Upon demand made by the Swing Line Lender, which shall occur not more than once per week, each Lender shall, according to its Pro Rata Share, promptly provide to the Swing Line Lender its purchase price therefor in an amount equal to its participation therein. The obligation of each Lender to so provide its purchase price to the Swing Line Lender shall be absolute and unconditional (except for modifications or demand made by the Swing Line Lender) and shall not be affected by the existence of an uncured Event of Default; provided that no Lender shall be obligated to purchase its Pro Rata Share of (i) the Swing Line Loans to the extent that, after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan, advances under the Revolving Commitment exceed the Borrowing Availability, (ii) Swing Line Loans to the extent that, after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan, the aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding exceed the Swing Line Sublimit, or (iii) any Swing Line Loan made (absent the consent of all of the Lenders) during the continuation of an Event of Default if written notice of such Event of Default shall have been provided to Swing Line Lender by Administrative Agent or a Lender sufficiently in advance of the making of such Swing Line Loan.

In each case, Administrative Agent shall automatically provide the advances made by each Lender to the Swing Line Lender (which the Swing Line Lender shall then apply to the outstanding amount of the Swing Line Loans). In the event that Borrower fails to request a Revolving Loan within the time specified by this Section 2.2.6 on any such date, Administrative Agent may, but is not required to, without

notice to or the consent of Borrower, cause Base Rate Loans to be made by the Lenders under the Revolving Commitment in amounts which are sufficient to reduce the outstanding amount of the Swing Line Loans as required above. The proceeds of such advances shall be paid directly to the Swing Line Lender for application to the outstanding amount of the Swing Line Loans.

2.3 Letters of Credit.

2.3.1 As a sublimit under the Revolving Commitment and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, at any time and from time to time from the Closing Date through the Letter of Credit Maturity Date, Issuing Lender agrees to issue such Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars for the account of Borrower, and as applicable, at the discretion of Issuing Lender, for the account of any Subsidiary, as Borrower may request by a Request for Letter of Credit; provided, however, that the form and substance of each Letter of Credit shall be subject to approval by Issuing Lender, in its sole discretion; and, provided further, that after giving effect to all such Letters of Credit, (i) the Revolving Facility Usage does not exceed the Borrowing Availability, (ii) the Letter of Credit Usage under all outstanding Letters of Credit does not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit, and (iii) as to each Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Facility Usage does not exceed such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment. Each Letter of Credit shall mature on or before the Letter of Credit Maturity Date and, unless the Issuing Lender and Requisite Lenders otherwise consent in a writing delivered to Administrative Agent, the term of any Letter of Credit shall not exceed one (1) year or extend beyond the Letter of Credit Maturity Date, provided that in the Issuing Lender’s and Requisite Lenders’ discretion, a Letter of Credit may mature after the Letter of Credit Maturity Date provided Borrower Cash Collateralizes such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.3.11. Each Letter of Credit shall be subject to the additional terms and conditions of Issuing Lender’s standard agreement for a Letter of Credit and related documents, if any, required by Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance thereof; provided, however, to the extent that the terms of such documents are inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. An Issuing Lender shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(a) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Applicable Law applicable to such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable on the Closing Date and that such Issuing Lender in good xxxxx xxxxx material to it;

(b) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally; or

(c) any Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless such Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to such Issuing Lender (in its sole discretion) with the Borrower or such Lender to eliminate such Issuing

Lender’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 11.5) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either such Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or such Letter of Credit and all other Letter of Credit Obligations as to which such Issuing Lender has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion.

An Issuing Lender shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such Issuing Lender would have no obligation at such time to issue the Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of the Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to the Letter of Credit.

2.3.2 Each Request for Letter of Credit shall be submitted to Issuing Lender, with a copy to Administrative Agent, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date upon which the related Letter of Credit is proposed to be issued. Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Issuing Lender whether such Request for Letter of Credit, and the issuance of a Letter of Credit pursuant thereto, conforms to the requirements of this Agreement. Upon issuance of a Letter of Credit, Issuing Lender shall promptly notify Administrative Agent, and Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders, of the amount and terms thereof.

2.3.3 Upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased a pro rata participation in such Letter of Credit from Issuing Lender in an amount equal to that Lender’s Pro Rata Share. Without limiting the scope and nature of each Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit, to the extent that Issuing Lender has not been reimbursed by Borrower for any payment required to be made by Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit, each Lender shall, pro rata according to its Pro Rata Share, reimburse Issuing Lender through Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for the amount of such payment. The obligation of each Lender to so reimburse Issuing Lender shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by the occurrence of an Event of Default or any other occurrence or event. Any such reimbursement shall not relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Borrower to reimburse Issuing Lender for the amount of any payment made by Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit together with interest as hereinafter provided.

2.3.4 Subject to Borrower’s right to finance such payment through a Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.3.5, Borrower agrees to pay to Issuing Lender through Administrative Agent an amount equal to any payment made by Issuing Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit within one (1) Business Day after demand made by Issuing Lender therefor, together with interest on such amount from the date of any payment made by Issuing Lender at the rate equal to the then Applicable L/C Rate for two (2) Business Days and thereafter, at the Default Rate. The principal amount of any such payment shall be used to reimburse Issuing Lender for the payment made by it under the Letter of Credit and, to the extent that the Lenders have not reimbursed Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.3.3, the interest amount of any such payment shall be for the account of Issuing Lender. Each Lender that has reimbursed Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.3.3 for its Pro Rata Share of any payment made by Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit shall thereupon acquire a pro rata participation, to the extent of such reimbursement, in the claim of Issuing Lender against Borrower for reimbursement of principal and interest under this Section 2.3.4 and shall share, in accordance with that pro rata participation, in any principal payment made by Borrower with respect

to such claim and in any interest payment made by Borrower (but only with respect to periods subsequent to the date such Lender reimbursed Issuing Lender) with respect to such claim. Upon receipt of any such reimbursement from Borrower, Issuing Lender shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of those Lenders that had reimbursed such Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.3.3 for their respective Pro Rata Shares of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit to which such reimbursement applies, the amount of such reimbursement.

2.3.5 Borrower may request that a Revolving Loan be made to provide funds for the payment required by Section 2.3.4; provided that, after giving effect to any such Loan, the Revolving Facility Usage does not exceed the Borrowing Availability at such time. The proceeds of such Revolving Loan shall be paid directly to Issuing Lender to reimburse it for the payment made by it under the Letter of Credit.

2.3.6 If Borrower fails to make the payment required by Section 2.3.4 within the time period therein set forth, in lieu of the reimbursement to Issuing Lender under Section 2.3.3, Issuing Lender may (but is not required to), without notice to or the consent of Borrower, instruct Administrative Agent to cause Revolving Loans to be made by the Lenders under the Revolving Commitment in an aggregate amount equal to the amount paid by Issuing Lender with respect to that Letter of Credit. The proceeds of such Loans shall be paid directly to Issuing Lender to reimburse it for the payment made by it under the Letter of Credit.

2.3.7 The issuance of any supplement, modification, amendment, renewal, or extension to or of any Letter of Credit shall be treated in all respects the same as the issuance of a new Letter of Credit.

2.3.8 Borrower’s obligation to reimburse Letter of Credit Obligations as provided in Section 2.3.4 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any Letter of Credit, or any term or provision herein or therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement in such draft or other document being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the respective Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

No Indemnified Person shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit by the respective Issuing Lender or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in translation or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the respective Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse

an Issuing Lender from liability to Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by Borrower to the extent permitted by Applicable Law) suffered by Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), an Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination, and that:

(1) Issuing Lender may replace a purportedly lost, stolen, or destroyed original Letter of Credit or missing amendment thereto with a replacement marked as such or waive a requirement for its presentation;

(2) Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit and without regard to any non-documentary condition in such Letter of Credit;

(3) Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and

(4) this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by Issuing Lender when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).

Without limiting the foregoing, no Indemnified Person shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of (i) any presentation that includes forged or fraudulent documents or that is otherwise affected by the fraudulent, bad faith, or illegal conduct of the beneficiary or other Person, (ii) Issuing Lender declining to take-up documents and make payment (A) against documents that are fraudulent, forged, or for other reasons by which that it is entitled not to honor or (B) following Borrower’s waiver of discrepancies with respect to such documents or request for honor of such documents or (iii) Issuing Lender retaining proceeds of a Letter of Credit based on an apparently applicable attachment order, blocking regulation, or third-party claim notified to such Issuing Lender.

2.3.9 The Issuing Lender when acting on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the Letter of Credit Documents associated therewith shall be entitled to the protection accorded to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13.5 (subject to the standards set forth therein), mutatis mutandis.

2.3.10 The Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as published in its most current version by the International Chamber of Commerce, and the International Standby Practices, as published by the Institute of International Bank Law and Practice, Inc., shall be deemed a part of this Section 2.3 and shall apply to all Letters of Credit issued hereunder that provides for such Letters of Credit to be governed thereby, to the extent not inconsistent with Applicable Law.

2.3.11 In addition to the requirement in Section 11.6 to Cash Collateralize Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure, if any Letters of Credit Obligations shall for any reason be outstanding at any time (a) that an Event of Default exists, (b) that Revolving Facility Usage exceeds the Maximum Amount, (c) after the termination of the Revolving Commitments, or (d) after the Letter of Credit Maturity Date, then Borrower shall, at Issuing Lender's or Administrative Agent's request, Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Usage amounts and pay to Issuing Lender the amount of all other Obligations owed in respect of the Letters of Credit. Borrower hereby grants to Security Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and the Lenders, a security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein and all proceeds of the foregoing. Cash Collateral shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Security Agent or shall be delivered and pledged to the Security Agent pursuant to documents reasonably acceptable to the Security Agent. If at any time either Agent determines that any funds held as Cash Collateral are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Security Agent or that the total amount of such funds is less than the Letter of Credit Usage of all outstanding Letters of Credit, Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by such Agent, pay to Security Agent, as additional funds to be deposited as Cash Collateral, an amount equal to the excess of (x) such Letter of Credit Usage over (y) the total amount of funds, if any, then held as Cash Collateral that such Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit for which funds are on deposit as Cash Collateral, such funds shall be applied, to the extent permitted under Applicable Laws, to reimburse Issuing Lender.

2.3.12 Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms hereof, the payment of interest thereon and the payment of fees and expenses due with respect thereto to the same extent as if it were the sole account party in respect of such Letter of Credit (Borrower hereby irrevocably waiving any defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of the obligations of such a Subsidiary that is an account party in respect of any such Letter of Credit). Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of Borrower, and that Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.

2.4 Payment of Interest; Interest Rate.

2.4.1 Loans. Interest on Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans shall be payable as follows:

(a) Base Rate Loans. Interest on each outstanding Base Rate Loan shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders, in arrears (i) on the first Business

Day of each month, (ii) on the Maturity Date, and (iii) if any interest accrues or remains payable after the Maturity Date or during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon demand by Administrative Agent. Interest shall accrue and be payable on each Base Rate Loan at a per annum interest rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Base Rate Margin (“Applicable Base Rate”). The “Base Rate” shall be equal to the highest of (i) the rate of interest most recently announced by Administrative Agent as to its U.S. dollar “Reference Rate,” (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus one-half of one percent (0.50%) or (iii) one month LIBOR plus one percent (1.00%); provided that, if the Base Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed zero for purposes of this Agreement.

