CREDIT AGREEMENT

This CREDIT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of June 1, 2015 among PPL ENERGY SUPPLY, LLC (to be renamed TALEN ENERGY SUPPLY, LLC) (the “Borrower”), a Delaware limited liability company, CITIBANK, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, including any permitted successor thereto, the “Administrative Agent”) and as collateral trustee (in such capacity, including any permitted successor thereto, the “Collateral Trustee”) under the Credit Documents (as defined below), and each Lender and each Issuing Lender (such terms having the meanings assigned in Section 1 hereto) from time to time party hereto.

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested the Lenders to provide a $1,850,000,000 Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility”), the proceeds of which would be used by the Borrower to finance a portion of the Transaction Expenses (as defined below) on the Closing Date (as defined below) and on and after the Closing Date, to finance the working capital needs and other general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its subsidiaries (including for capital expenditures, acquisitions, working capital and/or purchase price adjustments, the payment of transaction fees and expenses, other investments, restricted payments and any other purpose not prohibited by this Agreement).

WHEREAS, the Lenders are willing to extend credit to the Borrower on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

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

SECTION 1. Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings (such meanings to be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined):

“Accounting Change” shall have the meaning provided in Section 1.07.

“Acquired Debt” shall mean, with respect to any specified Person:

(a) Indebtedness of any other Person or asset existing at the time such other Person or asset is merged with or into, is acquired by, or became a Restricted Subsidiary of such specified Person, as the case may be, whether or not such Indebtedness is incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, or to finance, such other Person merging with or into, or becoming a Restricted Subsidiary of, such specified Person; and

(b) Indebtedness secured by a Lien encumbering any asset acquired by such specified Person.

“Additional Lender” shall mean, at any time, any bank, other financial institution or debt provider that, in any case, is not an existing Lender and that agrees to provide any portion of any (a) Incremental Facility in accordance with Section 2.15 or (b) Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment in accordance with Section 2.17; provided that each Additional Lender shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), in each case to the extent any such consent would be required from the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and each Issuing Lender under Section 13.04(c) for an assignment of Loans to such Additional Lender.

“Additional Security Documents” shall have the meaning provided in Section 9.10.

“Administrative Agent” shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the introductory statement to this Agreement and shall include any permitted successor to the Administrative Agent appointed pursuant to Section 12.09.

“Affiliate” shall mean, with respect to any specified Person, any other Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For purposes of this

definition, “control,” as used with respect to any Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by agreement or otherwise; provided however that none of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates shall be considered an Affiliate of the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof as a result of this Agreement, the extension of credit hereunder, or its actions in connection herewith or any other Credit Document. For purposes of this definition, the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under common control with” have correlative meanings.

“Affiliate Transaction” shall have the meaning provided in Section 10.06(a).

“Agent” shall mean the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee and any other agent appointed hereunder and each of their respective successors and assigns.

“Agreement” shall mean this Credit Agreement, as modified, supplemented, amended, restated (including any amendment and restatement hereof), extended, refinanced or renewed from time to time.

“Applicable Law” shall mean, as to any Person, any ordinance, law, treaty, rule or regulation or any determination, ruling or other directive by and from an arbitrator or a court or other Governmental Authority, in each case, applicable to or binding on such Person or any of its property or assets or to which such Person or any of its property is subject.

“Applicable Margin” shall mean a percentage per annum equal to (i) initially in the case of (A) Initial Revolving Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans and Swingline Loans, 1.25% and (B) initially in the case of Initial Revolving Loans maintained as LIBOR Loans, 2.25%; and (ii) in the case of Unutilized Revolving Loan Commitments attributable to Initial Revolving Loan Commitments, 0.375%. From and after each day of delivery of any certificate delivered in accordance with the first sentence of the following paragraph indicating an entitlement to a different margin for Initial Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) and Unutilized Revolving Loan Commitments attributable to Initial Revolving Loan Commitments, than that described in the immediately preceding sentence, the Applicable Margins for such Initial Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) shall be those set forth below opposite the Total Leverage Ratio indicated to have been achieved in any certificate delivered in accordance with the following sentence:


Total Leverage Ratio	Initial Revolving Loan and Swingline Loan Base Rate Margin			Initial Revolving Loan LIBO Rate Margin
Greater than or equal to 4.00:1.00		1.50	%		2.50	%

Greater than or equal to 3.00:1.00 but less than 4.00:1.00		1.25	%		2.25	%

Less than 3.00:1.00		1.00	%		2.00	%

The Total Leverage Ratio used in a determination of the Applicable Margin shall be determined based on the delivery of the Compliance Certificate required pursuant to Section 9.01(d) to the Administrative Agent (with a copy to be sent by the Administrative Agent to each Lender), for the applicable Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower, which certificate shall set forth the calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio as at the last day of the Test Period ended immediately prior to delivery of the Compliance Certificate (but determined on a Pro Forma Basis) and the Applicable Margins which shall be thereafter applicable (until same are changed or cease to apply in accordance with the following sentences). The Applicable Margins so determined shall apply, except as set forth in the succeeding sentence, to the earlier of (x) the date on which the next Compliance Certificate is delivered to the

-2-

Administrative Agent, and (y) the date which is 46 days (or 91 days in the case of the fourth Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower) following the last day of the relevant Test Period, at which time, if no Compliance Certificate has been delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Applicable Margins shall be, until such time as the Compliance Certificate is delivered, the highest Applicable Margin set forth in the table above and, from and after the delivery of the Compliance Certificate with respect to such period, at the Applicable Margins as set forth therein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this definition, the Applicable Margins shall be the highest Applicable Margin set forth in the table above at all times during which there shall exist any Event of Default.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this definition or elsewhere in this Agreement, if it is subsequently determined that the Total Leverage Ratio set forth in any Compliance Certificate delivered for any period is inaccurate for any reason and the result thereof is that the Lenders received interest for any period based on an Applicable Margin that is less than that which would have been applicable had the Total Leverage Ratio been accurately determined, then, for all purposes of this Agreement, the “Applicable Margin” for any day occurring within the period covered by such Compliance Certificate shall retroactively be deemed to be the relevant percentage as based upon the accurately determined Total Leverage Ratio for such period, and any shortfall in the interest theretofore paid by the Borrower for the relevant period pursuant to Section 2.08(a) and (b) as a result of the miscalculation of the Total Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be (and shall be) due and payable under the relevant provisions of Section 2.08(a) or (b), as applicable, at the time the interest for such period was required to be paid pursuant to said Section on the same basis as if the Total Leverage Ratio had been accurately set forth in such Compliance Certificate (and shall remain due and payable until paid in full, together with all amounts owing under Section 2.08(c) (subject to the proviso below), in accordance with the terms of this Agreement). Such Applicable Margin shall be due and payable on the earlier of (i) the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default under Section 11.05 and (ii) promptly upon written demand to the Borrower (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days after such written demand); provided that in the case of preceding clause (ii), nonpayment of such Applicable Margin as a result of any inaccuracy shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default (whether retroactively or otherwise), and no such amounts shall be deemed overdue (and no amounts shall accrue interest at the applicable default rate), at any time prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days after such written demand to the Borrower.

The Applicable Margins with respect to any Revolving Loans other than Initial Revolving Loans shall be determined in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Agreement, and shall utilize the rules provided above to the extent specified in the respective Incremental Amendment, Extension or Refinancing Amendment, as applicable.

“Approved Fund” shall mean any Fund that is administered, advised or managed by a Lender or an Affiliate of the entity that administers, advises or manages any Fund that is a Lender.

“Arrangers” shall mean, collectively, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Securities LLC, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Senior Funding, Inc., BNP Paribas Securities Corp., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and RBC Capital Markets.

“Asset Sale” shall mean (a) the sale, lease (other than an operating lease), conveyance or other disposition of any assets or property other than in the ordinary course of business; provided that the sale, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole will be governed by Section 10.02 and not by Section 10.08 and (b) the issuance of Equity Interests in any of the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries or the sale of Equity Interests in any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries.

Notwithstanding the preceding, none of the following items will be deemed to be an Asset Sale:

(ii) a transfer of assets or Equity Interests between or among the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and/or between Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that if the transferor of such property is a Subsidiary Guarantor or the Borrower then (i) the transferee thereof must either be the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor or (ii) to the extent such transaction constitutes an Investment, such Investment is a Permitted Investment and any Indebtedness corresponding to such Investment must be permitted by Section 10.04;

-3-

(iii) an issuance of Equity Interests by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower to the Borrower or to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower;

(v) the sale or discount, in each case without recourse, of accounts receivable, in connection with the compromise or collection thereof;

(vi) the licensing of intellectual property;

(vii) [reserved];

Such present value shall be calculated using a discount rate equal to the rate of interest implicit in such transaction, determined in accordance with GAAP; provided, however, that if such sale and leaseback transaction results in a Capital Lease Obligation, the amount of Indebtedness represented thereby will be determined in accordance with the definition of “Capital Lease Obligation.”

“Authorized Officer” shall mean, with respect to (i) delivering Notices of Borrowing, Notices of Conversion/Continuation and similar notices, and any other matter or matters in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Documents, the chief executive officer, the president, the chief financial officer, the treasurer, the assistant treasurer, the principal accounting officer, the general counsel, assistant general counsel, any senior vice president or any vice president or any other responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower or any other Person that has or have been authorized by the board of directors of the Borrower to deliver such notices pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) delivering financial information (including, without limitation, calculations of “Fair Market

(ii) For purposes of calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Total Leverage Ratio and Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, Specified Transactions (and the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith) that have been made (i) during the applicable Test Period or Calculation Period and (ii) subsequent to such Test Period (or Calculation Period) and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period or Calculation Period, as applicable. Without limiting the foregoing, for purposes of calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Total Leverage Ratio and Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, any Person that is a Restricted Subsidiary on the Calculation Date will be deemed to have been a Restricted Subsidiary at all times during the applicable Test Period; and any Person that is not a Restricted Subsidiary on the Calculation Date will be deemed not to have been a Restricted Subsidiary at any time during the applicable Test Period. If since the beginning of any applicable Test Period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such Test Period shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.06, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Total Leverage Ratio and Senior Secured Leverage Ratio shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.06, and the Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA attributable to discontinued operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP shall be excluded for purposes of such calculations.

(iii) In the event that the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by redemption, repayment, retirement or extinguishment) any Indebtedness or issues, repurchases or redeems preferred stock included in the calculations of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Total Leverage Ratio and Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (in each case except for determinations pursuant to Section 10.07 and other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility in the ordinary course of business for working capital purposes), (x) during the applicable Test Period (or Calculation Period) or (y) subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period (or Calculation Period) and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Total Leverage Ratio and Senior Secured Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable Test Period (or Calculation Period) in the case of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Total Leverage Ratio or the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio. If any Indebtedness that is being incurred on the Calculation Date bears a floating rate of interest, the interest expense on such Indebtedness will be calculated as if the rate in effect on the Calculation Date had been the applicable rate for the entire Test Period (taking into account any Hedging Obligation applicable to such Indebtedness).

(iv) Whenever pro forma effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction or implementation of an operating initiative, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower and include, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of cost savings, operating expense reductions,

-43-

other operating improvements and synergies that are reasonably identifiable, factually supportable and projected by the Borrower in good faith to be reasonably anticipated to be realizable within the later of 18 months after the event giving rise thereto or, with respect to any such adjustment in connection with the Transactions, within 24 months after the Closing Date (provided, that to the extent any such operational changes are not associated with a transaction, such changes shall be limited to those for which all steps have been taken for realizing such savings and are factually supportable, reasonably identifiable and supported by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent) (calculated on a pro forma basis as though such cost savings, operating expense reductions, other operating improvements and synergies had been realized on the first day of such period as if such cost savings, operating expense reductions, other operating improvements and synergies were realized during the entirety of such period) relating to such Specified Transaction, net of the amount of actual benefits realized during such period from such actions; provided that any increase in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA as a result of cost savings, operating expense reductions, other operating improvements and synergies shall be subject to the limitations set forth in the definition of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA; provided that amounts added back pursuant to this Section 1.06 (iv) shall not, when taken together with any add-backs pursuant clauses (vii) and (viii) of the definition of “Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA,” account for more than 25% of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA in any Test Period (calculated before giving effect to any such add-backs and adjustments).

(v) For purposes of calculating the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, the Fixed Charges attributable to discontinued operations, as determined in accordance with GAAP, and operations or businesses (and ownership interests therein) disposed of prior to the Calculation Date, will be excluded, but only to the extent that the obligations giving rise to such Fixed Charges will not be obligations of the specified Person or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries following the Calculation Date.

