CREDIT AGREEMENT

This CREDIT AGREEMENT is entered into as of December 1, 2010 among Hanger Orthopedic Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the financial institutions from time to time party to this Agreement (collectively, the “Lenders” and each, a “Lender”) and Bank of America, N.A., as Agent, Issuer and Swing Line Lender.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS:

Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, dated as of May 26, 2006 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the Effective Date, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower, certain lenders party thereto and Citicorp North America, Inc., as administrative agent,, the lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement agreed to make extensions of credit to the Borrower on the terms and conditions set forth therein, including making loans (the “Existing Loans”) to the Borrower.

Speed Acquisition Vehicle, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Borrower (the “Merger Sub”), was organized by the Borrower to acquire control of Accelerated Care Plus Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Acquired Business”).

Pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated October 18, 2010 (the “Merger Agreement”) among the Borrower, the Merger Sub, the Acquired Business and the shareholders of the Acquired Business named therein, the Borrower and the Merger Sub have agreed to consummate a merger (the “Merger”) with the Acquired Business in which the Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Acquired Business with the Acquired Business surviving such merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Borrower.

The proceeds of the borrowings hereunder will be used to refinance in full all Existing Loans, to fund a portion of the consideration payable in connection with the Merger and to provide ongoing working capital and for other general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Borrower has requested that the lenders provide a term B loan facility in the amount of $300,000,000 and a revolving credit facility in the amount of $100,000,000, and the Lenders have indicated their willingness to lend and the Issuer has indicated its willingness to issue letters of credit, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

If the commitment of each Lender to make Loans and the obligation of the Issuer to Issue Letters of Credit have been terminated pursuant to Section 9.02, or if the Commitments have expired, then the Applicable Percentage of each Lender in respect of the applicable facility shall be determined based on the Applicable Percentage of such Lender in respect of such facility most recently in effect, giving effect to any subsequent assignments.

All Swing Line Loans shall bear interest at the Swing Line Rate and shall not be entitled to be converted into Loans that bear interest at any other rate.

2.06 Procedure for Swing Line Loans.

(a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.06, may, in its sole discretion, make loans (each such loan, a “Swing Line Loan”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day prior to the Revolving Termination Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Loans, when aggregated with the Applicable Revolving Credit Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Loan, (i) the Total Revolving Usage shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments at such time, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of any Revolving Lender at such time, plus such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations at such time, plus such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Loans at such time shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.06, prepay under Section 2.08, and reborrow under this Section 2.06. Each Swing Line Loan shall bear interest only at the Swing Line Rate. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

(b) Borrowing Procedures. Each borrowing of Swing Line Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Agent of a written Swing Line Loan Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Loan Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Agent (by telephone or in

writing) that the Agent has also received such Swing Line Loan Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Agent (including at the request of any Revolving Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Loan (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.06(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article V is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Loan Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower.

(c) Refinancing of Swing Line Loans. (i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Revolving Lender make a Base Rate Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Notice of Borrowing for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.03, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Facility and the conditions set forth in Section 5.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrower with a copy of the applicable Borrowing Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Agent. Each Revolving Lender shall make an amount equal to its Applicable Percentage of the amount specified in such Borrowing Notice available to the Agent in immediately available funds (and the Agent may during a Specified Default apply Cash Collateral available with respect to the applicable Swing Line Loan) for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Agent’s Payment Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Borrowing Notice, whereupon, subject to Section 2.06(c)(2), each Revolving Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in such amount. The Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Borrowing of Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.06(c)(1), the request for Base Rate Loans submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Revolving Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan and each Revolving Lender’s payment to the Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.06(c)(1) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iii) If any Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.06(c) by the time specified in Section 2.06(c)(1), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (3) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section 2.06(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment,

defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.06(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to repay Swing Line Loans, together with interest as provided herein.

(d) Repayment of Participations. (i) At any time after any Revolving Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Loan, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Loan, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Revolving Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Loan is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.05 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrower for interest on the Swing Line Loans. Until each Revolving Lender funds its Base Rate Loan or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.06 to refinance such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of any Swing Line Loan, interest in respect of such Applicable Percentage shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender.

2.07 Voluntary Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments.

The Borrower may, upon not less than three Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent (which notice may be conditioned upon the consummation of replacement financing), terminate the Revolving Commitments, or permanently reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitment by $2,000,000 or any higher integral multiple of $1,000,000; provided that the Aggregate Revolving Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount less than the Total Revolving Usage. Once reduced in accordance with this Section 2.07, the Aggregate Revolving Commitment may not be increased. Any reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment shall be applied to reduce the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender according to its Applicable Percentage.

2.08 Optional Prepayments.

(a) Subject to Section 4.04, the Borrower may, at any time or from time to time, upon not less than two Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the Agent (which notice may be conditioned upon the consummation of replacement financing), in respect of LIBOR Rate Loans, and in respect of Base Rate Loans, by not later than 10:30 a.m. (Eastern time) on the prepayment date, prepay Loans in whole or in part, in an aggregate minimum amount that is not less than $2,000,000 (or such lesser amount agreed to by the Agent). Such notice of prepayment shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment, which Loans are to be prepaid and the Class(es) and Type(s) of such Loans to be prepaid and, in the case of a

prepayment of Term Loans, the installments to which such prepayment shall be applied. The Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of any such notice, and of such Lender’s Percentage of such prepayment, subject to Section 3.11, if applicable. If such notice is given by the Borrower, the Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together, in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, with accrued interest to each such date on the amount prepaid and any amounts required pursuant to Section 4.04.

(b) In the case of prepayments pursuant to Section 2.08(a), if the Borrower makes any prepayment of Term Loans in connection with any Repricing Transaction, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Term Lenders, (i) if such prepayment and refinancing occurs prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Date, a prepayment premium of 1% of the amount of the Term Loans being prepaid or, (ii) in the case of any such prepayment and refinancing thereafter, (ii) 0% of the amount of the Term Loans being prepaid.

2.09 Mandatory Prepayments of Loans.

(a) If the Agent notifies the Borrower at any time that the Total Revolving Usage at such time exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Commitment then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall prepay Loans and/or the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize (or provide other Backup Support for) the L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce the Total Revolving Usage as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment then in effect.

(b) Within five Business Days after financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 7.01(a) and the related Compliance Certificate has been delivered pursuant to Section 7.02(b) for any fiscal year of the Borrower, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011, the Borrower shall make a prepayment of Term Loans in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of (A) the Applicable ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year over (B) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans prepaid pursuant to Section 2.08(a) (such prepayments to be applied as set forth in subsection (d) below).

(c) If the Borrower or any Subsidiary receives any Net Cash Proceeds from any of the following events, the Borrower shall, for so long as any Term Loans are outstanding, apply such Net Cash Proceeds at the following times and in the order of application set forth in subsection (d) below (any such application, a “Proceeds Application”):

(i) Within five Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from any Disposition (other than a Disposition of the type described in Section 8.02(a) through 8.02(i)) or Recovery Event (in each case excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, amounts reinvested or to be reinvested as contemplated by the definition of “Net Cash Proceeds”), the Borrower shall make a Proceeds Application in an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds.

(ii) Within five Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from (x) the issuance of any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted by Section 8.05) or (y) any increase in the Outstanding Securitization Amount above the highest Outstanding Securitization Amount, if any, previously in effect, the Borrower shall make a Proceeds Application in an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds.

(d) Except to the extent any Incremental Term Joinder Agreement or Extension Amendment provides that the Term Loans established thereby shall receive a lesser amount from any prepayment pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above, each prepayment pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above shall be applied ratably

to the Term Loan(s) of each Class in proportion to the original principal amounts thereof, and shall be applied ratably to the remaining installments thereof.

2.10 Repayment.

(a) The Borrower shall repay all Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans on the Revolving Maturity Date.

(b) The Borrower shall repay to the Agent for the ratable account of the Term B Lenders (i) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December prior to the Term B Maturity Date, commencing March 31, 2011, an aggregate amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term B Loans outstanding on the Effective Date (which payments shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with the order of priority set forth in Sections 2.08 and 2.09, as applicable) and (ii) on the Term B Maturity Date, the aggregate principal amount of all Term B Loans outstanding on such date.

2.11 Interest.

(a) Each Revolving Loan and each Term B Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable Borrowing Date at a rate per annum equal to (i) the LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Rate or (ii) the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate, as the case may be (and subject to the Borrower’s right to convert Loans from one Type to the other).

(b) Interest on each Revolving Loan and Term B Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and on (i) the Revolving Maturity Date, in the case of Revolving Loans or (ii) the Term B Maturity Date, in the case of Term B Loans. Interest on LIBOR Rate Loans shall also be paid on the date of any prepayment thereof for the portion of the Loans so prepaid. During the existence of any Event of Default, interest on all Loans shall be paid on demand of the Agent at the request or with the consent of the Required Lenders.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 2.11(a), (i) while an Event of Default under Section 9.01(a) exists, (ii) upon the request of the Required Lenders while any other Event of Default exists or (iii) after acceleration, the Borrower shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the principal amount of all outstanding Loans, at a rate per annum determined by adding 2% per annum to the applicable interest rate otherwise then in effect for such Loans.

(d) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Borrower to any Lender hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required for any period for which interest is computed hereunder to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by such Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest that may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event the Borrower shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law.

2.12 Fees. In addition to certain fees described in Section 3.08:

(a) Agency Fees. The Borrower shall pay the Agent such fees as are required by the Fee Letter or as otherwise agreed to by the Borrower and the Agent from time to time in connection herewith. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid.

(b) Commitment Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) on the average daily unused portion of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment, computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter based upon the daily utilization for that quarter as calculated by the Agent, equal to the Applicable Rate. For purposes of calculating utilization under this subsection, the Revolving Commitments shall be deemed used to the extent of the principal amount of Revolving Loans then outstanding (excluding any outstanding Swing Line Loans), plus the amount of all L/C Obligations then outstanding. Commitment Fees shall accrue from the Effective Date to the Revolving Termination Date and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter commencing on March 31, 2011 through the Revolving Termination Date, with the final payment to be made on the Revolving Termination Date; provided that, in connection with any reduction or termination of Revolving Commitments under Section 2.07, the accrued Commitment Fee calculated for the period ending on such date shall also be paid on the date of such reduction or termination, with the following quarterly payment being calculated on the basis of the period from such reduction or termination date to such quarterly payment date. The Commitment Fees provided in this subsection shall accrue at all times after the above-mentioned commencement date, including at any time during which one or more conditions in Article V are not met.

(c) Upfront Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay on the Closing Date to each Lender party to this Agreement on the Closing Date, as fee compensation for the funding of such Lender’s Term Loan and making of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, a closing fee (the “Closing Fee”) in an amount equal to (x) 1.50% of the stated principal amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment on the Closing Date and (y) 0.50% of the stated principal amount of such Lender’s Term Loan made on the Closing Date. Such Closing Fee will be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Closing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter and, in the case of the Term Loans, such Closing Fee shall be netted against Term Loans made by such Lender.

2.13 Computation of Fees and Interest.

(a) Interest on any Loan bearing interest based upon the Base Rate shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more interest being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the applicable Lenders in the absence of demonstrable error.

2.14 Payments by the Borrower.

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim. Except as otherwise specified herein, all payments by the Borrower shall be made to the Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders at the Agent’s Payment Office no later than 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on the date specified herein. All such payments shall be made in funds immediately available to the Agent and in Dollars. The Agent will promptly distribute to each applicable Lender its applicable share of such payment which, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be based upon such Lender’s Percentage of the Loans in respect of which such payment has been made. Any payment

received by the Agent later than 1:00 p.m. (Eastern time) shall be deemed to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b) Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” herein, whenever any payment is due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

(c) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the time at which any payment is due to the Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuer hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders or the Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the applicable Lenders or the Issuer, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuer, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

2.15 Payments by the Lenders to the Agent.

(a) Unless the Agent receives notice from a Lender on or prior to the Effective Date or, with respect to any Borrowing of Revolving Loans after the Effective Date, at least one Business Day prior to the date of such Borrowing, that such Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to the Agent for the account of the Borrower the amount of that Lender’s Percentage of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that each Lender has made such amount available to the Agent in immediately available funds on the Borrowing Date and the Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent any Lender shall not have made its full amount available to the Agent in immediately available funds and the Agent in such circumstances has made available to the Borrower such amount, that Lender shall on the Business Day following such Borrowing Date make such amount available to the Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period. A notice of the Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing under this subsection (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available, such payment to the Agent shall constitute such Lender’s Loan on the date of Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement. If such amount is not made available to the Agent on the Business Day following the Borrowing Date, the Agent will notify the Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by the Agent, the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Agent for the Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing.

(b) The failure of any applicable Lender to make any Loan on any Borrowing Date shall not relieve any other applicable Lender of any obligation hereunder to make a Loan on such Borrowing Date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on any Borrowing Date.

2.16 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder), such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Agent of such fact and (b) purchase

from the other applicable Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment pro rata with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other applicable Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off, but subject to Section 11.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section and will in each case notify the applicable Lenders following any such purchases or repayments.