(b) LIBOR Loans. Interest on each outstanding LIBOR Loan shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, in arrears (i) on the last day of the applicable LIBOR Loan Period in the case of any LIBOR Loan with a LIBOR Loan Period of one, two or three months, (ii) on the 90th day and the last day of the applicable LIBOR Loan Period in the case of any LIBOR Loan with a LIBOR Loan Period greater than three months, (iii) on the Maturity Date, and (iv) if any interest accrues or remains payable after the Maturity Date or during the continuance of an Event of Default, upon demand by Administrative Agent. Interest shall accrue and be payable on each LIBOR Loan at a per annum interest rate equal to the LIBOR Basis applicable to such LIBOR Loan plus the Applicable LIBOR Margin (“Applicable LIBOR Rate”).

(c) Applicable Margins and Fees. The Applicable Base Rate Margin, the Applicable LIBOR Margin, the Applicable L/C Rate, and the Applicable Unused Line Fee Percentage shall be determined based on the Leverage Ratio as reported in the most recent Compliance Certificate (delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8) by reference to Table 1 below:



Table 1
Level	Leverage Ratio	Applicable Base Rate Margin	Applicable LIBOR Margin / Applicable LC Rate	Applicable Unused Line Fee Percentage
I	≥ 3.25	1.50%	2.50%	0.500%
II	< 3.25	1.125%	2.125%	0.375%
III	< 2.25	0.75%	1.75%	0.250%
IV	< 1.50	0.375%	1.375%	0.250%

2.4.2 Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, interest on all outstanding Obligations under the Loan Documents shall, upon the election of Administrative Agent (acting at the direction of the Requisite Lenders), confirmed by written notice from Administrative Agent to Borrower, accrue and be payable at the Default Rate. Interest accruing at the Default Rate shall be payable to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, on demand and in any event on the Maturity Date. Administrative Agent shall not be required to (1) accelerate the maturity of the Loans or (2) exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents, in order to charge the Default Rate. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default specified in Sections 9.1.5, 9.1.6, or 9.1.7, the interest rate

shall be increased automatically to the Default Rate without the necessity of any action by Administrative Agent.

2.4.3 Replacement Rate of Interest. If at any time (i) Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) or the Requisite Lenders notify Administrative Agent (with a copy to Borrower) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR (including, without limitation, because LIBOR is not available or published on a current basis) and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) the supervisor for the administrator of LIBOR or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, or (iii) any applicable interest rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in the United States syndicated loan market in the applicable currency, then Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest (the “Replacement Rate”) to LIBOR that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other conforming changes to this Agreement as may be applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12.16, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date notice of the Replacement Rate is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from Lenders comprising Requisite Lenders stating that such Requisite Lenders do not accept such amendment. Until the Replacement Rate is determined in accordance with this Section 2.4.3 (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.4.3, only to the extent LIBOR for the applicable interest period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), (x) in connection with any request for a LIBOR Loan, such Loan shall be made as a Base Rate Loan, and (y) each LIBOR Loan shall, unless then repaid in full, convert to a Base Rate Loan on the next Payment Date for such LIBOR Loan. Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of Replacement Rate shall provide that in no event shall such Replacement Rate be less than zero for the purposes of this Agreement. To the extent the Replacement Rate is approved by Administrative Agent in connection with this clause, the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice; provided that, in each case, to the extent such market practice is not administratively feasible for Administrative Agent, the Replacement Rate shall be applied as otherwise reasonably determined by Administrative Agent (it being understood that any such modification by Administrative Agent shall not require the consent of, or consultation with, any of the Lenders).

2.5 Maximum Rate of Interest. In no event shall the aggregate of all interest on the Obligations charged or collected pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or pursuant to the Notes exceed the highest rate permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. In the event that such a court determines that a Lender has charged or received interest under this Agreement or the Notes in excess of the highest applicable rate, the rate in effect under this Agreement and the Notes shall automatically be reduced to the maximum rate permitted by Applicable Law and Lender shall promptly apply such excess to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations under the Loan Documents, or if the principal balance of

the Obligations owing have been paid in full, Lender shall promptly apply such excess to reduce any other Obligations, and if all Obligations have been paid in full, then Lender shall refund to Borrower any interest received by Lender in excess of the maximum lawful rate; provided that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the highest applicable rate, Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the highest applicable rate, until such time as the total interest received by Lender from the making of Loans hereunder is equal to the total interest that Lender would have received had the interest rate payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this Section 2.5) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement. It is the intent of this Agreement that Borrower not pay or contract to pay, and that Lender not receive or contract to receive, directly or indirectly, interest in excess of that which may be paid by Borrower under Applicable Law.

2.6 Fees.

2.6.1 Unused Line Fee. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent the Unused Line Fee for the ratable benefit of Lenders commencing as of the Closing Date, payable quarterly in arrears, commencing on the first Business Day of the Fiscal Quarter beginning July 1, 2019 and ending on the Maturity Date. The Unused Line Fee shall be, for each day after the Closing Date through the Maturity Date, an amount equal to (a) the difference between (1) the Maximum Amount, and (2) the Revolving Facility Usage, multiplied by (b) the Applicable Unused Line Fee Percentage, the product of which is then divided by (c) 360.

2.6.2 Letter of Credit Fees.

(a) Letter of Credit Fee. Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share a Letter of Credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable L/C Rate times the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.7. Letter of Credit Fees shall be (i) computed on a quarterly basis in arrears and (ii) due and payable on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Maturity Date and thereafter on demand. If there is any change in the Applicable L/C Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable L/C Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable L/C Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the request of the Requisite Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.

(b) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to Issuing Lender. Borrower shall pay directly to each Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender in an amount equal to 12.5 basis points (0.125%) per annum on the amount available under such Letter of Credit. Such fronting fee shall be due and payable in full by Borrower to the applicable Issuing Lender, with respect to each Letter of Credit, quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day after the end of each March, June, September and December commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of

such Letter of Credit, on the Letter of Credit Maturity Date and thereafter on demand. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.7. In addition, unless otherwise agreed with the applicable Issuing Lender, Borrower shall pay directly to each Issuing Lender for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such Issuing Lender relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable on demand and are non-refundable.

2.6.3 Fees to Administrative Agent. On the Closing Date and on each other date upon which a fee is payable, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent such fees as heretofore agreed upon by letter agreement dated as of March 19, 2019, between Borrower and MUFG Bank, Ltd., as Administrative Agent (“Administrative Agency Fee Letter”), which fees shall be solely for its own account and are nonrefundable.

2.7 Late Payments. If any installment of principal or interest or any fee or cost or other amount payable under any Loan Document to any Credit Facility Lender is not paid when due, it shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Laws.

2.8 Repayment and Prepayment.

2.8.1 Repayment and Voluntary Prepayment. Borrower shall pay in full the principal balance of the Loans and all other Obligations under the Loan Documents on the Maturity Date. The principal amount of any Base Rate Loan may be prepaid prior to the Maturity Date at any time; provided that any such prepayments shall be in minimum amounts to be agreed upon by Administrative Agent and Borrower. The principal amount of any LIBOR Loan together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon may be prepaid prior to the applicable Payment Date, together with any breakage fees as set forth in Section 2.8.5, upon three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to Lender. Each notice of prepayment shall be irrevocable.

2.8.2 Overadvances. Borrower shall immediately repay to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, any Overadvance. Overadvances constitute Obligations that are evidenced by the Notes, secured by the Collateral, and entitled to all of the benefits of the Loan Documents.

2.8.3 Mandatory Prepayment.

(a) Within three (3) Business Days of receiving written notice from Administrative Agent of the occurrence of any Borrowing Base Deficiency or Appraisal Deficiency, Borrower shall repay all or such portion of the Loans in an amount equal to such deficiency (or, with respect to Letter of Credit Obligations, Cash Collateralize such Obligations), together with any breakage fees as set forth in Section 2.8.5; provided that with respect to an Appraisal Deficiency which is the result of a new or updated Appraisal, the foregoing cure period shall be extended to be ninety (90) days.

(b) In addition, within thirty (30) days of the consummation of any sale by Borrower of any of its Stock in any Special Purpose Financing Vehicle to a Person that is not an Affiliate of Borrower, Borrower shall apply the Net Cash Proceeds of any such sale to the Loans pro rata, together with any breakage fees as set forth in Section 2.8.5.

2.8.4 Mandatory Repayment. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Revolving Commitment shall be terminated, and all outstanding Obligations under the Loan Documents shall be repaid in full, together with any breakage fees as set forth in Section 2.8.5; for the avoidance of doubt a Permitted Change in Control shall not constitute a Change in Control.

2.8.5 Breakage Fees. Upon payment or prepayment of any LIBOR Loan (other than as the result of a conversion required under Section 15.1.3) on a day other than the last day in the applicable LIBOR Loan Period (whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise), or upon the failure of Borrower (for a reason other than the breach by a Lender of its obligation to make a LIBOR Loan pursuant to this Agreement) to borrow on the date or in the amount specified for a LIBOR Loan in any Borrowing Notice, Borrower shall pay to Lender within five (5) Business Days after demand a prepayment fee or failure to borrow fee, as the case may be (determined based on 100% of the LIBOR Loan actually funded in the London Eurodollar Market (the “Designated Eurodollar Market”)) equal to the sum of:

(a) $250; plus

(b) the amount, if any, by which (i) the additional interest would have accrued on the amount prepaid or not borrowed at the LIBOR Basis exceeds (ii) the interest Lenders could recover by placing such amount on deposit in the Designated Eurodollar Market for a period beginning on the date of the prepayment or failure to borrow and ending on the last day of the applicable LIBOR Loan Period (or, if no deposit rate quotation is available for such period, for the most comparable period for which a deposit rate quotation may be obtained); plus

(c) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Lenders directly attributable to such payment, prepayment or failure to borrow.

Each Lender making a claim under this Section shall submit to the Borrower an itemized and substantiated statement setting forth such Lender’s accounting of the amount of any prepayment fee payable under this Section, which calculation shall, absent manifest error, be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower, unless Borrower, within thirty (30) days after the date any such accounting is rendered, provides such Lender with written notice of any objection which Borrower may have to such accounting.

2.9 Term. The Credit Facilities shall be in effect until the Maturity Date. The Credit Facilities and all other Obligations related thereto under the Loan Documents shall be automatically due and payable in full on the Maturity Date, unless earlier due and payable or terminated as provided in this Agreement.

2.10 Early Termination. The Credit Facilities may be terminated, in whole or in increments of $10,000,000.00, by Borrower prior to the Maturity Date upon five (5) Business Days’ prior

written notice to Administrative Agent; provided that at such time Borrower shall (a) prepay all amounts outstanding under the Credit Facilities which exceed the reduced Revolving Commitment amount elected by Borrower, (b) cause the outstanding Letters of Credit to be canceled and returned to Lenders or Cash Collateralize such Letters of Credit if such outstanding Letters of Credit would cause the amounts outstanding under the Credit Facilities to exceed the reduced Revolving Commitment amount elected by Borrower, (c) pay all accrued interest thereon and fees and charges incurred in connection therewith, and (d) reimburse Lenders for those costs and expenses incurred by Lenders in connection with such prepayment and termination, as set forth in Section 2.8.5.

