(b)                                 Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments.  The Borrower may, by written notice to the Agent, request up to two term loans (each, a “Delayed Draw Term Loan”) on or after the Closing Date until the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment Expiration Date.  On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, the Lenders with a Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment severally agree to make Delayed Draw Term Loans subject to the following conditions:

(i)                                     the maximum aggregate principal amount of the Delayed Draw Term Loans is $15,000,000 (the “Maximum Delayed Draw Term Loan Amount”);

(iii)                               the terms of each Delayed Draw Term Loan shall be identical to the terms applicable to the Term A Loan;

(iv)                              no Lender shall have any obligation to fund any portion of a Delayed Draw Term Loan required to be funded by any other Lender, but not so funded; and

(v)                                 amounts repaid or prepaid on the Delayed Draw Term Loan may not be reborrowed.

Section 2.02                             Procedures for Borrowings.

(a)                                 Notice to the Agent.  Each Borrowing of Loans shall be made on a Business Day upon written notice from the Borrower to the Agent, which notice shall be received by the Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. New York time at least three Business Days prior to the date of such proposed Borrowing. Each such notice, except as provided in Sections 5.01 and 5.04, shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower, shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit D (a “Notice of Borrowing”).

(b)                                 Notice to the Lenders.  The Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice in writing of each Borrowing, specifying the information contained in the Notice of Borrowing and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing.  On the date of each Borrowing, each Lender shall make available such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing, in same day or immediately available funds, to the Agent for the Agent’s Account, not later than 11:00 A.M. New York time.  Upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article VII and after receipt by the Agent

29

of any such funds, the Agent shall make such funds available to the Borrower pursuant to payment instructions agreed to by the Borrower and the Agent with same day or immediately available funds on such Borrowing date. If any Lender makes available to the Agent funds for any Borrowing as provided in this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Agent because the applicable conditions set forth in Article VII are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

Section 2.03                             Non-Receipt of Funds.  Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on such date in accordance with Section 2.02(b) and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at (a) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (b) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans.  If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period.  If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.  Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Agent.

Section 2.04                             Lending Offices.  The Loans made by each Lender may be made from and maintained at such offices of such Lender (each a “Lending Office”) as such Lender may from time to time designate (whether or not such office is specified on Schedule 1). Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

Section 2.05                             Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a)                                 Notes.  As additional evidence of the Indebtedness of the Borrower to each Lender resulting from the Loans made by such Lender, the Borrower shall, if requested by any Lender, execute and deliver for account of each Lender a promissory note in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, dated the Closing Date, setting forth such Lender’s Term A Loan Commitment or Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment, respectively, as the maximum principal amount thereof (collectively, the “Notes”).

(b)                                 Recordkeeping.  Each Lender and the Agent shall record in its internal records the date and amount of each Loan made, each relevant Interest Period, the amount of principal and interest due and payable from time to time hereunder, each payment thereof and the

30

resulting unpaid principal balance of such Loan.  The accounts or records maintained by the Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error of the amount of Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon.  Any failure so to record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Agent shall control in the absence of demonstrable error.

(ii)                                  in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods, each successive Interest Period shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

(iii)                               if any Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to carry such Interest Period into another calendar month, in which event such Interest Period shall end on the immediately preceding Business Day;

(iv)                              no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Maturity Date;

(v)                                 any Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the ending calendar

(d)                                 Notice to the Borrower and the Lenders.  Each determination by the Agent hereunder of a rate of interest and of any change therein in the absence of demonstrable error shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto.

Section 3.05                             Highest Lawful Rate.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if during any period for which interest is computed hereunder, the applicable interest rate, together with all fees, charges and other payments which are treated as interest under applicable law, as provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, would exceed the maximum rate of interest which may be charged, contracted for, reserved, received or collected by any Lender in connection with this Agreement under applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”), the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay, and such Lender shall not be entitled to charge, collect, receive, reserve or take, interest in excess of the Maximum Rate, and during any such period the interest payable hereunder shall be limited to the Maximum Rate.