2.17 Amendments Effecting a Maturity Extension. In addition, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary:

(a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Agent (who shall forward such notice to all applicable Lenders), make an offer (each such offer, an “Extension Offer”) on a pro rata basis to all the Lenders of any Class (including any tranche of Incremental Term Loans) to make one or more amendments or modifications to allow the maturity of the Loans and/or Commitments of the Extending Lenders (as defined below) to be extended, and, in connection with such extension, to (i) reduce, eliminate or otherwise modify the scheduled amortization of the applicable Loans of the Extending Lenders, (ii) increase the Applicable Rates and/or fees payable with respect to the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Extending Lenders and the payment of additional fees or other consideration to the Extending Lenders, and/or (iii) change such additional terms and conditions of this Agreement solely as applicable to the Extending Lenders (such additional changed terms and conditions (to the extent not otherwise approved by the requisite Lenders under Section 11.01) to be effective only during the period following the original maturity date prior to its extension by such Extending Lenders) (collectively, “Permitted Amendments”) pursuant to procedures reasonably acceptable to each of the Agent and the Borrower. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 3 Business Days after the date of such notice). To the extent not otherwise approved by the requisite Lenders under Section 11.01, Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments of the Lenders that accept the Extension Offer (such Lenders, the “Extending Lenders”) and, in the case of any Extending Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made. The Borrower, each other Loan Party and each Extending Lender shall execute and deliver to the Agent an extension amendment to this Agreement (an “Extension Amendment”) and such other documentation as the Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the Permitted Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of the Extension Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of the Extension Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Amendment evidenced thereby and only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Extending Lenders as to which such Lenders’ acceptance has been made. The Borrower may effectuate no more than two Extension Amendments as to each Class of Loans.

(b) Any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, made to effect any Permitted Amendment that by its express terms amends or modifies the rights or duties under this Agreement or such other Loan Document of one or more Classes of Lenders (but not of one or more other Classes of Lenders) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing signed by the Agent, the Borrower or the applicable Loan Party, as the case may be, and the requisite percentage in interest of each affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under Section 11.01 as if all such affected Classes of Lenders were the only Lenders hereunder at the time.

(c) This Section shall supersede any provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, including Section 11.01, it being understood, however, that nothing in this Section shall impair or limit the effectiveness of any amendment effectuated in accordance with Section 11.01 (including, without limitation, any amendment effectuated simultaneously with any Permitted Amendment).

2.18 Increase in Term Facility.

(a) Request for Increase. Provided there exists no Default or Event of Default, upon notice to the Agent (which shall promptly notify the Term Lenders) and without requiring the consent of any of the Lenders other than as specifically set forth in this Section, the Borrower may from time to time, request an increase in the Term Loans, in the form of either (i) an increase in the Term Commitments then in effect under this Agreement or (ii) the addition of one or more term loan facilities pursuant to which the Borrower may borrow a new tranche of term loans (“Incremental Term Loans”), by an aggregate amount for all such requests not exceeding $150,000,000; provided that any such request for an increase shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000 (or, if less, the amount representing all remaining availability under this sentence) and whole multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. At the time of sending such notice, the Borrower (in consultation with the Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Term Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than five Business Days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Term Lenders).

(b) Conditions, etc. to Increase.

(i) The Agent and the Borrower shall determine the effective date (the “Term Facility Increase Effective Date”), and the Borrower shall determine (with the approval of the Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) in the case of any new Lender) the final allocation of such increase, and the amortization schedule for such Term Loans after giving effect to such increase. The Borrower shall determine, together with the Term Lenders (including any new Term Lenders) participating in such increase, the interest rate, upfront fees and original issue discount, if any, for any increase under this Section, and this Agreement shall be amended, as appropriate, to reflect such terms (without the consent of any other Lender but with the consent of the Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)). The Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Term Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Term Facility Increase Effective Date. No existing Lender shall be obligated to participate in any such increase and only shall be bound by a written commitment with respect thereto.

(ii) The Borrower may, at any time, upon prior written notice to the Agent, institute a new tranche of Incremental Term Loans in accordance with clause (a); provided that

(A) the Borrower (in consultation and coordination with the Agent) shall obtain commitments for the amount of the Incremental Term Loans from the Term Lenders or other Eligible

Assignees selected by the Borrower and reasonably acceptable to the Agent, which Lenders (collectively, “Incremental Term Lenders”) shall join in this Agreement as Incremental Term Lenders by executing a joinder agreement reasonably acceptable to the Agent and the Borrower (an “Incremental Term Joinder Agreement)”;

(B) no Default or Event of Default shall exist and be continuing at the time of such Incremental Term Loans;

(C) a Responsible Officer of the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certificate demonstrating that, upon giving effect to the borrowing of such Incremental Term Loans and the use of proceeds therefrom,, the Borrower would be in compliance with the covenants set forth in Sections 8.09 and 8.10, and the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio is equal to or less than 2.75 to 1.00, as of the most recent fiscal quarter for which the Borrower was required to deliver financial statements pursuant to Section 7.01(a) or (b);

(D) the maturity date for Incremental Term Loans shall be as set forth in the Incremental Term Joinder Agreement, provided that such maturity date shall not be earlier than the then latest scheduled Term Maturity Date;

(E) the scheduled principal amortization payments under the Incremental Term Loans shall be as set forth in the Incremental Term Joinder Agreement; provided that the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Incremental Term Loans shall not be less than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any then outstanding Class of Term Loans;

(F) the interest rates, fees (including upfront fees and/or original issue discount arrangements) and other pricing terms applicable to the Incremental Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders thereof; provided that in the event that the interest rate margins applicable to any such Incremental Term Loans are greater than the Applicable Rates for the Term B Facility by more than 50 basis points, then the Applicable Rates for the Term B Facility shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the interest rate margins for such Incremental Term Loans are 50 basis points greater than the Applicable Rates for the Term B Facility; provided, further, that, in determining the applicable interest rate margins for such Incremental Term Loans and the Term B Facility, (I) original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under the Term B Facility or any Incremental Term Loans in the initial primary syndication thereof shall be included (with OID being equated to interest based on an assumed four-year life to maturity), (II) customary arrangement or commitment fees payable to any of the Joint Lead Arrangers (or their respective affiliates) in connection with the Term B Facility or to one or more arrangers (or their Affiliates) of any Incremental Term Loans shall be excluded, and (III) if such Incremental Term Loans include an interest rate floor greater than the interest rate floor applicable to the Term B Facility, such increased amount shall be equated to the applicable interest rate margin for purposes of determining whether an increase to the interest margins for the Term B Facility shall be required, to the extent an increase in the interest rate floor for the Term B Facility would cause an increase in the interest rate then in effect thereunder, and in such case the interest rate floor (but not the interest margins for the Term B Facility) applicable to the Term B Facility shall be increased by such amount;

(G) as a condition precedent to such institution of any new tranche of Incremental Term Loans and the effectiveness of the Incremental Term Joinder Agreement, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certificate of each Loan Party, dated as of the date of such institution and effectiveness, signed by a Responsible Officer of such Loan Party (I) certifying and attaching

the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or consenting to the Incremental Term Loans, and (II) certifying that, before and after giving effect to the Incremental Term Loans, (x) the representations and warranties contained in Article VI are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of the making of the Incremental Term Loans, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date and (y) no Default or Event of Default exists or would result from the making of such Incremental Term Loans; and

(H) except as otherwise specifically provided in clauses (D) through (G) above, the terms of the Incremental Term Facility shall be substantially identical to the terms applicable to the Term B Facility as reasonably determined by the Agent.

The foregoing shall not impair the effectiveness of any other amendment of this Agreement, including any such amendment entered into simultaneously with the institution of the new tranche of Incremental Term Loans, in accordance with Section 11.01.

(c) Conflicting Provisions. This Section shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.16 or 11.01 to the contrary (subject to the last sentence of clause (b) above).

2.19 Term Loan Repurchases.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the Borrower may conduct reverse Dutch auctions from time to time in order to purchase Term Loans (each, an “Auction”) (each such Auction to be managed exclusively by the Agent (if it consents to do so in its sole discretion) or another investment bank(s) of recognized standing selected by the Borrower following consultation with the Agent (in such capacity, the “Auction Manager”)) in an aggregate amount not to exceed $60,000,000, so long as the following conditions are satisfied:

(i) each Auction shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures, terms and conditions set forth in this Section and Schedule 2.19;

(iii) the minimum principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of Term Loans that the Borrower offers to purchase in any such Auction shall be no less than $10,000,000 (unless another amount is agreed to by the Agent);

(iv) both immediately before and after giving effect to any purchase of Term Loans pursuant to this Section, (A) the Borrower shall be in compliance with the covenants set forth in Sections 8.09 and 8.10 as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available, and (B) Available Liquidity would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment;

(v) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans so purchased by the Borrower shall automatically be cancelled and retired by the Borrower on the settlement date of the relevant purchase (and may not be resold);

(vi) no more than one Auction may be ongoing at any one time;

(vii) the Borrower shall represent and warrant that no Loan Party shall have any MNPI that both (A) has not been previously disclosed in writing to the Agent and the Lenders (other than because such Lender does not wish to receive such MNPI) prior to such time and (B) could reasonably be expected to be material to a Lender’s decision to participate in the Auction; and

(viii) at the time of each purchase of Term Loans through an Auction, the Borrower shall have delivered to the Auction Manager an officer’s certificate of a Responsible Officer certifying as to compliance with the preceding clauses (i) through (vii).

If the Borrower commences any Auction (and all relevant requirements set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the commencement of the respective Auction have in fact been satisfied), and if at such time of commencement the Borrower reasonably believes that all required conditions set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the purchase of Term Loans pursuant to such Auction shall be satisfied, then the Borrower shall have no liability to any Term Lender or any other Person for any termination of the respective Auction as a result of its failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of purchase of Term Loans pursuant to the respective Auction, and any such failure shall not result in any Default or Event of Default hereunder. With respect to all purchases of Term Loans made by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, (i) the Borrower shall pay on the settlement date of each such purchase all accrued and unpaid interest (except to the extent otherwise set forth in the relevant offer documents), if any, on the purchased Term Loans up to the settlement date of such purchase and (ii) such purchases (and the payments made by the Borrower and the cancellation of the purchased Term Loans, in each case in connection therewith) shall not be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.08 or 2.09.

The Auction Manager acting in its capacity as such hereunder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of Article X and Section 11.04 mutatis mutandis as if each reference therein to the “Agent” were a reference to the Auction Manager, and the Agent shall cooperate with the Auction Manager as reasonably requested by the Auction Manager in order to enable it to perform its responsibilities and duties in connection with each Auction.

Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and, accordingly, the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit which have expired or which have been drawn upon and reimbursed. Each of the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit Issued hereunder on the Effective Date.

(b) No Issuer shall issue any Letter of Credit if:

(i) subject to Section 3.02(d), the expiry date of the requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the date of issuance or last extension, unless the Required Revolving Lenders have approved such expiry date; or

(ii) the expiry date of the requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Revolving Maturity Date, unless (x) all the Revolving Lenders and the Issuer have approved such expiry date or (y) such Letter of Credit is cash collateralized or becomes a Supported Letter of Credit on terms and pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Issuer.

(i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuer from Issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to such Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuer shall prohibit, or request that such Issuer refrain from, the Issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuer is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which such Issuer in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it;

(iii) any requested Letter of Credit does not provide for drafts, or is not otherwise in form and substance acceptable to such Issuer, or the Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall violate any applicable policies of such Issuer;

(iv) such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars; or

(v) any Revolving Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, with the Borrower or such Revolving Lender to eliminate the Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 3.11(a)(iv)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which the Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion.

(d) Each Issuer shall act on behalf of the Revolving Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit Issued by it and the documents associated therewith, and the Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Agent in Article X with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit Issued by it or proposed to be Issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Agent” as used in Article X included the Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the Issuer.

3.02 Issuance, Amendment and Renewal of Letters of Credit.

(a) Each Letter of Credit shall be Issued upon the irrevocable written request of the Borrower received by the applicable Issuer (with a copy sent by such Issuer to the Agent) at least three days (or such shorter time as such Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of Issuance. Each such request for Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing (if required by the applicable Issuer), in the form of an L/C Application (or such other form as shall be acceptable to such Issuer), or shall be by online letter of credit software acceptable to such Issuer, and shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to such Issuer: (i) the proposed date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (ii) the face amount of such Letter of Credit; (iii) the expiry date of such Letter of Credit; (iv) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (v) the documents to be presented by the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit in case of any drawing thereunder; (vi) the full text of any certificate to be presented by the beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (vii) such other matters as such Issuer may require.

(b) At least two Business Days prior to the Issuance of any Letter of Credit (or such shorter time as the Agent may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion), the applicable Issuer will confirm with the Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Agent has received a copy of the L/C Application or L/C Amendment Application and, if not, such Issuer will provide the Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the applicable Issuer has received notice on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the date such Issuer is to issue a requested Letter of Credit from the Agent (A) directing such Issuer not to issue such Letter of Credit because such issuance is not then permitted under Section 3.01(a) as a result of the limitations set forth in clauses (1) and (2) thereof or Section 3.01(b)(ii); or (B) that one or more conditions specified in Article V are not then satisfied; then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower in accordance with such Issuer’s usual and customary business practices.

