NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above premises, the parties hereto hereby agree that on the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date (as defined below) the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“Administrative Agent”: JPMorgan Chase Bank, in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder and, unless the context otherwise requires, in its capacity as Collateral Agent; it being understood that (a) matters concerning Qualified Global Currency Loans (other than Canadian Dollar Loans) will be administered by Chase Manhattan International Limited and therefore all notices concerning such Loans will be required to be given at the London Administrative Office and (b) matters concerning Canadian Dollar Loans will be administered by The Bank of Nova Scotia and therefore all notices concerning such Loans will be required to be given at the Canadian Administrative Office.

“Administrative Office”: the New York Administrative Office, the London Administrative Office or the Canadian Administrative Office, as applicable.

SECTION 2.1. Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each relevant Lender agrees (i) to severally make a Tranche A Term Loan (or, pursuant to paragraph (b) below, to convert all or part of such Lender’s Old Tranche A Term Loan into a Tranche A Term Loan hereunder) in Dollars to the Parent Borrower on the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date in a principal amount equal to its Tranche A Commitment, (ii) to severally make Domestic Revolving Loans in Dollars to the Parent Borrower from time to time during the Domestic Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in such Lender’s Domestic Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Domestic Revolving Commitment and (iii) to severally make Global Revolving Loans in Dollars or one or more Qualified Global Currencies (as specified in the Borrowing Requests with respect thereto) to any Borrower from time to time during the Global Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (A) such Lender’s Global Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Global Revolving Commitment or (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s Canadian Dollar Loans at such time exceeding such Lender’s Canadian Commitment. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Parent Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Domestic Revolving Loans and any Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Global Revolving Loans. Amounts repaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed. All Tranche B Term Loans, Tranche C Term Loans, and Letters of Credit outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement on the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date shall remain outstanding to the Parent Borrower in the currency in which they were made or issued, as applicable, hereunder on the terms set forth herein.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with the making of any Tranche A Term Loan pursuant to paragraph (a) above, by delivering written notice to the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days prior to the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date, any Lender of Old Tranche A Term Loans may elect to convert all or part of the outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s Old Tranche A Term Loans into a principal amount of Tranche A Term Loans hereunder equal to the principal amount so converted. On the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date, such Old Tranche A Term Loans shall be converted for all purposes of this Agreement into Tranche A Term Loans hereunder, and the Administrative Agent shall record in the Register the aggregate amount of Old Tranche A Term Loans converted into Tranche A Term Loans. Any written notice to the Administrative Agent delivered by an applicable Lender pursuant to this Section shall specify (i) the amount of such Lender’s Tranche A Commitment and (ii) the principal amount of Old Tranche A Term Loans held by such Lender that are to be converted into Tranche A Term Loans.

SECTION 2.2. Loans and Borrowings. (a) Each Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class; provided that (i) each Global Revolving Loan (other than Canadian Dollar Loans) shall be made by the Global Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Available Global Revolving Commitments and (ii)

each Canadian Dollar Loan shall be made by the Canadian Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Canadian Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder.

(b) Subject to Section 2.15, (i) each Revolving Borrowing denominated in Dollars and each Term Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans as the relevant Borrower may request in accordance herewith and (ii) each Qualified Global Currency Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of Eurocurrency Loans. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the relevant Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000. At the time that each ABR Revolving Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000; provided that (i) an ABR Domestic Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Domestic Revolving Commitments or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.5(e) and (ii) an ABR Global Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Global Revolving Commitments. Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $500,000 and not less than $1,000,000. No more than 20 Eurocurrency Borrowings may be outstanding at any one time under the Facilities other than the Global Revolving Facility. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, no more than 10 Eurocurrency Borrowings may be outstanding at any one time under the Global Revolving Facility.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, a Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date, Global Revolving Maturity Date, Tranche A Maturity Date, Tranche B Maturity Date or Tranche C Maturity Date, as applicable.

SECTION 2.3. Requests for Borrowings. To request a Revolving Borrowing or a Tranche A Term Borrowing, the relevant Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time (or if the request is delivered in London, 11:00 a.m., London time), three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that any such notice of an ABR Domestic Revolving Borrowing to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.5(e) may be given not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and (x) signed by the Parent Borrower and, in the case of Borrowings by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower or (y) in the case of Borrowings by a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, signed by the Parent Borrower or such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as specified by the Parent Borrower by prior written notice to the Administrative Agent. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2: (i) the Borrower requesting such Borrowing (and be signed on behalf of such Borrower); (ii) the Class and Type of the requested Borrowing; (iii) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing; (iv) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; (v) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto; (vi) the location and number

of the relevant Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.6; and (vii) the currency of such Borrowing (which shall be in Dollars in the case of Tranche A Term Loans, Domestic Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans, and otherwise shall be in Dollars or a Qualified Global Currency). If no election as to the currency of a Global Revolving Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing if denominated in Dollars or a Eurocurrency Borrowing if denominated in a Qualified Global Currency. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurocurrency Borrowing, then the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each relevant Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.4. Swingline Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Parent Borrower from time to time during the Domestic Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $40,000,000 or (ii) the sum of the total Domestic Revolving Exposures exceeding the total Domestic Revolving Commitments; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Parent Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

(b) To request a Swingline Loan, the Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy promptly thereafter), not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Parent Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Parent Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Parent Borrower with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.5(e), by remittance to the applicable Issuing Lender) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.