(a)                                 Optional Reduction or Termination.  The Borrower may, upon prior notice to the Agent, terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part, as of the date, and in the amount, specified by the Borrower in such notice, any then unused portion of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment; provided that each partial reduction shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or a greater amount which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000.

(b)                                 Adjustment of Commitment Fee; No Reinstatement.  From the effective date of any reduction or termination prior to the Maturity Date, the commitment fee payable under Section 3.03(a) shall be computed on the basis of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments as so reduced or terminated.  Once reduced or terminated, the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments may not be increased or otherwise reinstated.

Section 4.02                             Repayment of the Loans.  The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans on the Maturity Date.

Section 4.03                             Prepayments.

(a)                                 Optional Prepayments.  Subject to Section 5.02, the Borrower may, upon prior notice to the Agent not later than the date three Business Days prior to the proposed day of prepayment, prepay the outstanding amount of the Loans in whole or ratably in part, without premium or penalty; provided that the Borrower may not prepay the Loans at any time that a Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment is outstanding.  Partial prepayments shall be a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or a greater amount which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or, if less, the entire principal amount of the Loans then outstanding).  Each such notice given of any prepayment shall specify the date and amount of the prepayment.  If any such notice is given, the

33

Borrower shall make such prepayment and the prepayment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid.

(b)                                 Mandatory Prepayments.  Within five Business Days of the date of receipt by the Parent Guarantor, the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds, the Loans shall be prepaid in an amount equal to the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Parent Guarantor and the Restricted Subsidiaries may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in assets that are used or useful in its business so long as (i) within five Business Days of receipt of Net Cash Proceeds a Responsible Officer of the Borrower shall have delivered written notice to the Agent of the intent to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds in an amount specified in such notice, (ii) such reinvestment is permitted by Section 10.06 other than Section 10.06(h) and (iii) within 364 days after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, such reinvestment shall have been consummated (as certified by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower in writing to the Agent); provided further, however, that any Net Cash Proceeds not so reinvested shall be immediately applied to the prepayment of the Loans.  For the purpose of this Section 4.03(b), “Net Cash Proceeds” shall not include the first $15,000,000 of such amounts received after the Closing Date.

ARTICLE V
YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

Section 5.01                             Inability to Determine Rates.  If (a) the Agent determines that (i) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of any Loan, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period with respect to a Loan, or (b) the Majority Lenders determine that for any reason that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period with respect to a proposed Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining such Loan, the Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender.  Such notice shall specify the basis for such determination and shall, in the absence of demonstrable error, be conclusive and binding for all purposes.  Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans hereunder shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Loans or Interest Periods) until the Agent (upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders) revokes such notice.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any Notice of Borrowing then submitted by it (to the extent of the affected Loans or Interest Periods).  If the Borrower does not revoke such Notice of Borrowing, the Lenders shall make or convert Loans, as proposed by the Borrower, in the amount specified in the Notice of Borrowing submitted by the Borrower, but such Loans shall be made or converted as Base Rate Loans instead of Eurodollar Rate Loans (to the extent of the affected Eurodollar Rate Loans or Interest Periods).

Section 5.02                             Compensation for Losses.  In addition to such amounts as are required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.03, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender, promptly upon receipt of such Lender’s written request made to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), for all losses, costs and expenses (including any loss or expense incurred by such Lender in obtaining, liquidating or re-employing deposits or other funds to fund or maintain its Loans), if any, which such Lender sustains: (a) if the Borrower repays or prepays any Loan on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan (whether as a result of an optional prepayment,

34

mandatory prepayment, a payment as a result of acceleration or otherwise); (b) if the Borrower fails to borrow any Loan after giving its Notice of Borrowing (other than as a result of the operation of Section 5.01 or 5.04); (c) if the Borrower fails to prepay any Loan after giving its notice of prepayment thereof; or (d) if any Loan is assigned pursuant to Section 5.08 other than on the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for losses incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such loss.  The Borrower shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.  Any such request for compensation shall set forth the basis for requesting such compensation and shall, in the absence of demonstrable error, be conclusive and binding for all purposes.

Section 5.03                             Increased Costs.

