If the Borrower determines in good faith that any prepayment described under this clause (b) (1) in the case of any prepayment attributable to any Foreign Subsidiary would violate any local law (e.g., financial assistance, corporate benefit, thin capitalization, capital maintenance and similar legal principles, restrictions on upstreaming of cash intra group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the relevant subsidiaries) or (2) would require any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof to incur a material and adverse tax liability (including any withholding tax), in each case, if the amount subject to the relevant prepayment were upstreamed or transferred as a distribution or dividend (any amount limited as set forth in clauses (1) and (2) of this paragraph, a “Restricted Amount”), the amount of the relevant prepayment shall be reduced by the Restricted Amount; provided that (x) any such determination shall be set forth in a certificate from a Responsible Officer to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Lenders) setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such good faith determination and (y) if the circumstance giving rise to any Restricted Amount ceases to exist, the relevant Subsidiary shall repatriate or distribute the amount that no longer constitutes a Restricted Amount to the Borrower for application to the Loans as required above promptly following the date on which the relevant circumstance ceases to exist.

2.6 Incremental Term Loans.

(a) The Borrower may on or prior to the date that is 10 Business Days prior to September 15, 2018, by written notice (each, an “Incremental Request”) to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly make such notice available to each of the Lenders), request from time to time the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (each, an “Incremental Term Commitment”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Incremental Amount from Lenders or additional banks, financial institutions or other institutional lenders subject to compliance with, and as provided for in, clauses (b)(ii) and (d) below. Each such notice shall specify (i) the amount of the Incremental Term Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or such lesser amount equal to the remaining Incremental Amount), and (ii) the date (each, an “Increase Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the Incremental Term Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date on or prior to September 15, 2018 but not less than 10 Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent.

(b) The requested Incremental Term Commitments shall become effective as of the applicable Increase Effective Date; provided that:

(i) no Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Commitment unless it shall have separately agreed to do so, and the determination to provide such commitments shall be within the sole and absolute discretion of such Lender;

(ii) the creation or provision of any Incremental Term Commitment or Incremental Term Loan shall require the approval of each Initial Lender in its sole discretion (which approval shall be separate and distinct from such Lender’s discretionary right to agree to provide any portion of any Incremental Term Commitment and any such approval of the Borrower’s incurrence of any Incremental Term Commitment shall not, in and of itself, require or imply that such Lender agrees to provide any portion of such Incremental Term Commitment);

(iii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would exist after giving effect to such Incremental Term Commitments;

(iv) after giving effect to such Incremental Term Commitments, the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of materiality qualifiers set forth in such representations and warranties) on and as of the Increase Effective Date with the same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and as of such; provided that to the extent that a representation and warranty specifically refers to a given date or period, it shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date or period, as the case may be; and

(v) if requested by the Initial Lenders, the Lenders shall have received an opinion or opinions of counsel for the Loan Parties, dated the Increase Effective Date and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, in form and substance acceptable to the Initial Lenders.

(c) The terms and provisions of the Incremental Term Loans made pursuant to Incremental Term Commitments shall be as follows:

(i) except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Increase Joinder, identical to the Loans (it being understood that Incremental Term Loans may be a part of the Loans) except as to maturity and amortization (which shall be subject to the following clauses (ii) and (iii));

(ii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Incremental Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the then existing Loans; and

(iii) the maturity date of Incremental Term Loans (the “Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date”) shall not be earlier than the Maturity Date of the Loans then in effect.

(d) Incremental Term Commitments may be provided by any Lender or any other Person (such other Person, an “Additional Lender”); provided that, each Initial Lender (in its sole discretion) shall have consented to such Additional Lender’s providing such Incremental Term Commitments; provided, that (subject to Section 2.6(b)(ii)) the opportunity to commit to provide all or a portion of any Incremental Term Commitments shall be offered by the Borrower first to the Initial Lenders (to the extent they remain Lenders at such time) on a pro rata basis and, to the extent any of such existing Initial Lenders have not agreed or declined to provide any portion of such Incremental Term Commitments, after being provided a bona fide opportunity to do so, the other existing Lenders shall be provided an opportunity to provide all or any portion of such declined portion and to the extent any portion of the Incremental Term Commitments are not accepted by the then-existing Lenders, the Borrower may then offer such opportunity to Additional Lenders.