2.11 Note and Accounting. Administrative Agent shall provide a quarterly accounting to Borrower of the Loans and other transactions under this Agreement, including Administrative Agent’s calculation of principal and interest. Each and every such accounting shall, absent manifest error, be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower, unless Borrower, within thirty (30) days after the date any such accounting is rendered, provides Administrative Agent with written notice of any objection which Borrower may have to any item in such accounting, describing the basis for such objection with specificity. In that event, only those items expressly objected to in such notice shall be deemed to be disputed by Borrower, and in the event the parties cannot resolve their dispute, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Sections 12.14 and 12.15 of this Agreement.

2.12 Manner of Payment.

2.12.1 When Payments Due.

(a) Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, each payment (including any prepayment) by Borrower on account of the principal of or interest on the Loans and any other amount owed to Lenders on account of the Obligations shall be made not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified for payment under this Agreement to Administrative Agent in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds. Any payment received by Administrative Agent on a day that is not a Business Day or after 2:00 p.m. on a Business Day, shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. The amount of all payments received by Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender shall be promptly distributed by Administrative Agent to the applicable Non-Defaulting Lender in like funds as received. The amount of all payments received by the Administrative Agent for the account of any Defaulting Lender shall be treated as provided in Section 11. All payments shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America.

(b) If any payment on any Obligation is specified to be made upon a day that is not a Business Day, it shall (subject to the provisions of the LIBOR Loan Period which may require payment by one (1) earlier Business Day) be deemed to be specified to be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing interest and fees, if any, in connection with such payment.

2.12.2 No Deductions. Subject to Section 2.12.1 above, Borrower shall pay principal, interest, fees, and all other amounts due on the Obligations under the Loan Documents without set-off or counterclaim or any deduction whatsoever.

2.13 Application of Payments. Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments received at any time by any Credit Facility Lender from or on behalf of Borrower and specifically waives any provisions of the law of the State of New York or any other Applicable Law giving Borrower the right to designate application of payments. All amounts received by Administrative Agent for application to the Obligations shall be applied by Administrative Agent in the following order of priority: (i) to the payment of any fees then due and payable, (ii) to the payments of all other amounts not otherwise referred to in these clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 2.13 then due and payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (including any costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent as a result of a Default or an Event of Default), (iii) to the payment of interest then due and payable on the Loans, and (iv) to the payment of principal then due and payable on the Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the occurrence of an Event of Default or following any exercise of remedies provided hereunder, any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, subject to the provisions of Section 2.3.11 and Section 11, be applied by Administrative Agent in the following order (on a pro rata basis within each level of priority):

(a) first, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees and disbursements and other charges of counsel payable under Sections 12.2, 13.6, 14.7 and 15) payable to Administrative Agent and Security Agent in their capacity as such;

(b) second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit Fees) payable to the Credit Facility Lenders (including fees and disbursements and other charges of counsel payable under Sections 12.2) arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (b) payable to them;

(c) third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit Fees and interest on the Loans and unreimbursed Letter of Credit Obligations, ratably among the Credit Facility Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (c) payable to them;

(d) fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, ratably among the Credit Facility Lenders;

(e) fifth, to the Security Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, to Cash Collateralize that portion of the Letter of Credit Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender to the extent not otherwise Cash Collateralized by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3.11;

(f) sixth, to the payment in full of all other Obligations (for clarity, including the Secured Hedging Obligations), in each case ratably among Administrative Agent, Security Agent and the Credit Facility Lenders (and the Swap Lenders on account of the Secured Hedging Obligations) based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations owing to them in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and payable; and

(g) finally, the balance, if any, after all Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to Borrower or as otherwise required by Applicable Law.

If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired (without any pending drawings), such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Secured Hedging Obligations will be excluded from the application described above if Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as Administrative Agent may reasonably request, from the applicable Swap Lender. Each Swap Lender that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence will, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article 13 for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto. In connection with any such distribution of payments and collections, Administrative Agent will be entitled to assume no amounts are due to any Swap Lender unless such Swap Lender has notified Administrative Agent in writing of the amount of any such liability owed to it prior to such distribution.

2.14 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans shall be used by Borrower for general corporate purposes, including financing aircraft engines owned and held for lease and the purchase of Parts.

2.15 All Obligations to Constitute One Obligation. All Obligations related to the Credit Facilities constitute one general obligation of Borrower and shall be secured by Security Agent’s Liens upon all of the Collateral, and by all other Liens previously, now or at any time in the future granted by Borrower to Security Agent, Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender to the extent provided in the Collateral Documents and permitted by this Agreement.

2.16 Authorization to Make Loans. Administrative Agent and each Credit Facility Lender (each, an “Authorized Party”) are authorized to make the Loans, including the issuance of Letters of Credit, based on telephonic or other oral or written instructions received from any Person that an Authorized Party believes in good faith to be an authorized representative of Borrower, or at the discretion of such Authorized Party, if such Loans are necessary to satisfy any of the Obligations. Borrower consents to the recordation of any telephonic or other communications between an Authorized Party and Borrower for the purpose of maintaining such party’s business records of such transactions.

2.17 [Reserved].

2.18 Administrative Agent’s Right to Assume Funds Available for Revolving Loans. Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender no later than 10:00 a.m. on the Business Day of the proposed funding by Administrative Agent of any Revolving Loan that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of the total amount of such Revolving Loan, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent on the date of the Revolving Loan and Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower a

corresponding amount. If Administrative Agent has made funds available to Borrower based on such assumption and such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by such Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent promptly shall notify Borrower and Borrower shall either (i) pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent or (ii) arrange for another Lender or Lenders to assume the Defaulting Lender’s commitment to pay such corresponding amount and such assuming Lender(s) shall pay the corresponding amount to Administrative Agent (upon which payment the Defaulting Lender’s and any such assuming Lender’s Pro Rata Share shall be adjusted accordingly). Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover from such Defaulting Lender interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by Administrative Agent to Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the daily Federal Funds Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its share of the Revolving Commitment or to prejudice any rights which Administrative Agent or Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

2.19 Optional Increase to the Revolving Commitment.

2.19.1 Provided that no Default or Event of Default then exists (and subject to Section 2.19.9), Borrower may elect, from time to time, on or after the Closing Date, in writing, that the then effective Revolving Commitment be increased up to an aggregate amount which is not in excess of One Billion Three Hundred Million and 00/100 Dollars ($1,300,000,000.00). Any request under this Section 2.19 shall, not less than thirty (30) days prior to the proposed increase (which shall be a Business Day), be submitted by Borrower through Administrative Agent to the Lenders and/or, subject to the approval of Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), any prospective lender who would meet the criteria of an Eligible Assignee (a “New Lender”), which request shall specify the proposed effective date and amount of such increase, and be accompanied by a certificate signed by an Authorized Signatory, stating that no Default or Event of Default exists as of the date of the request or will result from the requested increase. Any such request shall be approved by Administrative Agent if Borrower provides the foregoing items, Administrative Agent receives sufficient commitments from the Lenders and/or New Lender(s) pursuant to Sections 2.19.2 through 2.19.4 to fund the requested increase and, with respect to any New Lender, Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender shall have provided their approvals in accordance with the preceding sentence.

2.19.2 Borrower shall be solely responsible for requesting a commitment from each Lender and New Lender (if any) to assume a portion of the proposed increase to the Revolving Commitment, and Borrower shall copy Administrative Agent on all such requests. Each Lender and New Lender (if any) may approve or reject such request in its sole and absolute discretion, and any Lender or New Lender (if any) who fails to send an affirmative written response to Borrower, with a copy to Administrative Agent, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such request, shall be deemed to have rejected Borrower’s request.

2.19.3 In responding to a request under this Section, each Lender and New Lender (if any) which is willing to assume a portion of the proposed increase to the Revolving Commitment shall specify the amount of the proposed increase that it is willing to assume. Each consenting Lender shall be entitled to participate ratably (based on its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment before such increase) in any resulting increase in the Revolving Commitment, subject to the right of Administrative Agent to adjust allocations of the increased Revolving Commitment so as to result in the amounts of the Pro Rata Shares of the Lenders being in integral multiples of $100,000.00.

2.19.4 If the Revolving Commitment is increased in accordance with this Section 2.19, Administrative Agent shall determine, in consultation with Borrower, the final allocation of the increase in the Revolving Commitment.

2.19.5 After completion of the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall give written notification to the Lenders and any New Lenders of the increase to the Revolving Commitment which shall thereupon become effective, and in connection with such notification Administrative Agent will distribute to the Borrower and the Lenders a revised Schedule A reflecting the then applicable Pro Rata Shares of the Lenders.

2.19.6 Each New Lender shall become an additional party hereto as a Lender concurrently with the effectiveness of the proposed increase in the Revolving Commitment upon its execution of an instrument of joinder to this Agreement, which is in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and which, in any event, contains the representations, warranties, indemnities and other protections afforded to Administrative Agent and the other Lenders which would be granted or made by an Eligible Assignee by means of the execution of a Commitment Assignment and Acceptance. Only Lenders who agree to increase their Revolving Commitment and New Lenders shall be entitled to receive fees in connection with such increase to the Revolving Commitment.

2.19.7 Subject to the foregoing, any increase to the Revolving Commitment requested under this Section shall be effective upon the date agreed to by Administrative Agent and Borrower and shall be in the principal amount equal to (i) the amount which consenting Lenders are willing to assume as increases to their respective Revolving Commitment plus (ii) the amount assumed by New Lenders. Only the consent of such consenting Lenders and New Lenders shall be required for an increase in the Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.19. Upon the effectiveness of any such increase, each Revolving Loan outstanding shall be refinanced with new Loans reflecting the adjusted Pro Rata Share of each Lender in the Revolving Commitment if there is any change thereto and Borrower shall:

(a) issue a replacement Revolving Note to each affected Lender and a new Revolving Note to each New Lender, and the Pro Rata Share of each Lender will be adjusted to give effect to the increase in the Revolving Commitment;

(b) execute and deliver to Administrative Agent such amendments to the Loan Documents as Administrative Agent may reasonably request relating to such increase to, among other things, assure the continued priority and perfection the Lien granted by Borrower to

Security Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, upon all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in the Collateral; and

(c) pay to the existing Lenders any breakage costs as set forth in Section 2.8.5, which are payable in connection with the refinancing of any LIBOR Loans.

2.19.8 Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any increase in the Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall not increase the Swing Line Sublimit or the Letter of Credit Sublimit unless consented to in writing by Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender, respectively.

2.19.9 To the extent any Collateral consist of a Specified Real Property and a Security Election with respect to such Specified Real Property has been made, the increase in the Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section is subject to flood insurance due diligence and flood insurance compliance reasonably satisfactory to all the Lenders.

2.20 Withholding of Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.20) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by Borrower. Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

(c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.20, Borrower shall deliver to Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

(d) Indemnification by Borrower. Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not

such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Credit Facility Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Credit Facility Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Credit Facility Lender shall severally indemnify Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Credit Facility Lender (but only to the extent that Borrower has not already indemnified Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Credit Facility Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 2.20 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Credit Facility Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Credit Facility Lender by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Credit Facility Lender hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Credit Facility Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by Administrative Agent to the Credit Facility Lender from any other source against any amount due to Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Status of Credit Facility Lenders.