1.07. Calculations, Computations. The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Borrower to the Lenders); provided that (i) if at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or requirement set forth in any Credit Document (including, without limitation, as a result of the effect of such change on any definition including accounting terms) used in calculating such ratio or determining compliance with such requirement (the “Accounting Change”) and the Borrower shall so request (or the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders so request), the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or requirement to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders) (provided, however, that, until so amended, such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in conformity with those accounting principles and policies in effect immediately prior to such Accounting Change); (ii) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, for purposes of calculating financial terms, all covenants and related definitions, all such calculations based on the operations of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis shall be made without giving effect to the operations of any Unrestricted Subsidiaries, (iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all financial covenants contained herein or in any other Credit Document shall be calculated, in each case, without giving effect to any election under FASB ASC 825 (or any similar accounting principle) permitting a Person to value its financial liabilities at the fair value thereof and to the extent expressly provided herein, certain calculations shall be made on a Pro Forma Basis and (iv) all financial statements delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement after the date of any accounting change set forth in Section 1.02 shall contain a schedule showing the adjustments, if any, necessary to reconcile such financial statements with GAAP as in effect immediately prior to such accounting changes.

1.08. Interest Rate Calculations. All computations of interest, Unused Commitment Fee and other Fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days (except for interest calculated by reference to the Prime Lending Rate, which shall be based on a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring the period for which such interest, Unused Commitment Fee or Fees are payable.

SECTION 2. Amount and Terms of Credit.

2.01. The Commitments.

(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make, at any time and from time to time on or after the Closing Date and prior to the applicable Maturity Date, a revolving loan or revolving loans (each, a “Revolving Loan” and, collectively, the “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrower, which Revolving Loans (i) shall be denominated in Dollars, (ii) shall, at the option of the Borrower, be incurred and maintained as, and/or converted into, Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans; provided that except as otherwise specifically provided in Section 2.10(b), all Revolving Loans comprising the same Borrowing shall at all times be of the same Type, (iii) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof (without premium or penalty) and (iv) shall not exceed for any such Revolving Lender at any time outstanding that aggregate principal amount which, when added to the product of (x) such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage and (y) the sum of (I) the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings (exclusive of Unpaid Drawings which are repaid with the proceeds of, and simultaneously with the incurrence of, the respective incurrence of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans) at such time and (II) the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans (exclusive of Swingline Loans which are repaid with the proceeds of, and simultaneously with the incurrence of, the respective incurrence of Revolving Loans) then outstanding, equals the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Lender at such time.

(b) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender agrees to make, at any time and from time to time on or after the Closing Date and prior to the applicable Maturity Date, a revolving loan or revolving loans (each, a “Swingline Loan” and, collectively, the “Swingline Loans”) to the Borrower, which Swingline Loans (i) shall be incurred and maintained as Base Rate Loans, (ii) shall be denominated in Dollars, (iii) may be repaid and reborrowed in accordance with the provisions hereof, (iv) shall not exceed in aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding, when combined with the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans then outstanding and the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time, an amount equal to the Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time and (v) shall not exceed in aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding the Maximum Swingline Amount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.01(b), the Swingline Lender shall not make any Swingline Loan after it has received written notice from the Borrower, any other Credit Party or the Required Lenders stating that a Default or an Event of Default exists and is continuing until such time as the Swingline Lender shall have received written notice (A) of rescission of all such notices from the party or parties originally delivering such notice or notices, (B) of the cure of such Default or Event of Default or (C) of the waiver of such Default or Event of Default by the Required Lenders.

(c) On any Business Day, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, give notice to the Revolving Lenders that the Swingline Lender’s outstanding Swingline Loans shall be funded with one or more Borrowings of Revolving Loans (provided that such notice shall be deemed to have been automatically given upon the occurrence of a Specified Default or upon the exercise of any of the remedies provided in Section 11), in which case one or more Borrowings of Revolving Loans constituting Base Rate Loans (each such Borrowing, a “Mandatory Borrowing”) shall be made on the immediately succeeding Business Day by all Revolving Lenders pro rata based on each such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to Section 11) and the proceeds thereof shall be applied directly by the Swingline Lender to repay the Swingline Lender for such outstanding Swingline Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby irrevocably agrees to make Revolving Loans upon one (1) Business Day’s notice pursuant to each Mandatory Borrowing in the amount and in the manner specified in the preceding sentence and on the date specified in writing by the Swingline Lender notwithstanding (i) the amount of the Mandatory Borrowing may not comply with the Minimum Borrowing Amount otherwise required hereunder, (ii) whether any conditions specified in Section 7 are then satisfied (or waived), (iii) whether a Default or an Event of Default then exists, (iv) the date of such Mandatory Borrowing, and (v) the amount of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time. In the event that any Mandatory Borrowing cannot for any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including, without limitation, as a result of the commencement of a proceeding under Bankruptcy Law with respect to the Borrower), then each Revolving Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from the Borrower on or after such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender such participations in the outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause the Revolving Lenders to share in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon their respective

-45-

Revolving Percentages (determined before giving effect to any termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to Section 11); provided that (x) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender until the date as of which the respective participation is required to be purchased and, to the extent attributable to the purchased participation, shall be payable to the participant from and after such date and (y) at the time any purchase of participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing Revolving Lender shall be required to pay the Swingline Lender interest on the principal amount of participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of payment for such participation, at the overnight Federal Funds Rate for the first three days and at the interest rate otherwise applicable to Revolving Loans maintained as Base Rate Loans hereunder for each day thereafter.

(d) If the Maturity Date shall have occurred in respect of any tranche of Revolving Loan Commitments at a time when another tranche or tranches of Revolving Loan Commitments is or are in effect with a longer Maturity Date, then on the earliest occurring Maturity Date all then outstanding Swingline Loans shall be repaid in full on such date (and there shall be no adjustment to the participations in such Swingline Loans as a result of the occurrence of such Maturity Date); provided, however, that if on the occurrence of such earliest Maturity Date (after giving effect to any repayments of Revolving Loans and any reallocation of Letter of Credit participations as contemplated in Section 3.07), no Specified Default then exists or would result therefrom and there shall exist sufficient Unutilized Revolving Loan Commitments with a later Maturity Date or Maturity Dates so that the respective outstanding Swingline Loans could be incurred pursuant the Revolving Loan Commitments which will remain in effect after the occurrence of such Maturity Date, then, subject to the consent of the Swingline Lender, there shall be an automatic adjustment on such date of the participations in such Swingline Loans and same shall be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to the relevant Revolving Loan Commitments with a later Maturity Date or Maturity Dates, and such Swingline Loans shall not be so required to be repaid in full on such earliest Maturity Date.

2.02. Minimum Amount of Each Borrowing. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing of Loans under a respective Class shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable to such Class. More than one Borrowing may occur on the same date, but at no time shall there be outstanding more than ten (10) Borrowings of LIBOR Loans in the aggregate for all Classes of Loans.

2.03. Notice of Borrowing.

(a) Whenever the Borrower desires to incur (x) LIBOR Loans hereunder, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office at least three (3) Business Days’ prior notice of each LIBOR Loan to be incurred hereunder or (y) Base Rate Loans hereunder (excluding Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans made pursuant to a Mandatory Borrowing), the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office at least one (1) Business Day’s prior notice of each Base Rate Loan to be incurred hereunder; provided that (in each case) any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on a certain day only if given before 12:00 noon on such day. Each such notice (each, a “Notice of Borrowing”), except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.10, shall be irrevocable and shall be in writing, or by telephone promptly confirmed in writing, substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1, appropriately completed to specify: (i) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans to be incurred pursuant to such Borrowing, (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and (iii) whether the Loans being incurred pursuant to such Borrowing are to be initially maintained as Base Rate Loans or, to the extent permitted hereunder, LIBOR Loans and, if LIBOR Loans, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender which is required to make Loans of the Class specified in the respective Notice of Borrowing, notice of such proposed Borrowing, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters required by the immediately preceding sentence to be specified in the Notice of Borrowing.

(b) (i) Whenever the Borrower desires to incur Swingline Loans hereunder, the Borrower shall give the Swingline Lender no later than 1:00 p.m. on the date that a Swingline Loan is to be incurred, written notice or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing of each Swingline Loan to be incurred hereunder. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and specify in each case (A) the date of Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), and (B) the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans to be incurred pursuant to such Borrowing.

-46-

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

(c) Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice of any Borrowing or prepayment of Loans, the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, may act without liability upon the basis of telephonic notice of such Borrowing or prepayment, as the case may be, believed by the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower, prior to receipt of written confirmation. In each such case, the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s or the Swingline Lender’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice of such Borrowing or prepayment of Loans, as the case may be, absent manifest error, gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

2.04. Disbursement of Funds. No later than 12:00 noon on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing (or (x) in the case of Swingline Loans, no later than 1:00 p.m. on the date specified pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(i) or (y) in the case of Mandatory Borrowings, no later than 1:00 p.m. on the date specified in Section 2.01(c)), each Lender with a Commitment of the respective Class will make available its pro rata portion (determined in accordance with Section 2.07) of each such Borrowing requested to be made on such date (or in the case of Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender will make available the full amount thereof). All such amounts will be made available in Dollars and in immediately available funds at the Payment Office, and the Administrative Agent will, except in the case of Revolving Loans made pursuant to a Mandatory Borrowing, make available to the Borrower at the Payment Office, or to such other account as the Borrower may specify in writing to the Administrative Agent, the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders; provided that, if, on the date of a Borrowing of Revolving Loans (other than a Mandatory Borrowing), there are Unpaid Drawings or Swingline Loans then outstanding (or any accrued interest, fees or costs in respect of such Unpaid Drawings), then the proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied, first, to the payment in full of any such Unpaid Drawings with respect to Letters of Credit (and any accrued interest, fees or costs in respect of such Unpaid Drawings), second, to the payment in full of any Swingline Loans and third, to the Borrower as otherwise provided above. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on written demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover on demand from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower until the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if recovered from such Lender, the overnight Federal Funds Rate for the first three days and at the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Loans for each day thereafter and (ii) if recovered from the Borrower, the rate of interest applicable to the respective Borrowing, as determined pursuant to Section 2.08. Nothing in this Section 2.04 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to make Loans hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any failure by such Lender to make Loans hereunder.

2.05. Notes.

(a) The Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Loans made by each Lender shall be evidenced in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 13.12 and shall, if requested by such Lender, also be evidenced if requested by any applicable Lender (i) in the case of Revolving Loans, by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit B-1, with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (each, a “Revolving Note” and, collectively, the “Revolving Notes”), and (ii) in the case of Swingline Loans, by a promissory note duly executed and delivered by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit B-2, with blanks appropriately completed in conformity herewith (the “Swingline Note”).

-47-

(b) Each Lender will note on its internal records the amount of each Loan made by it and each payment in respect thereof and prior to any transfer of any of its Notes will endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of Loans evidenced thereby. Failure to make any such notation or any error in such notation shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 2.05 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Borrower shall only be required to deliver Notes to Lenders promptly following request for the delivery of such Notes. No failure of any Lender to request or obtain a Note evidencing its Loans to the Borrower shall affect or in any manner impair the obligations of the Borrower to pay the Loans (and all related Obligations) incurred by the Borrower which would otherwise be evidenced thereby in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, and shall not in any way affect the security or guaranties therefor provided pursuant to the various Credit Documents. Any Lender which does not have a Note evidencing its outstanding Loans shall in any event be required to make the notations otherwise described in preceding clause (b).

2.06. Conversions. The Borrower shall have the option to convert, on any Business Day, all or a portion equal to at least the Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal amount of Loans (other than Swingline Loans which may not be converted pursuant to this Section 2.06) made pursuant to one or more Borrowings (so long as of the same Class) of one or more Types of Loans into a Borrowing (of the same Class) of another Type of Loan; provided that, (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.10(b), LIBOR Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the Loans being converted unless the Borrower pays any amounts due under Section 2.11 and no such partial conversion of LIBOR Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of such LIBOR Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, (ii) Base Rate Loans may not be converted into LIBOR Loans if any Event of Default exists pursuant to Section 11.05 on the date of conversion, (iii) if any Event of Default (other than as referred to in preceding clause (ii)) is in existence on the date of the proposed conversion of a LIBOR Loan, (x) Base Rate Loans may not be converted into LIBOR Loans if the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders have notified the Borrower that conversions will not be permitted during the existence of such Event of Default and (y) in the absence of the notification referred to in preceding clause (x), Base Rate Loans may only be converted into LIBOR Loans with an Interest Period of one (1) month and (iv) no conversion pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall result in a greater number of Borrowings of LIBOR Loans than is permitted under Section 2.02. Each such conversion shall be effected by the Borrower by giving the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office prior to 12:00 noon at least (x) in the case of conversions of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans, three (3) Business Days’ prior notice and (y) in the case of conversions of LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans, one (1) Business Day’s prior notice (each, a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”), in each case substantially in the form of Exhibit A-2, appropriately completed to specify the Loans to be so converted, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Loans were incurred and, if to be converted into LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of any such proposed conversion affecting any of its Loans.

