CREDIT AGREEMENT

This CREDIT AGREEMENT (including all exhibits and schedules hereto, as the same may be amended, modified and/or restated from time to time, this “Agreement”) is entered into as of October 28, 2015 among (1) JUS-COM, INC., an Indiana corporation (the “Borrower”), (2) the other Persons party hereto that are designated as Credit Parties, (3) LATERAL JUSCOM FEEDER LLC (in its individual capacity, “Lateral”), as Administrative Agent for the several lenders from time to time party to this Agreement (each, individually, a “Lender” and, collectively, the “Lenders”), and (4) such Lenders.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested, and the Lenders have agreed to make available to the Borrower, term loans, upon and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;

WHEREAS, FTE Networks, Inc., a Nevada corporation and the holder (indirectly) of all of the Stock and Stock Equivalents of the Borrower (“Holdings”), and the other Credit Parties will derive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the entry by the Borrower into this Agreement and are willing to guaranty all of the Obligations of the Borrower hereunder; and

WHEREAS, the Borrower, Holdings and the other Credit Parties desire to secure all of the Borrower’s Obligations under the Loan Documents, and the guaranty by the other Credit Parties of Borrower’s Obligations under the Loan Documents, by granting to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in and lien upon substantially all of its Property (other than Excluded Property).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Article I - THE TERM LOAN

1.1 Amounts and Terms of Term Loan Commitments.

(a) The Initial Term Loans.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, each Lender, severally and not jointly, agrees to make term loans to the Borrower on the Closing Date (the “Initial Term Loans”) in the amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name in Schedule 1.1(a) under the heading “Initial Term Loan Commitment” (such amount being referred to herein as such Lender’s “ITL Commitment”).

(ii) Amounts borrowed as the Initial Term Loans which are repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed and no refunds of, or credits for, such payments shall be required.

(b) The Additional Term Loans.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, each Lender, severally and not jointly, agrees to make term loans to the Borrower on one Business Day during the period from the Business Day immediately following the Closing Date through the ATL Commitment Termination Date (the “Additional Term Loans”), in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name in Schedule 1.1(b) under the heading “Additional Term Loan Commitments” (as the same may be reduced from time to time in accordance with this Agreement) or in the Assignment pursuant to which such Lender became a Lender hereunder (as the same may be reduced from time to time in accordance with this Agreement) (in either case, such amount being referred to herein as such Lender’s “ATL Commitment;” and, the ITL Commitments and the ATL Commitments are sometimes referred to collectively as the “Term Loan Commitments”).

(ii) Amounts borrowed as the Additional Term Loans which are repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed and no refunds of, or credits for, such payments shall be required.

(iii) The commitment of the Lenders with an ATL Commitment to fund Additional Term Loans is conditioned on the satisfaction of the following conditions:

(A) the requested Borrowing date of the applicable Additional Term Loans is a Business Day;

(B) no Default or Event of Default shall exist at the time of, or after giving effect to, the funding of the requested Additional Term Loans;

(C) each representation or warranty by any Credit Party contained herein or in any other Loan Document is true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifier contained therein) as of the date the Additional Term Loans are proposed to be funded, except to the extent that such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date (in which event such representations and warranties were true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifier contained therein) as of such earlier date);

(D) the Administrative Agent shall have received on a date which is at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree) prior to the date the requested Additional Term Loans are proposed to be funded, a Notice of Borrowing with respect to the requested Additional Term Loans (which shall be in an aggregate principal amount not in excess of the remaining ATL Commitments; the Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the Lenders of the receipt of the Notice of Borrowing; and no more than one (1) Notice of Borrowing may be tendered requesting Additional Term Loans);

(E) the Tender Offer shall have expired in accordance with the Tender Offer Documents (as in effect on the Closing Date or otherwise as amended or waived with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent);

(F) the Administrative Agent shall have received evidence that all Senior Secured Notes properly tendered for purchase (and not withdrawn) have been accepted for purchase by Holdings in accordance with the Tender Offer Documents (as in effect on the Closing Date or otherwise as amended or waived with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent) and all other conditions set forth in the Tender Offer Documents (as in effect on the Closing Date or otherwise as amended or waived with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent) to Holdings’ obligation to purchase any Senior Secured Notes properly tendered (and not withdrawn) have been satisfied (or waived with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent);

(G) the Administrative Agent shall have received evidence that contemporaneously with the funding of the Additional Term Loans Holdings shall have commenced a consent solicitation pursuant to which Holdings shall solicit the consent of the holders of its Stock and Stock Equivalents to amend and\or restate the certificate of incorporation (and any related designations of rights and preferences related to preferred Stock) of Holdings, all in form, scope and substance (and pursuant to documentation) satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; and

(H) the Additional Lateral Stock shall have been issued to the Lenders.

(c) The parties hereto agree that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Term Loan hereunder, nor shall any Term Loan Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, and (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall excuse any other Lender from its obligations hereunder.

1.2 Evidence of Term Loans; Term Notes.

(a) The Initial Term Loan made by each Lender is evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Lender, an ITL Note payable to such Lender and delivered to such Lender by the Borrower in an amount equal to the unpaid balance of the Initial Term Loan held by such Lender.

(b) The Additional Term Loans made by each Lender with an ATL Commitment are evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Lender, an ATL Note payable to such Lender in an amount equal to the unpaid balance of the Additional Term Loans held by such Lender.

1.3 Interest.

(a) Subject to subsections 1.3(d) and 1.3(e), the Term Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate. All computations of fees and interest payable under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. Interest and fees shall accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.

(b) Interest on each Term Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date. Subject to the following proviso, all accrued but unpaid interest payable on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid in cash; provided, however, that a portion of such interest at a rate equal to the Applicable PIK Component of the Applicable Rate for the applicable period during which the corresponding Applicable PIK Component was in effect shall be paid-in-kind (each such addition, a “Principal Increase”) unless either (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (in which case all interest due on any applicable Interest Payment Date shall be paid in full in cash), or (ii) the Borrower irrevocably notifies the Administrative Agent in writing at least five (5) Business Days, but not more than twenty (20) Business Days, prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date of its unconditional commitment to pay all interest otherwise due and payable on such date in cash (in which case all interest due on the applicable Interest Payment Date shall be paid in full in cash). Principal Increases shall be considered a principal obligation outstanding in respect of the Term Loans for all purposes hereunder, including, without limitation, calculation of interest on subsequent Interest Payment Dates.

