SECTION 2 THE REVOLVING LOANS

2.1 The Revolving Loan Commitment. On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Credit Agreement, the Lender agrees, from time to time on any Business Day during the period commencing on the Effective Date up to but excluding the Maturity Date, to make revolving loans consisting of LIBOR Loans to the Borrower (the “Revolving Loans”) in amounts permitted hereunder, which together with all outstanding Revolving Loans, will not exceed in the aggregate the principal amount of $70,000,000 (such amount, the “Revolving Loan Commitment”). The Revolving Loan Commitment shall be subject to reduction and/or termination as herein provided (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 2.7 and 7.2). On the terms and subject to the conditions hereof, the Borrower may from time to time borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Loans. Any such borrowing shall be denominated in Dollars, and shall be in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000, or any whole multiple thereof in excess thereof. On the Maturity Date, the Revolving Loan Commitment shall automatically terminate and the Lender shall have no obligation whatsoever to make any further Revolving Loans to the Borrower.

2.2 Making the Revolving Loans.

2.2.1 Each Revolving Loan shall be made upon written notice, given by the Borrower to the Lender at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed borrowing date thereof. Each such notice shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (a “Notice of Borrowing”), shall be irrevocable and shall specify therein (i) the proposed borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day, (ii) the principal amount of such Revolving Loan and (iii) the duration of the initial Interest Period therefor. Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 6 (or the waiver thereof by the Lender as herein prescribed), the Lender will make the proceeds of such Revolving Loan available to the Borrower in same day funds at the account designated by Borrower to Lender or at such other place as the Borrower shall designate in writing to the Lender. The Borrower agrees that the Lender may, at its option, make any Revolving Loan hereunder by causing any foreign or domestic branch or affiliate of the Lender to make such Revolving Loan; provided that, any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Revolving Loan in accordance with the terms hereof.

2.2.2 Notwithstanding Section 2.2.1 above, no Revolving Loan shall be made, if after giving effect to the incurrence of such Revolving Loan, the Value of Cash Collateral would be less than the greater of (a) the aggregate principle amount of the Revolving Loans outstanding at such date and (b) $70,000,000.

2.3 Interest. The Revolving Loans shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date hereof to the Maturity Date at a rate per annum equal to the sum of LIBOR for the applicable Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin. Interest shall accrue from and including the first day of an Interest Period to, but excluding, the last day of such Interest Period. Interest shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each Interest Period. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all accrued interest shall be payable (i) on each date principal is payable hereunder or such earlier date as herein required, and (ii) on the date any Revolving Loan of one type is converted into a Revolving Loan of another type.

2.4 Principal Repayment; Note. The Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal balance of all outstanding Revolving Loans, together with accrued interest and all other amounts due and owing hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, on the Maturity Date in Dollars. The Borrower’s obligations to the Lender with respect to the payment of interest and principal with respect to the Revolving Loans shall be evidenced by this Credit Agreement and the Note.

2.5 Default Interest. Any principal, interest or other obligation hereunder or under any other Loan Document which is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, shall bear interest from the day when due until said principal, interest or other amount is paid in full, payable on demand, at a rate equal at all times to the applicable interest rate plus 2% per annum.

2.6 Continuation and Conversion Elections. The Borrower shall have the right, at any time, on delivery of an irrevocable written notice (a “Continuation/Conversion Notice”) to the Lender to (i) to continue a LIBOR Loan or any portion thereof for an additional Interest Period (which notice shall specify the duration of such subsequent Interest Period) or (ii) convert a Base Rate Loan or any portion thereof into a LIBOR Loan subject, in each case, to the following:

(a) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such continuation or conversion;

(b) in the case of a continuation or conversion of less than all such Revolving Loans, the aggregate principal amount of any LIBOR Loan shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000, and not less than $100,000; and

(c) the Lender shall receive the Continuation/Conversion Notice at least three (3) Business Days prior to the conversion to or continuation of a LIBOR Loan.