(e) The Incremental Term Commitments shall be effected by a joinder agreement (the “Increase Joinder”) executed by the Borrower, each other Loan Party, the Administrative Agent, each Initial Lender (in its sole discretion) and, if applicable, each Additional Lender providing all or any portion of such Incremental Term Commitments, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each of them; provided that, in the event the Administrative Agent shall not have received a fully executed Increase Joinder on or before the earlier of (x) the date that is 30 Business Days after the date on which the associated Incremental Request was delivered to Administrative Agent and (y) September 15, 2018, then such Incremental Request shall be deemed to have been revoked (unless otherwise agreed by the Initial Lenders in their sole discretion). In addition, unless otherwise specifically provided herein or the applicable Increase Joinder, all references in Loan Documents to the Loans shall be deemed, unless the context otherwise requires, to include references to Incremental Term Loans made pursuant to Incremental Term Commitments made pursuant to this Agreement.

(f) Unless otherwise agreed in the applicable Increase Joinder, on any Increase Effective Date on which new Commitments for Loans are effective, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, each Lender of such new Commitment shall make a Loan to the Borrower in an amount equal to its new Commitment.

(g) The Incremental Term Loans and Commitments established pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall constitute a part of the “Loan” and “Commitments” under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the Guaranty hereunder and the security interests created by the Collateral Documents. The Loan Parties shall take any actions reasonably required by the Lenders to ensure and/or demonstrate that the Guaranty made hereunder and the Lien and security interests granted hereby and by the other Collateral Documents continue to be valid and perfected under the UCC after giving effect to the establishment of any such class of Incremental Term Loans or any such new Commitments.

2.7 Repayment of the Loans.

The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding on the Maturity Date, or if earlier, the date of acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 8.2. Any repayment pursuant to this Section 2.7 following an acceleration shall be accompanied by the applicable Prepayment Fee.

2.8 Interest and Default Rate.

(a) Interest. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.8(b), (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate; and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. To the extent that any calculation of interest or any fee required to be paid under this Agreement shall be based on (or result in) a rate that is less than zero, such rate shall be deemed zero for purposes of this Agreement.

(b) Default Rate.

(i) If any amount of principal of the Loans is not paid when due (without regard to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(ii) If any amount (other than principal of the Loans) payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace periods), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, then upon the request of the Required Lenders such amount shall thereafter, until paid, bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(iii) Upon the request of the Required Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all other outstanding Obligations may bear interest, until paid, at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.

(c) Interest Payments. Interest on the Loans shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

2.9 Fees.

(a) [Reserved.]

(b) Administrative Agent Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in the Fee Letter or otherwise in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.

2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees.

All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365 day year). Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loans is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loans or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.11, bear interest for one (1) day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

2.11 Payments; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing Set-Offs Generally.

(a) Borrower Payments.

(i) All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein; provided that payments pursuant to Sections 3.1, 3.4, 3.5 and 10.4 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any Lender to such Lender promptly following receipt thereof. Except as otherwise specifically provided for in this Agreement, if any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.

(ii) Unless the Administrative Agent receives notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that Borrower will not make such payment in full as and when required, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made (or will make) such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date in immediately available funds and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower does not make such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on the date when due, each Lender severally shall repay to the Administrative Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid; provided that such interest shall be an obligation of the Borrower and shall be payable by the Borrower upon demand.

(b) Application of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied in accordance with Section 8.3.

(c) Sharing of Payments. If, at any time or times any Lender shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, setoff, or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Secured Obligations, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) payments from the Administrative Agent in excess of such Lender’s pro rata share of all such distributions by the Administrative Agent, such Lender promptly shall (A) turn the same over to the Administrative Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the Administrative Agent, or in immediately available funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Secured Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (B) purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Secured Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance with their pro rata shares; provided, that to the extent that such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment.