(c) From time to time while a Letter of Credit is outstanding and prior to the Revolving Termination Date, the applicable Issuer will, upon the written request of the Borrower received by such Issuer (with a copy sent by such Issuer to the Agent) at least three days (or such shorter time as such Issuer may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed date of amendment, amend any Letter of Credit issued by it. Each such request for amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be made by facsimile, confirmed immediately in an original writing (if required by the applicable Issuer), made in the form of an L/C Amendment Application or through on-line letter of credit software acceptable to such Issuer, and shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to such Issuer: (i) the Letter of Credit to be

amended; (ii) the proposed date of amendment of such Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (iv) such other matters as such Issuer may require. No Issuer shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if: (A) such amendment would extend the expiry date for, or increase the amount of, such Letter of Credit and such Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms of this Agreement; or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept such amendment (and no Issuer shall so amend any Letter of Credit if such Issuer has received a notice of the type described in the second sentence of Section 3.02(b)). The Agent will promptly notify the Revolving Lenders of the receipt by it of any L/C Application or L/C Amendment Application.

(d) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable L/C Application, the Issuer may, in its sole discretion, agree to Issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Issuer to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is Issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuer, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Revolving Maturity Date; provided, however, that the Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted (and shall be under no obligation to permit such extension if the Issuer has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof) (by reason of the provisions of clause Section 3.01(b) or (c) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Agent that the Required Revolving Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Agent, any Revolving Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 5.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Issuer not to permit such extension.

(e) This Agreement shall control in the event of any conflict with any L/C-Related Document (other than any Letter of Credit).

(f) Each Issuer (other than any Affiliate of the Agent) will also deliver to the Agent:

(i) concurrently or promptly following its delivery of a Letter of Credit, or amendment to or renewal of a Letter of Credit, to an advising bank or a beneficiary, a true and complete copy of each such Letter of Credit or amendment to or renewal of a Letter of Credit; and

(ii) no later than the third Business Day following the last day of each month, a schedule of the Letters of Credit issued by it, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, showing the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, the account party, the original face amount (if any), the expiration date, and the reference number of any Letter of Credit outstanding at any time during such month, and showing the aggregate amount (if any) payable by the Borrower to such Issuer during such month.

3.03 Risk Participations, Drawings and Reimbursements.

(a) Immediately upon the Issuance of a Letter of Credit by an Issuer, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from such Issuer a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to the product of (i)

the Revolving Percentage of such Revolving Lender, times (ii) the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively. For purposes of Section 2.01, each Issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to utilize the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender by an amount equal to the amount of such participation.

(b) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the Issuer shall notify the Borrower and the Agent thereof. Not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of any payment by the Issuer under a Letter of Credit (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuer in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing; provided that, if the Borrower does not receive notice prior to 10:00 a.m. on such Honor Date of such payment by the Issuer, the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuer not later than 1:00 p.m. on the first Business Day following the Business Day upon which the Borrower receives such notice. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the Issuer by such time, the Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. In the event the Borrower does not reimburse the Issuer for any drawing under any Letter of Credit on the Honor Date such amount shall bear interest at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans until reimbursed and if the Borrower fails to reimburse the Issuer at the time provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be disbursed at such time in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.03 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment and the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 (other than the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing). Any notice given by the Issuer or the Agent pursuant to this Section 3.03(b) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing in accordance with Section 11.02; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(c) Each Revolving Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 3.03(b) make available to the Agent (and the Agent may during a Specified Default apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the relevant Issuer an amount in immediately available funds equal to its Revolving Percentage of the amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Revolving Lenders shall (subject to Section 3.03(d)) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan consisting of a Base Rate Loan to the Borrower in that amount. If any Revolving Lender so notified fails to make available to the Agent for the account of the relevant Issuer the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of the drawing by no later than 12:00 noon (Eastern time) on the Honor Date, then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, interest shall accrue on such Revolving Lender’s obligation to make such payment, from the Honor Date to the date such Revolving Lender makes such payment, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time during such period. The Agent will promptly give notice of the occurrence of the Honor Date, but failure of the Agent to give any such notice on the Honor Date or in sufficient time to enable any Revolving Lender to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Revolving Lender from its obligations under this Section 3.03.

(d) With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into Revolving Loans consisting of Base Rate Loans to the Borrower in whole or in part, because of the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 or for any other reason, the Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of such drawing, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate plus 2.0% per annum, and each Revolving Lender’s payment to such Issuer pursuant to Section 3.03(c) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Revolving Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 3.03.

(e) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation in accordance with this Agreement to make the Revolving Loans or L/C Advances, as contemplated by this Section 3.03, as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit, shall be absolute and unconditional and without recourse to the applicable Issuer and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against such Issuer, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, an Event of Default or a Material Adverse Effect; or (iii) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided that each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans under this Section 3.03 is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 5.02.

3.04 Repayment of Participations.

(a) Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Agent for the account of the applicable Issuer of immediately available funds from the Borrower (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by such Issuer under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Revolving Lender has paid the Agent for the account of such Issuer for such Revolving Lender’s participation in the Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 3.03 or (ii) in payment of interest thereon, the Agent will promptly pay to each Revolving Lender, for the account of such Issuer, the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such funds, and such Issuer shall receive the amount of the Revolving Percentage of such funds of any Revolving Lender that did not so pay the Agent for the account of such Issuer.

(b) If the Agent or an Issuer is required at any time to return to the Borrower, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by the Borrower to the Agent for the account of such Issuer pursuant to Section 3.04(a) in reimbursement of a payment made under the applicable Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Revolving Lender shall, on demand of the Agent, forthwith return to the Agent or such Issuer the amount of its Revolving Percentage of any amounts so returned by the Agent or such Issuer plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Revolving Lender to the Agent or such Issuer, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate in effect from time to time.

3.05 Role of the Issuers.

(a) Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft and certificates expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document.

(b) No Agent-Related Person nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of the Issuers shall be liable to any Lender for: (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Revolving Lenders (including the Required Revolving Lenders or all Revolving Lenders, as applicable); (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any L/C-Related Document.

(c) The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. No Agent-Related Person, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any Issuer, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (vi) of Section 3.06; provided that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against an Issuer, and an Issuer may be liable

to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by such Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence, such Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit or such other actions or omissions as may be agreed between the Borrower and such Issuer (it being understood that any such claim shall be solely against the applicable Issuer and shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations hereunder to the other parties hereto). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing: (i) any Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary; and (ii) no Issuer shall be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

3.06 Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and any L/C-Related Document to reimburse the applicable Issuer for a drawing under a Letter of Credit, and to repay any L/C Borrowing and any drawing under a Letter of Credit converted into Revolving Loans, shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each such other L/C-Related Document under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any L/C-Related Document;

(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of any Letter of Credit or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the L/C-Related Documents;

(iii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), such Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by the L/C-Related Documents or any unrelated transaction;

(iv) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit;

(v) any payment by such Issuer under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of any Letter of Credit; or any payment made by such Issuer under any Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding;

(vi) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guarantee, for all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of any Letter of Credit; or

(vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or a guarantor.

The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will promptly notify the Issuer.

3.07 Backup Support. The Borrower will, not later than five Business Days prior to the scheduled Revolving Termination Date (or, if earlier, the date of termination or reduction to zero of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment), cause each Letter of Credit to be a Supported Letter of Credit.

3.08 Letter of Credit Fees.

(a) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each of the Revolving Lenders a letter of credit fee with respect to the Letters of Credit (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to (i) for each performance standby Letter of Credit with respect to nonfinancial contractual obligations equal to 50% of the Applicable Rate applicable to Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, and (ii) for each other Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Rate applicable to Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter based upon Letters of Credit outstanding for that quarter as calculated by the Agent; provided that any Letter of Credit Fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit as to which such Defaulting Lender has not provided Cash Collateral satisfactory to the Issuer pursuant to this Article III shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to the other Revolving Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Revolving Percentage allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, payable to the Issuer for its own account; and provided, further, that while an Event of Default under Section 9.01(a) exists or upon the request of the Required Lenders while any other Event of Default exists, such Letter of Credit Fees shall be increased by adding 2% per annum to the Applicable Rate applicable to Revolving Loans then in effect for such Letters of Credit. Such letter of credit fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter during which Letters of Credit are outstanding, commencing on the first such quarterly date to occur after the Effective Date, through the Revolving Maturity Date (or such later date upon which the outstanding Letters of Credit shall expire), with the final payment to be made on the Revolving Maturity Date (or such later expiration date).

(b) The Borrower shall pay to each Issuer, for its own account, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit in the amount of 0.25% per annum of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, computed on a quarterly basis in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter based upon Letters of Credit outstanding for that quarter as calculated by the Agent. Such fee shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter during which Letters of Credit are outstanding, commencing on the first such quarterly date to occur after the Effective Date, through the Revolving Maturity Date, with the final payment to be made on the Revolving Maturity Date.

(c) The Borrower shall pay to each Issuer from time to time on demand the normal issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect.

3.09 Applicability of ISP98 and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuer and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (a) the rules of the “International Standby Practices 1998” published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice (or such later version thereof as may be in effect at the time of issuance) (“ISP98”) shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (b) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance (the “UCP”) shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit (it being understood that the Borrower may request that any particular Letter of Credit be governed by either ISP98 or the UCP, as selected by the Borrower).

3.10 Cash Collateral.

(a) Upon the request of the Agent or the Issuer (i) if the Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, or (ii) if, as of the expiry date for any Letter of Credit, any L/C Obligation with respect to such Letter of Credit for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize (or, solely with respect to clause (ii), provide other Backup Support) in the amount of the then outstanding amount of all L/C Obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, promptly upon the request of the Agent, the Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 3.11(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(b) All Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, interest bearing deposit accounts at the Agent. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent, the Issuer and the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest (subject to any Lien permitted pursuant to Section 8.01(c) or (j)) in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 3.10(c). If at any time the Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim (subject to any Lien permitted pursuant to Section 8.01(c) or (j)) of any Person other than the Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the applicable Fronting Exposure and other obligations secured thereby, the Borrower or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Agent (which demand shall include a reasonably detailed accounting of the amount so demanded), pay or provide to the Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Article III or Section 2.06, 2.09 or 9.02 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, Swing Line Loans, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(d) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 11.07(a)(vii))) or (ii) the Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the

Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

3.11 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 11.01.

(ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article IX or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Agent by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.09), shall be applied at such time or times as may be reasonably determined by the Agent as follows (and, in any case, when due): first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Agent or requested by any Issuer or Swing Line Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swing Line Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Specified Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or any Issuer or Swing Line Lender as a result of any final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, Issuer or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Specified Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans or L/C Borrowings were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Borrowings owed to, such Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 3.11(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Such Defaulting Lender (x) shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.12(b) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender) and (y) shall be limited in its right to receive Letter of Credit Fees as provided in Section 3.08.

(iv) During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Article III and Section 2.06, the “Revolving Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; provided that (x) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists, and (y) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Revolving Commitment of such non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate outstanding amount of the Revolving Loans of such Lender.

(b) The Agent agrees to promptly notify the Borrower upon any Lender’s becoming a Defaulting Lender (but the Agent shall have no liability for any failure to give, or any delay in giving, any such notice). If the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuers and the Swing Line Lenders agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will promptly so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Percentages (without giving effect to Section 3.11(a)(iv) as to such Lender), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

ARTICLE IV

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

4.01 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by the Borrower to each Lender or the Agent under this Agreement and any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any Taxes. In addition, the Borrower shall pay all Other Taxes.

(b) If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Lender or the Agent, then:

(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that, after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), such Lender or the Agent, as the case may be, receives and retains an amount equal to the sum it would have received and retained had no such deductions or withholdings been made;

(ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and withholdings;

(iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law; and

(iv) the Borrower shall also pay to each Lender or the Agent for the account of such Lender, at the time interest is paid, Further Taxes in the amount that such Lender specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield such Lender would have received if such Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes had not been imposed.

(c) The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and the Agent for the full amount of (i) Taxes, (ii) Other Taxes, and (iii) Further Taxes in the amount that such Lender or the Agent, respectively, specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Lender would have received if such Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes had not been imposed, and any liability (including penalties (except to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender or the Agent, respectively), interest, additions to tax and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date such Lender or the Agent makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment by the Borrower of Taxes, Other Taxes or Further Taxes, the Borrower shall furnish to each applicable Lender or the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment satisfactory to such Lender or the Agent.

(e) If the Borrower is required to pay any amount to any Lender or the Agent for the account of such Lender pursuant to subsection (b) or (c) of this Section, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office so as to eliminate any such additional payment by the Borrower which may thereafter accrue, if such change in the sole judgment of such Lender is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(f) Each Lender shall, promptly upon request by the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower copies of all completed and executed forms reasonably deemed necessary by the Borrower in connection with the payment of amounts demanded by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing subsection (c).

(g) FATCA. In addition, each Lender, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder and from time to time thereafter either upon the request of the Agent or their respective agents or upon expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered documentation, shall furnish the Agent with any documentation that is required under the Code or applicable Treasury regulations to enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine their duties and liabilities with respect to any Taxes they may be required to withhold in respect of Section 1471 or 1472 of the Code; provided that the furnishing of such documentation would not result in a material adverse consequence to such Lender. In the event that either (i) the documentation required to be delivered pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence fails to establish a complete exemption from withholding of amounts under Section 1471 and 1472 or (ii) no such required documentation is delivered, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to clause (b)(iv), or to indemnify any Lender pursuant to clause (c), in respect of any such withholding imposed under Sections 1471 or 1472.