(1) Any Credit Facility Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Credit Facility Lender, if reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as will enable Borrower or Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Credit Facility Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.20(f)(2)(A), Section 2.20(f)(2)(B) and Section 2.20(f)(2)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Credit Facility Lender's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Credit Facility Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Credit Facility Lender.

(2) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(A) any Credit Facility Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Credit Facility Lender becomes a Credit Facility Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent), an executed copy of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Credit Facility Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) any Foreign Lender shall comply with Section 12.17.

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

(D) if a payment made to a Credit Facility Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Credit Facility Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Credit Facility Lender shall deliver to Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Credit Facility Lender has complied with such Credit Facility Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Credit Facility Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it

shall update such form or certification or promptly notify Borrower and Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.20 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.20 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) Survival; Defined Terms. Each party's obligations under this Section 2.20 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Credit Facility Lender, the termination of the Revolving Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. For purposes of this Section 2.20, the term “Applicable Law” includes FATCA.

3. SECURITY

In addition, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent may (upon prior written approval of Requisite Lenders), without notice, take any one or more of the following actions: (i) declare all or any portion of the Obligations under the Loan Documents to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon such Obligations shall become and be due and payable, (ii) require Borrower Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Obligations as provided in Section 2.3.11; or (iii) exercise any rights and remedies provided to Agents under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the UCC; provided, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Sections 9.1.5, 9.1.6 or 9.1.7, the Obligations under the Loan Documents shall become immediately due and payable (and any obligation of Lenders to make further Loans (including issuance of any Letter of Credit), if not previously terminated, shall immediately be terminated) and the obligation of Borrower to Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Obligations as provided in clause (ii) above shall automatically become effective, in each case without declaration, notice or demand by Agent.

10. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS

Subject to the limitations on assignment and the grants of participations set forth in Section 12.8, each Loan Document shall be binding on and shall inure to the benefit of Borrower, Credit Facility Lenders, Security Agent and their respective successors and assigns, except as otherwise provided herein or therein. Borrower shall not assign, transfer, hypothecate or otherwise convey its rights, benefits, obligations or duties under any Loan Document without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders, and any such purported assignment, transfer, hypothecation or other conveyance by Borrower without the prior express written consent of all Lenders shall be void. The terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of Borrower and Lenders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and there shall be no third party beneficiaries of any of the terms and provisions of any of the Loan Documents.

11. DEFAULTING LENDERS

11.1 Obligation Not Affected. The obligation of any Lender to make any Loan hereunder shall not be affected by the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan under this Agreement, and no Lender shall have any liability to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, Agents, any other Lender, or any other Person for another Lender’s failure to make any Loan hereunder.

11.2 Waivers and Amendments. 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 the definition of Requisite Lenders and Section 12.16.

11.3 Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 9 or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.9 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Lender or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by Administrative Agent or requested by Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender, to Cash Collateralize such Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure or pay down the Swing Line Loan(s) in an amount equal to Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 11.6 below; fourth, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of 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 Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize Issuing Lenders’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 11.6 below; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, Issuing Lenders or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, Issuing Lenders or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting

103

Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by 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 in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Line Loan are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share without giving effect to Section 11.5 below. 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 11.3 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

11.4 Certain Fees.

(a) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Line Fee for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(b) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive the Letter of Credit Fees described in Section 2.6.2 for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral in accordance with Section 11.6 below.

(c) With respect to Unused Line Fee or Letter of Credit Fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above, Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations or Swing Line Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.5 below, (y) pay to each Issuing Lender and to Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Lender’s or Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

11.5 Reallocation of Participations. If any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, then, for so long as such Lender remains a Defaulting Lender, any Fronting Exposure shall be reallocated by Administrative Agent at the request of the Swing Line Lender and/or Issuing Lender among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Share, but only to the extent such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Facility Usage of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment and only so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date of such reallocation. Subject to

104

Section 12.19, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

11.6 Cash Collateral; Repayment of Swing Line Loan(s). If the reallocation described in Section 11.5 above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall, within one (1) Business Day following the written request of Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender or Issuing Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), (x) Cash Collateralize Issuing Lender's Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.3.11 and (y) pay down the Swing Line Loan(s) in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender.

12. MISCELLANEOUS

12.1 Complete Agreement; Modification of Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the complete agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, supersede all prior agreements, commitments, understandings or inducements (oral or written, expressed or implied), and may not be modified, altered or amended except by a written agreement signed by Administrative Agent, Security Agent, Credit Facility Lenders, Borrower and each other Person executing this Agreement or any other Loan Document, as applicable, and in accordance with Section 12.16 hereof.

12.2 Reimbursement and Expenses. Borrower will promptly pay:

105

action or proceeding (including any case under the Bankruptcy Code or similar laws), which, in each case, shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for Agents;

12.2.4 all Charges levied on, or assessed, placed or made against any Collateral, the Notes or the other Loan Documents or the Obligations under the Loan Documents.

12.3 Indemnity.

12.3.1 Borrower shall indemnify and hold each Indemnified Person harmless from and against any Claim which may be instituted or asserted against or incurred by any such Indemnified Person as the result of credit having been extended or not extended under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or otherwise in connection with or arising out of the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder, including any Claim for Environmental Liabilities and Costs and legal costs and expenses of disputes between the parties to this Agreement; provided that Borrower shall not be liable for indemnification of an Indemnified Person to the extent that (a) such Claim is brought by any Indemnified Person against Borrower and Borrower is the prevailing party thereunder or (b) any such Claim is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. NO INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN EXTENDED OR NOT EXTENDED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR AS A RESULT OF ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER OR THEREUNDER.

12.3.2 In any suit, proceeding or action brought by Agent or any Credit Facility Lender relating to any item of Collateral or any amount owing hereunder, or to enforce any provision of any item of Collateral, Borrower shall save, indemnify and keep Agent and each Credit Facility Lender harmless from and against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of such action or any defense, setoff, or counterclaim asserted for any reason by the other party or parties to such litigation and however arising unless (a) such suit, proceeding or action is brought by Agent or any Credit Facility Lender against Borrower and Borrower is the prevailing party thereunder, or (b) any such suit, proceeding or action is finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from Agent’s or any Credit Facility Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. All obligations of Borrower with respect to any item of Collateral shall be and remain enforceable against, and only against, Borrower and shall not be enforceable against Agent or any Credit Facility Lender. This Section 12.3.2 shall survive the Termination Date.

12.4 No Waiver. Neither Agent’s nor any Credit Facility Lender’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of any Loan Document, nor Agent’s or any Credit Facility Lender’s failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement, (a) shall waive, affect or diminish any right of such Agent or any Credit Facility Lender thereafter to demand strict compliance and performance therewith, or (b) shall operate as a waiver thereof. Subject to Section 12.16, any suspension or waiver of a

106

Default, Event of Default, or other provision under the Loan Documents must be in writing signed by an authorized employee of Administrative Agent and each applicable Credit Facility Lender to be effective and shall not suspend, waive or affect any other Default or Event of Default, whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether of the same or of a different type, and shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Agent and each applicable Credit Facility Lender would otherwise have had on any future occasion.

12.5 Severability; Drafting. Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Applicable Law, but if any provision of any Loan Document shall be prohibited by or invalid under Applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of such Loan Document. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Loan Document, all undertakings, agreements, covenants, warranties and representations of or binding upon Borrower and all rights of Agents and Credit Facility Lender, all as contained in the Loan Documents, shall not terminate or expire, but rather shall survive such termination or cancellation and shall continue in full force and effect until the Termination Date; provided that the reimbursement and expense provisions of Section 12.2, the indemnity provisions of Section 12.3, and the governing law and venue provisions of Section 12.14 shall all survive the Termination Date. In the event of a dispute between any of the parties hereto over the meaning of this Agreement, all parties shall be deemed to have been the drafter hereof, and any Applicable Law that states that contracts are construed against the drafter shall not apply.

12.6 Conflict of Terms. Except as otherwise provided in any Loan Document by specific reference to the applicable provisions of this Agreement, if any provision contained in this Agreement is in conflict with, or inconsistent with, any provision in any other Loan Document, the provision contained in this Agreement shall govern and control.

12.8 Binding Effect; Assignment.

12.8.1 This Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower, Agents, each of Credit Facility Lenders, and their respective permitted successors and assigns, except that Borrower may not assign its rights hereunder or thereunder or any interest herein or therein without the prior written consent of all

108

Lenders. Each Credit Facility Lender represents that it is not acquiring its Note with a view to the distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (subject to any requirement that disposition of such Note must be within the control of such Lender). Any Credit Facility Lender may at any time pledge its Note or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a lender under this Agreement to a Federal Reserve Bank, but no such pledge shall release that lender from its obligations hereunder or grant to such Federal Reserve Bank the rights of a Credit Facility Lender hereunder absent foreclosure of such pledge.

12.8.2 From time to time following the Closing Date, each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or any portion of its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment; provided that (i) such Eligible Assignee, if not then a Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of the assigning Lender, shall be approved by Administrative Agent and, provided no Default or Event of Default then exists, Borrower, which approval(s) shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; (ii) such assignment shall be evidenced by a Commitment Assignment and Acceptance, a copy of which shall be furnished to Administrative Agent as hereinbelow provided; (iii) except in the case of an assignment (a) to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender or to another Lender or (b) of the entire remaining Commitment of the assigning Lender, the assignment shall not assign a Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment that is equivalent to less than $5,000,000.00; (iv) the effective date of any such assignment shall be as specified in the Commitment Assignment and Acceptance, but not earlier than the date which is five (5) Business Days after the date Administrative Agent has received the Commitment Assignment and Acceptance; and (v) the consent of Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender. Upon the effective date of such Commitment Assignment and Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee named therein shall be a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement, with the Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment therein set forth and, to the extent of such Pro Rata Share, the assigning Lender shall be released from its further obligations under this Agreement. Borrower agrees that it shall execute and deliver (against delivery by the assigning Lender to Borrower of its Note(s)) to such assignee Lender, Note(s) evidencing that assignee Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment, and to the assigning Lender, Note(s) evidencing the Pro Rata Share retained by the assigning Lender.

12.8.3 By executing and delivering a Commitment Assignment and Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee thereunder acknowledges and agrees that: (i) other than the representation and warranty that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim, the assigning Lender has made no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (ii) the assigning Lender has made no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of Borrower or the performance by Borrower of the Obligations; (iii) it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 8 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Commitment Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any

109

Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) it appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to Administrative Agent by this Agreement; and (vi) it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

12.8.4 Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Commitment Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register (the “Register”) of the names and address of each of the Lenders, and the Pro Rata Share of the Commitments held by, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Credit Facility Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Borrower, the Agents and the Credit Facility Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Credit Facility Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available during normal business hours for inspection by Borrower or any Lender upon reasonable prior notice to Administrative Agent. After receipt of a completed Commitment Assignment and Acceptance executed by any Lender and an Eligible Assignee, and receipt of a non-refundable assignment fee of Three Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($3,500.00) from such Lender or Eligible Assignee, Administrative Agent shall, promptly following the effective date thereof, provide to Borrower and the Lenders a revised Schedule A giving effect thereto. Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall deem and treat the Persons listed as Lenders in the Register as the holders and owners of the Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment listed therein for all purposes hereof, and no assignment or transfer of any such Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment shall be effective, in each case unless and until a Commitment Assignment and Acceptance effecting the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been accepted by Administrative Agent and recorded in the Register as provided above. Prior to such recordation, all amounts owed with respect to the applicable Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment shall be owed to the Lender listed in the Register as the owner thereof, and any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is listed in the Register as a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, assignee or transferee of the corresponding Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment.