In the event that the Borrower shall not give notice to continue any LIBOR Loan into a subsequent Interest Period, such LIBOR Loan (unless repaid) shall automatically become a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period of one (1) month at the expiration of the then-current Interest Period. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then, for so long as an Event of Default is continuing, unless repaid, each LIBOR Loan shall be converted into a Base Rate Loan at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

2.7 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Loan Commitment; Optional Prepayment.

2.7.1 The Borrower shall have the right at any time or from time to time, without premium or penalty, upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Lender, to terminate or reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment; provided that, no such termination or reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loan made on the effective date thereof, the aggregate principal then outstanding of all Revolving Loans would exceed (a) the Revolving Loan Commitment or (b) the aggregate Value of Cash Collateral at such date. Any such reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000, and not less than $100,000 or any multiple thereof. Any termination or reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment shall be permanent.

2.7.2 Subject to the terms of Section 3.3, the Borrower may (and if such notice is given, shall), upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Lender, prepay all or any portion of the principal amount outstanding of any Revolving Loans together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid; provided, however, that (i) prepayments of Revolving Loans prior to the Revolving Commitment Termination Date shall not reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment; (ii) all prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.7.2 shall be in amounts of not less than $100,000, or any multiple thereof and (iii) any Revolving Loan may be designated by the Borrower to be prepaid if and only to the extent that prepayment is made on the last day of an Interest Period or subject to the payment of amounts described in Section 3.3. Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.7.2 shall be accompanied by the payment of (i) accrued interest to date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid and (ii) any and all payments required pursuant to Section 3.3 in respect of such prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the date and the amount of the prepayment.

2.8 Inability to Determine Rates. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents, if, on or prior to the first day of any Interest Period (an "Affected Interest Period"):

(a) the Lender determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period, including, without limitation, because LIBOR is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary;

(b) LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lender of funding or maintaining such LIBOR Loan for such Interest Period; or

(c) the supervisor for the administrator of LIBOR or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Lender has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR or the LIBOR shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”),

then, after such determination by the Lender, the Lender and the Borrower may amend this Credit Agreement to replace LIBOR with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein) that has been broadly accepted by the syndicated loan market in the United States in lieu of LIBOR (any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary to the Credit Agreement, any such amendment shall become effective upon the execution of such amendment by the Lender and the Borrower.

If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (a) above exist, the obligation of the Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Loans or Interest Periods). Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a LIBOR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Loans (to the extent of the affected LIBOR Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loan in the amount specified therein.

2.9 Illegality. If the Lender determines that as a result of any Change in Law, it becomes unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for the Lender to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon LIBOR, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of the Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by the Lender to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lender to make or continue LIBOR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans, shall be suspended until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from the Lender, prepay or, if applicable, convert all LIBOR Loans to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if the Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day, or immediately, if the Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

2.10 Method of Payment.

2.10.1 All sums payable by the Borrower to the Lender hereunder or under the Note shall be payable in New York, New York, in Dollars, in immediately available funds and without any defense, set-off or counterclaim, no later than 12:00 noon New York time on the day when due, for the account of and as directed by the Lender. Any payments made after 12:00 noon (New York time) on any day shall be deemed to have been made on the immediately following Business Day.

2.10.2 Any payments shall be applied first to default charges, indemnities, expenses and other non-principal and interest amounts owed under any of the Loan Documents, if any, then to interest due and payable on the Revolving Loans, and thereafter to the principal amount of the Revolving Loans due and payable.

2.10.3 All computations of interest shall be made by the Lender on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable; provided, however, that if a Revolving Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one (1) day’s interest shall be paid on such Revolving Loan.

2.10.4 Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any instrument delivered hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of the payment of interest; provided however, that if such extension would cause such payment to be made in a new calendar month or beyond the Maturity Date, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

2.11 Loan Account. The Lender maintains on its books a loan account in the Borrower’s name (the “Loan Account”), showing the Revolving Loans, prepayments, the computation and payment of interest, and any other amounts due and sums paid hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The entries made by the Lender in the Loan Account shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lender as to the amount at any time due from the Borrower, absent manifest error.

2.12 Use of Proceeds. The Borrower shall apply the proceeds of the Revolving Loans to pay down the existing term loan under the SVB Facility and for general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures; provided, however, that no portion of the proceeds of any of the Revolving Loans may be used to acquire any “Margin Stock”, as defined in Federal Reserve Board Regulation U or otherwise be used in a manner which would violate Section 7 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and as in effect from time to time, or any regulations issued pursuant thereto.