(a)                                 Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii)                                  subject any Recipient 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 its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(iii)                               impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender; and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then, upon request of such Lender or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

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

35

(c)                                  Certificates for Reimbursement.  A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d)                                 Delay in Requests.  Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 5.03, no Lender shall demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.03, and the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any such Lender if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements to which it is a party.

Section 5.04                             Illegality.  If any Lender shall determine that the operation of any applicable law has made it unlawful for such Lender or its Lending Office to make, fund or maintain Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate as contemplated by this Agreement, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then such Lender shall promptly give notice of such determination to the Borrower (through the Agent), and (i) the obligation of such Lender to make Loans shall be suspended and (ii) each of such Lender’s outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans shall, if requested by such Lender, be converted into a Base Rate Loan not later than upon expiration of the Interest Period related to such Eurodollar Rate Loan, or, if earlier, on such date as may be specified in such request. Any such determination shall, in the absence of demonstrable error, be conclusive and binding for all purposes.

Section 5.05                             Funding Assumptions.  Solely for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Article V, each Loan made by a Lender whose interest is determined by reference to the Eurodollar Rate (and any related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded at the Eurodollar Rate by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Loan is in fact so funded.

Section 5.06                             Obligation to Mitigate.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.03, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 6.03, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 5.03 or 6.03 or eliminate the illegality referenced in Section 5.04, as the case may be, in the

36

future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

Section 5.07                             Reserves on Eurodollar Rate Loans.  The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the FRB to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan, equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan; provided the Borrower shall have received at least 10 days’ prior written notice (with a copy to the Agent) of such additional interest from such Lender.  If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 5.07, no Lender shall demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.07, and the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any such Lender, if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements to which it is a party.

Section 5.08                             Substitution of Lenders.  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 5.03 or Section 5.07, if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 6.03 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with Section 5.06, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 13.09), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 5.03 or Section 6.03) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:

(a)                                 the Borrower shall have paid to the Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 13.09;

(b)                                 such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 5.02) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(c)                                  in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 5.03 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 6.03, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(d)                                 such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and

37

(e)                                  in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

ARTICLE VI
PAYMENTS

Section 6.01                             Pro Rata Treatment.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each Borrowing hereunder, each Commitment reduction, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of the principal and interest on the Loans, commitment fee and other amounts required hereunder shall be made ratably in accordance with the Pro Rata Shares of the Lenders.

Section 6.02                             Payments.

(a)                                 Payments to Agent.  The Borrower shall make each payment under the Loan Documents, unconditionally in full without set-off, counterclaim or other defense, not later than 1:00 P.M. New York time on the day when due to the Agent in Dollars and in same day or immediately available funds, to the Agent’s Account.  The Agent shall promptly thereafter distribute like funds relating to any payment on account of principal and interest on any Loans, commitment fee or any other amounts payable to the Lenders or to the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, ratably (except as a result of the operation of Articles II or V or this Article VII) to the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, or to the Issuing Bank, as the case may be.

(b)                                 Authorization to Agent.  The Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), and the Borrower hereby authorizes the Agent to, charge any deposit account of the Borrower with the Agent for the amount of such payment which is not made by the time specified in subsection (a).  The Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower after charging any such account.

(c)                                  Payments to Lenders.  The Agent shall promptly thereafter distribute like funds relating to any payment on account of principal and interest on any Loans, commitment fee or any other amounts payable to the Lenders or to the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, ratably (except as a result of the operation of Articles II or V or this Article VII) to the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, or to the Issuing Bank, as the case may be.

(d)                                 Application of Funds Prior to the Exercise of Remedies.  If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (a) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably (to the extent provided herein) among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (b) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably (to the extent provided herein) among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

38

(e)                                  Application of Funds After the Exercise of Remedies.  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, after the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 11.02 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in Section 11.02), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, unless a specific determination is made by the Agent and the Majority Lenders with respect thereto, and subject to Section 6.06, be applied in the following order: (i) first, to any fees, indemnities, costs, expenses and other amounts due the Agent (including interest thereon); (ii) second, to any fees, indemnities, costs, expenses and other amounts due the Lenders (excluding principal and interest); (iii) third, to accrued and unpaid interest on any principal and other Obligations due the Lenders; (iv) fourth, to principal due the Lenders; and (v) fifth, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by applicable law; provided, however, that Excluded Swap Obligations with respect to any Guarantor shall not be paid with amounts received from such Guarantor or its assets, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to payments from other Credit Parties to preserve the allocation to of such payments to the satisfaction of the Obligations in the order otherwise contemplated in this Subsection.