2.07. Pro Rata Borrowings. All Borrowings of Revolving Loans under this Agreement shall be incurred from the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their Revolving Loan Commitments; provided that all Mandatory Borrowings shall be incurred from the Revolving Lenders pro rata on the basis of their Revolving Percentages. It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender of its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Loans hereunder.

2.08. Interest.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Base Rate Loan from the date of Borrowing thereof until the earlier of (i) the maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (ii) the conversion of such Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan pursuant to Section 2.06 or 2.09, as applicable, at a rate per annum which shall be equal to the sum of the relevant Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate, each as in effect from time to time.

-48-

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Loan from the date of Borrowing thereof until the earlier of (i) the maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (ii) the conversion of such LIBOR Loan to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.06, 2.09 or 2.10, as applicable, at a rate per annum which shall, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, be equal to the sum of the relevant Applicable Margin as in effect from time to time during such Interest Period plus the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Sections 11.01 or 11.05, overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest in respect of each Loan (other than Loans owed to a Defaulting Lender) shall, in each case, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate which is 2.00% in excess of the rate then borne by such Loans, and all other overdue amounts payable hereunder and under any other Credit Document (other than to a Defaulting Lender) shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate which is 2.00% in excess of the rate applicable to Initial Revolving Loans that are maintained as Base Rate Loans from time to time.

(d) Accrued (and theretofore unpaid) interest shall be payable (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan, (x) quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, and (y) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on written demand, and (ii) in respect of each LIBOR Loan, (x) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period, and (y) on the date of any repayment or prepayment (on the amount repaid or prepaid) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on written demand.

(e) Upon each Interest Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the LIBO Rate for each Interest Period applicable to the respective LIBOR Loans and shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

2.09. Interest Periods. At the time the Borrower gives any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into, any LIBOR Loan (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 12:00 noon on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan (in the case of any subsequent Interest Period), the Borrower shall have the right to elect the interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) applicable to such LIBOR Loan, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower, be (x) a one, two, three, six or, if agreed to by each Lender with Loans and/or Commitments under the relevant Class, twelve month period or (y) if elected by the Borrower, such other period not to exceed one-month; provided that (in each case):

(i) all LIBOR Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

(ii) the initial Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan shall commence on the date of Borrowing of such LIBOR Loan (including the date of any conversion thereto from a Base Rate Loan) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such LIBOR Loan shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;

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

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

-49-

(v) no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of any Class of Loans shall be selected which extends beyond the Maturity Date for such Class of Loans.

If by 12:00 noon on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, the Borrower has failed to elect, or is not permitted to elect, a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue such LIBOR Loans as LIBOR Loans with an Interest Period of one (1) month effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period; provided that if the Borrower is not permitted to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

If any partial prepayment of LIBOR Loans made pursuant to any Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of LIBOR Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, then such Borrowing may not be continued as a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans after the end of the Interest Period then applicable thereto (and the same shall automatically be converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans at the end of such Interest Period) and any election of an Interest Period with respect thereto given by the Borrower shall have no force or effect.

2.10. Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.

(a) In the event that any Lender (or with respect to clause (iv), any Lender or Agent) shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (i) below, may be made only by the Administrative Agent) after the Closing Date:

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

(ii) at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any LIBOR Loan (other than with respect to Taxes) because of (x) any change since the Effective Date in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (whether or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request, to a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the LIBO Rate and/or (y) other circumstances arising since the Effective Date affecting such Lender, the London interbank market or the position of such Lender in such market (including that the LIBO Rate with respect to such LIBOR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of funding such LIBOR Loan); or

Nothing in this Section 2.12 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.06 and 5.04.

2.13. Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.10(a)(ii), (iii) or (iv), Section 2.10(c) or (d), Section 3.06 or Section 5.04 with respect to any Lender which results in such Lender charging to the Borrower increased costs in excess of those being generally charged by the other Lenders, (b) in the case of a refusal by a Lender to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to this Agreement as contemplated by clauses (i) through (iii) of the first proviso to Section 13.10(a) or clauses (i) through (vii) of the second proviso to Section 13.10(a), in each case, which has been approved by the Required Lenders or Majority Lenders, as applicable, or (c) if a Lender rejects (or is deemed to reject) the Extension under Section 2.16(a) which Extension has been accepted under Section 2.16(a) by the Majority Lenders of the respective Class, the Borrower shall have the right, in accordance with Section 13.04(c), if no Specified Default then exists or would exist after giving effect to such replacement, to (i) replace such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”) with one or more other Eligible Transferees, none of whom shall constitute a Defaulting Lender at the time of such replacement (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”) or in the case of a replacement where the consent of the respective Lender is required with respect to less than all Classes of its Loans or Commitments, to replace the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of such Lender in respect of each Class where the consent of such Lender would otherwise be individually required, with identical Commitments and/or Loans of the respective Class provided by the Replacement Lender or (ii) terminate the Commitment of such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, and (x) in the case of a Lender (other than any Issuing Lender), repay all Obligations (other than contingent obligations not then due and payable) of the Borrower owing to such Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date and/or, in the case of a Revolving Lender, re-allocate such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of any Letter of Credit Outstanding in

In the case of the substitution of a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.13, if the Lender being replaced does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Assumption Agreement and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (x) the date on which the Replacement Lender executed and delivers such Assignment and Assumption Agreement and/or such other documentation and (y) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrower required to be paid to the Replaced Lender pursuant to this Section 2.13, then the Replaced Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption Agreement and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall each be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption Agreement and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Replaced Lender.

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

(a) if any Swingline Loan Exposure or Letter of Credit Exposure exists at the time a Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of such Swingline Loan Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure shall be reallocated among the Revolving Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Individual Revolving Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Loan Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure does not exceed the aggregate amount of all Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders’ Revolving Loan Commitments and (y) immediately following the reallocation to a Non-Defaulting Revolving Lender, the Individual Revolving Exposure of such Non-Defaulting Revolving Lender does not exceed its Revolving Loan Commitment at such time;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within five (5) Business Days following written notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay the unreallocated portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Loan Exposure (without a permanent commitment reduction) and (y) second, cash collateralize in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender the unreallocated portion such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in aggregate amount equal to 102% of such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure for so long as such Letter of Credit Exposure is outstanding (the “Letter of Credit Back-Stop Arrangements”);

(iii) the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 4.01(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure;

(iv) if the Letter of Credit Exposure of the Non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.14(a), then the fees payable to the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Section 4.01(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Percentages; and

(v) if any Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.14(a), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Lender or any Revolving Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 4.01(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Letter of Credit Exposure shall be payable to each Issuing Lender until such Letter of Credit Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; and

-54-

(b) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 2.01(d) or Section 3, so long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender (i) the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend, extend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Loan Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders and/or cash collateral has been provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.14(a), and (ii) participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Revolving Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.14(a)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, each Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Revolving Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then (i) the Swingline Loan Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure of the Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitments and on such date such Revolving Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Revolving Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Revolving Lender to hold such Revolving Loans in accordance with its Revolving Percentage and (ii) so long as no Event of Default then exists, all applicable funds held as cash collateral pursuant to the Letter of Credit Back-Stop Arrangements shall thereafter be promptly returned to the Borrower. If the Revolving Loan Commitments have been terminated, all other Obligations (other than contingent obligations not due and owing) with respect to the Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans have been paid in full and no Letters of Credit are outstanding (other than such Letters of Credit that are cash collateralized, back-stopped by a letter of credit or otherwise have been agreed to remain outstanding by the applicable Issuing Lender, in each case on terms reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender), then, so long as no Event of Default then exists, all funds held as cash collateral pursuant to the Letter of Credit Back-Stop Arrangements shall thereafter be promptly returned to the Borrower.

(h) Upon each increase in the Revolving Loan Commitments or incurrence of any Incremental Revolving Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.15, (x) each Revolving Lender immediately prior to such increase or incurrence will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Revolving Commitment Increase or the Incremental Revolving Commitment (each, a “Revolving Commitment Increase Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (i) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (ii) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each Revolving Lender (including each such Revolving Commitment Increase Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments of all Revolving Lenders represented by such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment and (y) if, on the date of such increase, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such Revolving Commitment Increase or the Incremental Revolving Commitment be prepaid from the proceeds of Revolving Loans made hereunder (reflecting such increase in Revolving Loan Commitments), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.11. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(i) This Section 2.15 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.07, 2.08, 13.06 or 13.10 to the contrary.

2.16. Extensions of Revolving Loan Commitments.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders having Revolving Loan Commitments with a like maturity date on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective or Revolving Loan Commitments with a like maturity date) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrower is hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Extension Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitments and otherwise modify the terms of such Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Revolving Loan Commitments (and related outstandings)) (each, an “Extension,” and each group of Revolving Loan Commitments, in each case as so extended, as well as the original Revolving Loan Commitments (in each case not so extended), being a “tranche”; any Extended Revolving Loan Commitments shall constitute a tranche of Revolving Loan Commitments from the tranche of Revolving Loan Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied: (i) no Specified Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time the Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders and immediately prior to or after giving effect to any such Extension, (ii) except as to interest rates, fees, optional redemption or optional prepayment terms, and final maturity, and after the final maturity date of the Initial Revolving Loan Commitment, any other covenants and provisions (which shall be determined by the Borrower and the relevant Revolving Lenders and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Revolving Loan Commitment of any Revolving Lender (an “Extending Revolving Credit Lender”) extended pursuant to an Extension (an “Extended Revolving Loan Commitment”), and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Loan Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with such other terms substantially identical to, or taken as a whole, no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) to the Extending Revolving Credit Lender, as the applicable original Revolving Loan Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Loan Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Revolving Loan Commitments and (C) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments of Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Loan Commitments after the applicable Extension Date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Loan Commitments of such tranche, (2) subject to the provisions of Section 3.07 and 2.01(d) to the extent dealing with Swingline Loans and Letters of

-58-

Credit which mature or expire after a maturity date when there exist Extended Revolving Loan Commitments or Incremental Revolving Commitments with a longer maturity date, all Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Revolving Loan Commitments (and except as provided in Section 3.07 and 2.01(d), without giving effect to changes thereto on an earlier maturity date with respect to Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued), (3) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Loan Commitments after the applicable Extension Date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Loan Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such Class on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class and (4) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Loan Commitments and extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Initial Revolving Loan Commitments and Initial Revolving Loans, (iii) if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loan Commitments, in respect of which Revolving Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loan Commitments offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Revolving Loans of such Revolving Lenders shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Revolving Lenders have accepted such Extension Offer, (iv) all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing, (v) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower and (vi) at no time shall there be no more than five (5) separate Classes of Revolving Loans Commitments outstanding hereunder (including Extended Revolving Loan Commitments and Incremental Revolving Commitments). No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Extension, unless it so agrees in its sole discretion.

(b) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.16, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 5 and (ii) no Extension Offer is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment; provided that the Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Offer in the Borrower’s sole discretion and may be waived by the Borrower) of Revolving Loan Commitments of any or all applicable tranches be tendered. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the Extensions and the other transactions contemplated by this Section 2.16 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Revolving Loans and/or Extended Revolving Loan Commitments on the such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 5 and 13.06) or any other Credit Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.16.

(c) No consent of any Lender shall be required to effectuate any Extensions, other than (A) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Revolving Loan Commitments (or a portion thereof) and (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender (to the extent the Letter of Credit Commitment and the Swingline Facility is to be extended; provided however, that the consent of each applicable Swingline Lender and each applicable Issuing Lender shall not be required to the extent of any corresponding reduction of Swingline Commitments or Letter of Credit Commitments in connection with such Revolving Loan Commitments), which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. All Extended Revolving Loans, Extended Revolving Loan Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis (or, if different, on the same basis as applied to the Obligations being extended) with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent and Collateral Trustee to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with the Borrower as may be necessary or appropriate in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect of Revolving Loan Commitments so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or sub-tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.16. All such amendments entered into with the Borrower by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee hereunder shall be binding and conclusive on the Lenders. In addition, if so provided in such amendment, and with the consent of (x) each Issuing Lender, Letters of Credit and (y) the Swingline Lender, Swingline Loans; provided however, that the consent of each applicable Swingline Lender and each applicable Issuing Lender shall not be required to the extent

-59-

of any corresponding reduction of Swingline Commitments or Letter of Credit Commitments in connection with such Revolving Loan Commitments, in each case expiring on or after the Maturity Date in respect of the Revolving Loans shall automatically be deemed issued under the applicable Extended Revolving Loan Commitments in accordance with the terms of such amendment; provided, however, that participation interests in such Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans, as applicable shall, upon effectiveness of the relevant Extension, be deemed to be participation interests under such Extended Revolving Loan Commitments held ratably by the applicable Extending Revolving Credit Lenders and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions the respective Credit Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Collateral Trustee is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the Latest Maturity Date so that such maturity date is extended to the Latest Maturity Date (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Collateral Trustee).

(d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least ten (10) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including, without limitation, regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.16.

(e) This Section 2.16 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.07, 2.08, 13.06 or 13.10 to the contrary.

