The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. The word “law” shall be construed as referring to all statutes, rules, regulations, codes and other laws (including official rulings and interpretations thereunder having the force of law or with which affected Persons customarily comply), and all judgments, orders and decrees, of all Governmental Authorities. Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, restatements, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) any definition of or reference to any statute, rule or regulation shall be construed as referring thereto as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (including by succession of comparable successor laws), (c) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns (subject to any restrictions on assignment set forth herein) and, in the case of any Governmental Authority, any other Governmental Authority that shall have succeeded to any or all functions thereof, (d) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (e) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement and (f) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights. Any references in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to “Permitted Encumbrances” is not intended to subordinate or postpone, and shall not be interpreted as subordination or postponing, or as any agreement to subordinate or postpone, any Lien created by any of the Loan Documents to any Permitted Encumbrance.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with any Section of Article VI, in the event that any Lien, Investment, Indebtedness, Asset Sale, Restricted Payment or affiliate transaction meets the criteria of one or more of the categories of transactions permitted pursuant to any clause of any one of such Sections, such transaction (or portion thereof) at any time, shall be permitted under one or more of such clauses of such Section as determined by the applicable Borrower in its sole discretion at such time. For purposes of determining compliance with the incurrence of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness, Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt, Permitted Junior Secured Refinancing Debt, Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness and Permitted Unsecured Refinancing Debt that restricts the amount of such Indebtedness relative to the amount of Refinanced Debt, the Borrower may incur an incremental principal amount of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness, Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt, Permitted Junior Secured Refinancing Debt, Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness or Permitted Unsecured Refinancing Debt to the extent that the excess portion of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness, Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt, Permitted Junior Secured Refinancing Debt, Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness or

Permitted Unsecured Refinancing Debt would otherwise be permitted to be incurred in accordance with this Agreement. For purposes of determining compliance with the incurrence of any Indebtedness under Revolving Commitments in reliance on compliance with any ratio, if on the date such Revolving Commitments are established, the applicable ratio is satisfied after giving pro forma effect to the incurrence of the entire committed amount of then proposed Indebtedness thereunder, then such committed amount under such Revolving Commitments may thereafter be borrowed and reborrowed, in whole or in part, from time to time, without further compliance with any ratio.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement under a restrictive covenant (including Section 2.20) that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, any First Lien Net Leverage Ratio test, any Secured Net Leverage Ratio test or any Total Net Leverage Ratio test) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement in the same restrictive covenant (including Section 2.20) that requires compliance with any such financial ratio or test (any such amounts, the “Incurrence Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts (and any cash proceeds thereof) shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence Based Amounts in connection with such substantially concurrent incurrence.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, it is understood and agreed that in no event shall the Reorganization Plan Transactions or any other transactions expressly contemplated by the Reorganization Plan Documents, including any transactions directly related thereto or directly in connection therewith, result in the breach of any provision or covenant under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or constitute a “Default” or “Event of Default” hereunder or thereunder, and such transactions shall be permitted for all purposes hereunder and under each other Loan Document.

Section 1.04 Accounting Terms; GAAP; Pro Forma Calculations. (a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided that, if Parent notifies the Administrative Agent that Parent requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the Effective Date in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies Parent that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made (i) without giving effect to any election under Accounting Standards Codification 000-00-00 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of Parent or any Subsidiary at “fair value”, as defined therein, (ii) without giving effect to any treatment of Indebtedness in respect of convertible debt

instruments under Accounting Standards Codification 470-20 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any such Indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof and (iii) for the avoidance of doubt, except as provided in the definition of “Consolidated Net Income”, without giving effect to the financial condition, results and performance of the Unrestricted Subsidiaries.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, financial ratios and tests, including the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Secured Net Leverage Ratio and the Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 1.04; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clauses (c), (d), (e) or (f) of this Section 1.04, when calculating the Total Net Leverage Ratio for purposes of (i) the definition of “Applicable Rate,” (ii) the Applicable Excess Cash Flow Percentage for the purposes of the mandatory prepayment required by clause (3) of Section 2.11(c) and (iii) the Financial Covenant (other than for the purpose of determining pro forma compliance therewith), the events described in this Section 1.04 that occurred subsequent to the end of the applicable Reference Period shall not be given pro forma effect; provided however that voluntary prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) during any fiscal year (without duplication of any prepayments in such fiscal year that reduced the amount of Excess Cash Flow required to be repaid pursuant to Section 2.11(c) for any prior fiscal year) shall be given pro forma effect after such fiscal year-end and prior to the time any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(c) is due for purposes of calculating the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio for purposes of determining the Applicable Excess Cash Flow Percentage for such mandatory prepayment, if any. In addition, whenever a financial ratio or test is to be calculated on a pro forma basis, (1) the reference to “Reference Period” for purposes of calculating such financial ratio or test shall be deemed to be a reference to, and shall be based on, the most recently ended Reference Period for which Financials of Parent have been (or are required to be) delivered (it being understood that for purposes of determining pro forma compliance with the Financial Covenant, if no Reference Period with an applicable level cited in the Financial Covenant has passed, the applicable level shall be the level for the first Reference Period cited in the Financial Covenant with an indicated level) and (2) such calculation shall not net the cash proceeds of any Indebtedness being incurred at the time of such calculation.

(c) For purposes of calculating any financial ratio or test (or Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets), Specified Transactions (and, subject to clause (e) below, the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith) that have been made (a) during the applicable Reference Period or (b) subsequent to such Reference Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Reference Period (or, in the case of Consolidated Total Assets, on the last day of the applicable Reference Period). If since the beginning of any applicable Reference Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such Reference Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.04, then such financial ratio or test (or Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets) shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.04.

(d) Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a Financial Officer of Parent and may include, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of “run-rate” cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies projected by Parent in good faith to result from or relating to any Specified Transaction (including the Transactions and, for the avoidance of doubt, acquisitions occurring prior to the Effective Date) which is being given pro forma effect that have been realized or are expected to be realized and for which the actions necessary to realize such cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies are taken, committed to be taken or with respect to which substantial steps have been taken or are expected to be taken (in the good faith determination of Parent) (calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies had been realized on the first day of such period and as if such cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies were realized during the entirety of such period and “run-rate” means the full recurring benefit for a period that is associated with any action taken, committed to be taken or with respect to which substantial steps have been taken or are expected to be taken (including any savings expected to result from the elimination of a public target’s compliance costs with public company requirements), whether prior to or following the Effective Date, net of the amount of actual benefits realized during such period from such actions, and any such adjustments shall be included in the initial pro forma calculations of such financial ratios or tests and during any subsequent Reference Period in which the effects thereof are expected to be realized) relating to such Specified Transaction; provided that (a) such amounts are reasonably identifiable and factually supportable in the good faith judgment of Parent, (b) such actions are taken, committed to be taken or with respect to which substantial steps have been taken or are expected to be taken no later than eighteen (18) months after the date of such Specified Transaction (or actions undertaken or implemented prior to the consummation of such Specified Transaction), any such pro forma adjustments in respect of cost savings, synergies and operating expense reductions shall not exceed 20.0% of Consolidated EBITDA (prior to giving effect to such pro forma adjustments) as of the last day of the Reference Period and (c) no amounts shall be added to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Consolidated EBITDA (or any other components thereof), whether through a pro forma adjustment or otherwise, with respect to such period.

(e) In the event that Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs (including by assumption or guarantees), issues or repays (including by redemption, repurchase, repayment, retirement, discharge, defeasance or extinguishment) any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility or line of credit unless such Indebtedness has been permanently repaid and not replaced) included in the calculations of any financial ratio or test, (i) during the applicable Reference Period or (ii) subsequent to the end of the applicable Reference Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then such financial ratio or test shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence, issuance, repayment or redemption of Indebtedness to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable Reference Period.

(f) If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Swap Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on a Capital Lease Obligation shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a Financial Officer of Parent

to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capital Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, an interbank offered rate, or other rate shall be determined to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as Parent or applicable Restricted Subsidiary may designate.

(g) Any determination of Consolidated Total Assets shall be made by reference to the last day of the Reference Period most recently ended for which Financials of Parent have been delivered on or prior to the relevant date of determination.

(h) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any Loan Document to the contrary, when (a) calculating any applicable ratio, Consolidated Net Income or Consolidated EBITDA in connection with the incurrence of Indebtedness, the creation of Liens, the making of any Asset Sale, the making of an Investment or the making of a Restricted Payment, (b) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that no Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom, (c) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires compliance with any representation or warranties set forth herein or (d) determining the satisfaction of all other conditions precedent to the incurrence of Indebtedness, the creation of Liens, the making of any Asset Sale, the making of an Investment or the making of a Restricted Payment, in each case in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, the date of determination of such ratio or other provisions, determination of whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom, determination of compliance with any representations or warranties or the satisfaction of any other conditions shall, at the option of Parent (Parent’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election,” which LCT Election may be in respect of one or more of clauses (a), (b), (c) and (d) above), be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements (or other relevant definitive documentation) for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (the “LCT Test Date”). If on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, and the use of proceeds thereof), with such ratios and other provisions calculated as if such Limited Condition Transaction or other transactions had occurred at the beginning of the most recent Reference Period ending prior to the LCT Test Date for which Financials have been (or are required to be) delivered, Parent could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with the applicable ratios or other provisions, such provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with, unless an Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01(a), or, solely with respect to the Borrower, Section 7.01(h) shall be continuing on the date such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if, following the LCT Test Date, any of such ratios or other provisions are exceeded or breached as a result of fluctuations in such ratio (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or other components of such ratio) or other provisions at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Transactions, such ratios and other provisions will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been satisfied as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder and (ii) such ratios and compliance with such conditions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or related Specified Transactions, unless, other than if an Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01(a), or, solely with respect to the Borrower, Section 7.01(h), shall be continuing on such date, Parent elects, in its sole discretion, to

test such ratios and compliance with such conditions on the date such Limited Condition Transaction or related Specified Transactions is consummated. If Parent has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio, basket availability or compliance with any other provision hereunder (other than actual compliance with the Financial Covenant) on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earliest of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated, the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or the date Parent makes an election pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, any such ratio, basket or compliance with any other provision hereunder shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness or Disqualified Equity Interests, and the use of proceeds thereof) had been consummated on the LCT Test Date.

Section 1.05 Status of Obligations and Secured Obligations. In the event that Parent or any other Loan Party shall at any time issue or have outstanding any other Subordinated Indebtedness, Parent shall take or cause such other Loan Party to take all such actions as shall be necessary to cause the Secured Obligations to constitute senior indebtedness (however denominated) in respect of such Subordinated Indebtedness and to enable the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to have and exercise any payment blockage or other remedies available or potentially available to holders of senior indebtedness under the terms of such Subordinated Indebtedness. Without limiting the foregoing, the Secured Obligations are hereby designated as “senior indebtedness” and as “designated senior indebtedness” and words of similar import under and in respect of any indenture or other agreement or instrument under which such other Subordinated Indebtedness is outstanding and are further given all such other designations as shall be required under the terms of any such Subordinated Indebtedness in order that the Lenders may have and exercise any payment blockage or other remedies available or potentially available to holders of senior indebtedness under the terms of such Subordinated Indebtedness.

Section 1.08 Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under the laws of the State of Delaware (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) any reference to a merger, transfer, consolidation, amalgamation, consolidation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to a division of or by a limited liability company, or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited liability company (or the unwinding of such a division or allocation), as if it were a merger, transfer, consolidation, amalgamation, consolidation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, as applicable, to, of or with a separate Person and (b) any division of a limited liability company shall constitute a separate Person hereunder (and each division of any limited liability company that is a Subsidiary, joint venture or any other like term shall also constitute such a Person or entity).

The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. Any Swingline Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05. The Initial Term Loans shall amortize as set forth in Section 2.10.

(c) Each Canadian Dollar Revolving Loan shall be incurred and maintained as, and/or converted into one or more Borrowings of Term XXXXX Loans, in each case on the terms and conditions provided for herein.

(c) all outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure on and as of the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and, during the continuation of an Event of Default, on any other Business Day elected by the Administrative Agent in its discretion or upon instruction by the Required Lenders.

Such Dollar Amount shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and, if applicable, shall be the Dollar Amount of such amounts until the next Revaluation Date to occur.

Section 2.05 Swingline Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans in Dollars to the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding $50,000,000 (as such amount may be increased from time to time, but not above $75,000,000, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) and the Swingline Lender), (ii) the Dollar Amount of the total Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the aggregate Dollar Tranche Commitments or (iii) the Dollar Amount of the total Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the aggregate Revolving Commitments; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

(b) To request a Swingline Loan, a Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by telecopy), not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from a Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the applicable Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of such Borrower with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e), by remittance to the Issuing Bank) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.

(c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Dollar Tranche Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Dollar Tranche Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Dollar Tranche Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Dollar Tranche Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Dollar Tranche Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Dollar Tranche Lender’s Dollar Tranche Percentage (after giving effect to the reallocation provisions of paragraph (d) below) of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Dollar Tranche Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph in an amount equal to its Dollar Tranche Percentage thereof is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Dollar Tranche Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Dollar Tranche Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Dollar Tranche Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Dollar Tranche Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from a Borrower (or other party on behalf of such Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Dollar Tranche Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(d) Reallocations and Extensions. If the Maturity Date shall have occurred in respect of any Class of Revolving Commitments at a time when another Tranche or Tranches of any other Class of Revolving Commitments is or are in effect with a longer Maturity Date, then on the earliest occurring Maturity Date all then-outstanding Swingline Loans shall be repaid in full (and there shall be no adjustment to the participations in such Swingline Loans as a result of the occurrence of such earliest Maturity Date); provided, however, that if on the occurrence of such earliest Maturity Date (after giving effect to any repayments of Revolving Loans and any reallocation of Letter of Credit participations as contemplated in Section 2.06(k)), there shall exist sufficient unutilized Revolving Commitments of any other Class or Classes or Extended Revolving Commitments so that the respective outstanding Swingline Loans could be incurred pursuant to such Revolving Commitments of such other Class or Classes or Extended Revolving Commitments which will remain in effect after the occurrence of such earliest Maturity Date, then there shall be an automatic adjustment on such date of the risk participations of each Revolving Lender holding Revolving Commitments of such other Class or Classes or that is an

Extending Revolving Lender and such outstanding Swingline Loans shall be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to the relevant Revolving Commitments of such other Class or Classes or Extended Revolving Commitments and such Swingline Loans shall not be so required to be repaid in full on such earliest Maturity Date.

Section 2.06 Letters of Credit.