(c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on any Business Day require the Domestic Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Domestic Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Domestic Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Domestic Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Domestic Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Domestic Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.6 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.6 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Domestic Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the

Domestic Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Parent Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Parent Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Domestic Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Parent Borrower of its obligation to repay such Swingline Loan.

SECTION 2.5. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, any Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender, at any time and from time to time during the Domestic Revolving Availability Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the account party for each Letter of Credit shall be the Parent Borrower or the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, as specified by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender in consultation with the Parent Borrower. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by a Borrower to, or entered into by a Borrower with, the applicable Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. The letters of credit identified on Schedule 2.5 (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) shall be deemed to be “Letters of Credit” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the relevant Borrower shall deliver to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice specifying the name of the relevant Borrower and requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the currency in which such Letter of Credit is to be denominated (which shall be Dollars or, subject to Section 2.21, an Alternative Currency), the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by the applicable Issuing Lender, the relevant Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Lender’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. Following receipt of such notice and prior to the issuance of the requested Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall calculate the Dollar Equivalent of such Letter of Credit and shall notify the Parent Borrower, the relevant Borrower and the applicable Issuing Lender of the amount of the Total Domestic Exposure after giving effect to (i) the issuance of such Letter of Credit, (ii) the issuance or expiration of any other Letter of Credit that is to be issued or will expire prior to the requested date of issuance of such Letter of Credit and (iii) the borrowing or repayment of any Domestic Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans that (based upon notices delivered to the Administrative Agent by the Parent Borrower) are to be borrowed or repaid prior to the requested date of issuance of such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Parent Borrower and the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the LC Exposure shall not exceed $250,000,000, (ii) the LC Exposure with respect to Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, pounds sterling and Euros shall not exceed $250,000,000, (iii) the

Alternative Currency LC Exposure with respect to Letters of Credit denominated in any Alternative Currency (other than pounds sterling or Euros) shall not exceed $75,000,000 and (iv) the Total Domestic Exposure shall not exceed the total Domestic Revolving Commitments.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date, provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, Letters of Credit having an aggregate face amount not in excess of $75,000,000 may provide for an expiration date that is more than one year after the date of issuance, so long as such expiration date does not extend beyond the date referred to in clause (ii) above.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender or the Lenders, the applicable Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Domestic Revolving Lender, and each Domestic Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Domestic Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the account of such Issuing Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of (i) each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender in Dollars and (ii) the Dollar Equivalent, using the Exchange Rates on the date such payment is required, of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender in an Alternative Currency and, in each case, not reimbursed by the relevant Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to such Borrower for any reason (or, if such reimbursement payment was refunded in an Alternative Currency, the Dollar Equivalent thereof using the Exchange Rates on the date of such refund). Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If the applicable Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the relevant Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement in Dollars, or (subject to the two immediately succeeding sentences) the applicable Alternative Currency, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time or the relevant local time, as applicable, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if such Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time or the relevant local time, as applicable, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by such Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time or the relevant local time, as applicable, on the Business Day immediately following the day that such Borrower receives such notice; provided that, in the case of any LC Disbursement made in Dollars, the relevant Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.3 or 2.4 that such payment be financed in Dollars with an ABR Domestic Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, such Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Domestic Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the relevant Borrower’s reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Alternative Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender or any Lender to any stamp duty, ad valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in

Dollars, such Borrower shall, at its option, either (x) pay the amount of any such tax requested by the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Lender or Lender or (y) reimburse each LC Disbursement made in such Alternative Currency in Dollars, in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the applicable Exchange Rate on the date such LC Disbursement is made, of such LC Disbursement. If the relevant Borrower fails to make such payment when due, then (i) if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, automatically and with no further action required, such Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date when such payment was due, of such LC Disbursement and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Lender and each other Domestic Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the Dollar Equivalent thereof (if such LC Disbursement relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), the payment then due from such Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Domestic Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the relevant Borrower (determined as provided in clause (i) above, if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit), in the same manner as provided in Section 2.6 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.6 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Domestic Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender in Dollars the amounts so received by it from the Domestic Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from any Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Domestic Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Domestic Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Domestic Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve any Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. A Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any application for the issuance of a Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, such Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Lender; provided that neither of the foregoing sentences shall be construed to excuse such Issuing Lender from liability to a Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by each Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other

documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, an Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Lender shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the relevant Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy promptly thereafter) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the relevant Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Lender and the Domestic Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the relevant Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that such Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Domestic Revolving Loans; provided that, if such Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.14(c) shall apply; provided further that, in the case of an LC Disbursement made under an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, the amount of interest due with respect thereto shall (i) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed on or before the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement, (A) be payable in the applicable Alternative Currency and (B) if not reimbursed on the date of such LC Disbursement, bear interest at a rate equal to the rate reasonably determined by the applicable Issuing Lender to be the cost to such Issuing Lender of funding such LC Disbursement plus the Applicable Margin applicable to Eurocurrency Revolving Loans at such time and (ii) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed after the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement (A) be payable in Dollars, (B) accrue on the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date such LC Disbursement was made, of such LC Disbursement and (C) bear interest at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans, subject to Section 2.14(c). Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Domestic Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of any Issuing Lender. Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of such Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Parent Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.13(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of such Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous

Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that a Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Domestic Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing at least 51% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, such Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Domestic Revolving Lenders, an amount in Dollars and in cash equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that (i) the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn Alternative Currency Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements in an Alternative Currency that the Borrowers are not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the applicable Alternative Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC Disbursements and (ii) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in paragraph (h) or (i) of Article VII. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Alternative Currency LC Exposure shall be calculated using the Exchange Rates on the date notice demanding cash collateralization is delivered to a Borrower. Each Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(d). Each such deposit pursuant to this paragraph or pursuant to Section 2.11(d) shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of each Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the relevant Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the relevant Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Domestic Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing at least 51% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of such Borrower under this Agreement. If a Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If a Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(d), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, such Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.11(d), and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(k) Conversion. In the event that the Loans become immediately due and payable on any date pursuant to Article VII, all amounts (i) that a Borrower is at the time or thereafter becomes required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC Disbursements made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (other than amounts in respect of which such Borrower has deposited cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.5(j), if such cash collateral was deposited in the applicable Alternative Currency to the extent so deposited or applied), (ii) that the Domestic Revolving Lenders are at the time or thereafter become required to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes required to distribute to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made

under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit and (iii) of each Domestic Revolving Lender’s participation in any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the Exchange Rates on such date (or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such date, on the date such LC Disbursement is made), of such amounts. On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender or any Lender in respect of the Obligations described in this paragraph shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder.

(l) Additional Issuing Lenders. The Parent Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Domestic Revolving Lender, designate one or more additional Domestic Revolving Lenders to act as an issuing lender under the terms of this Agreement, provided that the total number of Domestic Revolving Lenders so designated at any time plus the total number of Issuing Lenders pursuant to clause (c) of the definition of the term “Issuing Lenders” at such time shall not exceed five. Any Domestic Revolving Lender designated as Issuing Lender pursuant to this paragraph (1) shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Lender” for the purposes of this Agreement (in addition to being a Domestic Revolving Lender) with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Domestic Revolving Lender.

(m) Reporting. Each Issuing Lender will report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit issued by it and outstanding as of the last Business Day of the preceding week, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance or amendment, and the aggregate face amount of Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and such Issuing Lender shall advise the Administrative Agent on such Business Day whether such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension occurred and whether the amount thereof changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender makes any LC Disbursement, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement and (iv) on any Business Day on which any Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Lender on such day, the date of such failure, the relevant Borrower and amount of such LC Disbursement.

SECTION 2.6 Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders, in immediately available funds, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, in the case of fundings to an account in New York City, or 12:00 noon, local time, in the case of fundings to an account in another jurisdiction; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.4. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the relevant Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request, which account must be in the name of such Borrower and, as applicable, in London or in the financial center of the country of the currency of the Loan; provided that ABR Domestic Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.5(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Lender. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, the Tranche B Term Loans and Tranche C Term Loans made on the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date shall initially be ABR Loans.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any 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 paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in

reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount in the required currency. 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 such Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon in such currency, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds in the relevant currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.7. Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing and Term Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, a Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. A Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Borrower may not (i) elect to convert the currency in which any Loans are denominated, (ii) elect to convert Qualified Global Currency Loans from Eurocurrency Loans to ABR Loans, (iii) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans that does not comply with Section 2.2(d), (iv) elect to convert any ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans that would result in the number of Eurocurrency Borrowings exceeding the maximum number of Eurocurrency Borrowings permitted under Section 2.2(c), (v) elect an Interest Period for Eurocurrency Loans unless the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Eurocurrency Loans (including any Eurocurrency Loans made to such Borrower in the same currency on the date that such Interest Period is to begin) to which such Interest Period will apply complies with the requirements as to minimum principal amount set forth in Section 2.2(c) or (vi) elect to convert or continue any Swingline Borrowings.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, a Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.3 if such Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the relevant Borrower.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.2 and paragraph (a) of this Section: (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies; (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day; (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurocurrency Borrowing; and (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurocurrency Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election. If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurocurrency Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each relevant Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the relevant Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. If the relevant Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Qualified Global Currency prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall automatically continue as a Eurocurrency Loan having an Interest Period of one month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Parent Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing denominated in Dollars may be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) no Borrowing denominated in a Qualified Global Currency having an Interest Period in excess of one month may be made or continued.

SECTION 2.8. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the Tranche A Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date, (ii) the Domestic Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date and (iii) the Global Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Global Revolving Maturity Date.