(d) At the election of the Required Lenders while any Event of Default exists (or automatically while any Event of Default under Section 7.1(a), 7.1(f) or 7.1(g) exists), the Borrower shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the Term Loans from and after the date of occurrence of such Event of Default, at a rate per annum which is determined by adding three percent (3.00%) per annum to the Applicable Rate. All such interest shall be payable in cash on demand of the Required Lenders.

(e) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by the respective Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest which may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event the Borrower shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law (“Maximum Lawful Rate”); provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders, is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

(f) Holdings, the Borrower and the Lenders agree (i) that the Initial Lateral Stock to be issued to the Lenders on the Closing Date has a per share value of $0.71, (ii) that as a result of the value allocated to the Initial Lateral Stock pursuant to clause (i), the Additional Lateral Stock to be issued in connection with the funding of the Additional Term Loans (which the parties agree has the same per share valued as the Initial Lateral Stock), the Principal Increase described in Section 1.3(b) hereof, and the fees contemplated by the Fee Letter, the Term Loans are deemed, for Tax purposes, to be issued with original issue discount (“OID”), as defined in Section 1273(a)(1) of the Code, (iii) that any calculation by the Borrower regarding the amount of OID for any accrual period on the Term Loans shall be subject to review and approval of the Lenders, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, and (iv) to adhere to this provision for federal income Tax purposes and not to take any action or file any Tax Return inconsistent herewith (including with respect to the amount of OID on the Term Loans as determined in accordance with the preceding clause (iii)).

1.4 Loan Accounts. The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall record on its books and records the amount of each Term Loan made, the interest rate applicable thereto, all payments of principal and interest thereon and the principal balance thereof from time to time outstanding. The Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, at its request, a loan statement setting forth such record for the immediately preceding calendar month. Such record shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive evidence of the amount of the Term Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so, or any failure to deliver such loan statement shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder (and under any Term Note) to pay any amount owing with respect to the Term Loans or provide the basis for any claim against the Administrative Agent.

1.5 Optional Prepayments and Termination of Term Loan Commitments.

(a) Optional Prepayments Generally. The Borrower may at any time on or after (but not before) October 28, 2016, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Administrative Agent) prior written notice (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, prepay the Term Loans in whole or in part in an amount greater than or equal to $100,000. Subject to Section 1.8(c), optional prepayments of the Term Loan shall be applied to prepay amounts otherwise payable in respect of the Term Loans on the Maturity Date.

(b) Notices. Notice of prepayment pursuant to clause (a) above shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof and of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such prepayment. The payment amount specified in a notice of prepayment shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Together with each prepayment under this Section 1.5, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders) in cash (i) all accrued but unpaid interest on the portion of the Term Loans to be prepaid and (ii) the corresponding Prepayment Premium.

(c) Term Loan Commitments. Each ITL Commitment shall terminate immediately following the funding of the Initial Term Loans. Each ATL Commitment shall terminate immediately following the earlier to occur of (i) the funding of any Additional Term Loans and (ii) the ATL Commitment Termination Date. The Borrower may at any time upon at least three (3) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Administrative Agent) prior written notice (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent permanently reduce the ATL Commitments; provided, that, such reductions shall be in an amount greater than or equal to $100,000. All reductions of the ATL Commitments shall be allocated pro rata among all Lenders with an ATL Commitment.

1.6 Mandatory Payments of Term Loans.

(a) Scheduled Term Loan Payments. The entire principal balance of the Term Loans, including all Principal Increases thereon, shall be due and payable in cash on the Maturity Date. In addition, the entire principal balance of the Term Loans, including all Principal Increases thereon, shall be due and payable in cash if the Tender Offer expires and Holdings fails (or is unable) to accept for purchase in accordance with the Tender Offer Documents (as in effect on the Closing Date or otherwise as amended or waived with the prior written consent of the Required Lenders) at least 80% in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes.

(b) Asset Dispositions; Events of Loss. If a Credit Party or any Subsidiary of a Credit Party shall at any time or from time to time:

(i) make a Disposition; or

(ii) suffer an Event of Loss;

then (A) the Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such proposed Disposition or Event of Loss (including the amount of the estimated Net Proceeds to be received by a Credit Party and/or such Subsidiary in respect thereof) and (B) promptly upon receipt by a Credit Party and/or such Subsidiary of the Net Proceeds of such Disposition or Event of Loss, the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, the Net Proceeds to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders as a prepayment of the Term Loans, which prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.6(d) hereof. The foregoing notwithstanding and provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, no prepayment with the Net Proceeds of a Disposition or an Event of Loss shall be required to the extent a Credit Party or such Subsidiary reinvests the Net Proceeds of such Disposition or Event of Loss in replacement assets substantially similar to the assets that were the subject of such Disposition or Event of Loss, within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such Disposition or Event of Loss, as the case may be; provided, that the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent in writing of the Borrower’s or such Subsidiary’s intent to reinvest and of the completion of such reinvestment at the time such proceeds are received and when such reinvestment occurs, respectively.

(c) Equity Issuances; Incurrence of Debt; Extraordinary Receipts. Immediately upon receipt by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party of (i) the Net Issuance Proceeds of (A) any Equity Issuance or (B) the incurrence of Indebtedness (other than Net Issuance Proceeds from the incurrence of Indebtedness permitted hereunder) or (ii) the Net Proceeds of any Extraordinary Receipts, the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such Net Issuance Proceeds or Net Proceeds, as the case may be, in each instance, for distribution to the Lenders as a prepayment of the Term Loans, which prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.6(d).

(d) Notice and Application of Prepayments; Prepayment Premium.

(i) In connection with any prepayment required under Section 1.6(b) or Section 1.6(c), the Borrower shall provide at least three (3) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Administrative Agent) prior written notice (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) of each such prepayment by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of the prepayment and the subsection pursuant to which such prepayment is being made (each, a “Prepayment Date”). Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall immediately give notice to each Lender of the prepayment, the Prepayment Date and of such Lender’s pro rata share of the prepayment. Each Lender may elect (in its sole discretion) to decline or accept, as the case may be, all (or any portion) of its pro rata share of any prepayment by giving notice of such election in writing to the Administrative Agent no later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day immediately prior to the Prepayment Date. If a Lender fails to deliver a notice of election to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above, any such failure will be deemed to constitute an acceptance of such Lender’s pro rata share of the total amount of such prepayment. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice of election, the Administrative Agent shall immediately notify the Borrowers of such election. Any amounts declined by any Lender shall be retained by the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries and may be utilized in any manner not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.