(f)                                   Extension.  Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due, or whenever any Interest Payment Date or any other date specified hereunder would otherwise occur, on a day other than a Business Day, then, except as otherwise provided herein, such payment shall be made, and such Interest Payment Date or other date shall occur, on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fee hereunder.

Section 6.03                             Taxes.

(a)                                 Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be made 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, and in the case of the Borrower shall cause any other applicable Credit Party to pay, the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Credit Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

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

(c)                                  Indemnification by the Credit Parties.  The Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Credit Party to, indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to

39

be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.

(d)                                 Indemnification by the Lenders.  Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Credit Party has not already indemnified the 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 13.09 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this subsection (d).

(e)                                  Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Credit Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 6.03, the Borrower shall, or shall cause such other Credit Party to, deliver to the 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 Agent.

(f)                                   Status of Lenders.

(i)                                     Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 6.03(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii)                                  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

40

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

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

(1)                                 in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN 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 Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN 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;

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

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

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

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

41

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

Each Lender 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 Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g)                                  Treatment of Certain Refunds.  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 6.03 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 6.03), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this subsection (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This subsection (g) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h)                                 Defined Terms.  For purposes of this Section 6.03, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

Section 6.04                             Non-Receipt of Funds.  Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Agent for the account of any of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender, with interest thereon, for each day

from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Agent in connection with the foregoing.

Section 6.05                             Sharing of Payments.  If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its Pro Rata Share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (x) notify the Agent of such fact and (y) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that:

(a)                                 if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and

(b)                                 the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this subsection shall apply).

The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower and each other Credit Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower and such other Credit Party in the amount of such participation.

Section 6.06                             Defaulting Lenders.

(a)                                 Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i)                                     Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definitions of “Majority Lenders,” and in Section 13.01.

(ii)                                  Defaulting Lender Waterfall.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article XI or otherwise or received by the Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.05), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such

43

Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; third, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (A) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (B) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 7.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 6.06(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii)                               Certain Fees.  No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 3.03(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

(b)                                 Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower and the Agent agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

ARTICLE XII
THE AGENT

Section 12.01                      Appointment and Authority.  Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Citibank, N.A. to act on its behalf as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The provisions of this Article XII are solely for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions.  It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law.  Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Section 12.02                      Rights as a Lender.  The Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Agent hereunder in its individual capacity.  Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 12.03                      Exculpatory Provisions.

(a)                                 The Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent:

(i)                                     shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii)                                  shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and

(iii)                               shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any

70

information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

(b)                                 The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 11.02 and 13.01), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment.  The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.

(c)                                  The Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VII or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.

(d)                                 The Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution.

Section 12.04                      Reliance by Agent.  The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon.  In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan.  The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 12.05                      Delegation of Duties.  The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent.  The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. 

71

The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Facility as well as activities as Agent.  The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

Section 12.06                      Resignation of Agent.

(a)                                 The Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time thereof (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, NY, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in New York, NY.  If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Majority Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above.  Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b)                                 If the Person serving as Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Majority Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower and with the consent of the Borrower so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time thereof (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Majority Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c)                                  With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Agent shall continue to hold such Collateral until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above.  Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Agent), and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan

72

Documents.  The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.  After the retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 13.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Agent was acting as Agent.

Section 12.07                      Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 12.08                      Agent May File Proofs of Claim.  In case of the pendency of any Insolvency Proceeding or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Credit Party, the Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated), by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a)                                 to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Agent under Sections 3.03 and 13.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b)                                 to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Agent and, in the event that the Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agent under Sections 3.03 and 13.04.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender to authorize the Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

73

Section 12.09                      Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

(a)                                 Without limiting the provisions of Section 12.09, the Lenders irrevocably authorize the Agent, at its option and in its discretion:

(i)                                     to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Agent under any Loan Document (A) upon termination of all Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations; (B) that is sold or otherwise disposed of or to be sold or otherwise disposed of as part of or in connection with any sale or other disposition permitted under the Loan Documents; or (C) subject to Section 13.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Majority Lenders;

(ii)                                  to release any Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under the Loan Documents.

