WHEREAS, subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Banks are willing to make available to the Borrower the credit facilities provided for herein:

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:

SECTION 1. Definitions. As used herein, the following terms shall have the meanings herein specified unless the context otherwise requires. Defined terms in this Agreement shall include in the singular number the plural and in the plural the singular:

“Acquired Entity” shall have the meaning provided in Section 9.05(l).

“Additional Indebtedness” shall have the meaning provided in Section 9.04(f).

“Adjusted Percentage” shall mean (x) at a time when no Bank Default exists, for each Bank, such Bank’s Revolving Loan Percentage and (y) at a time when a Bank Default exists (i) for each Bank that is a Defaulting Bank, zero and (ii) for each Bank that is a Non-Defaulting Bank, the percentage determined by dividing such Bank’s Revolving Loan Commitment at such time by the Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time, it being understood that all references herein to Revolving Loan Commitments and the Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment at a time when the Total Revolving Loan Commitment or Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment, as the case may be, has been terminated shall be references to the Revolving Loan Commitments or Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment, as the case may be, in effect immediately prior to such termination; provided that (A) no Bank’s Adjusted Percentage shall change upon the occurrence of a Bank Default from that in effect immediately prior to such Bank Default if, after giving effect to such Bank Default and any repayment of Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans at such time pursuant to Section 5.02(a) or otherwise, the sum of (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans of all Non-Defaulting Banks plus (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Swingline Loans plus (iii) the Letter of Credit Outstandings exceeds the Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment; (B) the changes to the Adjusted Percentage that would have become effective upon the occurrence of a Bank Default but that did not become effective as a result of the preceding clause (A) shall become effective on the first date after the occurrence of the relevant Bank Default on which the sum of (i) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans of all Non-Defaulting Banks plus (ii) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Swingline Loans plus (iii) the Letter of Credit Outstandings is equal to or less than the Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment; and (C) if (i) a Non-Defaulting Bank’s Adjusted Percentage is changed

“Adjusted Revolving Loan Commitment” for each Non-Defaulting Bank shall mean at any time the product of such Bank’s Adjusted Percentage and the Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment.

A Person shall be deemed to control a corporation if such Person possesses, directly or indirectly, the power (i) to vote 25% or more of the securities having ordinary voting power for the election of directors of

SECTION 2. Amount and Terms of Credit.

2.01 Commitments.

(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Bank with a Term Loan Commitment severally agrees to make, on the Initial Borrowing Date, a term loan or term loans (each a “Term Loan” and, collectively, “Term Loans”) to the Borrower, which Term Loans (i) shall be made pursuant to a single drawing, (ii) shall, at the option of the Borrower, be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans; provided that all Term Loans made as part of the same Borrowing shall, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, consist of Term Loans of the same Type, and (iii) shall equal for each Bank, in initial aggregate principal amount, that

amount which equals the Term Loan Commitment of such Bank on the Initial Borrowing Date (before giving effect to the termination thereof on such date pursuant to Section 4.03(a)). Once repaid, Term Loans incurred hereunder may not be reborrowed.

(b) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, each Bank with a Revolving Loan Commitment severally agrees to make, at any time and from time to time on and after the Initial Borrowing Date and prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, a revolving loan or revolving loans (each a “Revolving Loan” and, collectively, the “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrower, which Revolving Loans (i) shall, at the option of the Borrower, be Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans; provided that all Revolving Loans made as part of the same Borrowing shall, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, consist of Revolving Loans of the same Type, (ii) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof, (iii) shall not exceed for any Bank at any time outstanding that aggregate principal amount which, when combined with such Bank’s Adjusted Percentage, if any, of the sum of (x) the Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time plus (y) the outstanding principal amount of Swingline Loans at such time, equals (1) if such Bank is a Non-Defaulting Bank, the Adjusted Revolving Loan Commitment of such Bank at such time and (2) if such Bank is a Defaulting Bank, the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Bank at such time and (iv) shall not exceed in aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding, when combined with the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans then outstanding and the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time, an amount equal to the Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time.

(c) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Swingline Lender in its individual capacity agrees to make, at any time and from time to time on and after the Initial Borrowing Date and prior to the Swingline Expiry Date, a revolving loan or revolving loans (each a “Swingline Loan” and, collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) to the Borrower, which Swingline Loans (i) shall be made and maintained as Base Rate Loans, (ii) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof, (iii) shall not exceed in aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding, when combined with the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans made by Non-Defaulting Banks then outstanding and the Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time, an amount equal to the Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment then in effect (after giving effect to any reductions to the Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment on such date) and (iv) shall not exceed in aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding the Maximum Swingline Amount. The Swingline Lender will not make a Swingline Loan after it has received written notice from the Required Banks that one or more of the applicable conditions to Credit Events specified in Section 6 are not then satisfied.

(d) On any Business Day, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, give notice to the Banks that its outstanding Swingline Loans shall be funded with a Borrowing of Revolving Loans (provided that each such notice shall be deemed to have been automatically given upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under Section 10.05), in which case a Borrowing of Revolving Loans constituting Base Rate Loans (each such Borrowing, a “Mandatory Borrowing”) shall be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day by all Banks with a Revolving Loan Commitment pro rata based on each Bank’s Adjusted Percentage (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 10), and the proceeds thereof shall be applied directly to repay the

Swingline Lender for such outstanding Swingline Loans. Each such Bank hereby irrevocably agrees to make Base Rate Loans upon one Business Day’s notice pursuant to each Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the date specified in writing by Chase notwithstanding (i) that the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the Minimum Borrowing Amount otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 6 are then satisfied, (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (iv) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing and (v) any reduction in the Total Revolving Loan Commitment or Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment after any such Swingline Loans were made. In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code in respect of the Borrower), then each such Bank (other than the Swingline Lender) hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender (without recourse or warranty other than that such Swingline Loans are free and clear of any Liens) such assignment of the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause such Banks to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon their respective Adjusted Percentages (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 10); provided that all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date the respective assignment is purchased and, to the extent attributable to the purchased assignment, shall be payable to the Bank purchasing same from and after such date of purchase. Upon any change in the Revolving Loan Commitments or Adjusted Percentages of the Banks pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(ii) or 12.04(b), or upon the occurrence of a Bank Default, it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all outstanding Swingline Loans, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 2.01(d) to reflect the new Adjusted Percentages of the assigning and assignee Banks or of all Non-Defaulting Banks, as the case may be.

2.02 Minimum Borrowing Amounts, Etc. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount for such Loans. More than one Borrowing may be incurred on any day; provided that at no time shall there be outstanding more than eight Borrowings of Eurodollar Loans.