2.17. Refinancing Amendments.

(a) At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness under this Agreement in respect of (i) all or any portion of any Incremental Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement or (ii) all or any portion of the Revolving Loans and related extensions of credit (or unused Revolving Loan Commitments) under this Agreement, in the form of (x) Other Term Loans or Other Term Loan Commitments or (y) Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in each case, pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (i) will rank pari passu (or, at the Borrower’s option, junior) in right of payment and of security with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder, (ii) shall not be secured by any assets not constituting Collateral and shall not be guaranteed by any entity that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, (iii) will have such pricing, fees, optional prepayments or redemption terms and premiums as may be agreed by the Borrower and the lenders thereof, (iv) will, in the case of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in the form of Other Term Loans or Other Term Loan Commitments, share ratably in (or, if junior in right of payment or as to security, on a junior basis in respect of) any prepayments of Term Loans (unless the Other Term Loans agree to participate on a less than pro rata basis in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments or repayments), (v) will, in the case of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in the form of Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Commitments, provide that (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Other Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the Other Revolving Commitments and (C) repayment made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments (subject to clause (3) below)) of Loans with respect to Other Revolving Commitments after the date of obtaining any Other Revolving Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Loan Commitments, (2) subject to the provisions of Section 2.01(d) and Section 3.07 to the extent dealing with Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit which mature or expire after a maturity date when there exists Revolving Loan Commitments with a longer maturity date, all Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated by Lenders holding Other Revolving Commitments on a pro rata basis with all Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Other Revolving Loan Commitments and Revolving Loan Commitments (and except as provided in Section 2.01(d) and Section 3.07, without giving effect to changes thereto on an earlier maturity date with respect to Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit theretofore incurred or issued), (3) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans with respect to, and termination of, other Revolving Loan Commitments after the date of obtaining any Other Revolving Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Loan Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such Class on a better than a pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class and (4) assignments and participations of Other Revolving Commitments and Other Revolving Loans shall be governed

-60-

by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Initial Revolving Loan Commitments and Initial Revolving Loans, (vi) in the case of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness that is (x) pari passu, shall be subject to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and (y) junior to the Obligations under this Agreement with respect to security, shall be subject to the Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement, (vii) in the case of any Other Revolving Loans and Other Revolving Commitments, will not contain any mandatory prepayment or commitment reduction provisions other than any such provisions applicable to the then-existing Revolving Loans and Revolving Loan Commitments prior to the Latest Maturity Date with respect to any then in effect Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments and (viii) will have terms and conditions that are substantially identical to, or (taken as a whole) no more favorable (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) to the investors providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness than, the Refinanced Debt; provided, further, that the terms and conditions applicable to such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the date such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is issued, incurred or obtained. Each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.17 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (x) not less than $15,000,000 and (y) an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Revolving Loans and/or Other Revolving Commitments. Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.17. In addition, in the case of the provision of any Other Revolving Commitments, participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated from Lenders holding existing Revolving Loan Commitments to Lenders holding Other Revolving Commitments as needed to reflect the revised Revolving Percentages of the various Revolving Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, no existing Lender shall be obligated to provide any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness.

(c) Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness may also be incurred outside of this Agreement, subject to the relevant requirements of Section 10.04, the definition of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness, the satisfaction of Section 2.17(a)(v), if applicable, and, except with respect to Permitted Unsecured Refinancing Debt, Section 2.17(a)(vi), and the various component defined terms as used therein.

(d) This Section 2.17 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.07, 2.08, 13.06 or 13.10 to the contrary.

SECTION 3. Letters of Credit.

3.01. Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request that an Issuing Lender issue (or amend, increase or extend an outstanding Letter of Credit), at any time and from time to time on and after the Closing Date and prior to the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, for the account of the Borrower (or, upon the request of the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof), (x) an irrevocable standby letter of credit, in a form customarily used by such Issuing Lender or in such other form as is reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Lender and the Borrower, and (y) an irrevocable trade letter of credit, in a form customarily used by such Issuing Lender or in such other form as has been approved by such Issuing Lender and acceptable to the Borrower (each such letter of credit, a “Letter of Credit” and, collectively, the “Letters of Credit”). Each Issuing Lender agrees, subject to the terms of this Agreement, to issue Letters of Credit in an aggregate face amount (i) not to exceed its Letter of Credit Commitment outstanding at any time or (ii) when aggregated with the Letter of Credit Commitments of all of the Issuing Lenders, not to exceed the Revolving Loan Commitments. Letters of Credit may be denominated in Dollars or Canadian Dollars.

-61-

(b) Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Issuing Lender agrees that it will, at any time and from time to time on and after the Closing Date and prior to the fifth Business Day prior to the Revolving Loan Maturity Date, following its receipt of the respective Letter of Credit Request, issue for account of the Borrower, one or more Letters of Credit as are permitted to remain outstanding hereunder without giving rise to a Default or an Event of Default; provided that no Issuing Lender shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit of the types described above if at the time of such issuance:

(i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit or any requirement of law applicable to such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction or reserve or capital or liquidity requirement (for which such Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect with respect to such Issuing Lender on the date hereof, or any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable or in effect with respect to such Issuing Lender as of the date hereof and which such Issuing Lender reasonably and in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ material to it; or

(ii) such Issuing Lender shall have received from the Borrower, any other Credit Party or the Required Lenders prior to the issuance of such Letter of Credit notice of the type described in the second sentence of Section 3.03(b) (which has not been rescinded).

3.02. Maximum Letter of Credit Outstandings; Final Maturities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) no Letter of Credit shall be issued the Stated Amount of which, when added to the Letter of Credit Outstandings (based on the Dollar Equivalent thereof) (exclusive of Unpaid Drawings which are repaid on the date of, and prior to the issuance of, the respective Letter of Credit) at such time would exceed, when added to the sum of (I) the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans then outstanding and (II) the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans then outstanding, an amount equal to the Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time and (ii) unless consented to by the Issuing Lender, each Letter of Credit shall by its terms terminate (x) in the case of standby Letters of Credit, on or before the earlier of (A) the date which occurs 12 months after the date of the issuance thereof and (B) five (5) Business Days prior to the then Latest Maturity Date applicable to the Revolving Loan Commitments hereunder (although any such standby Letter of Credit may be automatically extendible for successive periods of up to 12 months, but, in each case, not beyond the fifth Business Day prior to the then Latest Maturity Date applicable to the Revolving Loan Commitments hereunder, unless (1) each Revolving Lender with Letter of Credit Exposure with respect to such Letter of Credit has approved of such expiration date or (2) the Issuing Lender has approved of such expiration date and the Stated Amount of such requested Letter of Credit has been cash collateralized or back-stopped by a letter of credit on terms reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender), it being understood in the case of any Letter of Credit terminating after such date in reliance on this clause (2), that participations in such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 3.04 shall be terminated on the fifth Business Day prior to the then Latest Maturity Date under the applicable Revolving Loan Commitments hereunder), and (y) in the case of trade Letters of Credit, on or before the earlier of (A) the date which occurs 180 days after the date of issuance thereof and (B) five (5) Business Days prior to the then Latest Maturity Date applicable to Revolving Loan Commitments hereunder.

3.03. Letter of Credit Requests; Minimum Stated Amount.

(a) Whenever the Borrower desires that a Letter of Credit be issued for its account, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent and the respective Issuing Lender at least three (3) Business Days’ (and four (4) Business Days’ in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in Canadian Dollars) (or such shorter period as is reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Lender) written notice thereof (including by way of facsimile). Each notice shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit C, appropriately completed (each, a “Letter of Credit Request”). If requested by the Issuing Lender, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Lender’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit.

(b) The making of each Letter of Credit Request shall be deemed to be a representation and warranty by the Borrower to the Lenders that such Letter of Credit may be issued in accordance with, and will not violate the

-62-

requirements of, Section 3.02. Unless the respective Issuing Lender has received notice from the Borrower, any other Credit Party or the Required Lenders before it issues a Letter of Credit that one or more of the conditions specified in Section 6 or 7 are not then satisfied (or waived) in writing by the Required Lenders prior to the issuance of such Letter of Credit, or that the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate Section 3.02, then such Issuing Lender shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, issue the requested Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower (or, upon the request of the Borrower any Affiliate thereof) in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s usual and customary practices. Upon the issuance of or modification or amendment to any Letter of Credit, each Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, in writing of such issuance, modification or amendment and such notice shall be accompanied by a copy of such Letter of Credit or the respective modification or amendment thereto, as the case may be. Promptly after receipt of such notice the Administrative Agent shall notify the Participants, in writing, of such issuance, modification or amendment.

(c) The initial Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit (other than any Existing Letter of Credit) shall not be less than $10,000 (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) or such other amount specified on Schedule 1.01(b), or such lesser amount as is acceptable to the respective Issuing Lender.

3.04. Letter of Credit Participations.

(a) Immediately upon the issuance by an Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit, such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Lender, and each such Revolving Lender (in its capacity under this Section 3.04, a “Participant”) shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Participant’s Revolving Percentage (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof), in such Letter of Credit, each drawing or payment made thereunder and the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto; provided that, with respect to any Participant, in no event shall the dollar amount represented by the aggregate of the Revolving Percentage of all Letter of Credit Outstandings, the outstanding Revolving Loans and the dollar amount represented by the Swingline Loan Exposure of such Participant exceed the Revolving Commitments of such Participant. Upon any change in the Revolving Loan Commitments or Revolving Percentages of the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.13, 2.14, 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 or 13.04(c), it is hereby agreed that, with respect to all outstanding Letters of Credit and Unpaid Drawings relating thereto, there shall be an automatic adjustment to the participations pursuant to this Section 3.04 to reflect the new Revolving Percentages of the assignor and assignee Lender, as the case may be.

(b) In determining whether to pay under any Letter of Credit, no Issuing Lender shall have any obligation relative to the other Lenders other than to confirm that any documents required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit appear to have been delivered and that they appear to substantially comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit issued by it shall not create for such Issuing Lender any resulting liability to the Borrower, any other Credit Party, any Lender or any other Person unless such action is taken or omitted to be taken with gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or material breach of this Agreement on the part of such Issuing Lender or any of such Issuing Lenders’ or its Affiliates’ employees, directors, officers or agents (in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

(c) In the event that any Issuing Lender makes any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by it and the Borrower shall not have reimbursed such amount in full to such Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.05(a), such Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, which shall promptly notify each Participant of such failure, and each Participant shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office for the account of such Issuing Lender the amount of such Participant’s Revolving Percentage (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) of such unreimbursed payment in same day funds. If the Administrative Agent so notifies, prior to 11:00 a.m. on any Business Day, any Participant required to fund a payment under a Letter of Credit, such Participant shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office for the account of the respective Issuing Lender in Dollars such Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in same day funds. If and to the extent such Participant shall not have so made its Revolving Percentage (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) of the amount of such payment available to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office for the account of such respective Issuing Lender, such Participant agrees to pay to such Issuing Lender, forthwith on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, for each day from such date until the date

-63-

such amount is paid to such Issuing Lender at the overnight Federal Funds Rate for the first three days and at the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans that are maintained as Base Rate Loans for each day thereafter. The failure of any Participant to make available to an Issuing Lender its Revolving Percentage (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) of any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender shall not relieve any other Participant of its obligation hereunder to make available to such Issuing Lender its Revolving Percentage (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) of any payment under any Letter of Credit on the date required, as specified above, but no Participant shall be responsible for the failure of any other Participant to make available to such Issuing Lender such other Participant’s Revolving Percentage (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) of any such payment.

(d) Whenever an Issuing Lender receives a payment of a reimbursement obligation as to which it has received any payments from the Participants pursuant to clause (c) above, such Issuing Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall pay to each such Participant which has paid its Revolving Percentage (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) thereof, in same day funds, an amount equal to such Participant’s share (based upon the proportionate aggregate amount originally funded by such Participant to the aggregate amount funded by all Participants) of the principal amount of such reimbursement obligation and interest thereon accruing after the purchase of the respective participations.

(e) Upon the request of any Participant, the Administrative Agent shall furnish to such Participant copies of any Letter of Credit issued by any Issuing Lender and such other documentation as may reasonably be requested by such Participant.