Upon request by the Agent at any time, the Majority Lenders will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of Collateral, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 12.10.

(b)                                 The Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Credit Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

(c)                                  The Agent is authorized on behalf of all the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Lenders, from time to time to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the Collateral Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the Liens on the Collateral granted pursuant to the Collateral Documents or protect and preserve the Agent’s ability to enforce the Liens or realize upon the Collateral.

Unless the Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an email address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return email or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its email address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, email or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.

76

(c)                                  Change of Address.  Any party hereto may change its address, facsimile number or email address for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto.

(ii)                                  The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.”  The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications.  No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform.  In no event shall the Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, the other Credit Parties, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s, any other Credit Party’s or the Agent’s transmission of communications through the Platform.  “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Credit Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed to the Agent or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through the Platform.

Section 13.03                      No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.  No failure on the part of the Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.  The rights and remedies under the Loan Documents are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges that may otherwise be available to the Agent or any Lender.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Credit Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Agent in accordance with Section 11.02 for the benefit of all the Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) the Agent from exercising on

77

its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 13.05 (subject to the terms of Section 6.05), or (iii) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of any Insolvency Proceeding relative to any Credit Party; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (A) the Majority Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Agent pursuant to Section 11.02 and (B) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii) and (iii) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 6.05, any Lender may, with the consent of the Majority Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Majority Lenders.

Section 13.04                      Costs and Expenses; Indemnification.

(a)                                 Costs and Expenses.  The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent and its Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agent) (but limited to one counsel to the Agent and the Lenders, taken as a whole, one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction, taken as a whole, and solely in the event of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel (and if necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction) to each group of similarly situated affected Lenders), in connection with the syndication of the Facility, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) (provided that U.S. legal expenses in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be subject to the dollar cap set forth in the Expense and Indemnity Letter), (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent or any Lender (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Agent or any Lender), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, (B) in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans, and including in or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, and (C)  in connection with the preservation of and realization upon any of the Collateral, and (iii) all title, appraisal, survey, audit, environmental inspection, consulting, search, recording, filing and similar costs, fees and expenses incurred or sustained by the Agent or any of its Affiliates in connection with the Loan Documents or the Collateral.

(b)                                 Indemnification by the Borrower.  The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Borrower, any Holdco Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary or any of their respective affiliates or shareholders), other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties, arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) actual or alleged presence or release of

78

Hazardous Substances on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any liability under any Environmental Law related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Credit Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Credit Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Borrower or such Credit Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  This Section 13.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c)                                  Reimbursement by Lenders.  To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by it to the Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party thereof, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought based on each Lender’s Pro Rata Share at such time) of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); 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 Agent (or any such sub-agent), or such Related Party acting for the Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity.  The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 13.07.

(d)                                 Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto shall not assert, and hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall have, any claim against any other party hereto (and, in the case of the Credit Parties, any Indemnitee), on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.  No Person referred to in subsection (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(e)                                  Payments.  All amounts due under this Section shall be payable upon demand therefor.

Section 13.05                      Right of Set-Off.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such

79

Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Credit Party against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or such other Credit Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrower or such other Credit Party may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or obligations or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.06 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  The rights of each Lender and its respective Affiliates under this Section 13.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which such Lender or Affiliate may have.  Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower and the Agent promptly after any such set-off and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

Section 13.06                      Survival.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made in any Loan Documents shall, except to the extent otherwise provided therein, survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the making of the Loans and the execution and delivery of the Notes, and shall continue in full force and effect so long as the Lenders have any Commitments, any Loans remain outstanding or any other Obligations remain unpaid or any obligation to perform any other act under any Loan Document remains unsatisfied.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of the Borrower under Sections 5.02, 5.03, 6.03 and 13.04, and of the Lenders under Sections 6.03 and 13.04, and all similar obligations under the other Loan Documents (including all obligations to pay costs and expenses and all indemnity obligations), shall survive the repayment of the Loans and the termination of the Commitments.

