ARTICLE II

THE CREDITS

2.1. Commitments; Loans.Revolving Loans. From and including the Closing Date and prior to the Termination Date, upon the satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 4.1 and 4.2, as applicable, each Lender severally and not jointly agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to (i) make Revolving Loans to the Borrower from time to time and (ii) participate in Facility LCs issued upon the request of the Borrower, in each case in an amount not to exceed in the aggregate at any one time outstanding of its Pro Rata Share of the Available Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment; provided that, unless caused by a Collateral Protection Advance, at no time shall the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure hereunder exceed the Borrowing Base and at no time shall the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Loans at any time prior to the Termination Date. The commitment of each Lender to lend hereunder shall automatically expire on the Termination Date. Each LC Issuer will issue Facility LCs hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth in Section 2.19.

2.1.2 Collateral Protection Advances. Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Agent is authorized by the Borrower and the Lenders, from time to time in the Agent’s sole discretion, (i) during the existence of a Default or an Unmatured Default, or (ii) at any time that any of the other conditions precedent set forth in Article IV have not been satisfied, to make Advances (each such advance to be a Floating Rate Advance) to the Borrower on behalf of the Lenders in an aggregate amount outstanding at any time not to exceed $75,000,000 which the Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems necessary or desirable (A) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (B) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Secured Obligations, or (C) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including costs, fees, and expenses as described in Section 9.6 (any of such Advances are herein referred to as “Collateral Protection Advances”); provided that the Required Lenders may at any time revoke the Agent’s authorization to make Collateral Protection Advances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Agent’s receipt thereof. Absent such revocation, the Agent’s determination that the making of a Collateral Protection Advance is required for any such purposes shall be conclusive. The Collateral Protection Advances shall be secured by the Liens in favor of the Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Secured Obligations hereunder. Each Lender shall participate in each Collateral Protection Advance in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share thereof. No Collateral Protection Advance shall be made

hereunder if the result thereof causes (i) the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure to exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment or (ii) any Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment.

2.1.3 Making of Non-Ratable Loans. If the Agent elects to have the terms of this Section 2.1.3 apply to a Floating Rate Advance requested by the Borrower in order to fund such Floating Rate Advance pursuant to this Section 2.1.3 instead of Section 2.7, the Non-Ratable Lender shall make a Floating Rate Advance in the amount requested available to the Borrower on the applicable Borrowing Date by transferring same day funds to the Borrower’s funding account. Each Advance made solely by the Non-Ratable Lender pursuant to this Section 2.1.3 is referred to in this Agreement as a “Non-Ratable Loan,” and such Advances are referred to as the “Non-Ratable Loans.” Each Non-Ratable Loan shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to other Advances funded by the Lenders, except that all payments thereon shall be payable to the Non-Ratable Lender solely for its own account. The Agent shall not request the Non-Ratable Lender to make any Non-Ratable Loan if (A) the Agent has received written notice from any Lender that one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IV will not be satisfied on the requested Borrowing Date for the applicable Non-Ratable Loan, or (B) the requested Non-Ratable Loan exceeds the Available Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment (before giving effect to such Non-Ratable Loan) or would cause the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure (after giving effect to such Non-Ratable Loan) to exceed the Borrowing Base on the applicable Borrowing Date, or would cause the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure (after giving effect to such Non-Ratable Loan) to exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment on the applicable Borrowing Date. The Non-Ratable Loans shall be secured by the Liens granted to the Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Secured Obligations hereunder. All Non-Ratable Loans shall be Floating Rate Advances. Each Lender shall participate in each Non-Ratable Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share thereof.

2.2. Required Payments; Termination.

2.2.1 Generally. Any outstanding Advances and all other unpaid Secured Obligations shall be paid in full by the Borrower on the Termination Date. Notwithstanding the termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments under this Agreement on the Termination Date, until all of the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been fully paid and satisfied and all financing arrangements among the Borrower and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been terminated, all of the rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall survive. In addition to the other mandatory prepayments required under this Agreement, if at any time and for any reason, including, without limitation, as a result of the reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment or a fluctuation of the Borrowing Base, the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure exceeds the Borrowing Base, the Borrower shall immediately make a mandatory prepayment of the Secured Obligations in an amount equal to such excess.

2.2.2 Asset Sales; Insurance Proceeds. Upon the consummation by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any sale of any Property constituting Collateral (other than sales permitted under Sections 6.12.1, 6.12.2 and 6.12.15), in each case except to the extent that the Net Cash Proceeds of such sale, when combined with the Net Cash Proceeds of all such sales during the immediately preceding twelve-month period, do not exceed $75,000,000 for any such sale or series of related sales, within three (3) Business Days after the Borrower’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from any such sale, or upon the Borrower’s receipt of Net Cash Proceeds under any insurance policy covering Collateral (but in no event under any insurance policy not covering Collateral) as contemplated in Section 6.24, the Borrower shall make a mandatory

prepayment of the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans in the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds. Such mandatory prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Sections 2.2.3 and 2.2.5.

2.2.3 Application to Revolving Loans. With respect to each prepayment of Revolving Loans elected by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.6 or required by this Section 2.2, the Borrower may designate (i) the Types of Revolving Loans that are to be prepaid and the specific Advance(s) pursuant to which made and (ii) the Revolving Loans to be prepaid; provided, that (x) Eurodollar Loans may be designated for prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.2 only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto unless all Eurodollar Loans with Interest Periods ending on such date of required prepayment and all Floating Rate Loans have been paid in full; (y) each prepayment of any Revolving Loans made pursuant to an Advance shall be applied pro rata among such Revolving Loans; and (z) notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding clause (y), at the option of the Borrower, no prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.6 or this Section 2.2 of Revolving Loans shall be applied to Revolving Loans of any Defaulting Lender. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.4.

2.2.4 Effect on Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. No prepayment described in Sections 2.2.2 shall result in a reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and the Borrower may request an Advance immediately after such prepayment so long as the terms and conditions hereunder for an Advance have been satisfied.

2.2.5 Application and Priority of Mandatory Prepayments. The Borrower shall remit a prepayment to the Agent in the amount of any Net Cash Proceeds described in Section 2.2.2 on the dates required under such Sections. The Agent shall deposit such prepayment in a Collection Account or another cash collateral account subject to the Agent’s sole control and shall apply such prepayment to the Revolving Loans for application in accordance with Section 2.2.3. Any portion of such prepayment remaining thereafter shall be returned to the Borrower for general corporate purposes.

2.3. Ratable Loans; Types of Advances. (a) Each Advance hereunder (other than a Non-Ratable Loan or a Collateral Protection Advance) shall consist of Revolving Loans made from the several Lenders ratably in proportion to the ratio that their respective Revolving Loan Commitments bear to the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment.

(b) The Advances may be Floating Rate Advances or Eurodollar Advances, or a combination thereof, selected by the Borrower in accordance with Sections 2.7 and 2.8, or Non-Ratable Loans selected by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.1.3.

2.4. Commitment Fee; Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment; Ticking Fee.

2.4.1 Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, from and after the Closing Date until the date on which the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall be terminated in whole, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) accruing daily at the rate of the then Applicable Fee Rate on the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment minus the Aggregate Outstanding Revolving Loan Credit Exposure, each as in effect from time to time. All such Commitment Fees payable hereunder shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Payment Date.

2.4.2 Closing Fees. The Borrower shall pay on the Closing Date those closing fees described in the fee letter dated November 30, 2012 by and between the Borrower and the Agent, as amended or modified from time to time.

2.4.3 Reductions in Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. (a) The Borrower may permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment to $0 at any time, and the Borrower may permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment from time to time in integral multiples of $10,000,000. Any such permitted reduction may only occur upon at least three (3) Business Days’ written notice to the Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of any such reduction, provided, however, that the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment may not be reduced below the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure. All accrued Commitment Fees shall be payable on the effective date of any termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Credit Extensions hereunder and on the final date upon which all Loans are repaid. No other optional reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment by the Borrower is permitted hereunder except in accordance with this Section 2.4.3.

(b) In the event that the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall have increased in accordance with Section 2.22, but subject to the last proviso of the first sentence of Section 8.2, the Borrower shall offer to permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment by the First Required Commitment Reduction Offer Amount on or prior to the date that is eighteen (18) months after the Increase Effective Date and by the Second Required Commitment Reduction Offer Amount on or prior to the second anniversary of the Increase Effective Date. The Borrower shall provide at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of any offer to reduce the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.4.3(b), and the Agent shall notify the Lenders in writing of the Borrower’s offer of a reduction of their Revolving Loan Commitments according to their Pro Rata Shares. Each Lender shall have two (2) Business Days from the date the Agent transmits such offer to accept (each such Lender, an “Accepting Lender”) or decline (each such Lender, a “Declining Lender”, and the aggregate amount of such proposed reduction declined by the Declining Lenders, the “Declined Amount”) such reduction in its Revolving Loan Commitment. Any Lender that does not respond within the two (2) Business Days of transmission of the offer shall be deemed to have accepted the reduction in its Revolving Loan Commitment. In the event that the Declined Amount is greater than $0, the Agent will promptly notify each Accepting Lender of the amount of such Declined Amount and of such Lender’s ratable portion of such Declined Amount (based on such Lender’s Pro Rata Share but excluding the Pro Rata Shares of Declining Lenders). Any such Accepting Lender may elect, by delivering not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed reduction date a written notice, that such Accepting Lender’s ratable portion of such Declined Amount not be applied to reduce such Accepting Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment, in which case the portion of such Declined Amount which has not been accepted by the Accepting Lenders shall instead be retained by such Declining Lenders ratably (based on such Lender’s Pro Rata Share but excluding the Pro Rata Shares of Accepting Lenders) and the offered reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall be decreased by such portion of the Declined Amount (such amount the “Aggregate Declined Offered Amount”). On each date on which the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment is reduced in accordance with this Section 2.4.3(b), the Borrower shall repay the Loans in an amount necessary to ensure that the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure does not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments, with such payment being applied on such date to the Loans held by the Accepting Lenders in accordance with their ratable shares of the reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment on such date (and no portion of such payment being applied to the Loans held by the Declining Lenders). For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not limit the Borrower’s ability to increase the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to Section 2.20.1.

2.4.4 Ticking Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the account of each Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment that will increase on the Increase Effective Date pursuant to Section 2.22, from and after March 31, 2013 until the Increase Effective Date, a ticking fee (the “Ticking Fee”) in an amount equal to (i) (x) for the period beginning on March 31, 2013 and ending on the earlier of (A) the Increase Effective Date and (B) June 29, 2013, ½ (one-half) of the Applicable Fee Rate in effect for the Commitment Fee during such period, and (y) if the Increase Effective Date has not occurred on or prior to June 30, 2013, for the period beginning on June 30, 2013 and ending on the earlier of (A) the Increase Effective Date and (B) August 7, 2013, the Applicable Fee Rate in effect for the Commitment Fee during such period, multiplied by (ii) the excess of (x) such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment as of the Increase Effective Date (as set forth on the Commitment Schedule) over (y) such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment as in effect from time to time. All such Ticking Fees payable hereunder to such increasing Lenders shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each Payment Date, and on the Increase Effective Date.

2.5. Minimum Amount of Each Advance. Each Eurodollar Advance shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 (and in multiples of $500,000 if in excess thereof), and each Floating Rate Advance (other than an Advance to repay Non-Ratable Loans or Collateral Protection Advances) shall be in the minimum amount of $100,000 (and in multiples of $50,000 if in excess thereof), provided, however, that any Floating Rate Advance may be in the amount of the Available Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment.

2.6. Optional Principal Payments. The Borrower may from time to time pay, without penalty or premium, all outstanding Floating Rate Advances, or any portion of the outstanding Floating Rate Advances. The Borrower may from time to time pay, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4 but without penalty or premium, all outstanding Eurodollar Advances, or, in a minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or any integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, any portion of the outstanding Eurodollar Advances upon three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent. Such prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.2.3.