2.13 Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Lender a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”), which shall accrue at the rate of 0.20% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the earlier of the date such Revolving Loan Commitment terminates and the Maturity Date. The accrued Commitment Fee shall be payable within one (1) Business Day after the end of each calendar quarter and on the earlier of the date the Revolving Loan Commitments terminate and the Maturity Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. The Commitment Fee shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

2.14 Cash Collateral.

2.14.1 Periodic Reporting. Each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each calendar year (each a “Quarterly Valuation Testing Date”), the Collateral Agent shall determine the Value of Cash Collateral on deposit in the Collateral Account and deliver to the Lender and the Borrower a notice evidencing the Value of such Cash Collateral as of such Quarterly Valuation Testing Date, within three (3) Business Days of such Quarterly Valuation Testing Date.

2.14.2 Reporting in Connection with Revolving Loans. The Lender shall notify the Collateral Agent of its receipt of any Notice of Borrowing and the proposed Borrowing Date with respect thereto. On the day preceding such proposed Borrowing Date (a “Borrowing Valuation Testing Date” and together with each Quarterly Valuation Testing Date, each a “Testing Date”), the Collateral Agent shall determine the Value of Cash Collateral on deposit in the Collateral Account and deliver to the Lender and the Borrower a notice of the Value of such Cash Collateral as of such Borrowing Valuation Testing Date, no later than such Borrowing Valuation Testing Date.

2.14.3 Required Deposit. If, on any Testing Date, the Value of Cash Collateral in the Collateral Account is less than $70,000,000, the Borrower shall deposit Dollars in the Collateral Account in an amount no less than the amount by which the Value of the Cash Collateral is less than $70,000,000, (a) in respect of any Quarterly Valuation Testing Date, within ten (10) Business Days of such Quarterly Valuation Testing Date and (b) in respect of any Borrowing Valuation Testing Date, no later than the proposed Borrowing Date in respect of such Borrowing Valuation Testing Date.

2.14.4 Valuation Request. The Lender and the Borrower shall be entitled, from time to time, to request that the Collateral Agent determine the Value of Cash Collateral on deposit in the Collateral Account. Within three (3) Business Days of any such request, the Collateral Agent shall deliver to the Lender and the Borrower a notice of the Value of such Cash Collateral as of the date such request was made by the Lender or the Borrower, as applicable.

2.15 Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

SECTION 3 YIELD PROTECTION

3.1 Increased Costs.

3.1.1 Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

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

(b) subject the Lender to any Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clause (ii) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (iii) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(c) impose on the Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Credit Agreement or Revolving Loans made by the Lender or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Revolving Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Revolving Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of the Lender, the Borrower will pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

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

3.1.3 Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of the Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.2 and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

3.1.4 Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to this Section 3.1 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of the 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).

3.2 Taxes.

3.2.1 Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 3.2, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

3.2.2 Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Borrower) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Borrower, then the Borrower 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 Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.2) the Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

3.2.3 Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

3.2.4 Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Lender, within ten (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 3.2) payable or paid by the Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Lender 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 the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

3.2.5 Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.2, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender 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 Lender.

3.2.6 Status of Lenders.

(a) Any Lender (including a Person that becomes a Lender pursuant to Section 9.3.2) that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Revolving Loan shall deliver to the Borrower, at the time reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower 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, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will enable the Borrower 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 3.2.6(b)(i), (b)(ii) and (b)(iv)) 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.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

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

(ii) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Borrower) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Credit Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), whichever of the following is applicable:

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

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

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

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

(iii) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the Borrower) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Credit Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), 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 to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(iv) if a payment made to a Lender under this Credit Agreement 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 at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower 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 as may be necessary for the Borrower 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, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Credit Agreement.

3.2.7 Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.2), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 3.2 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 3.2.7 (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 3.2.7, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 3.2.7 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 3.2.7 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.