ARTICLE III
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

3.1 Taxes.

(a) For purposes of this Section 3.1, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Loan Parties under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes except as required by applicable law. If any such Taxes are imposed (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable Withholding Agent) on any payments made by a Withholding Agent (including payments under this paragraph), then such Withholding Agent will pay the Taxes and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield each of the Lenders would have received if such Taxes had not been imposed.

(b) The Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Loan Party by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of such Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, as provided in this Section 3.1, the Loan Party will deliver to the Administrative Agent, for distribution to the Lenders, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Each Loan Party will confirm that it has paid the Taxes required under this Section 3.1 by giving the Administrative Agent official tax receipts (or notarized copies) within thirty (30) days after the due date.

(e) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i) Prior to the date that any Lender that is not a “U.S. Person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Foreign Lender”) becomes a party hereto, such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Code (including IRS Forms W-8ECI, W-8BEN-E, or W-8IMY as applicable, or appropriate successor forms), properly completed, currently effective and duly executed by such Lender, along with any applicable attachments, to permit Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made, if any. Without limitation of the foregoing, in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, prior to the date that such Foreign Lender becomes a party hereto, a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code.

(ii) Any Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax.

(iii) Each Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iv) Each Lender shall promptly deliver further copies of such forms or other appropriate certifications if any such forms expire or become obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form delivered to Borrower or the Administrative Agent.

(v) Each Lender shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation required under FATCA (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

For purposes of this Section 3.1(e), a reference to a “Lender” shall include any participant to whom such Lender has sold a participation (it being understood that the documentation required under this Section 3.1(e) shall be delivered to the participating Lender). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the completion, execution and submission of the documentation described in Section 3.1(e)(iii) shall not be required if in a Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(f) If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.1 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.1), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to a Loan Party or any other Person.

(g) Each party’s obligation under this Section 3.1 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

3.2 Illegality.

If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its lending office to perform any of its obligations hereunder or to make, maintain or fund or charge interest with respect to the Loans of such Lender or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower, any obligation of such Lender to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to the Loans of such Lender or continue Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender, prepay or, if applicable, convert the Eurodollar Rate Loan of such Lender to a Base Rate Loan, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loan. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.3 Inability to Determine Rates.

(a) If in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Rate Loan or a continuation thereof, any Lender determines that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan, such Lender will promptly so notify the Borrower. Thereafter, the obligation of such Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods), in each case until such Lender revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

(b) If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) or (ii) have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in clause (a)(i) or (ii) have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of LIBOR or a Governmental Authority has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent, the Initial Lenders and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the Eurodollar Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.1, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b), the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, or continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.

3.4 Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.

In the event any permitted assignee of any Lender is a bank:

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

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, such Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.4(d));

(ii) subject any Recipient to any taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii) impose on such Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Lender; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining the Loans (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or other Recipient for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered, provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to so compensate any Lender for any such amounts incurred more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date such Lender notifies the Borrower in writing thereof and its intention to claim compensation.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or its lending office or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered, provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to so compensate any Lender for any such amounts incurred more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date such Lender notifies the Borrower in writing thereof and its intention to claim compensation.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of any Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans. The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender 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 Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least ten (10) days’ prior notice of such additional interest or costs from such Lender. If such Lender fails to give notice ten (10) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be due and payable ten (10) days from receipt of such notice.

(e) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.4 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

3.5 Compensation for Losses.

In the event any permitted assignee of any Lender is a bank:

Upon demand of such Lender from time to time, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any payment or prepayment of the Loans to the extent it is a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for the Loans (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);

(b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Loan other than a Base Rate Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower;

including any loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.