2.7. Method of Selecting Types and Interest Periods for New Advances. Whenever the Borrower desires to incur Revolving Loans hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Type of Advance and, in the case of each Eurodollar Advance, the Interest Period applicable thereto from time to time; provided that there shall be no more than eight (8) Interest Periods in effect with respect to all of the Loans at any time, unless such limit has been waived by the Agent in its sole discretion. The Borrower shall give the Agent irrevocable notice (a “Borrowing Notice”) not later than 12:00 noon (Chicago time) on the Borrowing Date of each Floating Rate Advance (other than a Non-Ratable Loan) and three (3) Business Days before the Borrowing Date for each Eurodollar Advance, specifying:

(ii)	the aggregate amount of such Advance,


(iii)	the Type of Advance selected, and


(iv)	in the case of each Eurodollar Advance, the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on each Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make available its Loan or Loans in Federal or other funds immediately available to the account of Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Agent will promptly make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the Borrower by crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Agent.

2.8. Conversion and Continuation of Outstanding Advances; No Conversion or Continuation of Eurodollar Advances After Default. Floating Rate Advances (other than Non-Ratable Loans) shall continue as Floating Rate Advances unless and until such Floating Rate Advances are converted into Eurodollar Advances pursuant to this Section 2.8 or are repaid in accordance with Section 2.6. Each Eurodollar Advance shall continue as a Eurodollar Advance until the end of the then applicable Interest Period therefor, at which time such Eurodollar Advance shall be automatically converted into a Floating Rate Advance unless (x) such Eurodollar Advance is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.6 or (y) the Borrower shall have given the Agent a Conversion/Continuation Notice (as defined below) requesting that, at the end of such Interest Period, such Eurodollar Advance continue as a Eurodollar Advance for the same or another Interest Period. Subject to the terms of Section 2.5, the Borrower may elect from time to time to convert all or any part of an Advance of any Type (other than a Non-Ratable Loan) into any other Type or Types of Advances; provided that any conversion of any Eurodollar Advance shall be made on, and only on, the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.8, during the continuance of a Default or an Unmatured Default, the Agent may (or shall at the direction of the Required Lenders), by notice to the Borrower, declare that no Advance may be made, converted or continued as a Eurodollar Advance. The Borrower shall give the Agent irrevocable notice (a “Conversion/Continuation Notice”) of each conversion of an Advance or continuation of a Eurodollar Advance not later than 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) at least one (1) Business Day, in the case of a conversion into a Floating Rate Advance, or three (3) Business Days, in the case of a conversion into or continuation of a Eurodollar Advance, prior to the date of the requested conversion or continuation, specifying:


(i)	the requested date, which shall be a Business Day, of such conversion or continuation,


(ii)	the aggregate amount and Type of the Advance which is to be converted or continued, and


(iii)	the amount of such Advance which is to be converted into or continued as a Eurodollar Advance and the duration of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

2.9. Changes in Interest Rate, etc. Each Floating Rate Advance (other than a Non-Ratable Loan) shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof, for each day from and including the date such Advance is made or is automatically converted from a Eurodollar Advance into a Floating Rate Advance pursuant to Section 2.8, to but excluding the date it is paid or is converted into a Eurodollar Advance pursuant to Section 2.8, at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate for such day. Changes in the rate of interest on that portion of any Advance maintained as a Floating Rate Advance will take effect simultaneously with each change in the Alternate Base Rate. Each Eurodollar Advance shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from and including the first day of the Interest Period applicable thereto to (but not including) the last day of such Interest Period at the Eurodollar Rate determined by the Agent as applicable to such Eurodollar Advance based upon the Borrower’s selections under Sections 2.7 and 2.8 and otherwise in accordance with the terms hereof. No Interest Period with respect to Revolving Loans may end after the Termination Date.

2.10. Rates Applicable After Default. (a) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), the Agent or the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 8.2 requiring unanimous consent of the Lenders to changes in interest rates), declare that such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto plus 2% per annum or (ii) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, the Floating Rate in effect from time to time plus 2% per annum and (b) if all or a portion of

any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any commitment fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), (i) such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Floating Rate plus 2% per annum and (ii) the LC Fee shall be increased by 2% per annum, in each case, with respect to clauses (a) and (b) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before judgment).

2.11. Method of Payment; Settlement.

2.11.1 Method of Payment. All payments of the Obligations hereunder shall be made, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim, in immediately available funds to the Agent at the Agent’s address specified pursuant to Article XIII, or at any other Lending Installation of the Agent specified in writing by the Agent to the Borrower, by 12:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date when due and shall (except in the case of Reimbursement Obligations for which the applicable LC Issuer has not been fully indemnified by the Lenders, or as otherwise specifically required hereunder) be applied ratably by the Agent among the Lenders. Each payment delivered to the Agent for the account of any Lender shall be delivered promptly by the Agent to such Lender in the same type of funds that the Agent received at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII or at any Lending Installation specified in a notice received by the Agent from such Lender. The Agent is hereby authorized to charge the account of the Borrower maintained with JPMorgan for each payment of the Obligations as it becomes due hereunder. Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 6.25, the Agent is also hereby authorized to charge each Collection Account into which Receivables collections and other proceeds of Collateral are deposited. Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 6.25, the Agent shall apply such amounts on a daily basis to reduce outstanding Obligations. For purposes of computing interest, fees and the Available Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment as of any date, (x) all amounts constituting immediately available goods funds shall be deemed received by the Agent on the Business Day on which such amounts are deposited into one of the aforementioned Collection Accounts maintained with JPMorgan or an Affiliate thereof, and (y) all amounts not constituting immediately available good funds shall be deemed received by the Agent on the first Business Day following the Business Day on which such amounts are deposited into one of the aforementioned Collection Accounts maintained with JPMorgan or an Affiliate thereof. In the event any such amount is applied and the payment item evidencing such amount is subsequently dishonored, returned for insufficient funds, required to be returned to the applicable Account Debtor, or required to be remitted to a Person other than the Agent or a Lender, the Obligations shall be increased by the amount originally applied in reduction thereof and interest shall be deemed to have accrued on such amount from the Business Day on which such amount was originally credited as a reduction of the Obligations through the Business Day on which such amount is repaid. The Borrower shall also be required to pay any fees that would have accrued during such period had such amount not been deemed paid during such period. Each reference to the Agent in this Section 2.11 shall also be deemed to refer, and shall apply equally, to each LC Issuer in the case of payments required to be made by the Borrower to such LC Issuer pursuant to Section 2.19.6.

2.11.2 Settlement. (a) Each Lender’s funded portion of any Advance is intended by the Lenders to be equal at all times to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Advance; provided, however, that for purposes of this Section 2.11.2 and all other applicable provisions of this Agreement, only Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments shall participate in Collateral Protection Advances and Non-Ratable Loans in amounts equal to their respective Pro Rata Shares thereof. Notwithstanding such agreement, the Agent, the Non-Ratable Lender (with respect to the Non-Ratable Loans), and the Lenders agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of or

enforceable by the Borrower) that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among them as to any Advance, including the Non-Ratable Loans and the Collateral Protection Advances, shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with this Section 2.11.2.

(b) The Agent shall request settlement (a “Settlement”) with the Lenders on at least a weekly basis, or on a more frequent basis at the Agent’s election, (A) on behalf of the Non-Ratable Lender, with respect to each outstanding Non-Ratable Loan, (B) for itself, with respect to each Collateral Protection Advance, and (C) with respect to collections received, in each case, by notifying the Lenders of such requested Settlement by telephone or facsimile, no later than 12:30 p.m. (Chicago time) on the date of such requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). Each Lender (other than the Non-Ratable Lender, in the case of the Non-Ratable Loans, and the Agent in the case of the Collateral Protection Advances) shall transfer the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Advances with respect to which Settlement is requested to the Agent, to such account of the Agent as the Agent may designate, not later than 2:30 p.m. (Chicago time), on the Settlement Date applicable thereto. Settlements may occur during the existence of a Default or an Unmatured Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IV have then been satisfied. Such amounts transferred to the Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the applicable Non-Ratable Loan or Collateral Protection Advance and, together with the portion of such Non-Ratable Loan or Collateral Protection Advance representing the Non-Ratable Lenders or the Agent’s Pro Rata Share thereof, shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Lenders, respectively. If any such amount is not transferred to the Agent by any Lender on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Alternate Base Rate for the first three (3) days from and after the Settlement Date and thereafter at the then applicable Floating Rate (1) on behalf of the Non-Ratable Lender with respect to each outstanding Non-Ratable Loan and (2) for itself with respect to each Collateral Protection Advance.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, not more than one (1) Business Day after demand is made by the Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or an Unmatured Default and regardless of whether the Agent has requested a Settlement with respect to a Non-Ratable Loan or Collateral Protection Advance), each other Lender (A) shall irrevocably and unconditionally purchase and receive from the Non-Ratable Lender or the Agent, as applicable, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Non-Ratable Loan or Collateral Protection Advance equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Non-Ratable Loan or Collateral Protection Advance, and (B) if Settlement has not previously occurred with respect to such Non-Ratable Loans or Collateral Protection Advances, upon demand by the Agent or the Non-Ratable Lender, as applicable, shall pay to the Agent or the Non-Ratable Lender, as applicable, as the purchase price of such participation an amount equal to 100% of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Non-Ratable Loans or Collateral Protection Advances. If such amount is not in fact transferred to the Agent or the Non-Ratable Lender, as applicable, by any Lender, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Alternate Base Rate for the first three (3) days from and after such demand and thereafter at the then applicable Floating Rate.

(d) From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender purchases an undivided interest and participation in any Non-Ratable Loan or Collateral Protection Advance pursuant to Section 2.11.2(c), the Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Agent in respect of such Non-Ratable Loan or Collateral Protection Advance.

(e) Between Settlement Dates, to the extent no Collateral Protection Advances are outstanding, the Agent may pay over to the Non-Ratable Lender any payments received by the Agent, which in accordance with the terms of this Agreement would be applied to the reduction of the Revolving Loans, for application to the Non-Ratable Lender’s Revolving Loans including Non-Ratable Loans. If, as of any Settlement Date, collections received since the then immediately preceding Settlement Date have been applied to the Non-Ratable Lender’s Revolving Loans (other than to Non-Ratable Loans or Collateral Protection Advances in which a Lender has not yet funded its purchase of a participation pursuant to Section 2.11.2(c)), as provided for in the previous sentence, the Non-Ratable Lender shall pay to the Agent for the accounts of the Lenders, to be applied to the outstanding Revolving Loans of such Lenders, an amount such that each Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have, as of such Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans. Subject to Section 2.11.1, during the period between Settlement Dates, the Non-Ratable Lender with respect to Non-Ratable Loans, the Agent with respect to Collateral Protection Advances, and each Lender with respect to the Revolving Loans other than Non-Ratable Loans and Collateral Protection Advances, in each case ratably in accordance with the funds employed by each of them, shall be entitled to interest at the applicable rate or rates payable under this Agreement on the actual average daily amount of funds employed by the Non-Ratable Lender, the Agent, and the other Lenders.

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

(ii)

The Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (a) the date and the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period (in the case of a Eurodollar Advance) with respect thereto, (b) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (c) the original stated amount of each Facility LC and the amount of LC Obligations outstanding at any time, (d) the effective date and amount of each Assignment Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and the parties thereto pursuant to Section 12.3, (e) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof, and (f) all other appropriate debits and credits as provided in this Agreement, including, without limitation, all fees, charges, expenses and interest.

(iii)

The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (i) and (ii) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of the Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(iv)

Any Lender may request that its Revolving Loans be evidenced by a promissory note in substantially the form of Exhibit E (a “Note”). In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender the appropriate Note payable to the order of such Lender. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (prior to any assignment pursuant to Section 12.3) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein, except to the extent that any such Lender subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in paragraphs (i) and (ii) above.

2.13. Telephonic Notices. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lenders and the Agent to extend, convert or continue Advances, effect selections of Types of Advances and to transfer funds based on telephonic notices made by any person or persons the Agent or any Lender in good faith believes to be acting on behalf of the Borrower, it being understood that the foregoing authorization is specifically intended to allow Borrowing Notices and Conversion/Continuation Notices to be given telephonically. The Borrower agrees to deliver promptly to the Agent a written confirmation, signed by an Authorized Officer, if such confirmation is requested by the Agent or any Lender, of each telephonic notice. If the written confirmation differs in any material respect from the action taken by the Agent and the Lenders, the records of the Agent and the Lenders shall govern absent manifest error.

