2.18 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Subject to Section 2.12(g), each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder shall be made pro rata according to the respective Term Percentages of the relevant Lenders. Each payment (other than prepayments) in respect of principal or interest in respect of the Second Lien Term Loans or New Term Loans and each payment in respect of fees payable hereunder shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the Second Lien Term Lenders or New Term Lenders, as applicable, pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to such Lenders, other than payments pursuant to Section 2.11(b) or 2.24.

(b) Subject to Section 2.12(g), each mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans shall be allocated between the Second Lien Term Facility and any New Facility comprising Term Loans, if any, pro rata except as affected by the opt-out provision under Section 2.12(e). Each optional prepayment of the Term Loans shall be allocated between the Facilities as directed by the Borrower. Each optional prepayment of the Second Lien Term Loans or New Term Loans shall be allocated to the Lenders holding such Loans on a pro rata basis, based on the principal amount of such Loans held by such Lender of the Second Lien Term Loans or New Term Loans applied to the remaining installments thereof as specified by the Borrower (except for prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(b) or Section 2.24) and each mandatory prepayment of the Second Lien Term Loans or New Term Loans shall be allocated to the Lenders holding such Loans on a pro rata basis, based on the principal amount of such Loans held by such Lender of the Second Lien Term Loans or New Term Loans and shall be applied to the remaining installments thereof in direct order of maturity. Amounts repaid or prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(c) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Lenders, at the Funding Office, in immediately available funds.

The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the relevant Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal

to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be presumptively correct in the absence of demonstrable error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall give notice of such fact to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon, for each day from such Borrowing Date until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Fixed Rate, on demand, from the Borrower. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower against any Defaulting Lender.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each relevant Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.

(b) If any Lender shall have reasonably determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any entity controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority first made, in each case, subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such entity’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under to a level below that which such Lender or such entity could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such entity’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a reasonably detailed written request therefor (consistent with the detail provided by such Lender to similarly situated borrowers), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such entity for such reduction.

(c) A certificate prepared in good faith as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.19 submitted by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be presumptively correct in the absence of demonstrable error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.19, the Borrower shall not be

required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.19 for any amounts incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such 180-day period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.

2.20 Taxes. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or as required by law, all payments made by the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Administrative Agent or any Lender under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes, excluding (i) net income Taxes, net profits Taxes and franchise Taxes (and net worth Taxes and capital Taxes imposed expressly in lieu of net income Taxes) imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender (A) by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or, in the case of a pass-through entity, any of its beneficial owners) is organized or in which its applicable lending office is located or (B) as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent or such Lender or beneficial owner and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such Tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent or such Lender having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document), (ii) any branch profits Taxes imposed by the United States or any similar Tax imposed by any other jurisdiction in which the applicable Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents is located or is deemed to be doing business and (iii) any Taxes that would not have been imposed but for a failure by any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any financial institution through which any payment is made to enter into or to comply with any applicable certification, documentation, information or other reporting requirement or agreement concerning United States accounts maintained by the Lender, the Administrative Agent or any such financial institution or concerning United States ownership of the Lender, or any substantially similar requirement or agreement, if entering into or complying with such requirement or agreement is required by statute or regulation of the United States as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge; provided that such certification, documentation, information or other reporting requirement or agreement has been requested by the Borrower. If any such nonexcluded Taxes (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) or Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to the Administrative Agent, or any Lender hereunder, the amounts payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent, or such Lender (after deduction or withholding of all Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes including Non-Excluded Taxes attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.20(a)) interest or any such other amounts payable at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement or the relevant Loan Document; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be required to pay to or increase any such amounts payable to or in respect of any Lender or the Administrative Agent with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (i) that are attributable to such Lender’s (or, in the case of a pass-through entity, any of its beneficial owners’) or the Administrative Agent’s failure to comply with the requirements of

paragraph (d) or (e), as applicable, of this Section 2.20, (ii) that are withholding Taxes resulting from any Requirement of Law in effect on the date such Lender becomes a party hereto, unless such Taxes are imposed as a result of any change in facts, occurring after such Lender becomes a party hereto, that is attributable to the Borrower or any Loan Party, except (in the case of an assignment) to the extent that such Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of such assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to such Taxes pursuant to this paragraph or (iii) that are U.S. federal withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA.

(b) In addition, the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the Borrower and any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof if such receipt is obtainable, or, if not, such other evidence of payment as may reasonably be required by the Administrative Agent or such Lender. If the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes that the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents is required to pay pursuant to this Section 2.20 (or in respect of which the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents would be required to pay increased amounts pursuant to Section 2.20(a) if such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes were withheld) when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any payments by them of such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (including any incremental taxes, interest or penalties on any such Other Taxes) that become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure within thirty days after the Lender or the Administrative Agent delivers to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) either (a) a copy of the receipt issued by a Governmental Authority evidencing payment of such Taxes or (b) certificates as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared in good faith.

(d) (i) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “Non-US Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Borrower and to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) (i) two accurate and complete copies of IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8 EXP, W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E or W-8IMY (together with any applicable underlying IRS forms required from each of its beneficial owners) or (ii) in the case of a Non-US Lender claiming exemption from United States federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit K hereto and two accurate and complete copies of IRS Form ▇-▇▇▇▇, ▇-▇▇▇▇-▇, ▇-▇▇▇▇, W-8 EXP or W-8IMY (together with any applicable underlying IRS forms required from each of its beneficial owners), or any

subsequent versions or successors to such forms, in each case properly completed and duly executed by such Non-US Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, United States federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-US Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation) and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. In addition, each Non-US Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-US Lender. Each Non-US Lender shall (i) promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the United States taxing authorities for such purpose) and (ii) take such steps as shall not be disadvantageous to it, in its reasonable judgment, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its lending office pursuant to Section 2.23) to avoid any requirement of applicable laws of any such jurisdiction that the Borrower or any Loan Party make any deduction or withholding for Taxes from amounts payable to such Lender. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-US Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-US Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(ii) The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, on or before the date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent hereunder, whichever of the following is applicable: (A) two accurate and complete copies of IRS Form W-9, or any subsequent versions or successors to such form and certify that such Administrative Agent is not subject to backup withholding; or (B) two accurate and complete copies of IRS Form W-8IMY certifying on Part I and Part IV of such IRS Form W-8IMY (or applicable successor form or Parts) that it is a U.S. branch that has agreed to be treated as a U.S. person for United States federal withholding Tax purposes with respect to payments received by it from the Borrower in its capacity as an intermediary. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide the certification described in the preceding sentence.