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of Multicurrency Tranche Letters of Credit denominated in Agreed Currencies and Dollar Tranche Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars, in each case for its own account, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period. Any letters of credit issued (or deemed to be issued) by any Lender party hereto as set forth on Schedule 2.06 hereto and outstanding as of the Effective Date (the “Existing Letters of Credit”) shall continue to be “Letters of Credit” (constituting (x) Dollar Tranche Letters of Credit, if denominated in Dollars and (y) Multicurrency Tranche Letters of Credit, if denominated in any Agreed Currency) for all purposes of the Loan Documents. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by a Borrower to, or entered into by such Borrower with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to an outstanding Letter of Credit), a Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of, but not less than five (5) Business Days prior to, the requested date of issuance) a notice in the form of Exhibit D requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit or amendment and specifying the date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section 2.06), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the Agreed Currency applicable thereto (subject to compliance with the limitation set forth in Section 2.01(c)(iv)), whether such Letter of Credit is a Multicurrency Tranche Letter of Credit or a Dollar Tranche Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such Letter of Credit or amendment. A Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form and related documents in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit and in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit amendment. A Letter of Credit or amendment shall be issued only (A) if (and upon issuance of each Letter of Credit and amendment, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance (i) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure shall not exceed $50,000,000 (as such amount may be increased from time to time, but not above $75,000,000, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) and each Issuing Bank (other than an Issuing Bank solely with respect to Existing Letters of Credit)), (ii) subject to Sections 2.04 and 2.11(b), the sum of the Dollar Amount of the total Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the aggregate Multicurrency Tranche Commitments, (iii) the sum of the Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the aggregate Dollar Tranche Commitments and (iv) the sum of the total Revolving Credit Exposures shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments and (B) in accordance with the Issuing Bank’s usual and customary practices and policies applicable to letters of credit in general from time to time.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any extension thereof, one year after such extension) and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date with respect to the Revolving Commitments pursuant to which issued (or if any Extended Revolving Commitments, Incremental Revolving Commitments or Other Refinancing Revolving Commitments are outstanding, the last Maturity Date applicable thereto (so long as the aggregate amount of such Letters of Credit are not in excess of such commitments)); provided that any Letter of Credit may contain customary automatic extension provisions agreed upon by the respective Borrower and the Issuing Bank pursuant to which the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”) shall automatically be extended for consecutive periods of up to twelve (12) months (but not to a date later than the date set forth in clause (ii) above); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day in each such twelve month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Bank, the respective Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than such Maturity Date.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or any Revolving Lender in respect of the Tranche under which such Letter of Credit is issued (each such Revolving Lender, an “Applicable Lender”), the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Applicable Lender, and each Applicable Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Applicable Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate Dollar Amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Applicable Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Applicable Lender’s Applicable Percentage (after giving effect to the reallocation provisions of paragraph (k) below) of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.06, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, reinstatement or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the respective Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Issuing Bank in Dollars the Dollar Amount equal to such LC Disbursement, calculated as of the date the Issuing Bank made such LC Disbursement (or if the Issuing Bank shall so elect in its sole discretion by notice to the respective Borrower, in such other Agreed Currency which was paid by the Issuing Bank pursuant to such LC Disbursement in an amount equal to such LC Disbursement) not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if a Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by a Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that a Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than the Dollar Amount of $1,000,000, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent Dollar Amount of such LC Disbursement and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Applicable Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Applicable Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage (after giving effect to the reallocation provisions of paragraph (k) below) of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Applicable Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Applicable Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Applicable Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by an Applicable Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. If the Borrower’s reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Foreign Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Multicurrency Tranche Lender to any stamp duty, ad valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in Dollars, the Borrower shall, at its option, either (x) pay the amount of any such tax requested by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the relevant Multicurrency Tranche Lender or (y) reimburse each LC Disbursement made in such Foreign Currency in Dollars, in an amount equal to the Equivalent Amount, calculated using the applicable exchange rates, on the date such LC Disbursement is made, of such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.06 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or

invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.06, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligation hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in translation, or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the respective Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the respective Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’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 the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

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

(h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans (or in the case such LC Disbursement is denominated in a Foreign Currency, at the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate for such Agreed Currency plus the then effective Applicable Rate with respect to Term SOFR Revolving Loans); provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.06, then Section 2.13(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Applicable Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section 2.06 to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Applicable Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement and Resignation of the Issuing Bank.

(i) The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding and issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(ii) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank, the Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, the resigning Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.06(i)(i) above.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that a Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, the Required Revolving Lenders) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders (the “LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 103% of the Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that (i) the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn Foreign Currency Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements in a Foreign Currency that the Borrower is not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the applicable Foreign Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC Disbursements and (ii) the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (h) or (i) of Section 7.01. For the purposes of this paragraph, the Foreign Currency LC Exposure shall be calculated using the applicable Exchange Rate on the date notice demanding cash collateralization is delivered to the Borrower. The Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(b). Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. The Administrative Agent

shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account and the Borrower hereby grants the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in the LC Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders), be applied to satisfy other Secured Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(b), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures would not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments and no Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(k) Reallocations and Extensions. If the Maturity Date in respect of any Class of Revolving Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if Extended Revolving Commitments or one or more other Tranches of Revolving Commitments of any other Class or Classes in respect of which the Maturity Date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.06(e)) under (and ratably participated in by Revolving Lenders pursuant to) Extended Revolving Commitments or the Revolving Commitments of such other Class or Classes in respect of such non-terminating Extended Revolving Commitments or Tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Extended Revolving Commitments or Revolving Commitments of such other Class or Classes thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to immediately preceding clause (i), the respective Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.06(j). Except to the extent of reallocations of participations pursuant to clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the occurrence of a Maturity Date with respect to a given Class of Revolving Commitments shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Revolving Lenders in any Letter of Credit issued before such Maturity Date.

(l) Issuing Bank Agreements. Each Issuing Bank (other than the Administrative Agent or its affiliates) agrees that, unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the daily activity (set forth by day) in respect of Letters of Credit during the immediately preceding week, including all issuances, extensions and amendments, all expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank expects to issue, amend or extend any

Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment or extension, and the currency and aggregate amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment or extension occurred (and whether the amount thereof changed), it being understood that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any issuance, extension or amendment resulting in an increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit to occur without first obtaining written confirmation from the Administrative Agent that it is then permitted under this Agreement, (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount and currency of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

Section 2.07 Funding of Borrowings. (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds (i) in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders and (ii) in the case of each Loan denominated in a Foreign Currency, by 12:00 noon, Local Time, in the city of the Administrative Agent’s Foreign Currency Payment Office for such currency and at such Foreign Currency Payment Office for such currency; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the respective Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to (x) an account of the applicable Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City or Chicago and designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars and (y) an account of the applicable Borrower in the relevant jurisdiction and designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request, in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Xxxxxx’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.07 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (including without limitation the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency) or (ii) in the case of a Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the relevant Class of ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

Section 2.08 Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type, and under the applicable Tranche, specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, subject to clause (e) below, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.08. The applicable Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section 2.08 shall not apply to Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or continued. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.08, the applicable Borrower shall not be permitted to change the Tranche or Class of any Borrowing.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.08, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election (by telephone or irrevocable written notice in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars or by irrevocable written notice (via an Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by such Borrower) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type and Class resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the applicable Borrower. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section 2.08 shall not be construed to permit the Borrower to (i) change the currency of any Borrowing, (ii) elect an Interest Period for Term Benchmark Loans that does not comply with Section 2.02(d) or (iii) convert any Borrowing to a Borrowing of a Type not available under the Class of Commitments or the Tranche pursuant to which such Borrowing was made.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing, a Term SOFR Borrowing, a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing or a Borrowing of Term XXXXX Loans and if such Borrowing is a Revolving Borrowing, whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Dollar Tranche Borrowing or a Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Interest Period and Agreed Currency (which shall comply with the limitation set forth in Section 2.01(c)(iv)) to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which Interest Period shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

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

(e) If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Term Benchmark Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period (i) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing, (ii) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars, such Borrowing shall be converted into a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing and (iii) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency (other than Canadian Dollars) in respect of which such Borrower shall have failed to deliver an Interest Election Request prior to the third (3^rd) Business Day preceding the end of such Interest Period, such Borrowing shall automatically continue as a Term Benchmark Borrowing in the same Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one month unless such Term Benchmark Borrowing is or was repaid in accordance with Section 2.11. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the applicable Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Term Benchmark Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, (A) each Term SOFR Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (B) each Borrowing of Term XXXXX Loans shall be converted at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto to a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing.

Section 2.09 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the Revolving Commitment of each Revolving Lender shall automatically and permanently terminate on the relevant Maturity Date and (ii) the Initial Term Loan Commitments (other than any Initial Term Loan Commitments that constitute Incremental Term Loan Commitments) of each Initial Term Lender shall automatically and permanently terminate on the Effective Date (after giving effect to the incurrence of such Term Loans on such date).

(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments of any Class under paragraph (b) of this Section 2.09 at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.09 shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments of any Class delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or one or more other events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by each applicable Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the applicable Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

Section 2.10 Repayment and Amortization of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promise to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date in the currency of such Loan, (ii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Latest Maturity Date with respect to any Revolving Commitments and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15^th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two (2) Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Dollar Tranche Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.

(b) Beginning on the last day of the second full fiscal quarter ending after the Effective Date, the Borrower shall repay principal of outstanding Initial Term Loans on each Scheduled Principal Repayment Date described below in the aggregate principal amount described opposite such Scheduled Principal Repayment Date (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.11(a), 2.11(d)(i), 2.20, 2.24, 2.25, 9.04(g) and 9.04(k)):


Scheduled Principal Repayment Dates		Amount
Each Scheduled Principal Repayment Date		0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of Initial Term Loans incurred on the Effective Date

Maturity Date		All remaining outstanding principal of Initial Term Loans

To the extent not previously repaid, all unpaid Initial Term Loans shall be paid in full in Dollars by the relevant Borrower on the applicable Maturity Date. To the extent specified in the applicable Extension Offer, amortization payments with respect to Extended Term Loans for periods prior to the then current Maturity Date for any applicable Term Loans may be reduced (but not increased) and amortization payments required with respect to Extended Term Loans for periods after such applicable Maturity Date shall be as specified in the applicable Extension Offer.

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

(d) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Tranche under which it was made, the Class, Agreed Currency and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the respective Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(e) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section 2.10 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(f) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender promissory notes payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory notes and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

Section 2.11 Prepayment of Loans. (a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (except as set forth in Section 2.12(d)) but subject to break funding payments required by Section 2.16, subject to prior notice in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.11(a). The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., Local Time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing or Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the applicable Tranche prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that a notice of prepayment may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by each applicable Borrower by notice to the Administrative Agent on or

prior to the specified effective date if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Revolving Loans included in the prepaid Revolving Borrowing, each voluntary prepayment of a Term Loan Borrowing shall be applied as directed by the Borrower and each mandatory prepayment of a Term Loan Borrowing shall be applied as directed by the Borrower (subject to Section 2.11(d)). Prepayments shall be accompanied by (i) accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13 and (ii) break funding payments pursuant to Section 2.16.

(b) If at any time, (i) solely as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all of the Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures (calculated, with respect to those Credit Events denominated in Foreign Currencies, as of the most recent Revaluation Date with respect to each such Credit Event) exceeds 105% of the aggregate Multicurrency Tranche Commitments, (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all Non-USD Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure (calculated as of the most recent Revaluation Date) exceeds 105% of the aggregate Non-USD Multicurrency Tranche Sublimit or (iii) for any other reason, the sum of the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all of the Revolving Credit Exposures of any Class (so calculated) exceeds the aggregate Commitments of such Class, the Borrower shall in each case immediately repay the applicable Borrowings or Cash Collateralize LC Exposure in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.06(j), as applicable, in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to cause the aggregate Dollar Amount of all Revolving Credit Exposures (so calculated) of each Class to be less than or equal to the aggregate Commitments of such Class (or, in the case of preceding clause (ii), cause the aggregate principal Dollar Amount of all Non-USD Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure to be less than or equal to the Non-USD Multicurrency Tranche Sublimit).

(c) (1) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received, prepay (x) the Obligations and (y) Other Applicable Indebtedness (to the extent and if required by the terms of the documentation governing such Other Applicable Indebtedness), in each case, as set forth in Section 2.11(d)(i) below in an aggregate amount equal to 100% (with step downs to (i) 50% based upon the achievement and maintenance of a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio of less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00 and (ii) 0% based upon the achievement and maintenance of a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio of less than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00 (each such step down, an “Asset Sale Step Down”)) of such Net Proceeds; provided that in the case of any event described in clause (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, the Borrower shall only be obligated to prepay, subject to the Asset Sale Step Down, the amount of the Net Proceeds received to the extent in excess of the applicable amounts set forth therein; provided, further, that in the case of any event described in clause (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, if Parent shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer to the effect that Parent or its relevant Restricted Subsidiaries intend to apply the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate), within 12 months after receipt of such Net Proceeds, to consummate a Permitted Acquisition or to otherwise acquire, replace, rebuild, maintain, develop,

100

construct, improve, upgrade or repair property, equipment or other assets (excluding inventory) useful in the business of Parent and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries, and certifying that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Proceeds specified in such certificate; provided, further, that to the extent of any such Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so applied by the end of such 12 month period (or committed to be applied by the end of the 12 month period and applied within 180 days after the end of such 12 month period), at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to such Net Proceeds that have not been so applied, (2) in the event and on each occasion that any Borrower incurs, issues or obtains any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (other than solely by means of extending or renewing then existing Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness without resulting in any Net Proceeds), the Borrower shall, on the date on which such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is incurred, issued or obtained, prepay the applicable Refinanced Debt as set forth in Section 2.11(d)(ii) below in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness and (3) on each Excess Cash Payment Date the Borrower shall prepay the Obligations as set forth in Section 2.11(d)(i) below in an amount equal to the Applicable Excess Cash Flow Percentage of the Excess Cash Flow for the applicable fiscal year (but only if such amount exceeds $25,000,000 in the aggregate); provided that repayments of principal of Loans made as a voluntary prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(a) (other than with the proceeds of long-term Indebtedness)(but in the case of a voluntary prepayment of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans, only to the extent accompanied by a voluntary reduction to the Revolving Commitments in an amount equal to such prepayment) during the applicable fiscal year shall reduce on a dollar-for-dollar basis the amount of such mandatory repayment otherwise required on the applicable Excess Cash Payment Date pursuant to this clause (3).