2.03 Notice of Borrowing.

(a) Whenever the Borrower desires to incur Loans hereunder (excluding Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans incurred pursuant to a Mandatory Borrowing), it shall give the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office, prior to 1:00 P.M. (New York time), at least three Business Days’ prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans and at least one Business Day’s prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing of Base Rate Loans to be incurred hereunder. Each such notice (each, together with each notice referred to in Section 2.03(b)(i), a “Notice of Borrowing”), except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.10, shall be irrevocable, and, in the case of each written notice and each confirmation of telephonic notice, shall be in the form of Exhibit A, appropriately completed to specify (i) whether the

Loans being incurred pursuant to such Borrowing shall consist of Term Loans or Revolving Loans, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of such Loans to be made pursuant to such Borrowing, (iii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv) whether the respective Borrowing shall consist of Base Rate Loans or Eurodollar Loans and, if Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Bank which is required to make Loans pursuant to the Borrowing specified in the respective Notice of Borrowing written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each proposed Borrowing, of such Bank’s proportionate share thereof, if any, and of the other matters covered by the Notice of Borrowing.

(b) (i) Whenever the Borrower desires to incur a Borrowing of Swingline Loans hereunder, it shall give the Swingline Lender no later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the day such Swingline Loan is to be made, written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Swingline Loan to be incurred hereunder. Each such Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify in each case (x) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (y) the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans to be incurred pursuant to such Borrowing and (z) wire instructions.

(ii) Mandatory Borrowings shall be made upon the notice specified in Section 2.01(d), with the Borrower irrevocably agreeing, by its incurrence of any Swingline Loan, to the making of Mandatory Borrowings as set forth in such Section.

(c) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice permitted to be given hereunder, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender (in the case of a Borrowing of Swingline Loans) or the Letter of Credit Issuer (in the case of the issuance of Letters of Credit), as the case may be, may prior to receipt of written confirmation act without liability upon the basis of such telephonic notice, believed by the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, in good faith to be from the chairman, a vice chairman, the president, the chief financial officer, the treasurer, an assistant treasurer, the supervisor, cash management or a director of treasury operations of the Borrower. In each such case, the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s, the Swingline Lender’s or the Letter of Credit Issuer’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice.

2.04 Disbursement of Funds. No later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing relating to any Loans (or (x) in the case of Swingline Loans, no later than 2:00 P.M. (New York time) on the date specified pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i) or (y) in the case of Mandatory Borrowings, no later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date specified in Section 2.01(d)), each Bank with a Commitment under the respective Tranche will make available its Pro Rata Share (if any) of each Borrowing of Loans requested to be made on such date in the manner provided below (or, in the case of Swingline Loans, each Swingline Lender will make available the full amount thereof). All such amounts shall be made available to the Administrative Agent in U.S. Dollars and immediately available funds at the Payment Office and the Administrative Agent promptly will make available to the Borrower by depositing to its account at the Payment Office the aggregate of the amounts so made available in the type of funds received (other than in respect of Mandatory Borrowings).

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Bank prior to the date of Borrowing of any Loans referred to in this Section 2.04(a) that such Bank does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent its portion of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may (in its sole discretion and without any obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Bank and the Administrative Agent has made available same to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount from such Bank. If such Bank does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Bank or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (x) if paid by such Bank, the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate or (y) if paid by the Borrower, the then applicable rate of interest, calculated in accordance with Section 2.08, for the respective Loans. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Bank from its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrower may have against any Bank as a result of any failure by such Bank to make Loans hereunder.

2.05 Register.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall maintain a register for the recordation of the Commitments of the Banks from time to time and the principal amount of the Term Loans, Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans owing to each Bank (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Bank at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(b) The Borrower hereby agrees to provide a Note, promptly upon the request of any Bank, to the extent such Bank has requested such Note in connection with any pledge or assignment by such Bank of any or all of its Loans hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank.

2.06 Conversions. The Borrower shall have the option to convert on any Business Day all or a portion at least equal to the applicable Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal amount of the Loans (other than Swingline Loans, which at all times shall be maintained as Base Rate Loans) owing by the Borrower into a Borrowing or Borrowings of another Type of Loan; provided that (1) no such partial conversion of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, (ii) Base Rate Loans may not be converted into Eurodollar Loans if a Default or Event of Default is in existence and the Administrative Agent and/or the Required Banks have notified the Borrower that such a conversion will not be permitted as a result thereof and (iii) Borrowings of Eurodollar

Loans resulting from this Section 2.06 shall be limited in number as provided in Section 2.02. Each such conversion shall be effected by the Borrower by giving the Administrative Agent at its Notice Office, prior to 1:00 P.M. (New York time), at least three Business Days (or one Business Day in the case of a conversion into Base Rate Loans) prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) (each a “Notice of Conversion”) specifying the Loans to be so converted, the Type of Loans to be converted into and, if to be converted into a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Bank prompt notice of any such proposed conversion affecting any of its Loans.

2.07 Pro Rata Borrowings. All Borrowings of Term Loans and Revolving Loans under this Agreement shall be made by the Banks pro rata on the basis of their Term Loan Commitments or Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be; provided that all Borrowings of Revolving Loans made pursuant to a Mandatory Borrowing shall be incurred from the Banks with Revolving Loan Commitments pro rata on the basis of their Adjusted Percentages. It is understood that no Bank shall be responsible for any default by any other Bank of its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Bank shall be obligated to make the Loans to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Bank to make its Loans hereunder.

2.08 Interest.

(a) The unpaid principal amount of each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum which shall at all times be the Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate in effect from time to time.

(b) The unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum which shall at all times be the Applicable Margin plus the relevant Eurodollar Rate.

(c) Overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest in respect of each Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum, payable on demand, equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time plus the sum of (i) 2% and (ii) the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans; provided that principal in respect of Eurodollar Loans shall bear interest after the same becomes due (whether by acceleration or otherwise) until the end of the applicable Interest Period for such Eurodollar Loan at a per annum rate, payable on demand, equal to 2% in excess of the rate of interest applicable on the due date therefor.

(d) Interest shall accrue from and including the date of any Borrowing to, but excluding the date of any repayment thereof and shall be payable (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan, quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, (ii) in respect of each Eurodollar Loan, on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period and (iii) in respect of each Loan, on any prepayment or conversion (on the amount prepaid or converted), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand.

(e) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 12.07(b).

(f) The Administrative Agent, upon determining the interest rate for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans for any Interest Period, shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Banks thereof.