(ii) Subject to Section 1.8(c), any prepayments of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 1.6 shall be applied to prepay amounts otherwise payable in respect of the Term Loans on the Maturity Date.

(iii) Together with each payment made pursuant to Section 1.6, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders) in cash (i) all accrued but unpaid interest on the portion of the Term Loans to be prepaid and (ii) the corresponding Prepayment Premium.

(e) No Implied Consent. Provisions contained in this Section 1.6 for application of proceeds of certain transactions shall not be deemed to constitute consent of the Lenders to transactions that are not otherwise permitted by the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents.

1.7 Fees. On the date that any Term Loans are funded, the Borrower shall pay the fees contemplated to be paid pursuant to the Fee Letter.

1.8 Payments by the Borrower.

(a) Subject to Section 10.1, all payments (including prepayments) to be made by each Credit Party on account of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required hereunder shall be made without set off, recoupment, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, be made to the Administrative Agent (for the ratable account of the Persons entitled thereto) at the address for payment specified in the signature page hereof in relation to the Administrative Agent (or such other address as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify in accordance with Section 9.2), and shall be made in Dollars and by wire transfer in immediately available funds (which shall be the exclusive means of payment hereunder), no later than 12:00 p.m. on the date due. Any payment which is received by the Administrative Agent later than 12:00 p.m. may in Administrative Agent’s discretion be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. The Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application during the continuance of an Event of Default of any and all payments in respect of any Obligation and any proceeds of Collateral.

(b) If any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

(c) During the continuance of an Event of Default (and notwithstanding any direction by the Borrower to the contrary), the Administrative Agent shall upon the direction of the Required Lenders apply any and all payments received by the Administrative Agent in respect of any Obligation and all proceeds received by the Administrative Agent as a result of the exercise of its remedies under the Collateral Documents in accordance with the clauses first through sixth below. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, all proceeds of Collateral and all amounts collected or received by Administrative Agent, including all payments made by Credit Parties to Administrative Agent, after any or all of the Obligations have been accelerated (so long as such acceleration has not been rescinded), shall be applied as follows:

first, to payment of costs and expenses, including Attorney Costs, of the Administrative Agent payable or reimbursable by the Credit Parties under the Loan Documents;

second, to payment of Attorney Costs of the Lenders payable or reimbursable by the Borrower under this Agreement;

third, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the Term Loans and fees owed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders;

fourth, to payment of principal of the Term Loans then due and payable;

fifth, to all other Obligations owing to the Lenders then due and payable; and

sixth, any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to whoever may be lawfully entitled thereto.

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied to each category in numerical order until amounts in such category have been paid in full in cash prior to the application to the next succeeding category, (ii) each of the Lenders or other Persons entitled to payment shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant to the clauses set forth above, and (iii) amounts applied to the Term Loan or interest in respect thereof shall be applied pro rata between the Initial Term Loans and the Additional Term Loans.

1.9 Payments by the Lenders to the Administrative Agent; Settlement.

(a) Disbursements. Upon receipt of the proceeds of the Term Loans from the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, on behalf of Lenders, disburse funds to the Borrower.

(b) Settlements. In the case of any payment of principal or interest received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower in respect of the Term Loans prior to 12:00 p.m. on any Business Day, the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such payment on such Business Day, and, in the case of any payment of principal or interest received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower in respect of the Term Loan later than 12:00 p.m. on any Business Day, the Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such payment, and such payments shall be made by wire transfer not later than 12:00 p.m. on the next Business Day.

(i) If the Administrative Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower and such related payment is not received by the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

The subordination provisions of the documents evidencing or governing any Subordinated Indebtedness shall, in whole or in part, terminate, cease to be effective or cease to be legally valid, binding and enforceable or the Borrower (or any other Credit Party or Affiliate thereof) shall, directly or indirectly, disavow or contest in any manner the effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any of the subordination provisions governing any such Subordinated Indebtedness; or

(n) Tender Offer Documents. The Tender Offer expires and Holdings fails (or is unable) to accept for purchase in accordance with the Tender Offer Documents (as in effect on the Closing Date or otherwise as amended or waived with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent) at least 80% in aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes.

7.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default:

(a) the Administrative Agent shall at the request of the Required Lenders declare all or any portion of the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Term Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder (including, without limitation, the Prepayment Premium in respect of the portion of the principal amount of the outstanding Term Loans that have become due and payable) or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable; and/or

(b) the Administrative Agent shall at the request of the Required Lenders exercise on behalf of itself and the Lenders all rights and remedies available to it and the Lenders under the Loan Documents or applicable law;

provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 7.1(f) or 7.1(g) above (in the case of clause (i) of Section 7.1(g) upon the expiration of the sixty (60) day period mentioned therein), the obligation of each Lender to make Term Loans shall automatically terminate and the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Term Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable without further act of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

The Borrower acknowledges, and the parties hereto agree, that the Lenders have the right to maintain their investments in the Term Loans free from repayment by any Credit Party (except as herein specifically provided for), and that the provision for payment of the Prepayment Premium by the Borrower in the event that the Term Loans are prepaid or are accelerated as a result of an Event of Default, is intended to provide compensation for the deprivation of such right under such circumstances.

Holdings (and each Credit Party party hereto) agrees that a breach of Section 4.17 will cause irreparable injury to the Lateral Entities and the WP Entities, respectively, that the Lateral Entities and the WP Entities, respectively, have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that Section 4.17 shall be specifically enforceable against Holdings, and Holdings hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defense against an action for specific performance of Section 4.17.

7.3 Rights Not Exclusive. The rights provided for in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights, powers, privileges or remedies provided by law or in equity, or under any other instrument, document or agreement now existing or hereafter arising.

(c) Limited Duties. Under the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent (i) is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties (except to the limited extent provided in Section 1.4(b) with respect to the Register), with duties that are entirely administrative in nature, notwithstanding the use of the defined terms “Administrative Agent” or the terms “agent” and “collateral agent” and similar terms in any Loan Document to refer to the Administrative Agent, which terms are used for title purposes only, (ii) is not assuming any obligation under any Loan Document other than as expressly set forth therein or any role as agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender or any other Person and (iii) shall have no implied functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or other liabilities under any Loan Document, and each Secured Party by accepting the benefits of the Loan Documents hereby waives and agrees not to assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on the roles, duties and legal relationships expressly disclaimed in clauses (i) through (iii) above.