(f) The obligations of the Participants to make payments to each Issuing Lender with respect to Letters of Credit shall be irrevocable and not subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever and shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, any of the following circumstances:

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

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

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

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

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

3.05. Agreement to Repay Letter of Credit Drawings.

(a) The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Issuing Lender, by making payment to the applicable Issuing Lender in immediately available funds at the applicable Payment Office, for any payment or disbursement made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit issued by it (each such amount, so paid until reimbursed by the Borrower, an “Unpaid Drawing”), prior to 12:00 noon, not later than one (1) Business Day following receipt by the Borrower of written notice of such payment or disbursement; provided that in the absence of such reimbursement by the Borrower within the period provided above, the amount of the Drawing shall immediately and automatically be deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder (with each Participant in the respective Letter of Credit being required to

-64-

fund its Revolving Percentage (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) of the respective Unpaid Drawing in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.04(c), which amounts shall immediately and automatically be deemed a part of such Revolving Loan hereunder) and, initially, shall bear interest at the rate then applicable to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. If a Drawing is deemed to be a Revolving Loan hereunder, the Borrower’s obligation to pay the amount of such Drawing shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Loan. Each Issuing Lender shall give the Borrower prompt written notice of each Drawing under any Letter of Credit issued by it; provided that the failure to give any such notice shall in no way affect, impair or diminish the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 3.05 to reimburse each Issuing Lender with respect to drafts, demands and other presentations for payment under Letters of Credit issued by it (each, a “Drawing”) (including, in each case, interest thereon) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment which the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower may have or have had against any Lender (including in its capacity as an Issuing Lender or as a Participant), including, without limitation, any defense based upon the failure of any drawing under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the Letter of Credit or any nonapplication or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Drawing; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to reimburse any Issuing Lender for any wrongful payment made by such Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit issued by it as a result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or material breach of this Agreement on the part of such Issuing Lender (in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders, nor any Affiliate of the foregoing Persons nor any of the respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of such Person and such Person’s Affiliates, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Lender from liability to the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower or any Subsidiary that are caused by the Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or material breach of this Agreement on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination.

3.06. Increased Costs. If at any time after the Closing Date, the introduction of or any change in any applicable law, rule, regulation, order, guideline or request or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any Issuing Lender or any Participant with any request or directive by any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency (whether or not having the force of law), shall either (i) impose, modify or make applicable any reserve, deposit, capital adequacy, liquidity or similar requirement against letters of credit issued by any Issuing Lender or participated in by any Participant, (ii) impose on any Issuing Lender or any Participant any other conditions relating, directly or indirectly, to this Agreement or any Letter of Credit, or (iii) subject any Issuing Lender or Participant to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on any Letter of Credit, and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to any Issuing Lender, any Agent, or any Participant of issuing, maintaining or participating in any Letter of Credit, or reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by any Issuing Lender or any Participant hereunder or reduce the rate of return on its capital with respect to Letters of Credit, then within fifteen (15) Business Days after receipt of the certificate referred to below by Borrower from any Issuing Lender, any Agent, or any Participant (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by such Issuing Lender or such Participant to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower, subject to the provisions of Section 2.11(b) (to the extent applicable), agrees to pay to such Issuing Lender, such Agent, or such Participant such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Issuing Lender, such Agent, or such Participant for such increased cost or reduction in the amount receivable or reduction on the rate of return on its capital on such liquidity requirements. In determining such additional amounts, each Issuing Lender, Agent or Participant, as the case may be, will act reasonably

-65-

and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable and customary; provided that such Issuing Lender’s, Agent’s or Participant’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 3.06 shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto. Each Issuing Lender, Agent or Participant, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 3.06, will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall include a certificate submitted to the Borrower by such Issuing Lender, Agent or Participant (a copy of which certificate shall be sent by such Issuing Lender or such Participant to the Administrative Agent), setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of such additional amounts.

3.07. Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Loan Commitments. If the Maturity Date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Loan Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolving Loan Commitments in respect of which the Maturity Date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Revolving Lenders to purchase participations therein and to make Revolving Loans and payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 3.04) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders pursuant to) the Revolving Loan Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the Unutilized Revolving Loan Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrower shall cash collateralize any such Letter of Credit in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the respective Issuing Lenders but only up to the amount of 102% of such Letter of Credit not so reallocated. Except to the extent of reallocations of participations pursuant to clause (i) of the immediately preceding sentence, the occurrence of a Maturity Date with respect to a given tranche of Revolving Loan Commitments shall have no effect upon (and shall not diminish) the percentage participations of the Revolving Lenders in any Letter of Credit issued before such Maturity Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the participations of each Revolving Lender under any Class of Revolving Loan Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date of such Class of Revolving Loan Commitments.

3.08. Conflict with Letter of Credit Request. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, any Letter of Credit Request or any other document related to issuing a Letter of Credit, (i) in the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Request or such other document, the terms hereof shall control in all respects and (ii) any grant of a security interest pursuant to any Letter of Credit Request shall be null and void (other than, in the case of trade Letters of Credit, the goods subject to such Letters of Credit and the documents relating to such goods).

3.09. Existing Letters of Credit. Schedule 3.09 contains a description of certain letters of credit that were previously issued by an Issuing Lender for the account of the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof and that will be deemed issued under this Agreement. Each such letter of credit, including any extension or renewal thereof in accordance with the terms thereof and hereof (each, as amended from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof and hereof, an “Existing Letter of Credit”), shall constitute a “Letter of Credit” for all purposes of this Agreement and shall be deemed issued on the Closing Date.

SECTION 4. Unused Commitment Fee; Fees; Reductions of Commitment.

4.01. Fees.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for distribution to each Non-Defaulting Revolving Lender a commitment fee (the “Unused Commitment Fee”) for the period from and including the Closing Date to and including the applicable Maturity Date (or such earlier date on which the Total Revolving Loan Commitment has been terminated) computed at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin(s) applicable to the Unutilized Revolving Loan Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Revolving Lender as in effect from time to time. Accrued Unused Commitment Fee shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, on the date upon which the Total Revolving Loan Commitment is terminated and, with respect to any Class of Revolving Loan Commitments, the Maturity Date for such Revolving Loan Commitments.

-66-

(the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the date of termination or expiration of such Letter of Credit, computed at a rate per annum equal to the relevant Applicable Margin as in effect from time to time during such period with respect to Revolving Loans (of the respective Class or Classes) that are maintained as LIBOR Loans on the daily Stated Amount of each such Letter of Credit. Accrued Letter of Credit Fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, on the first day on or after the termination of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment upon which no Letters of Credit remain outstanding and, with respect to any Class of Letter of Credit Commitments, the Maturity Date for such Letter of Credit Commitments.

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Issuing Lender, for its own account, a fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by it (the “Fronting Fee”) for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the date of termination or expiration of such Letter of Credit, computed at a rate per annum equal to 0.20 % on the daily Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit (or such other rate as shall be separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Issuing Lender). Accrued Fronting Fees shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and upon the first day on or after the termination of the Total Revolving Loan Commitment upon which no Letters of Credit remain outstanding.

(d) The Borrower shall pay directly to each Issuing Lender for its own account with respect to each Letter of Credit issued to the Borrower the customary and reasonable issuance, presentation, amendment and other fees, and other standard costs and charges, of such Issuing Lender relating to Letters of Credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees and standard costs and charges are due and payable within fifteen (15) Business Days of written demand (including documentation reasonably supporting such request) and are nonrefundable.

(e) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such fees as may be agreed to in writing from time to time by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and the Administrative Agent.

4.02. Voluntary Termination of Unutilized Revolving Loan Commitments. On three (3) Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office on or prior to 12:00 noon (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the Lenders), the Borrower shall have the right, at any time or from time to time, without premium or penalty, to terminate the Total Revolving Loan Commitment in whole, or reduce in part, pursuant to this Section 4.02, in an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in the case of partial reductions to the Total Revolving Loan Commitment; provided that a notice of termination under this Section 4.02 may state that such notice is conditional upon the effectiveness of the receipt of proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or Capital Stock or consummation of an asset sale or the occurrence of other events in which case such notice of termination may be rescinded by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of termination) if such condition is not satisfied; provided further that (i) in the event there is more than one Class of Revolving Loan Commitments then outstanding, such reductions shall be applied to such Class or Classes of Revolving Loan Commitments as shall be designated by the Borrower (subject to, and in accordance with, section 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17, as applicable), (ii) in the circumstances contemplated by preceding clause (i), at the time of any such reduction to the Total Revolving Loan Commitments which is not applied on a proportionate basis to each outstanding Class, the Borrower shall on the date of such reduction (and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement) effect such borrowings and repayments pursuant to the Revolving Loan Commitments as same will exist after giving effect to the reductions contemplated pursuant to this Section 4.02 so that the outstandings pursuant to the remaining Revolving Loan Commitments shall be based on the revised Revolving Percentages of the various Lenders after giving effect thereto, and (iii) each reduction to any Class of Revolving Loan Commitments shall be applied proportionately to permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment of the respective Class of each Lender with such a Commitment).

4.03. Mandatory Reduction of Commitments. The Revolving Loan Commitments of each Class shall terminate in their entirety on the applicable Maturity Date.

SECTION 5. Prepayments; Payments; Taxes.

5.01. Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right to prepay the Loans, without premium or penalty, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time on the following terms and conditions: (i) the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 noon at the Notice Office prior written notice (x) on the

-67-

same Business Day (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) in the case of Base Rate Loans and (y) three (3) Business Days prior in the case of LIBOR Loans, of its intent to prepay any Loans, which notice (in each case) shall specify whether Incremental Term Loans (including which Class of Term Loans), Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans shall be prepaid, the amount of such prepayment and the Types of Loans to be prepaid and, in the case of LIBOR Loans, the specific Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such LIBOR Loans were made, and which notice the Administrative Agent shall, except in the case of a prepayment of Swingline Loans, promptly transmit to each of the Lenders; provided that a notice of prepayment under this Section 5.01 (i) may state that such notice is conditional upon the effectiveness of the receipt of proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or Capital Stock or consummation of an asset sale or the occurrence of other events in which case such notice of prepayment may be rescinded by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied; (ii) (x) each partial prepayment of Incremental Term Loans pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount as is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent in any given case), (y) each partial prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $5,000,000 (or such lesser amount as is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent in any given case) and (z) each partial prepayment of Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $1,000,000 (or such lesser amount as is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent in any given case); (iii) except for prepayments made with proceeds of Other Revolving Loans or loans made pursuant to Replacement Revolving Loan Commitments at the time of the establishment of Other Revolving Commitments or Replacement Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 2.17, which Loans shall be used first to refinance the outstanding Revolving Loans being refinanced on a basis so that, after giving effect thereto, the outstandings of each Revolving Lender are in accordance with its Revolving Percentages, each prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall be made in proportion to the outstanding principal of Revolving Loans of the various Revolving Lenders, so that each Revolving Lender’s outstandings pursuant to its Revolving Loan Commitments reflect its respective Revolving Percentages as from time to time in effect and (iv) each prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.01 in respect of any Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among such Loans.

5.02. Mandatory Repayments.

(a) If on any date the sum of (I) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans (after giving effect to all other repayments thereof on such date), (II) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Swingline Loans (after giving effect to all other repayments thereof on such date) and (III) the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Outstandings (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof), exceeds the Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time, then the Borrower shall prepay on such date the principal of outstanding Swingline Loans (without a reduction to the Total Revolving Loan Commitment) and, after all Swingline Loans have been repaid in full or if no Swingline Loans are outstanding, Revolving Loans (without a reduction to the Total Revolving Loan Commitment), in an amount equal to such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Swingline Loans and Revolving Loans, the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Outstandings (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof) exceeds the Total Revolving Loan Commitment at such time, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office on such day an amount of cash and/or Cash Equivalents equal to the amount of such excess (up to a maximum amount equal to the Letter of Credit Outstandings at such time), such cash and/or Cash Equivalents to be held as security for all Obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders hereunder in a cash collateral account to be established by the Administrative Agent.

(b) The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Revolving Credit Lenders on the Maturity Date the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans outstanding on such date.

-68-

5.04. Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party under any Credit Document shall be made free and clear of and 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 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 of Indemnified Taxes has been made (including such deductions and withholdings of Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.04) the applicable Lender or Agent receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) 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) The Credit Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Lender or Agent, within 15 Business 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 5.04) payable or paid by such Lender or Agent, as applicable, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Lender or Agent 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 or Agent (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or Agent, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify any Agent, within 15 Business 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 such 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 13.04(h) 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 such Agent in connection with any Credit 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 such Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes such Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Credit Document or otherwise payable by such Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to such Agent under this paragraph (d).

(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Credit Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 5.04, 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) (i) Any Lender or Agent that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit 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 or Agent, 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 or Agent 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

-69-

Sections 5.04(f)(ii)(A) and (ii)(B) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s or Agent’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender or Agent to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender or Agent.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

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

(B) any Foreign Lender or Foreign Agent 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 or Foreign Agent becomes a Lender or Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

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

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

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender or Foreign Agent 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 D-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender or Foreign Agent 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 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of the applicable IRS Form W-8; or

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

(C) any Foreign Lender or Foreign Agent 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 or Foreign Agent becomes a Lender or Agent under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals 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

-70-

(D) if a payment made to a Lender or Agent under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or Agent 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 or Agent 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 or Agent has complied with such Lender’s or Agent’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount 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 Agreement.

Each Lender and Agent agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) If any Lender or Agent determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith that it has actually received any refund of Tax with respect to which any Credit Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.04, such Lender or Agent shall pay to such Credit Party an amount that such Lender or Agent shall, in its reasonable discretion exercised in good faith, determines is equal to the net benefit, after tax and without interest, which was obtained by such Lender or Agent in such year as a consequence of such refund; provided that such Credit Party shall repay to such Lender or Agent the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such Lender or Agent is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the Lender or the Administrative Agent be required to pay any amount to any Credit Party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the Lender or Agent in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Lender or Agent 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 paragraph shall not be construed to require any Lender or Agent 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.

