SECTION 2.02.                                        Loans and Borrowing.  (a)  Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments.  The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

(b)                                 Subject to Section 2.13, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of  Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith.  Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan (in which case all payments of principal and interest with respect to such Loan shall be owed to such branch or Affiliate); provided that any exercise of such option shall not reduce the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance

23

with the terms of this Agreement and that the Borrower’s obligation to make payments pursuant to Section 2.16 shall not increase.

(c)                                  At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is at least equal to the Borrowing Minimum and an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple.  Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of fifteen (15) Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding.

(i)                                     the aggregate principal amount of the requested Borrowing;

SECTION 2.05.                                        [Intentionally Omitted]

SECTION 2.06.                                        Funding of Borrowing.  (a)  Each Lender shall make its Loan on the Closing Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 9:00 a.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent will make such Loan available to the Borrower by crediting the amounts so received, in like funds by 10:00 a.m., New York City time (or to the extent funds are in the Escrow Account, such earlier time (not earlier than 8:00 a.m., New York City time; provided that the Borrower has directed the Administrative Agent to remit funds from the Escrow Account by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the proposed date of Borrowing set forth in the Borrowing Request) as directed by the Borrower), to an account of the Borrower notified by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of either the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, request that each Lender make, and each Lender agrees to make, its Loans by wire transfer of immediately available funds in US Dollars into an escrow account in the name of the Administrative Agent, on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, notified by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders (such escrow account of the Administrative Agent, the “Escrow Account”), by 12:00 noon, New York City time one Business Day before the proposed date of Borrowing set forth in the Borrowing Request.  Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to release all amounts deposited by the Lenders into the Escrow Account (such amounts, the “Escrow Funds”) to the Borrower on the Closing Date upon the satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with Section 4.02) of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02; provided that, in the event the Closing Date does not occur within two Business Days of the proposed date of Borrowing set forth in the Closing Date Borrowing Request (the “Return Date”), the Escrow Funds shall be returned to the respective Lenders within one Business Day of the Return Date and applied in prepayment of the Loans.  The Borrower agrees that interest shall accrue on the Loans from and including the date of the Escrow Funds being deposited in the Escrow Account.

(b)                                 Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of the Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and 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 Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be the cost to it of funding such amount or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the subject Loan (subject to the return of such interest as provided in the next sentence).  If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the Borrowing and the Administrative Agent shall return to the Borrower any amount (including interest) paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this paragraph.

SECTION 2.07.                                        Interest Elections.  (a)  A Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an

25

initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request.  Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section and on terms consistent with the other provisions of this Agreement.  The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.

(b)                                 To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower, shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election.  Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.  Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section shall not be construed to permit the Borrower to elect an Interest Period for Eurodollar Loans that does not comply with Section 2.02(d).

(c)                                  Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i)                                     the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii)                                  the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii)                               the Type of the resulting Borrowing; and

(iv)                              if the resulting Borrowing is to be a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.  Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender holding a Loan to which such request relates of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(d)                                 If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing, then unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.08.                                        Termination and Reduction of Commitments.  (a)  Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall automatically terminate on the earlier to occur of (i) the Acquisition Termination Date, in the event that the Closing Date has not occurred on or before

26

such date and (ii) the termination of the Borrower’s (or its applicable Affiliate’s) obligations under the Acquisition Agreement to consummate the Acquisition in accordance with its terms.

(b)                                 The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Commitments; provided that each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum, or the entire amount of the Commitments.

(c)                                  The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably agree), specifying the effective date of such election and the Class of Commitments being reduced or terminated.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof.  Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or debt securities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

Any termination or reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be permanent.  Each reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be allocated among any Class of Commitments as directed by the Borrower and applied to the Commitments of each Lender within each Class in accordance with its Pro Rata Share.

SECTION 2.09.                                        Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a)                                 The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay the Loans as follows:

(i)                                     to the Administrative Agent for the account of the 5-Year Tranche Lenders, a principal amount of the 5-Year Tranche Loans on each Principal Payment Date set forth below equal to (A) the percentage set forth opposite such Principal Payment Date multiplied by (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the 5-Year Tranche Loans in effect at the end of business on the Closing Date, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.10(b):

27

(ii)                                  to the extent the Loans of any Class remain outstanding on the Maturity Date for such Class of Loans, the Borrower unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of the Lenders of such Class the outstanding principal amount of such Loans made on such Maturity Date.