4.02 Illegality.

(a) If any Lender determines that the introduction after the date hereof of any Requirement of Law, or any change after the date hereof in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or administration of any Requirement of Law, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental

Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest rate is determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the interbank market, then, on notice thereof by the Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, (i) any obligation of that Lender to make or continue LIBOR Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the LIBOR Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist, at which time such Lender shall promptly notify the Agent and the Borrower, and such Lender’s obligation to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be reinstated.

(b) If a Lender determines that it is unlawful to maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower shall, upon the receipt by the Borrower of notice of such fact and demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), (x) prepay in full such LIBOR Rate Loans of that Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon and amounts required under Section 4.04, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof, if the Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loan and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate, the Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the LIBOR Rate component thereof until the Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate, at which time such Lender shall promptly notify the Agent and the Borrower, and the Agent shall return to computing interest rates based upon the LIBOR Rate for such Lender. If the Borrower is required to so prepay any LIBOR Rate Loan, then concurrently with such prepayment, the Borrower shall borrow from the affected Lender, in the amount of such repayment, a Base Rate Loan (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Agent without reference to the LIBOR Rate component of the Base Rate).

(c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans has been so terminated or suspended, the Borrower may elect, by giving notice to the Lender through the Agent that all Loans which would otherwise be made or maintained by the Lender as LIBOR Rate Loans shall be instead made or maintained as Base Rate Loans.

(d) Before giving any notice to the Agent under this Section, the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its LIBOR Rate Loans if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

4.03 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return.

(a) If any Lender determines in good faith that, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other than any change by way of imposition of or increase in reserve requirements included in the calculation of the LIBOR Rate) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation made after the Effective Date or (ii) the compliance by that Lender with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Loans the interest on which is determined by reference to the LIBOR Rate or participating in Letters of Credit, as applicable, or

any reduction in the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder, or, in the case of any Issuer, any increase in the cost to such Issuer of agreeing to issue, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any unpaid drawing under any Letter of Credit or any reduction in the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Issuer hereunder, then the Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, within 10 days after demand (with a copy of such demand to be sent to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reduction.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that (i) the introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation made after the Effective Date, (ii) any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation made after the Effective Date, (iii) any change in the interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof made after the Effective Date, or (iv) compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) or any corporation controlling such Lender with any Capital Adequacy Regulation made after the Effective Date, affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a consequence of its Commitments, loans, letters of credit, credits or obligations under this Agreement, then, within 10 days after demand of such Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increase.

4.04 Funding Losses. The Borrower shall reimburse each Lender upon demand and hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of:

(a) the failure of the Borrower to make on a timely basis any payment of principal of any LIBOR Rate Loan;

(b) the failure of the Borrower to borrow, continue or convert a Loan after the Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation;

(d) any continuation, conversion, prepayment (including pursuant to Section 2.09) or other payment of an LIBOR Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Period;

(e) any assignment of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the relevant Interest Period as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.07; or

(f) the automatic conversion under Section 2.04 of any LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Period;

including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section and under Section 4.03(a), each LIBOR Rate Loan made by a Lender (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded at the LIBOR Rate used in determining the LIBOR Rate for such LIBOR Rate Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing

in the interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Rate Loan was in fact so funded.

4.05 Inability to Determine Rates. If the Agent determines that for any reason that (a) deposits are not being offered to banks in the offshore interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such LIBOR Rate Loan, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the LIBOR Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, or (c) the LIBOR Rate applicable pursuant to Section 2.11(a) for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the applicable Lenders of funding such Loan, the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each applicable Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder shall be suspended, and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the LIBOR Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the LIBOR Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended, in each case until the Agent revokes such notice in writing, at which time neither the obligation referred to in clause (x) nor the utilization referred to in clause (y) shall be suspended. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it. If the Borrower does not revoke such Notice, then the applicable Lenders shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as proposed by the Borrower, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by the Borrower, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Base Rate Loans instead of LIBOR Rate Loans, as the case may be, and such Loans shall be assumed by the Borrower. The Agent shall, promptly following its determination that the reason for any suspension under this Section no longer exists, deliver a notice of revocation of such suspension to the Borrower and each applicable Lender.

4.06 Certificates of Lenders. Any Lender claiming reimbursement or compensation under this Article IV shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) contemporaneously with the demand for payment a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for, and a calculation of, the amount payable to such Lender hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error.

4.07 Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 4.03, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 4.02, if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, if any Lender cannot make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans under Section 4.02, if any Lender requests payment pursuant to Section 4.01 in an amount materially higher than amounts requested by other Lenders generally or if any other circumstance exists hereunder that gives the Borrower the right to replace a Lender as a party hereto, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.07), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(a) the Borrower shall have paid to the Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 11.07(a);

(b) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances and, other than in the case of a Defaulting Lender, any premium thereon (assuming for this purpose that the Loans of such Lender were being prepaid) from the assignee and any amounts payable by the Borrower pursuant to Section 4.01, 4.02 or 4.03 from the Borrower (it being understood that the Assignment and Assumption

relating to such assignment shall provide that any interest and fees that accrued prior to the effective date of the assignment shall be for the account of the replaced Lender and such amounts that accrue on and after the effective date of the assignment shall be for the account of the replacement Lender);

(c) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 4.03 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 4.01, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(d) such assignment does not conflict with applicable laws; and

(e) if such assignment is as a result of a failure of a Term B Lender to consent to a reduction in the interest rate of its Term B Loans prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Borrower shall have paid such Term B Lender a fee equal to 1.0% of the principal amount of its Term B Loans.

Each Lender agrees that, if the Borrower elects to replace such Lender in accordance with this Section 4.07, it shall promptly execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption to evidence the assignment and shall deliver to the Agent any Note (if Notes have been issued in respect of such Lender’s Loans) subject to such Assignment and Assumption; provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption shall not render such assignment invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register.

4.08 Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Borrower in this Article IV shall survive the payment of all other Obligations, and the Borrower will not have an obligation to pay any amount hereunder unless a demand is made within 180 days after the date upon which the Agent’s or applicable Lender’s right to reimbursement arises.

Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other

The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 9.02 and 11.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuer.

If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and consented to by the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuers, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (2) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and each Issuer directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above in this Section.

10.07 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender and each Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuers and the Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuers and the Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuers and the Agent under Sections 2.12, 3.08 and 11.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

10.10 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Agent shall, and the Lenders and the Issuers irrevocably authorize the Agent to, at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower:

(c) release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Security Agreement if, after giving effect to such release, the Borrower is in compliance with Section 7.12.

Upon request by the Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Security Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.10.

10.11 Withholding Tax.

(a) (i) If any Lender is a “foreign corporation, partnership or trust” within the meaning of the Code (a “Foreign Lender”) and such Lender claims exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under Sections 1441 or 1442 of the Code, such Lender agrees with and in favor of the Agent and the Borrower, to deliver to the Agent and the Borrower:

(A) if such Lender claims an exemption from, or a reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty, two properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN before the payment of any interest in the first calendar year and before the payment of any interest in each third succeeding calendar year during which interest may be paid under this Agreement;

(B) if such Lender claims that interest paid under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding tax because it is effectively connected with a United States trade or business of such Lender, two properly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI before the payment of any interest is due in the first taxable year of such Lender and in each succeeding taxable year of such Lender during which interest may be paid under this Agreement; and

(C) such other form or forms as may be required under the Code or other laws of the United States as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax.

Each such Lender agrees to promptly notify the Agent and the Borrower of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.

(ii) If any Foreign Lender claims exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, such Lender agrees with and in favor of the Agent and the Borrower to deliver to the Agent and the Borrower a Form W-8, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto (and, if such Lender delivers a Form W-8, a certificate representing that such Lender is not a “bank” for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) of the Borrower and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code)).

(b) If any Lender claims exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax treaty by providing IRS Form W-8BEN and such Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Lender, such Lender agrees to notify the Agent of the percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial owner of such Obligations. To the extent of such percentage amount, the Agent will treat such Lender’s IRS Form W-8BEN as no longer valid.

(c) If any Lender claiming exemption from United States withholding tax by filing IRS Form W-8ECI with the Agent sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers all or part of the Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Lender, such Lender agrees to undertake sole responsibility for complying with the withholding tax requirements imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code.

(d) If any Lender is entitled to a reduction in the applicable withholding tax, the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax after taking into account such reduction. However, if the forms or other documentation required by subsection (a) of this Section are not delivered to the Agent, then the Agent may withhold from any interest payment to such Lender not providing such forms or other documentation an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax imposed by Sections 1441 and 1442 of the Code, without reduction.

(e) If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify the Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to the Agent under this Section, together with all costs and expenses (including Attorney Costs). The obligation of the Lenders under this subsection shall survive the payment of all Obligations and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

10.12 Cash Management Agreements and Rate Swap Documents. No Secured Creditor (in its capacity as a party to a Cash Management Agreement and/or Rate Swap Document) that obtains the benefits of the remedies and application of proceeds provisions contained in any Loan Document by virtue of the provisions hereof shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article X to the contrary, the Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Cash Management Agreements and Rate Swap Documents unless the Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Agent may request, from the applicable Lender (or Affiliate thereof) that is party to such Cash Management Agreement or Rate Swap Document, as applicable and as the case may be.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the execution and delivery of all documentation required by Section 2.17 or 2.18, as applicable, to be delivered in connection with an Extension Amendment or an increase to the Term Commitments, as the case may be, this Agreement and each other applicable Loan Document (if any) shall be deemed amended without further action by any party to reflect, as applicable, the new Lenders and their new Commitments and any increase or extension in the Commitment or Loans of any existing Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders), except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely (other than as a result of the relative size of its Commitment) than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, and in each case subject to Section 2.18, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Agent and the Borrower (in each case, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (i) to add one or more additional term loan facilities to this Agreement (and to make any necessary or desirable changes to implement such additional term loan facilities) and to permit the extensions of credit and all related obligations and liabilities arising in connection therewith from time to time outstanding to share ratably (or on a basis subordinated to the existing facilities hereunder) in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the obligations and liabilities from time to time outstanding in respect of the existing facilities hereunder, and (ii) in connection with the foregoing, to permit, as deemed appropriate by the Agent and approved by the Borrower, the Lenders providing such additional credit facilities to participate in any required vote or action required to be approved by the Required Lenders or by any other number, percentage or class of Lenders hereunder.

If any Lender does not consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, consent or release with respect to any Loan Document that requires the consent of each Lender or each Lender directly affected thereby and that has been approved by the Required Lenders, the Borrower may replace such non-consenting Lender in accordance with Section 11.07.

11.02 Notices.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, all notices, requests, consents, approvals, waivers and other communications shall be in writing (including, unless the context expressly otherwise provides, by (i) facsimile transmission, provided that any matter transmitted by the Borrower by facsimile (A) shall be immediately confirmed by a telephone call to the recipient at the number specified on Schedule 11.02 (or, in the case of a Lender other than Bank of America, in such Lender’s Administrative Questionnaire), and (B) shall be followed promptly by delivery of a hard copy original thereof, and (ii) electronic transmission, as more fully set forth in clause (c) below) and mailed, faxed or delivered, to the address or facsimile number specified for notices on Schedule 11.02 (or, in the case of a Lender other than Bank of America, in such Lender’s Administrative Questionnaire then in effect for the delivery of notices that may contain material non-public information relating to the Borrower); or, as directed to the Borrower or the Agent, to such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties, and as directed to any other party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the Borrower and the Agent.

100

is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.

(c) Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuers hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites, but only by e-mail as to any electronic communications to any Issuer) pursuant to procedures approved by the Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or Issuer pursuant to Article II if such Lender or Issuer, as applicable, has notified the Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. The Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

The Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person identifying himself or herself as, and reasonably appearing to be, a Person authorized by the Borrower to give such notice and the Agent and the Lenders shall not have any liability to the Borrower or other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by the Agent or the Lenders in good faith in reliance upon such telephonic, facsimile or electronic notice. The obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans and L/C Obligations shall not be affected in any way or to any extent by any failure by the Agent and the Lenders to receive written confirmation of any telephonic, facsimile or electronic notice or the receipt by the Agent and the Lenders of a confirmation which is at variance with the terms understood by the Agent and the Lenders to be contained in the telephonic, facsimile or electronic notice.