(h) Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.04 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document. For the purposes of this Section 5.04 and any related definitions, the term “Lender” shall include any Issuing Lender.

8.02. Power and Authority; Due Authorization, Execution and Delivery. Each Credit Party has all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Credit Documents to which it is party and has taken all necessary Company action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of each of such Credit Documents. Each Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each of the Credit Documents to which it is party, and each of such Credit Documents constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent (i) that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law) and (ii) of the need for filings and registrations necessary to create or perfect the Liens on the Collateral granted by the Credit Parties in favor of the Collateral Trustee.

Neither the execution, delivery or performance by any Credit Party of the Credit Documents to which it is a party, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions thereof, (i) will contravene any applicable provision of any law, statute, rule or regulation or any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or Governmental Authority, except in the case of any contraventions that would not reasonably be expected, enter individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) will conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (except pursuant to the Security Documents or Permitted Liens) upon any of the property or assets of any Credit Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the

-74-

terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, credit agreement or loan agreement, or any other material agreement, contract or instrument, in each case to which any Credit Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its property or assets is bound or to which it may be subject, except for any such contravention, breach, default, conflict or Lien that would not reasonably be expected, either individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (iii) will violate any provision of the certificate or articles of incorporation, certificate of formation, limited liability company agreement or by-laws (or equivalent organizational documents), as applicable, of any Credit Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

8.04. Approvals.

8.05. Financial Statements; Solvency; Projections; No Material Adverse Effect.

(a) The audited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower at December 31, 2014 and the related consolidated statements of income and cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity of the Borrower for the period ended on such date furnished to the Lenders on or prior to the Closing Date, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Borrower as of such date. All such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied except to the extent provided in the notes to said financial statements and subject, in the case of the unaudited financial statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes.

(b) On and as of the Closing Date, after giving effect to the Transaction and to all Indebtedness being incurred or assumed and Liens created by the Credit Parties in connection therewith, (i) the sum of the Indebtedness (including Contingent Obligations) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, does not exceed the fair value of the present assets (at a fair valuation) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (ii) the capital of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, is not unreasonably small in relation to the business of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, contemplated as of the Closing Date, (iii) the present fair saleable value of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, is not less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities (including Contingent Obligations) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, on their debts as they become absolute and matured in the ordinary course of business and (iv) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, do not intend to incur, or believe that they will incur, Indebtedness, including current obligations, beyond their ability to pay such Indebtedness as it matures in the ordinary course of business. For the purposes hereof, the amount of any Contingent Obligation at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all of the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that would reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability (irrespective of whether such Contingent Obligations meet the criteria for accrual under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 5).

(c) The Projections made available to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on or prior to the Closing Date have been prepared in good faith and are based on assumptions that the Borrower believes reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, however, that projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, which may be beyond the Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ control, and projections as to future events are not to be viewed as facts or as a guarantee of performance or achievement of any particular results and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by the Projections may differ from the projected results included in such Projections and such differences may be material.

-75-

(d) After giving effect to the Transaction, since the Closing Date, no event, change or condition has occurred that has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

8.06. Litigation. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened in writing (i) with respect to the Credit Documents or (ii) that have a reasonable likelihood of adverse determination, and, if adversely determined, have had, or would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

8.07. True and Complete Disclosure. All written information concerning the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that has been furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection the Transactions (excluding information of a general economic or industry nature), when taken as a whole, is, and all other such written information as supplemented (when furnished) hereafter by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, when taken as a whole, will be, true and accurate in all material respects on the date as of which such information is furnished and does not or will not, when furnished, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make such information (when furnished and taken as a whole) not materially misleading at such time in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, it being understood and agreed that for purposes of this Section 8.07, such factual information shall not include the Projections, any pro forma financial information, the budgets, other forward looking information or information consisting of statements, estimates or forecasts regarding the future condition of the industries in which they operate.

8.08. Margin Regulations. Neither the making of any Loan nor the use of the proceeds thereof nor the occurrence of any other Credit Event will violate the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. None of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is engaged principally, or as one of its material activities, in the business of extending credit for the purposes of buying or carrying Margin Stock.

8.09. Tax Returns and Payments. The Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries has timely filed or caused to be timely filed with the appropriate taxing authority all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns and other statements, forms and reports for taxes (the “Returns”) required to be filed by, or with respect to the income, properties or operations of, the Borrower and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, except where the failure to timely file or cause to be timely filed such Returns would not cause a Material Adverse Effect. The Returns accurately reflect in all material respects all liability for Taxes of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, as applicable, for the periods covered thereby, except as would not, either individually or in the aggregate, cause a Material Adverse Effect. The Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries has paid all taxes and assessments payable by it which have become due, other than (i) those that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and adequately disclosed and fully provided for on the financial statements of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP or (ii) those the failure to pay, either individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. There is no tax assessment proposed in writing against the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that would, if made, have a Material Adverse Effect.

8.10. Compliance with ERISA.

(a) Schedule 8.10 sets forth each Plan as of the Closing Date. Each Plan is in compliance in form and operation with its terms and with ERISA and the Code (including without limitation the Code provisions compliance with which is necessary for any intended favorable tax treatment) and all other applicable laws and regulations, except where any failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. Each Plan (and each related trust, if any) which is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS to the effect that it meets the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of the Code covering all applicable tax law changes or is comprised of a master or prototype plan that has received a favorable opinion letter from the IRS, and to the knowledge of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, nothing has occurred since the date of such determination that would reasonably be expected to result in revocation of such determination (or, in the case of a Plan with no determination, to the knowledge of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, nothing has occurred that would reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the issuance of a favorable determination letter). No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur, other than as would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

-76-

(b) None of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any ERISA Affiliate has incurred a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan, and, if each of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries and each ERISA Affiliate were to withdraw in a complete withdrawal as of the date this assurance is given or deemed given, the aggregate withdrawal liability that would be incurred would not reasonably be expected, either individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) There are no actions, suits or claims pending against or involving a Plan (other than routine claims for benefits) or, to the knowledge of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, which would reasonably be expected to be asserted successfully against any Plan and, if so asserted successfully, would reasonably be expected either individually or in the aggregate to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) The Borrower, its Restricted Subsidiaries and any ERISA Affiliate have made all material contributions to or under each Plan and Multiemployer Plan required by law within the applicable time limits prescribed thereby, the terms of such Plan or Multiemployer Plan, respectively, or any contract or agreement requiring contributions to a Plan or Multiemployer Plan save where any failure to comply, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

8.11. Security Documents.

(a) The provisions of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement (taken as a whole) are effective to create in favor of the Collateral Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Parties a legal, valid and enforceable (except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law)) security interest in all right, title and interest of the Credit Parties in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Collateral described therein (other than, in the case of proceeds, money not constituting identifiable proceeds of any Collateral), and the Collateral Trustee, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, has (or, after the filing of UCC-1 financing statements in the office and with the information specified by the Credit Parties in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the payment of all applicable fees and the taking of such other actions as are required by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, will have) a fully perfected security interest in all right, title and interest in all of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Collateral described therein (if and to the extent a security interest in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Collateral can be perfected by the filing of UCC-1 financing statements and the other actions required by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), superior and prior to the rights of all third Persons and subject to no other Liens other than Permitted Liens.

(b) The recordation of the grants of security interest in patents and the grants of security interest in trademarks in the respective forms attached to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case, in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, together with filings on Form UCC-1 made pursuant to the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement and payment of all applicable fees, will create, as may be perfected by such filing and recordation, a perfected security interest in the trademark registrations and patents that are part of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Collateral, and the recordation of the grant of security interest in copyrights substantially in the form attached to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with the United States Copyright Office, together with filings on Form UCC-1 made pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, will create, as may be perfected by such filings and recordation, a perfected security interest in the copyright registrations that are a part of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement Collateral.

(c) Upon filing or recording, as applicable, with the appropriate recording office, each Mortgage shall create, as security for the obligations purported to be secured thereby, a legal, valid and enforceable (except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law)) perfected security interest in and mortgage Lien on the respective Mortgaged Property in favor of the Collateral Trustee (or such other trustee as may be required or desired under local law) for the benefit of the Secured Parties, superior and prior to the rights of all third Persons and subject to no other Liens other than Permitted Liens.

8.19. Anti-Terrorism Laws; OFAC; FCPA. Neither any Credit Party nor any of its Subsidiaries, nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents, is a Sanctioned Person. Neither any Credit Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is in violation of (a) the Sanctions, (b) the USA PATRIOT ACT (Title III of Pub.

All such security interests and Mortgages shall be granted pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Collateral Trustee and the Borrower and shall constitute valid and enforceable (except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law)) under applicable domestic law and perfected security interests, hypothecations and Mortgages superior to and prior to the rights of all third Persons and enforceable against third parties and subject to no other Liens except for Permitted Liens.

-83-

Mortgages, the filing of UCC financing statements and delivery of stock and membership interest certificates) as may be necessary in the reasonable opinion of the Collateral Trustee to vest in the Collateral Trustee (or in any representative of the Collateral Trustee designated by it) valid and perfected Liens to the extent required by the Credit Documents, and to otherwise comply with the requirements in this Section 9.10 or the Security Documents and (III) deliver or cause each such Domestic Subsidiary that is required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor (and the parent of each such Domestic Subsidiary that is a Subsidiary Guarantor) to deliver any and all certificates representing Equity Interests (to the extent certificated) and intercompany notes (to the extent certificated) that are required to be pledged pursuant to Security Documents, accompanied by undated stock powers or other appropriate instruments of transfer executed in blank.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.10, the Administrative Agent shall not require perfection in, and the Borrower shall not be required to perfect, any assets as to which the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall reasonably determine that the cost, burden, difficulty or consequences of perfecting a security interest in such asset is excessive in relation to the value of the security to be afforded thereby.

(f) No Credit Party shall be required to obtain control agreements or perfect the Lien granted to the Collateral Trustee by “control” with respect to any Collateral (including deposit accounts, securities accounts, etc.) other than, to the extent constituting Collateral, certificated Equity Interests of the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries and promissory notes.

(g) No Credit Party shall be required to obtain landlord lien waivers, bailment lien waivers or estoppels letters with respect to any leased property of such Credit Party.

9.11. Designation of Subsidiaries.

(a) The Borrower may, by an Officer’s Certificate, at any time designate any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or designate (or re-designate, as the case may be) any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that (i) immediately before and after such designation (or re-designation), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) in the case of the designation of a Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the Subsidiary to be so designated does not (directly, or indirectly, through its Subsidiaries) at such time own any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of, or own or hold any lien on any property of, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. The designation of any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall constitute an Investment by the Borrower therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value as reasonably determined by the Borrower in good faith of the Borrower’s or its Subsidiary’s (as applicable) Investment therein and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the provisions of Section 10.03 or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Borrower. Such designation shall only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute, at the time of designation, the incurrence of any Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time and a return on any Investment by the Borrower in Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value as reasonably determined by the Borrower at the date of such designation of the Borrower’s or its Subsidiary’s (as applicable) Investment in such Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 10.04, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the most recently-ended Test Period. If, at any time, any Unrestricted Subsidiary remains a Subsidiary of the Borrower, but fails to meet the requirements set forth in the definition of Unrestricted Subsidiary or clause (ii) of the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 9.11(a) as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for the purposes of this Agreement and any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary as of such date.

-84-

(b) The Borrower may, by an Officer’s Certificate, at any time designate any Restricted Subsidiary as an Excluded Project Subsidiary or designate (or re-designate, as the case may be) any Excluded Project Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary that is not an Excluded Project Subsidiary; provided that (i) immediately before and after such designation (or re-designation), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) in the case of the designation of a Subsidiary as an Excluded Project Subsidiary, the Subsidiary to be so designated does not (directly, or indirectly, through its Subsidiaries) at such time own any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of, or own or hold any lien on any property of, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. The designation of any Subsidiary as an Excluded Project Subsidiary shall constitute an Investment by the Borrower therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value as reasonably determined by the Borrower in good faith of the Borrower’s or its Subsidiary’s (as applicable) Investment therein and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the provisions of Section 10.03 or under one or more clauses of the definition of Permitted Investments, as determined by the Borrower. Such designation shall only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Excluded Project Subsidiary. The designation of any Excluded Project Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary that is not an Excluded Project Subsidiary shall constitute, at the time of designation, the incurrence of any Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time that would otherwise only have been permitted to have been incurred by an Excluded Project Subsidiary and a return on any Investment by the Borrower in Excluded Project Subsidiaries pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value as reasonably determined by the Borrower in good faith at the date of such designation of the Borrower’s or its Subsidiary’s (as applicable) Investment in such Subsidiary, and such designation will only be permitted if such Indebtedness is permitted under Section 10.04, calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred at the beginning of the most recently-ended Test Period. If, at any time, any Excluded Project Subsidiary remains a Subsidiary of the Borrower, but fails to meet the requirements set forth in the definition of Excluded Project Subsidiary or clause (ii) of the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 9.11(b) as an Excluded Project Subsidiary, it will thereafter cease to be an Excluded Project Subsidiary for the purposes of this Agreement and, unless it is, or has been, designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary at or prior to the time of such failure, any then outstanding Indebtedness of such Subsidiary that would otherwise only have been permitted to have been incurred by an Excluded Project Subsidiary will be deemed to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary that is not an Excluded Project Subsidiary as of such date.