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

(e) Each Lender that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “US Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete copies of IRS Form W-9, or any subsequent versions or successors to such form and certify that such Lender is not subject to backup withholding. Such forms shall be delivered by each US Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement. In addition, each US Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such US Lender. Each US Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certifications to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the United States taxing authorities for such purpose).

(e) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender determines, in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (including any incremental taxes, interest or penalties on any such Other Taxes) as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or any Loan Party or with respect to which the Borrower or any Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20, it shall promptly pay over the amount of such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Section 2.20 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender incurred in good faith in connection with obtaining such refund and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority; provided, further that the Borrower shall not be required to repay to the Administrative Agent or the Lender an amount in excess of the amount paid over by such party to the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.20. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. In no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have been in if the additional amounts giving rise to such refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid. The agreements in this Section 2.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.

2.21 [Reserved].

2.22 [Reserved].

2.23 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.19, 2.20(a) or 2.22 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided that such

designation is made on terms that, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage and; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 2.23 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, 2.20(a) or 2.22.

2.24 Replacement of Lenders. The Borrower shall be permitted to (a) replace with a financial institution or financial institutions, or (b) prepay, without premium or penalty, the Loans of, any Lender that (i) requests reimbursement for amounts owing or otherwise results in increased costs imposed on the Borrower or on account of which the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to any Governmental Authority pursuant to Section 2.19 or 2.20 or gives a notice of illegality pursuant to Section 2.22, (ii) is a Defaulting Lender or (iii) has refused to consent to any waiver or amendment with respect to any Loan Document that requires such Lender’s consent and has been consented to by the Required Lenders; provided that, in the case of a replacement pursuant to clause (a) above, (A) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (B) the replacement financial institution or financial institutions shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (C) the replacement financial institution or financial institutions, (x) if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to the extent that an assignment to such replacement financial institution of the rights and obligations being acquired by it would otherwise require the consent of the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.6(b)(i)(B) and (y) shall pay (unless otherwise paid by the Borrower) any processing and recordation fee required under Section 10.6(b)(ii)(B), (E) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6, (F) the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.19 or 2.20, as the case may be, in respect of any period prior to the date on which such replacement shall be consummated, (G) if applicable, the replacement financial institution or financial institutions shall consent to such amendment or waiver and (H) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. Prepayments pursuant to clause (b) above (i) shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount so prepaid up to the date of such prepayment and (ii) shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 2.18.

2.25 Incremental Loans. (a) The Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “New Term Commitment”) hereunder, in an aggregate amount for all such New Term Commitment not in excess of the Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount. Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the New Term Commitment shall be effective, which date shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided that any Lender offered or approached to provide all or a portion of any New Term Commitment may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such New Term Commitment.

Such New Term Commitment shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date; provided that (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New Term Commitment and to the making of any Tranche of New Loans pursuant thereto and after giving effect to any Permitted Acquisition or similar Investment consummated in connection therewith (provided, however, that, if the proceeds of

any New Loans shall be used for a Permitted Acquisition, the Lenders providing such New Loans may waive any such Default or Event of Default existing on the applicable Increased Amount Date); (ii) the proceeds of any New Loans shall be used for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, Permitted Acquisitions and Investments permitted under Section 7.7 and prepayments or refinancing of Permitted Other Indebtedness and First Lien Indebtedness); (iii) the New Loans shall share ratably in the Collateral; (iv) no Lender shall be obligated to provide any portion of any New Loan Commitment; (v) the New Loans that are Term Loans (“New Term Loans”) shall share ratably or less in any mandatory prepayments of the existing Term Loans; (vi) the maturity date of the New Term Loans shall not be earlier than the Second Lien Term Maturity Date and the weighted average life to maturity shall be equal to or greater than the weighted average life to maturity of Second Lien Term Loans; (vii) all terms and documentation with respect to any New Loans which differ from those with respect to the Loans under the applicable Facility shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (except to the extent permitted by clauses (vi) and (vii) above and the last sentence of this paragraph); (viii) such New Loans or New Term Commitment shall be effected pursuant to one or more Joinder Agreements executed and delivered by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and one or more New Lenders; (ix) with respect to any Mortgages that exist at the time of such New Loans, modifications to such Mortgages may be recorded and the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any title endorsements reasonably requested by Administrative Agent; (x) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any customary legal opinions, including legal opinions from local counsel with respect to any mortgage modifications, or other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with any such transaction, including any supplements or amendments to the Security Documents providing for such New Loans to be secured thereby; (xi) if the interest rate (for purposes of this clause (xi) the “interest rate” with respect to any Loan shall be calculated to include (A) any original issue discount or upfront fees in lieu of original issue discount (other than any arranging fees, underwriting fees and commitment fees) (based on an assumed four-year average life for the applicable Facilities (e.g., 100 basis points in original issue discount or upfront fees equals 25 basis points of interest rate margin) and (B) any applicable interest rate floor) applicable to the New Term Loans exceeds the Fixed Rate by more than 0.50%, the Fixed Rate relating to the existing Second Lien Term Loans shall be adjusted so that the interest rate applicable to the New Term Loans does not exceed the interest rate applicable to the existing Second Lien Term Loans by more than 0.50%. Any New Loans made on an Increased Amount Date that have terms and provisions that differ from those of the Term Loans outstanding on the date on which such New Loans are made shall be designated as a separate tranche (a “Tranche”) of Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement, except as the relevant Joinder Agreement otherwise provides. For the avoidance of doubt, the rate of interest and the amortization schedule (if applicable) of any New Term Commitment shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable New Lenders and shall be set forth in the applicable Joinder Agreement.

(b) On any Increased Amount Date on which any New Loan Commitment become effective, subject to the foregoing terms and conditions, each lender with a New Loan Commitment (each, a “New Lender”) shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such New Loan Commitment.

(c) The terms and provisions of the New Term Commitment of any Tranche shall be, except as otherwise set forth in the relevant Joinder Agreement, identical to those of the applicable Term Loans and for purposes of this Agreement, any New Loans or New Term Commitment shall be deemed to be Term Loans. Each Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.25.

2.26 [Reserved].