(b) The Parent Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000 and (ii) the Parent Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, (i) the Total Domestic Exposure would exceed the total Domestic Revolving Commitments or (ii) the Total Global Exposure would exceed the total Global Revolving Commitments.

(c) The Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section, at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Parent Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Parent Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness or closing of other credit facilities, debt financings or Dispositions, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Parent Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

SECTION 2.9 Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(b) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 9.4(c) and a subaccount for each Lender in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder (whether or not evidenced by a promissory note), the Class and

Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal and/or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(c) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, each applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.4) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to such payee and its registered assigns.

(d) The Parent Borrower shall repay (i) the then unpaid principal amount of the Domestic Revolving Loans on the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date and (ii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Domestic Revolving Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Domestic Revolving Borrowing is made, the Parent Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.

(e) Each Borrower shall repay the then unpaid principal amount of the Global Revolving Loans on the Global Revolving Maturity Date.

SECTION 2.11 Pepayment of Loans. (a) Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this Section, provided that Canadian B/As may not be optionally prepaid.

(b) If on any date any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Parent Borrower shall, within ten Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, prepay Term Borrowings in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Net Proceeds; provided that, in the case of any event described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of the term Prepayment Event, if the Parent Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer to the effect that the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiaries intend to apply the Net Proceeds from such event (“Reinvestment Net Proceeds”), within 360 days after receipt of such Net Proceeds, to make Permitted Acquisitions or Investments permitted by Section 6.5 or acquire real property, equipment or other assets to be used in the business of the Parent Borrower and the Subsidiaries, and certifying that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of such event except to the extent of any Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so applied by the end of such 360-day period, at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to the Net Proceeds that have not been so applied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, from and after the date in any fiscal year of the Parent Borrower on which the aggregate gross proceeds (inclusive of amounts of the type described in the first parenthetical of Section 6.6(d)) from Dispositions pursuant to Sections 6.6(d) and (j) received during such fiscal year exceed 10% of Total Consolidated Assets, the Net Proceeds from each subsequent Prepayment Event occurring during such fiscal year resulting from Dispositions pursuant to Sections 6.6(d) and (j) (and a ratable amount of Net Proceeds from any Prepayment Event that first causes the

aforementioned 10% threshold to be exceeded, which ratable amount shall be determined by reference to a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the portion of the gross proceeds from such Prepayment Event representing the excess above such 10% threshold and the denominator of which shall be the aggregate gross proceeds from such Prepayment Event) may not be treated as Reinvestment Net Proceeds.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to the amount of any mandatory prepayment described in Section 2.11 that is allocated to Tranche B Borrowings or Tranche C Borrowings (such amounts, the “Tranche B Prepayment Amount” and the “Tranche C Prepayment Amount”, respectively), at any time when Tranche A Borrowings remain outstanding, the Parent Borrower will, in lieu of applying such amount to the prepayment of Tranche B Borrowings and Tranche C Borrowings, respectively, on the date of the relevant Prepayment Event, give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the Administrative Agent prepare and provide to each Tranche B Lender and Tranche C Lender a notice (each, a “Prepayment Option Notice”) as described below. As promptly as practicable after receiving such notice from the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent will send to each Tranche B Lender and Tranche C Lender a Prepayment Option Notice, which shall be in the form of Exhibit H, and shall include an offer by the Parent Borrower to prepay on the date that is ten Business Days after the date of the relevant Prepayment Event, the relevant Term Loans of such Lender by an amount equal to the portion of the Prepayment Amount indicated in such Lender’s Prepayment Option Notice as being applicable to such Lender’s Tranche B Term Loans or Tranche C Term Loans, as the case may be. Each Tranche B Lender and Tranche C Lender shall return a completed Prepayment Option Notice to the Administrative Agent no later than three Business Days prior to the mandatory prepayment date specified in the applicable Prepayment Option Notice (each a “Mandatory Prepayment Date”), with the failure to so return such notice being deemed to constitute an acceptance of the relevant prepayment. On the Mandatory Prepayment Date, (i) the Parent Borrower shall pay to the relevant Tranche B Lenders and Tranche C Lenders the aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the outstanding relevant Term Loans in respect of which such Lenders have accepted, or have been deemed to have accepted, prepayment as described above and (ii) the Parent Borrower shall pay to the Tranche A Lenders an amount equal to the portion of the Tranche B Prepayment Amount and the Tranche C Prepayment Amount not accepted by the Tranche B Lenders and the Tranche C Lenders, and such amount shall be applied to the prepayment of the Tranche A Borrowings.

(d) If on any Determination Date relating to the Global Revolving Facility, the Total Global Exposure exceeds 105% of the total Global Revolving Commitments, the Parent Borrower shall, without notice or demand, within three Business Days after such Determination Date, prepay (or cause the relevant Foreign Subsidiary Borrower to prepay) Revolving Borrowings in an aggregate amount such that, after giving effect thereto, (i) the Total Global Exposure does not exceed the total Global Revolving Commitments and (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Canadian Dollar Loans does not exceed the total Canadian Commitments. If on any Determination Date relating to the Domestic Revolving Facility, the Total Domestic Exposure exceeds 105% of the total Domestic Revolving Commitments, the Parent Borrower shall, without notice or demand, within three Business Days after such Determination Date, prepay Revolving Borrowings or Swingline Borrowings (or, if no such Borrowings are outstanding, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.5(j)) in an aggregate amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the Total Domestic Exposure does not exceed the total Domestic Revolving Commitments.