(b)                                 Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from the Loans made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c)                                  The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts (including the Register described in Section 10.04) in which it shall record (i) the amount of the Loans made hereunder, the Type thereof, and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal, interest or other amount due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to any Lender hereunder and (iii) the amounts received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the accounts of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d)                                 The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall, to the extent consistent with the Register, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e)                                  Any Lender may request that Loans made by it to the Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note.  In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably.  Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by each such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein and its registered assigns.

SECTION 2.10.                                        Prepayment of Loans.  (a)  The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the Loans without premium or penalty (subject to Section 2.15) in whole or in part, subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(b)                                 Any prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of the Loans to be made pursuant to Section 2.09(a) in the manner notified by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent.

(c)                                  The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any voluntary prepayment of a Borrowing pursuant to clause (a) above, (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of such prepayment and (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of such prepayment.  Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of the Loans or portion thereof and the Class(es) of Loans to be prepaid; provided that a notice of voluntary prepayment of the Loans delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or debt securities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the

28

specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.  Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof.

(d)                                 Each partial prepayment of the Loans shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02.  Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be allocated among each Class of Loans as directed by the Borrower and shall be applied ratably to the Loans within such Class.  Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12 and for any prepayment of a Eurodollar Loan, with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.15.  In the event any prepayment shall be made hereunder but the Borrower shall not have selected the Borrowings to be prepaid, the Administrative Agent shall apply such prepayment (i) first, to ABR Borrowings and (ii) second, to Eurodollar Borrowings.

(b)                                 [Intentionally Omitted].

(c)                                  All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent, for distribution to the Lenders.  Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

(d)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section.

(e)                                  Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan under

29

Section 2.10(a) prior to the Maturity Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(f)                                   All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).  The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(a)                                 the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or

(b)                                 the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans as Eurodollar Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Borrowing Request that requests a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and the Borrower may instead request an ABR Borrowing not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing and (ii) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion or continuation of any Borrowing as a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and such Borrowing shall be converted to or continued on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as an ABR Borrowing.

SECTION 2.14.                                        Increased Costs.  (a)  If any Change in Law shall:

(i)                                     impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate); or

(ii)                                  impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition or Tax affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender, other than any Indemnified Taxes, Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to

30

such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b)                                 If any Lender determines that any Change in Law 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 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 or liquidity), other than any Indemnified Taxes, Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes, then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c)                                  A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations used by such Lender to determine such amount, shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay to such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 30 days after receipt thereof.

(d)                                 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 or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and delivers a certificate with respect thereto as provided in paragraph (c) above; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.15.                                        Break Funding Payments.  In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan to a Loan of a different Type or Interest Period other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.08(c) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the assignment or deemed assignment of any Eurodollar Loan or the right to receive payment other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18 then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense actually incurred and attributable to such event but excluding loss of anticipated profits.  A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section, and setting forth in reasonable detail the calculations used by such Lender to determine such amount or amounts, shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly inform the Borrower of the contents thereof) and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.16.                                        Taxes.  (a)  Subject to all the provisions of this Section 2.16 and except as required by law, any and all payments by or on account of the Borrower hereunder or

31

under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes; provided that if the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after all such required deductions are made (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b)                                 In addition, the Loan Parties shall pay any Other Taxes (not otherwise addressed in Section 2.16(a)) to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c)                                  The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (except to the extent such penalties, interest or costs are attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct by a Lender or the Administrative Agent), whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent, on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Such Lender or Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower written notice of any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes to be made hereunder with respect to which the Borrower has an indemnity obligation, but the failure of such Lender or Administrative Agent to give such notice shall not limit its right to receive indemnification hereunder, except that a failure to give such notice will constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of the first sentence of this clause (c) to the extent penalties, interest or costs are incurred solely as a result of the failure to give such notice.  Such Lender or Administrative Agent shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower in seeking a refund or return of such payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes.