2.14. Payments of Interest.

2.14.1 Interest Payment Dates; Interest and Fee Basis. With respect to all Advances, interest shall be payable as follows. Interest accrued on each Floating Rate Advance shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and at maturity, whether due to acceleration or otherwise. Interest accrued on each Eurodollar Advance shall be payable on the last day of its applicable Interest Period, on any date on which the Eurodollar Advance is prepaid, whether by acceleration or otherwise, and at maturity. Interest accrued on each Eurodollar Advance having an Interest Period longer than three months shall also be payable on the last day of each three-month interval during such Interest Period. Interest on Eurodollar Advances, LC Fees and all other fees hereunder shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360-day year. Interest on Floating Rate Advances shall be calculated for actual days elapsed on the basis of a 365/366-day year. Interest shall be payable for the day an Advance is made but not for the day of any payment (unless payment is on the same date as the Advance) on the amount paid if payment is received prior to 12:00 p.m. (Chicago time) at the place of payment. If any payment of principal of or interest on an Advance, any fees or any other amounts payable to the Agent or any Lender hereunder shall become due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a principal payment, such extension of time shall be included in computing interest, fees and commissions in connection with such payment.

2.14.2 Limitation on Interest. The Borrower, the Agent and the Holders of Secured Obligations intend to strictly comply with all applicable laws, including applicable usury laws. Accordingly, the provisions of this Section 2.14.2 shall govern and control over every other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which conflicts or is inconsistent with this Section 2.14.2, even if such provision declares that it controls. As used in this Section 2.14.2, the term “interest” includes the aggregate of all charges, fees, benefits, or other compensation which constitute interest under applicable law, provided that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) any non-principal payment shall be characterized as an expense or as compensation for something other than the use, forbearance, or detention of money and not as interest and (b) all interest at any time contracted for, reserved, charged, or received shall be amortized, prorated, allocated, and spread, in equal parts during the full term of the Secured Obligations. In no event shall the Borrower or any other Person be obligated to pay, or any Holder of Secured Obligations have any right or privilege to reserve, receive, or retain, (i) any interest in excess of the maximum amount of nonusurious interest permitted under the laws of the State of New York or the applicable laws (if any) of the U.S. or of any other applicable state or (ii) total interest in excess of the amount which such Holder of Secured Obligations could lawfully have contracted for, reserved, received, retained, or charged had the interest been calculated for the full term of the Secured Obligations at the Highest Lawful Rate. On each day, if any, that the interest rate (the “Stated Rate”) called for under this Agreement or any other Loan Document exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the rate at which interest shall accrue shall

automatically be fixed by operation of this sentence at the Highest Lawful Rate for that day, and shall remain fixed at the Highest Lawful Rate for each day thereafter until the total amount of interest accrued equals the total amount of interest which would have accrued if there were no such ceiling rate as is imposed by this sentence. Thereafter, interest shall accrue at the Stated Rate unless and until the Stated Rate again exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate when the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence shall again automatically operate to limit the interest accrual rate. The daily interest rates to be used in calculating interest at the Highest Lawful Rate shall be determined by dividing the applicable Highest Lawful Rate per annum by the number of days in the calendar year for which such calculation is being made. None of the terms and provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document which directly or indirectly relate to interest shall ever be construed without reference to this Section 2.14.2, or be construed to create a contract to pay for the use, forbearance, or detention of money at an interest rate in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate. If the term of any Secured Obligation is shortened by reason of acceleration of maturity as a result of any Default or by any other cause, or by reason of any required or permitted prepayment, and if for that (or any other) reason any Holder of Secured Obligations at any time, including but not limited to, the stated maturity, is owed or receives (and/or has received) interest in excess of interest calculated at the Highest Lawful Rate, then and in any such event all of any such excess interest shall be canceled automatically as of the date of such acceleration, prepayment, or other event which produces the excess, and, if such excess interest has been paid to such Holder of Secured Obligations, it shall be credited pro tanto against the then outstanding principal balance of the Borrower’s obligations to such Holder of Secured Obligations, effective as of the date or dates when the event occurs which causes it to be excess interest, until such excess is exhausted or all of such principal has been fully paid and satisfied, whichever occurs first, and any remaining balance of such excess shall be promptly refunded to its payor. Chapter 346 of the Texas Finance Code (which regulates certain revolving credit accounts (formerly Tex. Rev. Civ. Stat. Xxx. Art. 0000, Xx. 15)) shall not apply to this Agreement or to any Loan, nor shall this Agreement or any Loan be governed by or be subject to the provisions of such Chapter 346 in any manner whatsoever.

2.15. Notification of Advances, Interest Rates, Prepayments and Revolving Loan Commitment Reductions; Availability of Loans. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment reduction notice, Borrowing Notice, Conversion/Continuation Notice, and repayment notice received by it hereunder. Promptly after notice from the applicable LC Issuer, the Agent will notify each Lender of the contents of each request for issuance of a Facility LC hereunder. The Agent will notify the Borrower and each Lender of the interest rate applicable to each Eurodollar Advance promptly upon determination of such interest rate and will give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice of each change in the Alternate Base Rate. Not later than 2:00 p.m. (Chicago time) on each Borrowing Date, each Lender shall make available its Loan or Revolving Loans in funds immediately available in Chicago to the Agent at its address specified pursuant to Article XIII. The Agent will promptly make the funds so received from the Lenders available to the Borrower at the Agent’s aforesaid address.

2.16. Lending Installations. Each Lender may book its Loans and its participation in any LC Obligations and other Obligations and each LC Issuer may book its Facility LCs at any Lending Installation selected by such Lender or such LC Issuer, as applicable, and may change its Lending Installation from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Lending Installation and the Loans, Facility LCs, and participations in LC Obligations and other Obligations, and any Notes issued hereunder shall be deemed held by each Lender or the relevant LC Issuer, for the benefit of any such Lending Installation. Each Lender and each LC Issuer may, by written notice to the Agent and the Borrower in accordance with Article XIII, designate replacement or additional Lending Installations

through which Loans will be made by it or Facility LCs will be issued by it and for whose account Loan payments or payments with respect to Facility LCs are to be made.

2.17. Non-Receipt of Funds by the Agent. Unless the Borrower or a Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Agent prior to the date (or time, with respect to a Lender making proceeds of Floating Rate Advances available) on which it is scheduled to make payment to the Agent of (i) in the case of a Lender, the proceeds of a Loan or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, a payment of principal, interest or fees to the Agent for the account of the Lenders, that it does not intend to make such payment, the Agent may assume that such payment has been made. The Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the amount of such payment available to the intended recipient in reliance upon such assumption. If such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, has not in fact made such payment to the Agent, the recipient of such payment shall, on demand by the Agent, repay to the Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was so made available by the Agent until the date the Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of payment by a Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate for such day for the first three (3) days and, thereafter, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan or (y) in the case of payment by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Loan.

2.18. Replacement of Lender. If (i) the Borrower is required pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 to make any additional payment to any Lender or if any Lender’s obligation to make or continue, or to convert Floating Rate Advances into, Eurodollar Advances shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.3, (ii) any Lender refuses to consent to certain proposed amendments, modifications, waivers, discharges or terminations with respect to this Agreement that require the consent of all Lenders (or all affected Lenders) pursuant to Section 8.2 and the same have been approved by the Required Lenders or (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or becomes subject to the penultimate paragraph of Section 2.21 (any Lender described in clause (i), clause (ii) or clause (iii) being an “Affected Lender”), the Borrower may elect to terminate or replace the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Affected Lender, provided that no Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such termination or replacement, and provided further that, concurrently with such termination or replacement, (i) if the Affected Lender is being replaced, another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Outstanding Credit Exposure of the Affected Lender pursuant to an Assignment Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit C and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Affected Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section 12.3 applicable to assignments, and (ii) the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Lender in immediately available funds on the day of such replacement (A) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Affected Lender by the Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Affected Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5, and (B) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 3.4 had the Loans of such Affected Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender, in each case to the extent not paid by the purchasing lender and (iii) if the Affected Lender is being terminated, the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Lender all Obligations due to such Affected Lender (including the amounts described in the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii) plus the outstanding principal balance of such Affected Lender’s Credit Extensions).

2.19. Facility LCs.

2.19.1 Issuance. Each LC Issuer hereby agrees, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, to issue standby and commercial letters of credit (each, a “Facility LC”) and to renew, extend, increase, decrease or otherwise modify each Facility LC (“Modify,” and each such action, a “Modification”), from time to time from and including the Closing Date and prior to the

Termination Date upon the request of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor; provided that immediately after each such Facility LC is issued or Modified, (i) the aggregate amount of the outstanding LC Obligations shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, (ii) the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Borrowing Base and (iii) the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment. Any reference in this Section 2.19 to a request for a Facility LC by the Borrower shall be deemed to include requests by any Subsidiary Guarantor. The Borrower agrees that it is obligated to satisfy any amount arising under or in connection with Facility LCs issued hereunder at the request of any Subsidiary Guarantor, including, without limitation, all Reimbursement Obligations, and that no Facility LC requested by any such Person shall be issued hereunder unless all conditions to issuance have been satisfied. No Facility LC other than Extended Facility LCs issued pursuant to Section 2.19.13 shall have an expiry date later than the earlier of (x) the fifth (5^th) Business Day prior to the Termination Date and (y) one year after its issuance; provided, however, that any Facility LC with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods that do not extend beyond the date referenced in clause (x) hereof. Schedule 2.19.1 sets forth certain letters of credit issued under the Prior Credit Agreement. Subject to the satisfaction on the Closing Date of the conditions precedent set forth in Sections 4.1 and 4.2, such letters of credit shall constitute, on and after the Closing Date, Facility LCs and shall be subject to and benefit from this Agreement.

2.19.2 Participations. Upon the issuance or Modification by an LC Issuer of a Facility LC in accordance with this Section 2.19, such LC Issuer shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably sold to each Lender with a Revolving Commitment, and each such Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from such LC Issuer, a participation in such Facility LC (and each Modification thereof) and the related LC Obligations in proportion to its Pro Rata Share thereof.

2.19.3 Notice. Subject to Section 2.19.1, the Borrower shall give the applicable LC Issuer notice prior to 12:00 noon (Chicago time) at least one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed date of issuance or Modification of the applicable Facility LC, specifying the beneficiary, the proposed date of issuance (or Modification) and the expiry date of such Facility LC, and describing the proposed terms of such Facility LC and the nature of the transactions proposed to be supported thereby. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable LC Issuer shall promptly notify the Agent, and the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender, of the contents thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Lenders’ aggregate participation in such proposed Facility LC. The issuance or Modification by the applicable LC Issuer of a Facility LC shall, in addition to the conditions precedent set forth in Article IV (the satisfaction of which the applicable LC Issuer shall have no duty to ascertain), be subject to the conditions precedent that such Facility LC shall be satisfactory to the applicable LC Issuer and that the Borrower shall have executed and delivered such application agreement and/or such other instruments and agreements relating to such Facility LC as the applicable LC Issuer shall have reasonably requested (each, a “Facility LC Application”). In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of any Facility LC Application, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

2.19.4 LC Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments (or, if the Revolving Loan Commitments have terminated, Outstanding Revolving Loan Credit Exposure) ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, with respect to issued and outstanding Facility LCs, a letter of credit fee at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Loans in

effect from time to time on the maximum stated amount under such Facility LCs, with such fee to be payable in arrears on each Payment Date. The Borrower shall also pay to the applicable LC Issuer for its own account (x) on the first Payment Date to occur after the issuance of a Facility LC issued by such LC Issuer, a fronting fee in an amount equal to 0.10% per annum times the face amount of such Facility LC, and (y) documentary and processing charges in connection with the issuance, amendment, cancellation, negotiation, transfer, or other Modification of and draws under Facility LCs in accordance with such LC Issuer’s standard schedule for such charges as in effect from time to time. Each fee described in this Section 2.19.4 shall constitute an “LC Fee”.