(e) A Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy promptly thereafter) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time (or 11:00 a.m., London time, as applicable), three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of

prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that, if a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.8, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.8. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.2, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment.

SECTION 2.12 Certain Payment Application Matters. (a) Each repayment or prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Borrowing. It is understood that, in the case of Global Revolving Loans, the relevant Borrower may select the particular currency of Loans to be prepaid, and such prepayment shall then be applied ratably to such Loans. Repayments and prepayments of Term Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid.

(b) Any mandatory prepayment of Term Borrowings shall, subject to Section 2.11(c), be allocated pro rata among the Tranche A Term Borrowings, Tranche B Term Borrowings and Tranche C Term Borrowings based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Borrowings of each such Class. Any optional prepayment of Term Borrowings shall be allocated as directed by the Parent Borrower to the Tranche A Term Borrowings, Tranche B Term Borrowings and/or Tranche C Term Borrowings.

(c) Each optional prepayment shall be applied to the installments thereof, first to any remaining scheduled installments due prior to the first anniversary of the date of such prepayment (applied pro rata to such remaining installments) and, second, to the remaining scheduled installments due on or after the first anniversary of the date of such prepayment (applied pro rata to such remaining installments). Each mandatory prepayment allocated to the Tranche A Term Borrowings, the Tranche B Term Borrowings or the Tranche C Term Borrowings shall, subject to Section 2.11(c), be applied pro rata to the remaining installments thereof.

SECTION 2.13 Fees. (a) The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of each Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Commitment terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the date hereof. Commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees in respect of the Revolving Commitments, (i) the Domestic Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Domestic Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose) and (ii) the Global Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Global Revolving Loans of such Lender.

(b) Each Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Domestic Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit,

which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate as interest on Eurocurrency Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Domestic Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the applicable Issuing Lender a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of 0.20% per annum on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Domestic Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as such Issuing Lender’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Domestic Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Domestic Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within 10 days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For the purposes of calculating the average daily amount of the LC Exposure for any period under this Section 2.13(b), the average daily amount of the Alternative Currency LC Exposure for such period shall be calculated by multiplying (x) the average daily balance of each Alternative Currency Letter of Credit (expressed in the currency in which such Alternative Currency Letter of Credit is denominated) by (y) the Exchange Rate for each such Alternative Currency in effect on the last Business Day of such period or by such other reasonable method that the Administrative Agent deems appropriate.

(c) Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between such Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(d) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the applicable Issuing Lender, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.14 Interest. (a) ABR Loans shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) Eurocurrency Loans shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by any Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section (or, in the case of amounts denominated in a Qualified Foreign Global Currency the rate that would apply to Loans in such currency pursuant to clause (i) above), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Domestic Revolving Availability Period or Global Revolving Availability Period, as applicable), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate, and interest in respect of sterling-denominated Loans, shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.15. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing:

(a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period;

(b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Facility Lenders under the relevant Facility that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period; or

(c) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans comprising such Borrowing and in the currency in which such Loans are to be denominated are not generally available in the relevant market;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Parent Borrower and the relevant Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Parent Borrower and the relevant Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, then, in the case of the relevant Facility, any request by a Borrower for a Eurocurrency Borrowing of the affected Type or in the affected currency, or a conversion to or continuation of a Eurocurrency Borrowing of the affected Type or in the affected currency, pursuant to Section 2.3 or 2.7, shall be deemed rescinded; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.

SECTION 2.16. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or

(ii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Lender or the London (or other relevant) interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the net cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then each relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or Issuing Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the relevant Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the computation of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the relevant Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Such Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof. All amounts payable by any Borrower pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be deemed to constitute interest expense in respect of the Loans.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies such Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.17. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period (or, in the case of Canadian B/As, the Canadian Contract Period) applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Revolving Loan or Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(e) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment of any Eurocurrency Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period (or, in the case of Canadian B/As, the Canadian Contract

Period) applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Parent Borrower pursuant to Section 2.20, then, in any such event, the relevant Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurocurrency Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period (or, in the case of Canadian B/As, the Canadian Contract Period) therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period or Canadian Contract Period, as applicable, for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the relevant currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the relevant market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the relevant Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and shall be so delivered as promptly as reasonably practicable after such Lender obtains actual knowledge of such amount. Such Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.18. Taxes (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Parent Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes; provided that if a Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) such Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and indemnify the Lender from and against any Other Taxes and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto.