(d) Subject to Sections 2.11(e) and 2.11(f) below and except as set forth in the applicable Incremental Amendment, Extension Amendment and Refinancing Amendment, (i) all such amounts pursuant to Sections 2.11(c)(1) and 2.11(c)(3) shall be applied to each Class of Term Loans on a pro rata basis and to the scheduled payments of each such Class as directed by Xxxxxx (and absent such direction, in direct order of maturity); provided that, if at the time that prepayment would be required pursuant to Sections 2.11(c)(1) and 2.11(c)(3), Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary is required to prepay or offer to redeem or repurchase any Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Other Applicable Indebtedness with such amounts, then Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary may apply such amounts on a pro rata basis (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and such Other Applicable Indebtedness at such time) to prepay the Term Loans and prepay, redeem or repurchase such Other Applicable Indebtedness; provided, further, that (A) any prepayment, redemption or repurchase of such Other Applicable Indebtedness shall be at par (or less than par), (B) the portion of such prepayment amount allocated to such Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount required to be allocated to such Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, (C) the amount of prepayment of the Term Loans that would otherwise have been required pursuant to this clause (d) shall be reduced accordingly and (D) to the extent the holders of such Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such Indebtedness prepaid, redeemed or repurchased, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with the terms hereof and (ii) all such amounts pursuant to Section 2.11(c)(2) shall be applied to prepay an aggregate principal amount of the applicable Refinanced Debt equal to the Net Proceeds of the applicable Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (and to the extent the applicable Refinanced Debt is not repaid in full, such Net Proceeds shall reduce the remaining scheduled principal repayments of such Refinanced Debt on a pro rata basis).

101

(e) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.11 to the contrary, with respect to any prepayment required pursuant to Section 2.11(c)(1), if at the time of such prepayment, the Restricted Subsidiary receiving the Net Proceeds (i) is prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable local law from repatriating such Net Proceeds to Parent or the Borrower, the portion of such Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.11(c)(1) but may be retained by the applicable Restricted Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to Parent or the Borrower, and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be effected and such repatriated Net Proceeds will be promptly applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(d) to the extent provided therein or (ii) cannot repatriate such funds to Parent or the Borrower without (in the good faith determination of Parent) the repatriation of such Net Proceeds (or a portion thereof) that would otherwise be required to be applied pursuant to Section 2.11(c)(1) resulting in material adverse tax consequences, the Net Proceeds (or portion thereof) so affected may be retained by the applicable Restricted Subsidiary (Parent and the Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Restricted Subsidiary to promptly use commercially reasonable efforts to take all actions within the reasonable control of Parent and the Borrower that are reasonably required to eliminate such tax effects) until such time as such material adverse tax consequences would not apply to the repatriation thereof, at which time the mandatory prepayments otherwise required by Section 2.11(c)(1) with respect to such Net Proceeds shall be made.

(f) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to Section 2.11(c)(1) or 2.11(c)(3) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Term Lender of the contents of any such prepayment notice and of such Term Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each relevant Tranche of the Term Loans). Any Term Lender (a “Declining Term Lender,” and any Term Lender which is not a Declining Term Lender, an “Accepting Term Lender”) may elect, by delivering written notice to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day after the date of such Term Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment, that the full amount of any mandatory prepayment otherwise required to be made with respect to the Term Loans held by such Term Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(c)(1) or 2.11(c)(3) not be made (the aggregate amount of such prepayments declined by the Declining Term Lenders, the “Declined Prepayment Amount”). If a Term Lender fails to deliver notice setting forth such rejection of a prepayment to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory prepayment of Term Loans. In the event that the Declined Prepayment Amount related to a prepayment under Section 2.11(c)(1) is greater than $0, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Accepting Term Lender of the amount of such Declined Prepayment Amount and of

102

any such Accepting Term Lender’s ratable portion of such Declined Prepayment Amount (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage in respect of the and Term Loans (excluding the Applicable Percentage of Declining Term Lenders), as applicable). In the event that the Declined Prepayment Amount related to a prepayment under Section 2.11(c)(3) is greater than $0, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Accepting Term Lender of the amount of such Declined Prepayment Amount and of any such Accepting Term Lender’s ratable portion of such Declined Prepayment Amount (based on such Lender’s Applicable Percentage in respect of the Term Loans (excluding the Applicable Percentage of Declining Term Lenders), as applicable). Any such Accepting Term Lender may elect, by delivering, no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) one (1) Business Day after the date of such Accepting Term Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such additional prepayment, a written notice, that such Accepting Term Lender’s ratable portion of such Declined Prepayment Amount not be applied to repay such Accepting Term Lender’s Term Loans, in which case the portion of such Declined Prepayment Amount which would otherwise have been applied to such Term Loans of the Declining Term Lenders shall instead be retained by the Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower may, at their option, apply any amounts retained in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence to prepay loans in accordance with Section 2.11(a) above.

Section 2.12 Fees. (a) The Borrower jointly and severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the daily amount of the Available Revolving Commitment of such Revolving Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which the last of the Revolving Commitments (or Extended Revolving Commitments) of such Revolving Lender terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the last of the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that any commitment fees accruing after the date on which such Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Term SOFR Revolving Loans on the average daily Dollar Amount of such Revolving Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which the last of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure and (ii) to the Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate per annum separately agreed upon by the Borrower and the Issuing Bank (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any Existing Letters of Credit) on the average daily Dollar Amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) attributable to Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the last of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s standard fees and commissions with respect to the issuance, amendment, cancellation, negotiation, transfer,

103

presentment or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Unless otherwise specified above, participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the third (3^rd) Business Day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the last of the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the such Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c) The Borrower Representative agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times agreed in the Administrative Agent Fee Letter.

(d) If any Repricing Event occurs prior to the date occurring sixth months after the Effective Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each Lender with Initial Term Loans that are subject to such Repricing Event (including any Lender which is replaced pursuant to Section 9.02(e) as a result of its refusal to consent to an amendment giving rise to such Repricing Event), a fee in an amount equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans subject to such Repricing Event. Such fees shall be earned, due and payable upon the date of the occurrence of the respective Repricing Event.

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

Section 2.13 Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. The Loans comprising each Borrowing of Canadian Prime Rate Loans shall bear interest at the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) The Loans comprising each Term SOFR Borrowing shall bear interest at Term SOFR for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(c) The Loans comprising each Term XXXXX Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted Term XXXXX Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any

104

Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.13 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans (or the Canadian Prime Rate, in the case of Canadian Prime Rate Loans) as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.13.

(e) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the applicable Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section 2.13 shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan of any Class (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan or Canadian Prime Rate Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(f) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (i) interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate, as well as all Canadian Dollar denominated Loans, shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year) and (ii) for Borrowings denominated in Pounds Sterling, interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days, and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Canadian Prime Rate or Relevant Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Borrower shall not be permitted to request a Term XXXXX Loan at any time a Default has occurred and is continuing (and upon such event, any outstanding Term XXXXX Loans shall be converted into Canadian Prime Rate Loans on the maturity thereof).

Section 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section 2.14, if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Term SOFR or the Adjusted Term XXXXX Rate, as applicable (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate or the Term XXXXX Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that Term SOFR or the Adjusted Term XXXXX Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period;

105

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower Representative and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Representative and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.08 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term SOFR Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term SOFR Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for a Daily Simple SOFR Borrowing, or, if Daily Simple SOFR is unavailable, an ABR Borrowing and (B) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term XXXXX Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term XXXXX Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.14(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Representative and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower Representative delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.07 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03, (1)(A) any Term SOFR Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Daily Simple SOFR Borrowing, or, if Daily Simple SOFR is unavailable, an ABR Borrowing, and (B) any Term XXXXX Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Canadian Prime Rate Borrowing, in each case, on such day.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

106

(c) In connection with the implementation, administration or adoption of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(d) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (e) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.14, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.14.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(f) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the applicable Borrower may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, (x) such Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for (1) a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Daily Simple SOFR Loans, or, if Daily Simple SOFR is unavailable, ABR Loans, (2) a Term XXXXX Borrowing into

107

a request of or conversion to Canadian Prime Rate Loans and (y) any Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in a Foreign Currency other than Canadian Dollars shall be ineffective. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR or the Canadian Prime Rate, as applicable, based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR or the Canadian Prime Rate, as applicable. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to the Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, then (i) if such Term Benchmark Loan is denominated in Dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Daily Simple SOFR Loan denominated in Dollars or, if Daily Simple SOFR is unavailable, an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars, in each case, on such day, (ii) if such Term Benchmark Loan is denominated in Canadian Dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Term Benchmark Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Canadian Prime Rate Loan on such day and (iii) if such Term Benchmark Loan is denominated in any Foreign Currency other than Canadian Dollars, then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (B) be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and (subject to the remainder of this subclause (B)) shall constitute, a Daily Simple SOFR Loan, or, if Daily Simple SOFR is unavailable, an ABR Loan, in each case denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount of such Foreign Currency) on such day (it being understood and agreed that if the Borrower does not so prepay such Loan on such day by 12:00 noon, local time, the Administrative Agent is authorized to effect such conversion of such Term Benchmark Loan into a Daily Simple SOFR Loan or ABR Loan, as applicable, denominated in Dollars), and, in the case of such subclause (B), upon any subsequent implementation of a Benchmark Replacement in respect of such Foreign Currency pursuant to this Section 2.14, such Daily Simple SOFR Loan or ABR Loan, as applicable, denominated in Dollars shall then be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in such original Foreign Currency on the day of such implementation, giving effect to such Benchmark Replacement in respect of such Foreign Currency.

Section 2.15 Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender or the Issuing Bank;

(ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the applicable offshore interbank market for the applicable Agreed Currency any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

108

(iii) subject the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Other Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) with respect to this Agreement, or any Loan made by it or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent or such Lender of making or maintaining, continuing or converting any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency into a Borrowing denominated in any other Agreed Currency) or to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency into a Borrowing denominated in any other Agreed Currency) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder, whether of principal, interest or otherwise (including, without limitation, pursuant to any conversion of any Borrowing denominated in an Agreed Currency into a Borrowing denominated in any other Agreed Currency), then the applicable Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

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

(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis and calculation of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the

109

Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the applicable Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, a Lender shall not be entitled to any compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 unless such Lender certifies in its reasonable good faith determination that it is imposing such charges or requesting such compensation from borrowers (similarly situated to the Borrower hereunder) under comparable syndicated credit facilities as a matter of general practice and policy pursuant to a certificate delivered to the applicable Borrower.

Section 2.16 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11), (b) the conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Benchmark Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(a) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by a Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the actual loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16, and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations used by such Lender to determine such amount or amounts, shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 for any amounts under this Section 2.16 incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower Representative of such amount and of such Xxxxxx’s intention to claim compensation therefor.

Section 2.17 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or Guarantors, as the case may be, hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes except as required by applicable law; provided that if any Borrower, Guarantor or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall be required (as determined in the good faith discretion of the payor) to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower or Guarantors shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower, Guarantor, or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall make such deductions, and (iii) the applicable Borrower, Guarantor, or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

110

(b) Without duplication of other amounts payable by the Borrower or Guarantors under Section 2.17(a), the Borrower or Guarantors, as the case may be, shall timely pay any Other Taxes imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or, at the option of a Recipient, timely reimburse such Recipient for any Other Taxes paid.

(c) The Borrower and Guarantors shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by such Recipient on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of a Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for and calculation of such payment or liability delivered to the applicable Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, by a Lender or the Issuing Bank, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

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

(e) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower or Guarantors and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or Guarantors or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or Guarantors or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or Guarantors or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or Guarantors or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or Guarantors or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such 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 2.17(f), (g) and (k) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

111

(f) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.17(e), each Lender and Administrative Agent that is a “United States person,” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, shall deliver on or about the date on which such Lender or Administrative Agent becomes a Lender or Administrative Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent (as applicable), a properly completed and duly executed copy of United States Internal Revenue Form W-9 or any successor form, certifying that such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, is exempt from United States backup withholding Tax on payments made hereunder.

(g) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.17(e), each Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(ii) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10-percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

(iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W 8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner.

112

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

(i) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it (on a standalone or an affiliated group basis) has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, or with respect to which any Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to the applicable Borrower or Guarantor (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower or Guarantor under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the applicable Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Xxxxxx, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower or Guarantor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (i), in no event will the Administrative Agent or a Lender be required to pay any amount to any Borrower or Guarantor pursuant to this paragraph (i) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or Lender would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph (i) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person.

(j) Each Lender shall severally indemnify (A) the Administrative Agent for (i) any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower and each Guarantor to do so) and (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Xxxxxx’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, and (B) any Borrower or Guarantor, or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, for any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are paid or payable by any Borrower or Guarantor, or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, 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. The indemnity under this Section 2.17(j) shall be paid within ten (10) days after the Administrative Agent or a Borrower or Guarantor (as applicable) delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the

113

Administrative Agent or such Borrower or Guarantor (as applicable). Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (j).

(k) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to deduction or withholding for any Tax imposed pursuant to FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the applicable Borrower or Guarantor and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower or Guarantor or the 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 such Borrower or Guarantor or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or Guarantor and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. If a Lender confirms to a Borrower or Guarantor or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this clause (k) that it is entitled to receive payments free from any deduction or withholding for any Tax imposed pursuant to FATCA, and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not or has ceased to be so entitled, that Lender shall notify that other party reasonably promptly. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(k), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Effective Date.

(l) EACH FOREIGN LENDER LISTED ON SCHEDULE 2.01 REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT, AS OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE, ASSUMING COMPLIANCE WITH PROCEDURAL FORMALITIES, AMOUNTS PAYABLE TO SUCH FOREIGN LENDER PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT ARE EXEMPT FROM U.S. FEDERAL WITHHOLDING TAX. EACH FOREIGN LENDER WHICH BECOMES A LENDER AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE HEREBY REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT, ON THE DATE SUCH FOREIGN LENDER FIRST BECAME A LENDER HEREUNDER, ASSUMING COMPLIANCE WITH PROCEDURAL FORMALITIES, AMOUNTS PAYABLE TO SUCH FOREIGN LENDER PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT ARE EXEMPT FROM U. S. FEDERAL WITHHOLDING TAX OR WOULD BE SO EXEMPT BUT FOR ONE OR MORE CHANGES IN LAW WHICH HAVE OCCURRED AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE.