2.19.5 Administration; Reimbursement by Lenders. Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Facility LC of any demand for payment under such Facility LC, the applicable LC Issuer shall notify the Agent and the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and each other Lender as to the amount to be paid by such LC Issuer as a result of such demand and the proposed payment date (the “LC Payment Date”). The responsibility of the applicable LC Issuer to the Borrower and each Lender shall be only to determine that the documents (including each demand for payment) delivered under each Facility LC issued by such LC Issuer in connection with such presentment shall be in conformity in all material respects with such Facility LC. Each LC Issuer shall endeavor to exercise the same care in the issuance and administration of its Facility LCs as it does with respect to letters of credit in which no participations are granted, it being understood that in the absence of any gross negligence or willful misconduct by such LC Issuer, each Lender shall be unconditionally and irrevocably liable without regard to the occurrence of any Default or any condition precedent whatsoever, to reimburse such LC Issuer on demand for (i) such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of each payment made by such LC Issuer under each Facility LC issued by it to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19.6 below, plus (ii) interest on the foregoing amount to be reimbursed by such Lender, for each day from the date of such LC Issuer’s demand for such reimbursement (or, if such demand is made after 11:00 a.m. (Chicago time) on such date, from the next succeeding Business Day) to the date on which such Lender pays the amount to be reimbursed by it, at a rate of interest per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate for the first three (3) days and, thereafter, at a rate of interest equal to the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances. The Lenders shall be reimbursed for any payment required under this Section 2.19.5 to the extent of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any payment made by the Borrower as required under Section 2.19.6.

2.19.6 Reimbursement by Borrower. The Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse each LC Issuer on or before the applicable LC Payment Date for any amounts to be paid by such LC Issuer upon any drawing under any Facility LC, issued by it, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind; provided that neither the Borrower nor any Lender shall hereby be precluded from asserting any claim for direct (but not consequential) damages suffered by the Borrower or such Lender to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (i) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC issued by it complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (ii) such LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC issued by it after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the submission of a Borrowing Notice in compliance with Section 2.7 and the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IV), the Borrower may request an Advance hereunder for the purpose of satisfying any Reimbursement Obligation. All such amounts paid by such LC Issuer and remaining unpaid by the Borrower, shall bear interest payable on demand, for each day until paid at a rate per annum equal to (x) the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls on or before the applicable LC Payment Date and (y) the

sum of 2% plus the rate applicable to Floating Rate Advances for such day if such day falls after such LC Payment Date. The Agent and each LC Issuer will pay to each Lender ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share all amounts received by it from the Borrower for application in payment, in whole or in part, of the Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC issued by it, but only to the extent such Lender has made payment to such LC Issuer in respect of such Facility LC pursuant to Section 2.19.5.

2.19.7 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.19 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had against any LC Issuer, any Lender or any beneficiary of a Facility LC. The Borrower further agrees with each LC Issuer and the Lenders that the LC Issuers and the Lenders shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligation in respect of any Facility LC shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even if such documents should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower, any of its Affiliates, the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any financing institution or other party to whom any Facility LC may be transferred or any claims or defenses whatsoever of the Borrower or of any of its Affiliates against the beneficiary of any Facility LC or any such transferee. No LC Issuer shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Facility LC. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by any LC Issuer or any Lender under or in connection with each Facility LC and the related drafts and documents, if done without gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding upon the Borrower and shall not put any LC Issuer or any Lender under any liability to the Borrower. Nothing in this Section 2.19.7 is intended to limit the right of the Borrower to make a claim against the applicable LC Issuer for damages as contemplated by the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.19.6.

2.19.8 Actions of LC Issuers. Each LC Issuer shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any Facility LC issued by it, draft, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, cablegram, telegram, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by such LC Issuer. Each LC Issuer shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement unless it shall first have received such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it reasonably deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.19, each LC Issuer shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon the Lenders and any future holders of a participation in any Facility LC.

2.19.9 Indemnification. The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender required to participate in Facility LCs under Section 2.19.2, each LC Issuer and the Agent, and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees from and against any and all claims and damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which such Lender, such LC Issuer or the Agent may incur (or which may be claimed against such Lender, such LC Issuer or the Agent by any Person whatsoever) by reason of or in connection with the issuance, execution and delivery or transfer of or payment or failure to pay under any Facility LC or any actual or

proposed use of any Facility LC, including, without limitation, any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses which such LC Issuer may incur by reason of or in connection with (i) the failure of any other Lender to fulfill or comply with its obligations to such LC Issuer hereunder (but nothing herein contained shall affect any rights the Borrower may have against any Defaulting Lender) or (ii) by reason of or on account of such LC Issuer issuing any Facility LC which specifies that the term “Beneficiary” included therein includes any successor by operation of law of the named Beneficiary, but which Facility LC does not require that any drawing by any such successor Beneficiary be accompanied by a copy of a legal document, satisfactory to the applicable LC Issuer, evidencing the appointment of such successor Beneficiary; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify any Lender, any LC Issuer or the Agent for any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs or expenses to the extent, but only to the extent, caused by (x) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such LC Issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Facility LC complied with the terms of such Facility LC or (y) such LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC issued by it after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC. Nothing in this Section 2.19.9 is intended to limit the obligations of the Borrower under any other provision of this Agreement.

2.19.10 Lenders’ Indemnification. Each Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its Pro Rata Share indemnify each LC Issuer, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except such as result from such indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct or such LC Issuer’s failure to pay under any Facility LC issued by it after the presentation to it of a request strictly complying with the terms and conditions of such Facility LC) that such indemnitees may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 2.19 or any action taken or omitted by such indemnitees hereunder.

2.19.11 Facility LC Collateral Account. Subsequent to the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, or at any time the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure exceeds the Borrowing Base, or at any time the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, the Borrower agrees that it will, upon the request of the Agent or the Required Lenders and until the final expiration date of any Facility LC and thereafter as long as any amount is payable to any LC Issuer or the Lenders in respect of any Facility LC, maintain a special collateral account pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Agent (the “Facility LC Collateral Account”) at the Agent’s office at the address specified pursuant to Article XIII, in the name of the Borrower but under the sole dominion and control of the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders and in which the Borrower shall have no interest other than as set forth in Section 8.1. The Borrower hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the LC Issuers, a security interest in all of the Borrower’s right, title and interest in and to all funds which may from time to time be on deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account to secure the prompt and complete payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. The Agent will invest any funds on deposit from time to time in the Facility LC Collateral Account in certificates of deposit of JPMorgan having a maturity not exceeding thirty (30) days. Nothing in this Section 2.19.11 shall either obligate the Agent to require the Borrower to deposit any funds in the Facility LC Collateral Account or limit the right of the Agent to release any funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account in each case other than as required by Section 8.1.

2.19.12 Rights as a Lender. In its capacity as a Lender, each LC Issuer shall have the same rights and obligations as any other Lender.

2.19.13 Extended Facility LCs. The Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor may request that an LC Issuer allow, and an LC Issuer may (in its sole discretion, subject to terms and conditions acceptable to such LC Issuer, including relating to reimbursement and indemnity) agree to allow, one or more Facility LCs issued by it to expire later than the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Termination Date. Any such Facility LC is referred to herein as an “Extended Facility LC”. The following provisions shall apply to any Extended Facility LC, notwithstanding any contrary provision set forth herein.

(i)

The participations of each Lender in each Extended Facility LC shall terminate at the close of business on the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Termination Date, with the effect that Lenders shall not have any obligations to acquire participations in any Facility LC and the related LC Obligations thereafter or otherwise with respect to such Extended Facility LC, except with respect to demands for drawings submitted on or prior to such date.

(ii)

On or prior to the date that is fifteen (15) days prior to the Termination Date, the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall deposit with each LC Issuer an amount in cash (or other credit support approved by such LC Issuer in its sole discretion) equal to one hundred and three percent (103%) of the LC Obligations as of such date attributable to the Extended Facility LCs issued by such LC Issuer for the account of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable. Each such deposit shall be held by the applicable LC Issuer in an account maintained by it as collateral for the obligations of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, in respect of such Extended Facility LCs. Each applicable LC Issuer 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 request of the Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, (and at the risk and expense of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable) and subject to the agreement of the relevant LC Issuer (not to be unreasonably withheld), 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 relevant LC Issuer to reimburse any payment by an LC Issuer in respect of such Extended Facility LCs issued for the account of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, for which such LC Issuer has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of any reimbursement obligations of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, for such LC Issuer’s LC Exposure at such time and, to the extent of any excess over such LC Issuer’s LC Exposure at such time, returned to the Borrower or Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable.

(iii)

After the close of business on the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Termination Date, the fees that would have accrued pursuant to Section 2.19.4 (if the participations of the Lenders in the Extended Facility LCs had not terminated) shall continue to accrue on the LC Obligations in respect of each Extended Facility LC and shall be payable to each applicable LC Issuer for its own account.

2.20. Increase of Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment.

2.20.1 The Borrower may from time to time request that the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment be increased so long as the aggregate amount of the requested increase, together with any previous increases of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.20, does not exceed $1,000,000,000 plus the total amount, if any, that the Aggregate

Revolving Loan Commitment shall have been reduced in accordance with Section 2.4.3(b); provided, however, that upon any such request, the Borrower shall demonstrate, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Agent, that such increase will not breach the terms of any of the indentures referenced in Section 9.17; provided, further, however, that (x) each requested increase shall be in an amount equal to $10,000,000 or an incremental amount in excess thereof, and (y) an increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment hereunder may only be made at a time when no Unmatured Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom. The Agent may request an opinion of counsel from the Borrower in connection with any such increase.

2.20.2 The Borrower may increase the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments then in effect by increasing the Revolving Loan Commitment of a Lender or by causing a Person that at such time is not a Lender to become a Lender (an “Additional Lender”). If the Borrower elects to increase the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments by increasing the Revolving Loan Commitment of a Lender, the Borrower and such Lender shall execute and deliver to Agent a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-1 (a “Commitment Increase Certificate”). If the Borrower elects to increase the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments by causing an Additional Lender to become a party to this Agreement, in which event the Borrower and such Additional Lender shall execute and deliver to Agent a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-2 (an “Additional Lender Certificate”), together with an Administrative Questionnaire and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500. No increase hereunder shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Agent (no such consent to be unreasonably withheld).

2.20.3 No Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment shall be increased without the consent of such Lender.

2.20.4 On the effective date of any such increase, no Eurodollar Advance shall be outstanding or if any Eurodollar Advances are outstanding, then the effective date of such increase shall be the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Advance unless Borrower pays compensation required by Section 3.4.

2.20.5 Subject to the provisions of 2.20.2, 2.20.3, 2.20.4 and 2.20.6, from and after the effective date specified in the Commitment Increase Certificate or the Additional Lender Certificate (or if any Eurodollar Advances are outstanding, then the last day of the Interest Period in respect of such Eurodollar Advances, unless the Borrower has paid compensation required by Section 3.4): (i) the amount of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments shall be increased as set forth therein, and (ii) in the case of an Additional Lender Certificate, any Additional Lender party thereto shall be a party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Lenders are parties thereto and have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In addition, the Lender or the Additional Lender, as applicable, shall purchase a pro rata portion of the outstanding Loans (and participation interests in Non-Ratable Loans, LC Obligations and Collateral Protection Advances) of each of the other Lenders (and such Lenders hereby agree to sell and to take all such further action to effectuate such sale) such that each Lender (including any Additional Lender, if applicable) shall hold its Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans (and participation interests) after giving effect to the increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments.

2.20.6 Upon its receipt of a duly completed Commitment Increase Certificate or an Additional Lender Certificate, executed by the Borrower and the Lender or the Borrower and the Additional Lender party thereto, as applicable, the processing and recording fee, if any, referred to in Section 2.20.2, the Administrative Questionnaire referred to in Section 2.20.2, if applicable,

and the written consent of the Agent (no such consent to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Agent shall accept such Commitment Increase Certificate or Additional Lender Certificate and record the information contained therein in the Register required to be maintained by Agent pursuant to Section 12.3.4. No increase in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 2.20.6.