(c) Each Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of a Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to a Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and shall be so delivered as promptly as reasonably practicable after such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, obtains actual knowledge of such amount.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Borrower to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender that is not a United States person within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement either:

(A) two duly completed and signed original copies of either Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (relating to such Non-U.S. Lender and entitling it to a complete exemption from or reduction of withholding of United States federal income taxes on all amounts to be received by such Non-U.S. Lender pursuant to this Agreement and the other credit documents), or successor and related applicable forms, as the case may be (including, where applicable any such forms required to be provided to certify to such exemption on behalf of such Non-U.S. Lender’s beneficial owners).

(B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not a “Bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and that does not comply with the requirements of clause (A) hereof, (x) a statement in the form of Exhibit F (and any similar statements required to certify to the exemption of its beneficial owners) or such other form of statement as shall be reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower from time to time to the effect that such Non-U.S. Lender (and, where applicable, its beneficial owners) is eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of United States federal income taxes under Code Section 871(h) or 881(c), and (y) two duly completed and signed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or successor and related applicable forms (including, where applicable, copies of such forms with respect to such entity’s beneficial owners).

Further, each Non-U.S. Lender agrees (i) to deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and if applicable, the assigning Lender two further duly completed and signed original copies of such Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as the case may be (and, where applicable, any such forms on behalf of its beneficial owners) or successor and related applicable forms, on or before the date that any such form expires or becomes obsolete and promptly after the occurrence of any event requiring a change from the most recent form(s) previously delivered by it to the Parent Borrower in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations, (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that delivers a statement in the form of Exhibit F (or such other form of statement as shall have been requested by the Parent Borrower), to deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and if applicable, the assigning Lender, such statement (and where applicable, any such statements from its beneficial owners) on the two year anniversary of the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender became a party to this Agreement and to deliver promptly to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent, such additional statements and forms as shall be reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower from time to time, and (iii) to notify promptly the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent if it (or, as applicable, its beneficial owners) is no longer able to deliver, or if it is required to withdraw or cancel, any form of statement previously delivered by it pursuant to this Section 2.18(e). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) no Non-U.S. Lender shall be required to provide any forms, certification or documentation which it is not legally entitled or able to deliver and (y) no Canadian Lender shall be required to provide any Internal Revenue Service forms pursuant to this Section 2.18(e).

(f) Each Lender which is not a Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver to Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and if applicable the assigning or participating Lender) two copies of a statement which shall contain the address of such Lender’s office or place of business in the United States, which shall be signed by an authorized officer of such Lender, together with two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or applicable successor form) unless it establishes to the satisfaction of the Parent Borrower that it is otherwise eligible for an exemption from backup withholding tax or other applicable withholding tax. Each such Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and Administrative Agent two further duly completed and signed forms and statements (or successor form) at or before the time any such form or statement becomes obsolete.

(g) Each Non-U.S. Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Borrower from and against any Taxes imposed by or on behalf of the United States or any taxing jurisdiction thereof, penalties, additions to tax, fines, interest or other liabilities, costs or losses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) incurred or payable by such Borrower as a result of the failure of such Borrower to comply with its obligations to deduct or withhold any Taxes imposed by or on behalf of the United States or any taxing jurisdiction thereof (including penalties, additions to tax, fines or interest on such Taxes) from any payments made pursuant to this Agreement to such Non-U.S. Lender or the Administrative Agent which failure resulted from (i) such Borrower’s reliance on Exhibit F pursuant to Section 2.18(e) or (ii) such Lender being a “conduit entity” within the meaning of Treasury Reg. Section 1.881-3 or any successor provision thereto; and, provided additionally, that, without limitation, no amounts shall be due and owing to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.18 if either provisions (i) or (ii) are applicable.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender receives a refund in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by a Borrower, which in the reasonable good faith judgment of such Lender is allocable to such payment, it shall promptly pay such refund, together with any other amounts paid by such Borrower in connection with such refunded Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, to such Borrower, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Lender incurred in obtaining such refund, provided, however, that each Borrower agrees to promptly return such refund to the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender as the case may be, if it receives notice from the Administrative Agent or applicable Lender that such Administrative Agent or Lender is required to repay such refund.

SECTION 2.19. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.16, 2.17 or 2.18, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, local time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at its Administrative Office, except as otherwise expressly provided herein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, each such payment (other than principal of and interest on Qualified Global Currency Loans and LC Disbursements denominated in an Alternative Currency, which shall be made in the applicable Qualified Global Currency or, except as otherwise specified in Section 2.5(e), Alternative Currency, as the case may be) shall be made in Dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary 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 Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower 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 Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders (or any of them) hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the relevant Lenders the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each relevant Lender severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender 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 Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds in the relevant currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error).