8.2 Binding Effect. Each Secured Party, by accepting the benefits of the Loan Documents, agrees that (i) any action taken by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if expressly required hereby, a greater proportion of the Lenders) in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, (ii) any action taken by the Administrative Agent in reliance upon the instructions of Required Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) and (iii) the exercise by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, where so required, such greater proportion) of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Secured Parties.

8.3 Use of Discretion

(a) No Action without Instructions. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take, or to omit to take, any action, including with respect to enforcement or collection, except any action it is required to take or omit to take (i) under any Loan Document or (ii) pursuant to instructions from the Required Lenders (or, where expressly required by the terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders).

(b) Right Not to Follow Certain Instructions. Notwithstanding clause (a) above, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take, or to omit to take, any action (i) unless, upon demand, the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification satisfactory to it from the Lenders (or, to the extent applicable and acceptable to the Administrative Agent, any other Person) against all Liabilities that, by reason of such action or omission, may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or any Related Person thereof or (ii) that is, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent or its counsel, contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Requirement of Law.

(c) Exclusive Right to Enforce Rights and Remedies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Credit Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with the Loan Documents for the benefit of all the Lenders. In the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by the Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including pursuant to section 363(k), section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), the Administrative Agent (or any Lender, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to section 363(k), section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code,) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from Required Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Administrative Agent at such sale or other disposition. The foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.11 or (iii) subject to the following paragraph, any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Credit Party under any bankruptcy or other debtor relief law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 7.2 and in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii) and (iii) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 9.11, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

In case of the pendency of any bankruptcy or other debtor relief proceeding or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Term Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Credit Party) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Term Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent allowed in such judicial proceeding and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same, and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent hereunder.

8.4 Delegation of Rights and Duties. The Administrative Agent may, upon any term or condition it specifies, delegate or exercise any of its rights, powers and remedies under, and delegate or perform any of its duties or any other action with respect to, any Loan Document by or through any trustee, co-agent, employee, attorney-in-fact and any other Person (including any Secured Party). Any such Person shall benefit from this Article VIII to the extent provided by the Administrative Agent.

8.5 Reliance and Liability.

(a) The Administrative Agent may, without incurring any liability hereunder, (i) treat the payee of any Note as its holder until such Note has been assigned in accordance with Section 9.9, (ii) rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 1.4, (iii) consult with any of its Related Persons and, whether or not selected by it, any other advisors, accountants and other experts (including advisors to, and accountants and experts engaged by, any Credit Party) and (iv) rely and act upon any document and information (including those transmitted by Electronic Transmission) and any telephone message or conversation, in each case believed by it to be genuine and transmitted, signed or otherwise authenticated by the appropriate parties.

(b) The Administrative Agent and its Related Persons shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with any Loan Document, and each Secured Party and Credit Party hereby waive and shall not assert (and the Borrower shall cause each other Credit Party not a signatory hereto to waive and agree not to assert) any right, claim or cause of action based thereon, except to the extent of liabilities resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or, as the case may be, such Related Person (each as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) in connection with the duties expressly set forth herein. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

(i) shall not be responsible or otherwise incur liability to any Lender or other Person for any action or omission taken in reliance upon the instructions of the Required Lenders or for the actions or omissions of any of its Related Persons selected with reasonable care (other than employees, officers and directors of the Administrative Agent, when acting on behalf of the Administrative Agent);

(ii) shall not be responsible to any Lender or other Person for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document;

(iii) makes no warranty or representation, and shall not be responsible, to any Lender or other Person for any statement, document, information, representation or warranty made or furnished by or on behalf of any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party in connection with any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein or any other document or information with respect to any Credit Party, whether or not transmitted or (except for documents expressly required under any Loan Document to be transmitted to the Lenders) omitted to be transmitted by the Administrative Agent, including as to completeness, accuracy, scope or adequacy thereof, or for the scope, nature or results of any due diligence performed by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Loan Documents; and

(iv) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any provision of any Loan Document, whether any condition set forth in any Loan Document is satisfied or waived, as to the financial condition of any Credit Party or as to the existence or continuation or possible occurrence or continuation of any Default or Event of Default and shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of such occurrence or continuation unless it has received a notice from the Borrower or any Lender describing such Default or Event of Default clearly labeled “notice of default” (in which case the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice of such receipt to all Lenders);

and, for each of the items set forth in clauses (i) through (v) above, each Lender, the Credit Parties hereby waive and agree not to assert (and the Borrower shall cause each other Credit Party not a signatory hereto to waive and agree not to assert) any right, claim or cause of action it might have against the Administrative Agent based thereon.

8.6 Administrative Agent Individually. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may make loans and other extensions of credit to, acquire Stock and Stock Equivalents of, engage in any kind of business with, any Credit Party or Affiliate thereof as though it were not acting as Administrative Agent and may receive separate fees and other payments therefor. To the extent the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates makes any Term Loan or otherwise becomes a Lender hereunder, it shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and shall be subject to the same obligations and liabilities as any other Lender and the terms “Lender” and “Required Lender” and any similar terms shall, except where otherwise expressly provided in any Loan Document, include the Administrative Agent or such Affiliate, as the case may be, in its individual capacity as Lender or as one of the Required Lenders.

8.7 Lender Credit Decision. (a) Each Lender acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any of their Related Persons or upon any document (including any offering and disclosure materials in connection with the syndication of the Loans) solely or in part because such document was transmitted by the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons, conduct its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of each Credit Party and make and continue to make its own credit decisions in connection with entering into, and taking or not taking any action under, any Loan Document or with respect to any transaction contemplated in any Loan Document, in each case based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate. Except for documents expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party that may come in to the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons.