2.27 Extended Loans.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of a class of Loans (an “Existing Loan Facility”) be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Loans (any such Loans which have been so converted, “Extended Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.27. In order to establish any Extended Loans, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Loan Facility) (an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Loans to be established which shall be identical to the class of Loans from which such Extended Loans are to be converted except that:

(i) all or any of the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the Extended Loans may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the class of Loans being converted to the extent provided in the applicable Loan Extension Amendment;

(ii) the interest margins with respect to the Extended Loans may be different from the interest margins for the class of Loans being converted and upfront fees may be paid to the Extending Lenders, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Loan Extension Amendment;

(iii) the Loan Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the latest final maturity of all classes of Loans in effect on the effective date of the Loan Extension Amendment immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Loans; and

(iv) no Extended Loans may be optionally prepaid prior to the date on which the Loans under the class from which they were converted are repaid unless such optional prepayment is accompanied by a pro rata optional prepayment of the Loans under such class that were not converted; and

(v) any such Extended Loans (and the Liens securing the same) shall be permitted by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent the Intercreditor Agreement is then in effect).

Any Extended Loans converted pursuant to any Extension Request shall be designated as a class of Extended Loans for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Loans converted may, to the extent provided in the applicable Loan Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established class of Extended Loans.

(b) The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request to all Lenders of such class that is subject to the Extension Request at least five (5) Business Days prior to the date on which Lenders under such class being converted are requested to respond. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Loans of such class converted into Extended Loans pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Loans under such class being converted into Extended Loans shall notify the Administrative Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Loans of such class which it has elected to request be converted into Extended Loans (subject to any minimum denomination requirements reasonably imposed by the Administrative Agent). In the event that the aggregate amount of Loans under such class being converted exceeds the amount of Extended Loans requested pursuant to the Extension Request, Loans subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to Extended Loans on a pro rata basis based on the amount of Loans included in each such Extension Election.

(c) Extended Loans shall be established pursuant to an amendment (a “Loan Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Extending Lender providing an Extended Loan thereunder which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in paragraph (a) above (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender). Each Loan Extension Amendment shall be binding on the Lenders, the Loan Parties and the other parties hereto. In connection with any Loan Extension Amendment, the Loan Parties and the Collateral Agent shall enter into confirmations or reaffirmations to the Security Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent (which shall not require any consent from any Lender) in order to ensure that the Extended Loans are provided with the benefit of the applicable Security Documents.

2.28 Permitted Debt Exchanges.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, a “Permitted Debt Exchange Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders (other than any Lender that, if requested by the Borrower, is unable to certify that it is either a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) or an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended)) with outstanding Term Loans under one or more classes of Term Loans (as determined by the Borrower) on the same terms, the Borrower may from time to time following the Closing Date consummate one or more exchanges of Term Loans for Permitted Other Indebtedness in the form of notes (such notes, “Permitted Debt Exchange Notes,” and each such exchange a “Permitted Debt Exchange”), so long as the following conditions are satisfied: (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time the offering document in respect of a Permitted Debt Exchange Offer is delivered to the relevant Lenders, (ii) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of Term Loans exchanged shall equal the aggregate principal amount (calculated

on the face amount thereof) of Permitted Debt Exchange Notes issued in exchange for such Term Loans, (iii) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans exchanged under each applicable class by the Borrower pursuant to any Permitted Debt Exchange shall automatically be cancelled and retired by the Borrower on date of the settlement thereof (and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, any applicable exchanging Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, or such other form as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, in respect thereof pursuant to which the respective Lender assigns its interest in the Term Loans being exchanged pursuant to the Permitted Debt Exchange to the Borrower for immediate cancellation), (iv) if the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) of a given class tendered by Lenders in respect of the relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer (with no Lender being permitted to tender a principal amount of Term Loans which exceeds the principal amount thereof of the applicable class actually held by it) shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of such class offered to be exchanged by the Borrower pursuant to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer, then the Borrower shall exchange Term Loans under the relevant class tendered by such Lenders ratably up to such maximum based on the respective principal amounts so tendered, or if such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall have been made with respect to multiple classes without specifying a maximum aggregate principal amount offered to be exchanged for each class, and the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all classes tendered by Lenders in respect of the relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer (with no Lender being permitted to tender a principal amount of Term Loans which exceeds the principal amount thereof actually held by it) shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of all relevant classes offered to be exchanged by the Borrower pursuant to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer, then the Borrower shall exchange Term Loans across all classes subject to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer tendered by such Lenders ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts so tendered, (v) each such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall be made on a pro rata basis to the Lenders (other than any Lender that, if requested by the Borrower, is unable to certify that it is either a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) or an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended)) of each applicable class based on their respective aggregate principal amounts of outstanding Term Loans under each such class, (vi) all documentation in respect of such Permitted Debt Exchange shall be consistent with the foregoing, and all written communications generally directed to the Lenders in connection therewith shall be in form and substance consistent with the foregoing and made in consultation with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and (vii) any applicable Minimum Tender Condition shall be satisfied.

(b) With respect to all Permitted Debt Exchanges effected by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.28, (i) such Permitted Debt Exchanges (and the cancellation of the exchanged Term Loans in connection therewith) shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 2.11 or 2.12, and (ii) such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall be made for not less than $25,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Term Loans, provided that subject to the foregoing clause (ii) the Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Tender Condition”) to consummating any such Permitted Debt Exchange that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer in the Borrower’s discretion) of Term Loans of any or all applicable

classes be tendered. Upon the consummation of any Permitted Debt Exchange, the outstanding principal amount of the Second Lien Term Loans shall automatically be deemed reduced in an aggregate amount equal to the principal amount of Term Loans exchanged in such Permitted Debt Exchange.

(c) In connection with each Permitted Debt Exchange, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least 10 Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, shall mutually agree to such procedures as may be necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.28 and without conflict with Section 2.28(d); provided that the terms of any Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall provide that the date by which the relevant Lenders are required to indicate their election to participate in such Permitted Debt Exchange shall be not less than five (5) Business Days following the date on which the Permitted Debt Exchange Offer is made.

(d) The Borrower shall be responsible for compliance with, and hereby agrees to comply with, all applicable securities and other laws in connection with each Permitted Debt Exchange, it being understood and agreed that (x) neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender assumes any responsibility in connection with the Borrower’s compliance with such laws in connection with any Permitted Debt Exchange and (y) each Lender shall be solely responsible for its compliance with any applicable “▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇” laws and regulations to which such Lender may be subject under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by the Loan Parties thereto, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not (a) violate the organizational or governing

(b) Holdings, the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries have not incurred, and do not reasonably expect to incur, any liability under ERISA or the Code with respect to any plan within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA which is subject to Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA that is maintained by a Commonly Controlled Entity (other than Holdings, the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries) (a “Commonly Controlled Plan”) merely by virtue of being treated as a single employer under Title IV of ERISA with the sponsor of such plan that would reasonably be likely to have a Material Adverse Effect and result in a direct obligation of Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to pay money.