(m) Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 2.18 Payments Generally; Allocations of Proceeds; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to (i) in the case of payments denominated in

114

Dollars, 12:00 noon, New York City time and (ii) in the case of payments denominated in a Foreign Currency, 12:00 noon, Local Time, in the city of the Administrative Agent’s Foreign Currency Payment Office for such currency, in each case on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made (i) in the same currency in which the applicable Credit Event was made (or where such currency has been converted to euro, in euro) and (ii) to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 0000 Xxxx Xxx, 00xx Xxxxx Xxxxxx, XX 00000 or such other office as the Administrative Agent may hereafter designate in writing as such to the other parties hereto, or, in the case of a Credit Event denominated in a Foreign Currency, the Administrative Agent’s Foreign Currency Payment Office for such currency, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments denominated in the same currency received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.18, if, after the making of any Credit Event in any Foreign Currency, currency control or exchange regulations are imposed in the country which issues such currency with the result that the type of currency in which the Credit Event was made (the “Original Currency”) no longer exists or the respective Borrower is not able to make payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders in such Original Currency, then all payments to be made by the respective Borrower hereunder in such currency shall instead be made when due in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Amount (as of the date of repayment) of such payment due, it being the intention of the parties hereto that the respective Borrower takes all risks of the imposition of any such currency control or exchange regulations.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, if (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Collateral Agent is taking action at any time to enforce rights in respect of any Collateral pursuant to the Loan Documents or applicable law, (iii) any distribution is made to or proceeds are received by any Secured Party on account of any Collateral during such Event of Default or in connection with any enforcement in respect thereof or in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of the Loan Parties (including in the form of any adequate protection payments) or (iv) any payment is received by any Secured Party pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement or any other Approved Intercreditor Agreement with respect to any Collateral, then the proceeds of any sale, collection or other liquidation of the Collateral by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party (or at the direction or with the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable) and the proceeds of any distribution or payment shall be applied as follows:

(i) while the Intercreditor Agreement is in effect, subject to and as set forth therein; and

(ii) any amounts received pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement or otherwise shall be applied to the Secured Obligations in the following order:

115

first, to pay that portion of the Secured Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expense reimbursements or other amounts (but not principal or interest) then due to the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent (in their respective capacities as such),

second, to pay that portion of Revolving Facility Obligations constituting fees (including commitment, fronting and participation fees), indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the Revolving Lenders, Swingline Lenders or Issuing Banks (in their respective capacities as such) ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this second clause,

third, to pay that portion of Revolving Facility Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest (including post-petition interest, whether or not an allowed claim in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) on the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans then due to the Revolving Lenders or Swingline Lenders (in their respective capacities as such) ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this third clause,

fourth, (w) to repay that portion of Revolving Secured Obligations constituting unpaid principal on the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements, (x) to Cash Collateralize all undrawn Letters of Credit in an amount equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the aggregate undrawn face amount of such outstanding Letters of Credit, (y) to pay that portion of Revolving Secured Obligations constituting unpaid Banking Services Obligations and (z) to pay that portion of Revolving Secured Obligations constituting unpaid Swap Obligations, in each case, then due and payable to the Secured Parties ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this fourth clause,

fifth, to pay in full all other outstanding Revolving Secured Obligations then due to the Secured Parties ratably among them in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents,

seventh, to pay that portion of Term Loan Facility Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid interest (including post-petition interest, whether or not an allowed claim in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) on the Term Loans then due to the Term Lenders (in their capacities as such) ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this seventh clause,

116

eighth, (x) to repay that portion of Term Loan Secured Obligations constituting unpaid principal on the Term Loans, (y) to pay that portion of Term Loan Secured Obligations constituting unpaid Banking Services Obligations and (z) to pay that portion of Term Loan Secured Obligations constituting unpaid Swap Obligations, in each case, then due and payable to the Secured Parties ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this eighth clause,

ninth, to pay in full all other outstanding Term Loan Secured Obligations then due to the Secured Parties ratably among them in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and

last, the balance, if any, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by law.

Subject to Section 2.6, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause fourth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Secured Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above and, if no Secured Obligations remain outstanding, to the Borrower.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) amounts received from the Borrower or any Guarantor that is not a ECP shall not be applied to the obligations that are Excluded Swap Obligations (it being understood, that in the event that any amount is applied to Secured Obligations other than Excluded Swap Obligations as a result of this clause (a), to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrative Agent shall make such adjustments as it determines are appropriate to distributions pursuant to clauses fourth or eighth above (as applicable) from amounts received from ECP to ensure, as nearly as possible, that the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to obligations described in clauses fourth or eighth above (as applicable) by the holders of any Excluded Swap Obligations are the same as the proportional aggregate recoveries with respect to other obligations pursuant to clauses fourth or eighth above (as applicable)) and (b) Banking Services Obligations and Swap Obligations shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable holder of such obligations.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the respective Borrower, or unless a Default is in existence, none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Term Benchmark Loan of a Class, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period or maturity date (as applicable) applicable to any such Term Benchmark Loan or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans (as applicable) of the same Class and, in any event, the Borrower shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.16. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such received proceeds and payments to any portion of the Secured Obligations.

(c) At the election of the Administrative Agent, all payments of principal, interest, LC Disbursements, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses (including, without limitation, all reimbursement for fees and expenses pursuant to Section 9.03), and other sums due and payable under the Loan Documents, may be paid from the proceeds of Borrowings made hereunder pursuant to Section 2.02.

117

(d) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement, any Incremental Amendment, Extension Amendment or Refinancing Amendment or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than, except as provided in Sections 2.24, 9.04(g) or 9.04(k), to Parent or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply) and (iii) nothing in this Section 2.18(d) shall be construed to limit the applicability of Section 2.18(b) in the circumstances where Section 2.18(b) is applicable in accordance with its terms. The Borrower consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent they may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower right of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the relevant Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the relevant Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation (including without limitation the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of Loans denominated in a Foreign Currency).

118

(f) Subject to Section 2.22, if any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(c), 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(e) or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section 2.18 until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section 2.18; in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

(g) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Section 2.18 is intended to constitute and shall be deemed to constitute a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code and is intended to be and shall be interpreted to be enforceable to the maximum extent permitted pursuant to applicable nonbankruptcy law. Amounts applied pursuant to Section 2.18(b) are to be applied, for the avoidance of doubt, in the order required by such clause until the payment in full in cash of the applicable Secured Obligations referred to in the applicable clause.

(h) If any Secured Party collects or receives any amounts received on account of the Secured Obligations of which it is not entitled under Section 2.18(b), such Secured Party shall hold the same in trust for the applicable Secured Parties entitled thereto and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Secured Parties, to be applied in accordance with Section 2.18(b) hereof, in each case until the prior payment in full of cash of the applicable Secured Obligations due and owing to Secured Parties in accordance with Section 2.18(b).

Section 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or if any Lender delivers a notice pursuant to Section 2.26, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment would (i) eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby jointly and severally agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or if any Lender delivers a notice pursuant to Section 2.26, or (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations (other than its existing rights to payment pursuant to Sections 2.15 and 2.17) under the Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender

119

accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including any amounts under Section 2.16), from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or each applicable Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments and (iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

Section 2.20 Incremental Credit Extensions. (a) Any Borrower, may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders) from time to time after the Effective Date, request Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments, as applicable, in an aggregate amount not to exceed (when aggregated with any Incremental Equivalent Debt) the Incremental Amount from one or more Incremental Term Lenders and/or Incremental Revolving Lenders (which, in each case, may include any existing Lender, but shall be required to be Persons which would qualify as assignees of a Lender in accordance with Section 9.04) willing to provide such Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in their own discretion. Each notice provided pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $10,000,000 and a minimum amount of $25,000,000 or equal to the remaining Incremental Amount), (ii) the date on which such Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments are requested to become effective, (iii) in the case of Incremental Revolving Commitments, whether such Incremental Revolving Commitments are to constitute an increase to the Dollar Tranche Commitments or Multicurrency Tranche Commitments; provided that, where multiple Classes of Revolving Commitments exist with different Maturity Dates, any Incremental Revolving Commitments shall constitute and increase to the Class of Revolving Commitments with the Latest Maturity Date; provided, further that the aggregate amount of all Incremental Revolving Commitments established hereunder shall not exceed $100,000,000 and (iv) in the case of Incremental Term Loan Commitments, whether such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are commitments to make term loans with the same interest rates, amortization, maturity and other terms as the Initial Term Loans made on the Effective Date or commitments to make term loans with interest rates and/or amortization and/or maturity and/or other terms different from the Initial Term Loans (“Other Term Loans”).

(b) [reserved].

120

(c) The applicable Borrower and each Incremental Term Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Amendment and such customary other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of such Incremental Term Lender. Each Incremental Amendment providing for Incremental Term Loans shall specify the terms of the applicable Incremental Term Loans; provided that (i) except as to pricing, amortization, mandatory prepayments and final maturity date (which shall, subject to clause (ii), (iii) and (iv) of this proviso, be determined by such Borrower and the Incremental Term Lenders in their sole discretion), the Other Term Loans shall have (x) the same terms as the Initial Term Loans or (y) such other terms as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ii) the final maturity date of any Other Term Loan shall be no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date with respect to then-existing Term Loans (except for Other Term Loans incurred pursuant to the Inside Maturity Basket), (iii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Other Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Class of Term Loans with the Latest Maturity Date (except for Other Term Loans incurred pursuant to the Inside Maturity Basket), (iv) the prepayment provisions of any Other Term Loans shall not be more favorable than the prepayment provisions applicable to the Initial Term Loans that will remain outstanding after giving effect to the incurrence of such Other Term Loans and use of proceeds thereof and (v) the Effective Yield of any Other Term Loans may exceed the Effective Yield then applicable to the Initial Term Loans; provided that the Effective Yield for the Initial Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary (without any further action by any party or any amendment hereto) so that the Effective Yield for such Initial Term Loans is not less than the Effective Yield of any such Other Term Loans minus 0.50%; provided, however that the foregoing proviso (x) shall only be effective until the date that is twelve months after the Effective Date, (y) shall not apply to any Other Term Loans or Incremental Equivalent Debt incurred in reliance on the Incremental Ratio Basket and (z) shall not apply to any Other Term Loans (or Incremental Equivalent Debt) with a final maturity date at least 24 months after the Maturity Date then applicable to the Initial Term Loans and a Weighted Average Life to Maturity longer by 24 months or more than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity then applicable to the Initial Term Loans. The Incremental Term Loans shall rank pari passu or junior in right of payment and of security with the Initial Term Loans and shall not be (x) secured by any property or assets of Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary other than the Collateral or (y) guaranteed by Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries other than the Guarantors; provided that, if such Other Term Loans rank junior in right of security with the Initial Term Loans, such Other Term Loans will be established as a separate Tranche from the Initial Term Loans. In the case of any junior lien Incremental Term Loans, such Indebtedness shall be subject to the terms of an Approved Intercreditor Agreement.

(d) The Borrower and each Incremental Revolving Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Amendment and such other customary documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Revolving Commitment of such Incremental Revolving Lender. Any Incremental Revolving Commitment established hereunder shall have terms identical to (and shall form part of) such Class of Revolving Commitments with the Latest Maturity Date existing on the Effective Date, it being understood that the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may make (without the consent of or notice to any other party) any amendment to reflect such increase in the Revolving Commitments.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Revolving Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.20 unless, subject to Section 1.04, at the time that any such Incremental Term Loan or Incremental Revolving Commitment is made (and after giving effect thereto), (A) no Event of

121

Default shall exist or would exist after giving effect thereto (including on a pro forma basis) and (B) the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than to the extent qualified by materiality or “Material Adverse Effect”, in which case, such representations and warranties shall be true and correct); provided that, in the event that the tranche of Incremental Term Loans is used to finance an acquisition or other Investment permitted by this Agreement and to the extent the Incremental Term Lenders participating in such tranche of Incremental Term Loans agree, the foregoing clause (B) shall be limited to customary “specified representations” and those representations included in the agreement related to such acquisition or other Investment that are material to the interests of the Lenders and only to the extent that Parent or its applicable Subsidiary has the right to terminate its obligations under such agreement as a result of a breach of such representations. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments evidenced thereby. Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent with the Borrower’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and furnished to the other parties hereto. Each Incremental Amendment shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent, together with such documents (including local law confirmations as to Collateral) and legal opinions substantially consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a Change in Law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion) as to such matters as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.

(f) The Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.20, including those required by the Incremental Term Loan Lenders or Incremental Revolving Lenders, as applicable (and not adverse to any existing Lender after giving effect to the Incremental Loans made pursuant to such amendment). The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loans for their general corporate purposes (including loans and other Investments in Parent and its Subsidiaries as permitted herein). Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Commitments may be made by any existing Lender (but no existing Lender will have any obligation to make or provide any portion of any Incremental Term Loan or Incremental Revolving Commitments) or by any other bank or other financial institution; provided that any bank or financial institution (including any new or existing Lenders) providing Incremental Revolving Commitments shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Borrower. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments, unless it so agrees.

(g) This Section 2.20 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or 9.02 to the contrary.

122

Section 2.21 Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from a Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main New York City office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, the applicable Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 2.18, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to such Borrower.

Section 2.22 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);

(b) the unused Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or the Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable, have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender affected thereby under Section 9.02;

(i) so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing: (1) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Dollar Tranche Lenders in accordance with their respective Dollar Tranche Percentages (after giving effect to the reallocation provisions of Section 2.05(d)) but only to the extent (A) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Dollar Tranche Lenders’ Dollar Tranche Commitments and (B) each non-Defaulting Lender’s Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure in respect of any Class does not exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Dollar

123

Tranche Commitment in respect of such Class; and (2) all or any part of the Dollar Tranche LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Dollar Tranche Lenders in accordance with their respective Dollar Tranche Percentages (after giving effect to the reallocation provisions of Section 2.06(k)) but only to the extent (A) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Dollar Tranche LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Dollar Tranche Lenders’ Dollar Tranche Commitments and (B) each non-Defaulting Lender’s Dollar Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure in respect of any Class does not exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Dollar Tranche Commitment in respect of such Class; and all or any part of the Multicurrency Tranche LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Multicurrency Tranche Lenders in accordance with their respective Multicurrency Tranche Percentages but only to the extent (E) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Multicurrency Tranche LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Multicurrency Tranche Lenders’ Multicurrency Tranche Commitments and (F) each non-Defaulting Lender’s Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure in respect of any Class does not exceed such non-Defaulting Lender’s Multicurrency Tranche Commitment in respect of such Class;

(ii) if the reallocations described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the respective Borrower shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Bank only the respective Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.06(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period (and to the extent) such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (ii) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and Section 2.12(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages (after giving effect to the reallocation provisions of Sections 2.05(d) and 2.06(k)); and

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and

124

(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.22(c), and participating interests in any such newly made Swingline Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.22(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event with respect to a Holding Company of any Lender shall occur following the Effective Date and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, reasonably satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Xxxxxx’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Dollar Tranche Revolving Loans of any Class (other than Swingline Loans) and/or Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Loans of any Class of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that, subject to Section 9.19, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Xxxxxx’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.23 Extensions of Loans and Commitments. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the applicable Borrower(s) to all Term Lenders of Term Loans with a like Maturity Date, all Incremental Term Lenders of Incremental Term Loans with a like Maturity Date, all Lenders of Other Term Loans with a like Maturity Date, all Lenders of Other Refinancing Term Loans with a like Maturity Date, all Incremental Revolving Lenders of Incremental Revolving Commitments with a like Maturity Date, all Revolving Lenders with Revolving Commitments with a like Maturity Date or all Lenders with Other Refinancing Revolving Commitments with a like Maturity Date, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Loans or the aggregate amount of the Commitments with the same Maturity Date, as the case may be, and using Dollar Amounts in the case of any amounts denominated in an Agreed Currency other than Dollars) and on the same terms to each such

125

(iii) [reserved];

(iv) except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to the succeeding clauses (v), (vi) and (vii), be determined by the applicable Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Term Loans of any Term Lender (an “Extending Term Lender”) extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall have the same terms as the Tranche of Term Loans subject to such Extension Offer;

(v) the final maturity date for any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the then Latest Maturity Date for Term Loans, respectively, hereunder and the amortization schedules applicable to Extended Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(b) for periods prior to the applicable Maturity Date may not be increased;

(vi) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans extended thereby;

(vii) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Offer;

(ix) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing,

(x) the Extension shall not become effective unless, on the proposed effective date of the Extension, (x) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent one or more legal opinions reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and a certificate of an authorized officer of each Loan Party dated the applicable date of the Extension and executed by an authorized officer of such Loan Party certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or

127

consenting to such Extension and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied (with all references in such Section 4.02 to any Credit Event being deemed to be references to the Extension on the applicable date of the Extension) and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated the applicable date of the Extension and executed by a Financial Officer of Parent;

(xi) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower; and

(xii) the Minimum Tranche Amount shall be satisfied unless waived by the Administrative Agent.