12.8.5 Each Lender may from time to time grant participations to one or more banks or other financial institutions (a “Participant”) in a portion of its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment; 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; (iii) the participating banks or other financial institutions shall not be a Lender hereunder for any purpose except, if the participation agreement so provides, (A) for the purposes of Section 12.3 but only to the extent that the cost of such benefits to Borrower does not exceed the cost which Borrower would have incurred in respect of such Lender absent the participation, and (B) for the purposes of Sections 2.20, 15.1, and 15.2 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.20(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.20(f) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the

110

participation)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.8.2; provided that such participating bank (1) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 12.10 as if it were an assignee under Section 12.8.2, and (2) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.20, 15.1, and 15.2, with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive (iv) Borrower, Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; (v) the participation interest shall be expressed as a percentage of the granting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment as it then exists and shall not restrict an increase in the Revolving Commitment, or in the granting Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment, so long as the amount of the participation interest is not affected thereby; and (vi) the consent of the holder of such participation interest shall not be required for amendments or waivers of provisions of the Loan Documents and the Lender granting such participation shall be empowered to bind such participant for the purpose of all consents, waiver and amendments other than those which (a) extend the Maturity Date or any other date upon which any payment of money is due to the Lenders, (b) reduce the rate of interest on the Notes, any fee or any other monetary amount payable to the Lenders, (c) reduce the amount of any installment of principal due under the Notes, or (d) release all or a substantial portion of the Collateral from the Lien of the Collateral Documents if the effect thereof is to cause the outstanding principal amount of the Loans to exceed the amount of the Borrowing Base, except if such release of Collateral occurs in connection with a disposition permitted under this Agreement in which case such release shall not require the consent of any of the Lenders or of any holder of a participation interest in the Revolving Commitment. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant's interest in the Loans or other obligations under any Loan Document (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any Revolving Commitments, Loans, or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Revolving Commitment, Loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

12.9 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Agent or any Lender (but in each case only with the consent of the Requisite Lenders) may exercise its rights under Article 9 of the UCC and other Applicable Laws and, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, apply any funds in any deposit account maintained with it by Borrower and/or any Property of Borrower in its possession against the Obligations; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 11 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held for the benefit of Administrative Agent, Issuing Lender and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Indebtedness owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

111

12.10 Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender severally agrees that if it, through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim against Borrower, or otherwise, receives payment of the Obligations held by it that is ratably more than any other Lender, through any means, receives in payment of the Obligations held by that Lender, then, subject to Applicable Laws: (a) the Lender exercising the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or otherwise receiving such payment shall purchase, and shall be deemed to have simultaneously purchased, from each of the other Lenders a participation in the Obligations held by the other Lenders and shall pay to the other Lenders a purchase price in an amount so that the share of the Obligations held by each Lender after the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment shall be in the same proportion that existed prior to the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or receipt of payment; and (b) such other adjustments and purchases of participations shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that all of the Lenders share any payment obtained in respect of the Obligations ratably in accordance with each Lender’s share of the Obligations immediately prior to, and without taking into account, the payment; provided that if all or any portion of a disproportionate payment obtained as a result of the exercise of the right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or otherwise is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender by Borrower or any Person claiming through or succeeding to the rights of Borrower, the purchase of a participation shall be rescinded and the purchase price thereof shall be restored to the extent of the recovery, but without interest. Each Lender that purchases a participation in the Obligations pursuant to this Section 12.10 shall from and after the purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased. Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees that any Lender holding a participation in an Obligation so purchased pursuant to this Section 12.10 may exercise any and all rights of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim with respect to the participation as fully as if the Lender were the original owner of the Obligation purchased.

12.11 Section Titles. The Section titles and Table of Contents contained in this Agreement and any other Loan Document are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto.

12.12 Counterparts. Each Loan Document may be executed in any number of identical counterparts, which shall constitute an original and collectively and separately constitute a single instrument or agreement. Execution of any such counterpart may be evidenced by a facsimile transmission or electronic delivery of the signature of such party. The execution of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any Party hereto or thereto will not become effective until counterparts hereof or thereof, as the case may be, have been executed by all the parties hereto or thereto.

12.13 Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence for payment and performance of the Obligations.

12.14 GOVERNING LAW; VENUE. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING ALL

112

BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES, PURSUANT TO SECTION 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW, THAT THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, NEW YORK SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN BORROWER AND ANY CREDIT FACILITY LENDER PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS; PROVIDED THAT CREDIT FACILITY LENDERS AND BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE OF NEW YORK, NEW YORK; AND FURTHER PROVIDED THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE AGENT OR ANY CREDIT FACILITY LENDER FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO COLLECT THE OBLIGATIONS, TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF SUCH AGENT OR CREDIT FACILITY LENDER. BORROWER EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT. BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS AND OTHER PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO BORROWER AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 12.7 AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED UPON THE BORROWER’S ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF.

12.15 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. To the extent permitted by law, in connection with any action or proceeding, whether brought in state or federal court, Borrower, Agents and each Credit Facility Lender hereby expressly, intentionally and deliberately waive any right such party may otherwise have to trial by jury of any claim, cause of action, action, dispute or controversy between or among such parties, whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise, which arises out of or relates to: (i) any of the Loan Documents and any and all related documents, instruments and agreements, and any and all extensions, renewals, amendments and replacements of any of the foregoing, (ii) any negotiations or communications relating to the Loan Documents and any and all related documents, instruments and agreements, and any and all extensions, renewals, amendments and

113

replacements thereof, whether or not incorporated into the Loan Documents; or (iii) any alleged agreements, promises, representations or transactions in connection therewith.

12.16 Amendments; Consents. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, no amendment, modification, supplement, extension, termination or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no approval or consent thereunder, and no consent to any departure by Borrower or any other party therefrom, may in any event be effective unless in writing signed by Agents with the written approval of the Requisite Lenders (and, in the case of any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any Loan Document to which Borrower is a party, signed by Borrower, and, in the case of any amendment, modification or supplement to Section 13 or Section 14, signed by Administrative Agent or Security Agent, respectively), and then only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given; and, no amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent may be effective:

12.16.1 to extend or increase any Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver or amendment of any condition precedent in Article 4 or the waiver of any Event of Default shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender);

12.16.2 to reduce the principal of, or rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (provided that only the consent of the Requisite Lenders shall be necessary (x) to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive the obligation of Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate or (y) to amend any financial covenant (or any defined term directly or indirectly used therein), even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or other Obligation under the Loan Documents or to reduce any fee payable hereunder);

12.16.3 to postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, any Loan, or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, without written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby;

12.16.4 to change Section 2.13 or Section 12.10 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of and, if applicable, the order of payments required thereby without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby;

12.16.5 to increase the percentages of Net Book Value as set forth in paragraphs (a) – (g) in the definition of “Borrowing Base,” without the written consent of all the Lenders;

12.16.6 to (i) release all or a substantial portion of the Collateral from the Lien of the Collateral Documents if the effect thereof would be to cause a Borrowing Base Deficiency, or (ii) amend the provisions of the definition of “Requisite Lenders,” or (iii) release all of substantially all of the value of the Subsidiary Guaranties of the Obligations, in each case without the written consent of all the Lenders;

114

12.16.7 to waive any Default or Event of Default for purposes of Section 4.2 without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; or

12.16.8 to amend or waive this Section 12.16 or any other provision of this Agreement that expressly requires the consent or approval of all or a specified portion of the Lenders, without the written consent of all the Lenders;

provided, further, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties hereunder or under any other Loan Document of (A) Administrative Agent, unless in writing executed by Administrative Agent, (B) any Issuing Lender, unless in writing executed by such Issuing Lender and (C) Swing Line Lender, unless in writing executed by such Swing Line Lender, in each case in addition to Borrower and the Lenders required above.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent that by its terms requires the consent of all the 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, the maturity of any of its Loan may not be extended, the rate of interest on any of its Loans may not be reduced and the principal amount of any of its Loans may not be forgiven, in each case without the consent of such Defaulting Lender, and (y) any amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of all the Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than the other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Any amendment, modification, supplement, termination, waiver or consent pursuant to this Section 12.16 shall apply equally to, and shall be binding upon, all the Lenders and Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Agents and Borrower may amend any Loan Document to correct any errors, mistakes, omissions, defects or inconsistencies, or to affect administrative changes that are not adverse to any Lender, and such amendment shall become effective without further consent of any other party to such Loan Document other than Borrower, Administrative Agent and, if applicable, Security Agent.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall have the discretion, is authorized to grant and may direct the Security Agent to grant any consent, waiver, amendment, release of Collateral or other accommodation reasonably necessary to incur any Indebtedness of any Special Purpose Financing Vehicle permitted hereunder, provided that after giving effect to such Indebtedness, Borrower shall not be in Default of any of its obligations hereunder and such Indebtedness will not adversely affect the interest of the Lenders.

12.17 Foreign Lenders and Participants. Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent), on or before the Closing Date (or on or before accepting an assignment or receiving a participation interest herein pursuant to Section 12.8, if applicable) (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrower or Administrative Agent) two duly completed copies, signed by an authorized officer, of either Form W-8BEN-E (relating to such

115

Lender and entitling it to a complete exemption from withholding on all payments to be made to such Lender by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement) or Form W‑8ECI or other appropriate Form W-8 or Form W-9, as applicable, satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent that no withholding under the federal income tax laws is required with respect to such Foreign Lender. Thereafter and from time to time, each such Foreign Lender shall (a) promptly submit to Borrower (with a copy to Administrative Agent), such additional duly completed and signed copies of one of such forms (or such successor forms as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is satisfactory to Borrower and Administrative Agent of any available exemption from, United States withholding Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and (b) take such steps as shall not be materially disadvantageous to it, in the reasonable judgment of such Foreign Lender, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re designation of its LIBOR lending office, if any) to avoid any requirement of Applicable Laws that Borrower make any deduction or withholding for Taxes from amounts payable to such Foreign Lender. In the event that Borrower or Administrative Agent become aware that a participation has been granted pursuant to Section 12.8.5 to a financial institution that is a Foreign Lender, then, upon request made by Borrower or Administrative Agent to the Lender which granted such participation, such Lender shall cause such participant financial institution to deliver the same documents and information to Borrower and Administrative Agent as would be required under this Section if such financial institution were a Lender.

12.18 Custodial Agreement. The Security Agent has entered into one or more agreements with third parties pursuant to which agreements such third parties will hold custody to any or all of the Collateral as set forth in Schedule 5.23. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and each of the other Lenders hereto acknowledge and agree (i) to the terms and conditions of the Custodial Agreement; (ii) that the third party custodian thereto may hold each of the documents and instruments to be delivered therein, including without limitation, the “chattel paper” original of each Lease, for the benefit of the Security Agent; and (iii) that the Security Agent shall not be liable in the event of any damage, loss or destruction of any of the documents or instruments to be delivered therein, including without limitation, the “chattel paper” originals of each Lease, by such third party custodian.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:


(a)	the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(iii)	the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

12.20 Disclaimer of Fiduciary Obligations. In connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby (including in connections with any amendment, or waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its understanding, that: (i) the services regarding this Agreement provided by the Lenders are arm’s length commercial transactions between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Lenders, on the other hand, and (ii) each Lender is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as a fiduciary for the Borrower.

13. ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

13.1 Appointment and Authorization. Subject to Section 12.8, each Credit Facility Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms thereof or are reasonably incidental, as determined by Administrative Agent, thereto. This appointment and authorization is intended solely for the purpose of facilitating the servicing of the Loans and does not constitute appointment of Administrative Agent as trustee for any Credit Facility Lender or as representative of any Credit Facility Lender for any other purpose

118

and, except as specifically set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, Administrative Agent shall take such action and exercise such powers only in an administrative and ministerial capacity.

13.2 Administrative Agent and Affiliates. MUFG Bank, Ltd. (and each successor Administrative Agent) has the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Credit Facility Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” includes MUFG Bank, Ltd. in its individual capacity. MUFG Bank, Ltd. (and each successor Administrative Agent) and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with Borrower or any Affiliate of Borrower, as if it were not Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to Credit Facility Lenders. MUFG Bank, Ltd. (and each successor Administrative Agent) need not account to any other Credit Facility Lender for any monies received by it in its capacity as a Credit Facility Lender hereunder. Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to hold a fiduciary relationship with any Credit Facility Lender and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against Administrative Agent.

13.3 Lenders’ Credit Decisions. Each Credit Facility Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, any other Credit Facility Lender or the directors, officers, agents, employees or attorneys of the foregoing parties, and instead in reliance upon information supplied to it by or on behalf of Borrower and upon such other information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own independent credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Credit Facility Lender also agrees that it shall, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent, any other Credit Facility Lender or the directors, officers, agents, employees or attorneys of the foregoing parties, continue to make its own independent credit analyses and decisions in acting or not acting under the Loan Documents.

13.4 Action by Administrative Agent.

13.4.1 Absent actual knowledge of Administrative Agent of the existence of a Default, Administrative Agent may assume that no Default has occurred and is continuing, unless Administrative Agent (or the Credit Facility Lender that is then Administrative Agent) has received notice from Borrower stating the nature of the Default or has received notice from a Credit Facility Lender stating the nature of the Default and that such Credit Facility Lender considers the Default to have occurred and to be continuing.

13.4.2 Administrative Agent has only those obligations under the Loan Documents as are expressly set forth therein.

13.4.3 Except for any obligation expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and as long as Administrative Agent may assume that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, exercise its discretion to act or not act, except that Administrative Agent shall be required to act or not act upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or of all the Lenders, to the extent required by Section 12.16) and those instructions shall be binding upon Administrative Agent and Credit Facility Lenders, provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to act or not act if to do so would be contrary to any

119

Loan Document or to Applicable Law or would result, in the reasonable judgment of Administrative Agent, in substantial risk of liability to Administrative Agent.

13.4.4 If Administrative Agent has received a notice of any Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall immediately give notice thereof to Credit Facility Lenders and shall act or not act upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or of all the Lenders, to the extent required by Section 12.16), provided that Administrative Agent shall not be required to act or not act if to do so would be contrary to any Loan Document or to Applicable Law or would result, in the reasonable judgment of Administrative Agent, in substantial risk of liability to Administrative Agent, and except that if the Requisite Lenders fail, for five (5) Business Days after the receipt of notice from Administrative Agent, to instruct Administrative Agent, then Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may act or not act as it deems advisable for the protection of the interests of Credit Facility Lenders.

13.4.5 Absent its gross negligence or willful misconduct, Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any Credit Facility Lender for acting, or not acting, as instructed by the Requisite Lenders, notwithstanding any other provision hereof.

13.5 Liability of Administrative Agent. Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or attorneys shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by them under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation on the foregoing, Administrative Agent and its directors, officers, agents, employees and attorneys:

13.5.1 May treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until Administrative Agent receives notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent, signed by the payee, and may treat each Credit Facility Lender as the owner of that Credit Facility Lender’s interest in the Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement until Administrative Agent receives notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, in form satisfactory to Administrative Agent, signed by that Credit Facility Lender;

13.5.2 May consult with legal counsel (including in-house legal counsel), accountants (including in house accountants) and other professionals or experts selected by it, or with legal counsel, accountants or other professionals or experts for Borrower or Credit Facility Lenders, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in good faith in accordance with any advice of such legal counsel, accountants or other professionals or experts selected by it with reasonable care;

13.5.3 Shall not be responsible to any Credit Facility Lender for any statement, warranty or representation made in any of the Loan Documents or in any notice, certificate, report, request or other statement (written or oral) given or made in connection with any of the Loan Documents except for those expressly made by it;

13.5.4 Except to the extent expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, shall have no duty to ask or inquire as to the performance or observance by Borrower of any of the terms,

120

conditions or covenants of any of the Loan Documents or to inspect any collateral or any Property, books or records of Borrower;

13.5.5 Will not be responsible to any Credit Facility Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, effectiveness, sufficiency or value of any Loan Document, any other instrument or writing furnished pursuant thereto or in connection therewith, or any collateral;

13.5.6 Will not incur any liability by acting or not acting in reliance upon any Loan Document, notice, consent, certificate, statement, request or other instrument or writing reasonably believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties; and

13.5.7 Will not incur any liability for any arithmetical error in computing any amount paid or payable by Borrower thereof or paid or payable to or received or receivable from any Credit Facility Lender under any Loan Document, including, without limitation, principal, interest, commitment fees, Loans and other amounts; provided that, promptly upon discovery of such an error in computation, Administrative Agent, Credit Facility Lenders and (to the extent applicable) Borrower shall make such adjustments as are necessary to correct such error and to restore the parties to the position that they would have occupied had the error not occurred.

13.6 Indemnification. Each Credit Facility Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its proportion of the aggregate Indebtedness then evidenced by the Notes, indemnify and hold Administrative Agent and its directors, officers, agents, employees and attorneys harmless against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and allocated costs of attorneys employed by Administrative Agent) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against it or them in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents (other than losses incurred by reason of the failure of Borrower to pay the Indebtedness represented by the Notes) or any action taken or not taken by it as Administrative Agent thereunder, except such as result from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation on the foregoing, each Credit Facility Lender shall reimburse Administrative Agent upon demand for that Credit Facility Lender’s share (as set forth in this Section) of any out of pocket cost or expense incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, amendment, waiver, restructuring, reorganization (including a bankruptcy reorganization), enforcement or attempted enforcement of the Loan Documents, to the extent that Borrower or any other party is required by Section 12.2 to pay that cost or expense but fails to do so upon demand. Nothing in this Section 13.6 shall entitle Administrative Agent or any indemnitee referred to above to recover any amount from Credit Facility Lenders if and to the extent that such amount has theretofore been recovered from Borrower. To the extent that Administrative Agent or any indemnitee referred to above is later reimbursed such amount by Borrower, it shall return the amounts paid to it by Credit Facility Lenders in respect of such amount.

13.7 Successor Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Requisite Lenders shall, resign as Administrative Agent upon reasonable notice to Credit Facility Lenders and Borrower, effective upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Administrative Agent. If Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the

121

Requisite Lenders shall appoint from among Credit Facility Lenders a successor Administrative Agent for Credit Facility Lenders, which successor Administrative Agent shall be approved by Borrower (and such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless an Event of Default has then occurred and is continuing. If no successor Administrative Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with Credit Facility Lenders and Borrower, a successor Administrative Agent from among Credit Facility Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 13, and Section 12.3, shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (a) Administrative Agent has not been paid those fees referenced in Section 2.6.3 or has not been reimbursed for any expense reimbursable to it under Sections 12.2 or 12.3, in either case for a period of at least one (1) year and (b) no successor Administrative Agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Credit Facility Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Any resignation by MUFG Bank, Ltd. as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Issuing Lender (with respect to the portion of the Letter of Credit Sublimit assigned to it) and Swing Line Lender. If MUFG Bank Ltd. resigns as an Issuing Lender, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of Issuing Lender hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Lender and all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto, including the right to require the Lenders to make Revolving Loans or fund risk participations in such Letters of Credit pursuant to applicable provisions of Section 2.3. If MUFG Bank Ltd., resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Revolving Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Loans pursuant to the applicable provisions of Section 2.2. Upon the acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swing Line Lender and an Issuing Lender (with respect to the portion of Letter of Credit Sublimit assigned to MUFG Bank Ltd.) or Swing Line Lender, as applicable, (ii) the retiring Issuing Lender and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and (iii) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, issued by MUFG Bank Ltd. and outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to MUFG Bank Ltd. to effectively assume the obligations of MUFG Bank Ltd. with respect to such Letters of Credit.

13.8 No Obligations of Borrower. Nothing contained in this Section 13 shall be deemed to impose upon Borrower any obligation in respect of the due and punctual performance by

122

Administrative Agent of its obligations to Credit Facility Lenders under any provision of this Agreement, and Borrower shall have no liability to Administrative Agent or any of Credit Facility Lenders in respect of any failure by Administrative Agent or any Credit Facility Lender to perform any of its obligations to Administrative Agent or Credit Facility Lenders under this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, where any provision of this Agreement relating to the payment of any amounts due and owing under the Loan Documents provides that such payments shall be made by Borrower to Administrative Agent for the account of Credit Facility Lenders, Borrower’s obligations to Credit Facility Lenders in respect of such payments shall be deemed to be satisfied upon the making of such payments to Administrative Agent in the manner provided by this Agreement. In addition, Borrower may rely on a written statement by Administrative Agent to the effect that it has obtained the written consent of the Requisite Lenders or Credit Facility Lenders, as applicable under Section 12.16, in connection with a waiver, amendment, consent, approval or other action by Credit Facility Lenders hereunder, and shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the same.

13.9 No Other Duties, Etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Person identified herein or on the facing page or signature pages hereof as a “Syndication Agent,” “Documentation Agent,” “Co‑Agent,” “Book Manager,” “Bookrunner,” “Joint Bookrunner,” “Lead Arranger,” “Arranger,” “Joint Lead Arranger,” “Managing Agent,” or “Senior Managing Agent,” if any, will have or be deemed to have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, other than in such Person’s capacity as (a) Administrative Agent, Security Agent or a Credit Facility Lender hereunder and (b) an Indemnified Person hereunder, and no such Person will have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on such Persons in deciding to enter into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in taking or not taking any action hereunder or thereunder.

14. SECURITY AGENT

14.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each Credit Facility Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes Security Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Collateral Documents and any other Loan Documents as are delegated to Security Agent by the terms thereof or are reasonably incidental, as determined by Security Agent, thereto. This appointment and authorization is intended solely for the purpose of securing the Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and does not constitute appointment of Security Agent as trustee for any Credit Facility Lender or as representative of any Credit Facility Lender for any other purpose and, except as specifically set forth in the Loan Documents to the contrary, Security Agent shall take such action and exercise such powers only in an administrative and ministerial capacity.

14.2 Security Agent and Affiliates. MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (and each successor Security Agent) shall not be deemed to hold a fiduciary relationship with any Credit Facility Lender and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or otherwise exist against Security Agent.