Documents required to be delivered pursuant to this Section 6.1 may be delivered by posting such documents electronically with notice of such posting to the Administrative Agent and if so posted, shall be deemed to have been delivered on the date on which such documents are posted on the Borrower’s behalf on IntraLinks/IntraAgency or another relevant website, if any, to which each Lender and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent).

6.2 Certificates; Other Information. Furnish to the Administrative Agent for delivery to each Lender, or, in the case of clause (g), to the relevant Lender:

6.4 Conduct of Business and Maintenance of Existence, etc.; Compliance. (a) Preserve, renew and keep in full force and effect its corporate or other existence and take all reasonable action to maintain all rights, privileges and franchises necessary or desirable in the normal conduct of its business, except, in each case, as otherwise permitted by Section 7.4 or except to the extent that failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and (b) comply with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that failure to comply therewith would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Maintain insurance with financially sound and reputable insurance companies on all its material Property in at least such amounts and against at least such risks as are usually insured against in the same general area by companies engaged in the same or a similar business. All such insurance shall, to the extent customary (but in any event, not including business interruption insurance and personal injury insurance) name the Administrative Agent (or its agent or bailee, pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement) as insured party or loss payee.

the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable in each case without presentment, demand, protest or other requirement of any kind each of which are expressly waived by each Loan Party.

8.2 Specified Equity Contributions. For purposes of determining compliance with Section 7.1 only (and not any other provision of this Agreement, including any such other provision that utilizes a calculation of Consolidated EBITDA) any equity contribution (other than Disqualified Capital Stock) made by Holdings or any of the other direct or indirect equityholders of the Borrower to the Borrower on or after the Closing Date and on or prior to the day that is 10 Business Days after the day on which financial statements are required to be delivered for such fiscal quarter pursuant to Section 6.1 shall, at the request of the Borrower made at the time of such contribution, be included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA solely for the purposes of determining compliance with such financial covenants at the end of such fiscal quarter and any subsequent period that includes such fiscal quarter (any such equity contribution so included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA, a “Specified Equity Contribution”); provided that, (a) there shall be no more than (i) two quarters in each four consecutive fiscal quarter period and (ii) four quarters during the term of this Agreement in respect of which a Specified Equity Contribution is made, (b) the amount of any Specified Equity Contribution shall be no more than the amount required to cause the Borrower to be in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants specified above after giving pro forma effect to the application of proceeds required by clause (d) below, (c) all Specified Equity Contributions shall be disregarded for purposes of determining any baskets with respect to the covenants contained in the applicable Loan Document, for purposes of determining pricing and for any other purpose, and may not be used to make a restricted payment and (d) the proceeds of all Specified Equity Contributions will be applied as a mandatory prepayment to the Term Facilities (and, solely for purposes of calculating compliance with the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio for such fiscal quarter, such prepayment shall be deemed to have been received as of the last date of such fiscal quarter).

If, after the making of the Specified Equity Contribution and the recalculations of Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Total Net Leverage pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of Section 7.1, the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of such covenant as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable Event of Default that had occurred shall be deemed cured.

9.1 Appointment. RBC Capital Markets, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Mizuho Bank, Ltd. are each hereby appointed as Co-Syndication Agents hereunder, and each Lender hereby authorizes each of RBC Capital Markets, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Mizuho Bank, Ltd. to act as Co-Syndication Agents in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents. Barclays Bank is hereby appointed the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby

authorizes Barclays Bank to act as the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms hereof and the other Loan Documents. The provisions of this Section 9 (other than as expressly provided herein) are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders and no Loan Party shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions of this Section 9 (other than as expressly provided herein). In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Loan Document, each of the Lead Arrangers and the Co-Syndication Agents are named as such for recognition purposes only, and in their respective capacities as such shall have no duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; it being understood and agreed that each of the Lead Arrangers and the Co-Syndication Agents shall be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of the Agents provided herein and in the other Loan Documents and all of the other benefits of this Section 9.

9.2 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may execute any of its duties under the applicable Loan Documents by or through any of its branches, sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Neither Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in-fact selected by it with reasonable care. All of the rights, benefits, and privileges (including the exculpatory and indemnification provisions of Section 9.4 and of Section 9.8) shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities as sub-agent as if such sub-agent and Affiliates were named herein. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to each sub-agent appointed by the Administrative Agent such sub-agent shall only have obligations to the Administrative Agent and not to any Loan Party, Lender or any other Person and no Loan Party, Lender or any other Person shall have any rights, directly or indirectly, as a third party beneficiary or otherwise, against such subagent.

9.3 Powers and Duties. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent to take such action on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated or granted to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers, rights and remedies as are reasonably incidental thereto. In the event that any obligations (other than the Obligations) are permitted to be incurred hereunder and secured by Liens permitted to be incurred hereunder on all or a portion of the Collateral, each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into intercreditor agreements, subordination agreements and amendments to the Security Documents to reflect such arrangements on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under the agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

9.4 Exculpatory Provisions. Neither any Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any

action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party a party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder or for the financial condition or business affairs of any Loan Party or any other Person liable for the payment of any Obligations. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party.

9.5 Reliance by the Agents. The Agents shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agents. The Agents may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Agents shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under the applicable Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of any Facility) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agents shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under the applicable Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of any Facility), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans.

9.6 Notice of Default. Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless such Agent has received written notice from a Lender, Holdings or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that an Agent receives such a notice, such Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Agents shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of any Facility); provided that unless and until such Agent shall have received such directions, such Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

9.7 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, 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 the applicable Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agents hereunder, the Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, Property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of either Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

9.8 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 9.8 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 9.8 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

9.9 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the applicable Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.

9.10 Successor Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent shall have the right to resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, effective upon appointment of a successor in the manner contemplated by this Section 9.10(a). The Administrative Agent shall have the right to appoint a financial institution to act as the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent hereunder reasonably acceptable the Borrower (provided that Borrower approval shall not be required if an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(f) has occurred and is continuing) and the Required Lenders, and the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective on the earlier of (i) the acceptance of such successor the Administrative Agent by the Borrower (if applicable) and the Required Lenders or (ii) the 60th day after such notice of resignation. Upon any such notice of resignation, if a successor to the Administrative Agent has not already been appointed by the retiring Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Borrower, to appoint a successor to the Administrative Agent reasonably acceptable to the Borrower (provided that Borrower approval shall not be required if an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(f) has occurred and is continuing). If neither Required Lenders nor the Administrative Agent have appointed a successor Administrative Agent by the 60th day after such notice of resignation, such resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Required Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above; provided, that until a successor to the Administrative Agent is so appointed by Required Lenders or the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent, by notice to the Borrower and Required Lenders, may retain its role as the Collateral Agent under any Security Document. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor to the Administrative Agent, that successor to the Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor to the Administrative Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held under the Security Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor to the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor to the Administrative Agent such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor of the Administrative Agent of the security interests created under the Security Documents, whereupon such retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. Except as provided above, any resignation of Barclays Bank or its successor as the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.10 shall also constitute the resignation of Barclays Bank or its successor as the Collateral Agent. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 and of Section 10.5 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent hereunder. Except as provided above, any successor to the Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to this Section 9.10, upon its acceptance of such appointment, becomes the successor to the Collateral Agent for all purposes hereunder. If Barclays Bank or its successor as the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.10 has

resigned as the Administrative Agent but retained its role as the Collateral Agent and no successor the Collateral Agent has become the Collateral Agent pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence within thirty (30) days of such resignation, Barclays Bank or its successor may resign as the Collateral Agent upon notice to the Borrower and Required Lenders at any time.