Subject to compliance with the terms of this Section 2.23, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereby consent to the Extensions and the other transactions contemplated by this Section 2.23 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.11 and 2.18) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.23.

(c) No consent of any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Term Loans of any Class, Other Refinancing Term Loans, Revolving Commitments of any Class, Incremental Revolving Commitments and/or Other Refinancing Revolving Commitments (or a portion thereof); provided that the consent of the Issuing Bank shall be required to effect an Extension of Revolving Commitments. All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Secured Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by all or a portion of the Collateral on a pari passu or junior lien basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that, if such Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments rank junior in right of security with any other Loans or Commitments hereunder, such Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments will be subject to the terms of an Approved Intercreditor Agreement. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement

128

and the other Loan Documents with the Borrower as may be necessary in order to establish new Tranches or sub-tranches in respect of Revolving Commitments or Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new Tranches or subtranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.23. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the then Latest Maturity Date so that such maturity date is extended to the then Latest Maturity Date (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent).

(d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least ten (10) days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.23.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender shall be required to accept an Extension Offer.

Section 2.24 Loan Repurchases. (a) (1) So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the applicable Borrower may purchase its outstanding Term Loans on a non-pro rata basis through open market purchases consisting solely of cash (subject to 9.04(k)) and (2) subject to the terms and conditions set forth or referred to below, the applicable Borrower may from time to time, at its discretion, conduct modified Dutch auctions in order to purchase its Term Loans of one or more Classes (as determined by the applicable Borrower) (each, a “Purchase Offer”), each such Purchase Offer to be managed exclusively by the Administrative Agent (or such other financial institution chosen by Xxxxxx and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) (in such capacity, the “Auction Manager”), so long as the following conditions are satisfied:

(i) each Purchase Offer shall be conducted in accordance with the procedures, terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.24 and the Auction Procedures;

(ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of the delivery of each notice of an auction and at the time of (and immediately after giving effect to) the purchase of any Term Loans in connection with any Purchase Offer;

(iii) the principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of each and all Classes of Term Loans that the applicable Borrower offers to purchase in any such Purchase Offer shall be no less than U.S. $25,000,000 (unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent) (across all such Classes);

(iv) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans of the applicable Class or Classes so purchased by the Borrower shall automatically be cancelled and retired by the Borrower on the settlement date of the relevant purchase (and may not be resold), and in no event shall the Borrower be entitled to any vote hereunder in connection with such Term Loans;

129

(v) no more than one Purchase Offer with respect to any Class may be ongoing at any one time;

(vi) any Purchase Offer with respect to any Class shall be offered to all Term Lenders holding Term Loans of such Class on a pro rata basis; and

(vii) no purchase of any Term Loans shall be made from the proceeds of any Revolving Loan or Swingline Loan.

(b) The applicable Borrower must terminate any Purchase Offer if it fails to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of purchase of Term Loans pursuant to such Purchase Offer. If the applicable Borrower commences any Purchase Offer (and all relevant requirements set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the commencement of such Purchase Offer have in fact been satisfied), and if at such time of commencement the applicable Borrower reasonably believes that all required conditions set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the consummation of such Purchase Offer shall be satisfied, then the applicable Borrower shall have no liability to any Term Lender for any termination of such Purchase Offer as a result of its failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of consummation of such Purchase Offer, and any such failure shall not result in any Event of Default hereunder. With respect to all purchases of Term Loans of any Class or Classes made by the applicable Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.24, (x) the applicable Borrower shall pay on the settlement date of each such purchase all accrued and unpaid interest (except to the extent otherwise set forth in the relevant offering documents), if any, on the purchased Term Loans of the applicable Class or Classes up to the settlement date of such purchase and (y) such purchases (and the payments made by the applicable Borrower and the cancellation of the purchased Loans, in each case in connection therewith) shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.11 hereof.

(c) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the Purchase Offers and the other transactions effected pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.24; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender shall have an obligation to participate in any such Purchase Offer. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the provisions of Sections 2.16, 2.18 and 9.04 will not apply to the purchases of Term Loans made pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.24. The Auction Manager acting in its capacity as such hereunder shall be entitled to the benefits of the provisions of Article VIII and Section 9.03 to the same extent as if each reference therein to the “Administrative Agent” were a reference to the Auction Manager, and the Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the Auction Manager as reasonably requested by the Auction Manager in order to enable it to perform its responsibilities and duties in connection with each Purchase Offer.

130

(d) This Section 2.24 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or 9.02 to the contrary.

Section 2.25 Refinancing Amendment. At any time after the Effective Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Refinancing Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of all or any portion of any Class of Loans or Commitments of such Borrower then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this Section 2.25 will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Refinancing Loans, Other Refinancing Commitments, Incremental Loans, Incremental Commitments, Extended Loans or Extended Commitments), in the form of Other Refinancing Loans or Other Refinancing Commitments in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (i) will rank pari passu or junior in right of payment and of security with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder; provided that, if such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness ranks junior in right of security with any other Loans or Commitments hereunder, such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness will be subject to the terms of an Approved Intercreditor Agreement, (ii) will have such pricing, premiums and optional prepayment or redemption terms as may be agreed by the applicable Borrower and the Lenders thereof; (iii) will have a maturity date no earlier than, and will have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity equal to or greater than, the Loans or Commitments being refinanced (other than such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under the Inside Maturity Basket) and (iv) will have terms and conditions that are substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) are no more favorable to the lenders or holders providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness than those applicable to the Loans or Commitments being refinanced; provided, further, that the terms and conditions applicable to such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed between the applicable Borrower and the Lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the date such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is issued, incurred or obtained. Any Other Refinancing Loans or Other Refinancing Commitments, as applicable, may participate on a pro rata basis or on a less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments hereunder, as specified in the applicable Refinancing Amendment. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements generally consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date pursuant to Sections 4.01(b) and (f) (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). Each Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.25 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $100,000,000. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Refinancing Loans and/or Other Refinancing Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.25. This Section 2.25 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or 9.02 to the contrary.

131

Section 2.26 Illegality. If any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to Term SOFR or Term XXXXX, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon Term SOFR or Term XXXXX, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, any Agreed Currency in the applicable offshore interbank market for the applicable currency then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Term Benchmark Loans in the affected Agreed Currency or Agreed Currencies or to convert ABR Loans to Term SOFR Loans or Term XXXXX Loans to Canadian Prime Rate Loans (as applicable) shall be suspended, (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining ABR Loans the interest rate of which is determined by reference to the clause (c) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate”, the interest rate for ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (c) of such definition and (iii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Canadian Prime Rate Loans the interest rate of which is determined by reference to clause (ii) of the definition of “Canadian Prime Rate”, the interest rate for Canadian Prime Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (ii) of such definition, in each case until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert (A) all Term SOFR Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans (the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the clause (c) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate”), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loan and/or (B) all Term XXXXX Loans of such Lender to Canadian Prime Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Canadian Prime Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (ii) of the definition of “Canadian Prime Rate”), on the maturity date therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term XXXXX Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term XXXXX Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Term SOFR component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon Term SOFR. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

132

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

In order to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to (A) enter into this Agreement on the Effective Date and (B) make each Loan or other extension of credit to be made hereunder on each applicable Credit Event, each of Parent and the Borrower represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and Lenders that, on the Effective Date and on the date of each other Credit Event, that each of the following statements are true and correct in all material respects:

Section 3.01 Organization; Powers; Subsidiaries. Each of Parent and its Material Subsidiaries is duly organized, incorporated (in the case of each Material Subsidiary incorporated under the laws of Ireland) and validly existing and (to the extent the concept is applicable in such jurisdiction) in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and (to the extent the concept is applicable in such jurisdiction) is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required. Schedule 3.01 hereto identifies each Subsidiary (other than Subsidiaries in respect of which Parent and its Subsidiaries own less than 50% of the Equity Interests thereof) as of the Effective Date, noting whether such Subsidiary is a Material Subsidiary, whether such Subsidiary is a Guarantor, whether such Subsidiary is an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, as the case may be, the percentage of issued and outstanding shares of each class of its capital stock or other equity interests owned by Parent and the Subsidiaries and, if such percentage is not 100% (excluding directors’ qualifying shares as required by law), a description of each class issued and outstanding. All of the outstanding shares of capital stock and other equity interests of each Material Subsidiary are validly issued and outstanding and fully paid and non-assessable and all such shares and other equity interests owned by Parent or any Material Subsidiary are owned, beneficially and of record, by Parent or such Material Subsidiary free and clear of all Liens, other than Liens created under the Loan Documents and Liens permitted by Section 6.02. As of the Effective Date, there are no outstanding commitments or other obligations of any Material Subsidiary to issue, and no options, warrants or other rights of any Person to acquire, any shares of any class of capital stock or other equity interests of any Material Subsidiary, except as expressly disclosed in the Reorganization Plan Documents.

Section 3.02 Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions are within each Loan Party’s corporate or other organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational actions and, if required, actions by shareholders, members or equity holders. The Loan Documents to which each Loan Party is a party have been duly executed and delivered by such Loan Party and constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

133

Section 3.03 Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The Transactions (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except as expressly contemplated by the Reorganization Plan Documents, and such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and except for filings or registrations necessary to perfect Liens created pursuant to the Loan Documents, (b) will not violate any applicable law or regulation (except such non-compliance that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect) or the charter, by-laws or other constitutional or organizational documents of Parent or any of its Material Subsidiaries or any order of any Governmental Authority, (c) will not violate in any material respect or result in a default under any indenture, material agreement or other material instrument binding upon Parent or any of its Material Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by Parent or any of its Material Subsidiaries, and (d) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any asset of Parent or any of its Material Subsidiaries, other than Liens created under the Loan Documents and under the Senior Secured Notes Indenture.

Section 3.04 Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change. (a) PLC has heretofore furnished to the Lenders the consolidated balance sheet and statements of income, stockholders equity and cash flows as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, reported on by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP. Such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of PLC and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of such dates and for such periods in accordance with GAAP.

(b) Since the Effective Date (as defined in the Reorganization Plan), there has been no material adverse change in the business, assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, of Parent and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

Section 3.05 Properties. (a) Each of Parent and its Material Subsidiaries has good title to, or (to the knowledge of Parent and the Borrower) valid leasehold interests in, all its real and personal property (excluding Intellectual Property, which is considered in Section 3.05(b)) material to its business, except for minor defects in title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or to utilize such properties for their intended purposes.

(b) Each of Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed (or otherwise has the rights) to use, all trademarks, tradenames, copyrights, patents and other Intellectual Property used in or necessary to its business, and the use thereof by Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person, except for any such infringements (or ownership or license issues) that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.06 Litigation, Environmental and Labor Matters. (a) Except as set forth in Schedule 3.06 hereto, the Reorganization Plan Documents and in PLC’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, there are no actions, suits, proceedings or investigations by or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority pending against or, to the knowledge of Parent, threatened against or affecting Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

134

(b) Except with respect to matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, neither Parent nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any permit, license or other approval required under any Environmental Law, (ii) is subject to any Environmental Liability or (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability.

(c) There are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pending or, to their knowledge, threatened that have resulted in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect. The hours worked by and payments made to employees of Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Federal, state, local or foreign law relating to such matters that has resulted in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect. All material payments due from Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or for which any claim may be made against Parent or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as liabilities on the books of Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary except to the extent that the failure to do so has not resulted in, and could not reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement under which Parent or any of its Material Subsidiaries is bound.

Section 3.07 Compliance with Laws and Agreements. Except as set forth in Schedule 3.07 hereto, each of Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries is in compliance with all laws, regulations and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it or its property and all indentures, agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.08 Investment Company Status. Neither Parent nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is an “investment company” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940.

Section 3.09 Taxes. Each of Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries has filed or caused to be filed all federal Tax returns and all other material Tax returns and reports required to have been filed and has paid or caused to be paid all Taxes required to have been paid by it, except (a) Taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which Parent or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, has set aside on its books adequate reserves or (b) to the extent that the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

135

Section 3.10 Benefit Plans.

(a) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, in each case, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Each Non-U.S. Plan has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all applicable laws, statutes, rules, regulations and orders and has been maintained, where required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities, except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. All contributions required to be made by Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary with respect to a Non-U.S. Plan have been timely made, except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither Parent nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has incurred any obligation in connection with the termination of, or withdrawal from, any Non-U.S. Plan, except as would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.11 Disclosure. As of the Effective Date, all written or formally presented information, including any Information Memorandum, other than any projections and information of a general economic or general industry nature, furnished by or on behalf of, Parent or any Subsidiary to the Administrative Agent, any of its Affiliates or any Lender pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, taken as a whole together with all other written information so delivered on or prior to the Effective Date, together with all information contained in regular or periodic reports filed by or on behalf of Parent or the Borrower with the SEC, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York or, in each case, any similar Governmental Authority on or prior to such date is complete and correct in all material respects and does not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made; provided that, with respect to forecasts or projected financial information, Parent and the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by it to be reasonable at the time so furnished (it being understood by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that any such projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of Parent or its Subsidiaries, that no assurances can be given that such projections will be realized and that actual results may differ materially from such projections).