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Issuing Lender, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.20. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.16, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any

Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, then such Lender 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, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.18, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.16, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then such 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 Section 9.4), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Borrower or the Parent Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld and (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or such Borrower (in the case of all other amounts). A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling a Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 2.21. Change in Law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if, after the date hereof, (a) any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, or any Global Revolving Lender to make Global Revolving Loans denominated in a Qualified Global Currency, or any Canadian Lender to accept Canadian B/As, or (b) there shall have occurred any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions (including the imposition of or any change in exchange controls) or currency exchange rates that would make it impracticable for any Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit denominated in such Alternative Currency for the account of a Borrower, or any Global Revolving Lender to make Global Revolving Loans denominated in a Qualified Global Currency, or any Canadian Lender to accept Canadian B/As, then by prompt written notice thereof to the Parent Borrower and to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (i) such Issuing Lender may declare that Letters of Credit will not thereafter be issued by it in the affected Alternative Currency or Alternative Currencies, whereupon the affected Alternative Currency or Alternative Currencies shall be deemed (for the duration of such declaration) not to constitute an Alternative Currency for purposes of the issuance of Letters of Credit by such Issuing Lender, (ii) such Global Revolving Lender may declare that Global Revolving Loans will not thereafter be made by it in the affected Qualified Global Currency or Qualified Global Currencies, whereupon the affected Qualified Global Currency or Qualified Global Currencies shall be deemed (for the duration of such declaration) not to constitute a Qualified Global Currency for purposes of the making of Global Revolving Loans by such Global Revolving Lender and (iii) the commitment of such Canadian Lender hereunder to accept Canadian B/As and continue Canadian B/As as such shall forthwith be cancelled (for the duration of such declaration) and such Lender’s Canadian B/As, if any, shall (on the respective last days of the then current Canadian Contract Periods or within such earlier period as required by law) be converted automatically to Eurocurrency Borrowings having an Interest Period of one month.

SECTION 2.22. Foreign Subsidiary Borrowers. Subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower may designate any Foreign Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Subsidiary, the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent and upon such delivery such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and a party to this Agreement until the Parent Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower and a party to this Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, no Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower at a time when any principal of or interest on any Loan to such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding hereunder, provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s right to make further borrowings under this Agreement.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Parent Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that:

SECTION 3.1. Organization; Powers. Each of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted in all material respects and (c) except where the failure to do so, in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required.

SECTION 3.2. Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions to be entered into by each Loan Party are within such Loan Party’s corporate powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate and, if required, stockholder action.

ARTICLE VIII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent 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 of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. For the purposes of Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Quebec and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Canadian Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in its capacity as agent and holder of a power of attorney of each such Canadian Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

The bank 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 such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.2), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated

to or obtained by the bank serving as 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 with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.2) or 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 written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Parent Borrower or a Lender, and 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 any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the 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 believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent 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 be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for any Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each 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.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor to the Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Parent Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Parent Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no 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, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by any Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Parent Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.3 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 it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective affiliates 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 also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or any of their respective affiliates 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 related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Neither the Syndication Agent nor any Documentation Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder in its capacity as such.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the written consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of or subordinate the principal of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive, excuse or subordinate any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) require any Lender to make Loans having an Interest Period of one year or longer, without the written consent of such Lender, (v) reduce the amount of Net Proceeds required to be applied to prepay Loans under this Agreement, without the written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders under each Facility, (vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Agreement in any manner that would change the application of mandatory prepayments hereunder without the written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of each Facility adversely affected thereby, (vii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.12 without the written consent of the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of each Facility adversely affected thereby, (viii) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be), (ix) release or subordinate all or substantially all of the Guarantees from the Guarantors under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender, or (x) release or subordinate all or substantially all of the Liens of the Security Documents on the Collateral (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender.

(c) In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Parent Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Tranche B Term Loans or all outstanding Tranche C Term Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement “B” or “C” term loan tranche hereunder (“Replacement Term Loans”), provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (b) the Applicable Rate for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be

higher than the Applicable Rate for such Refinanced Term Loans, (c) the weighted average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing and (d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.

SECTION 9.3. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Parent Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent, with statements with respect to the foregoing to be submitted to the Parent Borrower prior to the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date (in the case of amounts to be paid on the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date) and from time to time thereafter on a quarterly basis or such other periodic basis as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate, (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

(b) The Parent Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory 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 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.

(c) To the extent that the Parent Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or

(b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (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, such Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Exposures, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time; provided that in the case of amounts owing to any Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, in each case in its capacity as such, a Lender’s “pro rata” share shall be determined based solely upon its share of the sum of Domestic Revolving Exposures and unused Domestic Revolving Commitments at the time.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower shall assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than 15 days after written demand therefor. Statements payable by the Parent Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be sent to Attention of Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer (Telephone No. 000-000-0000) (Telecopy No. 704-752-7487), at the address of the Parent Borrower set forth in Section 9.1, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Parent Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.4. Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that a Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by a Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate, each of the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent must give their prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment to an assignee in respect of any Revolving Facility which does not have a commitment in respect of such Revolving Facility immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not (x) in the case of an assignment of a Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loan or Tranche A Term Loan, be less than $5,000,000, and (y) in the case of an assignment of a Tranche B Term Loan or a Tranche C Term Loan, be less than $1,000,000, unless the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, (iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an

Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, (iv) the assignee, if not already a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire, (v) no assignment of Global Revolving Commitments or Global Revolving Loans may be made to an assignee that cannot make Loans in each of the Qualified Global Currencies (other than Canadian dollars) and (vi) no assignment of Canadian Commitments or Canadian Dollar Loans may be made to an assignee that cannot make Loans in each of the Qualified Global Currencies; and provided further that any consent of any Borrower otherwise required under this paragraph shall not be required if an Event of Default under paragraph (a), (b), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing. Any such assignment need not be ratable as among the Facilities. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18 and 9.3). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section.