11.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

11.04 Costs and Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred by the Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agent), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, due diligence, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated); (ii) all reasonable out of pocket expenses incurred by the Issuers in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder; and (iii) all out of pocket expenses incurred by the Agent, any Lender or any Issuer (including the fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for the

Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers in the aggregate), in connection with the enforcement or protection of their respective rights during the existence of any Default or Event of Default (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including their rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out of pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent, each Agent-Related Person, each Joint Lead Arranger, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each of the Related Parties of such Person (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for all Indemnitees (except to the extent that separate counsel would be required as the result of any conflict of interest)), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out of, or awarded against any Indemnitee, promptly following written demand therefor setting forth in reasonable detail a description of such claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, including the Transaction (including, without limitation, any litigation or proceeding brought by the Acquired Business, its stockholders or Affiliates) or, in the case of the Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents); (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuer to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit but excluding, solely as between the Borrower and such Issuer and without affecting the liability of the Borrower to any other Indemnitee, any action or omission for which such Issuer has agreed in writing it is not entitled to indemnification hereunder); (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Claim related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (A) arise from disputes between Indemnitees not in the Indemnitees’ capacities as Joint Lead Arrangers or Agent, that does not arise or result from any act or omission by the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof; (B) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee; or (C) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. In the case of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (any of the foregoing, a “Proceeding”) to which the indemnity in this Section applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such Proceeding is brought by the Borrower, its equity holders or creditors, whether or not an Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any aspect of the Transaction is consummated. The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding against an Indemnitee in respect of which indemnity could have been sought under this Section 11.04(b) by such Indemnitee unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such

102

Indemnitee from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and (ii) does not include any statement as to any admission.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) to be paid by it to any Agent-Related Person or any Related Party of such Agent-Related Person, each Lender severally agrees to pay to such Agent-Related Person such Lender’s Total Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent-Related Person in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party acting for such Agent-Related Person in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) (i) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.16 and (ii) shall not in any way limit the obligations of the Borrower under this Section 11.04.

(d) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by third parties of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, other than for direct, actual damages resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(e) The obligations in this Section shall survive payment of all other Obligations. At the election of any Indemnitee, the Borrower shall defend such Indemnitee using legal counsel satisfactory to such Indemnitee in such Person’s sole discretion, at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower. All amounts owing under this Section shall be paid within 30 days after demand (which demand shall be accompanied by a statement from the applicable Indemnitee setting forth such amounts in reasonable detail).

11.05 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of the Borrower or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that the Borrower makes a payment to the Agent or the Lenders, or the Agent or the Lenders exercise their right of set-off, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent upon demand its applicable Percentage of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Agent.

11.06 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Agent and each Lender.

103

11.07 Assignments, Participations, Etc.

(a) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment(s) and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 11.07(a), participations in L/C Obligations and in Swing Line Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of (1) an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Loans of a particular Class at the time owing to it and the related Commitment (if any) or (2) an assignment to an Affiliate of a Lender, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in clause (A) above, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment, determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date, shall not be less than (1) $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment of Revolving Loans and/or Revolving Commitments or (2) $1,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of Term Loans and/or Term Commitments, unless each of the Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met;

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not (A) apply to the Swing Line Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Swing Line Loans or (B) prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among the separate credit facilities hereunder on a non-pro rata basis;

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (i)(B) above and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (1) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (2) such assignment is to a Lender or an Affiliate of the assigning Lender or an Approved Fund; provided, that if the Borrower fails to respond to a request for a consent to the assignment within ten Business Days following the date such request is received by the Borrower, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment;

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

104

(C) the consent of each Issuer and the Swing Line Lender (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of Revolving Loans and/or Revolving Commitments to an Assignee other than a Revolving Lender.

(iv) Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made (A) to the Borrower or any Affiliate (other than an Affiliated Debt Fund) or Subsidiary of the Borrower or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries (except by the Defaulting Lender itself), or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).

(vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

(vii) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Agent pursuant to subsection (b) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.01, 4.03, 4.04 and 11.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the Assignee. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (c) below.

105

(b) Register. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Agent’s Payment Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. In addition, the Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(c) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower or any Affiliate or Subsidiary of the Borrower) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) the Borrower, the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 11.01 that affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (d) below, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.01 and 4.03 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.07(a). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.09 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participating interest under this clause (c) shall, as agent of the Borrower solely for the purposes of this clause (c), record in book entries maintained by such Lender the name and the amount of the participating interest of each Participant entitled to receive payments in respect of such participating interests.

(d) Limitations upon Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.01 or 4.03 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.01 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 10.11 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may, without the consent of the Agent or the Borrower, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

106

(f) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

(g) Resignation as an Issuer or Swing Line Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time any Revolving Lender acting as an Issuer or the Swing Line Lender assigns all of its Revolving Commitment and Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection (a) above, such Person may, as applicable, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower, the Lenders and the Agent, resign as an Issuer and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower and the Agent, resign as the Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation of an Issuer or the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Revolving Lenders (with the consent of such appointee) a successor Issuer or Swing Line Lender hereunder, as applicable; provided that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of such Person as an Issuer or as the Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If a Person resigns as an Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of an Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as an Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in unreimbursed amounts under Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 3.03). If a Person resigns as the Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to Section 2.06(c). Upon the appointment of a successor Issuer, (a) such successor Issuer shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuer and (b) such successor Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuer to effectively assume the obligations of such retiring Issuer with respect to such Letters of Credit. Upon the appointment of a successor Swing Line Lender, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swing Line Lender.

(h) Special Purpose Funding Vehicles. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Agent and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender is obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof; provided that nothing contained hereing shall make any SPC a “Lender” for purposes of this Agreement, obligate the Borrower or any other Loan Party to deal with such SPC directly, obligate the Borrower or any other Loan Party to any greater extent than they were obligated to the Granting Lender or increase costs or expenses of the Borrower or any other Loan Party. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) each SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.01 and 4.03 to the same extent as a Participant (as set forth above), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. In

107

furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrower and the Agent and with the payment of a processing fee in the amount of $3,500 (which processing fee may be waived by the Agent in its sole discretion), assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

11.08 Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of all information provided to it by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof, or by the Agent on the Borrower’s or such Subsidiary’s behalf, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall use any such information other than in connection with or in enforcement of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with other business now or hereafter existing or contemplated with the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof; except to the extent such information (i) was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of disclosure by the Lender or its Affiliates, or (ii) was or becomes available on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or a Subsidiary thereof, provided that such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Borrower known to the Lender; provided that any Lender may disclose such information (A) at the request or pursuant to any requirement of any Governmental Authority to which the Lender is subject or in connection with an examination of such Lender by any such authority; (B) pursuant to subpoena or other court process; (C) when required to do so in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law; (D) to the extent reasonably required in connection with any litigation or proceeding involving the Borrower to which the Agent, any Lender or their respective Affiliates may be party; (E) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document; (F) to such Lender’s independent auditors, trustees and other professional advisors; (G) to any Participant or Assignee, actual or potential, any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section 2.18 or to any direct, indirect, actual or prospective counterparty to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction related to the Obligations, provided that, in each case, such Person agrees in writing to keep such information confidential to the same extent required of the Lenders hereunder; (H) as to any Lender or its Affiliate, as expressly permitted under the terms of any other document or agreement regarding confidentiality to which the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof is party with such Lender or such Affiliate; (I) to its Affiliates, provided that such Affiliate is advised of the confidentiality requirements set forth herein and agrees in writing (for the benefit of the Borrower) to keep such information confidential to the same extent required hereunder (it being understood that each Lender shall be liable for the breach by any of its Affiliates of any such confidentiality requirement); and (J) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about such Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender. Each Lender will, so long as not prohibited from doing so by any Requirement of Law, notify the Borrower of any request for information of the type referred to in clause (B) or (C) above prior to disclosing such information so that the Borrower may seek appropriate relief from any applicable court or other Governmental Authority.

11.09 Set-off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, if an Event of Default exists or the Loans have been accelerated, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being waived by the Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits

108

(general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all Obligations and/or Guaranteed Obligations owing to such Lender or such Affiliate, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Agent or such Lender shall have made demand under this Agreement or any Loan Document and although such Obligations and/or Guaranteed Obligations may be denominated in a different currency, contingent or unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or such Affiliate; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application; and provided, further, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.11 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations and/or Guaranteed Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

11.10 Automatic Debits of Fees. With respect to any commitment fee, arrangement fee, letter of credit fee or other fee, or any other cost or expense (including Attorney Costs) due and payable to the Agent, any Issuer or Bank of America under the Loan Documents, the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes Bank of America to debit any deposit account of the Borrower with Bank of America in an amount such that the aggregate amount debited from all such deposit accounts does not exceed such fee or other cost or expense (it being understood and agreed that the Agent may from time to time in its sole discretion agree to any other methods of payment); provided that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Bank of America has given notice to the Borrower thereof not later than the date prior to the date of such debit. If there are insufficient funds in such deposit accounts to cover the amount of the fee or other cost or expense then due, such debits will be reversed so as not to create an overdraft (in whole or in part, in Bank of America’s sole discretion) and such amount not debited shall be deemed to be unpaid. No such debit under this Section shall be deemed a set-off.

11.11 Notification of Addresses, Lending Offices, Etc. Each Lender shall notify the Agent in writing of any changes in the address to which notices to the Lender should be directed, of addresses of any Lending Office, of payment instructions in respect of all payments to be made to it hereunder and of such other administrative information as the Agent shall reasonably request.

11.12 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same instrument.

11.13 Severability. The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.13, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Agent or any Issuer or Swing Line Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

11.14 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent and the Agent-Related Persons, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct

109

or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

11.15 Governing Law and Jurisdiction.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF); PROVIDED THAT THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS SHALL RETAIN ALL RIGHTS ARISING UNDER FEDERAL LAW.

(b) ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK SITTING IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY, AND BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS CONSENT, FOR THEMSELVES AND IN RESPECT OF THEIR RESPECTIVE PROPERTY, TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THOSE COURTS. THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION, INCLUDING ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OR BASED ON THE GROUNDS OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, WHICH ANY OF THEM MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN SUCH JURISDICTION IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT RELATED HERETO. THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND THE LENDERS EACH WAIVE PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER PROCESS, WHICH MAY BE MADE BY ANY OTHER MEANS PERMITTED BY NEW YORK LAW.

11.16 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER, THE LENDERS AND THE AGENT EACH WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY AGENT-RELATED PERSON, PARTICIPANT OR ASSIGNEE, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. THE BORROWER, THE LENDERS AND THE AGENT EACH AGREE THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF OR THEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

11.17 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, embodies the entire agreement and understanding among the Borrower, the Lenders and the Agent, and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements and understandings of such Persons, verbal or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

11.18 USA PATRIOT Act Notice. Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant

110

to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.

11.19 No Fiduciary or Implied Duties. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that in acting as a Lead Agent, no Lead Agent will have responsibility except as set forth in this Agreement and shall in no event be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties. The Borrower waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that it may have against any Lead Agent with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.

SCHEDULE 2.19

AUCTION PROCEDURES

This Schedule is intended to summarize certain basic terms of the reverse Dutch auction procedures pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.19 of the Agreement, of which this Schedule is a part. It is not intended to be a definitive statement of all of the terms and conditions of a reverse Dutch auction, the definitive terms and conditions for which shall be set forth in the applicable offering document. None of the Agent, the Auction Manager or any other Agent-Related Person, or any of their respective affiliates makes any recommendation pursuant to any offering document as to whether or not any Term Lender should sell its Term Loans to the Borrower pursuant to any offering documents, nor shall the decision by the Agent, the Auction Manager or any other Agent-Related Person (or any of their affiliates) in its respective capacity as a Term Lender to sell its Term Loans to the Borrower be deemed to constitute such a recommendation. Each Term Lender should make its own decision on whether to sell any of its Term Loans and, if it decides to do so, the principal amount of and price to be sought for such Term Loans. In addition, each Term Lender should consult its own attorney, business advisor or tax advisor as to legal, business, tax and related matters concerning each Auction and the relevant offering documents.

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Schedule have the meanings assigned to them in the Agreement.

(a) Notice Procedures. In connection with each Auction, the Borrower will provide notification to the Auction Manager (for distribution to the Term Lenders holding the applicable Term Loans that will be the subject of such Auction) (each, an “Auction Notice”). Each Auction Notice shall contain (i) the maximum principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of the Term Loans that the Borrower offers to purchase in such Auction (the “Auction Amount”), which shall be no less than $10,000,000 (unless another amount is agreed to by the Agent); (ii) the range of discounts to par (the “Discount Range”), expressed as a range of prices per $1,000 (in increments of $5), at which the Borrower would be willing to purchase Term Loans in such Auction; and (iii) the date on which such Auction will conclude, on which date Return Bids (as defined below) will be due by 1:00 p.m. (as such date and time may be extended by the Auction Manager at the request of the Borrower, such time the “Expiration Time”). Such Expiration Time may be extended for a period not exceeding three (3) Business Days upon notice by the Borrower to the Auction Manager received not less than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time; provided, that only one extension per offer shall be permitted. An Auction shall be regarded as a “failed auction” in the event that either (i) the Borrower withdraws such Auction in accordance with the terms hereof or (ii) the Expiration Time occurs with no Qualifying Bids (as defined below) having been received. In the event of a failed auction, the Borrower shall not be permitted to deliver a new Auction Notice prior to the date occurring three (3) Business Days after such withdrawal or Expiration Time, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower shall not initiate any Auction by delivering an Auction Notice to the Auction Manager until after the conclusion (whether successful or failed) of the previous Auction (if any), whether such conclusion occurs by withdrawal of such previous Auction or the occurrence of the Expiration Time of such previous Auction.