(b) If any Lender has elected to abstain from receiving MNPI concerning the Credit Parties or their Affiliates such Lender acknowledges that, notwithstanding such election, the Administrative Agent and/or the Credit Parties will, from time to time, make available syndicate-information (which may contain MNPI) as required by the terms of, or in the course of administering the Loans to the credit contact(s) identified for receipt of such information on the Lender’s administrative questionnaire who are able to receive and use all syndicate-level information (which may contain MNPI) in accordance with such Lender’s compliance policies and contractual obligations and applicable law, including federal and state securities laws; provided, that if such contact is not so identified in such questionnaire, the relevant Lender hereby agrees to promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) provide such a contact to the Administrative Agent and the Credit Parties upon request therefor by the Administrative Agent or the Credit Parties. Notwithstanding such Lender’s election to abstain from receiving MNPI, such Lender acknowledges that if such Lender chooses to communicate with the Administrative Agent, it assumes the risk of receiving MNPI concerning the Credit Parties or their Affiliates

8.8 Expenses; Indemnities; Withholding.

(a) Each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party), promptly upon demand, severally and ratably, for any costs and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of financial, legal and other advisors and Other Taxes paid in the name of, or on behalf of, any Credit Party) that may be incurred by the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons in connection with the preparation, syndication, execution, delivery, administration, modification, consent, waiver or enforcement of, or the taking of any other action (whether through negotiations, through any work-out, bankruptcy, restructuring or other legal or other proceeding (including preparation for and/or response to any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto or otherwise) in respect of, or legal advice with respect to its rights or responsibilities under, any Loan Document.

(b) Each Lender further agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Administrative Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party), in each case, severally and ratably, harmless from and against Liabilities (including, to the extent not indemnified pursuant to Section 8.8(c), Taxes, interests and penalties imposed for not properly withholding or backup withholding on payments made to or for the account of any Lender) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of any Loan Document, any related document or any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any such document, or, in each case, any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons under or with respect to any of the foregoing; provided, that no Lender shall be liable to the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or, as the case may be, such Related Person, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order.

(c) To the extent required by any Requirement of Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender under a Loan Document an amount equal to any applicable withholding Tax (including withholding Taxes imposed under Chapters 3 and 4 of Subtitle A of the Code). If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate certification form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or fails to establish an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax with respect to a particular type of payment, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent or any other Person of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective, failed to maintain a Participant Register or for any other reason), or the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that it was required to withhold Taxes from a prior payment but failed to do so, such Lender shall promptly indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and together with all expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses. The Administrative Agent may offset against any payment to any Lender under a Loan Document, any applicable withholding Tax that was required to be withheld from any prior payment to such Lender but which was not so withheld, as well as any other amounts for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to indemnification from such Lender under this Section 8.8(c).

8.9 Resignation of the Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent (i) may resign at any time by delivering notice of such resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if no such date is set forth therein, upon the date such notice shall be effective in accordance with the terms of this Section 8.9(a) and (ii) shall resign (and without further action shall be deemed to have resigned), if the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate thereof is a Non-Funding Lender and the Required Lenders have notified the Administrative Agent in writing of their intent to replace the Administrative Agent, any such notice shall set forth an effective date of such resignation and if no such date is reflected in such notice on the second Business Day following the receipt of such notice. In all cases, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If, after 30 days after the date of the retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation or 30 days after the date of the Administrative Agent’s dismissal by the Required Lenders, no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed by the Required Lenders that has accepted such appointment, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent from among the Lenders. Each appointment under this clause (a) shall be subject to the prior consent of the Borrower, which may not be unreasonably withheld but shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default.

(b) Effective immediately upon its resignation, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, (ii) the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the retiring Administrative Agent until a successor Administrative Agent shall have accepted a valid appointment hereunder, (iii) the retiring Administrative Agent and its Related Persons shall no longer have the benefit of any provision of any Loan Document other than with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken while such retiring Administrative Agent was, or because such retiring Administrative Agent had been, validly acting as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and (iv) subject to its rights under Section 8.3, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. Effective immediately upon its acceptance of a valid appointment as Administrative Agent a successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

8.10 Release of Collateral or Guarantors. Each Lender hereby consents to the release and hereby directs the Administrative Agent to release (or, in the case of clause (b)(ii) below, release or subordinate) the following:

(a) any Subsidiary of the Borrower from its guaranty of any Obligation if all of the Stock and Stock Equivalents of such Subsidiary owned by any Credit Party are sold or transferred in a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a waiver or consent), to the extent that, after giving effect to such transaction, such Subsidiary would not be required to guaranty any Obligations pursuant to Section 4.12; and

(b) any Lien held by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties against (i) any Collateral that is sold, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of by a Credit Party in a transaction permitted by the Loan Documents (including pursuant to a valid waiver or consent), to the extent all Liens required to be granted in such Collateral pursuant to Section 4.12 after giving effect to such transaction have been granted, (ii) any Property subject to a Lien permitted hereunder in reliance upon Section 5.1(h) and (iii) all of the Collateral and all Credit Parties, upon (A) the occurrence of the Facility Termination Date and (B) to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties of liability releases from the Credit Parties each in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

Each Lender hereby directs the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent hereby agrees, upon receipt of reasonable advance written notice from the Borrower, to execute and deliver or file such documents and to perform other actions reasonably necessary to release the guaranties and Liens when and as directed in this Section 8.10.

8.11 Additional Secured Parties. The benefit of the provisions of the Loan Documents directly relating to the Collateral or any Lien granted thereunder shall extend to and be available to any Secured Party that is not a Lender party hereto as long as, by accepting such benefits, such Secured Party agrees, as among the Administrative Agent and all other Secured Parties, that such Secured Party is bound by (and, if requested by the Administrative Agent shall confirm such agreement in a writing in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent) this Article VIII, Section 9.3, Section 9.9, Section 9.10, Section 9.11, Section 9.17, Section 9.23 and Section 10.1) and the decisions and actions of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders (or, where expressly required by the terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders or other parties hereto as required herein) to the same extent a Lender is bound; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) such Secured Party shall be bound by Section 8.8 only to the extent of Liabilities, costs and expenses with respect to or otherwise relating to the Collateral held for the benefit of such Secured Party, in which case the obligations of such Secured Party thereunder shall not be limited by any concept of pro rata share or similar concept, (b) the Administrative Agent and the Lenders party hereto shall be entitled to act at its sole discretion, without regard to the interest of such Secured Party, regardless of whether any Obligation to such Secured Party thereafter remains outstanding, is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral, becomes unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy thereby, and without any duty or liability to such Secured Party or any such Obligation and (c) except as otherwise set forth herein, such Secured Party shall not have any right to be notified of, consent to, direct, require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted in respect of the Collateral or under any Loan Document.

NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND IS MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RELATED PERSONS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS. Each Credit Party executing this Agreement and each Secured Party agrees that the Administrative Agent have no responsibility for maintaining or providing any equipment, software, services or any testing required in connection with any Electronic Transmission.