9.12. Ratings. The Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain (i) a public corporate family rating (but not a specific rating) of the Borrower and a rating (but not a specific rating) of each Class of the Loans existing on the Closing Date, in each case from ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, and (ii) a public corporate credit rating (but not a specific rating) of the Borrower and a rating (but not a specific rating) of each Class of the Loans existing on the Closing Date, in each case from S&P (it being understood and agreed that “commercially reasonable efforts” shall in any event include the payment by the Borrower of customary rating agency fees.

10.01. Liens.

(xxii) Indebtedness (A) representing deferred compensation or similar obligations to employees incurred in the ordinary course of business and (B) consisting of obligations under deferred compensation or other similar arrangements incurred by such Person in connection with any Permitted Investment;

(xxiii) the incurrence by the Borrower and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding (as measured on the date of each incurrence of Indebtedness pursuant to this clause (xxiii), but at that time including for purposes of calculation any then outstanding Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance, replace, defease or discharge any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (xxiii)), not to exceed the greater of (A) $500,000,000 and (B) 5.0% of Consolidated Total Assets; and

(xxiv) Indebtedness incurred under the Secured Trading Facility or similar Indebtedness under secured trading facilities entered into on or after the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount under this clause (xxiv) not to exceed $1,300,000,000.

(c) The Borrower will not incur, and will not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to incur any Indebtedness (including Permitted Debt) that is contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor unless such Indebtedness is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Obligations on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Borrower solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a first or junior Lien basis.

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 10.04, in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in Section 10.04(b), or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to Section 10.04(a), the Borrower will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness, other than Indebtedness incurred under Section 2.15 or 10.04(b)(i)(B) on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 10.04. Indebtedness under this Agreement outstanding on the Closing Date will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (i) of Section 10.04(b). The accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, and the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock for purposes of this Section 10.04; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in Fixed Charges of the Borrower as accrued.

(e) For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar-denominated restriction on the incurrence of Indebtedness, the U.S. dollar-equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency will be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was incurred; provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such refinancing would cause the applicable U.S. dollar-dominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such U.S. dollar-dominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of the Indebtedness being refinanced.

12.01. Appointment. The Lenders hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Citibank, N.A. as Administrative Agent (for purposes of this Section 12 and Section 13.01, the term “Administrative Agent” also shall include Citibank, N.A. in its capacity as Collateral Trustee pursuant to the Security Documents) to act as specified herein and in the other Credit Documents. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance of such Note shall be deemed irrevocably to authorize, the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein or therein and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental or related thereto. The Administrative Agent may perform any of its respective duties hereunder by or through its officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates.

12.02. Nature of Duties.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, agents, employees or Affiliates shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it or them hereunder or

-104-

under any other Credit Document or in connection herewith or therewith, unless caused by its or any of their gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). The duties of the Administrative Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature, the Administrative Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or the holder of any Note and nothing in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Credit Document, the Arrangers are named as such for recognition purposes only, and in its capacity as such shall have no powers, duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, it being understood and agreed that the Arrangers shall be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of the Administrative Agent as, and to the extent, provided for under Sections 12.06 and 13.01. Without limitation of the foregoing, the Arrangers shall not, solely by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Documents, have any fiduciary relationship or other implied relationship in respect of any Lender or any other Person.

12.03. Lack of Reliance on the Administrative Agent. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates has made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Credit Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor and any other Credit Party and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, each Lender and the holder of each Note, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with the making and the continuance of the Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender or the holder of any Note for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default, and shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, assets, operations, properties, financial condition, prospects or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Credit Party that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.

12.04. Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent requests instructions from the Required Lenders with respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Credit Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders, and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future

-105-

holders of the Loans. Without limiting the foregoing, neither any Lender nor the holder of any Note shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Credit Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders.

12.05. Reliance. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note, writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, order, electronic mail message, telephone message or other electronic medium signed, or other document or conversation sent or made by any Person that the Administrative Agent believed to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the Lender specified in the Register with respect to any amount owing hereunder as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.

12.06. Indemnification. To the extent the Administrative Agent (or any affiliate thereof) is not reimbursed and indemnified by the Borrower, and without relieving the Borrower of its obligation to do so, the Lenders agree to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any affiliate thereof) in proportion to their respective “percentage” as used in determining the Required Lenders (determined as if there were no Defaulting Lenders) on the date such indemnification is sought (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their respective portions of the Total Commitments in effect immediately prior to such date) for and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, suits, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may at any time (including at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent (or any affiliate thereof) in any way relating to or arising out of performing its duties hereunder or under any other Credit Document or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Credit Document; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, suits, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s (or such affiliate’s) gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or a material breach of the obligations of the Administrative Agent (or any of its directors, officers, employees, partners, agents and other representatives) under the Credit Documents, in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision. The Agreements in this Section 12.06 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

12.07. The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its obligation to make Loans, or issue or participate in Letters of Credit, under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the rights and powers specified herein for a “Lender” and may exercise the same rights and powers as though it were not performing the duties specified herein; and the term “Lender,” “Majority Lenders,” “Required Lenders,” “Required Revolving Lenders” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, include the Administrative Agent in its respective individual capacities. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, investment banking, trust or other business with, or provide debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party (or any Person engaged in a similar business with any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof) as if they were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

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

Each Lender (a) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or any other intercreditor agreement (if entered into) and (b) hereby authorizes and instructs the Administrative Agent and Collateral Trustee to enter into the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or any other intercreditor agreement, as applicable (and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, such agreements in connection with the incurrence by any Credit Party of any Indebtedness permitted hereunder and which is to be equally and ratably secured by the Collateral or any Indebtedness permitted hereunder and which is to be secured on a pari passu or junior priority basis by the Collateral, in order to permit such Indebtedness to be secured by a valid, perfected Lien (with such priority as may be designated by the Borrower or relevant Restricted Subsidiary, to the extent such priority is permitted hereunder)), and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations to the provisions thereof. The foregoing provisions are intended as an inducement to any potential provider of Indebtedness as described above to extend credit to the Credit Parties and such providers of Indebtedness are intended third-party beneficiaries of such provisions and the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor agreement as contemplated above.

To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee, any Issuing Lender, any Arranger, any Lender or any of their Affiliates set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. This Section 13.01(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(b) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee, an Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 13.01, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee, such Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, in proportion to such Lender’s respective “percentage” as used in determining the Required Lenders (determined as if there were no Defaulting Lenders) determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought (or, the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with their respective portions of the Total Commitments in effect immediately prior to such date) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee, an Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender in their capacity as such.

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim (except as contemplated by the proviso to the second succeeding sentence) against any Indemnified Person or any party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, punitive or incidental damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement

-110-

or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit, or the use of the proceeds of the foregoing. No Indemnified Person shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, including, without limitation, SyndTrak, IntraLinks, the internet, email or similar electronic transmission systems, in each case, except to the extent any such damages are found in a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or material breach of any Credit Document by, such Indemnified Person (or its officers, directors, employees or Affiliates). None of the Indemnified Persons or the Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates or the respective directors, officers, employees and agents of the foregoing shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages in connection with this Agreement, the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; provided, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Borrower’s indemnification and reimbursement obligations to the extent set forth herein in respect of damages incurred or paid by an Indemnified Person to a third party. The Borrower shall not be liable for any settlement of any legal proceeding effected without its consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with the Borrower’s written consent, or if there is a final judgment for the plaintiff against an Indemnified Person in any such legal proceeding, the Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person in the manner set forth above. The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Person (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened legal proceeding against such Indemnified Person in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person unless (a) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such legal proceeding and (b) such settlement does not include any statement as to any admission.

13.02. Right of Setoff.

Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such application.

13.03. Notices.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including .pdf, telegraphic, telecopier or cable communication) and mailed, telegraphed, telecopied, cabled or delivered: (i) if to any Credit Party, at the address specified opposite its signature below or in the other relevant Credit Documents; (ii) if to any Lender, at its address specified on Schedule 1.01(a); and (iii) if to the Administrative Agent, at the Notice Office or, as to any Credit Party or the Administrative Agent, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto and, as to each Lender, at such other address as shall be designated by such Lender in a written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. All such notices and communications shall, when mailed, telegraphed, telecopied, or cabled or sent by overnight courier, be effective when received if received during the recipient’s normal business hours.

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

13.04. Benefit of Agreement; Assignments; Participations.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective permitted successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights, obligations or interest hereunder or under the other Credit Documents without the prior written consent of the Lenders and; provided, further, that, although any Lender may grant participations to Loan Participants in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder (and may not transfer or assign all or any portion of its Commitments hereunder except as provided in Sections 2.13 and 13.04(c)) and the Loan Participant shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder and; provided, further, that no Lender shall transfer or grant any participation under which the Loan Participant shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan, Note or Letter of Credit (unless such Letter of Credit is not extended beyond the applicable Maturity Date) in which such Loan Participant is participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates, which shall not be considered to be a reduction in the rate of interest or fees) or reduce the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of the Loan Participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment or a mandatory prepayment of the Loans shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment (or the available portion thereof) or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any Loan Participant if the Loan Participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof), (ii) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of the Security Documents or all or substantially all of the value of the guarantees provided by the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder in which such Loan Participant is participating. In the case of any such participation, the Loan Participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (the Loan Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the Loan Participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.

(b) (i) Any Issuing Lender may assign to one or more commercial banks that issue letters of credit in the ordinary course of business, all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the unused portion of its Letter of Credit Commitment at any time with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(A) The Borrower (such consent deemed to have been made with respect to any assignment if the Borrower has not responded within twenty (20) Business Days after delivery of notice of such assignment to an Authorized Officer of the Borrower); provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required if a Specified Default has occurred and is continuing; and

(B) the Administrative Agent.

(ii) The parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent).

-112-

(c) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (c)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees constituting an Eligible Transferee (“Assignees”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (including for purposes of this Section 13.04(c), participations in Letters of Credit and in Swingline Loans at the time owing to it)) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:

(A) the Borrower (such consent deemed to have been made with respect to any assignment if the Borrower has not responded within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of notice of such assignment by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower); provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for (i) with respect to an assignment related to Revolving Loan Commitments or Revolving Loans to a Revolving Lender or an Affiliate of a Revolving Lender engaged in making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in revolving loans in the ordinary course of its activities and which Affiliate is commonly used by the assigning Lender to fund revolver borrowings of large corporate borrowers, (ii) with respect to Incremental Term Loans, to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (iii) if a Specified Default has occurred and is continuing, any Assignee;

(B) the Administrative Agent;

(D) the Swingline Lender; provided that no consent of the Swingline Lender shall be required for any assignment not related to Revolving Loan Commitments or Revolving Loans or any assignment to a Revolving Lender or an Affiliate of a Revolving Lender.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary set forth herein, no assignment of any Loans or Commitments may be made to the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower.

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption Agreement with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than an amount of $5,000,000 and shall be in increments of an amount of $1,000,000 in excess thereof unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents; provided that such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any;

(B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect to waive such processing and recordation fee; and

(C) no such transfer or assignment will be effective until recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register pursuant to Section 13.12.

This paragraph (c) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Classes on a non-pro rata basis among such Classes. To the extent of any assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(c), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned Commitments and outstanding Loans. At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(c) to a Person which is not already a Lender hereunder, the respective assignee Lender shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, provide to the Borrower the appropriate IRS Forms and documentation under FATCA described in Section 5.04(f). To the extent that an assignment of all or any portion of a Lender’s Commitments and related outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 2.13 or this Section 13.04(c) would, at the time of such assignment, result in increased costs under Section 2.10 or 3.06 from those being charged by the respective assigning Lender prior to such assignment,

-113-

or additional sums pursuant to Section 5.04(a), then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower, in accordance with and pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective assignment) or such additional sums.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Loans and Notes hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank or such central bank, any Lender may pledge all or any portion of its Loans and Notes to its trustee or to a collateral agent providing credit or credit support to such Lender in support of its obligations to such trustee, such collateral agent or a holder of such obligations, as the case may be. No pledge pursuant to this clause (d) shall release the transferor Lender from any of its obligations hereunder.

