the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable
Eurodollar Rate Loans. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or
continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans in any Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest
Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Swing Line Loan may not be converted to
a Eurodollar Rate Loan.
(b) Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
each Lender of the amount of its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Loans, and if no
timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to
Base Rate Loans as described in the preceding subsection. In the case of a Borrowing, each
Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in
immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 3:00 p.m.
on the Business Day specified in the applicable Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the
applicable conditions set forth in Section 5.03 (or, if such Borrowing is the initial
Credit Extension, Sections 5.01 and 5.02), the Administrative Agent shall
make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the
Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of
Bank of America with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each
case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the
Administrative Agent by
the Borrower; provided, however, that if, on the date the Loan Notice
with respect to a Borrowing of Revolving Loans is given by the Borrower, there are L/C
Borrowings outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing, first, shall be applied to the
payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings and second, shall be made available to
the Borrower as provided above.
(c) During the existence of a Default, the Required Lenders may demand that any or all
of the then outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans be converted immediately to Base Rate Loans.
(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the
interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans upon
determination of such interest rate. At any time that Base Rate Loans are outstanding, the
Administrative Agent shall notify the
33
Borrower and the Lenders of any change in the Prime Rate used in determining the Base Rate promptly
following the public announcement of such change.
(e) After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to
the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than
ten (10) Interest Periods in effect.
2.03 Letters of Credit.
(a) The Letter of Credit Commitment.
(i) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) the L/C Issuer
agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Lenders set forth in this
Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period
from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters
of Credit in Dollars for the account of the Parent or any Subsidiary, and to amend
or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsection
(b) below, and (2) to honor drawings under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the
Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account
of the Parent or any Subsidiary and any drawings thereunder; provided that
after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of
Credit, (x) the Total Revolving Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate
Revolving Commitments, (y) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans
of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding
Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of
the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s
Revolving Commitment and (z) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations shall
not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit. Each request by the Borrower for the
issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation
by the Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so requested complies with the
conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the
foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s
ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the
Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace
Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed.
(ii) The L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit if:
(A) subject to Section 2.03(b)(iii), the expiry date of such
requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the
date of issuance or last extension, unless the Required Revolving Lenders
have approved such expiry date; or
(B) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur
after the Maturity Date, unless all the Lenders that have Revolving
Commitments have approved such expiry date.
(iii) The L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of
Credit if:
(A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or
arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the L/C Issuer
from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the L/C
Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of
law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer
shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance
of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or
shall
34
impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction,
reserve or capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer is not otherwise
compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the
L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the
Closing Date and which the L/C Issuer in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it;
(B) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more
policies of the L/C Issuer applicable to letters of credit generally;
(C) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the
L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial stated amount less than
$100,000;
(D) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other
than Dollars;
(E) any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the L/C
Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash
Collateral, satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion) with
the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s
actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section
2.15(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the
Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and
all other L/C Obligations as to which the L/C Issuer has actual or
potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion; or
(F) such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic
reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder.
(iv) The L/C Issuer shall not amend any Letter of Credit if the L/C Issuer
would not be permitted at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended
form under the terms hereof.
(v) The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit
if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter
of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of
such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of
Credit.
(vi) The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any
Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the L/C
Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the
Administrative Agent in Article X with respect to any acts taken or omissions
suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or
proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to
such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used
in Article X included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and
(B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer.
(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension
Letters of Credit.
(i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be,
upon the request of the Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately
completed and signed by a Responsible
35
Officer of the Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and
the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. at least two (2) Business Days (or such later
date and time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in
their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may
be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit
Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed
issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount
thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the
documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text
of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (G) the
purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit; and (H) such other matters as the L/C Issuer
may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such
Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A)
the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a
Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the L/C
Issuer may require. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the
Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of
Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the
Administrative Agent may require.
(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer will
confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative
Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrower and, if
not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the
L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any
Loan Party, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment
of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in
Article V shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions
hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the
account of the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary or enter into the applicable
amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and
customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each
Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase
from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the
product of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of
Credit.
(iii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the
L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has
automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”);
provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer
to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with
the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary
thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such
twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless
otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific
request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit
has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to
have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such
Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Maturity Date;
provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension
if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no
obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended)
under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of clause (ii) or (iii) of Section
2.03(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in
writing) on or before the day that is
36
seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the
Required Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent,
any Lender or any Loan Party that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section
5.03 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such
extension.
(iv) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the
L/C Issuer may, in its sole discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that permits the
automatic reinstatement of all or a portion of the stated amount thereof after any drawing
thereunder (each, an “Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit”). Unless otherwise
directed by the L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request
to the L/C Issuer to permit such reinstatement. Once an Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit
has been issued, except as provided in the following sentence, the Lenders shall be deemed
to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to reinstate all or a portion of
the stated amount thereof in accordance with the provisions of such Letter of Credit.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such Auto-Reinstatement Letter of Credit permits the L/C
Issuer to decline to reinstate all or any portion of the stated amount thereof after a
drawing thereunder by giving notice of such non-reinstatement within a specified number of
days after such drawing (the “Non-Reinstatement Deadline”), the L/C Issuer shall
not permit such reinstatement if it has received a notice (which may be by telephone or in
writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Reinstatement
Deadline (A) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Lenders have elected not to
permit such reinstatement or (B) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Loan
Party that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 5.03 is
not then satisfied (treating such reinstatement as an L/C Credit Extension for purposes of
this clause) and, in each case, directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such reinstatement.
(v) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter
of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C
Issuer will also deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete
copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.
(c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.
(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of drawing
under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by the
L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall
reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount
of such drawing. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the
unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage thereof. In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have
requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount
equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in
Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the
unutilized portion of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and the conditions set forth
in Section 5.03 (other than the delivery of a Loan Notice). Any notice given by the
L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be
given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of
such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of
such notice.
37
(ii) Each Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make
funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this
purpose) for the account of the L/C Issuer at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an
amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 3:00
p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon,
subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Lender that so makes funds
available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan that is a Base Rate Loan to the
Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the
L/C Issuer.
(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a
Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 5.03
cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred
from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not
so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with
interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Lender’s payment
to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section
2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C
Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Lender in satisfaction of its
participation obligation under this Section 2.03.
(iv) Until each Lender funds its Revolving Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this
Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter
of Credit, interest in respect of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such amount shall
be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.
(v) Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the
L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section
2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right
which such Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, the Parent, any Subsidiary or any other
Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or 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 Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans
pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in
Section 5.03 (other than delivery by the Borrower of a Loan Notice). No such making
of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to
reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any
Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.
(vi) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account
of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section
2.03(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the L/C
Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative
Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such
payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C
Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate
determined by the L/C Issuer in accordance with
banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing
or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If
such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid
shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or L/C
Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the
L/C Issuer submitted to any Lender (through the
38
Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be
conclusive absent demonstrable error.
(d) Repayment of Participations.
(i) At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of
Credit and has received from any Lender such Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of
such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative
Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the
related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the
Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by
the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Lender
its Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the
Administrative Agent.
(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of
the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned
under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including
pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each
Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its
Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest
thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such
Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in
effect. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment
in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the L/C
Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall
be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this
Agreement or any other Loan Document;
(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right
that the Parent or any Subsidiary may have at any time against any beneficiary or
any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such
beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other
Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated
hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating
thereto, or any unrelated transaction;
(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such
Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any
respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any
respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any
document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;
(iv) any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against
presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the
terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such
Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy,
debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver
or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of
such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding
under any Debtor Relief Law; or
39
(v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to
any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise
constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Parent or any
Subsidiary.
The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that
is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions
or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. The Borrower shall be
conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents
unless such notice is given as aforesaid.
(f) Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any
drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to
obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly
required by such Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or
accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any
such document. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective
Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be
liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the
request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii)
any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or
(iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or
instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. The Borrower hereby assumes
all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use
of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not
intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as
it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None
of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor
any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible
for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e);
provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer
may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as
opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower
proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C
Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by
the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and
conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing,
the L/C Issuer 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, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of
any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of
Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which
may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.
(g) Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer
and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, the rules of the ISP shall apply to
each Letter of Credit.
(h) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent
for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage a Letter of
Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the
Applicable Rate for Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans times the daily
amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided, however, any Letter of
Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any
Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral
satisfactory to the L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be payable, to
the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, to the other Lenders in accordance with the
upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentages allocable to such Letter of
Credit pursuant to Section 2.15(a)(iv), with
40
the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the L/C Issuer for its own account. For purposes of
computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such
Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.06. Letter of Credit Fees shall
be (i) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and
December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit
and on the Maturity Date; and (ii) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. If there is any change
in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter
of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during
such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, upon the request of the Required Lenders (or automatically upon the imposition of
the Default Rate pursuant to Section 2.08), while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit
Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.
(i) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer.
The Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee with
respect to each Letter of Credit, at the rate per annum specified in the Fee Letter,
computed on the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on a
quarterly basis in arrears. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable on the tenth
Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December in respect of the
most recently-ended quarterly period (or portion thereof, in the case of the first
payment), commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of
Credit and on the Maturity Date. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be
drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined
in accordance with Section 1.06. In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to
the L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and
other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to
letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs
and charges are due and payable on demand and are nonrefundable.
(j) Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the
terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.
(k) Letters of Credit Issued for the Parent and its Subsidiaries.
Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of
any obligations of, or is for the account of, the Parent or a Subsidiary, the Borrower
shall be obligated to reimburse the L/C Issuer hereunder for any and all drawings under
such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of
Credit for the account of the Parent and the Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the
Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses
of the Parent and the Subsidiaries.
2.04 Swing Line Loans.
(a) Swing Line Facility. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein,
the Swing Line Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in
this Section 2.04, may in its sole discretion make loans (each such loan, a
“Swing Line Loan”) to the Borrower in Dollars from time to time on any Business Day
during the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time
outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing
Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of
Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed
the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment; provided, however, that
after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total Revolving Outstandings shall not
exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of
the Revolving Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the
Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Applicable Percentage
of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving
Commitment,
41
and provided further, that the Borrower shall not use the proceeds of any Swing
Line Loan to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to
the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.04,
prepay under Section 2.05, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each Swing Line
Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Lender shall
be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line
Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.
(b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Borrowing of Swing Line Loans shall be made
upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative
Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line
Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing
date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum principal
amount of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day.
Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender
and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed
and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Swing
Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm
with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent
has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will
notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof.
Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the
Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the
date of the proposed Borrowing of Swing Line Loans (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not
to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso
to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable
conditions specified in Article V is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms
and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the
borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line
Loan available to the Borrower.
(c) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans.
(i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole discretion may request, on
behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender
to so request on its behalf), that each Lender make a Base Rate Loan in an amount
equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans
then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request
shall be deemed to be a Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with
the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and
multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but
subject to the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and the
conditions set forth in Section 5.03 (other than the delivery of a Loan
Notice). The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the
applicable Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative
Agent. Each
Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the amount
specified in such Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in immediately
available funds (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral available
with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan) for the account of the Swing Line
Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 3:00 p.m. on the day
specified in such Loan Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii),
each Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Revolving
Loan that is a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Administrative
Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.
42
(ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Borrowing of
Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate
Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a
request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Lenders fund its risk participation in
the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed
payment in respect of such participation.
(iii) If any Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to
the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in
Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such
Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest
thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such
payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the
greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in
accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative,
processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in connection with
the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the
amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the relevant
Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A
certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative
Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent
demonstrable error.
(iv) Each Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or to purchase and fund risk
participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any
setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender may have against
the Swing Line Lender, the Parent, any Subsidiary or any other Person for any reason
whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or 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 Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this
Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.03. No
such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the
Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.
(d) Repayment of Participations.
(i) At any time after any Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a
Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing
Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Lender its Applicable Percentage
thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.
(ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or
interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line
Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including
pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each
Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of
the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date
such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The
Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The
obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the
Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
43
(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be
responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each
Lender funds its Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans or risk participation pursuant to
this Section 2.04 to refinance such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Swing
Line Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the
account of the Swing Line Lender.
(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrower shall make all
payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing
Line Lender.
(g) Auto Borrow Arrangement. In order to facilitate the borrowing of Swing
Line Loans, the Borrower and the Swing Line Lender may mutually agree to, and are hereby
authorized to, enter into an auto borrow agreement in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Swing Line Lender, with notice to the Administrative Agent (the
“Auto Borrow Agreement”) providing for the automatic advance by the Swing Line
Lender of Swing Line Loans under the conditions set forth in the Auto Borrow Agreement,
subject to the conditions set forth herein. At any time an Auto Borrow Agreement is in
effect, Borrowings of Swing Line Loans under the Auto Borrow Agreement shall be made in
accordance with the terms of the Auto Borrow Agreement. For purposes of determining the
Total Revolving Outstandings at any time during which an Auto Borrow Agreement is in
effect, the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans shall be deemed to be the sum of the
Outstanding Amount of Swing Line Loans at such time plus the maximum amount available to be
borrowed under such Auto Borrow Agreement at such time.
2.05 Prepayments.
(a) Voluntary Prepayments of Loans.
(i) Revolving Loans and Term Loan. The Borrower may, upon notice from
the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time
voluntarily prepay Revolving Loans and the Term Loan in whole or in part without
premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by the
Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (1) three Business Days prior to
any date of prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans and (2) on the date of prepayment
of Base Rate Loans; (B) any such prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be in a
principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof
(or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding); (C) any
prepayment of Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a
whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if less, the entire principal
amount thereof then outstanding); and (D) any prepayment of the Term Loan, unless
otherwise directed by the Borrower, shall be applied to the remaining principal
amortization payments in direct order of maturity. Each such notice shall specify
the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and,
if Eurodollar Rate Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans.
The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each
such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the
Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified
in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Any
prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest
on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to
Section 3.05. Subject to Section 2.15, each such prepayment shall be applied to
the Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable
Percentages.
(ii) Swing Line Loans. The Borrower may, upon notice to the Swing
Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to
time, voluntarily prepay
44
Swing Line Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must
be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the
date of the prepayment, and (ii) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of
$100,000 (or, if less, the entire principal thereof then outstanding). Each such notice shall
specify the date and amount of such prepayment. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the
Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due
and payable on the date specified therein.
(b) Mandatory Prepayments of Loans.
(i) Revolving Commitments. If for any reason the Total Revolving Outstandings
at any time exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall
immediately prepay Revolving Loans and/or Swing Line Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the
L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to such excess; provided,
however, that the Borrower shall not be required to Cash Collateralize the L/C
Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(i) unless after the prepayment in full
of the Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans the Total Revolving Outstandings exceed the
Aggregate Revolving Commitments then in effect.
(ii) Dispositions and Recovery Events. The Borrower shall prepay the Loans
and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations as hereafter provided in an aggregate amount
equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Dispositions or Recovery Event to the extent
such Net Cash Proceeds are not reinvested in property that is useful in the business of the
Parent and its Subsidiaries within 180 days (or 360 days provided such Net Cash Proceeds
are committed to be reinvested pursuant to a binding contract within 180 days) of such
Disposition or Recovery Event (it being understood that, in each case, such prepayment
shall be due immediately upon the expiration of such reinvestment period to the extent not
reinvested).
(iii) Extraordinary Receipts. Within one Business Day of receipt by the Parent
or any Subsidiary of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Extraordinary Receipts, the Borrower
shall prepay the Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations as hereafter provided
in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds.
(iv) Consolidated Excess Cash Flow. Within one hundred ten days after the end
of each fiscal year of the Parent, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31,
2011, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans and/or Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations as
hereafter provided in an aggregate amount equal to the sum of (A) 50% (if the Consolidated
Leverage Ratio as of the end of such fiscal year is equal to or greater than 2.5:1.0), 25%
(if the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the end of such fiscal year is less than 2.5:1.0
but equal to or greater than 2.0:1.0) and 0% (if the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as of the
end of such fiscal year is less than 2.0:1.0) of Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for such
fiscal year (or, in the case of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011, for the period
from the Closing Date through December 31, 2011) minus (B) the aggregate amount of optional
prepayments of the Term Loan pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(i) and the aggregate
amount of optional prepayments of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(i)
(to the extent accompanied by an optional permant reduction in the Aggregate Revolving
Commitments) in each case
during such fiscal year (or, in the case of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011,
for the period from the Closing Date through December 31, 2011).
(v) Debt Issuances. Immediately upon receipt by the Parent or any Subsidiary
of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Debt Issuance, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans and/or
Cash
45
Collateralize the L/C Obligations as hereafter provided in an aggregate amount equal to
100% of such Net Cash Proceeds.
(vi) Equity Issuances. Immediately upon the receipt by the Parent or
any Subsidiary of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Equity Issuance (other than an
Excluded Equity Issuance), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans and/or Cash
Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to 50% of such Net
Cash Proceeds.
(vii) Application of Mandatory Prepayments. All amounts required to
be paid pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied as follows:
(A) with respect to all amounts prepaid pursuant to Section
2.05(b)(i), first, ratably to the L/C Borrowings and the Swing
Line Loans, second, to the outstanding Revolving Loans, and,
third, to Cash Collateralize the remaining L/C Obligations; and
(B) with respect to all amounts prepaid pursuant to Sections
2.05(b)(ii), (iii), (iv), (v) and
(vi), first to the Term Loan (ratably to the remaining
principal amortization payments), second, ratably to the L/C
Borrowings and the Swing Line Loans, third, to the outstanding Revolving
Loans, and, fourth, to Cash Collateralize the remaining L/C
Obligations.
Within the parameters of the applications set forth above, prepayments shall be
applied first to Base Rate Loans and then to Eurodollar Rate Loans in direct order
of Interest Period maturities. All prepayments under this Section 2.05(b)
shall be subject to Section 3.05, but otherwise without premium or
penalty, and shall be accompanied by interest on the principal amount prepaid
through the date of prepayment.
(viii) Eurodollar Prepayment Account. If the Borrower is required to
make a mandatory prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans under this Section
2.05(b) (other than Section 2.05(b)(i)) so long as no Event of Default
exists, the Borrower shall have the right, in lieu of making such prepayment in
full, to deposit an amount equal to such mandatory prepayment with the
Administrative Agent in a cash collateral account maintained (pursuant to
documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) by and in the
sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent. Any amounts so deposited
shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the prepayment of such
Eurodollar Rate Loans and shall be applied to the prepayment of the applicable
Eurodollar Rate Loans at the end of the current Interest Periods applicable
thereto or, sooner, at the election of the Administrative Agent, upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default. At the request of the Borrower, amounts so
deposited shall be invested by the Administrative Agent in Cash Equivalents
maturing on or prior to the date or dates on which it is anticipated that such
amounts will be applied to prepay such Eurodollar Rate Loans; any interest earned
on such Cash Equivalents will be for the account of the Borrower and the Borrower
will deposit with
the Administrative Agent the amount of any loss on any such Cash Equivalents
to the extent necessary in order that the amount of the prepayment to be made with
the deposited amounts may not be reduced.
2.06 Optional Termination or Reduction of Aggregate Revolving Commitments.
The Borrower may, upon notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the Aggregate
Revolving Commitments, or from time to time permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving
Commitments to an amount not less than the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans, Swing
Line Loans and L/C Obligations; provided that (a) any such notice shall be received
by the Administrative Agent not later than
46
11:00 a.m. five Business Days prior to the date of termination or reduction, (b) any such partial
reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $5 million or any whole multiple of $1 million in
excess thereof and (c) if, after giving effect to any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving
Commitments, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit exceeds the amount of the
Aggregate Revolving Commitments, such sublimit shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such
excess. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders of any such notice of termination
or reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments. Any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving
Commitments shall be applied to the Revolving Commitment of each Lender according to its Applicable
Percentage. All fees accrued with respect thereto until the effective date of any termination of
the Aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.
2.07 Repayment of Loans.
(a) Revolving Loans. The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on the Maturity
Date the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans outstanding on such date.
(b) Swing Line Loans. The Borrower shall repay each Swing Line Loan on the
earlier to occur of (i) the date ten Business Days after such Swing Line Loan is made and
(ii) the Maturity Date.
(c) Term Loan. The Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal amount of
the Term Loan in installments on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the table below
(as such installments may hereafter be adjusted as a result of prepayments made pursuant to
Section 2.05), unless accelerated sooner pursuant to Section 9.02:

2.08 Interest.
(a) Subject to the provisions of subsection (b) below, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Loan
shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at
a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period plus the
Applicable Rate; (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; and (iii) each Swing Line 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.
(b) (i) If any amount of principal of any Loan 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 any Loan) payable by the Borrower
under any Loan Document is not paid when due (without regard 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 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, the Borrower shall pay interest on the principal amount of all outstanding
Obligations hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal
to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws.
(iv) Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on
past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.
(c) Interest on each Loan 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.
2.09 Fees.
In addition to certain fees described in subsections (h) and (i) of Section 2.03:
(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative
Agent, for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Applicable
Percentage, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) equal to the product
of (i) the Applicable Rate times (ii) the actual daily amount by which the
Aggregate Revolving Commitments exceed the sum of (A) the Outstanding Amount of
Revolving Loans and (B) the Outstanding Amount of L/C
Obligations, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.15. The
Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including
at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article V is not
met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of
each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to
occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Availability Period. The
Commitment Fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any
change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be
computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during
such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. For
48
purposes of clarification, Swing Line Loans shall not be considered outstanding for
purposes of determining the unused portion of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments.
(b) Fee Letter. The Borrower shall pay to the Arranger and the
Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at
the times specified in the Fee Letter. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid
and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.
2.10 Computation of Interest and Fees; Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Rate.
(a) All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans
determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate) 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 Loan is
made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan
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 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each
determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error.
(b) If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial
statements of the Parent or for any other reason, the Borrower or the Lenders determine
that (i) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrower as of any applicable
date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would
have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrower shall immediately and
retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the
applicable Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, promptly on demand by the
Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for
relief with respect to the Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States,
automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C
Issuer), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have
been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such
period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender
or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under this Agreement. The Borrower’s obligations
under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments
and the repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.
2.11 Evidence of Debt.
(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more
accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the
ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent
and each Lender shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error of the amount of the Credit
Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the
interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall
not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any
amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the
accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the
Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the
Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of demonstrable error. Upon the request
of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver
to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a promissory note, which shall evidence
such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each such promissory note
shall be in the form
49
of Exhibit 2.11 (a “Note”). Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and
endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with
respect thereto.
(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender
and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts
or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters
of Credit and Swing Line Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and
records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender
in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall
control in the absence of demonstrable error.
2.12 Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.
(a) General. All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made 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, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such
payment is owed, 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. The Administrative
Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Applicable Percentage (or other
applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire
transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. 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. 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.
(b) (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of
any Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate
Loans, prior to 12:00 noon on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make
available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the
Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date
in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans,
that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required
by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the
Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share
of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable
Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on
demand such corresponding amount in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for
each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but
excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment
to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by
the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank
compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged
by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a
payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If the
Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same
or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the
amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share
of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall
constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall
be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have
failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
50
(ii) Payments by Borrower; Presumptions by Administrative Agent.
Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior
to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the
account of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer hereunder that the Borrower will not make
such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such
payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such
assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the
amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then
each of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to
repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to
such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in immediately available funds with interest
thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it
to but excluding the date of payment 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 rules on interbank compensation.
A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with
respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent
demonstrable error.
(c) Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to
the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the
foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to
the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit
Extension set forth in Article V are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the
terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received
from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.
(d) Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder
to make Loans, to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and to make
payments pursuant to Section 11.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any
Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under
Section 11.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender
of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible
for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or
to make its payment under Section 11.04(c).
(e) Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to
obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a
representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in
any particular place or manner.
2.13 Sharing of Payments by Lenders.
If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise,
obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it,
or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swing Line Loans
held by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the
aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than
its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving
such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b)
purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and subparticipations in L/C
Obligations and Swing Line Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as
shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders
ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on
their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:
(i) if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or
any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations
or subparticipations
51
shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without
interest; and
(ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A)
any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance
with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds
arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (B) the application of Cash
Collateral provided for in Section 2.14 or (C) any payment obtained by a Lender as
consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans
or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swing Line Loans to any assignee or
participant, other than an assignment to the Parent or any Subsidiary (as to which
the provisions of this Section shall apply).
Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively
do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the
foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Loan Party rights of setoff and
counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct
creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation.
2.14 Cash Collateral.
(a) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Administrative
Agent or the L/C Issuer (i) if the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing
request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or
(ii) if, as of the Maturity Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding,
the Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding
Amount of all L/C Obligations. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender,
immediately upon the request of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line
Lender, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount
sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section
2.15(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).
(b) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support
not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest
bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by
any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the
Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender), and agrees to maintain, a first priority
security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all
other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the
foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied
pursuant to Section 2.14(c). 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 as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral
is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the
Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender 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.
(c) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.14 or Sections
2.03, 2.04, 2.05, 2.15 or 9.02 in respect of Letters of
Credit or Swing Line Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific
L/C Obligations, Swing Line Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including,
as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such
obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to
any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.
52
(d) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to
reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the
elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto
(including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as
appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 11.06(b)(vi))) or (ii)
the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash
Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan
Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default (and following application
as provided in this Section 2.14 may be otherwise applied in accordance with
Section 9.03), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer or
Swing Line Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but
instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.
2.15 Defaulting Lenders.
(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender
is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:
(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve
or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement
shall be restricted as set forth in Section 11.01.
(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest,
fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that
Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to
Article IX or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the
Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.08),
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 that Defaulting
Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata
basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuer or Swing
Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or
requested by the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral
for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in
any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so
long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that
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 non-interest bearing
deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting
Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts
owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender as a result of any
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C
Issuer or Swing Line Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that
Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so
long as no 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
that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its
obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as
otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if
(x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C
Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its
appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when
the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 or Section 5.03, as
applicable, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay
the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata
basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings
owed to, that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other
53
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 2.15(a)(ii)
shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender
irrevocably consents hereto.
(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender (A) shall not 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)
and (B) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided
in Section 2.03(h).
(iv) Reallocation of Applicable Percentages to Reduce Fronting
Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for
purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender
to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line
Loans pursuant to Sections 2.03 and 2.04, the “Applicable
Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect
to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided that (A) each such
reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender
becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default exists; and (B) the aggregate obligation
of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in
Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference,
if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the
aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of that Lender.
(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swing
Line Lender and the L/C Issuer agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting
Lender should no longer be deemed to be 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 will, to the extent applicable, purchase that
portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the
Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and
unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata
basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect
to Section 2.15(a)(iv)), whereupon that 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 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 will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder
arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
ARTICLE III
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY
3.01 Taxes.
(a) Payments Free of Taxes — Obligation to Withhold: Payments on Account of Taxes.
(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Loan
Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall to the extent permitted
by applicable Laws be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding
for any Taxes. If, however, applicable Laws require any Loan Party or the
Administrative Agent to withhold or deduct any Tax, such Tax shall be withheld or
deducted in accordance with such Laws as determined by such
54
Loan Party or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, upon the basis of the
information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.
(ii) If the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Internal
Revenue Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States Federal backup
withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) the Administrative Agent
shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by the Administrative Agent to be
required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to
subsection (e) below, (B) the Administrative Agent shall timely pay the full amount
withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Internal
Revenue Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, the sum payable by the Loan Parties shall be increased as
necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions
(including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the
Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount
equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.
(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties. Without limiting the provisions of subsection
(a) above, the Loan Parties shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority
in accordance with applicable Laws.
(c) Tax Indemnification.
(i) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, the Loan Parties
shall, and do hereby indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the L/C Issuer,
and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten days after demand therefor, for the
full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other
Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section)
withheld or deducted by the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent or paid by the
Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and any penalties,
interest and reasonable 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. The Loan Parties shall also, and do hereby, indemnify the
Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten days after
demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender or the L/C Issuer for any reason fails to
pay to the Administrative Agent as required by clause (ii) of this subsection; provided
that, for avoidance of doubt, any amounts paid by the Loan Parties to the Administrative
Agent pursuant to clause (i) of this Section shall be subject to the indemnification
obligations of such Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section. A
certificate as to the amount of any such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by
a Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the
Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, shall be
conclusive absent demonstrable error.
(ii) Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) or (b) above, each Lender and
the L/C Issuer shall, and does hereby, indemnify each Loan Party and the
Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten days after
demand therefor, against any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims,
liabilities, penalties, interest and expenses (including the fees, charges and
disbursements of any counsel for such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent) incurred by
or asserted against such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent by any Governmental
Authority as a result of the failure by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be,
to deliver, or as a result of the inaccuracy, inadequacy or deficiency of, any
documentation required to be delivered by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may
be, to
55
such Loan Party or the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (e). Each Lender and the
L/C Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all
amounts at any time owing to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, under this
Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent
under this clause (ii). The agreements in this clause (ii) shall survive the resignation
and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the
replacement of, a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the termination of the Commitments and the
repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.
(d) Evidence of Payments. Upon request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the
case may be, after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party or by the Administrative Agent to a
Governmental Authority, as provided in this Section 3.01, the Borrower shall deliver (or cause the
applicable Loan Party to deliver) to the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall
deliver to the Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued
by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by Law to
report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent, as the case may be.
(e) Status of Lenders: Tax Documentation.
(i) Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent, at the
time or times prescribed by applicable Laws or when reasonably requested by the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by
applicable Laws or by the taxing authorities of any jurisdiction and such other reasonably
requested information as will permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case
may be, to determine (A) whether or not payments made hereunder or under any other Loan
Document are subject to Taxes, (B) if applicable, the required rate of withholding or
deduction, and (C) such Lender’s entitlement to any available exemption from, or reduction
of, applicable Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Lender by the Borrower
pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise to establish such Lender’s status for withholding
tax purposes in the applicable jurisdiction.
(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is a resident
for tax purposes in the United States
(A) any Lender that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section
7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent executed originals of IRS Form W-9 or such other
documentation or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested
by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender
is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements; and
(B) each Foreign Lender that is entitled under the Internal Revenue Code or
any applicable treaty to an exemption from or reduction of
withholding tax with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan
Document shall 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 request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent,
but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the
following is applicable:
56
(I) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for
benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party,
(II) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI,
(III) executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY and all required
supporting documentation,
(IV) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the
exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Internal
Revenue Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is
not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the
Internal Revenue Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower
within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code,
or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section
881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code and (y) executed originals of
IRS Form W-8BEN, or
(V) executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable
Laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United
States Federal withholding tax together with such supplementary
documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Laws to permit the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or
deduction required to be made.
(iii) Each Lender shall promptly (A) notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption
or reduction, and (B) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in
the reasonable judgment of such Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the
redesignation of its Lending Office) to avoid any requirement of applicable Laws of any
jurisdiction that the Borrower or the Administrative Agent make any withholding or
deduction for taxes from amounts payable to such Lender.
3.02 Illegality.
If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority
has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain
or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate, 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
through the Administrative Agent, (a) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar
Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended and (b) if
such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the
interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base
Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such
illegality, be
determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component of
the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such
notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all of such Lender’s Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate
Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such
illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurodollar Rate
57
component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender
may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such
Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Rate Loans and (y) if such notice
asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the
Eurodollar Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the
Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurodollar Rate component thereof
until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal
for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate. Upon any such
prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or
converted.
3.03 Inability to Determine Rates.
If the Required Lenders determine that for any reason in connection with any request for a
Eurodollar Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof that (a) 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, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for
determining the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed
Eurodollar Rate Loan, or (c) the Eurodollar Base Rate for any requested Interest Period with
respect to a proposed Eurodollar Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate
Loan or in connection with a Eurodollar Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost
to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower
and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate
Loans shall be suspended and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding
sentence with respect to the Eurodollar Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the
Eurodollar Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the
Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon
receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion
to 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.
3.04 Increased Costs.
(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, any Lender (except any reserve requirement
reflected in the Eurodollar Rate) or the L/C Issuer;
(ii) subject any Lender or the L/C Issuer to any tax of any kind whatsoever with
respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any participation in a Letter of Credit or
any Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such
Lender or the L/C Issuer in respect thereof (except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes
covered by Section 3.01 and the imposition of, or
any change in the rate of, any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer);
or
(iii) impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other
condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such
Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
58
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of
making or maintaining any Loan the interest on which is determined by reference to the
Eurodollar Rate (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase
the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any
Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter
of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the
L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon
request of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such
Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or
reduction suffered.
(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law
affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or
the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the
effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s capital or on the
capital of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this
Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of
Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer, to a level below
that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company could
have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the L/C
Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company with
respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the
L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or
the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction
suffered.
(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the L/C Issuer setting forth
the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer 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 demonstrable error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the
L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days
after receipt thereof.
(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the L/C Issuer to demand
compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of
such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation,
provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the L/C Issuer
pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions
suffered more than six-months prior to the date that such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may
be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
and of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if
the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the
six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect
thereof).
3.05 Compensation for Losses.
Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) 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 continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loan on
a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary,
mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);
59
(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 Eurodollar Rate Loan on the date or
in the amount notified by the Borrower; or
(c) any assignment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the
Interest Period therefor as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section
11.13;
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 the Lenders under this Section
3.05, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Rate Loan made by it at the
Eurodollar Base Rate used in determining 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.
3.06 Mitigation of Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under
Section 3.04, or the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, the L/C
Issuer, or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to
Section 3.01, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.02, then such Lender or the L/C
Issuer, as applicable, shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for
funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another
of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as
applicable, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant
to Section 3.01 or 3.04, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice
pursuant to Section 3.02, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender or
the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be. The Borrower hereby agrees to
pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the L/C Issuer in connection with
any such designation or assignment.
(b) Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.04, or if the
Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for
the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, the Borrower may replace such Lender in
accordance with Section 11.13.
3.07 Survival.
All of the Loan Parties’ obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the
Aggregate Revolving Commitments, repayment of all other Obligations hereunder and resignation of
the Administrative Agent.