The Administrative Agent shall not deliver such request with respect to any such real property located in the United States and its territories until (x) a date that is at least 45 Business Days after the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders (A) written notice of its intention to request delivery and execution of the applicable Mortgage and (B) (1) a completed standard “life of loan” flood hazard determination form and such other documents as any Lender may reasonably request to complete its flood insurance due diligence with respect to the applicable real property; (2) if the improvements to the applicable real property are determined to have special flood hazards by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, a notification to the applicable Loan Party (“Loan Party Notice”) and (if applicable) notification to the applicable Loan Party that flood insurance coverage under the National Flood Insurance Program (“NFIP”) is not available because the community where such real property is located does not participate in the NFIP; (3) documentation evidencing the applicable Loan Party’s receipt of the Loan Party Notice; and (4) if the Loan Party Notice is required to be given and, to the extent flood insurance is required by any applicable requirement of law or any Lender’s written regulatory or compliance procedures and flood insurance is available in the community in which such real property is located, evidence of a flood insurance policy in compliance with the Flood Insurance Laws (including without limitation, in an amount required under the Flood Insurance Laws) and (y) all Lenders shall have consented to the making of such request; provided that a Lender shall be deemed to have so consented unless such Lender objects to the execution and delivery of such Mortgage in writing to the Administrative Agent no later than 45 Business Days after delivery of the documentation and written notice described in clauses (x)(A) and (B) above.

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 6.01:

155

(4) guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating to, Indebtedness that are otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness will not be included in the determination of such amount of Indebtedness; provided that the incurrence of the Indebtedness represented by such guarantee or letter of credit, as the case may be, was incurred in compliance with this Section 6.01.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, and the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of (i) any time any of the Priority Revolving Credit Obligations remains outstanding, the Required Revolving Lenders and (ii) any time after the Discharge of the Priority Revolving Credit Obligations, the Required Lenders, exercise any rights and remedies provided to the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the UCC, in each case, subject to and in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any “Default” under this Section 7.01 will not constitute an “Event of Default” until the Loan Parties do not cure such “Default” within the time period (if any) specified in the applicable clauses of this Section 7.01 after receipt of any required notice (if any) provided for therein to the extent such clauses of Section 7.01 provide for such cure periods or required notice; provided that, the Administrative Agent shall not be entitled to provide such notice, take any enforcement action and/or seek remedies in respect of a Default under this Section 7.01 for actions taken and reported by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to a notice of Default provided by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent as of the date that is two years after delivery of such notice of Default and no Default or Event of Default can occur as a result thereof; provided further that, such two year limitation shall not apply if (i) the Administrative Agent has commenced (or been directed to commence) any remedial action in respect of any such Event of Default or has been stayed from so commencing by operation law or (ii) any Loan Party had actual knowledge of such Default or Event of Default and failed to notify to Administrative Agent as required hereby.

Section 7.02 Right to Cure.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.01, but subject to Sections 7.02(b) and (c), for the purpose of determining whether an Event of Default under the Financial Covenant has occurred, Parent may on one or more occasions designate any portion of the Net Proceeds from any sale or issuance of any Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Equity Interests) of Parent (or from any other contribution to capital or sale or issuance of any other Equity Interests on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) (the “Cure Amount”) as an increase to Consolidated EBITDA of Parent for the applicable fiscal quarter; provided that

174

(i) such amounts to be designated are actually received by Parent (i) on and after the first Business Day of the applicable fiscal quarter and (ii) on and prior to the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered with respect to such applicable fiscal quarter (the “Cure Expiration Date”),

(ii) such amounts to be designated do not exceed the maximum aggregate amount necessary to cure any Event of Default under the Financial Covenant as of such date and

(iii) Parent will have provided notice to the Administrative Agent on the date such amounts are designated as a “Cure Amount” (it being understood that to the extent such notice is provided in advance of delivery of a Compliance Certificate for the applicable period, the amount of such Net Proceeds that is designated as the Cure Amount may be lower than specified in such notice to the extent that the amount necessary to cure any Event of Default under the Financial Covenant is less than the full amount of such originally designated amount).

The Cure Amount used to calculate Consolidated EBITDA for any fiscal quarter will be used and included when calculating Consolidated EBITDA for each Reference Period that includes such fiscal quarter. The parties hereby acknowledge that this Section 7.02(a) may not be relied on for purposes of calculating any financial ratios other than as applicable to the Financial Covenant (and may not be included for purposes of determining pricing, mandatory prepayments and the availability or amount permitted pursuant to any covenant under Article VI) and may not result in any adjustment to any amounts (including the amount of Indebtedness) or increase in cash with respect to the fiscal quarter with respect to which such Cure Amount was received other than the amount of the Consolidated EBITDA referred to in the immediately preceding sentence (but for the avoidance of doubt may be applied to prepay Indebtedness in a subsequent fiscal quarter). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 7.01, (A) upon designation of the Cure Amount by Parent in an amount necessary to cure any Event of Default under the Financial Covenant, the Financial Covenant will be deemed satisfied and complied with as of the end of the relevant fiscal quarter with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply with the Financial Covenant and no Event of Default under the Financial Covenant (and any other Default as a result thereof) will be deemed to have occurred for purposes of the Loan Documents, (B) from and after the date that Parent delivers a written notices to the Administrative Agent that it intends to exercise its cure right under this Section 7.02 neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender may exercise any rights or remedies under Section 7.01 (or under any other Loan Document) on the basis of any actual or purported Event of Default under the Financial Covenant (and any other Default as a result thereof) until and unless the Cure Expiration Date has occurred without the Cure Amount having been designated and (C) the Loan Parties shall not be able to obtain any Borrowing hereunder until receipt by the Administrative Agent of the notice described in Section 7.02(a)(iii) from Parent.

(b) In each period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, there shall be no more than two (2) fiscal quarters in which the cure right set forth in Section 7.02(a) is exercised.

175

(c) There shall be no more than five (5) fiscal quarters in which the cure rights set forth in Section 7.02(a) are exercised during the term of this Agreement; provided that, so long as the Revolving Commitments incurred on the Effective Date have matured or been terminated, there may be an additional fiscal quarter after the Maturity Date applicable to such Revolving Commitments in which the cure rights set forth in this Section 7.02 are exercised during the term of any other Revolving Commitments.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent

Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Bank USA as its administrative agent and authorizes Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Bank USA to take such actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Bank USA hereby accepts such appointment.

The banks serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such banks and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with Parent or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if they were not an Agent hereunder.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by any bank serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 or elsewhere in the Loan Documents, including without limitation the Required Revolving Lenders pursuant hereto and pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by Parent or a Lender, and no Administrative Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements

176

or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Parent or the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise their rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the respective Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as an Agent.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Any such resignation by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall also constitute its resignation as an Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, as applicable, in which case the resigning Administrative Agent (x) shall not be required to issue any further Letters of Credit or make any additional Swingline Loans hereunder and (y) shall maintain all of its rights as Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it, or Swingline Loans made by it, prior to the date of such resignation. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders and the Required Revolving Lenders shall have the right (with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (h), (i) or (j) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is continuing) to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and the Required Revolving Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

177

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

None of the Lenders, if any, identified in this Agreement as a Lead Arranger shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of such Lenders shall have or be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender hereby makes the same acknowledgments with respect to the relevant Lenders in their capacity as a Lead Arranger as it makes with respect to the Administrative Agent in the preceding paragraph.

The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in case of the Administrative Agent) authorized to act for, any other Lender. The Administrative Agent shall have the exclusive right on behalf of the Lenders to enforce the payment of the principal of and interest on any Loan after the date such principal or interest has become due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Each of the Administrative Agent, Xxxxxxx and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Bank USA as its collateral agent and authorizes Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Bank USA to take such actions on its behalf, including execution of the Collateral Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Bank USA hereby accepts such appointment.

In its capacity, the Collateral Agent is “representative” of the Secured Parties within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the New York UCC. Each Lender authorizes the Collateral Agent to (i) enter into each of the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and to take all action contemplated by such documents, (ii) act as collateral agent for each Secured Party for purposes of the acquiring, perfection, holding and enforcing of all Liens created by such agreements (together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto) and all other purposes stated therein and be irrevocably authorized to enter into the Loan Documents in its capacity as Collateral Agent and to take the action and to exercise the rights that are expressly or by implication delegated to it by a Loan Document and any other action or rights that are reasonably incidental thereto, (iii) take such other action as is necessary or desirable to maintain the perfection and priority of the Liens created or purported to be created by the Loan Documents, (iv) except as may be otherwise specified in any Loan Document, exercise all remedies given to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral, whether under the Loan Documents, applicable law or otherwise.

178

In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties. The Lenders hereby authorize the Collateral Agent to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral as described in Section 9.13 or the US Security Agreement and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to provide confirmation of such authorization if requested by the Collateral Agent.

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and any Approved Intercreditor Agreement (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, and extensions, restructuring, renewals, replacements of, such agreements) in connection with the incurrence by any Loan Party of any Permitted First Lien Indebtedness, Permitted Junior Secured Refinancing Debt, Permitted Pari Passu Secured Refinancing Debt or Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness with respect thereto, or any other Indebtedness permitted by the terms of this Agreement to be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu or junior priority secured basis, in each case in order to permit such Indebtedness to be secured by a valid, perfected Lien (with such priority as may be designated by such Loan Party to the extent such priority is permitted by the Loan Documents), and the parties hereto acknowledge that the Intercreditor Agreement and each Approved Intercreditor Agreement is (if entered into) binding upon them. Each Lender (a) understands, acknowledges and agrees that Liens may be created on the Collateral pursuant to the documentation relating to any Indebtedness incurred as permitted by this Agreement which is (in accordance with the terms hereof) to be secured thereby, on a pari passu, priority or junior, secured basis to the Liens securing the Secured Obligations, which Liens securing any such other Indebtedness shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Intercreditor Agreement and each Approved Intercreditor Agreement executed and delivered as required hereby, (b) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and any Approved Intercreditor Agreement (if entered into) and (c) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and each Approved Intercreditor Agreement (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, such agreements) in connection with the incurrence by any Loan Party of any secured Indebtedness as contemplated above, in order to permit such Indebtedness to be secured by a valid, perfected Lien (with such priority as may be designated by the Borrower or such Loan Party, to the extent such priority is permitted by the Loan Documents), and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations to the provisions thereof.

Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender or Issuing Bank that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender or Issuing Bank from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender or Issuing Bank (whether or not known to such Lender or Issuing Bank), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payment received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. Any notice from the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Issuing Bank under this paragraph shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

The Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agree that in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all of the rights of such Lender or Issuing Bank with respect to such amount.

Each party’s obligations under this paragraph and the previous three paragraphs of this Article VIII shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 9.02 Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Except as provided in Section 2.20 with respect to an Incremental Amendment, Section 2.23 with respect to an Extension Amendment and Section 2.25 with respect to a Refinancing Amendment, and except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 9.19, neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders (other than as expressly provided below) or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders (other than as expressly provided below); provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase or reinstate the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided that (x) any amendment to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for purposes of this clause (ii) even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or any LC Disbursement or to reduce any fee payable hereunder and (y) only the consent of the Required Lenders (or, with respect to any default rate payable in respect of the Revolving Facility, Majority in Interest of Revolving Lenders, shall be necessary to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the default rate) shall be necessary to reduce or waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest or fees at the applicable default rate set forth in Section 2.13(d), (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement (other than any reduction of the amount of, or any extension of the payment date for, the mandatory prepayments required under Section 2.11, in each case which shall only require the approval of the Required Lenders), or any interest thereon (other than interest payable at the applicable default rate of interest set forth in Section 2.13(d)), or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled Maturity Date or scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.18(b) or (d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing or the priority or scope of the application of payments, distributions or proceeds required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (v) change the application of payments, distributions or proceeds with respect to the Revolving Secured Obligations set forth in Section 2.18(b), in Section 2.01 of the Intercreditor Agreement or in any other Approved Intercreditor Agreement, in each

183

case, without the written consent of each Revolving Lender; provided, however, that the amendments, waivers and other modifications described in this clause (v) shall not require the consent of any Lenders other than each Revolving Lender, (vi) change any provision in the Intercreditor Agreement or in any other Approved Intercreditor Agreement that would alter definition of “Controlling Collateral Agent” (as defined therein) or similar such term or change any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that would alter the right of the Required Revolving Lenders to direct the exercise of rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (vii) change any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 or the definitions of “Required Lenders” or “Majority in Interest” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (it being understood that, solely with the consent of the parties prescribed by Section 2.20 to be parties to an Incremental Amendment, Incremental Term Loans may be included in the determination of Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Term Loans are included on the Effective Date), (viii) change the definition of “Required Revolving Lenders” without the written consent of each Revolving Lender; provided, however, that the amendments, waivers and other modifications described in this clause (viii) shall not require the consent of any Lenders other than each Revolving Lender, (ix) release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty without the written consent of each Lender, (x) except as provided in Section 9.13 or in any Collateral Document in each case as in effect on the Effective Date, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender, (xi) amend, waive or otherwise modify the Financial Covenant or any definition or calculation provisions related thereto (solely in respect of the use of such defined terms or calculation provisions in or in any determination with respect to the Financial Covenant) or waive any Default or Event of Default resulting from a failure to perform or observe the Financial Covenant without the written consent of the Required Revolving Lenders; provided, however, that the amendments, waivers and other modifications described in this clause (xi) shall not require the consent of any Lenders other than the Required Revolving Lenders, (xii) amend, waive or modify any provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to, or the remedies of, Lenders holding Loans of any Class differently than those holding Loans of any other Class without the written consent of Lenders representing a Majority in Interest of each adversely affected Class (and in the case of multiple Classes which are affected, Majority in Interest with respect to all such Classes shall consent together as one Class); provided, however, that the amendments, waivers and other modifications described in this clause (xii) shall not require the consent of any Lenders other than the Lenders holding the Majority in Interest with respect to any applicable Class, (xiii) modify or extend the maturity date of any Letter of Credit to a date that is later than the Maturity Date applicable to the Revolving Commitments, without the written consent of each Revolving Lender; provided, however, that the amendments, waivers and other modifications described in this clause (xiii) shall not require the consent of any Lenders other than each Revolving Lender, (xiv) amend, waive or modify any of the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document in a manner that subordinates any of the Obligations in right of payment, or the priority of the Liens securing any of the Obligations, to any other Indebtedness (other than any Indebtedness permitted to be senior to the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement as in effect on the Effective Date and any debtor-in-possession financings that does not roll-up or refinance any Indebtedness that is junior in priority from payments on account

184

of the Collateral proceeds or in right of security or payment to any of the Revolving Facility Obligations) without the written consent of each Lender or (xv) amend, waive or modify any provision of Section 2.11(b), Section 4.02, Section 6.04(w) or Section 9.13(a), amend, waive or modify any provision of Section 2.20 with respect to any Incremental Revolving Commitments or Incremental Revolving Loans, amend or modify the definition of “Material IP”, amend, waive or modify the last two sentences of Section 5.10, or amend, waive or modify any material right of the Revolving Lenders under the Intercreditor Agreement or under any other Approved Intercreditor Agreement, in each case with respect to this clause (xv), without the written consent of the Required Revolving Lenders; provided, further, that (i) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be and (ii) Section 9.04(f) may not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and any other Loan Document may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (x) to add one or more credit facilities (in addition to the Incremental Term Loans pursuant to an Incremental Amendment, Extended Loans pursuant to an Extension Amendment and any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment, which, in each case, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not require the consent of the Required Lenders) to this Agreement and to permit extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Revolving Loans, the Term Loans, the Incremental Loans, the Extended Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Lenders, and for purposes of the relevant provisions of Section 2.18(b).