(e) Any Lender which assigns all of its Commitments and/or Loans hereunder in accordance with Section 13.04(c) shall cease to constitute a “Lender” hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.06, 5.04, 12.06, 13.01 and 13.06), which shall survive as to such assigning Lender.

(f) [Reserved].

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided, that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement (including its obligations under Section 2.10, 2.11 or 5.04), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Credit Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and with the payment of a processing fee of $3,500 (which processing fee may be waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(h) The Borrower agrees that each Loan Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 3.06 and 5.04 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 5.04(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.04(f) shall be delivered by the Loan Participant to its participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment; provided that such Loan Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.13 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.10, 3.06 or 5.04, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive. 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 Loan Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Loan Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Credit 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 Loan Participant or any information relating to a Loan Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person, except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall

-114-

treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

13.05. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee, any Issuing Lender or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower or any other Credit Party and the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee, any Issuing Lender or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee, any Issuing Lender or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Trustee, any Issuing Lender or any Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

13.06. Payments Pro Rata.

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

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

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

13.07. GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN ANY MORTGAGE, BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS TO THE EXTENT THAT THE SAME ARE NOT MANDATORILY APPLICABLE BY STATUTE AND WOULD REQUIRE OR PERMIT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

-115-

AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES (TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW) ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURTS LACK PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER SUCH PARTY, AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM, IN ANY LEGAL ACTION PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT BROUGHT IN ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS, THAT SUCH COURTS LACK PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER SUCH PARTY. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO SUCH PARTY AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH OPPOSITE ITS SIGNATURE BELOW, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE 30 DAYS AFTER SUCH MAILING. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES (TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW) ANY OBJECTION TO SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS AND FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS WAS IN ANY WAY INVALID OR INEFFECTIVE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF (i) ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR (ii) THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR THE HOLDER OF ANY NOTE TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST THE BORROWER IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

(b) EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES (TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW) ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO IN CLAUSE (a) ABOVE AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

13.08. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of a counterpart via facsimile or other electronic transmission shall constitute delivery of an original counterpart. A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

13.09. Headings Descriptive. The headings of the several sections and subsections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

13.10. Amendment or Waiver; etc.

(a) Neither this Agreement nor any other Credit Document nor any terms hereof or thereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated unless such change, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by the respective Credit Parties party hereto or thereto and the Required Lenders (although additional parties may be added to (and annexes may be modified to reflect such additions), and Subsidiaries of the Borrower may be released from, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the other Security Documents in accordance with the provisions hereof and thereof without the consent of the other Credit Parties party thereto or the Required Lenders); provided that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall, without the consent of each directly and adversely affected Lender (but not the Required Lenders) (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note or extend the stated expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the applicable Maturity Date of such Lender holding such Loan or Note or (ii) reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce (or forgive) the principal

-116-

amount thereof of such Lender holding such Loan or Note; provided, further, that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall, without the consent of each Lender (i) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all the Security Documents or all or substantially all of the value of the guarantees provided by the Subsidiary Guarantors under the Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents), (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 13.10(a) which would result in the reduction of the voting thresholds specified herein (except for technical amendments with respect to additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement which afford the protections to such additional extensions of credit of the type provided to the Initial Revolving Loan Commitments on the Closing Date or as otherwise provided herein), or (iii) reduce the “majority” voting threshold specified in the definition of “Required Lenders” or “Required Revolving Lenders” (it being understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the extensions of Initial Revolving Loan Commitments are included on the Closing Date) or change any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; provided, further, that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall (i) increase the Commitments of any Lender over the amount thereof then in effect without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Total Commitment or a mandatory repayment or commitment reduction of Loans shall not constitute an increase of the Commitment of any Lender, and that an increase in the available portion of any Commitment of any Lender shall not constitute an increase of the Commitment of such Lender), (ii) without the consent of each Issuing Lender, amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 3 (as applies to such Issuing Lender) or adversely alter its rights or obligations with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it under this Agreement, (iii) without the consent of the Swingline Lender, adversely alter the Swingline Lender’s rights or obligations with respect to Swingline Loans under this Agreement, (iv) without the consent of the Administrative Agent, amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 12 or any other provision as same relates to the rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent, (v) without the consent of Collateral Trustee, amend, modify or waive any provision relating to the rights or obligations of the Collateral Trustee and (vi) without the consent of the Majority Lenders of the respective Class affected thereby, amend the definition of “Majority Lenders” to reduce the voting threshold (it being understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Majority Lenders on substantially the same basis as the extensions of Loans and Commitments are included on the Closing Date).

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent (and, if their rights or obligations are affected thereby, each Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender) if (i) by the terms of such agreement the Commitment of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment and (ii) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment (including pursuant to an assignment to a replacement Lender in accordance with Section 13.04) in full of the principal of and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement and (y) this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (A) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with the Initial Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (B) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders.

(c) In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended or amended and restated with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender which will have credit exposure thereunder provided however, that the consent of each applicable Swingline Lender and each applicable Issuing Lender shall not be required to the extent of any corresponding reduction of Swingline Commitments or Letter of Credit Commitments in connection with such amendment and restatement, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Revolving Loan Commitments to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Revolving Loan Commitments (and related outstandings) of a given Class (the “Refinanced Revolving Loan Commitments”) with a replacement Revolving Loan Commitment tranche denominated in Dollars (the “Replacement Revolving Loan Commitments”), respectively, hereunder; provided that (i) the aggregate amount of Replacement

-117-

Revolving Loan Commitments shall not exceed the Revolving Loan Commitments being replaced, and (ii) the respective Replacement Revolving Loan Commitments shall otherwise meet the then applicable requirements contained in Section 2.16 as same would have applied if the respective Replacement Revolving Loan Commitments had instead been structured as an Extension (for this purpose assuming that the respective Lenders hereunder had agreed to the terms of the extension as opposed to a replacement pursuant to this clause (c)).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.10, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender agreeing to make Incremental Term Loans may, in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.15, enter into an Incremental Amendment without the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that after the execution and delivery by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each such Lender of such Incremental Amendment, such Incremental Amendment may thereafter only be modified in accordance with the requirements of Section 13.10(a).

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.10, Security Documents (including any Additional Security Documents), intercreditor agreements and related documents executed in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be amended, modified, supplemented and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Person if such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local Law (including any foreign law or regulatory requirement) or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities, inconsistency, omissions, mistakes or defects or (iii) to cause such Security Document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

(f) If following the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent and any Credit Party shall have jointly identified an inconsistency, obvious error, or mistake or any error, mistake or omission of a technical nature, in each case, in any provision of the Credit Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Credit Parties shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Credit Documents and, in cases not covered by preceding clause (e), if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 13.10 or elsewhere in this Agreement, the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Lender may be increased or decreased solely with the written consent of such Issuing Lender and the Borrower and upon the provision of such written consent of such increase or decrease to the Administrative Agent.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, only the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders shall be necessary to amend, waive or modify the terms and provisions of Section 10.07 and the proviso to Section 11.03 (and related definitions as used in such Sections, but not as used in other Sections of this Agreement) and no such amendment, waiver or modification of any such terms or provisions (and related definitions as used in such Sections, but not as used in other Sections of this Agreement) shall be permitted without the consent of the Required Revolving Lenders.

13.11. Survival. All indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Sections 2.10, 2.11, 3.06, 5.04, 12.06 and 13.01 shall survive the execution, delivery and termination of this Agreement and the Notes and the making and repayment of the Obligations.

13.12. Register. The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as its agent, solely for purposes of this Section 13.12, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Commitments from time to time of each of the Lenders, the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of, or stated interest on, the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of the Commitments of such Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan made pursuant to such Commitments shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Commitments and Loans and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Commitments and Loans shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Commitments and Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register upon and only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 13.04(b).

-118-

Upon such acceptance and recordation, the assignee specified therein shall be treated as a Lender for all purposes of this Agreement. Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to the Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall surrender the Note (if any) evidencing such Loan, and thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender at the request of any such Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (solely with regards to Commitments or Loans of such Lender) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

13.13. Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees that it will not disclose (without the prior written consent of the Borrower) (other than to its employees, agents, representatives, auditors, advisors or counsel, its Affiliates involved in the Transaction or the administration of the Credit Documents on a “need to know” basis or to another Lender if such Lender or such Lender’s holding or parent company in its reasonable discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information; provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 13.13 to the same extent as such Lender) any information with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which is now or in the future furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document; provided that any Lender may disclose any such information (i) as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this Section 13.13, (ii) as may be required in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state or Federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors (provided that, except with respect to disclosures to supervisory or regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over such Lender, the applicable Lender shall give the Borrower prompt notice of such disclosure to the extent permitted by law, rule or regulation), (iii) as may be required in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation (provided that the applicable Lender shall give the Borrower prompt notice of such disclosure to the extent permitted by law, rule or regulation), (iv) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender or as requested by a Governmental Authority (provided that, except with respect to disclosures to supervisory or regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over such Lender, the applicable Lender shall give the Borrower prompt notice of such disclosure to the extent permitted by law, rule or regulation), (v) to the extent such information is received by the Administrative Agent or Lender from a third party that is not known by the Administrative Agent or such Lender to be subject to confidentiality arrangements to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, (vi) to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, (vii) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in any swap, hedge or similar agreement or to any such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (other than a Disqualified Institution), so long as such contractual counterparty (or such professional advisor) agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 13.13, (viii) to any prospective or actual Eligible Transferee in connection with any contemplated transfer or participation of any of the Notes or Commitments or any interest therein by such Lender otherwise permitted by this Agreement; provided that such prospective transferee agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions contained in this Section 13.13 or provisions no less restrictive than those contained in this Section 13.13, (ix) for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense, (x) solely to the extent that such information is independently developed by the Administrative Agent or such Lender without any confidential information provided by (or on behalf of) any Credit Party or (xi) on a confidential basis, to any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the facilities hereunder.

13.14. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Credit Document), the Borrower and each other Credit Party acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i)(A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders are arms-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, each other Credit Party and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders, (B) each of the Borrower and each other Credit Party has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower and each other Credit Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Credit Documents; (ii) (A) the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders are, and have been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) none of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger nor any Lender has any obligation to the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to

-119-

the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents or as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower, the other Credit Parties and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger nor any Lender has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates.

13.15. PATRIOT ACT. Each Lender subject to the PATRIOT Act hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and the other Credit Parties and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and the other Credit Parties in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

13.16. Post-Closing Actions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the other Credit Documents, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall be required to take the actions specified in Schedule 13.16 attached hereto as promptly as practicable, and in any event within the time periods set forth in Schedule 13.16 as such time periods may be extended in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Trustee, as applicable. The provisions of Schedule 13.16 shall be deemed incorporated by reference in this Section 13.16 as fully as if set forth herein in its entirety.

All conditions precedent, representations and covenants contained in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be deemed modified to the extent necessary to effect the foregoing (and to permit the taking of the actions described above within the time periods required above, rather than as elsewhere provided in the Credit Documents); provided that (x) to the extent any representation and warranty would not be true because the foregoing actions were not taken on the Closing Date, the respective representation and warranty shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects at the time the respective action is taken (or was required to be taken) in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.16 and (y) all representations and warranties relating to the Security Documents shall be required to be true in all material respects immediately after the actions required to be taken by this Section 13.16 have been taken. The acceptance of the benefits of each Credit Event shall constitute a representation, warranty and covenant by the Borrower to each of the Lenders that the actions required pursuant to this Section 13.16 will be, or have been, taken within the relevant time periods referred to in this Section 13.16 and that, at such time, all representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall then be true and correct in all material respects without any modification pursuant to this Section 13.16.

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

13.18. Lender Action. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy pursuant to any of the Credit Documents against any Credit Party or any other obligor in each case, under any of the Credit Documents (including the exercise of any right of set-off, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help (other than any such rights afforded by Section 13.02 hereof)), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Credit Party as a Lender in connection with any of the Credit Documents, unless expressly provided for herein (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 13.02 hereof) or in any other Credit Document, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

13.19. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on the date (the “Effective Date”) on which the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall have signed a counterpart hereof (whether the same or different counterparts) and shall have delivered (by electronic transmission or otherwise) the same to the

-120-

Administrative Agent at the Notice Office or, in the case of the Lenders, shall have given to the Administrative Agent telephonic (confirmed in writing), written or telex notice (actually received) at such office that the same has been signed and mailed to it. The Administrative Agent will give the Borrower and each Lender prompt written notice of the occurrence of the Effective Date.

13.20. Domicile of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or for the account of any office, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender (other than to a Disqualified Institution). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that a transfer of Loans pursuant to this Section 13.20 would, at the time of such transfer, result in increased costs under Section 2.10, 2.11(a), 3.06 or 5.04 from those being charged by the respective Lender prior to such transfer, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay for or otherwise indemnify such Lender for such increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay for and indemnify such Lender for any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective transfer to the extent provided for in Sections 2.10, 2.11(a), 3.06 or 5.04).