For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to any Lender under this Section 3.5, such Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

3.6 Survival.

All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

ARTICLE IV
CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO BORROWING

4.1 Conditions Precedent to Closing Date. The obligation of the Initial Lenders to make the Loans hereunder on the Closing Date is subject to satisfaction or waiver by all the Initial Lenders of the following conditions precedent; provided that any matters addressed in Section 6.17 shall not be deemed closing conditions hereunder:

(a) Execution of Credit Agreement; Loan Documents. The Initial Lenders shall have received (i) counterparts of this Agreement, executed by the Administrative Agent, each Initial Lender and a Responsible Officer of each Loan Party, (ii) counterparts of the U.S. Security Agreement, and each other Collateral Document, executed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Loan Parties and a duly authorized officer of each other Person party thereto, as applicable and (iii) counterparts of any other Loan Document, executed by a Responsible Officer of the applicable Loan Party and a duly authorized officer of each other Person party thereto.

CONTINUING GUARANTY

9.1

Each Guarantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally, jointly and severally, guarantees, as primary obligor and as a guaranty of payment and performance and not merely as a guaranty of collection, prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, upon acceleration, demand or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of any and all of the Secured Obligations, whether for principal, interest, premiums, fees, indemnities, damages, costs, expenses or otherwise, of the Borrower to the Secured Parties, arising hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including all renewals, extensions, amendments, refinancings and other modifications thereof and all costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Secured Parties in connection with the collection or enforcement thereof to the extent not the result of any dispute among the parties hereto in which the Loan Parties are the prevailing party) (for each Guarantor, subject to the proviso in this sentence, its “Guaranteed Obligations”); provided that the liability of each Guarantor individually with respect to this Guaranty shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of the United States or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law or other applicable Law. The Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ books and records showing the amount of the Secured Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, and shall be binding upon each Guarantor, and conclusive, absent manifest error, for the purpose of establishing the amount of the Secured Obligations. This Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Secured Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Secured Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, non-perfection or extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Secured Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of the Guarantors, or any of them, under this Guaranty, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to any or all of the foregoing.

9.2

Rights of Lenders.

Each Guarantor consents and agrees that the Secured Parties may, at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof: (a) amend, extend, renew, compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof; (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for the payment of this Guaranty or any Secured Obligations; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Lenders in their sole discretion may determine; and (d) release or substitute one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the Secured Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of such Guarantor under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of such Guarantor.

9.3

Certain Waivers.

Each Guarantor waives (a) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrower or any other guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including any act or omission of any Secured Party) of the liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party; (b) any defense based on any claim that such Guarantor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the Borrower or any other Loan Party; (c) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting any Guarantor’s liability hereunder; (d) any right to proceed against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, proceed against or exhaust any security for the Secured Obligations, or pursue any other remedy in the power of any Secured Party whatsoever; (e) any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by any Secured Party; and (f) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by applicable Law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties. Each Guarantor expressly waives all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Secured Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or additional Secured Obligations.

9.4

Obligations Independent.

The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety, and are independent of the Secured Obligations and the obligations of any other guarantor, and a separate action may be brought against each Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty whether or not the Borrower or any other person or entity is joined as a party.

9.5

Subrogation.

No Guarantor shall exercise any right of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty until all of the Secured Obligations and any amounts payable under this Guaranty have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full and the Facility is terminated. If any amounts are paid to a Guarantor in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Secured Parties to reduce the amount of the Secured Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

9.6

Termination; Reinstatement.

This Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Secured Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until the Facility Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or a Guarantor is made, or any of the Secured Parties exercises its right of setoff, if any, in respect of the Secured Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by any of the Secured Parties in their discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and whether or not the Secured Parties are in possession of or have released this Guaranty and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction.

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, each Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligations to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

10.7

Confidentiality.

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its Affiliates, its auditors and to its Related Parties on a “need to know” basis (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), (ii) 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) (in which case such parties agree, to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, to inform the Borrower promptly thereof prior to disclosure), (iii) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process (in which case such parties agree, to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, to inform the Borrower promptly thereof prior to disclosure), (iv) to any other party to this Agreement, (v) 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, (vi) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, (vii) on a confidential basis to any rating agency in connection with rating any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder, (viii) with the written consent of the Borrower or to the extent such Information (1) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (2) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender 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 any Loan Party or any Subsidiary relating to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary.