(d) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender directly affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders or Lenders representing a Majority in Interest of any Class directly affected, as applicable, is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement; provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity (which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of clause (b) of Section 9.04, and (ii) the Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by the Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.15 and 2.17, (2) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement

185

under Section 2.16 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender and (3) any amounts owing to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(d). A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) if following the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent and any Loan Party shall have jointly identified an ambiguity, inconsistency, obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the applicable Loan Parties shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Documents if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof, (ii) guarantees, collateral security agreements, pledge agreements and related documents (if any) executed by the Loan Parties in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be amended, supplemented and/or waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of Parent or any Borrower without the input or need to obtain the consent of any other Lenders if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (x) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel, (y) to cure ambiguities, omissions or defects or (z) to cause such guarantees, collateral security agreements, pledge agreement or other documents to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (iii) the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may amend any provision of the Loan Documents to effect any technical, administrative or operational changes reasonably necessary to permit Borrowings in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars and Canadian Dollars, and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Documents if the same is not objected to in writing by the Multicurrency Tranche Lenders holding a majority of the outstanding Multicurrency Tranche Commitments and Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Credit Exposure as of such date within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any determination as to whether the Required Revolving Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable, have (A) consented (or not consented) to any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (B) directed or required the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, any Lender (other than (x) any Lender that is a regulated bank, (y) any Revolving Lender as of the Effective Date and (z) any Affiliate of the foregoing) or any of its Affiliates (other than Affiliates that (I) make independent investment decisions, (II) have customary information screens in place (that apply to the Borrower) and (III) have investment policies that are not directed by, and whose investment decisions are not influenced by, the holder or a common Affiliate acting in concert with the holder) that, as a result of its interest in any total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default swap or other derivative contract (other than any such total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default swap or other derivative contract entered into pursuant to bona fide market making activities), has a net short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments (each, a “Net Short Lender”) shall have no right to vote any of its Loans and Commitments and shall be deemed to have voted

186

its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Net Short Lenders. For purposes of determining whether a Lender has a “net short position” on any date of determination: (i) derivative contracts with respect to the Loans and Commitments and such contracts that are the functional equivalent thereof shall be counted at the notional amount thereof in Dollars, (ii) notional amounts in other currencies shall be converted to the dollar equivalent thereof by such Lender in a commercially reasonable manner consistent with generally accepted financial practices and based on the prevailing conversion rate (determined on a mid-market basis) on the date of determination, (iii) derivative contracts in respect of an index that includes any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties or any instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties shall not be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments, so long as (x) such index is not created, designed, administered or requested by such Lender and (y) the Borrower and other Loan Parties and any instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties, collectively, shall represent less than 5.0% of the components of such index, (iv) derivative transactions that are documented using either the 2014 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions or the 2003 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions (collectively, the “ISDA CDS Definitions”) shall be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments if such Lender is a protection buyer or the equivalent thereof for such derivative transaction and (x) the Loans or the Commitments are a “Reference Obligation” under the terms of such derivative transaction (whether specified by name in the related documentation, included as a “Standard Reference Obligation” on the most recent list published by Markit, if “Standard Reference Obligation” is specified as applicable in the relevant documentation or in any other manner), (y) the Loans or the Commitments would be a “Deliverable Obligation” under the terms of such derivative transaction or (z) any of Parent, the Borrower or the other Loan Parties (or their respective successors) is designated as a “Reference Entity” under the terms of such derivative transactions, and (v) credit derivative transactions or other derivatives transactions not documented using the ISDA CDS Definitions shall be deemed to create a short position with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments if such transactions are functionally equivalent to a transaction that offers the Lender protection in respect of the Loans or the Commitments, or as to the credit quality of any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties other than, in each case, as part of an index so long as (x) such index is not created, designed, administered or requested by such Lender and (y) the Borrower and other Loan Parties and any instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties, collectively, shall represent less than 5.0% of the components of such index. In connection with any such determination, each Lender (other than any Lender that is a regulated bank and any Revolving Lender as of the Effective Date) shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing that it is a Net Short Lender, or shall otherwise be deemed to have represented and warranted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not a Net Short Lender.

Section 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) Parent and the Borrower shall (and hereby jointly and severally agree to) pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, in connection with the syndication and distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet or through a service such as Intralinks) of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable and documented out-

187

of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel (other than in-house counsel) for the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including its rights under this Section 9.03, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit; provided, however, that in no event shall Parent or the Borrower be required to reimburse the Lenders for more than one counsel to the Administrative Agent (and up to one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and regulatory counsel) and one counsel for all of the other Lenders (and up to one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction and regulatory counsel), unless a Lender or its counsel determines that it would create actual or potential conflicts of interest to not have individual counsel, in which case each Lender may have its own counsel which shall be reimbursed in accordance with the foregoing.

(b) Except in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes otherwise covered by Section 2.17(c), Parent and the Borrower shall, and jointly and severally agree to, indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee (but excluding any Excluded Taxes), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, (ii) the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (iii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iv) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries, or (v) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether (x) any Indemnitee is a party thereto or (y) such matter is initiated by a third party or by Parent or any of its affiliates; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Indemnified Persons, (ii) a material breach in bad faith by such Indemnitee or any of its Related Indemnified Persons of the express contractual obligations under any Loan Document pursuant to a claim made by Parent or the Borrower or (iii) any disputes among the Indemnitees or any of their Related Indemnified Persons (other than in their capacities as Lead Arrangers or Administrative Agent) and not arising from any act or omission by Parent or any of its Affiliates.

(c) To the extent that Parent or any Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.03, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and each Revolving Lender severally agrees to pay to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (it being understood that any Borrower’s failure to pay any such amount shall not relieve such Borrower of any default in the payment thereof); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) neither Parent nor any Borrower shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet) other than damages that are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Indemnified Persons, or (ii) no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) All amounts due under this Section 9.03 shall be payable not later than fifteen (15) days after written demand therefor.

Section 9.04 Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) Parent and the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender, except in a transaction permitted by Section 6.03 (and any attempted assignment or transfer by Parent or a Borrower without such consent shall be null and void).Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Sections 9.04(b) through (l) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (other than any Person that is not an Eligible Transferee) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section 9.04) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

189

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more “accredited investors” (as defined in regulation D of the Securities Act) (other than (1) Parent and its Affiliates, except to the extent permitted in Sections 2.24, 9.04(j), 9.04(g) and 9.04(k), (2) any natural Person, (3) any Defaulting Lender, (4) a Person that would be a Foreign Lender but is not capable of making the representation contained in Section 2.17(l) on the date it becomes a Lender, (5) any Disqualified Lender or (6) any Net Short Lender) (each, an “Eligible Transferee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent of:

(A) the applicable Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that such Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received written notice thereof; provided, further, that no consent of the applicable Borrower shall be required for (x) any assignment by any Agent or Lead Arranger (or any affiliate thereof) of Term Loans or related commitments pursuant to the primary syndication of such Term Loans and related commitments or (y) an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default under clause (a), (b), (h), (i) or (j) of Section 7.01 has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;

(B) the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and

(C) the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no consent of the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan or any related commitment.

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Xxxxxx’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the applicable Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 (in the case of Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans) or $1,000,000 (in the case of a Term Loan) unless each of the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the applicable Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

190

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Xxxxxx’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Xxxxxx’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, such fee to be paid by either the assigning Lender or the assignee Lender or shared between such Lenders;

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about Parent and its affiliates and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws;

(E) without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, no assignment shall be made to a prospective assignee that bears a relationship to the applicable Borrower described in Section 108(e)(4) of the Code; and

(F) if, at the time of any assignment, the respective assignee would be entitled to greater increased cost payments pursuant to Section 2.15 than those that apply to the respective assignor, then the respective assignee shall not be entitled to charge the Borrower for any such increased costs which would otherwise by owed to it pursuant to Section 2.15, but in each case only to the extent in excess of those that would have applied to the respective assignor at the time of such assignment.

For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:

“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is (or will be) engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section 9.04 (and, in the case of an Affiliated Lender or a Person that, after giving effect to such assignment, would become an Affiliated Lender, to the requirements of clause (g) of this Section 9.04), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption (or Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned

191

by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 9.04.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount of and interest on the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive (absent manifest error), and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(c), 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(e) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (excluding (x) Parent and its Affiliates (other than Debt Fund Affiliates) and (y) any Person that is not an Eligible Transferee) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (C) Parent, the Borrower 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. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to

192

which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 9.04, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender; provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(d) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the applicable Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the applicable Borrower, to comply with Section 2.17(e), Section 2.17(f), Section 2.17(g), Section 2.17(h) and Section 2.17(k) as though it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(e), Section 2.17(f), Section 2.17(g), Section 2.17(h) and Section 2.17(k) shall be delivered to the participating Lender). In addition, a Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.17 unless the applicable Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the applicable 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 the Loan Documents (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 Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or Proposed Section 1.163-5(b) of the United States Treasury Regulations (or, in each case, any amended or successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, and this Section 9.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

193

(e) In the case of any assignment, transfer or novation by a Lender to a new Lender, or any participation by such Lender in favor of a Participant, of all or any part of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, such Lender and the new Lender or Participant (as applicable) hereby agree that, for the purposes of Article 1278 and/or Article 1281 of the Luxembourg Civil Code (to the extent applicable), any assignment, amendment, transfer and/or novation of any kind permitted under, and made in accordance with the provisions of, this Agreement or any agreement referred to herein to which any Luxembourg Guarantor is a party (including any Collateral Document), any security created or guarantee given under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be preserved and shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of such new Lender or Participant (as applicable).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and Parent (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) such SPC and the applicable Loan or any applicable part thereof shall be appropriately reflected in the Participant Register. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of Parent or any Subsidiary under the Loan Documents (including its obligations under Sections 2.15 through 2.17), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable (and such Lender shall remain liable for such indemnity or similar payment obligation on behalf of the SPC), and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the Lender hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of any Borrower and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of $3,500 (which processing fee may be waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(g) Any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Term Loans under this Agreement to a Person who is or will become, after such assignment, an Affiliated Lender through (x) Dutch auctions or other offers to purchase or take by assignment open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with procedures determined by such Affiliated Lender in its sole discretion or (y) open market purchase consisting solely of cash on a non-pro rata basis, in each case subject to the following limitations:

194

(i) Affiliated Lenders will not (A) receive information provided solely to Lenders by the Administrative Agent or any Lender and will not be permitted to attend or participate in conference calls or meetings attended solely by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, other than the right to receive notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II or (B) make any challenge to the Administrative Agent’s or any other Lender’s attorney-client privilege on the basis of its status as a Lender;

(ii) each Affiliated Lender that purchases any Loans this subsection (g) shall identify itself as an Affiliated Lender;

(iii) each Lender (other than any other Affiliated Lender) that assigns any Loans to an Affiliated Lender pursuant to this subsection (g) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and Parent a customary Big Boy Letter;

(iv) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of any Class under this Agreement held by Affiliated Lenders at the time of any such purchase or assignment shall not exceed 25% of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of such Class outstanding at such time under this Agreement (such percentage, the “Affiliated Lender Cap”); provided that to the extent any assignment to an Affiliated Lender would result in the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans of any Class held by Affiliated Lenders exceeding the Affiliated Lender Cap, the assignment of such excess amount will be void ab initio;

(v) as a condition to each assignment pursuant to this subsection (g), the Administrative Agent and Parent shall have been provided a notice in connection with each assignment to an Affiliated Lender or a Person that upon effectiveness of such assignment would constitute an Affiliated Lender pursuant to which such Affiliated Lender (in its capacity as such) shall waive any right to bring any action in connection with such Loans against the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as such; and

(vi) the assigning Lender and the Affiliated Lender purchasing such Xxxxxx’s Term Loans shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2 hereto (an “Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption”).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Affiliated Lender that has purchased Term Loans pursuant to this subsection (g) may, in its sole discretion, contribute, directly or indirectly, the principal amount of such Term Loans or any portion thereof, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to a Borrower for the purpose of cancelling and extinguishing such Term Loans. Upon the date of such contribution, assignment or transfer, (x) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans shall reflect such cancellation and extinguishing of the Term Loans then held by such Borrower and (y) such Borrower shall promptly provide notice to the Administrative Agent of such contribution of such Term Loans, and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notice, shall reflect the cancellation of the applicable Term Loans in the Register.

195

Each Affiliated Xxxxxx agrees to notify the Administrative Agent and Parent promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) if it acquires any Person who is also a Lender, and each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent and Parent promptly (and in any event within ten (10) Business Days) if it becomes an Affiliated Lender. The Administrative Agent may conclusively rely upon any notice delivered pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence or pursuant to clause (v) of this subsection (g) and shall not have any liability for any losses suffered by any Person as a result of any purported assignment to or from an Affiliated Lender.

(h) Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.02 or the definition of “Required Lenders,” “Required Revolving Lenders” or “Majority in Interest” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders, Required Revolving Lenders and Majority in Interest in respect of a Class of Loans have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or subject to Section 9.04(i), any plan of reorganization pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, no Affiliated Lender shall have any right to consent (or not consent), otherwise act or direct or require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to take (or refrain from taking) any such action and, except with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action (x) in Section 9.02 requiring the consent of all Lenders, all Lenders directly and adversely affected or specifically such Lender, (y) that alters an Affiliated Lender’s pro rata share of any payments given to all Lenders, or (z) affects the Affiliated Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) in a manner that is disproportionate to the effect on any Lender in the same Class, the Loans held by an Affiliated Lender shall be disregarded in both the numerator and denominator in the calculation of any Lender vote (and shall be deemed to have been voted in the same percentage as all other applicable Lenders voted if necessary to give legal effect to this paragraph) (but, in any event, in connection with any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action, shall be entitled to any consent fee, calculated as if all of such Affiliated Lender’s Loans had voted in favor of any matter for which a consent fee or similar payment is offered).