(b) Reply Procedures. In connection with any Auction, each Term Lender wishing to participate in such Auction shall, prior to the Expiration Time, provide the Auction Manager with a notice of participation, in the form included in the respective offering document (each, a “Return Bid”) which shall specify (i) a discount to par that must be expressed as a price per $1,000 (in increments of $5) in principal amount of the applicable Term Loans (the “Reply Price”) within the Discount Range and (ii) the principal amount of such Term Loans, in an amount not less than $500,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, that such Term Lender offers for sale at its Reply Price (the “Reply Amount”). A Term Lender may submit a Reply Amount that is less than the minimum amount and incremental amount requirements described above only if the Reply Amount comprises the entire amount of the applicable Term Loans held by such Term Lender. Term Lenders may only submit one Return Bid per Auction but each Return Bid may contain up to three (3) component bids, each of which may result in a separate Qualifying Bid and each of which will not be contingent on any other component bid submitted by such Term Lender resulting in a Qualifying Bid. In addition to the Return Bid, the participating Term Lender must execute and deliver, to be held by the Auction Manager, an assignment and acceptance in the form included in the offering document (each, an “Auction Assignment and Assumption”). The Borrower will not purchase any Term Loans at a price that is outside of the applicable Discount Range, nor will any Return Bids (including any component bids specified therein) submitted at a price that is outside such applicable Discount Range be considered in any calculation of the Applicable Threshold Price.

(c) Acceptance Procedures. Based on the Reply Prices and Reply Amounts received by the Auction Manager, the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Borrower, will calculate the lowest purchase price (the “Applicable Threshold Price”) for such Auction within the Discount Range for such Auction that will allow the Borrower to complete the Auction by purchasing the full Auction Amount (or such lesser amount of Term Loans for which the Borrower has received Qualifying Bids). The Borrower shall purchase the applicable Term Loans from each Term Lender whose Return Bid is within the Discount Range and contains a Reply Price that is equal to or less than the Applicable Threshold Price (each, a “Qualifying Bid”). All applicable Term Loans included in Qualifying Bids (including multiple component Qualifying Bids contained in a single Return Bid) received at a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at such applicable Reply Prices and shall not be subject to proration.

(d) Proration Procedures. All Term Loans offered in Return Bids (or, if applicable, any component thereof) constituting Qualifying Bids at the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at the Applicable Threshold Price; provided that if the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all applicable Term Loans for which Qualifying Bids have been submitted in any given Auction at the Applicable Threshold Price would exceed the remaining portion of the Auction Amount (after deducting all applicable Term Loans to be purchased at prices below the Applicable Threshold Price), the Borrower shall purchase the Term Loans for which the Qualifying Bids submitted were at the Applicable Threshold Price ratably based on the respective principal amounts offered and in an aggregate amount equal to the amount necessary to complete the purchase of the Auction Amount. No Return Bids or any component thereof will be accepted above the Applicable Threshold Price.

(e) Notification Procedures. The Auction Manager will calculate the Applicable Threshold Price and post the Applicable Threshold Price and proration factor onto an internet or intranet site (including IntraLinks or another electronic workspace) in accordance with the Auction Manager’s standard dissemination practices by 3:00 p.m. (local time) on the same Business Day as the date the Return Bids were due (as such due date may be extended in accordance with this Schedule). The Auction Manager will insert the principal amount of the applicable Term Loans to be assigned and the applicable settlement date into each applicable Auction Assignment and Assumption received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. Upon the request of the submitting Term Lender, the Auction Manager will promptly return any Auction Assignment and Assumption received in connection with a Return Bid that is not a Qualifying Bid.

(f) Auction Assignment and Assumption. Each Auction Notice and Auction Assignment and Assumption shall contain the following representations and warranties by the Borrower:

“No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or would result from this Auction.

As of the date hereof, except as previously disclosed in writing to the Agent and the Lenders, the Borrower represents and warrants that no Loan Party has any MNPI that both (a) has not been previously disclosed in writing to the Agent and the Lenders (other than because any such Lender does not wish to receive such MNPI) prior to the date hereof and (b) could reasonably be expected to be material to a Lender’s decision to participate in the Auction.”

(g) Additional Procedures. Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Borrower may withdraw an Auction only in the event that, as of such time, no Qualifying Bid has been received by the Auction Manager or the Borrower has failed, or in good faith believes it will fail, to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth in Section 2.19 of the Agreement which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of purchase of the Term Loans pursuant to the respective Auction. Furthermore, in connection with any Auction with respect to particular Term Loans, upon submission by a Term Lender of a Return Bid, such Term Lender will not have any withdrawal rights. Any Return Bid (including any component bid thereof) delivered to the Auction Manager may not be modified, revoked, terminated or cancelled by a Term Lender. However, an Auction may become void if the conditions to the purchase of the applicable Term Loans by the Borrower required by the terms and conditions of Section 2.19 of the Agreement are not met. The purchase price in respect of each Qualifying Bid for which purchase by the Borrower is required in accordance with the foregoing provisions shall be paid directly by the Borrower to the respective assigning Term Lender on a settlement date as determined jointly by the Borrower and the Auction Manager (which shall be not later than ten (10) Business Days after the date Return Bids are due). The Borrower shall execute each applicable Auction Assignment and Assumption received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. All questions as to the form of documents and validity and eligibility of Term Loans that are the subject of an Auction will be determined by the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Borrower, and their determination will be final and binding so long as such determination is not inconsistent with the terms of Section 2.19 of the Agreement or this Schedule. The Auction Manager’s

interpretation of the terms and conditions of the offering document, in consultation with the Borrower, will be final and binding so long as such interpretation is not inconsistent with the terms of Section 2.19 of the Agreement or this Schedule. None of the Agent, the Auction Manager, any other Agent-Related Person or any of their respective affiliates assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information concerning the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, or any of their affiliates (whether contained in an offering document or otherwise) or for any failure to disclose events that may have occurred and may affect the significance or accuracy of such information.

This Schedule shall not require the Borrower to initiate any Auction or the Agent or any Agent-Related Person to act as Auction Manager.

2.3 Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by the Borrower or any Guarantor hereunder or any set- off or application of funds of the Borrower or any Guarantor by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor, neither the Borrower nor any Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor for the payment of the Borrower Obligations or the Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations, nor shall the Borrower or any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Guarantor in respect of payments made by the Borrower or such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors by the Borrower on account of the Borrower Obligations are fully and finally paid in cash, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (unless cash collateralized on terms acceptable to the L/C Issuer or such Letter of Credit becomes a Supported Letter of Credit) and the Commitments are terminated. If any amount shall be paid to the Borrower or any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Borrower Obligations shall not have been fully and finally paid in cash, such amount shall be held by the Borrower or such Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors, segregated from other funds of the Borrower or such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Borrower or such Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by the Borrower or such Guarantor (duly indorsed by the Borrower or such Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Borrower Obligations or the Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.

2.4 Amendments, etc. with respect to the Borrower Obligations. The Borrower and each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Borrower or any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by the Borrower or any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Borrower Obligations or Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations made by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such Secured Creditor and any of the Borrower Obligations or Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations continued, and the Borrower Obligations or Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor

or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor (with the consent of such of the Borrower and the Guarantors as shall be required thereunder), and the Specified Agreements, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be) may (with the consent of such of the Borrower and the Guarantors as shall be required thereunder) deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor for the payment of the Borrower Obligations or Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations may (with the consent of such of the Borrower and the Guarantor as shall be required thereunder) be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Creditor shall, except to the extent set forth in, and for the benefit of the parties to, the agreements and instruments governing such Lien or guarantee, have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Borrower Obligations or Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations or for the guarantees contained in this Section 2 or any property subject thereto.

2.5 Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional.

(a) Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Borrower Obligations (other than any notice with respect to any Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligation with respect to which such Guarantor is a primary obligor and to which it is entitled pursuant to the applicable Specified Agreement) and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Section 2; the Borrower Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2; and all dealings between the Borrower and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Section 2. Each Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or any of the Guarantors with respect to the Borrower Obligations (other than any diligence, presentment, protest, demand or notice with respect to any Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligation with respect to which such Guarantor is a primary obligor and to which it is entitled pursuant to the applicable Specified Agreement). Each Guarantor understands and agrees that the guarantee of such Guarantor contained in this Section 2 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Borrower Obligations or any collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower or any other Person against the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or such Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for the Borrower Obligations, or of such Guarantor under the guarantee of such Guarantor contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any

other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Borrower Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability under this Section 2, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor against any Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

(b) The Borrower waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor upon the guarantee by the Borrower contained in this Section 2 or acceptance of the guarantee by the Borrower contained in this Section 2; the Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee by the Borrower contained in this Section 2; and all dealings between the Borrower and any of the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors, on the other hand, with respect to any Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligation likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee by the Borrower contained in this Section 2. The Borrower waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower with respect to the Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations. The Borrower understands and agrees that the guarantee by the Borrower contained in this Section 2 shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by any Person against the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or any Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the applicable Guarantor for the applicable Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations, or of the Borrower under its guarantee contained in this Section 2, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand under this Section 2 or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies under this Section 2 against the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against any Guarantor or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from any Guarantor or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of any Guarantor or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Borrower of any obligation or liability under this Section 2, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor against the Borrower under this Section 2. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

2.6 Reinstatement. The guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Borrower Obligations or Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

2.7 Payments. The Borrower and each Guarantor hereby guarantees that payments by it hereunder will be paid to the Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim (i) in the case of obligations in respect of Borrower Obligations arising under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in Dollars at the Agent’s Payment Office specified in the Credit Agreement and (ii) in the case of obligations in respect of any Borrower Hedge Agreement Obligations or any Guarantor Hedge Agreement Obligations, in the currency and at the place specified in the applicable Specified Agreement.

SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Credit Agreement and to induce the Lenders to make their respective extensions of credit to the Borrower thereunder, each Grantor hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that:

4.1 Representations in Credit Agreement. In the case of each Guarantor, the representations and warranties set forth in Article VI of the Credit Agreement as they relate to such Guarantor or to the Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, each of which is hereby incorporated herein by reference, are true and correct, and the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to rely on each of them as if they were made by such Guarantor and fully set forth herein, provided that each reference in each such representation and warranty to the Borrower’s knowledge shall, for the purposes of this Section 4.1, be deemed to be a reference to such Guarantor’s knowledge.

4.2 Title; No Other Liens. Except for the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors pursuant to this Agreement and the other Liens permitted to exist on the Collateral by the Credit Agreement, such Grantor owns each item of the Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens. On the date hereof, no financing statement or other public notice with respect to all or any part of the Collateral is on file or of record in any public office, except such as have been filed in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors, pursuant to this Agreement or as are permitted by the Credit Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that any Grantor may, as part of its business, grant licenses to third parties to use Intellectual Property owned or developed by a Grantor. For purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such licensing activity shall not constitute a “Lien” on Intellectual Property.

4.3 Perfected First Priority Liens. Except for Deposit Accounts and for securities accounts, assets credited thereto and security entitlements in respect thereof, in each case as to which Section 5.5 hereof does not require the delivery of a control agreement, the security interests granted pursuant to this Agreement (a) upon completion of the filings and other actions specified on Schedule 3 (which, in the case of all filings and other documents referred to on said Schedule and required to be delivered hereunder, have been delivered to the Administrative Agent in completed and duly executed form) will constitute valid perfected security interests in all of the Collateral for which a lien can be perfected by the filing of a financing statement or by possession, control or filings with the USPTO or the United States Copyright Office in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as collateral security for such Grantor’s Obligations, enforceable in accordance with the terms hereof against all creditors of such Grantor and any Persons purporting to purchase any Collateral from such Grantor and except buyers in the ordinary course that take free of liens pursuant to the UCC and (b) are prior to all other Liens on the Collateral in existence on the date hereof except for Liens permitted by the Credit Agreement.

4.4 Jurisdiction of Organization; Chief Executive Office. On the date hereof, such Grantor’s correct legal name, jurisdiction of organization, organizational identification number (if any) from its jurisdiction of organization, and the location of such Grantor’s chief executive office or sole place of business, as the case may be, are specified on Schedule 4. On the date hereof, such Grantor has furnished to the Administrative Agent a certified charter, certificate of incorporation or other organization document and good standing certificate as of a date which is recent to the date hereof.

4.7 Investment Property.

(a) The shares of Pledged Stock pledged by such Grantor hereunder constitute all the issued and outstanding shares of all classes of the Capital Stock of each Issuer owned by such Grantor (other than any shares that constitute Excluded Assets) or, in the case of Foreign Subsidiary Voting Stock, if less, 66% of the outstanding Foreign Subsidiary Voting Stock of each relevant Issuer.

(b) All the shares of the Pledged Stock have been duly and validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable.

(c) Each of the Pledged Notes issued by any Loan Party and to such Grantor’s knowledge, each of the Pledged Notes issued by any other Person, constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the obligor with respect thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(d) Such Grantor is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good and marketable title to, the Investment Property pledged by it hereunder, free of any and all Liens or options in favor of, any other Person, except the security interest created by this Agreement and Liens permitted by the Credit Agreement.

(b) Excluding obligors with respect to Medicare and Medicaid Receivables, none of the obligors on any Receivable is a Governmental Authority, except for Receivables constituting not more than 5% of the face amount of all Receivables.

(c) The amounts represented by such Grantor to the Secured Creditors from time to time as owing to such Grantor in respect of the Receivables will at such times be accurate in all material respects.