(b) The Collateral Agent may resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to Lenders and the Borrower, effective upon appointment of a successor in the manner contemplated in this Section 9.10(b).

Upon any such notice of resignation, if a successor to the Collateral Agent has not already been appointed by the Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders shall have the right, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to appoint a successor Collateral Agent. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Collateral Agent by the date that is 60 days following a retiring Collateral Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Required Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Collateral Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, that the successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Security Documents, and the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder or under the Security Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Security Documents and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created under the Security Documents, whereupon such retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the Security Documents.

become effective, unless otherwise specified by the Collateral Agent in its notice of resignation, on the earlier of (i) the successor Collateral Agent’s acceptance of such appointment or (ii) the effective date of the applicable intercreditor arrangements. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Collateral Agent by the effective date of the applicable intercreditor arrangements (or such later date as specified in the notice of resignation), the retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Required Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Collateral Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Collateral Agent, the successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Security Documents without the consent of the Borrower, the Lenders or any other Agent hereunder, and the retiring Collateral Agent under this Agreement shall promptly (i) transfer to such successor Collateral Agent all sums, Securities and other items of Collateral held hereunder or under the Security Documents, together with all records and other documents necessary or appropriate in connection with the performance of the duties of the successor Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the Security Documents and (ii) execute and deliver to such successor Collateral Agent or otherwise authorize the filing of such amendments to financing statements, and take such other actions, as may be necessary or appropriate in connection with the assignment to such successor Collateral Agent of the security interests created under the Security Documents, whereupon such retiring Collateral Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the Security Documents. Each party hereto agrees to execute and deliver any waivers or amendments with respect to any Loan Document to which it is a party that the retiring Collateral Agent reasonably determines is necessary in connection its resignation pursuant to this Section 9.10(c). After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Collateral Agent, the provisions of this Agreement and the Security Documents shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Agreement or the Security Documents while it was the Collateral Agent hereunder.

9.11 Authorization to Release Liens and Guarantees. The Collateral Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to effect any release or subordination of Liens or Guarantee Obligations contemplated by Section 10.15, subject to the Intercreditor Agreement.

9.12 Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Code or any other authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding tax ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.20 and without limiting or expanding the obligation of the Borrower to do so) for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise, together with all expenses incurred, including legal

101

expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such tax was 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 Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The agreements in this Section 9.12 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Amendments and Waivers. (a) Subject to Section 2.25, neither this Agreement, any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1. The Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, or, with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent (and Collateral Agent as applicable) and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights or obligations of the Agents, the Lenders or of the Loan Parties or their Subsidiaries hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as the Required Lenders or the Agents may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (1) (i) forgive or reduce the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan, extend the scheduled date or reduce the amount of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest, fee or premium payable hereunder (except (A) in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the consent of the Required Lenders) and (B) that any amendment or modification of defined terms used in the financial ratios in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (i)) or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Lender’s Commitment, in each case without the written consent of each Lender (including any Defaulting Lender) directly and adversely affected thereby; (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this paragraph (a) of this Section 10.1 without the written consent of all Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender); (iii) reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release or subordinate the Liens on all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from their obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case without the written consent of all Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender); (iv) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Facility Lenders with respect to any Facility without the written consent of all Lenders (other than any Defaulting Lender)under such Facility; (v) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 without the consent of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent or any provision of any Loan Document as the same applies to the rights and obligations of any Agent, in each case, without the written consent of each Agent directly and adversely affected thereby; and (2) subject to the foregoing clause (1), disproportionately affect a Defaulting Lender without the

102

written consent of such Defaulting Lender. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Agents and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders and the Agents shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing unless limited by the terms of such waiver; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Agents, Holdings and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement (it being understood that no Lender shall have any obligation to provide or to commit to provide all or any portion of any such additional credit facility) and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately, after the effectiveness of any such amendment (or amendment and restatement), the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Majority Facility Lenders, as applicable.

(c) In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, Holdings, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term Loans of any Tranche (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder (“Replacement Term Loans”); provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (b) the interest rate applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Interest Rate applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, (c) the weighted average life to maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing and (d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.

(d) Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, if following the Closing Date, (i) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (ii) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly agreed to make adjustments to this Agreement necessary in order to reflect a change in the financial reporting convention pursuant to Section 7.11, then in each case the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the

103

Required Lenders within five Business Days following receipt of notice thereof; it being understood that posting such amendment electronically on IntraLinks/IntraAgency or another relevant website with notice of such posting by the Administrative Agent to the Required Lenders shall be deemed adequate receipt of notice of such amendment.

(e) Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender consent is required to effect any amendment, modification or supplement to the Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement or in any document pertaining to any Indebtedness permitted hereby that is permitted to be secured by the Collateral, including any Incremental Loan, for the purpose of adding the holders of such Indebtedness (or their representatives) as a party thereto and otherwise causing such Indebtedness to be subject thereto, in each case as contemplated by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or such other intercreditor agreement or arrangement permitted under this Agreement, as applicable (it being understood that any such amendment or supplement may make such other changes to the applicable intercreditor agreement as, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, are required to effectuate the foregoing and; provided that such other changes are not adverse, in any material respect (taken as a whole), to the interests of the Lenders); provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

10.2 Notices. (a) All notices, requests and demands to or upon the respective parties hereto to be effective shall be in writing (including by telecopy), and, unless otherwise expressly provided herein, shall be deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered, or three Business Days after being deposited in the mail, postage prepaid, or, in the case of telecopy notice or other electronic transmission, when received, addressed as follows in the case of Holdings, the Borrower, the Agents, and as set forth in an administrative questionnaire delivered to the Administrative Agent in the case of the Lenders, or to such other address as may be hereafter notified by the respective parties hereto:

provided that any notice, request or demand to or upon the Agents, the Lenders, Holdings or the Borrower shall not be effective until received.