(d)                                 As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e)                                  Any Lender that claims to be entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax under U.S. law or any treaty to which the United States is a party, or the law of any other jurisdiction with respect to which the Administrative Agent or Lender receives written reasonable request for documentation from the Borrower or the Administrative Agent with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.  Such documentation shall include, as applicable and without limitation, (x) properly completed and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN,

32

W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8IMY (including the appropriate attachments thereto) or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, in each case claiming complete exemption from United States withholding Tax along with any other documentation required by applicable law, (y) where claiming exemption under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, a statement signed under penalty of perjury that such Person is not (1) a “bank” as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10% shareholder” of the Borrower (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code) or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower or any Loan Party within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Code, together with a properly completed U.S. Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E and (z) a properly completed and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9.  In addition, if a payment made to the Administrative Agent or Lender under this Agreement or in respect of any Obligation of the Borrower would be subject to United States withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Person were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable) and such Person is claiming or seeking to claim an exemption from withholding under FATCA, such Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Person has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Such Lender or Administrative Agent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Borrower from any penalties, interest or other costs incurred by the Borrower solely as a result of the failure of such Lender or the Administrative Agent to comply properly with such documentation requirements.

(f)                                   The Administrative Agent or each Lender, on the date it becomes the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder (or designates a new lending office), will designate lending offices for the Loans to be made and held by it, and represents and warrants that, on such date (but without giving effect to any Change in Law after the Effective Date), it will not be liable and the Borrower will not be required to withhold or deduct for any withholding Tax that is imposed by the United States of America on payments by the Borrower except if such Lender (or assignor, if any) was, at the time of designation of a new lending office (or assignment), unable to comply with this Section 2.16(f) because of a change in applicable law (and would have been able to comply on the date that the applicable Lender or assignor became a Lender hereunder).  The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall provide documentation to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.16(e)) prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower to establish the foregoing.  If the Administrative Agent or a Lender is unable to comply with this Section 2.16(f) because of a change in applicable law described above, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with (i) adequate information as will permit the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the applicable rate of withholding Tax and (ii) any additional properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent which is necessary to make such withholding on a payment made hereunder.  The Administrative Agent or each Lender shall indemnify the Borrower for the full amount of Excluded Taxes paid or required to be paid by the Borrower on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any Loan Document as a result of the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s failure to comply with this Section 2.16(f).

33

(g)                                  If a Lender or the Administrative Agent (each a “Finance Party”) receives a refund or credit in respect of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.16 and, in the case of a credit, such credit reduces the Tax liability of the Finance Party and is in the good faith opinion of the relevant Finance Party both identifiable and quantifiable without requiring such Finance Party or its professional advisers to expend a material amount of time or incur a material cost in so identifying or quantifying, the Finance Party will pay over the amount of such refund or credit to the Borrower to the extent the Finance Party has received indemnity payments or additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in obtaining such refund or credit and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit); provided, however, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Finance Party, agrees to repay the amount it received to the Finance Party within 30 days of such request, plus penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority (except to the extent such penalties or other charges are incurred solely as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the relevant Finance Party), if the refund or credit is subsequently disallowed or cancelled.  Amounts payable to the Borrower under this clause (g) with respect to a refund received by a Finance Party will be paid to the Borrower within 30 days of receipt of such refund by the Finance Party.  Amounts payable under this clause (g) with respect to a credit realized by a Finance Party will be paid within 30 days of the determination by the Finance Party that the credit reduced the Tax liability of such Finance Party.

(h)                                 [Intentionally Omitted].

(i)                                     This Section 2.16 shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 2.17.                                        Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.  (a)  The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Sections 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time (unless a different time is specified under a particular provision hereof or thereof), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim.  Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon.  All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account specified in Schedule 2.17 or, in any such case, to such other account as the Administrative Agent shall from time to time specify reasonably in advance of the date of the required payment in a notice delivered to the Borrower; provided that such payments shall be subject to the principles of Section 2.16(f) (substituting “Administrative Agent” for “Lender” and “account” for “lending offices”).  The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any Lender or other Person promptly following receipt thereof to the appropriate lending office or other address specified by such Lender or other Person.  If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.  All payments hereunder of principal or interest in respect of any Loan and under each other Loan Document shall be made in US Dollars.  Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Administrative Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by such Administrative Agent to make such payment.