4.9 Intellectual Property.

(a) Schedule 7 lists the registered Intellectual Property (other than trade secrets) owned by such Grantor in its own name on the date hereof that is registered or applied for with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office.

(b) On the date hereof, all material Intellectual Property of such Grantor described on Schedule 7 is in compliance in all material respects with applicable legal requirements (including payment of maintenance fees and the like) and, to the best of such Grantor’s knowledge, all such rights are valid, subsisting, and enforceable, except in each case to the extent the failure to be in such compliance would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) On the date hereof, to the best of such Grantor’s knowledge, the conduct by such Grantor of its business does not infringe upon, misappropriate, constitute an unauthorized use of or otherwise violate the Intellectual Property rights of any other Person except to the extent such violation would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as set forth in Schedule 8, no claim or demand of any Person has

been made in writing, nor is there any proceeding that is pending or to the knowledge of such Grantor threatened in writing, which (in any such case) (i) challenges the rights of such Grantor in respect of any Intellectual Property or (ii) asserts that such Grantor is infringing upon, misappropriating, making an unauthorized use of or otherwise violating or in conflict with, or is required to pay any royalty, license fee, charge or other amount with regard to, any Intellectual Property, except with respect to clause (i) or (ii) as would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

(f) Except as set forth in Schedule 8, no action or proceeding is pending, or, to the knowledge of such Grantor, threatened, on the date hereof (i) seeking to limit, cancel or question the validity of any material Intellectual Property or such Grantor’s ownership interest therein, or (ii) which is reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on the value of any Intellectual Property.

SECTION 5. COVENANTS

Each Grantor covenants and agrees with the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors that, from and after the date of this Agreement until the Obligations (other than any contingent indemnification or similar obligation not yet due and payable, and any Obligation owing under any Rate Swap Document or Cash Management Agreement) shall have been paid in full, no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding (unless cash collateralized on terms acceptable to the L/C Issuer or such Letter of Credit becomes a Supported Letter of Credit) and the Commitments shall have terminated:

5.1 Covenants in Credit Agreement. In the case of each Guarantor, such Guarantor shall take, or shall refrain from taking, as the case may be, each action that is necessary to be taken or not taken by it, as the case may be, so that no Default or Event of Default is caused by the failure to take such action or to refrain from taking such action by such Guarantor or any of its Subsidiaries.

5.2 Delivery of Instruments and Chattel Paper. If any amount payable under or in connection with any of the Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any Instrument, Certificated Security or Chattel Paper, such Instrument, Certificated Security or Chattel Paper shall be immediately delivered to the Administrative Agent, duly indorsed in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, to be held as Collateral pursuant to this Agreement; provided, that the Grantors shall not be obligated to deliver to the Administrative Agent any Instruments or Chattel Paper held by any Grantor at any time to the extent that the aggregate face amount of all such Instruments and Chattel Paper held by such Grantor at such time does not exceed $2,000,000.

5.3 Maintenance of Insurance.

(a) Except to the extent the failure to so maintain could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Grantor shall maintain, and shall cause each Subsidiary to maintain, with financially sound and reputable independent insurers, insurance with respect to its properties and business against loss or damage of the kinds customarily insured against by Persons engaged in the same or similar business, of such types and in such amounts as are customarily carried under similar circumstances by

such other Persons; provided that self insurance of risks and in amounts customary in the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ industry shall be permitted; provided, further, that all such insurance shall (i) provide for not less than 30 days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent of termination, lapse or cancellation of such insurance, (ii) name the Administrative Agent as additional insured on behalf of the Secured Creditors (in the case of liability insurance) or loss payee (in the case of property insurance), as applicable and (iii) be reasonably satisfactory in all other respects to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Upon the Administrative Agent’s request, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a report of a reputable insurance broker with respect to such insurance and such supplemental reports with respect thereto as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request.

5.4 Payment of Obligations. Such Grantor will pay and discharge or otherwise satisfy at or before maturity or before they become delinquent, as the case may be, all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges or levies imposed upon the Collateral unless the same is being contested in good faith by appropriate action and reserves in conformity with GAAP with respect thereto have been provided on the books of such Grantor.

5.5 Maintenance of Perfected Security Interest; Further Documentation.

(b) In addition to the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor will furnish to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the assets and property of such Grantor and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

(c) To each Grantor’s knowledge, each of such Grantor’s Deposit Accounts existing on the date hereof is set forth on Schedule 9 and such Grantor will on the Closing Date execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent Deposit Account control agreements in favor of the Administrative Agent with respect to each such Deposit Account (other than the Excluded Accounts) in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Such Grantor will execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent from time to time, promptly (and in any event within 45 days) after opening any new Deposit Account (other than an Excluded Account), a Deposit Account control agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent with respect to such new Deposit Account (other than an Excluded Account) in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of the Administrative Agent, and at the sole expense of such Grantor, such Grantor will promptly and duly execute and deliver, and have recorded, such further instruments and documents and take such further actions as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, including (i) the filing of any financing or continuation statements under the Uniform Commercial Code (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interests created hereby and (ii) in the case of Investment Property, Deposit Accounts and Letter-of-Credit Rights, taking, to the extent required by the Credit Agreement or herein,

any actions necessary to enable the Administrative Agent to obtain “control” (within the meaning of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code) with respect thereto.

5.6 Changes in Name, etc. Such Grantor will not, except upon 15 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and delivery to the Administrative Agent of all additional executed financing statements and other documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to maintain the validity, perfection and priority of the security interests provided for herein:

(a) change its jurisdiction of organization or the location of its chief executive office or sole place of business from that referred to in Section 4.4; or

(b) change its name.

5.7 Notices. Such Grantor will advise the Administrative Agent and the Lenders promptly, in reasonable detail, of:

(a) any Lien (other than security interests created hereby or Liens permitted under the Credit Agreement) on any of the Collateral which would adversely affect the ability of the Administrative Agent to exercise any of its remedies hereunder; and

(b) the occurrence of any other event which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the aggregate value of the Collateral or on the security interests created hereby.

5.8 Investment Property.

(a) If such Grantor shall become entitled to receive or shall receive any certificate (including any certificate representing a dividend or a distribution in connection with any reclassification, increase or reduction of capital or any certificate issued in connection with any reorganization), option or rights in respect of the Capital Stock of any Issuer pledged hereunder, whether in addition to, in substitution of, as a conversion of, or in exchange for, any shares of the Pledged Stock, or otherwise in respect thereof, such Grantor shall accept the same as the agent of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors, hold the same in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors and deliver the same forthwith to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent, if required, together with an undated stock power covering such certificate duly executed in blank by such Grantor and with, if the Administrative Agent so requests, signature guaranteed, to be held by the Administrative Agent, subject to the terms hereof, as additional collateral security for the Obligations. Any sums paid upon or in respect of Investment Property pledged hereunder upon the liquidation or dissolution of any Issuer other than a Grantor shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent to be held by it hereunder as additional collateral security for the Obligations, and in case any distribution of capital shall be made on or in respect of Investment Property, or any property shall be distributed upon or with respect to the Investment Property not issued by a Grantor pursuant to the recapitalization or reclassification of the capital of such Issuer or pursuant to the reorganization thereof, the property so distributed shall, unless otherwise subject to a perfected security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent, be delivered to the Administrative Agent to be held by it hereunder as additional collateral security for the Obligations. If any sums of money or property so paid or distributed in respect of Investment Property pledged hereunder shall be received by such Grantor, such Grantor shall, until such money or property is paid or delivered to the Administrative Agent, hold such money or property in trust for the Secured Creditors, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, as additional collateral security for the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Grantors shall not be required to pay over to the Administrative Agent or deliver to the Administrative Agent as Collateral any proceeds of any liquidation or dissolution of any Issuer, or any

distribution of capital or property in respect of any Investment Property, to the extent that (i) such liquidation, dissolution or distribution, if treated as a Disposition of the relevant Issuer or of such Investment Property, would be permitted by the Credit Agreement and (ii) the proceeds thereof are applied toward prepayment of Loans and reduction of Commitments to the extent required by the Credit Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing under this Section 5.8(a) shall apply to any Excluded Assets.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor will not with respect to any Investment Property constituting Collateral (i) vote to enable, or take any other action to permit, any Issuer to issue any stock or other equity securities of any nature or to issue any other securities convertible into or granting the right to purchase or exchange for any stock or other equity securities of any nature of any Issuer, unless such securities are delivered to the Administrative Agent, concurrently with the issuance thereof, to be held by the Administrative Agent as Collateral, (ii) sell, assign, transfer, exchange, or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option with respect to, the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof (except pursuant to a transaction permitted (or not prohibited) by the Credit Agreement), (iii) create, incur or permit to exist any Lien with respect to, any of the Investment Property or Proceeds thereof, or any interest therein, except for Permitted Liens or (iv) enter into any agreement or undertaking restricting the right or ability of such Grantor or the Administrative Agent to sell, assign or transfer any of the Pledged Securities or Proceeds thereof other than in connection with a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement.

(c) In the case of each Grantor which is an Issuer with respect to any Investment Property constituting Collateral, such Issuer agrees that (i) it will be bound by the terms of this Agreement relating to the Pledged Securities issued by it and will comply with such terms insofar as such terms are applicable to it, (ii) it will notify the Administrative Agent promptly in writing of the occurrence of any of the events described in Section 5.8(a) with respect to the Pledged Securities issued by it and (iii) the terms of Sections 6.3(c) and 6.7 shall apply to it, mutatis mutandis, with respect to all actions that may be required of it pursuant to Section 6.3(c) or 6.7 with respect to the Pledged Securities issued by it.

(d) Each Issuer with respect to any Investment Property constituting Collateral that is a partnership or a limited liability company (i) confirms that none of the terms of any equity interest issued by it provides that such equity interest is a “security” within the meaning of Sections 8-102 and 8-103 of the New York UCC (a “Security”), (ii) agrees that it will take no action to cause or permit any such equity interest to become a Security, (iii) agrees that it will not issue any certificate representing any such equity interest and (iv) agrees that if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such equity interest shall be or become a Security, such Issuer will (and the Grantor that holds such equity interest hereby instructs such Issuer to) comply with instructions originated by the Administrative Agent with respect to such equity interests (or with respect to any additions thereto or replacements or proceeds thereof whether now existing or hereafter acquired) during the continuance of an Event of Default, without further consent by such Grantor.

5.9 Receivables.

(a) Other than in the ordinary course of business consistent with its past practice, or otherwise in its best business judgment, such Grantor will not (i) grant any extension of the time of payment of any Receivable, (ii) compromise or settle any Receivable for less than the full amount thereof, (iii) release, wholly or partially, any Person liable for the payment of any Receivable, (iv) allow any credit or discount whatsoever on any Receivable or (v) amend, supplement or modify any Receivable in any manner that could adversely affect the value thereof.

(b) Such Grantor will deliver to the Administrative Agent a copy of each material demand, notice or document received by it that questions or calls into doubt the validity or enforceability of more

than 5% of the aggregate amount of the then outstanding Receivables (excluding Medicare and Medicaid Receivables).

5.10 Intellectual Property.

(a) Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will (i) continue to use each material Trademark owned by it in each international class for the goods and/or services set forth in its applications or registrations to maintain such Trademark in full force, free from any claim of abandonment for non-use, (ii) maintain the past quality of products and services offered under such Trademark, (iii) use such Trademark with the appropriate notice of registration and all other notices and legends required by applicable Requirements of Law, (iv) not adopt or use any xxxx which is confusingly similar or a colorable imitation of such Trademark unless the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors, shall obtain a perfected security interest in such xxxx pursuant to this Agreement, and (v) not (and not authorize any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) knowingly do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby such Trademark may become invalidated or impaired in any way; unless, in each case, such Grantor, in the exercise of its best business judgment, deems it not commercially reasonable to do so under the circumstances.

(b) Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) will not knowingly do any act, or knowingly omit to do any act, whereby any material Patent may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public; unless such Grantor, in the exercise of its best business judgment, deems it commercially reasonable to do so under the circumstances.

(c) Such Grantor (either itself or through licensees) (i) will not (and will not permit any licensee or sublicensee thereof to) knowingly do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any material portion of the Copyrights may become invalidated or otherwise impaired and (ii) will not knowingly do any act whereby any material portion of the Copyrights may fall into the public domain unless, in each case, such Grantor, in the exercise of its best business judgment, deems it commercially reasonable to do so under the circumstances.

(e) Such Grantor will promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in writing if it knows that any application or registration relating to any material Intellectual Property owned by it may become forfeited, abandoned or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of, or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any court or tribunal in any country) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of, or the validity of, any material Intellectual Property owned by it or such Grantor’s right to register the same or to own and maintain the same.

(f) Whenever such Grantor, either by itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the registration of any Intellectual Property with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, such Grantor shall report such filing to the Administrative Agent within 30 Business Days after the last day of the fiscal quarter in which such filing occurs. Upon request of the Administrative Agent, such Grantor shall execute, deliver and authorize the recording of any and all agreements, instruments, documents, and papers as the Administrative Agent may request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s and the Secured Creditors’ security interest in any Copyright, Patent or Trademark and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby.

(g) Such Grantor will, at its own expense, take all steps which such Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances, which may include any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue each application relating to any material Intellectual Property (and to obtain the relevant registration) and to maintain each registration of the material Intellectual Property, including filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use and affidavits of incontestability.