Section 13.07                      Obligations Several.  The obligations of the Lenders under the Loan Documents are several.  The failure of any Lender or the Agent to carry out its obligations thereunder shall not relieve any other Lender or the Agent of any obligation thereunder, nor shall any Lender or the Agent be responsible for the obligations of, or any action taken or omitted by, any other Person hereunder or thereunder.  Nothing contained in any Loan Document shall be deemed to cause any Lender or the Agent to be considered a partner of or joint venturer with any other Lender or Lenders, the Agent, any Credit Party.

Section 13.08                      Benefits of Agreement.  The Loan Documents are entered into for the sole protection and benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and assigns.  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 13.09(d)  and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

80

Section 13.09                      Binding Effect; Assignment.

(a)                                 Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Credit Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under any Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection (d) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).

(b)                                 Assignments by Lenders.  Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (in each case with respect to any Facility) any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i)                                     Minimum Amounts.

(A)                               in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it (in each case with respect to any Facility) or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B)                               in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $1,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the Term Loan Facility, unless the Agent otherwise consents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(ii)                                  Proportionate Amounts.  Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment on a non-pro rata basis from the Loans.

(iii)                               Required Consents.  No consent shall be required for any assignment by a Lender except to the extent required by subsection (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

(A)                               the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default pursuant to

81

Sections 11.01(a), (e) or (f) has occurred and is continuing or any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing for more than 30 days at the time of such assignment, or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within 5 Business Days after having received notice thereof; and

(B)                               the consent of the Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of (i)  any unfunded Commitments with respect to the Term Loan Facility if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender with a Commitment in respect of such Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, or (ii) any Term Loans to a Person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund.

(iv)                              Assignment and Assumption.  The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment.  The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v)                                 No Assignment to Certain Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries or (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B).  Prior to an Event of Default pursuant to Sections 11.01(a), (e) or (f), no assignment may be made to a Disqualified Institution.

(vi)                              No Assignment to Natural Persons.  No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

(vii)                           Certain Additional Payments.  In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata portion of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent and each Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata portion of all Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this subsection, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption,

82

the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.02, 5.03, 6.03 and 13.04 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

(c)                                  Register.  The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at one of its offices in United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d)                                 Participations.  Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 13.04(c) with respect to any payments made by such Lender to its Participant(s).

Prior to an Event of Default pursuant to Sections 11.01(a), (e) or (f), no participation may be sold to a Disqualified Institution.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver which would require unanimous consent as described in the second proviso to Section 13.01 that directly affects such Participant.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.02, 5.03

83

and 6.03 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 6.03(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 6.03(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 5.06 and 5.08 as if it were an assignee under subsection (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 5.03 or 6.03, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment is consented to by the Borrower.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 5.08 with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.05 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 6.05 as though it were a Lender.

Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan 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 demonstrable error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e)                                  Certain Pledges.  Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 13.10                      Governing Law.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

Section 13.11                      Submission to Jurisdiction.

(a)                                 Submission to Jurisdiction.  Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against any other party hereto of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or

84

the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.  Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or any other Credit Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(b)                                 Waiver of Venue.  Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in subsection (a) of this Section.  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(c)                                  Service of Process.  Each party hereto irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 13.02(a) (or with respect to the Borrower’s agent, the address specified in Section 13.18).  Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party hereto to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.

Section 13.12                      Waiver of Jury Trial.  EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY).  EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 13.13                      Confidentiality.  Each of the Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to

85

any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) on a confidential basis to (i)  any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the Facility or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Facility, (h) with the consent of the Borrower or (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower.  For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from, or on behalf of, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 13.14                      Entire Agreement.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents reflect the entire agreement among the Borrower, the Lenders and the Agent with respect to the matters set forth herein and therein and supersede any prior agreements, commitments, drafts, communications, discussions and understandings, oral or written, with respect thereto.