2.09 Interest Periods. At the time the Borrower gives a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion in respect of the making of, or conversion into, a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans, it shall have the right to elect by giving the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of the Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower, be a one, two, three, six or, if available to each of the Banks (as determined by each such Bank in good faith based on prevailing conditions in the interbank Eurodollar market on any date of determination thereof) nine or twelve month period (or if agreed to by each Bank in the respective Tranche, such other period as requested by the Borrower). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above:

(i) unless otherwise requested by the Borrower and agreed to by each Bank in the respective Tranche, the initial Interest Period for any Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans shall commence on the date of such Borrowing (including the date of any conversion from a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;

(ii) if any Interest Period begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;

(iii) if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided that if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

(iv) no Interest Period for a Borrowing under any Tranche of Loans shall be elected which would extend beyond the respective Maturity Date for such Tranche; and

(v) no Interest Period may be elected at any time when a Default or Event of Default is then in existence and the Administrative Agent and/or the Required Banks have notified the Borrower that such an election will not be permitted as a result thereof.

If upon the expiration of any Interest Period, the Borrower has failed to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable to the respective Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans as provided above, or a Default or an Event of Default then exists and the Administrative Agent and/or the Required

Banks have given the notice referred to in clause (v) above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Borrowing into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

2.10 Increased Costs, Illegality, Etc.

(a) In the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the Administrative Agent or (y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Bank, shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto):

(i) on any date for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period that, by reason of any changes arising after the date of this Agreement affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of Eurodollar Rate; or

(ii) at any time, that such Bank shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any Eurodollar Loans because of (x) any change since the date of this Agreement in any applicable law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline, order or request (whether or not having the force of law), or in the judicial or administrative interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, guideline, order or request such as, for example, but not limited to, (A) a change since the Effective Date in the basis of taxation of payment to any Bank of the principal of or interest on the Loans or any other amounts payable hereunder (except for changes with respect to any Taxes) or (B) a change since the Effective Date in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the Eurodollar Rate and/or (y) other circumstances affecting such Bank, the interbank Eurodollar market or the position of such Bank in such market; or

(iii) at any time since the Effective Date, that the making or continuance of any Eurodollar Loan has become unlawful by compliance by such Bank in good faith with any law, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law but with which such Bank customarily complies even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or has become impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Effective Date which materially and adversely affects the interbank Eurodollar market;

then, and in any such event, such Bank (or the Administrative Agent in the case of clause (i) above) shall (x) on such date and (y) within 10 Business Days of the date on which such event no longer exists give notice (by telephone confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and (except in the case of clause (i)) to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Banks). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (i) above, Eurodollar Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Banks that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion

given by the Borrower with respect to Eurodollar Loans which have not yet been incurred shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower, (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower agrees to pay to such Bank, upon written demand therefor (accompanied by the written notice referred to below), such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Bank in its sole discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Bank for such increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Bank, showing the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrower by such Bank shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law.

(b) At any time that any Eurodollar Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), the Borrower may (and in the case of a Eurodollar Loan affected pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(iii) the Borrower shall) either (i) if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, cancel said Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof promptly (but in any event no later than the later of (x) the Business Day next preceding the date of such Borrowing and (y) one Business Day after the Borrower was notified by a Bank pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii)), or (ii) if the affected Eurodollar Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Bank to convert each such Eurodollar Loan into a Base Rate Loan (which conversion, in the case of the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(iii), shall occur no later than the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan (or such earlier date as shall be required by applicable law)); provided that if more than one Bank is affected at any time, then all affected Banks must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 2.10(b).

(c) (i) If any Bank shall have determined that after the Effective Date, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by such Bank with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Bank’s capital or assets as a consequence of its commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Bank could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within 15 days after demand by such Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), accompanied by the notice referred to in the last sentence of this clause (i), the Borrower shall pay to such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such reduction. Each Bank, upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall set forth the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish the Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10(c).

(ii) If (x) any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank or otherwise defaults in its obligations to make Loans or fund Unpaid Drawings, (y) any Bank has notified the Borrower that one of its Eurodollar Loans is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), or (z) any Bank is owed increased costs or other amounts under Section 2.10(c)(i), 3.06 or 5.04 and, in the case of such clause (y) or (z), compensation or other action with respect to such event is not otherwise requested generally by the other Banks, the Borrower shall have the right, if no Default or Event of Default then exists and, in the case of a Bank described in clause (y) or (z) above, such Bank has not changed its applicable lending office with the effect of eliminating such increased cost, to replace such Bank (the “Replaced Bank”) with another commercial bank or banks or other financial institutions (collectively, the “Replacement Bank”) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, and, in the case of any Replaced Bank with a Revolving Loan Commitment, the Letter of Credit Issuer; provided that (i) at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 2.10(c)(ii), the Replacement Bank shall enter into one or more assignment agreements pursuant to Section 12.04(b) (and with all fees payable pursuant to said Section 12.04(b) to be paid by the Replacement Bank) pursuant to which the Replacement Bank shall acquire all of the Commitments and outstanding Loans of, and participations in Letters of Credit by, the Replaced Bank and, in connection therewith, shall pay to the Replaced Bank (or the Letter of Credit Issuer in the case of the proviso contained in clause (b) below or the Swingline Lender in the case of clause (d) below) in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum of (a) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Replaced Bank, (b) an amount equal to the sum of such Replaced Bank’s Adjusted Percentage (for this purpose, determined as if the adjustment described in clause (y) of the immediately succeeding sentence had been made with respect to such Replaced Bank) of all Unpaid Drawings and all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time, provided that in the event such Replaced Bank did not reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to Section 3.05(c) in respect of any Unpaid Drawing, such amount shall instead be paid to the Letter of Credit Issuer, (c) an amount equal to any unpaid obligation of the Replaced Bank pursuant to Section 2.01(d), which amount shall be paid to the Swingline Lender, and (d) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid, Fees owing to the Replaced Bank pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof and (ii) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the Replaced Bank (other than those specifically described in clause (i) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Bank concurrently with such replacement. Upon the execution of the respective assignment documentation pursuant to clause (i) above and the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) above and (ii) above, (x) the Replacement Bank shall become a Bank or Banks hereunder, as the case may be, and the Replaced Bank shall cease to constitute a Bank hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions (including, without limitation, Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.06, 5.04, 11.07 and 12.01) under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such Replaced Bank and (y) the Adjusted Percentages of the Banks shall be automatically adjusted at such time to give effect to such replacement (and to give effect to the replacement of a Defaulting Bank with one or more Non-Defaulting Banks).