2.21. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.4.1;

(b) the Revolving Loan Commitment and Outstanding Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 8.2); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby;

(i)

so long as no Default or Unmatured Default is then outstanding, all or any part of the Non-Ratable Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares but only to the extent the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Outstanding Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Non-Ratable Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Loan Commitments;

(ii)

if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days following notice by the Agent (x) first, prepay such Non-Ratable Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the relevant LC Issuers only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8.1 for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;


(iii)	if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any letter of credit fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.19.4 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure are cash collateralized;


(iv)	if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.4.1 and Section 2.19.4 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares; and


(v)	if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any

rights or remedies of any LC Issuer or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.19.4 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the relevant LC Issuers until and to the extent that such LC Exposure are reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Non-Ratable Lender shall not be required to fund any Non-Ratable Loan and no LC Issuers shall be required to issue or Modify any Facility LC, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Loan Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.21(c), and participating interests in any newly made Non-Ratable Loan or any newly issued or increased Facility LC shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.21(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Parent of any Lender shall occur following the Closing Date and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Non-Ratable Lender or any LC Issuer has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Non-Ratable Lender shall not be required to fund any Non-Ratable Loan and no LC Issuer shall be required to issue or Modify any Facility LC, unless the Non-Ratable Lender or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to the Non-Ratable Lender or such LC Issuer, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Agent, the Borrower, each LC Issuer and the Non-Ratable Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Non-Ratable Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Lenders as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

2.22. Increase of Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment in Connection with BP Acquisition. The Revolving Loan Commitment of each Lender shall automatically be increased to the amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name on the Commitment Schedule under the heading “Commitment Schedule As Of The Increase Effective Date”, and the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment shall correspondingly be increased to an amount up to $3,000,000,000, in each case, on the date the following conditions precedent have been satisfied by the Borrower (such date, the “Increase Effective Date”); provided, that, if such conditions have not been satisfied by August 7, 2013, or if the BP Acquisition Agreement shall be terminated on or before such date, the Increase Effective Date shall not occur:(i) all necessary filings and notifications under the HSR Act in respect of the BP Acquisition shall have been made and the waiting period referred to in the HSR Act applicable to such acquisition, and any agreement with any Governmental Authority not to consummate such acquisition, shall have expired or been terminated;(ii) the Agent shall have received from the Borrower a certificate certifying that (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article V are true and correct in all material respects as of such date except (x) with respect to Sections 5.5 and 5.7, the representations and warranties set forth in such Sections shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of the most recent Form 10-K or Form 10-Q filing, as applicable, made by the Borrower with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and (y) with respect to any other representation and warranty set forth in Article V, to the extent such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, such representation or warranty shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date; provided that, in each case, any representation and warranty that is qualified as to

“materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct in all respects on the date of such credit extension or on such earlier date, as the case may be (after giving effect to such qualification), and (B) there exists no Default or Unmatured Default;

(iii) the BP Acquisition Agreement shall be in full force and effect; and

(iv) the Agent shall have received from the Borrower an Interim Collateral Report and such other evidence reasonably requested by the Agent to demonstrate that, among other things, Excess Availability on the Increase Effective Date, after giving effect to the increase of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and all Advances requested by the Borrower and to be made on the Increase Effective Date, equals or exceeds $750,000,000.

No failure by any Lender to consummate the increase in such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment on the Increase Effective Date will affect any other Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment on the Increase Effective Date.

ARTICLE III

YIELD PROTECTION; TAXES

3.1. Yield Protection. If any Change in Law:


(i)	subjects any Recipient to any taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or other charges on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto (other than (A) Taxes, (B) Other Taxes and (C) Excluded Taxes), or

(ii)

imposes or increases or deems applicable any reserve, liquidity, assessment, insurance charge, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or any LC Issuer (other than reserves and assessments taken into account in determining the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Advances), or

(iii)

imposes any other condition the result of which is to increase the cost to any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation of making, funding or maintaining its Revolving Loan Commitment or Eurodollar Loans or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs, or reduces any amount receivable by any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or any LC Issuer in connection with its Revolving Loan Commitment or Eurodollar Loans or Facility LCs (including participations therein), or requires any Lender or any applicable Lending Installation or any LC Issuer to make any payment calculated by reference to the amount of Revolving Loan Commitment or Eurodollar Loans or Facility LCs (including participations therein) held or interest or LC Fees received by it, by an amount deemed material by such Lender or any LC Issuer, as applicable,

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Agent, such Lender or applicable Lending Installation, such LC Issuer or any other Recipient of making or maintaining its Loans or Revolving Loan Commitment or of issuing or participating in Facility LCs, as applicable, or to reduce the return received by the Agent, such Lender or applicable Lending Installation, such LC Issuer or any other Recipient in connection with such Loans (in the case of clause (i), its Loans) or Revolving Loan Commitment, or Facility LCs (including participations therein), then, within fifteen (15) days of demand, accompanied by the written statement required by Section 3.6, by the Agent, such Lender or LC Issuer or such other Recipient, as applicable, the Borrower shall pay the Agent, such Lender or LC Issuer or

such other Recipient, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Agent, such Lender or LC Issuer for such increased cost or reduction in amount received.

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

3.3. Availability of Types of Advances. If (x) any Lender determines that maintenance of its Eurodollar Loans at a suitable Lending Installation would violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, or directive, whether or not having the force of law, or (y) the Required Lenders determine that (i) deposits of a type and maturity appropriate to match fund Eurodollar Advances are not available or (ii) the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Advances does not accurately reflect the cost of making or maintaining Eurodollar Advances, or (iii) no reasonable basis exists for determining the Eurodollar Base Rate, then the Agent shall suspend the availability of Eurodollar Advances and require any affected Eurodollar Advances to be repaid or converted to Floating Rate Advances on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law, subject to the payment of any funding indemnification amounts required by Section 3.4.

3.4. Funding Indemnification. If any payment of a Eurodollar Advance occurs on a date which is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period, whether because of acceleration, prepayment or otherwise, or a Eurodollar Advance is not made or continued, or a Floating Rate Advance is not converted into a Eurodollar Advance, on the date specified by the Borrower for any reason other than default by the Lenders, or a Eurodollar Advance is not prepaid on the date specified by the Borrower for any reason, the Borrower will indemnify each Lender for any loss or cost incurred by it resulting therefrom, including, without limitation, any loss or cost in liquidating or employing deposits acquired to fund or maintain such Eurodollar Advance.

3.5. Taxes. (i) All payments by the Borrower to or for the account of any Lender, any LC Issuer, or the Agent hereunder or under any Note shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes unless such deduction is required by law. If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender, any LC Issuer, or the Agent, (a) 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 3.5) such Lender, LC Issuer, or the Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (b) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (c) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (d) the Borrower shall furnish to the Agent the original copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or, if a receipt cannot be obtained with reasonable efforts, such other evidence of payment as is reasonably acceptable to the Agent, in each case within thirty (30) days after such payment is made.


(ii)	In addition, the Borrower shall pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes and any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any

payment made hereunder or under any Note or Facility LC Application or from the execution or delivery of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement, any Note or any Facility LC Application (“Other Taxes”).

(iii)

The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent, each LC Issuer, and each Lender for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed on amounts payable under this Section 3.5) paid by the Agent, such LC Issuer, or such Lender as a result of its Revolving Loan Commitment, any Credit Extensions made by it hereunder, or any Facility LC issued or participated in by it hereunder, or otherwise in connection with its participation in this Agreement and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. Payments due under this indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days of the date the Agent or such LC Issuer or such Lender makes demand therefor pursuant to Section 3.6.

(iv)

Each Lender that is a “United States person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent, not more than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (but in any event before a payment is due to it hereunder or under any other Loan Document) two properly completed and duly signed copies of a United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax. Each Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (each a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that it will, not more than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (but in any event before a payment is due to it hereunder or under any other Loan Document), (i) deliver to each of the Borrower and the Agent two duly completed copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, certifying in either case that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income or withholding taxes, or (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is fiscally transparent, deliver to the Agent a United States Internal Revenue Form W-8IMY together with the applicable accompanying forms, W-8 or W-9, as the case may be, and certify that it is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income or withholding tax. Each Non-U.S. Lender further undertakes to deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (x) renewals or additional copies of such form (or any successor form) on or before the date that such form expires or becomes obsolete, and (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent forms so delivered by it, such additional forms or amendments thereto as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent. All forms or amendments described in the preceding sentence shall certify that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document without deduction or withholding of any United States federal income or withholding taxes, unless an event (including without limitation any change in treaty, law or regulation) has occurred prior to the date on which any such delivery would otherwise be required which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender from duly completing and delivering any such form or amendment with respect to it and such Lender advises the Borrower and the Agent that it is not capable of receiving payments without any deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax.

(v)

For any period during which a Non-U.S. Lender has failed to provide the Borrower and the Agent with an appropriate form pursuant to clause (iv) above (unless such failure is due to a change in treaty, law or regulation, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided), such Non-U.S. Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under this Section 3.5 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States; provided that, should a Non-U.S. Lender which is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required under clause (iv) above, the Borrower shall take such steps as such Non-U.S. Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Non-U.S. Lender to recover such Taxes.

(vi)

Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document pursuant to the law of any relevant jurisdiction or any treaty shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate. Without limiting the foregoing, if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower and the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For purposes of this clause (vi), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date.

(vii)

Each Lender and each LC Issuer shall severally indemnify the Agent for any taxes, duties, levies, imposts, deductions, assessments, fees, withholdings or other charges (but, in the case of any Taxes or Other Taxes, only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Agent for such Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) attributable to such Lender or LC Issuer that are paid or payable by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses or liabilities arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such amounts were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 3.5(vii) shall be paid within ten (10) days after the Agent delivers to the applicable Lender or LC Issuer a certificate stating the amount so paid or payable by the Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 3.5(vii) shall survive the payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.


(viii)	If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.5 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.5), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the

extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 3.5 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (viii) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (viii), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (viii) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax or Other Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax or Other Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

3.6. Lender Statements; Survival of Indemnity. Each Lender shall deliver a written statement of such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) as to the amount due, if any, under Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5. Such written statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount and shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the amount owed. Determination of amounts payable under such Sections in connection with a Eurodollar Loan shall be calculated as though each Lender funded its Eurodollar Loan through the purchase of a deposit of the type, currency and maturity corresponding to the deposit used as a reference in determining the Eurodollar Rate applicable to such Loan, whether in fact that is the case or not. Unless otherwise provided herein, the amount specified in the written statement of any Lender shall be payable on demand after receipt by the Borrower of such written statement. The obligations of the Borrower under Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 shall survive payment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

3.7. Alternative Lending Installation. To the extent reasonably possible, each Lender shall designate an alternate Lending Installation with respect to its Eurodollar Loans to reduce any liability of the Borrower to such Lender under Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.5 or to avoid the unavailability of Eurodollar Advances under Section 3.3, so long as such designation is not, in the judgment of such Lender, reasonably disadvantageous to such Lender. A Lender’s designation of an alternative Lending Installation shall not affect the Borrower’s rights under Section 2.18 to replace a Lender.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Borrower represents and warrants to each Lender and the Agent as of each of (i) the Closing Date and (ii) each date as required by Section 4.2:

5.1. Existence and Standing. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is a corporation, partnership (in the case of Subsidiaries only) or limited liability company duly incorporated or organized, as the case may be, validly existing and (to the extent such concept applies to such entity) in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization and has all requisite authority to conduct its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted, except where the failure to be so qualified does not or would not be expected to cause or result in the occurrence of a Material Adverse Effect.

5.2. Authorization and Validity. Each of the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor has the power and authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Loan Documents to which the Borrower or each such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, is a party and to perform its obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery by each of the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor of the Loan Documents to which the Borrower or each such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, is a party and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly authorized by proper proceedings, and the Loan Documents to which the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, is a party constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, enforceable against the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as applicable, in accordance with their terms, except as

enforceability may be limited by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyances, reorganization or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally; (ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law); and (iii) requirements of reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing.