(h) In the event that any other Person infringes upon, misappropriates, makes an unauthorized use of or otherwise violates any material Intellectual Property, such Grantor shall (i) take such actions as such Grantor shall reasonably deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property and (ii) if such Intellectual Property is of material economic value, promptly notify the Administrative Agent after it learns thereof.

(i) Such Grantor shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and suitable for filing in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, (i) a patent security agreement in the form attached hereto as Annex III for all Patents owned by such Grantor and (ii) a trademark security agreement in the form attached hereto as Annex IV for all Trademarks owned by such Grantor.

5.11 Commercial Tort Claims. If any Grantor shall at any time commence a suit, action or proceeding with respect to any Commercial Tort Claim held by it with a value which such Grantor reasonably believes to be of $1,000,000 or more, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor and describing the details thereof and shall grant to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 6. REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

6.1 Certain Matters Relating to Receivables.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall have the right, at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to make test verifications of the Receivables in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and each Grantor shall furnish all such assistance and information as the Administrative Agent may require in connection with such test verifications. At any time and from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon the Administrative Agent’s request and at the expense of the relevant Grantor, such Grantor shall cause independent public accountants or others satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to furnish to the Administrative Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Receivables.

(b) The Administrative Agent hereby authorizes each Grantor to collect such Grantor’s Receivables, subject to the Administrative Agent’s direction and control (to the extent permitted by applicable law) after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and (to the extent permitted by applicable law) the Administrative Agent may curtail or terminate said authority at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default; provided that Medicare and Medicaid Receivables shall be in the sole dominion and control of the Grantor. If required by the Administrative Agent (to the extent permitted by applicable law and governmental regulation) at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payments of Receivables, when collected by any Grantor, (i) shall be forthwith (and, in any event, within two Business Days) deposited by such Grantor

in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent if required, in a Collateral Account maintained under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent, subject to withdrawal by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Secured Creditors only as provided in Section 6.5, and (ii) until so turned over, shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors, segregated from other funds of such Grantor. Each such deposit of Proceeds of Receivables shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit.

(c) At the Administrative Agent’s request (to the extent permitted by applicable law), at any time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall deliver to the Administrative Agent all original and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the agreements and transactions which gave rise to the Receivables, including all original orders, invoices and shipping receipts.

(d) At any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor will cooperate with the Administrative Agent to establish a system of lockbox accounts, under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent (to the extent permitted by applicable law), into which all Receivables shall be paid and from which all collected funds will be transferred to a Collateral Account.

6.2 Communications with Obligors; Grantors Remain Liable.

(a) The Administrative Agent in its own name or in the name of others may at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default communicate with obligors under the Receivables to verify with them to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Receivables.

(b) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent (to the extent permitted by applicable law) at any time after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall notify obligors on the Receivables that the Receivables have been assigned to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Secured Creditors and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to the Administrative Agent.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each of the Receivables (or any agreement giving rise thereto) to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Creditor shall have any obligation or liability under any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor of any payment relating thereto, nor shall the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Grantor under or pursuant to any Receivable (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

6.3 Pledged Stock.

(a) Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall have given notice to the relevant Grantor of the Administrative Agent’s intent to exercise its corresponding rights pursuant to Section 6.3(b), each Grantor shall be permitted to receive all cash dividends

paid in respect of the Pledged Stock and all payments made in respect of the Pledged Notes, in each case paid in the normal course of business of the relevant Issuer, to the extent permitted by the Credit Agreement, and to exercise all voting and corporate rights with respect to the Pledged Securities; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast or corporate right exercised or other action taken which, in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable judgment, would impair the Collateral or which would be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing and the Administrative Agent shall give notice of its intent to exercise such rights to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have the right to receive any and all cash dividends, payments or other Proceeds paid in respect of the Pledged Securities constituting Collateral and make application thereof to the Obligations in the order set forth in Section 6.5, and (ii) any or all of the Pledged Securities constituting Collateral shall be registered in the name of the Administrative Agent or its nominee, and the Administrative Agent or its nominee may thereafter exercise (x) all voting, corporate and other rights pertaining to such Pledged Securities at any meeting of shareholders of the relevant Issuer or Issuers or otherwise and (y) any and all rights of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other rights, privileges or options pertaining to such Pledged Securities as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including the right to exchange at its discretion any and all of the Pledged Securities upon the merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate structure of any Issuer, or upon the exercise by any Grantor or the Administrative Agent of any right, privilege or option pertaining to such Pledged Securities, and in connection therewith, the right to deposit and deliver any and all of the Pledged Securities with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it, but the Administrative Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(c) Each Grantor hereby authorizes and instructs each Issuer of any Pledged Securities pledged by such Grantor hereunder to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from the Administrative Agent in writing that (x) states that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without any other or further instructions from such Grantor, and each Grantor agrees that each Issuer shall be fully protected in so complying, and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby, pay any dividends or other payments with respect to the Pledged Securities directly to the Administrative Agent.

6.4 Proceeds to be Turned Over To Administrative Agent. In addition to the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors specified in Section 6.1 with respect to payments of Receivables, if an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, all Proceeds received by any Grantor consisting of cash, checks and Instruments shall be held by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Grantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Grantor (duly indorsed by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent, if required). All Proceeds received by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account maintained under its sole dominion and control. All Proceeds while held by the Administrative Agent in a Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors) shall continue to be held as collateral security for all the Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in Section 6.5.

6.5 Application of Proceeds. At such intervals as may be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, or, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time at the Administrative Agent’s election, the Administrative Agent may apply all or any part of Proceeds constituting

Collateral, whether or not held in any Collateral Account, and any proceeds of the guarantee set forth in Section 2, in payment of the Obligations in the following order:

First, to pay incurred and unpaid fees and expenses of the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents;

Second, to the Administrative Agent, for application by it towards payment of amounts then due and owing and remaining unpaid in respect of the Obligations, pro rata among the Secured Creditors according to the amounts of the Obligations then due and owing and remaining unpaid to the Secured Creditors;

Third, to the Administrative Agent, for application by it towards prepayment of the Obligations, pro rata among the Secured Creditors according to the amounts of the Obligations then held by the Secured Creditors; and

Fourth, any balance of such Proceeds remaining after the Obligations shall have been paid in full, no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding and the Commitments shall have terminated shall be paid over to the Borrower or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same.

6.6 Code and Other Remedies. If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Creditors, may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to them in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to the Obligations, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the New York UCC or any other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor or elsewhere, subject to applicable law, upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk. The Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released. Each Grantor further agrees, at the Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.6 with respect to any Grantor’s Collateral, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral of such Grantor or in any way relating to the Collateral of such Grantor or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors hereunder with respect thereto, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations of such Grantor, in the order specified in Section 6.5, and only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including Section 9- 615(a)(3) of the New York UCC, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands it may acquire against the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor arising out of the exercise by them of any rights

hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.

6.7 Sale of Pledged Stock.

(a) Each Grantor recognizes that the Administrative Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any or all the Pledged Stock, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws or otherwise, and may be compelled to resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers which will be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. The Administrative Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any of the Pledged Stock for the period of time necessary to permit the Issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if such Issuer would agree to do so.

(b) Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of all or any portion of the Pledged Stock pursuant to this Section 6.7 valid and binding and in compliance with any and all other applicable Requirements of Law. Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 6.7 will cause irreparable injury to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors, that the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 6.7 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement.

6.8 Deficiency. Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay its Obligations and the reasonable fees and disbursements of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor to collect such deficiency.

SECTION 7. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

7.1 Administrative Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact, etc.

(a) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent and any officer or agent thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives the Administrative Agent the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any or all of the following:

(i) in the name of such Grantor or its own name, or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any checks, drafts, notes, acceptances or other instruments for the payment of moneys due under any Receivable or with respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed

appropriate by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of collecting any and all such moneys due under any Receivable or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable (to the extent permitted by applicable law);

(ii) in the case of any Intellectual Property, execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Administrative Agent may request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s and the Secured Creditors’ security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

(iii) pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral, effect any repairs or any insurance called for by the terms of this Agreement and pay all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof;

(iv) execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 6.6 or 6.7, any indorsements, assignments or other instruments of conveyance or transfer with respect to the Collateral;

(v) (1) direct any party liable for any payment under any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct (to the extent permitted by applicable law); (2) ask or demand for, collect, and receive payment of and receipt for, any and all moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral (to the extent permitted by applicable law); (3) sign and indorse any invoices, freight or express bills, bills of lading, storage or warehouse receipts, drafts against debtors, assignments, verifications, notices and other documents in connection with any of the Collateral; (4) commence and prosecute any suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect the Collateral or any portion thereof and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral; (5) defend any suit, action or proceeding brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral; (6) settle, compromise or adjust any such suit, action or proceeding and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; (7) assign any Copyright, Patent or Trademark (along with the goodwill of the business to which any such Copyright, Patent or Trademark pertains), throughout the world for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Administrative Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (8) generally, sell, transfer, pledge and make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with any of the Collateral as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes, and do, at the Administrative Agent’s option and such Grantor’s expense, at any time, or from time to time, all acts and things which the Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon the Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s and the Secured Creditors’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of this Agreement, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do; and

(vi) license or sublicense whether on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any Intellectual Property for such term and on such conditions and in such manner as the Administrative Agent shall in its sole judgment determine and, in connection therewith, such Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors a royalty-free, world- wide irrevocable license of its Intellectual Property.

Anything in this Section 7.1(a) to the contrary notwithstanding, the Administrative Agent agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 7.1(a) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and then subject to applicable law.

(b) If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein, the Administrative Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such agreement.

(c) The expenses of the Administrative Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.1, together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the rate per annum at which interest would then be payable on past due Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans under the Credit Agreement, from the date of payment by the Administrative Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to the Administrative Agent on demand.

(d) Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

7.2 Duty of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under Section 9-207 of the New York UCC or otherwise, shall be to deal with it in the same manner as the Administrative Agent deals with similar property for its own account. Neither the Administrative Agent, any Secured Creditor nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The powers conferred on the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors hereunder are solely to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the Secured Creditors’ interests in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor to exercise any such powers. The Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

7.3 Execution of Financing Statements. Pursuant to any applicable law, each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to file or record financing statements and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to the Collateral without the signature of such Grantor in such form and in such offices as the Administrative Agent determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Each Grantor authorizes the Administrative Agent to use the collateral description “all personal property” or “all assets” or words of similar effect in any such financing statements, with the Excluded Assets described as an exclusion from the collateral described therein. Each Grantor hereby ratifies and authorizes the filing by the Administrative Agent of any financing statement with respect to the Collateral made prior to the date hereof.

7.4 Authority of Administrative Agent. Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between the Administrative Agent and the Grantors, the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Creditors with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation, or entitlement, to make any

inquiry respecting such authority. Notwithstanding any other provision herein or in any Loan Document, the only duty or responsibility of the Administrative Agent to any Qualified Counterparty under this Agreement is the duty to remit to such Qualified Counterparty any amounts to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 6.5.

SECTION 8. MISCELLANEOUS

8.1 Amendments in Writing. None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 11.01 of the Credit Agreement. No consent of any Qualified Counterparty shall be required for any waiver, amendment, supplement or other modification to this Agreement.

8.2 Notices. All notices, requests and demands to or upon the Administrative Agent or any Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 11.02 of the Credit Agreement; provided that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Guarantor shall be addressed to such Guarantor at its notice address set forth on Schedule 1.

8.3 No Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Creditor shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 8.1), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or such Secured Creditor would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.

8.4 Enforcement Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) Each Guarantor agrees to pay, or reimburse each Secured Creditor and the Administrative Agent for, all its reasonable costs and expenses incurred in collecting against such Guarantor under the guarantee contained in Section 2 or otherwise enforcing or preserving any rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to each Secured Creditor and of counsel to the Administrative Agent to the same extent the Borrower is required to do so pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

(b) Each Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors harmless from, any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any and all stamp, excise, sales or other taxes which may be payable or determined to be payable with respect to any of the Collateral or in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to the same extent the Borrower is required to do so pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

(c) Each Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement to the extent the Borrower would be required to do so pursuant to Section 11.04 of the Credit Agreement.

(d) The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

8.5 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each Grantor and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors and their successors and assigns; provided that no Grantor may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

8.6 Set-Off. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and each Secured Creditor at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing pursuant to Section 11.09 of the Credit Agreement, without prior notice to such Grantor or any other Grantor, any such notice being expressly waived by each Grantor to set-off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent or such Secured Creditor to or for the credit or the account of such Grantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Administrative Agent or such Secured Creditor may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of such Grantor to the Administrative Agent or such Secured Creditor hereunder and claims of every nature and description of the Administrative Agent or such Secured Creditor against such Grantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or otherwise, as the Administrative Agent or such Secured Creditor may elect, whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. The Administrative Agent and each Secured Creditor shall notify such Grantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made by the Administrative Agent or such Secured Creditor of the proceeds thereof, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Secured Creditor under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which the Administrative Agent or such Secured Creditor may have.

8.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts (including by telecopy), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.

8.8 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

8.9 Section Headings. The Section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

8.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the Grantors, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Creditors with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Creditor relative to subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.
