are being funded by the SPC at the time of such amendment.

SECTION 10.08. Neutrality, Etc. (a) Without limiting the requirement of the Borrower’s prior written consent to any assignment or participation under the definition of “Eligible Assignee” and Section 10.07, no assignment or pledge of any Lender Party’s rights under the Facilities may be made by such Lender Party to a TSP, nor may any Lender sell any participation in all or a portion of its Advances and Commitments under the Facilities to a TSP. The Borrower from time to time may seek to determine whether any Lender Party or participant is or has become a TSP.

(b) In the event that (i) the Borrower determines that a Lender Party is or has become a TSP, (ii) any Lender Party fails to provide the information required under Section 10.08(d) within the 30 day period contemplated therein or (iii) the Borrower, after due investigation, is unable to determine that any Lender Party is not a TSP, then the Borrower may (A) require such Lender Party to assign all of its interests, rights and obligations under the Facilities to an assignee that is not a TSP pursuant to Section 2.11(e), provided that such required assignment shall be conducted as an orderly sell-down of such Lender Party’s position and such Lender Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such assignment as promptly as practicable or (B) if such assignment is not consummated within 90 days after the Borrower’s initial request to such Lender Party to assign its interests, rights and obligations under the Facilities, then the Borrower shall be entitled, without regard to the requirements contained in Section 2.06, 2.07 or 2.14, to prepay such Lender Party’s Advances in full at par (by paying in cash the outstanding principal amount of all such Advances and all accrued and unpaid interest and Letter of Credit Fees thereon and all other amounts due and payable to such Lender Party as of the date of such prepayment (including, without limitation, amounts owing pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.13 and 10.04)) and terminate in full such Lender Party’s Commitments in respect of the Facilities.

123

(c) In the event that (i) the Borrower determines that a participant is or has become a TSP, (ii) any participant fails to provide the information required under Section 10.08(d) within the 30 day period contemplated therein or (iii) the Borrower, after due investigation, is unable to determine that any participant is not a TSP, the Borrower may by written notice request the applicable Lender Party to repurchase such participant’s entire participation interest so that such Participant no longer has any rights with respect to any Advances or Commitments under the Facilities; provided that if such repurchase is not consummated within 90 days after the Borrower’s initial request to the applicable Lender Party to repurchase such participant’s participation interest, then the Borrower shall be entitled at its option either to (A) require the applicable Lender Party to assign all of its interests, rights and obligations under the Facilities to an assignee that is not a TSP pursuant to Section 2.11(e); provided that such required assignment shall be conducted as an orderly sell-down of such Lender Party’s position and such Lender Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect such assignment as promptly as practicable or (B) without regard to the requirements contained in Section 2.06, 2.07 or 2.14, prepay such Lender Party’s Advances in full at par (by paying in cash the outstanding principal amount of all such Advances and all accrued and unpaid interest and Letter of Credit Fees thereon and all other amounts due and payable to such Lender Party as of the date of such prepayment (including, without limitation, amounts owing pursuant to Sections 2.11, 2.13 and 10.04)) and terminate in full such Lender Party’s Commitments in respect of the Facilities.

(d) In the event that, after having used reasonable efforts to determine whether a Lender Party or participant is or has become a TSP, the Borrower is unable to make such a determination, such applicable Lender Party or participant shall, upon the written request of the Borrower, provide the Borrower, within a reasonable period of time (but in any event, not later than 30 days after such request), such information as the Borrower may reasonably request and as is reasonably available in order to determine whether such Lender Party or participant is or has become a TSP. For the avoidance of doubt, in all instances, prior to requesting any information regarding TSP status from any Lender Party or participant, the Borrower shall first use reasonable efforts to verify whether the applicable Lender Party or participant is a TSP by accessing the FCC’s website and other available databases or information sites commonly used to conduct such investigations.