5.3. No Conflict; Government Consent. Neither the execution and delivery by the Borrower or the Subsidiary Guarantors, as applicable, of the Loan Documents, nor the consummation of the transactions therein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof will violate (i) any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree or award binding on the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors, or (ii) the Borrower’s or any Subsidiary Guarantor’s articles or certificate of incorporation, partnership agreement, certificate of partnership, articles or certificate of organization, by-laws, or operating agreement or other management agreement, as the case may be, or (iii) the provisions of any indenture, instrument or agreement to which the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors is a party or is subject, or by which it, or its Property, is bound, or conflict with, or constitute a default under, or result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien in, of or on the Property of the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the terms of, any such indenture, instrument or agreement except where such violation would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No order, consent, adjudication, approval, license, authorization, or validation of, or exemption by, any governmental or public body or authority, or any subdivision thereof, which has not been obtained by the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors, is required to be obtained by the Borrower or any of the Subsidiary Guarantors in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the borrowings under this Agreement, the payment and performance by the Borrower of the Obligations or the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents except where failure to obtain the same would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.5. Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2011, there has been no change in the business, Property, condition (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken together, which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.6. Taxes. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have filed all United States federal tax returns and all other tax returns which are required to be filed (except where failure to file such other tax returns would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect) and have paid all taxes due pursuant to said returns or pursuant to any assessment received by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, except in respect of such taxes, if any, as are being contested in good faith and as to which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with Agreement Accounting Principles and as to which no Lien exists (except as permitted by Section 6.15.2). The United States income tax returns of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries have been audited by the Internal Revenue Service through the fiscal year ended 2007.

5.7. Litigation and Contingent Obligations. There is no litigation, arbitration, governmental investigation, proceeding or inquiry pending or, to the knowledge of any of their officers, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which seeks to prevent, enjoin or delay the making of any Loans. Other than any liability incident to any litigation, arbitration or proceeding which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, the Borrower has no material contingent obligations not provided for or disclosed in the financial statements referred to in Section 5.4.

5.8. Subsidiaries. Schedule 5.8 contains an accurate list of all Subsidiaries of the Borrower as of the Closing Date, setting forth their respective jurisdictions of organization and the percentage of their respective capital stock or other ownership interests owned by the Borrower or other Subsidiaries. Schedule 5.8 also identifies those Subsidiaries that constitute Subsidiary Guarantors. All of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock or other ownership interests of such Subsidiaries have been (to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such ownership interests) duly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non-assessable.

5.9. ERISA. As of the Closing Date, the Unfunded Liabilities of all Single Employer Plans do not in the aggregate exceed $100,000,000. As of the Closing Date, each Plan complies with all minimum funding requirements under ERISA. Except as provided on Schedule 5.9, as of the Closing Date, neither the Borrower nor any member of the Controlled Group is party to a Multiemployer Plan or has, or would reasonably be expected to have, any liability to a Multiemployer Plan.

5.10. Accuracy of Information. The information, exhibits or reports furnished by the Borrower to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q do not contain any material misstatement of fact or omit to state a material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading. The information furnished by the Borrower in each Monthly Collateral Report and Interim Collateral Report is, to the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, accurate in all material respects.

5.11. Regulation U. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate of buying or carrying margin stock (as defined in Regulation U), and after applying the proceeds of each Credit Extension, margin stock (as defined in Regulation U) constitutes less than 25% of the value of those assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries which are subject to any limitation on sale, pledge, or any other restriction hereunder.

5.12. Material Agreements. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is in default in the performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or conditions contained in (i) any agreement or instrument to which it is a party, which default would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) any agreement or instrument evidencing or governing Material Indebtedness.

5.13. Compliance With Laws. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have complied with all applicable statutes, rules, regulations, orders and restrictions of any domestic or foreign government or any instrumentality or agency thereof having jurisdiction over the conduct of their respective businesses or the ownership of their respective Property, except where the failure to do so has not caused or resulted in the occurrence of a Material Adverse Effect.

5.14. Ownership of Properties. On the Closing Date, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries have good title, free of all Liens other than those permitted by Section 6.15, to all of the assets reflected in the Borrower’s most recent consolidated financial statements provided to the Agent, as owned by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

5.15. Plan Assets; Prohibited Transactions. The Borrower is not an entity deemed to hold “plan assets” within the meaning of 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA, of an employee benefit plan (as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA) which is subject to Title I of ERISA or any plan (within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Code), and neither the execution of this Agreement nor the making of Revolving Loans hereunder gives rise to a prohibited transaction within the meaning of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

5.16. Environmental Matters. In the ordinary course of its business, the officers of the Borrower consider the effect of Environmental Laws on the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, in the course of which they identify and evaluate potential risks and liabilities accruing to the Borrower due to Environmental Laws. On the basis of this consideration, the Borrower has concluded that, in its good faith determination, the risks and liabilities accruing to the Borrower due to Environmental Laws are not reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary has received any notice to the effect that its operations are not in material compliance with any of the requirements of applicable Environmental Laws or are the subject of any federal or state investigation evaluating whether any remedial action is needed to respond to a release of any Hazardous Material into the environment, which non-compliance or remedial action would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

5.17. Investment Company Act. Neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

5.18. Insurance. The Borrower maintains, and has caused each Subsidiary to maintain, with financially sound and reputable insurance companies, insurance on all their Property in such amounts, subject to such deductibles and self-insurance retentions and covering such properties and risks as is consistent with sound business practice. The Borrower has delivered to the Agent and the Lenders a complete and accurate list of its insurance policies and programs and the Property subject thereto as of the Closing Date. The Borrower has caused all such policies to be subject to provisions which prohibit the cancellation thereof by the provider thereof without at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Borrower and each loss payee thereof.

5.19. No Default or Unmatured Default. No Default or Unmatured Default has occurred and is continuing.

5.20. USA PATRIOT Act.

(a) Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, any of their respective Affiliates over which any of the foregoing exercises management control (each, a “Controlled Affiliate”) is a Prohibited Person, and the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, such Controlled Affiliates are in compliance with all applicable orders, rules and regulations of OFAC.

Such amounts shall reduce outstanding principal Obligations pursuant to the mandatory prepayment provision of Section 2.2.

Amounts and other items on deposit in Collection Accounts that are not maintained with JPMorgan or an Affiliate thereof shall be transferred at least once a week to one or more Collection Accounts maintained with JPMorgan or an Affiliate thereof. If any collections referred to in the first

sentence of this Section 6.25 are received by the Borrower, a Subsidiary, or any other Person, such collections shall be deemed to have been received by the Borrower, such Subsidiary or such other Person in trust for the Agent, and, upon the Borrower’s, such Subsidiary’s, or such other Person’s receipt thereof, the Borrower shall (or shall cause such Subsidiary or other Person to) promptly remit all of such collections, in their original form, for deposit into a Collection Account. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default, all amounts received by the Agent, all amounts on deposit in the Collection Accounts, and all amounts constituting collections required to be deposited into Collection Accounts shall be the sole property of the Agent for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations and shall be deemed received by the Agent for application to the Secured Obligations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, or anything to the contrary in Section 2.11.1, at all times that (i) no Default exists and (ii) Excess Availability equals or exceeds $300,000,000, amounts which are on deposit in Collection Accounts shall be released, in a manner mutually satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent, on a daily basis to the Borrower’s operating accounts maintained with JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, and such released amounts shall be automatically released from the Lien created by the Security Agreement and cease to be Collateral without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to such released amounts shall revert to the Borrower or applicable Subsidiary. In connection therewith, the Agent, at the request and sole expense of the Borrower, shall execute and deliver to the Borrower all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Lien on such released amounts.

6.26. Repayment of Indebtedness. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, make any amendment or modification to any indenture, note agreement or other agreement, document or instrument evidencing or governing Subordinated Indebtedness or directly or indirectly voluntarily prepay, defease, or in substance defease, purchase, redeem, retire, or otherwise acquire, any Indebtedness unless, with respect to a prepayment, defeasance, purchase, redemption, retirement or acquisition, immediately before and after giving effect thereto the Indebtedness Prepayments Conditions have been satisfied; provided that, regardless of whether Indebtedness Prepayment Conditions have been so satisfied, the Borrower shall be permitted to prepay or repay Indebtedness using the proceeds of Indebtedness incurred in accordance with the terms of the definition of Refinancing Indebtedness.

ARTICLE VIII

ACCELERATION, WAIVERS, AMENDMENTS AND REMEDIES

8.1. Acceleration. (i) If any Default described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 occurs with respect to the Borrower, the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder, and the obligation and power of the LC Issuers to issue Facility LCs shall automatically terminate and the Secured Obligations shall immediately become due and payable without any election or action on the part of the Agent, any LC Issuer, or any Lender. With respect to Facility LCs, the Borrower will be and become thereby unconditionally obligated, without any further notice, act or demand, to pay the Agent an amount in immediately available funds, which funds shall be held in the Facility LC Collateral Account, equal to the difference of (x) the amount of LC Obligations at such time less (y) the amount or deposit in the Facility LC Collateral Account at such time which is free and clear of all rights and claims of third parties and has not been applied against the Obligations (the “Collateral Shortfall Amount”). If any other Default occurs, the Required Lenders (or the Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) may (a) terminate or suspend the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans hereunder and the obligation and power of the LC Issuers to issue Facility LCs, or declare the Secured Obligations to be due and payable, or both, whereupon the Secured Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which the Borrower hereby expressly waives and (b) upon notice to the Borrower and in addition to the continuing right to demand payment of all amounts payable under this Agreement, make demand on the Borrower to pay, and the Borrower will forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act pay to the Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account.

(ii) If at any time while any Default is continuing, the Agent determines that the Collateral Shortfall Amount at such time is greater than zero, the Agent may (and, at the direction of the Required Lenders, shall) make demand on the Borrower to pay, and the Borrower will, forthwith upon such demand and without any further notice or act, pay to the Agent the Collateral Shortfall Amount, which funds shall be deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account.

(iii) The Agent may at any time or from time to time after funds are deposited in the Facility LC Collateral Account, apply such funds to the payment of the Secured Obligations and any other amounts as shall from time to time have become due and payable by the Borrower to the Lenders or the LC Issuers under the Loan Documents.

(iv) At any time while any Default is continuing, neither the Borrower nor any Person claiming on behalf of or through the Borrower shall have any right to withdraw any of the funds held in the Facility LC Collateral Account. After all of the Secured Obligations have been paid in full in cash and the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment has been terminated, any funds remaining in the Facility LC Collateral Account shall be returned promptly by the Agent to the Borrower or paid to whomever may be legally entitled thereto at such time.

(v) If, after acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations or termination of the obligations of the Lenders to make Loans and the obligation and power of the LC Issuers to issue Facility LCs hereunder as a result of any Default (other than any Default as described in Section 7.6 or 7.7 with respect to the Borrower) and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the Obligations due shall have been obtained or entered, the Required Lenders (in their sole discretion) shall so direct, the Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, rescind and annul such acceleration and/or termination.