2.11 Compensation. The Borrower agrees to compensate each Bank in the appropriate currency, upon its written request (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such compensation), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any loss, expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Bank to fund its Eurodollar Loans but excluding loss of

anticipated profit with respect to any Loans) which such Bank may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Bank or the Administrative Agent) a Borrowing of Eurodollar Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion (whether or not withdrawn by the Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 2.10(a)); (ii) if any repayment, prepayment or conversion of any Eurodollar Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any Eurodollar Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower; or (iv) as a consequence of (x) any other default by the Borrower to repay its Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or (y) an election made pursuant to Section 2.10(b). Calculation of all amounts payable to a Bank under this Section 2.11 shall be made as though that Bank had actually funded its relevant Eurodollar Loan through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate in an amount equal to the amount of that Loan, having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of that Bank to a domestic office of that Bank in the United States of America; provided, however, that each Bank may fund each of its Eurodollar Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this Section 2.11.

2.12 Change of Lending Office. Each Bank agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (iii), Section 2.10(c)(i), 3.06 or 5.04 with respect to such Bank, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Bank) to designate another lending office for any Loans or Letters of Credit affected by such event; provided that such designation is made on such terms that in the sole judgment of such Bank, such Bank and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequences of the event giving rise to the operation of any such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Bank provided in Section 2.10, 3.06 or 5.04.

2.13 Incremental Loan Commitments. At any time and from time to time on and after the Initial Borrowing Date and prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date, the Borrower may request that one or more Banks or other lending institutions (each such lending institution, an “Incremental Loan Lending Institution”), as the case may be, (i) enter into commitments to make additional term loans as a Term Loan and (ii) enter into commitments to make additional Revolving Loans, subject to all the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and all other Credit Documents pertaining to Revolving Loans and Revolving Loan Commitments with such additional term loans having the same Guarantees from the Guarantors and being secured on a pari passu basis by the same Collateral as the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (any such commitment to make additional Term Loans or Revolving Loans, an “Incremental Loan Commitment”); provided that (A) no Default or Event of Default will exist immediately prior to or after giving effect thereto, (B) the maturity date of any additional Term Loan made pursuant to any such Incremental Loan Commitment shall not be earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date, (C) in the case of any such Incremental Term Loans and Term Loan Commitments with respect thereto, the other terms and documentation with respect thereto, to the extent not consistent with the Term Loan Commitment and the outstanding Term Loans, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being understood that the Administrative Agent has no approval

rights over interest rates or maturity date consistent with clause (B)), (D) the aggregate principal amount of all Incremental Loan Commitments shall not exceed the then Permitted Incremental Loan Commitment Amount, (E) with respect to any such additional Revolving Loans and Incremental Loan Commitments with respect thereto, they will be part of the Revolving Loan Commitments and have the same terms with respect thereto, (F) no Bank will be required to provide any such Incremental Loan Commitment, (G) the Borrower shall, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the Incremental Loans as if fully drawn on the date of such Incremental Loan Commitment, be in compliance with Section 9.09 for the most recent Test Period and (H) at any time prior to August 1, 2009, in the event that the Applicable Margin (at each level), on a yield-to-maturity basis, together with any original issue discount and upfront fees (the “Applicable Yield”) for the Incremental Term Loans is greater than the Applicable Margin, on a yield to maturity basis, of the Term Loans by more than 50 basis points, then the Applicable Margin for the Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary such that the Applicable Margin for the Term Loans plus 0.50% per annum shall be equal to the Applicable Yield for the Incremental Term Loans. Each Incremental Loan Commitment (whether constituting an addition to an existing Tranche or a new Tranche) shall be incorporated into this Agreement pursuant to a supplement or amendment hereto or an amendment and restatement hereof executed and delivered by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Incremental Loan Lending Institution whose Commitment is increasing pursuant thereto, and such Persons are hereby authorized to enter into any such supplement, amendment or amendment and restatement (which shall be binding on all parties), to the extent necessary (but only to the extent necessary) to effect such Incremental Loan Commitment.

SECTION 3. Letters of Credit.

3.01 Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Borrower may request the Letter of Credit Issuer at any time and from time to time on or after the Initial Borrowing Date and prior to 30 Days preceding the Revolving Loan Maturity Date to issue, for the account of the Borrower and in support of (x) trade obligations of the Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries and/or (y) on a standby basis, such other obligations (contingent or otherwise) of the Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries to any other Person, in each case, that arise in the ordinary course of business and are in respect of general corporate purposes (including, without limitation, in connection with Permitted Acquisitions) of the Borrower and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries, and subject to and upon the terms and conditions herein set forth the Letter of Credit Issuer agrees to issue from time to time, irrevocable letters of credit in such form as may be approved by the Letter of Credit Issuer and the Administrative Agent (each such letter of credit, a “Letter of Credit” and collectively, the “Letters of Credit”).

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no Letter of Credit shall be issued the Stated Amount of which, when added to the Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time, would exceed either (x) $25,000,000 or (y) when added to the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans made by Non-Defaulting Banks and Swingline Loans then outstanding, the Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time; (ii) each Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date occurring not later than two years after such Letter of Credit’s date of issuance; provided

that standby Letters of Credit may provide that, absent notice to the contrary from the Letter of Credit Issuer to the beneficiary thereof, the expiry date shall be automatically extended for successive one year periods and (iii) no Letter of Credit shall have an expiry date occurring later than 5 Business Days preceding the Revolving Loan Maturity Date.

(c) Annex VI attached hereto contains a description of all letters of credit issued and outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement on the Initial Borrowing Date (each such letter of credit, including any extension thereof and “Existing Letter of Credit”). The Borrower may request that a Letter of Credit be issued on the Initial Borrowing Date as provided in Section 6.01(j).

3.02 Minimum Stated Amount. The initial Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit shall be not less than $25,000 or such lesser amount acceptable to the Letter of Credit Issuer; provided that no more than 25 Letters of Credit (or such greater number acceptable to the Letter of Credit Issuer) shall be outstanding at any one time.

3.03 Letter of Credit Requests; Notices of Issuance.

(a) Whenever the Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued, it shall give the Administrative Agent and the Letter of Credit Issuer written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed in writing) thereof prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) at least five Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be acceptable to the Letter of Credit Issuer, which shall be the Initial Borrowing Date in the case of the Existing Letters or Credit) prior to the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day) (each a “Letter of Credit Request”), which Letter of Credit Request shall include an application for such Letter of Credit and any other documents that the Letter of Credit Issuer customarily requires in connection therewith. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of each Letter of Credit Request.