(e) The Borrower agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the TSP Information (as defined below), except that TSP Information may be disclosed (i) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it, (ii) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (iii) with the consent of the party providing the TSP Information, whether Agent, Lender, Issuing Bank or participant or (iv) to the extent such TSP Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (y) becomes available to the Borrower on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Agent or respective Lender, Issuing Bank or participant. For purposes of this Section, “TSP Information” means all information received by the Borrower from the Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any participant relating to the Agent, such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such participant, as the case may be, or any of such Person’s Affiliates or the respective businesses pursuant to or in connection with Section 3.01, Article VIII, the Borrower’s consent rights under the definition of “Eligible Assignee” and Section 10.07 or this Section 10.08, other than any such information that is available to the

124

Borrower on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Agent, such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such participant, as the case may be. The Borrower shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to maintain the confidentiality of TSP Information as provided in this Section if it has exercised reasonable care to protect such TSP Information, and in no event less than the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such TSP Information as it would accord to its own confidential information. The Borrower acknowledges that (a) the TSP Information may include material non-public information concerning each of the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the participants, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including Federal and state securities Laws.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, (i) the taking or enforcement of security interests in or with respect to, or assignment of rights under, the Contractor Services Agreements by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties shall comply in all respects with and be subject to the applicable provisions of the Contractor Services Agreements as in effect on October 10, 2011, (ii) to the extent that any provision hereof or of any other Loan Document, including any grant or provision with respect to enforcement of a security interest in, or with respect to, or assignment of rights under, any Contractor Services Agreement, or any remedies provision with respect thereto, would result in a violation of the provisions of any Contractor Services Agreement as in effect on October 10, 2011, such provision of this Agreement or such other Loan Document shall be null and void solely with respect to such Contractor Services Agreement and (iii) the transfer, de facto or otherwise, of the operational functions under the FCC Contracts to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties shall comply in all respects with and be subject to all FCC regulations and orders. “FCC Contracts” means (a) Contract for NANP Administrator for the Federal Communications Commission, FCC Contract No. CON09000010; FCC Purchase Order No. PUR110000134; (b) Contract for Pooling Administration Services for the Federal Communications Commission, FCC Contract No. CON07000005; and (c) Contract for Internet-based Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) Telephone Numbering Directory Implementation and Operation Services for the Federal Communications Commission, FCC Purchase Order No. PUR08000449.

SECTION 10.09. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery by telecopier or .pdf of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.10. No Liability of the Issuing Banks. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. Neither any Issuing Bank nor any of its officers or directors shall be liable or responsible for: (a) the use that may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith; (b) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged; (c) payment by such Issuing

125

Bank against presentation of documents that do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit, including failure of any documents to bear any reference or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; or (d) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit, except that the Borrower shall have a claim against such Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to the Borrower, to the extent of any direct, but not consequential, damages suffered by the Borrower that the Borrower proves were caused by (i) such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in determining whether documents presented under any Letter of Credit comply with the terms of the Letter of Credit or (ii) such Issuing Bank’s willful failure to make lawful payment under a Letter of Credit after the presentation to it of a draft and certificates strictly complying with the terms and conditions of the Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary.

SECTION 10.11. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee in, or any prospective assignee in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder; (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the Advances or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Advances; (h) with the consent of the Borrower; or (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (y) becomes available to any Lender Party or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to any Lender Party on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

126

SECTION 10.12. Release of Collateral. Upon (A) the sale, lease, transfer or other disposition of any item of Collateral of any Loan Party (including, without limitation, as a result of the sale, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, of the Loan Party that owns such Collateral) in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, or (B) the designation of any Loan Party as an Immaterial Subsidiary pursuant to the terms hereof, the Collateral Agent will, reasonably promptly, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, prior to, or concurrently with, any NGM Restructuring permitted hereunder, and provided that (i) the Borrower has provided a reasonably detailed written request of the Borrower in connection therewith and (ii) the NGM Release Conditions have, or concurrently with the NGM Release shall be, met, the Collateral Agent shall effect the NGM Release.

SECTION 10.13. Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender Party and each Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender Party) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender Party or such Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by any Agent or any Lender Party in order to assist the Agents and the Lender Parties in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act.

SECTION 10.14. Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) The Borrower and each other Loan Party irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Lender Party, any Issuing Bank, or any Related Parties of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Lender Party or any Issuing Bank may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or any other Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(b) The Borrower and each other Loan Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in Section 10.14(a). Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

127

(c) Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents in any suit, action or proceeding brought in the United States of America arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the mailing (by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) or delivering of a copy of such process to such party at its address specified in Section 10.02. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

(d) If the interest rate hereunder on the Obligations is or becomes in excess of the maximum interest rate which the Borrowers are permitted by Law to contract or agree to pay, the rate of interest hereunder on the Obligations shall be deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and all previous payments in excess of such maximum interest rate shall be deemed to have been payments in reduction of principal and not of interest.

SECTION 10.15. Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.