(b) Notices and other communications to the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Section 2 unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. The Agents, Holdings or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Indemnitee will be responsible or liable to the Borrower or any other Person or entity for damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through internet, electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems except to the extent such damages have resulted from the bad faith, willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee or any of its affiliates or controlling persons or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents or members of any of the foregoing (to the extent determined by a final, non-appealable judgment a court of competent jurisdiction).

10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder.

10.5 Payment of Expenses; Indemnification. Except with respect to Taxes which are addressed solely in Section 2.20, the Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse each Agent for all of its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the syndication of the Facilities (other than fees payable to syndicate members) and the development, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith and any amendment, supplement or modification thereto, and, as to the Agents only, the administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees and

106

disbursements and other charges of a single firm of counsel to the Agents (plus one firm of specialist counsel and, in each case, one firm of local counsel per material jurisdiction as may reasonably be necessary in connection with collateral matters) in connection with all of the foregoing, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender and each Agent for all their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of any rights under this Agreement or in a bankruptcy case or insolvency proceeding, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including the documented fees and disbursements of a single firm of counsel (and, if necessary, a single firm of specialist counsel and, in each case, a single firm of local counsel per material jurisdiction as may reasonably be necessary, for the Agents and the Lenders, taken as a whole) (and, in each case, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest another firm of counsel for such affected Indemnitee), and (c) to pay, indemnify or reimburse each Lender, each Agent and each Lead Arranger in any capacity to which it may have been appointed by the Borrower in connection with the Refinancing and each of their respective affiliates, and each of their respective officers, partners, directors, employees, trustees, advisors, agents, sub-agents, representatives, attorneys and controlling Persons, as well as the respective heirs, successors and assigns of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnitee”) for, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against, any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, costs, expenses or disbursements, joint or several, arising out of any actions, judgments or suits of any kind or nature whatsoever, arising out of or in connection with any claim, action or proceeding (including any investigations or inquiries) relating to or otherwise with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of the Engagement Letter, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans, the transmission of information or other materials through the internet, electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Properties and the fees and disbursements and other charges of legal counsel in connection with actions or proceedings (including any inquiry or investigation) or claim (including in connection with the enforcement of the indemnification obligations set forth herein), whether or not any Indemnitee is a party to any action, suit, proceeding or claim out of which any such expenses arise, by any Indemnitee against Holdings, the Borrower, the Guarantors, any of their respective Affiliates or any other Person hereunder (all the foregoing in this clause (c), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that, neither Holdings nor the Borrower shall have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Persons (to the extent determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), (ii) a material breach of the Loan Documents by such Indemnitee or its Related Persons or (iii) disputes solely among Indemnitees or their Related Persons (it being understood that this clause (iii) shall not apply to the indemnification of an Agent or Lead Arranger in a suit involving an Agent or Lead Arranger in its capacity as such). For purposes hereof, a “Related Person” of an Indemnitee means (i) if the Indemnitee is any Agent or any of its affiliates or their respective officers, partners, directors, employees, agents, representatives, attorneys and controlling Persons, any of such Agent and its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and controlling Persons, and (ii) if the Indemnitee is any Lender or any of its affiliates or

107

their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, trustees, and controlling Persons, any of such Lender and its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, trustees, and controlling Persons. All amounts due under this Section 10.5 shall be due and payable promptly after receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor. Statements payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 10.5 shall be submitted to the Borrower at the address thereof set forth in Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section 10.5 shall survive repayment of the Obligations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each Loan Party hereby waives, any claim against each Lender, each Agent, Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and Holdings and Borrower hereby waives, releases and agrees not to ▇▇▇ upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 10.6.

(a)(i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may, in compliance with applicable law, assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (other than to any Disqualified Institution), all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(A) the Borrower; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to (i) a Lender or (ii) in the case of an assignment of Term Loans, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund (as defined below) or (iii) if an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(f) has occurred and is continuing, any other Person, provided further the Borrower may withhold its consent to any assignment if such assignment would require the Borrower to make any additional filing with any Governmental Authority or qualify any Loan or Note under the laws of any foreign jurisdiction and the Borrower shall be entitled to request and receive such information and assurances as it may reasonably request from any Lender or any Eligible Assignee to determine whether any such filing or qualification is required or whether any assignment is otherwise in accordance with applicable law; provided, further, that, solely with respect to Term Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment requiring its consent unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within fifteen (15) Business Days after having received notice thereof; and

108

(B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment to (x) a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (y) Holdings, the Borrower or a Subsidiary of the Borrower in connection with a purchase of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(b); and

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans under any Facility, the amount of the Commitments or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of (I) the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or (II) if earlier, the “trade date” (if any) specified in such Assignment and Assumption) shall not be less than $1,000,000, in the case of the Second Lien Term Facility or the New Term Facility, unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that (1) no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) or 8.1(f) has occurred and is continuing and (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

(B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (or, at the Borrower’s request, manually) together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent); provided that (i) only one such fee shall be payable in the case of contemporaneous assignments to or by two or more related Approved Funds and (ii) such fee does not apply to assignments by the Lead Arrangers;

(C) the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire and all applicable tax forms; provided that the provisions of this clause (ii) shall not apply to an assignment to Holdings or a Subsidiary of the Borrower in connection with a purchase of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(b); and

(D) the Eligible Assignee, if a Sponsor Affiliated Lender, (1) after giving effect to such assignment, to all other assignments and participations with all Sponsor Affiliated Lenders and to all Term Loans purchased and cancelled pursuant to Section 2.11(b), the aggregate principal amount of all Loans and Commitments then held by all Sponsor Affiliated Lenders (whether by assignment, participation or other derivative transaction) shall not exceed 25% of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding (2) shall execute a waiver in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent that it shall have no right whatsoever so long as such Person is a Sponsor Affiliated Lender (i) to consent to any amendment, modification,

109

waiver, consent or other such action with respect to any of the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or to direct or require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, (ii) to require any Agent or other Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iii) otherwise vote on any matter related to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iv) to attend (or receive any notice of) any meeting, conference call or correspondence with any Agent or Lender or receive any information from any Agent or Lender, (v) to have access to the Platform (including, without limitation, that portion of the Platform that has been designated for “private-side” Lenders) or (vi) to make or bring any claim, in its capacity as Lender, against the Agent or any Lender with respect to the duties and obligations of such Persons under the Loan Documents, but no amendment, modification or waiver shall deprive any Sponsor Affiliated Lender of its share of any payments which the Lenders are entitled to share on a pro rata basis hereunder and (3) shall agree that it shall not exercise any right to reject a mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.12 that would otherwise be available with respect to such Loans. By purchasing or being assigned the Loans and by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement, each Sponsor Affiliated Lender acknowledges and agrees that the Loans owned by it shall be non-voting under sections 1126 and 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code in the event that any proceeding thereunder shall be instituted by or against Borrower or any other Loan Party.