(b) The Letter of Credit Issuer shall, on the date of each issuance of a Letter of Credit by it or amendment thereto, give the Administrative Agent, each Bank and the Borrower written notice of the issuance or amendment of such Letter of Credit, accompanied by a copy to the Administrative Agent of the Letter of Credit or Letters of Credit issued by it or of the amendment thereto.

3.04 Agreement to Repay Letter of Credit Drawings.

(a) The Borrower hereby agrees to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer, by making payment to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Payment Office, for any payment or disbursement made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit issued by it (each such amount so paid or disbursed until reimbursed, an “Unpaid Drawing”) no later than one Business Day following the date of such payment or disbursement, with interest on the amount so paid or disbursed by the Letter of Credit Issuer, to the extent not reimbursed prior to 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the date of such payment or disbursement, from and including the date paid or disbursed to but not including the date the Letter of Credit Issuer is reimbursed therefor at a rate per annum which shall be the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans that are Revolving Loans plus the Base Rate as in effect from time to time (plus an additional 2% per annum if not reimbursed by the third Business Day after the date of such payment

or disbursement), such interest also to be payable on demand. The Letter of Credit Issuer shall provide the Borrower prompt notice of any payment or disbursement made by it under any Letter of Credit issued by it, although the failure of, or delay in, giving any such notice shall not release or diminish the obligations of the Borrower under this Section 3.04(a) or under any other Section of this Agreement.

(b) The Borrower’s obligation under this Section 3.04 to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Unpaid Drawings (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances, including, without limitation, those set forth in Section 3.05(e)(i) through (v), inclusive, and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower may have or have had against the Letter of Credit Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Bank, including, without limitation, any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such drawing; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to reimburse the Letter of Credit Issuer for any wrongful payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the Letter of Credit Issuer.

3.05 Letter of Credit Participations.

(a) Immediately upon the issuance by the Letter of Credit Issuer of any Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each other Bank with a Revolving Loan Commitment, and each such Bank (each a “Participant”) shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Letter of Credit Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Bank’s Adjusted Percentage, in such Letter of Credit, each substitute letter of credit, each drawing made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect thereto (although Letter of Credit Fees shall be payable directly to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Banks as provided in Section 4.01(b) and the Participants shall have no right to receive any portion of any Facing Fees) and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto. Upon any change in the Revolving Loan Commitments or Adjusted Percentages of the Banks pursuant to Section 2.10(c)(ii) or 12.04(b) or otherwise, or upon the occurrence of a Bank Default, it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit and Unpaid Drawings, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 3.05 to reflect the new Adjusted Percentages of the assigning and assignee Banks or of all Non-Defaulting Banks, as the case may be.

(b) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall not have any obligation relative to the Participants other than to determine that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they appear to comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Letter of Credit Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create for the Letter of Credit Issuer any resulting liability.

(c) In the event that the Letter of Credit Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and the Borrower shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to the Letter of Credit Issuer pursuant to Section 3.04(a), the Letter of Credit Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Participant of such failure, and each Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, the amount of such Participant’s Adjusted Percentage of such unreimbursed payment in U.S. Dollars and in same day funds; provided, however, that no Participant shall be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent its Adjusted Percentage of such unreimbursed amount for any wrongful payment made by the Letter of Credit Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions constituting willful misconduct or gross negligence on the part of the Letter of Credit Issuer. If the Administrative Agent so notifies any Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit prior to 11:00 A.M. (New York time) on any Business Day, such Participant shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer such Participant’s Adjusted Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds. If and to the extent such Participant shall not have so made its Adjusted Percentage of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, such Participant agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer at the overnight Federal Funds Effective Rate. The failure of any Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its Adjusted Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit shall not relieve any other Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer its Adjusted Percentage of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other Participant to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer such other Participant’s Adjusted Percentage of any such payment.

(d) Whenever the Letter of Credit Issuer receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer any payments from the Participants pursuant to clause (c) above, the Letter of Credit Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each Participant which has paid its Adjusted Percentage thereof, in U.S. Dollars and in same day funds, an amount equal to such Participant’s Adjusted Percentage of the principal amount thereof and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective participations.

(e) The obligations of the Participants to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Letter of Credit Issuer with respect to Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to counterclaim, setoff or other defense or any other qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents;

(ii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit, any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer, any Bank, or other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transaction between the Borrower and the beneficiary named in any such Letter of Credit);

(iii) any draft, certificate or other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(iv) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Credit Documents; or

(v) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default.

3.06 Increased Costs. If at any time after the Effective Date, the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Participant with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) by any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall either (i) impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against Letters of Credit issued by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant’s participation therein, or (ii) impose on the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Participant any other conditions affecting this Agreement, any Letter of Credit or such Participant’s participation therein; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant hereunder, then, upon demand to the Borrower by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant (a copy of which notice shall be sent by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant to the Administrative Agent), accompanied by the certificate described in the last sentence of this Section 3.06, the Borrower shall pay to the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant for such increased cost or reduction. A certificate submitted to the Borrower by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant, as the case may be (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant to the Administrative Agent), setting forth the basis for the determination of such additional amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Letter of Credit Issuer or such Participant as aforesaid shall be final and conclusive and binding on the Borrower absent manifest error, although the failure to deliver any such certificate shall not release or diminish the Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.06.

SECTION 5. Payments.

5.01 Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans incurred by it, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, from time to time on the following terms and conditions: (i) the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of its intent to prepay the Loans, whether such Loans are Term Loans, Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans, the amount of such prepayment and (in the case of Eurodollar Loans) the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made, which notice shall be given by the Borrower prior to 12:00 Noon (New York time) (x) at least two Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment in the case of Term Loans, Revolving Loans or (y) on the date of such prepayment in the case of Swingline Loans, which notice shall promptly be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to each of the Banks; (ii) (x) each partial prepayment of any Borrowing (other than a Borrowing of Swingline Loans) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $1,000,000 and, if greater, in an integral multiple of $500,000, (y) each partial prepayment of any Borrowing of Swingline Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $500,000 and, if greater, in an integral multiple of $250,000; provided that no partial prepayment of Eurodollar Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall reduce the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto; (iii) each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall be applied to reduce the then remaining Scheduled Term Loan Repayments as elected by the Borrower by written notice to the Administrative Agent at the time of each such prepayment; and (iv) each prepayment in respect of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among such Loans; provided that, at the Borrower’s election in connection with any prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 5.01, such prepayment shall not be applied to any Revolving Loans of a Defaulting Bank.