34

(b)                                 If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent from the Borrower to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due from the Borrower hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due from the Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due from the Borrower hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

(c)                                  If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on its Loans, resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of their respective Loans and accrued interest thereon; provided that (i) 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 (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary (as to which the provisions of this paragraph 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 rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d)                                 Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative 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 applicable Lenders the amount due.  In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the applicable Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent, at a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry practices on interbank compensation.

(e)                                  If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by it for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to the Administrative Agent until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

SECTION 2.18.                                        Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.  (a)  If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount or indemnify any Person pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04) its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable

35

judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the 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 costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such assignment.

(b)                                 If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) any Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount or indemnify any Person pursuant to Section 2.16, (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to any amendment or waiver of any Loan Document that requires the consent of all Lenders (or of each affected Lender, where such Lender is an affected Lender) and such amendment or waiver is consented to by the Required Lenders, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, but with the cooperation of the Administrative Agent, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender (a “Replaced Lender”) to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent if such consent would be required under Section 10.04(b), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) 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, 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) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments.  A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and 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.  In connection with any such replacement, if any such Replaced Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Assumption reflecting such replacement within one (1) Business Day of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption to such Replaced Lender, then such Replaced Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption without any action on the part of the Replaced Lender.

SECTION 2.19.                                        [Intentionally Omitted].

SECTION 2.20.                                        [Intentionally Omitted].

SECTION 2.21.                                        Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a)                                 Ticking Fees shall cease to accrue from and after the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender on the undrawn portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a);

(b)                                 [Intentionally Omitted];

(c)                                  the outstanding Commitment and Loans, if any, of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may

36

take any action under this Agreement (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification pursuant to Section 10.02), provided that any amendment, waiver or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders or that would (i) change the percentage of Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans, or the number of Lenders, that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder, (ii) amend this Section 2.21 or Section 10.02 in a manner which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other Lenders and is adverse to such Defaulting Lender, (iii) increase or extend the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender or subject such Defaulting Lender to any additional obligations (it being understood that any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default shall not constitute an increase or extension of the Commitment of any Lender or an additional obligation of any Lender), (iv) reduce the principal of the Loans made by such Defaulting Lender or (v) postpone the scheduled date for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans made by such Defaulting Lender, shall in each case require the consent of such Defaulting Lender (which consent shall be deemed to have been given if such Defaulting Lender fails to respond to a written request for such consent within 30 days after receipt of such written request);

(d)                                 in the event that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower each agree (acting reasonably) that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then on such date such Defaulting Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Defaulting Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its share of the outstanding Commitments at the time;

(e)                                  the operation of any provision of this Section 2.21, will not (i) constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender, or (except with respect to clause (f) above) cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender, or (ii) except as expressly provided in this Section 2.21, excuse or otherwise modify the performance by the Borrower of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and

(f)                                   anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may (i) require such Lender to assign and delegate all its interests, rights and obligations under the Loan Documents in accordance with Section 2.18(b) or (ii) terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender on a non-pro rata basis upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

ARTICLE III

ARTICLE VIII
[Intentionally Omitted]

ARTICLE IX
The Administrative Agent

In order to expedite the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, Citibank N.A. is hereby appointed to act as Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders.  Each of the Lenders and each assignee of any Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on behalf of such Lender or assignee and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  The Administrative Agent is hereby expressly

53

authorized by the Lenders, without hereby limiting any implied authority, (a) to receive on behalf of the Lenders all payments of principal of and interest on the Loans and all other amounts due to the Lenders hereunder, and promptly to distribute to each Lender its proper share of each payment so received; (b) to give notice on behalf of each of the Lenders to the Borrower of any Event of Default specified in this Agreement of which the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge acquired in connection with its agency hereunder; and (c) to distribute to each Lender copies of all notices, financial statements and other materials delivered by the Borrower or any other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents as received by the Administrative Agent.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent is hereby expressly authorized to release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement in the event that all the capital stock of such Guarantor shall be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of to a Person other than the Borrower or an Affiliate of the Borrower in a transaction not prohibited by this Agreement or as required by Section 5.09(c).  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 Administrative 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.