8.2. Amendments. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and

the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Revolving Loan Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (provided that the Agent may make Collateral Protection Advances as set forth in Section 2.1.2), (ii) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any interest or fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (other than (x) a waiver of the application of the default rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.10 and (y) any reduction of the amount of or any modification of the payment date for the mandatory payments required under Section 2.2 (other than Section 2.2.1), in each case which shall only require the approval of the Borrower and the Required Lenders), (iii) postpone any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, or any date for the scheduled payment of any interest, fees or other Obligations payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Revolving Loan Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) change Section 11.1, 11.2 or 11.3 or the definition of “Pro Rata Share” in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) other than in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, release the Borrower from its obligations hereunder, without the consent of each Lender, (vii) other than as expressly provided in the definition of Borrowing Base with respect to Required Lenders approving an increase in percentages reduced during a Default, increase the advance rate percentages for Perfected Cash Interests, Eligible Receivables and/or Eligible Petroleum Inventory set forth in the definition of Borrowing Base as of the Closing Date without the consent of each Lender, (viii) other than in connection with a transaction permitted under this Agreement, release all or substantially all of the Collateral without the written consent of each Lender, (ix) other than in connection with a transaction permitted under this Agreement, release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the Guaranty or any other agreement pursuant to which such Guarantors guarantee the repayment of the Secured Obligations without the written consent of each Lender, (x) amend Section 2.19.13 in a manner that would alter the participation obligation of any Lender without the consent of such Lender or (xi) extend the date by which the Increase Effective Date must occur in Section 2.22 without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided, further, that, the provisions of Section 2.4.3(b) cannot be waived or amended without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (and, on the date of the corresponding reduction, (A) participation interests in Non-Ratable Loans, LC Obligations and Collateral Protection Advances shall be ratably reallocated, to the extent of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment in effect after giving effect to such reduction (without regard to whether the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 can then be satisfied) and (B) if the reallocation described in clause (A) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days following notice by the Agent (1) first, prepay the relevant Non-Ratable Exposure and Collateral Protection Advances and (2) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the relevant LC Issuers the balance of such LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (A) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8.1). No amendment of any provision of this Agreement relating to (a) the Agent shall be effective without the written consent of the Agent, (b) the Non-Ratable Lender or any Non-Ratable Loan shall be effective without the written consent of the Non-Ratable Lender and (c) any LC Issuer or any Facility LC shall be effective without the written consent of such LC Issuer. No amendment to Section 2.21 of this Agreement shall be effective without the written consent of the Non-Ratable Lender and each LC Issuer. The limit set forth in Section 2.1.2 on the aggregate amount of Collateral Protection Advances that may be outstanding at any time shall not be increased without the written consent of the Agent and the Lenders in the aggregate having 75% or more of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment; provided, however, that if all of the Revolving Loan Commitments have been terminated, the consent of Lenders holding 75% or more of the

Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure shall be required to approve any such increase.

The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

9.9. Severability of Provisions. Any provision in any Loan Document that is held to be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be inoperative, unenforceable, or invalid without affecting the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction or the operation, enforceability, or validity of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and to this end the provisions of all Loan Documents are declared to be severable.

9.10. Nonliability of Lenders. The relationship between the Borrower on the one hand and the Lenders, the LC Issuers, and the Agent on the other hand shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Agent, any Arranger, any LC Issuer, nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower. Neither the Agent, any Arranger, any LC Issuer, nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower’s business or operations. The Borrower agrees that neither the Agent, any Arranger, any LC Issuer, nor any Lender shall have liability to the Borrower (whether sounding in tort, contract or otherwise) for losses suffered by the Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, the transactions contemplated and the relationship established by the Loan Documents, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, unless it is determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that such losses resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party from which recovery is sought or any related Person. Neither the Agent, any Arranger, any LC Issuer, any Lender, the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall have any liability with respect to, and each such Person hereby waives, releases and agrees not to xxx for, any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages suffered by it in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

9.11. Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to hold any confidential information which it may receive from the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement in confidence, except for disclosure (i) to its Affiliates and to other Lenders and their respective Affiliates, for use solely in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) to legal counsel, accountants, and other professional advisors to such Lender or to a Transferee, in each case which have been informed as to the confidential nature of such information, (iii) to regulatory officials having jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or the National Association of Securities Dealers), (iv) to any Person as required by law, regulation, or legal process, (v) to any Person in connection with any legal proceeding to which such Lender is a party, (vi) to such Lender’s direct or indirect contractual counterparties in swap agreements or to legal counsel, accountants and other professional advisors to such counterparties, in each case which have been informed as to the confidential nature of such information, (vii) to credit insurance providers which have been informed as to the confidential nature of such information, so long as such credit insurance providers agree in writing to be bound by the requirements of this Section 9.11, and (viii) permitted by Section 12.4.

9.12. Lenders Not Utilizing Plan Assets. Each Lender represents and warrants that none of the consideration used by such Lender to make its Loans constitutes for any purpose of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code assets of any “plan” as defined in Section 3(3) of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and the rights and interests of such Lender in and under the Loan Documents shall not constitute such “plan assets” under ERISA.

9.13. Nonreliance. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking to any margin stock (as defined in Regulation U) as collateral in the extension or maintenance of the credit provided for herein.

9.14. Disclosure. The Borrower and each Lender, including each LC Issuer, hereby acknowledge and agree that each Lender and/or its Affiliates from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or have other relationships with the Borrower and its Affiliates.

9.15. Performance of Obligations. The Borrower agrees that the Agent may, but shall have no obligation to (i) at any time, pay or discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against any Collateral and (ii) after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default make any other payment or perform any act required of the Borrower under any Loan Document or take any other action which the Agent in its discretion deems necessary or desirable to protect or preserve the Collateral, including, without limitation, any action to (x) effect any repairs or obtain any insurance called for by the terms of any of the Loan Documents and to pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof and (y) pay any rents payable by the Borrower which are more than thirty (30) days past due, or as to which the landlord has given notice of termination, under any lease. The Agent shall use its best efforts to give the Borrower notice of any action taken under this Section 9.15 prior to the taking of such action or promptly thereafter provided the failure to give such notice shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect thereof. The Borrower agrees to pay the Agent, upon demand, the principal amount of all funds advanced by the Agent under this Section 9.15, together with interest thereon at the rate from time to time applicable to Floating Rate Loans from the date of such advance until the outstanding principal balance thereof is paid in full. If the Borrower fails to make payment in respect of any such advance under this Section 9.15 within one (1) Business Day after the date the Borrower receives written demand therefor from the Agent, the Agent shall promptly notify each Lender and each Lender agrees that it shall thereupon make available to the Agent, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such advance. If such funds are not made available to the Agent by such Lender within one (1) Business Day after the Agent’s demand therefor, the Agent will be entitled to recover any such amount from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day during the period commencing on the date of such demand and ending on the date such amount is received. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Agent its Pro Rata Share of any such unreimbursed advance under this Section 9.15 shall neither relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Agent such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such advance on the date such payment is to be made nor increase the obligation of any other Lender to make such payment to the Agent. All outstanding principal of, and interest on, advances made under this Section 9.15 shall constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral until paid in full by the Borrower.

9.16. Subordination of Intercompany Indebtedness. The Borrower agrees that any and all claims of the Borrower against any of its Subsidiaries that is a guarantor with respect to any “Intercompany Indebtedness” (as hereinafter defined), any endorser, obligor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Secured Obligations, or against any of its properties shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment, in full and in cash, of all Secured Obligations; provided that, and not in contravention of the foregoing, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing the Borrower may make loans to and receive payments in the ordinary course with respect to such Intercompany Indebtedness from each such guarantor to the extent permitted by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any right of the Borrower to ask, demand, xxx for, take or receive any payment from any guarantor, all rights, liens and security interests of the Borrower, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any guarantor shall be and are subordinated to the rights of the Holders of Secured Obligations in those assets. The Borrower shall not have any right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until all of the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been fully paid and satisfied (in cash) and all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrower and the Holders of Secured Obligations (or any affiliate thereof) have been terminated. If all or any part of the assets of any guarantor, or the proceeds thereof, are subject to any distribution, division or application to the creditors of such guarantor, whether partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, and whether by reason of liquidation, bankruptcy, arrangement, receivership, assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other action or proceeding, or if the business of any such guarantor is dissolved or if substantially all of the assets of any such guarantor are sold, then,

and in any such event (such events being herein referred to as an “Insolvency Event”), any payment or distribution of any kind or character, either in cash, securities or other property, which shall be payable or deliverable upon or with respect to any Indebtedness of any guarantor to the Borrower (“Intercompany Indebtedness”) shall be paid or delivered directly to the Agent for application on any of the Secured Obligations, due or to become due, until such Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have first been fully paid and satisfied (in cash). Should any payment, distribution, security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by the Borrower upon or with respect to the Intercompany Indebtedness after an Insolvency Event prior to the satisfaction of all of the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and the termination of all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrower and the Holders of Secured Obligations (and their Affiliates), the Borrower shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Agent, for the benefit of such Persons, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of the Borrower where necessary), for application to any of the Secured Obligations, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be held in trust by the Borrower as the property of the Holder of Secured Obligations. If the Borrower fails to make any such endorsement or assignment to the Agent, the Agent or any of its officers or employees are irrevocably authorized to make the same. The Borrower agrees that until the Secured Obligations (other than the contingent indemnity obligations) have been paid in full (in cash) and satisfied and all financing arrangements pursuant to any Loan Document among the Borrower and the Holders of the Secured Obligations (and their Affiliates) have been terminated, the Borrower will not assign or transfer to any Person (other than the Agent) any claim the Borrower has or may have against any guarantor.

9.17. Certifications Regarding Indentures. The Borrower hereby certifies to the Agent and the Lenders that, immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Revolving Loan Commitments, and immediately prior to each Credit Extension hereunder, the Borrower’s incurrence of Indebtedness under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents does not violate (i) Section 4.09 of the Indenture, dated as of June 5, 2009, as amended or modified from time to time, to which the Borrower and certain of its Subsidiaries are subject and pursuant to which the Borrower issued certain 9³/₄% Senior Notes Due 2019, and (ii) Section 4.09 of the Indenture, dated as of September 27, 2012, as amended or modified from time to time, to which the Borrower and certain of its Subsidiaries are subject and pursuant to which the Borrower issued certain 4¹/₄% Senior Notes Due 2017 and 5³/₈% Senior Notes Due 2022. The Borrower further certifies to the Agent and the Lenders that the Revolving Loan Commitment component of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute a “Credit Facility” and a “Senior Credit Facility” under each of the foregoing Indentures. The Borrower further certifies that the Revolving Loan Commitments, this Agreement, and the other Loan Documents collectively constitute “Senior Debt” under each of the foregoing Indentures.

9.18. Co-Agents. Other than as set forth in Section 9.6, no Lender identified in this Agreement as the syndication agent, the co-documentation agents or any other Co-Agent shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility, or duty under any Loan Document other than those applicable to any Lender as such. Without limiting the foregoing, no such Lender shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender.

Upon the effectiveness of the resignation of the Agent, the resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Loan Documents. After the effectiveness of the resignation of the Agent, the provisions of this Article X shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event that there is a successor to the Agent by merger, or the Agent assigns its duties and obligations to an Affiliate pursuant to this Section 10.12, then the term “Prime Rate” as used in this Agreement shall mean the prime rate, base rate or other analogous rate of the new Agent.

10.13. Agent and Arrangers Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent and the Arrangers, for their respective accounts, the fees agreed to by the Borrower, the Agent and the Arrangers pursuant to the fee letter dated November 30, 2012 by and between the Borrower and the Agent, as amended or modified from time to time.

10.14. Delegation to Affiliates. The Borrower and the Lenders agree that the Agent may delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates. Any such Affiliate (and such Affiliate’s directors, officers, agents and employees) which performs duties in connection with this Agreement shall be entitled to the same benefits of the indemnification, waiver and other protective provisions to which the Agent is entitled under Articles IX and X.

10.15. Collateral Documents. (a) Each Lender authorizes the Agent to enter into each of the Collateral Documents to which it is a party (including Amendment No. 2 to the Security Agreement) and to take all action contemplated by such documents. Each Lender agrees that no Holder of Secured Obligations (other than the Agent) shall have the right individually to seek to realize upon the security granted by any Collateral Document, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised solely by the Agent for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations upon the terms of the Collateral Documents.

(b) In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Agent is hereby authorized to execute and deliver on behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Agent on behalf of the Holders of Secured Obligations.

(c) The Lenders hereby authorize the Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment and payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations and Rate Management Obligations) at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement or the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; (ii) as permitted by, but only in accordance with, the terms of the applicable Loan Document; or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, unless such release is required to be approved by all of the Lenders hereunder. Upon request by the Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 10.15.

(d) Upon any sale or transfer of assets constituting Collateral which is permitted pursuant to the terms of any Loan Document, or consented to in writing by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable, and upon at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written request by the Borrower to the Agent, the Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Agent for the benefit of the Holders of Secured Obligations herein or pursuant hereto upon the Collateral that was sold or transferred; provided, however, that (i) the Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Agent’s opinion, would expose the Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Secured Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of) all interests retained by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, including, without limitation, the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral.

10.16. Exercise of Certain Remedies. Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights of any Lender in accordance with Section 11.1, the proceeds of which are applied in accordance with this Agreement, each Lender agrees that it will not take any action, nor institute any actions or proceedings, against the Borrower or with respect to any Loan Document, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders or, as may be provided in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, with the consent of the Agent.