Section 13.15                      Payments Set Aside.  To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Credit Party under any Loan Document is made to the Agent or any Lender, or the Agent or any Lender exercises its right of set-off as to any Credit Party, and such payment or the proceeds of such set-off or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such set-off had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Agent in connection with the foregoing.

Section 13.16                      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 Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Affiliates’ understanding, that: (i) (A) the arranging and other services

86

regarding this Agreement provided by the Agent (including in its capacity as arranger) and the Lenders, are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower, each other Credit Party and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agent and the Lenders, on the other hand, (B) each of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties 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 Loan Documents; (ii) (A) the Agent and each Lender are and have been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, have not been, are 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) neither the Agent nor any Lender has any obligation to the Borrower, any other Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Agent, 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 neither the Agent 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.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower (for itself and on behalf of the other Credit Parties) hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Agent or any Lender with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

Section 13.17                      Severability.  Whenever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under all applicable laws and regulations.  If, however, any provision of any of the Loan Documents shall be prohibited by or invalid under any such law or regulation in any jurisdiction, it shall, as to such jurisdiction, be deemed modified to conform to the minimum requirements of such law or regulation, or, if for any reason it is not deemed so modified, it shall be ineffective and invalid only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without affecting the remaining provisions of such Loan Document, or the validity or effectiveness of such provision in any other jurisdiction.  Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.17, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited under or in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding, as determined in good faith by the Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 13.18                      Appointment of Process Agent.  The Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints CCS Global Solutions, Inc. (the “Process Agent”), with an office on the date hereof at ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, as its authorized agent with all powers necessary to receive on its behalf service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents in any of the courts in and of the State of New York.  Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the Borrower in care of the Process Agent at the Process Agent’s above address and the Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf and agrees that the failure of the Process Agent to give any notice of any such service to the Borrower shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or of any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon.  As an alternative method of service, the Borrower also irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or

87

proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to the Borrower at its address specified in Section 13.02(a).  If for any reason CCS Global Solutions, Inc. shall cease to act as Process Agent, the Borrower shall appoint forthwith, in the manner provided for herein, a successor Process Agent qualified to act as an agent for service of process with respect to all courts in and of the State of New York and acceptable to Agent.

Section 13.19                      Waiver of Immunity.  To the extent that the Borrower has or hereafter may acquire any right of immunity from jurisdiction of any court on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise with respect to itself or its property, the Borrower hereby irrevocably waives such immunity for itself and for its property in respect of all of its obligations under the Loan Documents.

Section 13.20                      Translation.  Each notice, communication or other document delivered under the Loan Documents by the Borrower unless submitted in the English language, shall be accompanied by an English translation thereof and the English version shall govern in the event of any conflict with the non-English version thereof; provided that if any such conflict should arise with respect to any authorizations or approvals of any governmental agency or authority, any constitutional, statutory or other official document, or any Loan Document not originally executed in English, then the non-English language version thereof shall govern.

Section 13.21                      Payment in Dollars.  Payment in Dollars of all amounts due under the Loan Documents is of the essence, and Dollars shall be the currency of account in all events.  The payment obligations of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall not be discharged by an amount paid in another currency or in another place, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount so paid on conversion to Dollars and transfer to the Lenders and the Agent under normal banking procedures (after premium and costs of exchange) does not yield the amount of Dollars due under such Loan Document.  If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Lenders and the Agent could purchase Dollars with the Other Currency on the Business Day preceding the date on which the final judgment is given.  The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to Agent or any Lender (an “Entitled Person”) under such Loan Document shall, notwithstanding any judgment in such Other Currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the business day following receipt by Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Other Currency, such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase Dollars with the Other Currency.  If the Dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in Dollars, the Borrower agrees, as a separate and independent obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Entitled Person against such loss.

Section 13.22                      Counterparts.

(a)                                 Counterparts; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  Except as provided in Section 7.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Agent and when the Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto.  Delivery of an executed

88

counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or in electronic (i.e., “pdf” or “tif”) format shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

(b)                                 Electronic Execution of Documents.  The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import in any Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping systems, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 13.23                      USA PATRIOT Act Notice.  Each Lender that is subject to the Act (as defined below) and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Act.  The Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Act.