If, after giving effect to the repayment of all outstanding Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans, the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Outstandings exceeds the Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment then in effect, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent an amount in cash and/or Cash Equivalents equal to such excess (up to the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Outstandings) and the Administrative Agent shall hold such payment as security for the obligations of the Borrower hereunder pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (which shall permit certain investments in Cash Equivalents satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, until the proceeds are applied to the secured obligations).

(ii) If on any date the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans made by any Defaulting Bank exceeds the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Defaulting Bank, the Borrower shall repay the Revolving Loans of such Defaulting Bank in an amount equal to such excess.

In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its sole discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section 2.11. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.02, if at any time the mandatory repayment of Loans pursuant to Section 5.02(a) arising solely as a result of a reduction to the Total Revolving Loan Commitment pursuant to Section 4.03(d) would result, after giving effect to the procedures set forth above in this clause (h), in the Borrower incurring breakage costs under Section 2.11 as a result of Eurodollar Loans being repaid other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (the “Affected Eurodollar Loans”), then the Borrower may in its sole discretion initially deposit a portion (up to 100%) of the amounts that otherwise would have been paid in respect of the Affected Eurodollar Loans with the Administrative Agent to be held as security for the obligations of the Borrower hereunder pursuant to a cash collateral agreement to be entered into in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, with such cash collateral to be released from such cash collateral account upon the first occurrence (or occurrences) thereafter of the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the relevant Loans that are Eurodollar Loans (or such earlier date or dates as shall be requested by the Borrower), to repay an aggregate principal amount of such Loans equal to the Affected Eurodollar Loans not initially repaid pursuant to this sentence. Any Term Loans repaid pursuant to Section 5.01 or 5.02 may not be reborrowed.

5.03 Method and Place of Payment. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Banks entitled thereto (based on each Bank’s Pro Rata Share, if any), no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the date when due and shall be made in immediately available funds and in lawful money of the United States of America at the Payment Office. Any payments under this Agreement which are made later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) shall be

deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that to the extent that the Administrative Agent shall have received any payment under this Agreement after 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on a Business Day, the Administrative Agent shall use its best efforts to distribute such payment as promptly as practicable on such date to the Banks pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received, and to the extent that any such Bank receives its portion of such payment from the Administrative Agent on such same date by a time satisfactory to such Bank, such payment to such Bank shall be deemed to have been made on such date. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension.

5.04 Net Payments.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if any Credit Party shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.04) the applicable Bank, Swingline Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the applicable Credit Party or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable Credit Party or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Credit Parties. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Indemnification by the Credit Parties. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Bank, Letter of Credit Issuer and Swingline Lender within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.04) payable by the Administrative Agent, such Bank, such Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Bank, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Swingline Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Bank, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Swingline Lender , shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the applicable Credit Party to a governmental authority, such Credit Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such governmental authority evidencing such payment and a copy of the return reporting

such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Status of Foreign Banks. Any Foreign Bank, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, shall deliver to the Credit Parties and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank, Letter of Credit Issuer or Swingline Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Credit Parties or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Bank is legally entitled to do so), the Prescribed Forms, as applicable. In addition, each Foreign Bank shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Foreign Bank. Each Foreign Bank shall promptly notify the Credit Parties at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Credit Parties (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Foreign Bank shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Foreign Bank is not legally able to deliver.

(f) Treatment of Refund. If the Administrative Agent, Bank, Swingline Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer, as the case may be, determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Credit Party or with respect to which any Credit Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.04, it shall pay over such refund to the applicable Credit Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Credit Party under this Section 5.04 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Bank, Swingline Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Credit Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Bank, Swingline Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Credit Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant governmental authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Bank, Swingline Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer in the event the Administrative Agent or such Bank, Swingline Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will the Administrative Agent, any Bank, the Swingline Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer be required to pay any amount to any Credit Party the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent, Bank, the Swingline Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent, such Bank, the Swingline Lender or Letter of Credit Issuer would have been in if the additional amounts and indemnity payments giving rise to such refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid.

(d) Since December 31, 2006 and after giving effect to the consummation of the Transactions, the incurrence of Indebtedness hereunder and the other transactions contemplated hereby, there has been no event or occurrence which has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

7.10 Tax Returns and Payments. The Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries has filed all federal income tax and all other material Tax returns required to be filed by it and has paid all material Taxes payable by it which have become due, other than those not yet

delinquent and except for those contested in good faith and adequately disclosed and fully provided for on the financial statements of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP. The Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries have at all times paid, or have provided adequate reserves for the payment of all Taxes applicable for all prior fiscal years and for the current fiscal year to date, except to the extent that the failure to make such payments or provide such reserves would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no action, suit, proceeding, investigation, audit or claim now pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, threatened by any authority regarding any taxes relating to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, except to the extent that any such action, proceeding, investigation, audit or claim would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor its Restricted Subsidiaries has ever “participated” in a “listed transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4, except as could not be reasonably expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect.

7.11 Compliance with ERISA. As of the Initial Borrowing Date, there are no Plans and neither the Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any unpaid material liability or reasonably expects to incur any material liability with respect to any “employee pension benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(2) of ERISA) covered by Title IV of ERISA. As of the date of each subsequent Credit Event, (a) each Plan is in substantial compliance with ERISA and the Code; no Reportable Event has occurred with respect to a Plan; no Plan is insolvent or in reorganization; no failure to satisfy the minimum funding standard under Section 412 of the Code has occurred with respect to any Plan; no Plan has an accumulated or waived funding deficiency, has permitted decreases in its funding standard account or has applied for an extension of any amortization period within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code; neither the Borrower nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred or reasonably expects to incur any liability to or on account of a Plan pursuant to ERISA or the Code; no proceedings have been instituted by the PBGC to terminate any Plan; no condition exists which presents a material risk to the Borrower, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate of incurring a liability to or on account of a Plan pursuant to ERISA or the Code; no lien imposed under the Code or ERISA on the assets of the Borrower, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate exists or is likely to arise on account of any Plan; and the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries do not maintain or contribute to any “employee welfare benefit plan” (as defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA), which provides benefits to retired employees (other than as required by Section 601 of ERISA), (b) where, with respect to any of the foregoing representations in this Section 7.11, the liability for or the lien which could arise as a result of, the particular circumstance or event which is the subject of the representation, would be reasonably likely to result in a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), operations, assets, liabilities or prospects of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Using actuarial assumptions and computation methods consistent with subpart 1 of subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA, the aggregate liabilities of the Borrower, its Restricted Subsidiaries and ERISA Affiliates to all Plans which are “multiemployer plans” (as defined in Section 4001(a)(3) of ERISA) (each a “Multiemployer Plan”) in the event of a complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of the most recent fiscal year of each such Plan would not be reasonably likely to be an amount that could result in a material adverse effect on the condition (financial or otherwise), operations, assets, liabilities or prospects of the Borrower and its

Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.11 to the contrary, all representations and warranties made with respect to any Plan which is a Multiemployer Plan shall be made to the best knowledge of the Borrower.