10.8

Right of Setoff.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held (in whatever currency) against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the Lender. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.9

Interest Rate Limitation.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, the Administrative Agent or such Lender may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

10.10

Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Fee Letter, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Agents or the Lenders, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Article IV, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each Initial Lender and when the Initial Lenders shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any certificate delivered thereunder, by fax transmission or e- mail transmission (e.g. “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement or such other Loan Document or certificate. Without limiting the foregoing, to the extent a manually executed counterpart is not specifically required to be delivered under the terms of any Loan Document, upon the request of any party, such fax transmission or e-mail transmission shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.

10.11

Survival of Representations and Warranties.

All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof.

10.12

Severability.

If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

ARTICLE XI
the agents

11.1

Appointment; Powers.

Each of the Lenders hereby appoints Cantor Xxxxxxxxxx Securities as its Administrative Agent and its Collateral Agent. Each Lender authorizes the Agents to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents.

11.2

Duties and Obligations of the Agents.

The Agents shall have no duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing (the use of the term “Administrative Agent”, “Collateral Agent” or “Agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law; rather, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties), (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except as provided in Section 11.3, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein, no Agent shall have a duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Agents shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to a responsible officer of such Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into:

(a) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document,

(b) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection herewith or therewith,

(c) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or in any other Loan Document,

(d) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document,

(e) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent or as to those conditions precedent expressly required to be to such Agent’s satisfaction,

(f) the existence, value, perfection or priority of any collateral security or the financial or other condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, or

(g) any failure by the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person (other than itself) to perform any of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document or the performance or observance of any covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein.

11.3

Action by Agents.

Each Agent shall have no duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.1) and in all cases each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder or under any other Loan Documents unless it shall (a) receive written instructions from the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.1) specifying the action to be taken and (b) be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability claims, losses, fees and expenses which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The instructions as aforesaid and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto by an Agent shall be binding on all of the Lenders. If a Default has occurred and is continuing, then an Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the requisite Lenders in the written instructions (with indemnities satisfactory to it) described in this Section 11.3; provided that, unless and until such Agent shall have received such directions, such Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the interests of the Lenders. In no event, however, shall an Agent be required to take any action which exposes such Agent to a risk of personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement, the Loan Documents or applicable law. If a Default has occurred and is continuing, no Agent shall have any obligation to perform any act in respect thereof. Each Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.1), and otherwise such Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith including its own ordinary negligence, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

11.4

Reliance by Agents.

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct by such Agent and each of the Loan Parties and the Lenders hereby waives the right to dispute such Agent’s record of such statement absent manifest error. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

11.5

Sub-Agents.

Each Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers 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 its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article XI and Section 10.4 shall apply to any such sub-Agent and to the Related Parties of such Agent and any such sub-Agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as such Agent. Each Agent shall have no responsibility for the conduct or negligence of any sub-agent appointed by it hereunder, except to the extent that such Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the appointment of such sub-agent.

11.6

Resignation or Removal of Agents.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided in this Section 11.6, each Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower, and such Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation or removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and at the expense of the Borrower, appoint a successor Agent, or an Affiliate of any such Lender as approved by the Required Lenders or if no such successor shall be appointed by the retiring Agent as aforesaid, the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all of the duties of the retiring Agent hereunder (and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder) until such appointment by the Required Lenders is made and accepted. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. 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 an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article XI and Section 10.4 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 it was acting as Agent.

11.7

Agents as Lenders.

Each Lender serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates as if it were not an Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

11.8

Funds Held by Agents.

The Agents shall have no responsibility for interest or income on any funds held by it hereunder.

11.9

No Reliance.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and each other Loan Document to which it is a party. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. No Agent shall be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of this Agreement, the Loan Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or to inspect the property or books of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by an Agent hereunder, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Borrower (or any of their Affiliates) which may come into the possession of such Agent or any of its Affiliates. Each party hereto will consult with its own legal counsel to the extent that it deems necessary in connection with the Loan Documents and the matters contemplated therein.