With respect to the Loans made by it under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity and not as Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent 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 it were not an Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and its duties under the Loan Documents shall be administrative in nature.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise upon receipt of notice in writing by the Required 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 Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative 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 (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the institution serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.  The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.  The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to

54

have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, and the Administrative 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 any 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 any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative 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 believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.  The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and in good faith believed by it to be 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 Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan.  The Administrative 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.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent.  The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties.  The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

In taking any discretionary action hereunder, or in determining whether any provision hereof is applicable to any event, transaction or circumstance, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, but shall not be required (unless required by any other express provision hereof) to, communicate such proposed action or determination to the Lenders prior to taking or making the same, and shall be entitled (subject to any otherwise applicable requirement of Section 10.02(b)), in the absence of any contrary communication received from any Lender within a reasonable period of time specified in such communication from the Administrative Agent, to assume that such proposed action or determination is satisfactory to such Lender.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent (the “Successor Agent”) as provided in this paragraph, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may dismiss the Administrative Agent (the “Existing Dismissed Agent”) (x) with the Administrative Agent’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) or (y) if such Administrative Agent constitutes a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (e) of the definition thereof, by notifying the Lenders.  After such notice of dismissal is sent by the Borrower, the Borrower shall have the right to appoint the

55

Successor Agent.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by the Successor Agent, such Successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Existing Dismissed Agent, and the Existing Dismissed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  The fees payable by the Borrower to the Successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to the Existing Dismissed Agent unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and the Successor Agent.  After the Existing Dismissed Agent’s dismissal hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of the Existing Dismissed 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 it was acting as Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign (the “Resigning Agent”) at any time by providing 30 (thirty) days written notice to the Lenders and the Borrower.  Upon any such resignation, the Borrower shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent (the “Replacement Agent) (x) in its sole discretion, if such Replacement Agent is a lender  under the Existing Credit Agreement or (y) with the consent of the Required Lenders (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), if such Replacement Lender is not a lender under the Existing Credit Agreement; provided, that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Required Lenders, and not the Borrower, shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint the Replacement Agent.  If no Replacement Agent shall have been so appointed by the Borrower (or, if applicable, the Required Lenders) and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the Resigning Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the Resigning Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint the Replacement Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank.  Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by the Replacement Agent, the Replacement Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Resigning Agent, and the Resigning  Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  If within 30 days after the Resigning Agent gives notice of its resignation, neither the Borrower (nor, if applicable, the Required Lenders) nor the Administrative Agent have appointed a Replacement Agent, the Required Lenders shall be deemed to have succeeded to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Resigning Agent and the Resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder.  The fees payable by the Borrower to the Replacement Agent shall be the same as those payable to the Resigning Agent unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and the Replacement Agent.  After the Resigning Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of the Resigning 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 it was acting as Administrative Agent.

To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax.  Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 2.16, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 10 days after written demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against such Administrative Agent by the United States Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding

56

Tax ineffective).  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Article. The agreements in this Article shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender 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 related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Arrangers shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as an Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative 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 Administrative 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 Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent) 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 Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to give the Administrative Agent the right to vote the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding pursuant to such Debtor Relief Law.

58

following proviso, which shall only require the consent of the Lenders expressly set forth therein and not Required Lenders); provided that, no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood and agreed that the waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute an increase in the Commitment of such Lender), (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan, or reduce the Applicable Rate, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender owed such amount, (iii) postpone the date of any scheduled payment of the principal amount of any Loan (including the maturity date), or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such scheduled payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of such Lender owed such amount or which holds such Commitment, (iv) change Section 2.17(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, or amend the pro rata treatment of each reduction of the Commitments under Section 2.08, without the written consent of each Lender, (v) change any of the provisions of this Section or reduce the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender or (vi) release all or substantially all the Subsidiary Guarantors from its or their obligations under the Subsidiary Guarantee Agreement (except as otherwise provided therein), without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.  At the Borrower’s option, any amendment, waiver or modification may apply to only one Class, in which case only the Required Lenders of such Class shall be needed to approve any such amendment, waiver or consent.