For the purposes of this Section 10.6, “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) (i) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender or (ii) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that is the investment advisor to a Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to make assignments under this Agreement to any Disqualified Institution.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be subject to the obligations under and entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.19, 2.20 and 10.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 10.6 (and will be required to comply therewith).

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption

110

delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement (and the entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error for such purposes), notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Holdings, the Borrower or any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, the Eligible Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Eligible Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder) and all applicable tax forms, the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and promptly record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c)(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, in compliance with applicable law, sell participations (other than to any Disqualified Institution) to one or more Eligible Assignees (a “Participant”), in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (D) if such Participant is a Sponsor Affiliated Lender the requirements of Section 10.6(b)(ii)(D) shall be complied with. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of Section 10.1 and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 10.6, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.19 and 2.20 (if such Participant agrees to have related obligations thereunder) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6. Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any

111

Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form for United States federal income tax purposes. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender, each Loan Party and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to sell participations under this Agreement to any Disqualified Institutions.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.19 or 2.20 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent to such greater amounts. No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.20 unless such Participant complies with Section 2.20(d) or (e), as (and to the extent) applicable, as if such Participant were a Lender.

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of or notice to the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 10.6 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Eligible Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring the same (in the case of an assignment, following surrender by the assigning Lender of all Notes representing its assigned interests).

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries may acquire by assignment, participation or otherwise any right to or interest in any of the Commitments or Loans hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(b) or through open market purchases; provided that upon the purchase by Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower of any Term Loans, automatically and without the necessity of any notice or any other action all principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Term Loans so repurchased shall be deemed to have been paid for all purposes and shall be cancelled and no longer outstanding for all purposes of this Agreement and all other Loan Documents.

(g) Each Lender acknowledges that Affiliates of Holdings, including the Sponsors or entities controlled by the Sponsors, are Eligible Assignees hereunder and may purchase Loans and/or Commitments hereunder from Lenders from time to time, subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement.

112

10.7 Adjustments; Set-off. (a) Except to the extent that this Agreement provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by setoff, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8.1(f), or otherwise) in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Obligations, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Obligations, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) after the expiration of any cure or grace periods, to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final but excluding trust accounts), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any affiliate, branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or electronic (i.e., “pdf”) transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

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

10.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of Holdings, the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. With the exception of those terms contained in Sections 2 and 4 of the Engagement Letter dated April 29, 2014, among the Borrower and the Lead Arrangers

113

(the “Engagement Letter”) which by the terms of the Engagement Letter remain in full force and effect (the “Surviving Terms”) all of the Initial Lenders’ and their Affiliates’ obligations shall terminate and be superseded by the Loan Documents.

10.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

10.12 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its Property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to it at its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto; and

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to ▇▇▇ in any other jurisdiction.

10.13 Acknowledgments. Each of Holdings and the Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

(b) each Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates may have economic interests that conflict with those of Holdings or the Borrower

(c) neither the Agents nor any Lender has any advisory or fiduciary relationship with or duty to either of Holdings or the Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Agents and Lenders, on one hand, and Holdings and the Borrower, on the

114

other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor (irrespective of whether any Agent, Lender or any of their respective Affiliates has advised or is currently advising the Borrower on other matters); and

(d) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among Holdings, the Borrower and the Lenders.

10.14 Confidentiality. The Agents and the Lenders agree to treat any and all information, regardless of the medium or form of communication, that is disclosed, provided or furnished, directly or indirectly, by or on behalf of Holdings or any of its affiliates in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby whether furnished before or after the Closing Date (“Confidential Information”), strictly confidential and not to use Confidential Information for any purpose other than negotiating, making available, syndicating, evaluating and administering this Agreement (the “Agreed Purposes”). Without limiting the foregoing, each Agent and each Lender agrees to treat any and all Confidential Information with adequate means to preserve its confidentiality, and each Agent and each Lender agrees not to disclose Confidential Information, at any time, in any manner whatsoever, directly or indirectly, to any other Person whomsoever, except (1) to its directors, officers, employees, counsel, advisors, trustees, affiliates and other representatives (collectively, the “Representatives”), to the extent necessary to permit such Representatives to assist in connection with the Agreed Purposes (it being understood that the Representatives to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and instructed to keep such Confidential Information confidential), (2) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any pledgee referred to in Section 10.6(d) or any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Loans or any participations therein or by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations (provided, such pledgees, assignees, transferees, participants, counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 10.14 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 10.14), (3) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority having or purporting to have jurisdiction over it, (4) in response to any order of any Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, (5) to the extent reasonably required or necessary, in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding relating to the Facilities, (6) that has been publicly disclosed other than in breach of this Section 10.14, (7) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or in connection with examinations or audits of such Lender, or (8) to the extent reasonably required or necessary, in connection with the exercise of any remedy under the Loan Documents. Each Agent and each Lender acknowledges that (i) Confidential Information includes information that is not otherwise publicly available and that such non-public information may constitute confidential business information which is proprietary to the Borrower and (ii) the Borrower has advised the Agents and the Lenders that it is relying on the Confidential Information for its success and would not disclose the Confidential Information to the Agents and the Lenders without the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement. All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by the

115

Borrower or the Administrative Agent pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its Affiliates and their related parties or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender acknowledges that it has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable law, including Federal and state securities laws.