9.4 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. No course of dealing between any Credit Party, any Affiliate of any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

9.5 Costs and Expenses. Any action taken by any Credit Party under or with respect to any Loan Document, even if required under any Loan Document or at the request of the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders, shall be at the expense of such Credit Party, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be required under any Loan Document to reimburse any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party therefor except as expressly provided therein. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse promptly following written demand (a) the Administrative Agent for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its Related Persons, in connection with the investigation, development, preparation, negotiation, syndication, execution, interpretation or administration of, any modification of any term of or termination of, any Loan Document, any commitment or proposal letter therefor, any other document prepared in connection therewith or the consummation and administration of any transaction contemplated therein, in each case including Attorney Costs to the Administrative Agent, the cost of environmental audits, Collateral audits and appraisals, background checks and similar expenses, to the extent permitted hereunder, (b) the Administrative Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its Related Persons in connection with internal audit reviews, field examinations and Collateral examinations (which shall be reimbursed, in addition to the out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such examiners, at the per diem rate per individual charged by the Administrative Agent for its examiners), (c) the Administrative Agent and its Related Persons for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work-out”, (ii) the enforcement or preservation of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, any Obligation, with respect to the Collateral or any other related right or remedy or (iii) the commencement, defense, conduct of, intervention in, or the taking of any other action (including preparation for and/or response to any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto) with respect to, any proceeding (including any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) related to any Credit Party, any Subsidiary of any Credit Party, Loan Document, Obligation or Related Transaction, including Attorney Costs and (d) fees and disbursements of Attorney Costs of one law firm on behalf of all Lenders (other than Administrative Agent) incurred in connection with any of the matters referred to in clause (c) above.

9.6 Indemnity.

(a) Each Credit Party agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each of their respective Related Persons (each such Person being an“Indemnitee”) from and against all Liabilities that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee (whether brought by a Credit Party, an Affiliate of a Credit Party or any other Person) in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of (i) any Loan Document, any Obligation (or the repayment thereof), the use or intended use of the proceeds of any Term Loan or any securities filing of, or with respect to, any Credit Party, (ii) any commitment letter, proposal letter or term sheet with any Person or any Contractual Obligation, arrangement or understanding with any broker, finder or consultant, in each case entered into by or on behalf of any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any of them in connection with any of the foregoing and any Contractual Obligation entered into in connection with any Electronic Transmissions, (iii) any actual or prospective investigation, litigation or other proceeding, whether or not brought by any such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons, any holders of securities or creditors (and including Attorney’s Costs in any case), whether or not any such Indemnitee, Related Person, holder or creditor is a party thereto, and whether or not based on any securities or commercial law or regulation or any other Requirement of Law or theory thereof, including common law, equity, contract, tort or otherwise or (iv) any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, that no Credit Party shall have any liability under this Section 9.6(a) to any Indemnitee with respect to any Indemnified Matter, and no Indemnitee shall have any liability with respect to any Indemnified Matter other than (to the extent otherwise liable), to the extent such liability has resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order. Furthermore, the Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement waives and agrees not to assert against any Indemnitee, and shall cause each other Credit Party to waive and not assert against any Indemnitee, any right of contribution with respect to any Liabilities that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Related Person. This Section 9.6(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent Liabilities arising from any non-Tax claim.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” includes all Environmental Liabilities imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee, including those arising from, or otherwise involving, any Property of any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party or any actual, alleged or prospective damage to Property or natural resources or harm or injury alleged to have resulted from any Release of Hazardous Materials on, upon or into such Property or natural resource or any Property on or contiguous to any Real Estate of any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party, whether or not, with respect to any such Environmental Liabilities, any Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor-in-interest to any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party or the owner, lessee or operator of any Property of any Related Person through any foreclosure action, in each case except to the extent such Environmental Liabilities (i) are incurred solely following foreclosure by Administrative Agent or following Administrative Agent or any Lender having become the successor-in-interest to any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party and (ii) are attributable solely to acts of such Indemnitee.

9.7 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any Property in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any Obligation. To the extent that any Secured Party receives a payment from the Borrower, from any other Credit Party, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.

9.8 Successors and Assigns. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided that any assignment by any Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Section 9.9, and provided further that the Borrower (and any other Credit Party signatory to this Agreement) may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender.

9.9 Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect.

(a) Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower, the other Credit Parties signatory hereto and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Lender that such Lender has executed it. Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, the Borrower, the other Credit Parties hereto (in each case except for Article VIII), the Administrative Agent and each Lender receiving benefits of the Loan Documents and, to the extent provided in Section 8.11, each other Secured Party and, in each case, their respective successors and permitted assigns. Except as expressly provided in any Loan Document (including in Section 8.9 of this Agreement), none of the Borrower, any other Credit Party, or the Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign any rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein.

(b) Right to Assign. Each Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign (a “Sale”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of its Term Loan Commitments and its rights and obligations with respect to its Term Loans) to:

(i) any existing Lender;

(ii) any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender;

(iii) any other Person (excluding therefrom any Credit Party, Subsidiary or (other than an Affiliate described in the preceding clause (i) or (ii)) Affiliate of a Credit Party) acceptable to (x) the Administrative Agent and (y) which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, the Borrower; provided, however, that:

(A) in the event an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required for any Sale;

(B) the consent of the Borrower shall be deemed to have been given unless an objection is delivered to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after notice of a proposed Sale is delivered to the Borrower;

(D) for each Term Loan, the aggregate outstanding principal amount (determined as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment) of the Term Loans and Commitments subject to any such Sale shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, unless such Sale is made to an existing Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender, is of the assignor’s (together with its Affiliates and Approved Funds) entire interest in such facility or is made with the prior consent of the Administrative Agent.

(c) Procedure. The parties to each Sale made in reliance on clause (b) above (other than those described in clause (e) or (f) below) shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment via an electronic settlement system designated by the Administrative Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Administrative Agent, via a manual execution and delivery of the Assignment) evidencing such Sale, together with any existing Note subject to such Sale (or any affidavit of loss therefor acceptable to the Administrative Agent), any Tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 10.1 and payment of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 to the Administrative Agent, unless waived or reduced by the Administrative Agent, provided that (1) if a Sale by a Lender is made to an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of such assigning Lender, then no assignment fee shall be due in connection with such Sale, and (2) if a Sale by a Lender is made to an assignee that is not an Affiliate or Approved Fund of such assignor Lender, and concurrently to one or more Affiliates or Approved Funds of such Assignee, then only one assignment fee of $3,500 (unless waived or reduced by the Administrative Agent) shall be due in connection with such Sale. Upon receipt of all the foregoing, and conditioned upon such receipt and, if such Assignment is made in accordance with Section 9.9(b)(iii), upon the Administrative Agent consenting to such Assignment, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment, the Administrative Agent shall record or cause to be recorded in the Register the information contained in such Assignment.