3.3 Breakage Costs.

3.3.1 Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify and hold the Lender harmless from, any loss, cost or expense which the Lender may sustain or incur as a result of, or in connection with (i) the failure of the Borrower to borrow, convert, continue or prepay a LIBOR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, (ii) the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default) or (iii) the conversion of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount determined by the Lender to be equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such LIBOR Loan if none of the events specified in clause (i) through (iii) had occurred at the rate that would have been applicable to such LIBOR Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Revolving Loan) over (y) the amount of interest that would have accrued on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which the Lender would bid were it to bid at the commencement of the Interest Period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the interbank LIBOR market.

3.3.2 Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate from the Lender submitted to the Borrower as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be conclusive absent manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Revolving Loans and all amounts payable hereunder.

3.4 Mitigation Obligations; Designation of Lending Office. If the Lender requests compensation under Section 3.1, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to the Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of the Lender pursuant to Section 3.2, then the Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Revolving Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of the Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 3.1 or 3.2, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject the Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to the Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

SECTION 4 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Borrower hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Lender, which representations and warranties shall be made as of the Effective Date and shall be deemed remade at the times as set forth herein:

4.2 Power and Authority. The Borrower has full legal right, power and authority to carry on its present business, to own its property and assets and to execute, deliver and perform this Credit Agreement, the Note and each other Loan Document to which it is a party. The Borrower is duly qualified or licensed as a foreign corporation authorized to conduct its activities and is in good standing in all jurisdictions in which the character of the properties owned or leased by it or the nature of the activities conducted makes such qualification or licensing necessary, except where the failure to be so qualified or licensed would not be reasonably likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

5.10 Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

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

9.1 Entire Agreement. This Credit Agreement and the documents referred to herein constitute the entire obligation of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter.

9.2 No Waiver; Cumulative Rights. The failure or delay of the Lender to require performance by the Borrower of any provision of this Credit Agreement shall not operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall it affect the Lender’s rights to require performance of such provision at any time thereafter, nor shall it affect or impair any of the remedies, powers or rights of the Lender with respect to any other or subsequent failure, delay or default. Each and every right granted to the Lender hereunder or under any other document or instrument delivered hereunder or in connection herewith shall be cumulative and may be exercised at any time.

9.3 Assignment; Binding Effect.

9.3.1 The provisions of this Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Credit Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Lender) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Credit Agreement.

9.3.2 The Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment and the Revolving Loans at the time owing to it) (i) an Affiliate of the Lender, without the consent of the Borrower or (ii) to any other Person with the prior written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld) unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which such consent shall not be required. Subject to notification to the Borrower of an assignment, the assignee shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned, have the rights and obligations of the existing Lender under this Credit Agreement, and the existing Lender shall, to the extent of the interest assigned, be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement (and, in the case of an assignment covering all of the existing Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, the existing Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 8. The Borrower hereby agrees to execute any amendment and/or any other document that may be necessary to effectuate such an assignment, including an amendment to this Credit Agreement to provide for multiple lenders and an administrative agent to act on behalf of such lenders. The Lender, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each assignment and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Revolving Loan Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Revolving Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower 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 Credit 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. Any assignment or transfer by the Lender of rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.3.2 shall be treated for purposes of this Credit Agreement as a sale by the Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 9.3.3.

9.3.3 The Lender may, at any time, without the consent of the Borrower, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that, (i) the Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Lender in connection with the Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1 and 3.2 to the same extent as if it were the Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 9.3.2; provided that, such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.7 and 3.2 as if it were an assignee under Section 9.3.2 and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.1 and 3.2 with respect to any participation, than the Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. The Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as an 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) of each Participant’s interest in the Revolving Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that, the Lender shall have no 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 the Revolving Loan Commitment, Revolving Loans or other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that the Revolving Loan Commitment, any Revolving Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Credit Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

9.3.4 The Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Credit Agreement to secure its obligations, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that, no such pledge or assignment shall release the Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the Lender as a party hereto.

9.4 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

9.4.1 This Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claim, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflicts of laws principles.

Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing herein or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

9.4.3 The Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document in any such court referred to in Section 9.4.2. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

9.4.4 The Borrower irrevocably consents to the service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.6 and agrees that nothing herein will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

9.5 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY RELATING TO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO AGENT, ATTORNEY, REPRESENTATIVE OR ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