Each of the Guarantors hereby jointly and severally guarantees to the Administrative Agent,
each Lender, each Affiliate of a Lender that enters into a Treasury Management Agreement with the
Parent or any Subsidiary, each Secured Swap Provider that enters into a Swap Contract with the
Parent or any Subsidiary and each other holder of the Obligations as hereinafter provided, as
primary obligor and not as surety, the prompt payment of the Obligations in full when due (whether
at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash
collateralization or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms thereof. The Guarantors
hereby further agree that if any of the Obligations is not paid in full when due (whether at stated
maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or
otherwise), the Guarantors will, jointly and severally, promptly pay the same, without any demand
or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of
the Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, as
a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) in
accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Loan
Documents or the other documents relating to the Obligations, the obligations of each Guarantor
under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not exceed an aggregate amount equal to the
largest amount that would not render such obligations subject to avoidance under applicable Debtor
Relief Laws.
4.02 Obligations Unconditional.
The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 4.01 are joint and several, absolute and
unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of
any of the Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Obligations, or any substitution,
release, impairment or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Obligations,
and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance
whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety
or guarantor (other than Satisfaction in Full), it being the intent of this Section 4.02 that the
obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all
circumstances. Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation,
indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against the Borrower or any other Guarantor for amounts
paid under this Article IV until Satisfaction in Full. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, it is agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the occurrence of any one or
more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which
shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:
(a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for
any performance of or compliance with any of the Obligations shall be extended, or such
performance or compliance shall be waived;
(b) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents or
any other document relating to the Obligations shall be done or omitted;
(c) the maturity of any of the Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the
Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under
any of the Loan Documents or any other document relating to the Obligations shall be waived
or any other guarantee of any of the Obligations or any security therefor shall be
released, impaired or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;
61
(d) any Lien granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any other holder
of the Obligations as security for any of the Obligations shall fail to attach or be
perfected; or
(e) any of the Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable (including for
the benefit of any creditor of any Guarantor) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any
Person (including any creditor of any Guarantor).
With respect to its obligations hereunder, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives to the
extent permitted by Law diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices
whatsoever and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any other holder of the Obligations
exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Loan Documents or
any other document relating to the Obligations or against any other Person under any other
guarantee of, or security for, any of the Obligations.
4.03 Reinstatement.
The obligations of each Guarantor under this Article IV shall be automatically reinstated if
and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the
Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligations,
whether as a result of any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, and each Guarantor agrees that it will
indemnify the Administrative Agent and each other holder of the Obligations in accordance with
Section 11.04 for all reasonable costs and expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements
of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such holder of the Obligations in connection
with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending
against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or
similar payment under any Debtor Relief Law.
4.04 Certain Additional Waivers.
Each Guarantor agrees that such Guarantor shall have no right of recourse to security for the
Obligations, except through the exercise of rights of subrogation pursuant to Section 4.02 and
through the exercise of rights of contribution pursuant to Section 4.06.
4.05 Remedies.
The Guarantors agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, as between the Guarantors,
on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the other holders of the Obligations, on the
other hand, the Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and
payable as specified in Section 9.02 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances
specified in Section 9.02) for purposes of Section 4.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or
other prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing the Obligations from becoming
automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such
declaration (or the Obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), the
Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and
payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 4.01. The Guarantors acknowledge and agree that
their obligations hereunder are secured in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents
and that the holders of the Obligations may exercise their remedies thereunder in accordance with
the terms thereof.
4.06 Rights of Contribution.
The Guarantors agree among themselves that, in connection with payments made hereunder, each
Guarantor shall have contribution rights against the other Guarantors as permitted under applicable
law.
62
Such contribution rights shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the obligations of
such Guarantors under the Loan Documents and no Guarantor shall exercise such rights of
contribution until Satisfaction in Full.
4.07 Guarantee of Payment; Continuing Guarantee.
The guarantee in this Article IV is a guaranty of payment and not of collection, is a
continuing guarantee, and shall apply to the Obligations whenever arising.