(i) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, each Affiliated Lender hereby agrees that, and each Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption shall provide a confirmation that, if a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law shall be commenced by or against Parent or any other Loan Party at a time when such Lender is an Affiliated Lender, such Affiliated Lender irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent to vote on behalf of such Affiliated Lender with respect to the Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender in any manner in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, unless the Administrative Agent instructs such Affiliated Lender to vote, in which case such Affiliated Lender shall vote with respect to the Term Loans held by it as the Administrative Agent directs; provided that such Affiliated Lender shall be entitled to vote in accordance with its sole discretion (and not in accordance with the direction of the Administrative Agent) in connection with any plan of reorganization to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat any Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a disproportionately adverse manner than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Term Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders.

196

(j) Although any Debt Fund Affiliate(s) shall be Eligible Transferees and shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 9.04(g), (h) and (i), any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Term Loans under this Agreement to a Person who is or will become, after such assignment, a Debt Fund Affiliate. Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.02 or the definition of “Required Lenders” or “Required Revolving Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders or the Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable, have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, all Term Loans, Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans held by Debt Fund Affiliates, as applicable, in the aggregate, may not account for more than 49.9% of the Term Loans, Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans, as applicable, of consenting Lenders included in determining whether the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Lenders have consented to any action pursuant to Section 9.02.

(k) Any Lender may, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Term Loans under this Agreement to Parent or any Subsidiary through (x) Dutch auctions or other offers to purchase open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with Auction Procedures or (y) open market purchases consisting solely of cash on a non-pro rata basis; provided that:

(i) (a) the principal amount of such Term Loans, along with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, so contributed, assigned or transferred to Parent or any Subsidiary shall be deemed automatically cancelled and extinguished on the date of such contribution, assignment or transfer, (b) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans of the remaining Lenders shall reflect such cancellation and extinguishing of such Term Loans and (c) Parent or a Borrower shall promptly provide notice to the Administrative Agent of such contribution, assignment or transfer of such Term Loans, and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notice, shall reflect the cancellation of the applicable Term Loans in the Register;

(ii) each Person that purchases any Loans pursuant to this subsection (k) shall identify itself as Parent or a Subsidiary of Parent;

(iii) each Lender (other than an Affiliated Lender) that assigns any Loans to Parent, a Borrower or any Subsidiary of Parent pursuant to this subsection (k) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and Parent a customary Big Boy Letter; and

(l) purchases of Term Loans pursuant to this subsection (l) may not be funded with the proceeds of Revolving Loans.

197

Section 9.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid (except for Unliquidated Obligations) or any Letter of Credit is outstanding (unless such Letter of Credit has been Cash Collateralized) and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

Section 9.06 Integration; Counterparts; Electronic Signature. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or by email as a “.pdf” or “.tif” attachment shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement, and/or any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice, certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an electronic sound, symbol, or process attached to, or associated with, a contract or other record and adopted by a Person with the intent to sign, authenticate or accept such contract or record (an “Electronic Signature”) transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be. Nevertheless, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart.

Section 9.07 Severability. Any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

198

Section 9.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final and in whatever currency denominated) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of Parent, any Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor against any of and all of the Secured Obligations held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured; provided that any recovery by any Lender or any Affiliate pursuant to its setoff rights under this Section 9.08 is subject to the provisions of Section 2.18(d). The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

Section 9.09 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Foreign Process Agent. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) Parent and the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit, for themselves and their property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document (other than any Collateral Documents which specify a different jurisdiction), or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court.

Section 9.13 Release of Liens and Guarantees.

(a) A Guarantor (other than Parent and any Borrower) shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents upon (i) the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise or (ii) such Guarantor becoming an Excluded Subsidiary; provided that Parent has elected for such Excluded Subsidiary to be released from its Guaranty; provided, further to the extent any such Guarantor becomes an Excluded Subsidiary pursuant to clause (a) of the definition thereof, the transaction resulting in such Guarantor becoming an Excluded Subsidiary shall be (1) with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Borrower, (2) for a bona fide business purpose in the good faith determination of the Borrower Representative and (3) for fair market value. Upon (a) the occurrence of the Termination Date (as defined in the US Security Agreement), (b) any Disposition (other than any lease or license) by any Loan Party (other than to Parent or any Restricted Subsidiary) of any Collateral (i) in a transaction permitted under this Agreement or (ii) in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article VII or by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the US Security Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement or any Approved Intercreditor Agreement, (c) any Disposition by any Loan Party to a Receivables Entity of any Permitted Receivables Facility Assets in connection with a Permitted Receivables Facility, (d) any property of a Loan Party becoming an Excluded Asset or (e) the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest created under any Collateral Document in any Collateral pursuant to Section 9.02, the security interests in such Collateral shall be automatically released.

Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 9.13 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent.

(b) The Collateral Agent is irrevocably authorized to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by clauses (b), (d) or (h) of the definition of “Permitted Encumbrances” or Section 6.02(c), (d), (e), (g), (h), (k), (l), (m), (o), (p), (r), (y) (to the extent that the relevant Lien is of the type to which the Lien of the Collateral Agent may otherwise be required to be subordinated under this clause (b) pursuant to any of the other exceptions to Section 6.02 that are expressly included in this clause (b)), (bb) or (cc).

201

Section 9.14 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “USA Patriot Act”) hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the USA Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation.

Section 9.15 Appointment for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law can be perfected by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s instructions.

Section 9.16 No Fiduciary Relationship. Parent, on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, agrees that, in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document) and any communications in connection therewith: (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Lenders are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Parent and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Lenders and their Affiliates, on the other hand, (B) Parent has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) Parent is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Lenders and their Affiliates is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for Parent, the Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) no Lender or any of its Affiliates has any obligation to Parent, the Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except, in the case of a Lender, those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) each of the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Parent and its Affiliates, and no Lender or any of its Affiliates has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to Parent, the Borrower or their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Xxxxxx and the Borrower hereby agree not to assert any claims that they may have against each of the Lenders and their Affiliates with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

202

Section 9.17 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 9.18 Additional Borrowers.

(a) Parent may designate any wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary as a Borrower hereunder with respect to the Revolving Facility and/or any Incremental Revolving Commitments (and Incremental Revolving Loans) or any Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental Term Loans (other than Incremental Term Loans that are not Other Term Loans); provided, however, that such wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary shall be organized under the laws of (i) the same jurisdiction under which any other Borrower is organized or (ii) otherwise, a jurisdiction that is reasonably acceptable to the (x) Administrative Agent and (y)(1) in the case of an Additional Borrower with respect to the Revolving Facility, each of the Lenders under the Revolving Facility and (2) in the case of an Additional Borrower with respect to any Incremental Term Loans that are Other Term Loans, the Incremental Term Lenders with respect to such Incremental Term Loans. Such wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary shall become an Additional Borrower and a party to this Agreement by delivering to the Administrative Agent an Additional Borrower Joinder, and all references to the “Borrower” shall also include such Additional Borrower, as applicable, upon (a) the receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) copies, certified by the secretary or assistant secretary of such Additional Borrower, of resolutions of the board of directors or similar governing body of such Additional Borrower approving this Agreement and any other Loan Documents to which such Additional Borrower is becoming a party and performing the obligations thereunder and such other documents and certificates as the Administrative Agent or its counsel may reasonably request relating to the organization and existence of such Additional Borrower; (ii) an incumbency certificate, executed by the secretary or assistant secretary of such Additional Borrower, which shall identify by name and title and bear the signature of the officers of such Additional Borrower authorized to request Borrowings hereunder and sign this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Additional Borrower is becoming a party, upon which certificate the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely until informed of any change in writing by Parent or such Additional Borrower, as applicable; (iii) opinions of counsel to such Additional Borrower, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel, with respect to the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and such other customary matters as are reasonably requested by counsel to the Administrative Agent and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; (iv) at least three (3) Business Days prior to such designation, any other instruments and documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and each Lender under applicable “know-your-customer” or similar rules and regulations, including the USA Patriot Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation; and (v) a certificate from Parent and such Additional Borrower certifying that as of the date of such joinder, the conditions set forth in Section 4.02(a) and (b) shall be met as if a Credit Event were to

203

occur on such date and (b) the Lenders being provided with ten (10) Business Days’ prior notice (or such shorter period of time as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree) of any Additional Borrower being proposed to be added pursuant to this Section 9.18(a). This Agreement may be amended as necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and Parent to effect the provisions of or be consistent with this Section 9.18(a). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent with Xxxxxx’s consent, but without the consent of any other Lenders and furnished to the other parties hereto.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties hereto agree that any US Borrower shall only be jointly and severally liable with respect to the US Borrowings and shall not be jointly and severally liable with respect to any Loans and Obligations of any Borrower that is not a US Borrower.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement (but subject to subsection (b) of this Section 9.18), the parties hereto agree that the Borrower Representative shall be a co-borrower with respect to all Loans and other Obligations of any Additional Borrowers hereunder, and each reference herein to the “Additional Borrower(s)” or the “Borrower(s)” with respect to any Loans (other than Revolving Loans and related extensions of credit incurred directly by any Additional Borrower) or Obligations of any Additional Borrower hereunder shall be deemed to be a reference to any Additional Borrower and the Borrower Representative, jointly and severally. Subject to subsection (b) of this Section 9.18, each Additional Borrower and the Borrower Representative shall be jointly and severally liable for all such Loans and other Obligations, regardless of which Borrower actually receives the benefit thereof or the manner in which they account for such Loans and Obligations on their books and records. Upon the commencement and during the continuation of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lenders may (in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Additional Borrower or the Borrower Representative to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of, such Obligations, without first proceeding against the other Borrower(s) or any other Person, or any security or collateral for such Obligations, subject, however, to subsection (b) of this Section 9.18. Each Additional Borrower and the Borrower Representative consents and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Borrower or against or in payment of any or all of such Obligations.

Section 9.19 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institution.

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 Affected 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 the applicable 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 the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

204

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

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

Section 9.20 Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender hereby acknowledges that the Liens and security interests securing the Secured Obligations, the exercise of any right or remedy by the Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents or with respect thereto, and certain rights of the parties thereto are subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and any Approved Intercreditor Agreement that has been entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms hereof. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or any such Approved Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document with respect to the priority of any Liens granted to the Collateral Agent or the exercise of any rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and such applicable Approved Intercreditor Agreements shall govern and control.

205

(ii) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Xxxxxx’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments, this Agreement and the Loan Documents,

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Xxxxxx’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments, this Agreement and the Loan Documents, or

(b) In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such person became a Lender party hereto to the date such person ceases being a Lender, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Loan Parties, that none of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Xxxxxx’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments, this Agreement and the Loan Documents (including in connection with the reservation of exercise or any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

Section 9.22 Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements 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

206

respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding 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; and

(b) As used in this Section 9.22, the following terms have the following meanings:

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

(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.

PARENT GUARANTY

Section 10.01 Guaranty. Parent hereby guarantees to each Secured Party as hereinafter provided, as primary obligor and not as surety, the payment of the Secured Obligations in full in cash when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) strictly in accordance with the terms thereof. Parent hereby further agrees that if any of the Secured Obligations are not paid in full in cash when due (whether at stated maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise), Parent will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Secured Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full in cash when due (whether at extended maturity, as a mandatory prepayment, by acceleration, as a mandatory cash collateralization or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

Section 10.02 Obligations Unconditional. (a) The obligations of Parent under Section 10.01 are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or any substitution, release, impairment or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Secured Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor (other than payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations, other than contingent indemnification, tax gross up, expense reimbursement or yield protection obligations, in each case, for which no claim has been made), it being the intent of this Section 10.02 that the obligations of Parent hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Parent agrees that it shall have no right of subrogation, indemnity, reimbursement or contribution against a Borrower or any other Guarantor for amounts paid under this Article X until such time as the Secured Obligations have been paid in full in cash and the Commitments have expired or terminated.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of Parent hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

(i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to Parent the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Secured Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(ii) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Secured Obligations shall be done or omitted;

(iii) the maturity of any of the Secured Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Secured Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under any of the Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Secured Obligations shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Secured Obligations or any security therefor shall be released, impaired or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

208

(iv) any Lien granted to, or in favor of, the Collateral Agent or any other holder of the Secured Obligations as security for any of the Secured Obligations shall fail to attach or be perfected; or

(v) any of the Secured Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable (including, without limitation, for the benefit of any creditor of Parent) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including, without limitation, any creditor of Parent).

(c) With respect to its obligations hereunder, Parent hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other holder of the Secured Obligations exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Loan Documents or other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Secured Obligations.

Section 10.03 Reinstatement. The obligations of Parent under this Article X shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Person in respect of the Secured Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Secured Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings under any Debtor Relief Law, and Parent agrees that it will indemnify the Administrative Agent and each holder of the Secured Obligations on demand for all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent or such holder of the Secured Obligations in connection with such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any proceedings under any debtor relief law.

Section 10.04 Certain Additional Waivers. Parent further agrees that it shall have no right of recourse to security for the Secured Obligations, except through the exercise of rights of subrogation pursuant to Section 10.02 and through the exercise of rights of contribution pursuant to Section 10.06.

Section 10.05 Remedies. Parent agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, as between Parent, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the other holders of the Secured Obligations, on the other hand, the Secured Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 7.01 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Article VII) for purposes of Section 10.01 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or preventing the Secured Obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against any other Person and that, in the event of such declaration (or the Secured Obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), the Secured Obligations (whether or not due and payable by any other Person) shall forthwith become due and payable by Parent for purposes of Section 10.01. Parent acknowledges and agrees that its obligations hereunder are secured in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents and that the holders of the Secured Obligations may exercise their remedies thereunder in accordance with the terms thereof.

209

Section 10.06 Rights of Contribution. Parent agrees that, in connection with payments made hereunder, Parent shall have contribution rights against the other Guarantors as permitted under applicable law. Such contribution rights shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the obligations of such Guarantors under the Loan Documents and no Guarantor shall exercise such rights of contribution until all Secured Obligations have been paid in full in cash and the Commitments have terminated.

Section 10.07 Guarantee of Payment; Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee given by Parent, in this Article X is a guaranty of payment and not of collection, is a continuing guarantee, and shall apply to all Secured Obligations whenever arising.