(b) the Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries owns or is licensed to use all the patents, trademarks, permits, service marks, trade names, technology, know-how and formulas, or rights with respect to the foregoing, necessary for the present conduct of its business (together with the Copyrights, “Intellectual Property”);

(c) all Intellectual Property is protected under the laws of the United States relating to such Intellectual Property and has been duly and properly registered or filed with or issued by the appropriate governmental offices and jurisdictions for such registrations, filings or issuances;

(d) no material claim has been asserted by any Person challenging or questioning the use of any such Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any such intellectual Property; and

(e) the use of such Intellectual Property by the Borrower or its Restricted Subsidiaries does not infringe on the rights of any Person.

7.14 Compliance with Statutes, Etc. The Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries is in compliance with all applicable statutes, regulations and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all governmental bodies, domestic or foreign, in respect of the conduct of its business and the ownership of its property (including compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws with respect to any Real Property and the requirements of any permits issued under such Environmental Laws with respect to any such Real Property or the operations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries), except such noncompliances as would not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) the hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, or any other applicable federal, state, local or foreign law dealing with such matters;

(c) all payments due from the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, or for which any claim may be made against the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries; and

Each Bank expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Bank. Each Bank represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Bank, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, assets, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning

the business, operations, assets, property, financial and other condition, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

11.07 Indemnification. The Banks agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such ratably according to their respective “percentages” (which shall equal, for each Non-Defaulting Bank, that percentage determined by dividing (i) the sum of (x) such Bank’s Revolving Loan Commitment and (y) the outstanding principal amount of such Bank’s Term Loans by (ii) the sum of (x) the Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment and (y) the total aggregate principal amount of Term Loans less any outstanding Term Loans of Defaulting Banks, it being understood and agreed that references herein to Revolving Loan Commitments (as well as to the Adjusted Total Revolving Loan Commitment) at a time when any such Commitment has been terminated shall be references to such terminated Commitment as in effect immediately prior to such termination), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, reasonable expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever which may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Obligations) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or the transactions contemplated hereby or any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing, but only to the extent that any of the foregoing is not paid by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that no Bank shall be liable to the Administrative Agent for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent. If and to the extent any amount paid to the Administrative Agent is subsequently recovered by the Administrative Agent against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each Bank to the extent such Bank paid the Administrative Agent, its “percentage” of the amount so recovered. If any indemnity furnished to the Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired, the Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is furnished. The agreements in this Section 11.07 shall survive the payment of all Obligations.

11.08 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Bank an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that any Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Bank for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not property executed, or because such Lender failed to notify any Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding tax ineffective), such Bank shall indemnify and hold harmless such Agent (to the extent that the Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Agent as tax or otherwise, including any interest, additions to tax or penalties thereto, together

with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such tax were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant governmental authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Bank by any Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

11.09 Administrative Agent in Its Individual Capacity. The Administrative Agent and its respective affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as though the Administrative Agent were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. With respect to the Loans made by it and all Obligations owing to it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the terms “Bank” and “Banks” shall include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.

11.10 Holders. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note which has been issued hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a written notice of the assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be, shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person or entity who, at the time of making such request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any such Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or indorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

11.11 Resignation of the Administrative Agent; Successor Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent upon 20 days’ notice to the Banks. Upon the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Required Banks shall appoint from among the Banks a successor Administrative Agent for the Banks subject to prior approval by the Borrower (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall include such successor agent effective upon its appointment, and the resigning Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as the Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement. After the resignation of the Administrative Agent hereunder, the provisions of this Section 11 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

SECTION 12. Miscellaneous.

12.01 Payment of Expenses, Etc. The Borrower agrees to: (i) pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP) in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and delivery of the Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein and any amendment, waiver or consent relating thereto and in connection with the Administrative Agent’s syndication efforts with respect to this Agreement; (ii) pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and each of the Banks in connection with the enforcement of the Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to therein and,

after an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the protection of the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and each of the Banks thereunder (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (including in-house counsel) for the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and for each of the Banks); and (iii) indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer and each Bank, its officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents from and hold each of them harmless against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of, any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Bank is a party thereto) related to the entering into and/or performance of any Credit Document or the use of the proceeds of any Loans or Letter of Credit hereunder or the consummation of any other transactions contemplated in any Credit Document including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified).

12.02 Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Bank (including to the extent such Bank is, or is deemed to be, the holder of a funded participation in any Swingline Loan and/or Letter of Credit) is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Bank (including, without limitation, by branches and agencies of such Bank wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of such Credit Party to such Bank under this Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all interests in Obligations of such Credit Party purchased by such Bank pursuant to Section 12.06(b), and all other claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not such Bank shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured.

12.03 Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile communication) and mailed, facsimilied or delivered, if to the Borrower, at the address specified opposite its signature below or in the other relevant Credit Documents, as the case may be; if to any Bank, at its address specified for such Bank on Annex II hereto; or at such other address as shall be designated by any party in a written notice to the other parties hereto. All such notices and communications shall be mailed, facsimilied or cabled or sent by overnight courier, and shall be effective when received.