(d) Effectiveness.

(i) Subject to the Register recording requirements by the Administrative Agent relating to an Assignment pursuant to Section 9.9(d)(ii), (A) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender, (B) any applicable Note shall be transferred to such assignee through such entry and (C) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

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

Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary, the entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Grant of Security Interests. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 9.9(e), each Lender may grant a security interest in, or otherwise assign as collateral, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Term Loans), to (A) any federal reserve bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board), without notice to the Administrative Agent or (B) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Lender’s Indebtedness or equity securities, by notice to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that no such holder or trustee, whether because of such grant or assignment or any foreclosure thereon (unless such foreclosure is made through an assignment in accordance with clause (b) above and the Register recording requirements of Section 9.9(d)(ii)), shall be entitled to any rights of such Lender hereunder and no such Lender shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder.

(f) Participants and SPVs. In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 9.9(f), each Lender may, (x) with notice to the Administrative Agent, grant to an SPV the option to make all or any part of any Term Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making of Term Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such Lender to make such Term Loans hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Lender the right to receive payment with respect to any Obligation and (y) without notice to or consent from the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, sell participations to one or more Persons other than a Credit Party or an Affiliate of a Credit Party in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Term Loan); provided, however, that, whether as a result of any term of any Loan Document or of such grant or participation, (i) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make Term Loans hereunder, and, except as provided in the applicable option agreement, none shall be liable for any obligation of such Lender hereunder, (ii) such Lender’s rights and obligations, and the rights and obligations of the Credit Parties and the Secured Parties towards such Lender, under any Loan Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto shall continue to deal solely with such Lender, which shall remain the holder of the Obligations in the Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled to the benefit of Article X, but, with respect to Section 10.1, only to the extent such participant or SPV agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to be subject to and comply with Section 10.1(g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 10.1(g) shall be delivered to the granting or participating Lender) and then only to the extent of any amount to which such Lender would be entitled in the absence of any such grant or participation, unless the right to any greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the participant or SPV acquired the applicable participation and (B) each such SPV may receive other payments that would otherwise be made to such Lender with respect to Term Loans funded by such SPV to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided to the Administrative Agent by such SPV and such Lender, provided, however, that in no case (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an SPV or participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Loan Document, and (iii) the consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required (either directly, as a restraint on such Lender’s ability to consent hereunder or otherwise) for any amendments, waivers or consents with respect to any Loan Document or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce or direct enforcement of the Obligations), except for those described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of Section 9.1(a) with respect to amounts, or dates fixed for payment of amounts, to which such participant or SPV would otherwise be entitled and, in the case of participants, except for those described in clause (vi) of Section 9.1(a). No party hereto shall institute (and the Borrower shall cause each other Credit Party not to institute) against any SPV grantee of an option pursuant to this clause (f) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper of such SPV; provided, however, that each Lender having designated an SPV as such agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against any Liability that may be incurred by, or asserted against, such Indemnitee as a result of failing to institute such proceeding (including a failure to be reimbursed by such SPV for any such Liability). The agreement in the preceding sentence shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest on) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other interests, rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person other than the Administrative Agent except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Notwithstanding anything in the Loan Documents to the contrary, 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 and any other Loan Documents notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

9.10 Non-Public Information; Confidentiality.

(a) Non-Public Information. The Administrative Agent and each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it may receive material non-public information (“MNPI”) hereunder concerning the Credit Parties and their Affiliates and agrees to use such information in compliance with all relevant policies, procedures and applicable Requirements of Laws (including United States federal and state securities laws and regulations).

(b) Confidential Information. The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to use all reasonable efforts to maintain, in accordance with its customary practices for transactions of the type contemplated hereby, the confidentiality of information obtained by it pursuant to any Loan Document or otherwise related to any Credit Party, except that such information may be disclosed (i) with the Borrower’s consent, (ii) to Related Persons of such Lender or the Administrative Agent on a need to know basis, as the case may be, that are advised of the confidential nature of such information and are instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms hereof, (iii) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes (A) publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.10 or (B) available to such Lender or the Administrative Agent or any of their Related Persons, as the case may be, from a source (other than any Credit Party) not known by them to be subject to disclosure restrictions, (iv) to the extent disclosure is required by applicable Requirements of Law or other legal process or requested or demanded by any Governmental Authority (including, without limitation, public disclosures by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their Related Persons required by law, legal process (including, without limitation, subpoenas, requests for information, interrogatories and other similar process), the SEC or any other governmental or regulatory authority or agency); provided, that, prior notice of such required disclosure is provided to the Borrower (provided, that, (A) such notification is legally permissible, and (B) no such notification shall be required in respect of any disclosure to any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent or any Lender), (v) (A) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, any examiner or any nationally recognized rating agency or (B) otherwise to the extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Credit Parties, (vi) to current or prospective assignees, SPVs (including the investors and prospective investors therein) or participants, Persons that hold a security interest in any Lender’s rights under this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.9(e) (and those Persons for whose benefit such holder of a security interest is acting), in each case to the extent such assignees, investors, participants, secured parties (and such benefited Persons), agree to be bound by provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section 9.10(b) (and such Person may disclose information to their respective Related Persons in accordance with clause (ii) above) and, (vii) to any other party hereto, and (viii) in connection with the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, in connection with any litigation or other proceeding relating to the Loan Documents to which such Lender or the Administrative Agent or any of their Related Persons is a party or bound, or to the extent necessary to respond to public statements or disclosures by Credit Parties or their Related Persons referring to a Lender or the Administrative Agent or any of their Related Persons. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Section 9.10 and those of any other Contractual Obligation entered into with any Credit Party (whether or not a Loan Document), the terms of this Section 9.10(b) shall govern.