ARTICLE XI

SETOFF; RATABLE PAYMENTS

11.1. Setoff. In addition to, and without limitation of, any rights of the Lenders under applicable law, if the Borrower becomes insolvent, however evidenced, or any Default occurs, any and all deposits (including all account balances, whether provisional or final and whether or not collected or available) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender to or for the credit or account of the Borrower may be offset and applied toward the payment of the Secured Obligations owing to such Lender, whether or not the Secured Obligations, or any part thereof, shall then be due and Borrower shall be promptly notified in writing thereof by such Lender and Affiliate.

11.2. Ratable Payments. If any Lender, whether by setoff or otherwise, has payment made to it upon its Outstanding Credit Exposure (other than payments received pursuant to Section 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 or 3.5 or as otherwise provided herein) in a greater proportion than that received by any other Lender, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to purchase a participation in the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure held by the other Lenders so that after such purchase each Lender will hold its Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure. If any Lender, whether in connection with setoff or amounts which might be subject to setoff or otherwise, receives collateral or other protection for its Obligations or such amounts which may be subject to setoff, such Lender agrees, promptly upon demand, to take such action necessary such that all Lenders share in the benefits of such collateral ratably in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure. In case any such payment is disturbed by legal process, or otherwise, appropriate further adjustments shall be made.

11.3. Application of Payments. Principal and interest payments shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders (according to the unpaid principal balance of the Loans to which such payments relate held by each Lender) and payments of the fees shall, as applicable, be apportioned ratably among the Lenders, except for fees payable solely to the Agent or any LC Issuer and except as provided in the fee letter referenced in Section 10.13. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.2 governing the application of mandatory prepayments, all payments shall be remitted to the Agent and all such payments not relating to principal or interest of specific Loans, or not constituting payment of specific fees, and all proceeds of any Collateral received by the Agent following acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations pursuant to Section 8.1, shall be applied, ratably, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Agent from the Borrower, second, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrower, third, to pay interest due in respect of the Revolving Loans, including Non-Ratable Loans and Collateral Protection Advances, fourth, to pay or prepay ratably the principal amount of the Collateral Protection Advances, fifth, to pay or prepay ratably the principal amount of the Non-Ratable Loans and the Revolving Loans, unpaid Reimbursement Obligations in respect of Facility LCs, and an amount to the Agent equal to one hundred and three percent (103%) of the aggregate undrawn face amount of all outstanding Facility LCs to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, sixth, to pay any amounts owing with respect to Bank Products, seventh, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Agent or any Lender by the Borrower, and eighth, to the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower, or unless a Default is in existence, neither the Agent nor any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Eurodollar Loan, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Eurodollar Loan, or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding Floating Rate Loans and, in any event, the Borrower shall pay the breakage losses with respect to Eurodollar Loans in accordance with Section 3.4. The Agent and the Required Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Secured

Obligations. Unless otherwise required by the terms of this Agreement, all principal payments in respect of Loans (other than Non-Ratable Loans and Collateral Protection Advances) shall be applied first to repay outstanding Floating Rate Loans, and then to repay outstanding Eurodollar Loans with those Eurodollar Loans which have earlier expiring Interest Periods being repaid prior to those which have later expiring Interest Periods.

11.4. Failure to Make Payment. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.18, 2.19.5, 9.15 or 10.8, then the Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Agent for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Agent, the Non-Ratable Lender or any LC Issuer to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Agent in its discretion.

ARTICLE XII

BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS; PARTICIPATIONS

12.1. Successors and Assigns. The terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower shall not have the right to assign its rights or obligations under the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender, (ii) any assignment by any Lender must be made in compliance with Section 12.3, and (iii) any transfer by Participants must be made in compliance with Section 12.2. Any attempted assignment or transfer by any party not made in compliance with this Section 12.1 shall be null and void, unless such attempted assignment or transfer is treated as a participation in accordance with Section 12.3.2. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that clause (ii) of this Section 12.1 relates only to absolute assignments and this Section 12.1 does not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, (x) any pledge or assignment by any Lender of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to a Federal Reserve Bank, (y) in the case of a Lender which is a Fund, any pledge or assignment of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to its trustee in support of its obligations to its trustee or (z) any pledge or assignment by any Lender of all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Note to direct or indirect contractual counterparties in swap agreements relating to the Loans; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment creating a security interest shall release the transferor Lender from its obligations hereunder unless and until the parties thereto have complied with the provisions of Section 12.3. The Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until such Person complies with Section 12.3; provided, however, that the Agent may in its discretion (but shall not be required to) follow instructions from the Person which made any Loan or which holds any Note to direct payments relating to such Loan or Note to another Person. Any assignee of the rights to any Loan or any Note agrees by acceptance of such assignment to be bound by all the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents. Any request, authority or consent of any Person, who at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent is the owner of the rights to any Loan (whether or not a Note has been issued in evidence thereof), shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder or assignee of the rights to such Loan.

12.2. Participations.

12.2.1 Permitted Participants; Effect. Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more banks or other entities (“Participants”) participating interests in any Outstanding Credit Exposure of such Lender, any Note held by such Lender, any Revolving Loan Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender under the Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the owner of its Outstanding Credit Exposure and the holder of any Note issued to it in evidence thereof for all purposes under the Loan Documents, all amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and the Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents.

12.2.2 Register. Each Lender that sells a participating interest, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement; provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Outstanding Credit Exposure, any Note, any Revolving Loan Commitment or any other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Outstanding Credit Exposure, Note, Revolving Loan Commitment or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, such Lender and the Agent shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

12.2.3 Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents other than any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any Credit Extension or Revolving Loan Commitment in which such Participant has an interest which would require consent of all of the Lenders pursuant to the terms of Section 8.2.

12.2.4 Benefit of Certain Provisions. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under the Loan Documents to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under the Loan Documents, provided that each Lender shall retain the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1 with respect to the amount of participating interests sold to each Participant. The Lenders agree to share with each Participant, and each Participant, by exercising the right of setoff provided in Section 11.1, agrees to share with each Lender, any amount received pursuant to the exercise of its right of setoff, such amounts to be shared in accordance with Section 11.2 as if each Participant were a Lender. The Borrower further agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.3, provided that (i) a Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.1, 3.2 or 3.5 than the Lender who sold the participating interest to such Participant would have received had it retained such interest for its own account, unless the sale of such interest to such Participant is made with the prior written consent of the Borrower, and (ii) any Participant agrees to comply with the provisions of Section 3.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender.

12.3. Assignments.

12.3.1 Permitted Assignments. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more banks or other entities (“Purchasers”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents. Such assignment shall be evidenced by an agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit C or in such other form as may be agreed to by the parties thereto (each such agreement, an “Assignment Agreement”). Each such assignment with respect to a Purchaser which is not a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund shall, unless otherwise consented to in writing by the Borrower and the Agent, either be in an amount equal to the entire applicable Outstanding Credit Exposure of the assigning Lender or (unless each of the Borrower and the Agent otherwise consents) be in an aggregate amount not less than $10,000,000 with respect to Revolving Loans. The amount of the assignment shall be based on the Outstanding Credit Exposure subject to the assignment, determined as of the date of such assignment or as of the “Trade Date,” if the “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment Agreement.

12.3.2 Consents. The consent of the Borrower shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within fifteen (15) Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided, further, that the consent of the Borrower shall not be required if (i) a Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) such assignment is in connection with the physical settlement of any Lender’s obligations to direct or indirect contractual counterparties in swap agreements relating to the Loans; provided, that the assignment without the Borrower’s consent pursuant to clause (ii) shall not increase the Borrower’s liability under Section 3.5. The consent of the Agent and, for so long as JPMorgan is an LC Issuer hereunder, JPMorgan in its capacity as a LC Issuer shall be required prior to an assignment becoming effective unless the Purchaser is a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund. Any consent required under this Section 12.3.2 shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

12.3.3 Effect; Effective Date. Upon (i) delivery to the Agent of an Assignment Agreement, together with any consents required by Sections 12.3.1 and 12.3.2, and (ii) payment of a $3,500 fee to the Agent for processing such assignment (unless such fee is waived by the Agent or unless such assignment is made to such assigning Lender’s Affiliate or an Approved Fund), such assignment shall become effective on the effective date specified in such assignment. The Assignment Agreement shall contain a representation and warranty by the Purchaser to the effect that the assignment evidenced thereby will not result in a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” under Section 406 of ERISA. On and after the effective date of such assignment, such Purchaser shall for all purposes be a Lender party to this Agreement and any other Loan Document executed by or on behalf of the Lenders and shall have all the rights, benefits and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, to the same extent as if it were an original party thereto, and the transferor Lender shall be released with respect to the Outstanding Credit Exposure assigned to such Purchaser without any further consent or action by the Borrower, the Lenders or the Agent. In the case of an assignment covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights, benefits and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to, those provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which survive payment of the Obligations and termination of the Loan Documents. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 12.3 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 Section 12.2. Upon the consummation of any assignment to a Purchaser pursuant to this Section 12.3.3, the transferor Lender, the Agent and the Borrower

shall, if the transferor Lender or the Purchaser desires that its Loans be evidenced by Notes, make appropriate arrangements so that, upon cancellation and surrender to the Borrower of the Notes (if any) held by the transferor Lender, new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes are issued to such transferor Lender, if applicable, and new Notes or, as appropriate, replacement Notes, are issued to such Purchaser, in each case in principal amounts reflecting their Revolving Loan Commitments (or, if the Termination Date has occurred, their respective Outstanding Credit Exposure), as adjusted pursuant to such assignment.

12.3.4 Register. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and the Borrower hereby designates the Agent to act in such capacity), shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Loan Commitments of, and principal amounts of and interest on the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time and whether such Lender is an original Lender or assignee of another Lender pursuant to an assignment under this Section 12.3. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the 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. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

12.4. Dissemination of Information. The Borrower authorizes each Lender to disclose to any Participant or Purchaser or any other Person acquiring an interest in the Loan Documents by operation of law (each a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee any and all information in such Lender’s possession concerning the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries; provided that each Transferee and prospective Transferee agrees to be bound by Section 9.11 of this Agreement.

12.5. Tax Certifications. If any interest in any Loan Document is transferred to any Transferee, the transferor Lender shall cause such Transferee, concurrently with the effectiveness of such transfer, to comply with the provisions of Section 3.5(iv).

PRIOR CREDIT AGREEMENT The Borrower, certain of the Lenders, and the Agent are parties to the Prior Credit Agreement. The Borrower, the Lenders, and the Agent agree that upon (i) the execution and delivery of this Agreement by each of the parties hereto and (ii) satisfaction (or waiver by the aforementioned parties) of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.1, the terms and conditions of the Prior Credit Agreement shall be and hereby are amended, superseded, and restated in their entirety by the terms and provisions of this Agreement. All amounts outstanding or otherwise due and payable under the Prior Credit Agreement prior to the Closing Date shall, on and after the Closing Date, be outstanding and due and payable under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower affirms its rights, duties and obligations under the Security Agreement, including, without limitation, the security interest granted thereunder, and the other Loan Documents delivered in connection herewith, and agrees and acknowledges that this Agreement constitutes the “Credit Agreement” referenced therein. Without limiting the foregoing, upon the effectiveness hereof, the Agent shall make such reallocations, sales, assignments or other relevant actions in respect of each Lender’s credit and loan exposure under the Prior Credit Agreement as are necessary in order that each such Lender’s Outstanding Credit Exposure hereunder reflects such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure on the Closing Date. Upon the effectiveness hereof, each Departing Lender’s “Revolving Loan Commitment” under the Prior Credit Agreement shall be terminated, each Departing Lender shall have received payment in full of all of the “Obligations” under the Prior Credit Agreement (other than obligations to pay fees and expenses with respect to which the Borrower has not received an invoice, “Rate Management Obligations”, contingent indemnity obligations and other contingent obligations owing to it under the “Loan Documents” as defined in the Prior Credit Agreement) and each Departing Lender shall not be a Lender hereunder.