123

14.3 Proportionate Interest in any Collateral. Security Agent, on behalf of Credit Facility Lenders, shall hold in accordance with the Loan Documents all items of any collateral or interests therein to be received or held by Security Agent. Subject to Agents’ and Credit Facility Lenders’ rights to reimbursement for their costs and expenses hereunder (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and other professional services and the reasonably allocated costs of attorneys employed by Security Agent or a Credit Facility Lender) and subject to the application of payments in accordance with Section 9.4, each Credit Facility Lender shall have an interest in such collateral or interests therein in the same proportion that the aggregate obligations owed such Credit Facility Lender under the Loan Documents bears to the aggregate obligations owed under the Loan Documents, without priority or preference among Credit Facility Lenders.

14.4 Lenders’ Credit Decisions. Each Credit Facility Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon Security Agent, any other Credit Facility Lender or the directors, officers, agents, employees or attorneys of the foregoing parties, and instead in reliance upon information supplied to it by or on behalf of Borrower and upon such other information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own independent credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Credit Facility Lender also agrees that it shall, independently and without reliance upon Security Agent, any other Credit Facility Lender or the directors, officers, agents, employees or attorneys of the foregoing parties, continue to make its own independent credit analyses and decisions in acting or not acting under the Loan Documents.

14.5 Action by Security Agent.

14.5.1 Absent actual knowledge of Security Agent of the existence of a Default, Security Agent may assume that no Default has occurred and is continuing, unless Security Agent (or the Lender that is then Security Agent) has received notice from Borrower stating the nature of the Default or has received notice from a Credit Facility Lender stating the nature of the Default and that such Credit Facility Lender considers the Default to have occurred and to be continuing.

14.5.2 Security Agent has only those obligations under the Loan Documents as are expressly set forth therein.

14.5.3 Except for any obligation expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and as long as Security Agent may assume that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Security Agent may, but shall not be required to, exercise its discretion to act or not act, except that Security Agent shall be required to act or not act upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or of all the Lenders, to the extent required by Section 12.16) and those instructions shall be binding upon Security Agent and all Credit Facility Lenders, provided that Security Agent shall not be required to act or not act if to do so would be contrary to any Loan Document or to Applicable Law or would result, in the reasonable judgment of Security Agent, in substantial risk of liability to Security Agent.

14.5.4 If Security Agent has received a notice specified in Section 14.5.1, Security Agent shall immediately give notice thereof to Credit Facility Lenders and shall act or not act upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or of all the Lenders, to the extent required by Section 12.16), provided that Security Agent shall not be required to act or not act if to do so would be contrary to any Loan Document or to Applicable Law or would result, in the reasonable judgment

124

of Security Agent, in substantial risk of liability to Security Agent, and except that if the Requisite Lenders fail, for five (5) Business Days after the receipt of notice from Security Agent, to instruct Security Agent, then Security Agent, in its sole discretion, may act or not act as it deems advisable for the protection of the interests of Credit Facility Lenders.

14.5.5 Absent its gross negligence or willful misconduct, Security Agent shall have no liability to any Credit Facility Lender for acting, or not acting, as instructed by the Requisite Lenders, notwithstanding any other provision hereof.

14.6 Liability of Security Agent. Neither Security Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or attorneys shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by them under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation on the foregoing, Security Agent and its directors, officers, agents, employees and attorneys:

14.6.1 May treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until Security Agent receives notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, signed by the payee, and may treat each Credit Facility Lender as the owner of that Credit Facility Lender’s interest in the Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement until Security Agent receives notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, signed by that Credit Facility Lender;

14.6.2 May consult with legal counsel (including in-house legal counsel), accountants (including in house accountants) and other professionals or experts selected by it, or with legal counsel, accountants or other professionals or experts for Borrower or Credit Facility Lenders, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in good faith in accordance with any advice of such legal counsel, accountants or other professionals or experts selected by it with reasonable care;

14.6.3 Shall not be responsible to any Credit Facility Lender for any statement, warranty or representation made in any of the Loan Documents or in any notice, certificate, report, request or other statement (written or oral) given or made in connection with any of the Loan Documents except for those expressly made by it;

14.6.4 Except to the extent expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, shall have no duty to ask or inquire as to the performance or observance by Borrower of any of the terms, conditions or covenants of any of the Loan Documents or to inspect any collateral or any Property, books or records of Borrower;

14.6.5 Will not be responsible to any Credit Facility Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, effectiveness, sufficiency or value of any Loan Document, any other instrument or writing furnished pursuant thereto or in connection therewith, or any collateral; and

14.6.6 Will not incur any liability by acting or not acting in reliance upon any Loan Document, notice, consent, certificate, statement, request or other instrument or writing reasonably believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

125

14.7 Indemnification. Each Credit Facility Lender shall, ratably in accordance with its proportion of the aggregate Indebtedness then evidenced by the Notes, indemnify and hold Security Agent and its directors, officers, agents, employees and attorneys harmless against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and allocated costs of attorneys employed by Security Agent) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against it or them in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents (other than losses incurred by reason of the failure of Borrower to pay the Indebtedness represented by the Notes) or any action taken or not taken by it as Security Agent thereunder, except such as result from its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation on the foregoing, each Credit Facility Lender shall reimburse Security Agent upon demand for that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any out of pocket cost or expense incurred by Security Agent in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, amendment, waiver, restructuring, reorganization (including a bankruptcy reorganization), enforcement or attempted enforcement of the Loan Documents, to the extent that Borrower or any other party is required by Section 12.2 to pay that cost or expense but fails to do so upon demand. Nothing in this Section 14.7 shall entitle Security Agent or any indemnitee referred to above to recover any amount from Credit Facility Lenders if and to the extent that such amount has theretofore been recovered from Borrower. To the extent that Security Agent or any indemnitee referred to above is later reimbursed such amount by Borrower, it shall return the amounts paid to it by Credit Facility Lenders in respect of such amount.

14.8 Successor Security Agent. Security Agent may, and at the request of the Requisite Lenders shall, resign as Security Agent upon reasonable notice to Credit Facility Lenders and Borrower effective upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Security Agent. If Security Agent shall resign as Security Agent under this Agreement, the Requisite Lenders shall appoint from among Credit Facility Lenders a successor Security Agent for Credit Facility Lenders, which successor Security Agent shall be approved by Borrower (and such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor Security Agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Security Agent, Security Agent may appoint, after consulting with Credit Facility Lenders and Borrower, a successor Security Agent from among Credit Facility Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor Security Agent hereunder, such successor Security Agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Security Agent and the term “Security Agent” shall mean such successor Security Agent and the retiring Security Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Security Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Security Agent’s resignation hereunder as Security Agent, the provisions of this Section 14, and Section 12.3, shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Security Agent under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (a) Security Agent has not been paid those fees referenced in Section 2.6.3 or has not been reimbursed for any expense reimbursable to it under Sections 12.2 or 12.3, in either case for a period of at least one (1) year and (b) no successor Security Agent has accepted appointment as Security Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following a retiring Security Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Security Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and Credit Facility Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Security Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Requisite Lenders appoint a successor Security Agent as provided for above.

126

14.9 Collateral Matters. (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs Agents to enter into the Loan Documents for the benefit of such Lender. Agents are hereby authorized on behalf of all of Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender from time to time prior to, an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Loan Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Loan Documents. Each Lender (and Swap Lender) hereby irrevocably authorizes each Agent, at its option and in its discretion:

(i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by such Agent under any Loan Document (1) upon termination of the Revolving Commitment and payment in full of all Obligations, (2) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted or provided for hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (3) subject to Section 12.16, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Requisite Lenders, (4) in connection with any foreclosure sale or other disposition of Collateral after the occurrence of an Event of Default or (5) to the extent such property is not part of the Collateral; and

(ii) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by such Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Upon request by either Agent at any time, each Lender will confirm in writing such Agent's authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 14.9.

(b) Subject to (a) above, each Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender), to execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release or subordination of the Liens granted to Security Agent for the benefit of Security Agent and Lenders herein or pursuant hereto upon the applicable Collateral; provided that (i) such Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in such Agent's opinion, would expose such Agent to or create any liability or entail any consequence other than the release or subordination of such Liens without recourse or warranty and (ii) such release or subordination shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens upon (or obligations of Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by Borrower, including the proceeds of the sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. In the event of any sale or transfer of Collateral, or any foreclosure with respect to any of the Collateral, such Agent shall be authorized to deduct all expenses reasonably incurred by such Agent from the proceeds of any such sale, transfer or foreclosure.

(c) Each Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Borrower any other Person or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to Security Agent herein or in any of the Loan Documents or pursuant hereto or thereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to such Agent in this Section 14.9 or in any of the Loan

127

Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, such Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, except as otherwise provided for herein, and that such Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except as otherwise provided for herein.

(d) Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting Lenders' security interest in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than Security Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Agents thereof, and, promptly upon either Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to Security Agent or in accordance with such Agent's instructions.

14.10 No Obligations of Borrower. Nothing contained in this Section 14 shall be deemed to impose upon Borrower any obligation in respect of the due and punctual performance by Security Agent of its obligations to Credit Facility Lenders under any provision of this Agreement, and Borrower shall have no liability to Security Agent or any of Credit Facility Lenders in respect of any failure by Security Agent or any Credit Facility Lender to perform any of its obligations to Security Agent or Credit Facility Lenders under this Agreement.

15. COMMITMENT COSTS AND RELATED MATTERS.

15.1 Eurodollar Costs and Related Matters.

15.1.1 In the event that any Governmental Authority imposes on any Credit Facility Lender any reserve, special deposit or comparable requirement (including any emergency, supplemental or other reserve) with respect to the Eurodollar liabilities (as defined in Regulation D or any comparable regulation of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over any Credit Facility Lender) of any Credit Facility Lender, Borrower shall pay such lender within five (5) Business Days after demand all amounts necessary to compensate such Credit Facility Lender (determined as though such lender’s LIBOR lending office had funded 100% of its LIBOR Loan in the Designated Eurodollar Market) in respect of the imposition of such reserve requirements (provided that Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any such amount which arose prior to the date which is forty five (45) days preceding the date of such demand or is attributable to periods prior to the date which is forty five (45) days preceding the date of such demand). Such Credit Facility Lender’s determination of such amount shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

15.1.2 If, after the date hereof, the existence or occurrence of any Special Eurodollar Circumstance:

(a) shall subject any Credit Facility Lender or its LIBOR lending office to any tax, duty or other charge or cost with respect to any LIBOR Loan, its Note evidencing such LIBOR Loan(s) or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Credit Facility Lender attributable to the principal of or interest on any LIBOR Loan or any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of any LIBOR Loan, its Note evidencing such LIBOR Loan(s) or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans, excluding Taxes imposed on or measured in whole or in part by its overall net income by (a) any jurisdiction (or political

128

subdivision thereof) in which it is organized or maintains its principal office or LIBOR lending office or (b) any jurisdiction (or political subdivision thereof) in which it is “doing business”;

(b) shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve not applicable or deemed applicable on the date hereof (including any reserve imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, special deposit, capital or similar requirements against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Credit Facility Lender or its LIBOR lending office); or