(c) Tombstones. Subject to the proviso included in the following sentence, each Credit Party consents to the publication by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any press releases, tombstones, advertising or other promotional materials (including via any Electronic Transmission) relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement using such Credit Party’s name, product photographs, logo or trademark. The Administrative Agent or such Lender shall provide a draft of any such press release, advertising or other promotional material to the Borrower for review and comment prior to the publication thereof, the form and substance of which shall be subject to the approval of the Borrower, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(d) Press Release and Related Matters. No Credit Party shall, and no Credit Party shall permit any of its Affiliates to, issue any press release or other public disclosure (other than any document filed with any Governmental Authority relating to a public offering of securities of any Credit Party) using the name, logo or otherwise referring to the Administrative Agent or of any of its Affiliates or the Loan Documents without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or such Affiliate except to the extent required to do so under applicable Requirements of Law (including filings with the SEC) and then, only after consulting with the Administrative Agent.

(e) Distribution of Materials to Lenders. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that the Loan Documents and all reports, notices, communications and other information or materials provided or delivered by, or on behalf of, the Credit Parties hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) may be disseminated by, or on behalf of, the Administrative Agent, and made available, to the Lenders by Electronic Transmission.

9.11 Set-off; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Right of Setoff. The Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Affiliate (including each branch office thereof) of any of them is hereby authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived by each Credit Party), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against any Obligation of any Credit Party now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation. No Lender shall exercise any such right of set off without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders. The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights under this Section 9.11(a) are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, their Affiliates and the other Secured Parties, may have.

(b) Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender, directly or through an Affiliate or branch office thereof, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Credit Party (whether voluntary, involuntary or through the exercise of any right of setoff or the receipt of any Collateral or “proceeds” (as defined under the applicable UCC) of Collateral) other than pursuant to Section 9.9 or Article X and such payment exceeds the amount such Lender would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone to, and been distributed by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, such Lender shall purchase for cash from other Lenders such participations in their Obligations as necessary for such Lender to share such excess payment with such Lenders to ensure such payment is applied as though it had been received by the Administrative Agent and applied in accordance with this Agreement (or, if such application would then be at the discretion of the Borrower, applied to repay the Obligations in accordance herewith); provided, however, that (i) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise recovered from such Lender in whole or in part, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price therefor shall be returned to such Lender without interest and (ii) such Lender shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be able to exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the applicable Credit Party in the amount of such participation.

9.12 Counterparts; Facsimile Signature. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties 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. Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or Electronic Transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

9.13 Severability.

This Agreement is the result of negotiations among and has been reviewed by counsel to the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent, each Lender and other parties hereto, and is the product of all parties hereto.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the parties hereto has had the advice of counsel with respect to Sections 9.18 and 9.19.

9.17 No Third Parties Benefited. This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and, subject to the provisions of Section 8.11, each other Secured Party, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to any Person not a party to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

Article X - TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

10.1 Taxes. For purposes of this Section 10.1, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

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

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Credit Parties. The Credit Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Indemnification by the Credit Parties. The Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.9(f) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 10.1(d).

(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Credit Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 10.1, such Credit Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 10.1(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

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

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

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax 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.

Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 10.1(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.1(g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 10.1(g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 10.1(g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person. rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Term Loan Commitments of such Lender or the Term Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

The meanings of defined terms shall be equally applicable to the singular and plural forms of the defined terms. Terms (including uncapitalized terms) not otherwise defined herein and that are defined in the UCC shall have the meanings therein described.

(b) The Agreement. The words “hereof”, “herein”, “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall refer to this Agreement or such other Loan Document as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement or such other Loan Document; and subsection, section, schedule and exhibit references are to this Agreement or such other Loan Documents unless otherwise specified.

(c) Certain Common Terms. The term “documents” includes any and all instruments, documents, agreements, certificates, indentures, notices and other writings, however evidenced. The term “including” is not limiting and means “including without limitation.”

(d) Performance; Time. Whenever any performance obligation hereunder or under any other Loan Document (other than a payment obligation) shall be stated to be due or required to be satisfied on a day other than a Business Day, such performance shall be made or satisfied on the next succeeding Business Day. In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including”; the words “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding”, and the word “through” means “to and including.” All references to the time of day shall be a reference to New York time. If any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document refers to any action taken or to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be interpreted to encompass any and all means, direct or indirect, of taking, or not taking, such action.

(e) Contracts. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Loan Document, references to agreements and other contractual instruments, including this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments thereto, restatements and substitutions thereof and other modifications and supplements thereto which are in effect from time to time, but only to the extent such amendments and other modifications are not prohibited by the terms of any Loan Document.

References to any statute or regulation may be made by using either the common or public name thereof or a specific cite reference and, except as otherwise provided with respect to FATCA, are to be construed as including all statutory and regulatory provisions related thereto or consolidating, amending, replacing, supplementing or interpreting the statute or regulation.

11.3 Accounting Terms and Principles. All accounting determinations required to be made pursuant hereto shall, unless expressly otherwise provided herein, be made in accordance with GAAP. No change in the accounting principles used in the preparation of any financial statement hereafter adopted by Holdings shall be given effect for purposes of measuring compliance with any provision of Article V or VI unless Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders agree to modify such provisions to reflect such changes in GAAP and, unless such provisions are modified, all financial statements, Compliance Certificates and similar documents provided hereunder shall be provided together with a reconciliation between the calculations and amounts set forth therein before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to in Article V and Article VI shall be made, without giving effect to any election under Accounting Standards Codification 825-10 (or any other Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other Liabilities of any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party at “fair value.” Any lease that was treated as an operating lease under GAAP at the time it was entered into that later becomes a capital lease as a result of a change in GAAP during the life of such lease, including any renewals, and any lease entered into after the date of this Agreement that would have been considered an operating lease under the provisions of GAAP in effect as of December 31, 2014, in each case, shall be treated as an operating lease for all purposes under this Agreement. A breach of a financial covenant contained in Article VI shall be deemed to have occurred as of any date of determination by the Administrative Agent or as of the last day of any specified measurement period, regardless of when the financial statements reflecting such breach are delivered to the Administrative Agent.

11.4 Payments. The Administrative Agent may set up standards and procedures to determine or redetermine the equivalent in Dollars of any amount expressed in any currency other than Dollars and otherwise may, but shall not be obligated to, rely on any determination made by any Credit Party. Any such determination or redetermination by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. No determination or redetermination by any Secured Party or any Credit Party and no other currency conversion shall change or release any obligation of any Credit Party or of any Secured Party (other than the Administrative Agent and its Related Persons) under any Loan Document, each of which agrees to pay separately for any shortfall remaining after any conversion and payment of the amount as converted. The Administrative Agent may round up or down, and may set up appropriate mechanisms to round up or down, any amount hereunder to nearest higher or lower amounts and may determine reasonable de minimis payment thresholds.