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Parent Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans (whether or not evidenced by a promissory note) and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and each 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.

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee is already a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. Any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a promissory note shall be registered as to both principal and interest on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the promissory note evidencing such loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance, and thereupon one or more new promissory notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee and the old promissory notes shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Parent Borrower marked “cancelled”.

(e) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the 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) each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. In no event shall any Participant under any such participation have any right to approve

any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees payable hereunder, or postpone the date of the final maturity of the Loans, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.16, 2.17 and 2.18 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section, provided that, in the case of Section 2.18, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.8 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.19(c) as though it were a Lender.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 or 2.18 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 Parent Borrower’s prior written consent.

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that any foreclosure or similar action by such pledgee or assignee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 9.4 concerning assignments; and provided, further that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. In the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans, such Lender may, without the consent of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, assign or pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and/or pledge all or any portion of any instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement to any trustee for, or any other representative of, holders of obligations owed or securities issued, by such fund, as security for such obligations or securities; provided that any foreclosure or similar action by such trustee or representative shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 9.4 concerning assignments.

SECTION 9.5. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.16, 2.17, 2.18 and 9.3 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.6. Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Document and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent 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. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto (including the Lenders) and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.7. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 9.8. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of a Borrower against any of and all the obligations of a Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 9.9. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, (i) any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court and (iii) any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.1. In addition, each Foreign Subsidiary Borrower agrees that service of process may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Parent Borrower at its address for notices in

Section 9.1. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 9.10. Acknowledgements. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

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

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

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

SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Related Parties, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (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 Governmental Authority or rating agency, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, 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 any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (g) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in Hedging Agreements or other swap agreements relating to this Agreement or such counterparty’s professional advisor, (h) with the consent of the Parent Borrower, and (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than a Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Borrower relating to a Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by such Borrower; provided that such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. 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.

SECTION 9.13. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT

OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 9.14. Release of Collateral. On the first date (the “Release Date”) on which the outstanding Indebtedness under this Agreement is rated “Baa3” or better by Xxxxx’x and “BBB-” or better by S&P, so long as no Event of Default exists on such date, all Collateral (other than Pledged Stock (as defined in each of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement)) shall be released from the Liens created by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (all such released Collateral being the “Released Collateral”), all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Released Collateral shall revert to the Loan Parties. At the request and sole expense of any Loan Party following any such release, the Collateral Agent shall deliver to such Loan Party any Released Collateral held by the Collateral Agent under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, and execute and deliver to such Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

SECTION 9.15. Amendment of Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. Each party hereto, by its execution and delivery of this Agreement or an Addendum in the form of Exhibit E, hereby consents to the amendment to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement provided for in the Consent and Confirmation.

SECTION 9.16. Judgment Currency. (a) The Borrowers’ obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to make payments in a specified currency (the “Obligation Currency”) shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Obligation Currency, except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Administrative Agent or a Lender of the full amount of the Obligation Currency expressed to be payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Loan Party in any court or in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into or from any currency other than the Obligation Currency (such other currency being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in the Obligation Currency, the conversion shall be made, at the rate of exchange (as quoted by the Administrative Agent or if the Administrative Agent does not quote a rate of exchange on such currency, by a known dealer in such currency designated by the Administrative Agent) determined, in each case, as of the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which the judgment is given (such Business Day being hereinafter referred to as the “Judgment Currency Conversion Date”).

(b) If there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Currency Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount due, the Borrowers covenant and agree to pay, or cause to be paid, such additional amounts, if any (but in any event not a lesser amount), as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial award at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Currency Conversion Date.

(c) For purposes of determining any rate of exchange or currency equivalent for this Section, such amounts shall include any premium and costs payable in connection with the purchase of the Obligation Currency.

SECTION 9.17. Effect of Amendment and Restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement. On the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date, the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended and restated in its entirety. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (a) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, whether executed and delivered in connection herewith or otherwise, do not constitute a novation, payment and reborrowing, or termination of the “Obligations” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) under the Existing Credit Agreement as in effect prior to the Amendment/Restatement Effective Date and which remain outstanding, (b) such “Obligations” are in all respects continuing (as amended and restated hereby), (c) the Liens and security interests as granted under the Security Documents securing payment of such “Obligations” are in all respects continuing and in full force and effect and (d) references in the Security Documents to the “Credit Agreement” shall be deemed to be references to this Agreement, and to the extent necessary to effect the foregoing, each such Security Document is hereby deemed amended accordingly.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed by their respective authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