(a) declare the commitment of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the L/C

held by them;
94
Fourth, to (a) payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid
principal of the Loans and L/C Borrowings, (b) payment of breakage, termination or other

among the Lenders (and, in the case of such Swap Contracts, Secured Swap Providers, and in
the case of such Treasury Management Agreements, Affiliates of Lenders) and the L/C Issuer
in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by
them; and
Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to the
Borrower or as otherwise required by Law.

aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fourth above shall be applied to
satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as
Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining
amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.
ARTICLE X
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
10.01 Appointment and Authority.
Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on
its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes
the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are
delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions
and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the
benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and no Loan Party shall have
rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.
The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan
Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender, Swing Line Lender (if
applicable), potential Swap Contract provider and potential Treasury Management Agreement provider)
and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as
the agent of such Lender and the L/C Issuer for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any
and all Liens on Collateral, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental
thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents,
sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section
10.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof)
granted under the Collateral Documents, or for
exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent),
shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article X and Article
XI (including Section 11.04(c), as though such co-agents, subagents and
attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full
herein with respect thereto.
95
10.02 Rights as a Lender.
The Person serving as the Administrative 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 the
Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated
or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent
hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend
money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage
in any kind of business with the Parent or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such
Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the
Lenders.
10.03 Exculpatory Provisions.
The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Administrative Agent:
(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of
whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(b) shall not have any 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 the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as
directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the
Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents),
provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action
that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to
liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and
(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents,
have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any
information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or
obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any
capacity.
The Administrative Agent shall not 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 the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be
necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 11.01 and 9.02) or (ii)
in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be
deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is
given to the Administrative Agent by a Loan Party, a Lender or the L/C Issuer.
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire
into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered
hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance
of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the
occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation,
perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the
value or the sufficiency of any
96
Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article V or elsewhere herein,
other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative
Agent.
10.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for
relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other
writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated
by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally
or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any
liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making
of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the
satisfaction of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such
condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall
have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such
Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal
counsel (who may be counsel for the Loan Parties), 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.
10.05 Delegation of Duties.
The Administrative 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 the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform
any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related
Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the
Related Parties of the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent.
10.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the
L/C Issuer and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders
shall have the right, subject to the approval of the Borrower unless an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a
successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such
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
Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on
behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the
qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the
Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such
resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent
shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents
(except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of
the Lenders or the L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent
shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent
is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or
through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer
directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor
97
Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s
appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested
with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative
Agent, and the retiring Administrative 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 Section). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative
Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the
Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.04 shall
continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative 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 Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also
constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a
successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and
become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer and
Swing Line Lender, (ii) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all
of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (iii)
the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit,
if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the
retiring L/C Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer with respect
to such Letters of Credit.
10.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.
Each Lender and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance
upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision
to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of
their Related Parties 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 or any related agreement or any document furnished
hereunder or thereunder.
10.08 No Other Duties; Etc.
Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the bookrunners, arrangers,
syndication agents, documentation agents or co-agents shall have any powers, duties or
responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity,
as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder.
10.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.
In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial
proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the
principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein
expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent
shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in
such proceeding or otherwise:
(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing
and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations arising under
the Loan Documents that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be
necessary
98
or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the
Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent and
their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer
and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03(h) and
(i), 2.09 and 11.04) allowed in
such judicial proceeding; and
(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any
such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official
in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and the L/C Issuer to make such
payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent
to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, to pay to the
Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 11.04.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or
consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or the L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or the
L/C Issuer to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or
the L/C Issuer in any such proceeding.
10.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters.
The Lenders and the L/C Issuer irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option
and in its discretion,
(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent
under any Loan Document (i) upon Satisfaction in Full, (ii) that is transferred or to be
transferred as part of or in connection with any Disposition permitted hereunder or under
any other Loan Document or any Recovery Event, or (iii) as approved in accordance with
Section 11.01;
(b) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative
Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted
by Section 8.01(i); and
(c) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person
ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.
Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in
writing the Administrative 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 10.10.

which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date;
(D) each Incremental Term Facility shall be in a minimum principal amount of $5 million

(0.50%), then the Applicable Rate for the Term Loan and the Revolving Loans shall be
increased as to provide an all-in-yield on the Term Loan and the Revolving Loans that is
fifty basis points (0.50%) less than the all-in-yield on such Incremental Term Facility (for