10.15 Release of Collateral and Guarantee Obligations; Subordination of Liens. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon request of the Borrower in connection with any Disposition of Property permitted by the Loan Documents, the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized by each Secured Party and shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any contingent or indemnification obligations not then due) take such actions as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower and execute any documents or instruments to release its security interest in any Collateral being Disposed of in such Disposition, and to release any Guarantee Obligations under any Loan Document of any Person being Disposed of in such Disposition, in each case, to the extent necessary to permit consummation of such Disposition in accordance with the Loan Documents. In connection with any such request, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at least five Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release (or such shorter period agreed to by the Administrative Agent), a written request for release identifying the relevant Collateral being Disposed of in such Disposition in reasonable detail together with a certification by the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that the proceeds of such Disposition will be applied in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any representation, warranty or covenant contained in any Loan Document relating to any such Property so Disposed of (other than Property Disposed of to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries) shall no longer be deemed to be repeated once such Property is so Disposed of.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, when all Obligations (other than any contingent or indemnification obligations not then due) have been paid in full and all Commitments have terminated or expired, upon request of Holdings or the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all Guarantee Obligations under any Loan Document, whether or not on the date of such release there may be outstanding Obligations in respect of contingent or indemnification obligations not then due. Any such release of Guarantee Obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such Guarantee Obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any Guarantor or any substantial part of its Property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon request of Holdings or the Borrower in connection with any Liens

116

permitted by the Loan Documents, the Collateral Agent is hereby authorized by each Secured Party and shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender) take such actions as shall be required to subordinate the Lien on any Collateral to any Lien permitted to be senior to the Lien of the Collateral Agent under Section 7.3. In connection with any such request, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at least five Business Days prior to the date of the proposed subordination (or such shorter period agreed to by the Administrative Agent), a written request for subordination identifying the relevant Lien permitted under Section 7.3 in reasonable detail, together with a certification by the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

10.16 Accounting Changes. In the event that any Accounting Change (as defined below) shall occur and such change results in a change in the method of calculation of financial ratios, standards or terms in this Agreement, then the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions of this Agreement so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the Borrower’s financial condition shall be the same after such Accounting Changes as if such Accounting Changes had not been made. Until such time as such an amendment shall have been executed and delivered by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, all financial ratios, standards and terms in this Agreement shall continue to be calculated or construed as if such Accounting Changes had not occurred. “Accounting Changes” refers to changes in accounting principles required by the promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or, if applicable, the SEC.

10.17 WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF HOLDINGS, THE BORROWER, THE AGENTS AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

10.18 USA PATRIOT ACT. Each Lender hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Publ. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Loan Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act.

10.19 Effect of Certain Inaccuracies. In the event that any financial statement delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or (b) or any Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 6.2(b) is inaccurate, then (i) promptly following the correction of such financial statement by the Borrower, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected financial statement and a corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period. This Section 10.19 shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder, including under Section 8.1.

10.20 Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or

117

fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Borrower shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and Borrower to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Borrower.

10.21 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither any Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or any Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

10.22 Intercreditor Agreement.

Each Lender hereunder (a) acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Intercreditor Agreement, (b) agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, (c) authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement as Second Lien Administrative Agent and on behalf of such Lender and (d) hereby consents to the subordination of the Liens securing the Obligations on the terms set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement. The foregoing provisions are intended as an inducement to the lenders under the Second Lien Loan Documents and the other Second Lien Loan Documents to extend credit to the Loan Parties and such lenders are intended third party beneficiaries of such provisions. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement shall control.

No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights hereunder on the part of the holder hereof shall operate as a waiver of such rights.

This Promissory Note has been pledged by each Payee to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as security for such Payee’s Obligations, if any, under the Credit Agreement, the Second Lien Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Payee is a party. Each Payor acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties may exercise all the rights of the Payees under this Promissory Note and will not be subject to any abatement, reduction, recoupment, defense, setoff or counterclaim available to such Payor.

J-1

Each Payee agrees that any and all claims of such Payee against any Payor or any endorser of this Promissory Note, or against any of their respective properties, shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the Obligations until all of the Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent and indemnification obligations not yet due and owing); provided, that each Payor may make payments to the applicable Payee so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and provided, further, that all loans and advances made by a Payee pursuant to this Promissory Note shall be received by the applicable Payor subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Notwithstanding any right of any Payee to ask, demand, ▇▇▇ for, take or receive any payment from any Payor, all rights, Liens and security interests of such Payee, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any Payor (whether constituting part of the security or collateral given to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to secure payment of all or any part of the Obligations or otherwise) shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in such assets. Except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement, the Payees shall have no right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon, or exercise any other remedy in respect of, any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until all of the Obligations shall have been paid in full (other than contingent and indemnification obligations not yet due and owing).

Each Payee irrevocably authorizes, empowers and appoints the Administrative Agent as such Payee’s attorney-in-fact (which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable) to demand, ▇▇▇ for, collect and receive every such payment or distribution and give acquittance therefor and to make and present for and on behalf of such Payee such proofs of claim and take such other action, in the Administrative Agent’s own name or in the name of such Payee or otherwise, as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the enforcement of this Promissory Note. Each Payee also agrees to execute, verify, deliver and file any such proofs of claim in respect of the Payor Indebtedness requested by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may vote such proofs of claim in any such proceeding (and the applicable Payee shall not be entitled to withdraw such vote), receive and collect any and all dividends or other payments or disbursements made on Payor Indebtedness in whatever form the same may be paid or issued and apply the same on account of any of the Obligations. Except as otherwise expressly permitted under the Credit Agreement, should any payment, distribution, security or other investment property or instrument or any proceeds thereof be received by any Payee upon or with respect to Payor Indebtedness owing to such Payee prior to such time as the Obligations have been paid in full (other than contingent and indemnification obligations not yet due and owing) and while an Event of Default under Sections 8.1(a) or (f) of the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, such Payee shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in precisely the form received (except for the endorsement or assignment of such Payee where necessary or advisable in the Administrative Agent’s judgment), for application to any of the Obligations, due or not due, and, until so delivered, the same shall be segregated from the other assets of such Payee and held in trust by such Payee as the property of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in any other Loan Document or in any such promissory note or other instrument, this Promissory Note (i) replaces and supersedes any and all promissory notes or other instruments which create or evidence any loans or advances made on or before the date hereof by any Group Member to any other Group Member and (ii) shall not be deemed replaced, superseded or in any way modified by any promissory note or other instrument entered into on or after the date hereof which purports to create or evidence any loan or advance by any Group Member to any other Group Member.

J-2

THIS PROMISSORY NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS PROMISSORY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

From time to time after the date hereof, additional Subsidiaries of the Group Members may become parties hereto by executing a counterpart signature page to this Promissory Note (each additional Subsidiary, an “Additional Payor”). Upon delivery of such counterpart signature page to the Payees, notice of which is hereby waived by the other Payors, each Additional Payor shall be a Payor and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Payor were an original signatory hereof. Each Payor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Payor hereunder. This Promissory Note shall be fully effective as to any Payor that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other Person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Payor hereunder.

This Promissory Note may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Payor has caused this Intercompany Subordinated Demand Promissory Note to be executed and delivered by its proper and duly authorized officer as of the date set forth above.