11.10

Agents May File Proofs of Claim.

In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Guarantors or any of their Subsidiaries, each Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether an Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower or the Guarantors) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file a proof-of-claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Indebtedness that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary and directed by the Required Lenders in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Agents and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Agents under Section 10.4) allowed in such judicial proceeding;

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

(c) any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized and directed by each Lender to make such payments to the Agents and, in the event that the Agents shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Agents 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 Section 10.4.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize any Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Indebtedness or the rights of any Lender or to authorize any Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

11.11

Authority of the Agents to Release Collateral and Liens.

(a) Each Lender hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to release any Collateral or any Guarantor that is permitted to be sold or released pursuant to the terms of this Section 11.11 and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver to the Borrower, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, any and all releases of Guarantors, releases of Liens, termination statements, assignments or other documents reasonably requested by the Borrower in connection with (x) the termination of the Facility on the Facility Termination Date, (y) any Subsidiary becoming an Excluded Subsidiary or (z) any sale or other Disposition of property to the extent such sale or other Disposition is authorized by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and complies with the Collateral Documents, as evidenced in an certificate delivered by a Responsible Officer to the Collateral Agent (which shall be promptly distributed to the Lenders); provided that, prior to the Facility Termination Date, the Liens on any Collateral securing the Secured Obligations shall not be released upon a sale, transfer or other Disposition of such Collateral to any Person that is, or that is required to be, in each case at the time of such sale, transfer or other Disposition, and after giving effect thereto, a Loan Party (but in each case disregarding the grace period provided for in Section 6.12). Upon the request of the Borrower, in connection with any transaction otherwise permitted by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent is authorized to release Collateral that is Disposed of to any Person (other than to a Person that is, or that is required to be, in each case at the time of such Disposition, and after giving effect thereto, a Loan Party (but in each case disregarding the grace period provided for in Section 6.12)), or to any Person that ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower at the time of such Disposition, and after giving effect thereto.

(b) In respect of Qualifying Control Agreements over deposit accounts or securities accounts that constitute ABL Priority Collateral, each Lender hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent to execute and deliver to the Borrower, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, terminations with respect to such Qualifying Control Agreements upon effectiveness of the ABL Facility.

11.12

Merger, Conversion or Consolidation of Agents.

Any corporation into which the Agents may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Agents shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate trust and loan agency business of the Agents, shall be the successor of the Agents hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

11.13

ABL Intercreditor Agreement.

EACH LENDER AND EACH OTHER SECURED PARTY HEREUNDER (a) AGREES THAT IT WILL BE BOUND BY AND WILL TAKE NO ACTIONS CONTRARY TO THE PROVISIONS OF ANY ABL INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT ENTERED INTO BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND COLLATERAL AGENT, (b) AUTHORIZES AND INSTRUCTS THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND COLLATERAL AGENT TO ENTER INTO ANY ABL INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT AS “FIRST LIEN AGENT” (OR EQUIVALENT) AND ON BEHALF OF SUCH LENDER OR SECURED PARTY AND (c) AGREES THAT IT WILL BE BOUND BY AND WILL TAKE NO ACTIONS CONTRARY TO THE PROVISIONS OF ANY ABL INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT TO THE EXTENT THEN IN EFFECT. THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 11.13 ARE NOT INTENDED TO SUMMARIZE ALL RELEVANT PROVISIONS OF ANY ABL INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT. REFERENCE MUST BE MADE TO ANY ABL INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT ITSELF TO UNDERSTAND ALL TERMS AND CONDITIONS THEREOF. EACH LENDER AND EACH SECURED PARTY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING ITS OWN ANALYSIS AND REVIEW OF ANY ABL INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT AND THE TERMS AND PROVISIONS THEREOF, AND NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION TO ANY LENDER OR ANY SECURED PARTY AS TO THE SUFFICIENCY OR ADVISABILITY OF THE PROVISIONS CONTAINED IN ANY ABL INTERCREDITOR AGREEMENT.