The Incremental Term Facility Commitments and credit extensions thereunder shall constitute
Commitments and Credit Extensions 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 Guarantees and security interests created by the
Collateral Documents. Any such amendment effected pursuant to this clause (v) shall amend
the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to set forth the terms of each
Incremental Term Facility established thereby (subject to any applicable restrictions set
forth in this clause (v) and to effect such other changes (including changes to the
provisions of Section 2.05) as the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent shall
deem necessary or advisable in connection with the establishment of any such Incremental
Term Facility; provided, however, that no such
agreement shall: (A) effect any change described in Section 11.01(a), Section
11.01(b), Section 11.01(c) and Section 11.01(d) without the consent of
each Person required to consent to such change under such clause (it being agreed, however,
that establishment of
103
any Incremental Term Facility will not, of itself, be deemed to effect any of the
changes described in Section 11.01(a) and that modifications to the
definitions of “Commitments”, “Term Loan Commitments”,
“Loans” and “Required Lenders” or other provisions relating to
voting provisions to provide the Persons providing the applicable Incremental Term
Facility with the benefit of such provisions will not, by themselves, be deemed to
effect any of the changes described in Section 11.01(a)) or (B) amend
Articles VII, VIII or IX in any manner that by its
terms benefits one or more tranches, but not all tranches, of Loans or Commitments
without the prior written consent of the Required Revolving Lenders to the extent
the Lenders holding Revolving Commitments are not so benefited, and of Lenders
holding more than 50% of the outstanding principal amount of each separate tranche
of term loans then existing and not so benefited (it being agreed that no
provision requiring the Borrower to prepay term loans of one or more Incremental
Term Facilities with the proceeds of Dispositions, Recovery Events, Extraordinary
Receipts, Debt Issuances or Equity Issuances will be deemed to violate this
clause).
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be amended with the
written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Loan Parties (i) to add
one or more additional revolving credit or term loan facilities to this Agreement and to permit the
extensions of credit and all related obligations and liabilities arising in connection therewith
from time to time outstanding to share ratably (or on a basis subordinated to the existing
facilities hereunder) in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the
obligations and liabilities from time to time outstanding in respect of the existing facilities
hereunder, and (ii) in connection with the foregoing, to permit, as deemed appropriate by the
Administrative Agent and approved by the Required Lenders, the Lenders providing such additional
credit facilities to participate in any required vote or action required to be approved by the
Required Lenders or by any other number, percentage or class of Lenders hereunder.

provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the L/C Issuer
pursuant to Article II if such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as applicable, has notified the
Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic
communication. The Administrative Agent or any Loan Party may, in its discretion, agree to accept

procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to
particular notices or communications.
Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications
sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement
from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available,

(c) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT
PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR
THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE
BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING 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 ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE

Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to any Loan Party, any
Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of
any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of any Loan Party’s or the
Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the
extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (x) are determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party or (y) result from a claim brought by any Loan
Party against such Agent Party for breach in bad faith of such Agent Party’s obligations hereunder
or under any other Loan Document, if such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable
judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction;
provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to any Loan
Party, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental,
consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).
(d) Change
of Address, Etc. Each Loan Party, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer
and the Swing Line Lender may change its address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and
other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. Each other Lender may change

105
address, telecopier or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice
to each Loan Party, the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Swing Line Lender. In
addition, each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that
the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number,
telecopier number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be
sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender. Furthermore, each Public Lender agrees
to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have
selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen
of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such
Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable Law, including United States Federal and
state securities Laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through

Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including
telephonic Loan Notices and Swing Line Loan Notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of any Loan
Party even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were
not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof,
as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Loan Parties shall
indemnify the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer, each Lender and the Related Parties of each of
them from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on
each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of a Loan Party. All telephonic notices to and other
telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative

11.03
No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement.
No failure by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no
delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder shall
operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power
or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including the imposition of the Default
Rate) preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy,
power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided
under each other Loan Document are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers
and privileges provided by law.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the
authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the
Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law
in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the
Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 9.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders and
the L/C Issuer; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the
Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its
benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, (b) the L/C Issuer or the Swing Line Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that
inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may
be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in
accordance with Section 11.08 (subject to the terms of
Section 2.13), or (d) any
Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the
pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor
Relief Law; and provided further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise
ascribed to the Administrative Agent
106
pursuant to Section 9.02 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c)
and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.13, any Lender may, with the
consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized
by the Required Lenders.

hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related
expenses (including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel
for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time

any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Loan Party, and regardless of whether
any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any
Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related
expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable
judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, (y)
result from a claim brought by any Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such
Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if such Loan Party has
obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim
107
as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or (z) results from a dispute solely between
Indemnitees and not (1) involving any action or inaction by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries
or (2) relating to any action of such Indemnitee in its capacity as Administrative Agent or Lead
Arranger. |
(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Loan Parties for any reason fail
to pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by them to the
Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuer or any Related Party of any of the
foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent),
the L/C Issuer or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage
(determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought)
of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim,
damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the
Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the L/C Issuer in its capacity as such, or against
any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such

of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the
proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended
recipients of any information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such
Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in
connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby other than for direct or actual damages resulting from (x) the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction or (y) a claim brought by any Loan Party against such Indemnitee

Obligations.
11.05 Payments Set Aside.
To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Loan Party is made to the Administrative
Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender
exercises its right of setoff, 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 the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or
such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in
connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of
such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived
and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not
occurred, and (b) each Lender and the L/C Issuer severally agrees to pay to the Administrative
Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so
108
recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such
demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from
time to time in effect. The obligations of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer under clause (b) of the
preceding sentence shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of
this Agreement.
11.06 Successors and Assigns.

the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders) any legal

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees
all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents

no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the
aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans

consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided,
however, that
concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments
from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible
Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment
for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.
109
(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of
a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement
with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not (A)
apply to the Swing Line Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans or (B)
prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations in respect of
its Revolving Commitment (and the related Revolving Loans thereunder) and its outstanding Term

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of (1) any Term Loan
Commitment or Revolving Commitment if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender
with a Commitment in respect of the Commitment subject to such assignment, an Affiliate of
such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender and (2) any Term Loan to a
Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and

delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee
to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then
outstanding); and
(D) the consent of the Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of Revolving Loans and
Revolving Commitments.
(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and
deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and
recordation fee in the amount of $3,500; provided,

assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an
Administrative Questionnaire.
(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to the
Parent or any of the Parent’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of
its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the
foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) to a natural person.
(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and
obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and
110
until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the
assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate
amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment,
purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating
actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent,
the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting
Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent),
to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender
to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y)
acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in
Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of
any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without
compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall
be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance
occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c)
of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption,
the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest
assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this
Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by
such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations
under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be
entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01. 3.04, 3.05 and 11.04 with respect to
facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request,
the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any
assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not
comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such
Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this
Section.
(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of
the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative
Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the
recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal
amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from
time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the
Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the
Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a
Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender at
any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to,
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural
person, Defaulting Lender or the Parent or any of the Parent’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a
“Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement
(including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s
participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i)
such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and
(iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the
111
L/C Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which
a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to
enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender
will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other
modification described in Section 11.01(a) that affects such Participant. Subject to
subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 3.01. 3.04 and 3.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender
and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the
extent permitted by Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.08
as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section
2.13 as though it were a Lender.
(e) Limitations on Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive
any greater payment under Section 3.01 or 3.04 than the applicable Lender would
have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless
the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent
and the Borrower expressly consents to such increased payments. A Participant that would be a
Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01
unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant
agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with
Section 3.0l(e) as though it were a
Lender.
(f) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest
in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to
secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a
Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender
from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as
a party hereto.
(g) Resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its
Revolving Commitment and Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection (b) above, Bank of America may, (i)
upon thirty days’ notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and/or (ii) upon
thirty days’ notice to the Borrower, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such
resignation as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from
among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender
hereunder; provided, however,
that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank
of America as L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of America resigns as
L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer
hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its
resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to
require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts
pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall
retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line
Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right
to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing
Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer
and/or Swing Line Lender, (1) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as the case
may be, and (2) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the
Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements
satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with
respect to such Letters of Credit.
112
11.07 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality.
Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer agrees to maintain the
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a)
to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers,
employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives (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 requested by any regulatory
authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (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) solely to the extent necessary 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 of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its
rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to become a Lender
pursuant to clause (v) of the final proviso of Section 11.01 or (ii) any actual or
prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to a Loan
Party and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Parent or (h) 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 the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the L/C Issuer or any of their respective
Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Parent.
For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Parent or
any Subsidiary relating to the Parent or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses,
other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the
L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Parent or any Subsidiary. 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.
Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that (a) the
Information may include material non-public information concerning the Parent or a Subsidiary, 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 United States federal and state securities Laws.
11.08 Set-off.
If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the L/C Issuer and
each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, after
obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, 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 and other obligations (in whatever
currency) at any time owing by such Lender, the L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the
credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of such Loan Party
now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or the L/C
Issuer, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or the L/C Issuer shall have made any demand
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Loan Party
may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender or the L/C Issuer
different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness;
provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x)
all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent
113
for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.15 and, pending such
payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in
trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender
shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the
Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The
rights of each Lender, the L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in
addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the L/C
Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer agrees to notify
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent 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. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11.08, if at any time any
Lender, the L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates maintains (a) one or more deposit
accounts for the Borrower or any other Loan Party into which Medicare and/or Medicaid receivables
are deposited or (b) any deposit account of the type described in clauses (b), (c) or (d) of the
definition of Excluded Account, then, in each case, such Person shall waive the right of setoff
set forth herein.
11.09 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, such Person may, to the extent
permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense,
fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof,
and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of
interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
11.10
Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.
This Agreement 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 and the other Loan Documents 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 Section 5.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall
have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent 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 by
telecopy or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed
counterpart of this Agreement.
11.11 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. Such representations and warranties have been or
will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation
made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the
Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of
any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect until Satisfaction in Full.
114
11.12
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.
Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this
Section 11.12, if and to the extent that
the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be
limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, the L/C
Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in
effect only to the extent not so limited.
11.13 Replacement of Lenders.
If
(i) any Lender requests compensation under
Section 3.04, (ii) the Borrower is
required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account
of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.01, (iii) a Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”)
does not consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan
Document that has been approved by the Required Lenders as provided in Section 11.01 but
requires unanimous consent of all Lenders or all Lenders directly affected thereby (as applicable)
or (iv) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort,
upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and
delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and
consents required by, Section 11.06), all of its interests, rights and obligations under
this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations
(which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:
(a) the Borrower or Lender accepting such assignment shall have paid to the
Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in
Section 11.06(b);
(b) such Lender being replaced shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100%
of the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon,
accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.05) from the assignee (to the
extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the
case of all other amounts);
(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under
Section 3.04 or payments required to be made pursuant to
Section 3.01, such
assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and
(e) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Non-Consenting Lender’s failure
to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan
Document, the applicable assignee consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or
termination; provided that the failure by such Non-Consenting Lender to execute and
deliver an Assignment and Assumption shall not impair the validity of the removal of such
Non-Consenting Lender and the mandatory assignment of such Non-Consenting Lender’s
Commitments and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations and Swing Line Loans
pursuant to this
115
Section 11.13 shall nevertheless be effective without the execution by such
Non-Consenting Lender of an Assignment and Assumption.
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto,
as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to
require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and
Assumption or in any amendment or other modification hereof (including waivers and consents) shall
be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of

National Commerce Act, the
New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other

11.18 Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness.
Each holder of Intercompany Indebtedness (each a “Holder”) and each issuer of Intercompany
Indebtedness (each a “Maker”) agrees with the Administrative Agent and the other holders of the
Obligations as follows:
117
(a) Subordination. The payment of principal, interest, fees and other amounts with
respect to Intercompany Indebtedness is expressly subordinated to the Obligations.
(b) Payments. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Required
Lenders have terminated the Commitments and caused the Loans to be immediately due and payable
pursuant to Section 9.02, no Maker may make, and no Holder may take, demand, receive or
accept, any payment with respect to Intercompany Indebtedness.
(c) Payments Held in Trust. In the event any payment of principal or interest or
distribution of property of any Maker on or in respect of Intercompany Indebtedness shall be
received by any Holder in violation of Section 11.18(b), such payment or distribution shall be held
in trust for the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the holders of the Obligations, and such
Holder will forthwith turn over any such payments in the form received, properly endorsed or
assigned, to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the holders of the Obligations.
(d) Enforcement. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the
Required Lenders have terminated the Commitments and caused the Loans to be immediately due and
payable pursuant to Section 9.02, then no Holder shall be entitled to demand payment of or
accelerate any Intercompany Indebtedness or to exercise any remedies or take any actions against
any Maker to enforce any of such Holder’s rights with respect to Intercompany Indebtedness.
(e) Collateral. No Holder will ask, demand, accept, or receive any collateral security
from any Loan Party for the payment of Intercompany Indebtedness, and any collateral security for
the payment of Intercompany Indebtedness that any Holder may now or hereafter have on any property
of any Loan Party is expressly subordinated to the Liens of the Administrative Agent, for the
benefit of the holders of the Obligations, securing the Obligations.
(f) Attorney in Fact. Each Holder irrevocably authorizes and directs the
Administrative Agent and any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, custodian or assignee for the benefit
of creditors of any Maker, whether in voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or
reorganization, in its behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate
the subordination provided for in this Section 11.18 and irrevocably appoints, which
appointment is coupled with an interest, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any
Event of Default, the Administrative Agent, or any such trustee, receiver, custodian or assignee,
its attorneys in fact for such purpose with full powers of substitution and revocation; provided
that all such irrevocable appointments shall terminate upon Satisfaction in Full.
(g) Proof and Vote of Claims. Each Holder irrevocably appoints, which appointment is
irrevocable and coupled with an interest, the Administrative Agent as such Holder’s true and lawful
attorney, with full power of substitution, in the name of such Holder, the Administrative Agent,
the holders of the Obligations or otherwise, for the sole use and benefit of the Administrative
Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, to prove and vote all claims relating to Intercompany
Indebtedness, and to receive and collect all distributions and payments to which such Holder would
be otherwise entitled on any liquidation of any Maker or any of its property or in any proceeding
affecting any Maker or its property under any Debtor Relief Laws; provided that all such
irrevocable appointments shall terminate upon Satisfaction in Full.
(h) No Interference. Each Holder agrees (i) not to take any action as the holder of
Intercompany Indebtedness that will impede, interfere with or restrict or restrain the exercise by
the Administrative Agent of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents and (ii) upon the
commencement of any proceeding under Debtor Relief Laws, to take such actions as the holder of
Intercompany Indebtedness as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to effectuate the
subordination
118
provided hereby. In furtherance thereof, each Holder, in its capacity as a holder of Intercompany
Indebtedness, agrees not to oppose any motion filed or supported by the Administrative Agent or
any other holder of the Obligations for relief from stay or for adequate protection in respect of
the Obligations and not to oppose any motions supported by the Administrative Agent or any other
holder of the Obligations for any Loan Party’s use of cash collateral or post petition borrowing
from any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent.
11.19 USA PATRIOT Act.
Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent
(for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the
requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26,
2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the
Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of the Loan Parties and other
information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the
Loan Parties in accordance with the Act. The Loan Parties shall, promptly following a request by
the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the
Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under
applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.