(c) shall impose on any Credit Facility Lender or its LIBOR lending office or the Designated Eurodollar Market any other condition affecting any LIBOR Loan, its Note evidencing such LIBOR Loan(s), its obligation to make LIBOR Loans or this Agreement, or shall otherwise affect any of the same;

and the result of any of the foregoing, as determined in good faith by any Credit Facility Lender, increases the cost to any Credit Facility Lender or its LIBOR lending office of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan or in respect of any LIBOR Loan, any Note evidencing LIBOR Loans or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans or reduces the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Credit Facility Lender or its LIBOR lending office with respect to any LIBOR Loan, its Note evidencing such LIBOR Loan(s) or its obligation to make LIBOR Loans (assuming such Credit Facility Lender’s LIBOR lending office had funded 100% of its LIBOR Loan in the Designated Eurodollar Market), then, within five (5) Business Days after demand by such lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to such Credit Facility Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such lender for such increased cost or reduction (determined as though such Credit Facility Lender’s LIBOR lending office had funded 100% of its LIBOR Loan in the Designated Eurodollar Market); provided that Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any such amount which arose prior to the date which is ninety (90) days preceding the date of such demand or is attributable to periods prior to the date which is ninety (90) days preceding the date of such demand. A statement of Credit Facility Lender claiming compensation under this subsection shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

15.1.3 If, after the date hereof, the existence or occurrence of any Special Eurodollar Circumstance shall, in the good faith opinion of Credit Facility Lender, make it unlawful or impossible for Credit Facility Lender or its LIBOR lending office to make, maintain or fund its portion of any LIBOR Loan, or materially restrict the authority of Credit Facility Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the Designated Eurodollar Market, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the LIBOR Basis, and Credit Facility Lender shall so notify Administrative Agent, then such Credit Facility Lender’s obligation to make LIBOR Loans shall be suspended for the duration of such illegality or impossibility and Credit Facility Lender forthwith shall give notice thereof to the other Credit Facility Lenders and Borrower. Upon receipt of such notice, the outstanding principal amount of such Credit Facility Lender’s LIBOR Loans, together with accrued interest thereon, automatically shall be converted to Base Rate Loans on either (1) the last day of the LIBOR Loan Period(s) applicable to such LIBOR Loans if such lender may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such LIBOR Loans to such day(s) or (2) immediately if such lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day(s), provided that in such

129

event the conversion shall not be subject to payment of a prepayment fee under Section 2.8.5. Credit Facility Lenders agrees to endeavor promptly to notify Borrower of any event of which it has actual knowledge, occurring after the Closing Date, which will cause any Credit Facility Lender to notify Administrative Agent under this Section, and agrees to designate a different LIBOR lending office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such lender. In the event that any Credit Facility Lender is unable, for the reasons set forth above, to make, maintain or fund its portion of any LIBOR Loan, such Credit Facility Lender shall fund such amount as a Base Rate Loan for the same period of time, and such amount shall be treated in all respects as a Base Rate Loan. Any Credit Facility Lender whose obligation to make LIBOR Loans has been suspended under this Section shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and Borrower of the cessation of the Special Eurodollar Circumstance which gave rise to such suspension. Borrower shall have the right to terminate the Commitment of any Credit Facility Lender for which the funding of LIBOR Loans becomes unlawful or impossible, as set forth above, and to substitute a new Credit Facility Lender into this Agreement subject to the provisions of Section 12.8 of this Agreement.

15.1.4 If, with respect to any proposed LIBOR Loan, any Credit Facility Lender:

(a) reasonably determines that, by reason of circumstances affecting the Designated Eurodollar Market generally that are beyond the reasonable control of such lender, deposits in Dollars (in the applicable amounts) are not being offered to lender in the Designated Eurodollar Market for the applicable LIBOR Loan Period; or

(b) LIBOR Basis as determined by such lender (i) does not represent the effective pricing to lender for deposits in Dollars in the Designated Eurodollar Market in the relevant amount for the applicable LIBOR Loan Period, or (ii) will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such lender of making the applicable LIBOR Loans;

then such Credit Facility Lender forthwith shall give notice thereof to Borrower and Administrative Agent, whereupon until such Credit Facility Lender notifies Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of such Credit Facility Lender to make any future LIBOR Loans shall be suspended and such Credit Facility Lender’s Loans shall be treated in all respects as a Base Rate Loan.

15.1.5 Each Credit Facility Lender agrees to endeavor promptly to notify Borrower of any event of which it has actual knowledge, occurring after the Closing Date, which will entitle any Credit Facility Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section, and agrees to designate a different LIBOR lending office if such designation will avoid the need for or reduce the amount of such compensation and will not, in the good faith judgment of such lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to lender. Any request for compensation by any Credit Facility Lender under this Section shall set forth the basis upon which it has been determined that such an amount is due from Borrower, a calculation of the amount due, and a certification that the corresponding costs have been incurred by such lender.

15.2 Capital Adequacy. If, after the date hereof, any Credit Facility Lender (or any Affiliate of any Credit Facility Lender) shall have reasonably determined that the adoption of any Applicable

130

Law, governmental rule, regulation or order regarding the capital adequacy of banks or bank holding companies, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Credit Facility Lender (or any Affiliate of any Credit Facility Lender) with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of Credit Facility Lender (or any Affiliate of Credit Facility Lender) as a consequence of any of such Credit Facility Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which it could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of any Credit Facility Lender (or Affiliate of any Credit Facility Lender) with respect to capital adequacy immediately before such adoption, change or compliance and assuming that the capital of such Credit Facility Lender (or Affiliate of such Credit Facility Lender) was fully utilized prior to such adoption, change or compliance), then, upon demand by such Credit Facility Lender, Borrower shall immediately pay to such lender such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate such lender for any such reduction actually suffered; provided that there shall be no duplication of amounts paid to any Credit Facility Lender pursuant to this sentence and Section 15.1. For purposes of this Section 15.2, a change in Applicable Law, governmental rule, regulation or order shall include, without limitation, (x) any change made or which becomes effective on the basis of a law, treaty, rule, regulation, interpretation administration or implementation then in force, the effective date of which change is delayed by the terms of such law, treaty, rule, regulation, interpretation, administration or implementation, (y) the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Pub. L. 111-203, H.R. 4173) and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines, interpretations or directives promulgated thereunder or issued in connection therewith, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or promulgated, whether before or after the Closing Date and (z) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or promulgated, whether before or after the Closing Date. Such Credit Facility Lender’s determination of the amount to be paid to such lender by Borrower as a result of any event referred to in this Section 15.2 shall, absent manifest error, be deemed final, binding and conclusive upon Borrower.

15.3 Federal Reserve System/Wire Transfers. The obligation of any Credit Facility Lender to make any loan by wire transfer to Borrower or any other Person shall be subject to all Applicable Laws, including the policy of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System on Reduction of Payments System Risk as in effect from time to time. Borrower acknowledges that such laws, regulations and policy may delay the transmission of any funds to Borrower.

15.4 Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate. In the event any Credit Facility Lender (i) requests compensation pursuant to Section 15.1 or 15.2, above, (ii) delivers a notice described in Section 15.1 or 15.2, above, (iii) refuses to consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document requested by any Borrower and which amendment, waiver or other modification is either required under this Agreement for such amendment, waiver or other modification or has otherwise been approved by the Requisite Lenders, or (iv) is a Defaulting Lender, Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including with respect

131

to the assignment fee referred to in Section 12.8), upon notice to such Credit Facility Lender and Administrative Agent (the “Mitigation Notice”), require such Credit Facility Lender to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 12.8), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such assigned obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (y) Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, and (z) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the affected Credit Facility Lender in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans of such Credit Facility Lender, respectively, affected by such assignment plus all fees and other amounts accrued for the account of such Credit Facility Lender hereunder; provided that Borrower shall not be required to pay any costs and expenses that are incurred by a Defaulting Lender solely as a result of such Credit Facility Lender’s default of its obligations hereunder; provided further that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or event that resulted in such Credit Facility Lender’s claim for compensation or notice, as referred to above in (i) and (ii) of this Section 15.4, as the case may be, cease to cause such Credit Facility Lender to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 15.1 or 15.2, above, or cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 15.1 or 15.2, as the case may be, or if such Credit Facility Lender shall waive its right to claim or notice under Section 15.1 or 15.2, as applicable in respect of such circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification, as the case may be, then such Credit Facility Lender shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder. Each Credit Facility Lender hereby grants to Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Credit Facility Lender as assignor, any Commitment Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Credit Facility Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this paragraph, which power of authority Administrative Agent shall be authorized to exercise if such Credit Facility Lender does not execute and deliver such Commitment Assignment and Acceptance within five (5) Business Days from the date of the Mitigation Notice delivered to such Credit Facility Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Credit Facility Lender in connection with any such filing or assignment, delegation and transfer; provided that Borrower shall not pay any such costs and expenses incurred by any Credit Facility Lender who has defaulted on its obligations to make loans or other extensions of credit.

15.5 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding

132

that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

(b) As used in this Section 15.5, the following terms have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);

(ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or

(iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

“QFC” has the meaning assigned to the term “qualified financial contract” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

Depreciation Policies

Based on specific aspects of the equipment, the Borrower generally depreciates engines on a straight-line basis over a 15-year period from the acquisition date to a 55% residual value. This methodology is believed to accurately reflect the Borrower’s typical holding period for the engine assets and, that the residual value assumption reasonably approximates the selling price of the assets 15 years from date of acquisition. The typical 15 year holding period is the estimated useful life of the Borrower’s engines based on its business model and plans and represents how long the Borrower anticipates holding a newly acquired engine. The technical useful life of a new engine can be in excess of 25 years. The Borrower reviews the useful life and residual values of all engines periodically as demand changes to accurately depreciate the cost of equipment over the useful life of the engines.

The aircraft and airframes owned by the Borrower are depreciated on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of 13 to 20 years to a 15% to 17% residual value. The other leased parts and related equipment owned by the Borrower are depreciated on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of 14 to 15 years to a 25% residual value.

The useful life of older generation engines and aircraft may be significantly less based upon the technical status of the engine, as well as supply and demand factors. For these older generation engines and aircraft, the remaining useful life and the remaining expected holding period are typically the same. For older generation engines or aircraft that are unlikely to be repaired at the end of the current expected useful lives, the Company depreciates the engines or aircraft over their estimated lives to a residual value based on an estimate of the wholesale value of the parts after disassembly.

The Borrower reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets to be disposed are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Impairment is identified by review of appraisals or by comparison of undiscounted forecasted cash flows, including estimated sales proceeds, over the life of the asset with the assets’ book value. If the forecasted undiscounted cash flows are less than the book value, the asset is written down to its fair value. Fair value is determined per individual asset by reference to independent appraisals, quoted market prices (e.g., an offer to purchase) and other factors considered relevant by the Borrower. The Borrower conducts a formal annual review of the carrying value of long-lived assets and also evaluates assets during the year if a triggering event is identified indicating impairment is possible.

Major overhauls paid for by the Borrower (including planned replacement of life limited parts, planned performance restorations, and qualifying unplanned maintenance events), which improve functionality or extend the original useful life, are capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the estimated period to the next overhaul (“deferral method”) or the remaining useful life of the equipment. The Borrower does not accrue for planned major maintenance. For equipment which

Schedule 5.21 - Page 1

is unlikely to be repaired at the end of its current expected life, and is likely to be disassembled upon lease termination, the Borrower depreciates the equipment over its estimated life to a residual value based on an estimate of the wholesale value of the parts after disassembly. If useful lives or residual values are lower than those estimated by the Borrower, upon sale of the equipment, a loss may be realized.