12.04 Benefit of Agreement.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its respective rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Banks. Each Bank may at any time grant participations in any of its rights hereunder to another financial institution; provided further that, in the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the participant’s rights against such Bank in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Bank in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Bank had not sold such participation, except that the participant shall be entitled to receive the additional amounts and indemnification payments under Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.06 and 5.04 of this Agreement (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirement to provide forms or any certification as if such participant were a Lender) to, and only to, the extent that such Bank would be entitled to such benefits if the participation had not been entered into or sold unless the sale of the participation to such participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent; and provided further that no Bank shall transfer, grant or assign any participation under which the participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan in which such participant is participating (it being understood that any waiver of an installment on, or the application of any prepayment or the method of application of any prepayment to the amortization of, the Loans shall not constitute an extension of the final scheduled maturity date), or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of the applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase such participant’s participating interest in any Commitment over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of any Commitment and that an increase in any Commitment shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if such participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from the Subsidiary Guaranty (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents), (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Lien of the Pledge Agreement and the other Credit Documents or (iv) in each case consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or any other Credit Document except in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof. Each Bank that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal and interest amount of each participant’s interest in the Loans held by it (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Bank shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such Loan or other obligation hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) any Bank may assign all or a portion of its Loans and/or Commitment and its rights and obligations hereunder to (i) any affiliate of such

Bank, (ii) any other Bank and/or its affiliates or (iii) any Approved Fund and (y) with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, and, in the case of any assignment of Revolving Loans and/or Revolving Loan Commitments, of the Letter of Credit Issuer (which consent in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), any Bank may assign all or a portion of its Loans and/or Commitments and its rights and obligations hereunder to one or more commercial banks, other Persons who invest in commercial loan facilities or other financial institutions; provided, however, that no consent of the Borrower shall be required if a Default or Event of Default exists under Section 10.01 or Section 10.05. No assignment pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall (x) to the extent such transaction represents an assignment pursuant to clause (y) of the preceding sentence (other than an assignment to a Bank and/or its affiliates), be in an aggregate amount less than the minimum of $1,000,000 in the case of a Bank’s assignment of a portion of a Bank’s Term Loans or $1,000,000 in the case of an assignment of a portion of a Bank’s Revolving Loan Commitment (or such lesser amount as constitutes the assigning Bank’s entire Commitment and outstanding Loans or such lesser amount as may be approved by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower). If any Bank so sells or assigns all or a part of its rights hereunder, any reference in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents to such assigning Bank shall thereafter refer to such Bank and to the respective assignee Bank to the extent of their respective interests and the respective assignee Bank shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided therein), the same rights and benefits as it would if it were such assigning Bank. Each assignment pursuant to this Section 12.04(b) shall be effected by the assigning Bank and the assignee Bank executing an Assignment and Assumption Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit G (appropriately completed). At the time of any such assignment, (i) Annex I shall be deemed to be amended to reflect the Commitments and outstanding Loans of the respective assignee Bank (which shall result in a direct reduction to the respective Commitments of the assigning Bank) and of the other Banks, (ii) the Administrative Agent as agent for the Borrower shall promptly record such assignment and the resultant effects thereof on the Loans and/or Commitments of the assigning Bank and the assignee Bank in the Register and (iii) the parties to each assignment (other than an assignment pursuant to clause (x) of the first sentence of Section 12.04(b)) shall pay to the Administrative Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent). Each Bank and the Borrower agree to execute such documents (including, without limitation, amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents) as shall be necessary to effect the foregoing. Promptly following any assignment pursuant to this Section 12.04(b), the assigning Bank shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof. Nothing in this Section 12.04(b) shall prevent or prohibit any Bank from pledging its Loans or, if issued, Notes hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Bank from such Federal Reserve Bank or prevent any Bank which is an Approved Fund from, at any time, pledging all or any portion of its Loans to its trustee or representative or other creditor; provided, however, that no such pledge shall release any Bank from its obligations hereunder or substitute such Federal Reserve Bank, trustee or representative or other creditor for such Bank as a party hereto.

(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 12.04, no transfer or assignment of the interests or obligations of any Bank hereunder or any grant of participations therein shall be permitted if such transfer, assignment or grant would require the Borrower to file a registration statement with the SEC or to qualify the Loans under the “Blue Sky” laws of any State.

12.05 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Bank in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Bank shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or any Bank would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Letter of Credit Issuer or the Banks to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

12.06 Payments Pro Rata.

(a) The Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of any Obligations of the Borrower hereunder, it shall, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, distribute such payment to the Banks (other than any Bank that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of such payment) pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.

(b) Each of the Banks agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross-action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise) which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans, Unpaid Drawings or Fees, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Banks is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Bank bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Banks immediately prior to such receipt, then such Bank receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Banks an interest in the Obligations of the Borrower to such Banks in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all of the Banks in such amount; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Bank, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of the preceding Sections 12.06(a) and (b) shall be subject to the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non-Defaulting Banks as opposed to Defaulting Banks.

12.07 Calculations; Computations.

(a) The financial statements to be furnished to the Banks pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Borrower

to the Banks); provided that except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all computations determining compliance with Section 9, including definitions used therein, shall utilize accounting principles and policies in effect at the time of the preparation of, and in conformity with those used to prepare, the December 31, 2006 historical financial statements delivered to the Banks pursuant to Section 7.10(a).

(b) All computations of interest (other than interest on Base Rate Loans) and Fees hereunder shall be made on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days. All computations of interest on Base Rate Loans hereunder shall be made on the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, except where determined pursuant to clause (y) of the definition of Base Rate in which it shall be on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days.

12.08 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Credit Document may be brought in the courts of the State of New York or of the United States for the Southern District of New York, and, by execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Borrower hereby irrevocably accepts for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts. The Borrower hereby further irrevocably waives any claim that any such courts lack jurisdiction over the Borrower, and agrees not to plead or claim, in any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any other Credit Document brought in any of the aforesaid courts, that any such court lacks jurisdiction over the Borrower. The Borrower irrevocably consents to the service of process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Borrower, at its address for notices pursuant to Section 12.03, such service to become effective 30 days after such mailing. The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any action or proceeding commenced hereunder or under any other Credit Document that service of process was in any way invalid or ineffective. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants that its chief executive office is located at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, and the Borrower hereby further agrees that it shall not move its chief executive office unless it shall give the Administrative Agent not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of its intention so to do. The Borrower agrees that (x) prior to moving its chief executive office outside New York City and (y) and if for any reason any designee, appointee and agent previously appointed pursuant to this sentence shall cease to be available to act as such, the Borrower shall designate a designee, appointee and agent or replacement designee, appointee and agent, as the case may be, in New York City on the terms and for the purposes of this provision satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Nothing herein shall affect the right of the Administrative Agent, any Bank or the holder of any Note to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against the Borrower in any other jurisdiction.

(b) The Borrower hereby irrevocably waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any of the aforesaid actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document brought in the courts referred to in clause (a) above and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

12.09 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

(f) If any Bank (such Bank, a “Non-Consenting Bank”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 12.12(a) requires the consent of all of the Banks affected and with respect to which the Required Banks shall have granted their consent, then provided no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Bank grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting Bank by requiring such Non-Consenting Bank to assign its Loans and its Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, provided that (i) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Bank being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Bank concurrently with such assignment and (ii) the replacement Bank shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Bank a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In connection with any such assignment, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Bank and the replacement Bank shall otherwise comply with Section 12.04.