(c)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.02, if at any time after the Effective Date, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an ambiguity, obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or administrative nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five Business Days following receipt of notice thereof.

SECTION 10.03.                                 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.  (a)  Whether or not the Closing Date occurs, the Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and their Affiliates (other than, prior to the Closing Date, the Excluded Parties) for which receipt of a written request therefor (together with detailed supporting documentation (including line item breakdown) supporting such request is provided) (limited (x) in the case of legal fees, to the reasonable fees, charges and out-of-pocket disbursements of ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ LLP and one counsel per jurisdiction and (y) in the case of any other advisors and consultants, to advisors and consultants approved by the Borrower), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof; provided, that all such expenses incurred prior to the Closing Date shall be paid by the Borrower on the Closing Date if a written request therefor (together with detailed supporting documentation (including line item breakdown) supporting such reimbursement request) is provided within three (3) business days prior to the Closing Date, and (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for which receipt of a written request therefor (together with

59

detailed supporting documentation (including line item breakdown) supporting such request is provided) (limited (I) in the case of legal fees to the reasonable fees, charges and out-of-pocket disbursements of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, taken as a whole, (and one counsel for each appropriate jurisdiction and, solely in the case of actual or potential conflict of interest where the Administrative Agent or such Lender affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict, one additional counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) and (II) in the case of any other advisors and consultants, to advisors and consultants approved by the Borrower) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with any Loan Document, including its rights under this Section, or 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; provided, that in each case, the Borrower shall have no obligation to reimburse for expenses (including legal fees and expenses) which have been incurred more than 60 days from the date of receipt by the Borrower of such invoice.

(b)                                 The Borrower shall indemnify each Arranger, the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (but excluding, with respect to any Excluded Parties, losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses relating to actions or omissions prior to the Closing Date) (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, hold each Indemnitee harmless from and each Indemnitee shall have no liability for, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses and shall reimburse each Indemnitee within 30 days after receipt of a written request therefor (together with detailed supporting documentation (including line item breakdown) supporting such request and limited (x) in the case of legal fees, to the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one outside counsel for all Indemnitees (and one local counsel for each appropriate jurisdiction and solely in the case of actual or potential conflict of interest where any Indemnitee affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, one additional counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) and (y) in the case of any other third party advisors and consultants, to advisors and consultants approved by the Borrower), other than Taxes, which, in all cases, are subject to indemnity only pursuant to Section 2.16, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the Transactions or any related transactions, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of the 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 and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is instituted by a third party or by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or any Loan Party); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are (x) found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from (I) a material breach by such Indemnitee of its obligations hereunder or under any Loan Document or (II) the willful misconduct, bad faith or the gross negligence of such Indemnitee or such Indemnitee’s Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, advisors or agents, (y) with respect to disputes solely among Indemnitees (other than, solely to the extent such indemnification would not be denied pursuant to clause (x) above, claims in connection with any such Indemnitee acting in its capacity as Arranger, Administrative Agent or any other agent, arranger, bookrunner or other similar role) that are not arising out of an act or omission by the Borrower or its Affiliates or (z) settlements without the Borrower’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably

60

withheld or delayed), but, if settled with the Borrower’s consent or if there is a final judgment in any such proceeding, then the Borrower will indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee in the manner set forth above); provided, further, in each case, the Borrower shall have no obligation to reimburse for expenses (including legal fees and expenses) which have been incurred more than 60 days from the date of receipt by the Borrower of such invoice.  The Borrower will not, without the prior written consent of the applicable Indemnitee (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), settle, compromise, consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not such Indemnitee is a party thereto) unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee from all liability arising out of such proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of fault or culpability by or on behalf of such Indemnitee.

(c)                                  To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.

(d)                                 To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert (and, by their acceptance of the terms hereunder, any Indemnitee shall not assert), and each hereby waives, any claim against 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 or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof (it being agreed, however, that the Borrower’s indemnification obligations will apply in respect of any special, indirect, exemplary, incidental, consequential or punitive damages that may be awarded against any Indemnitee in connection with a claim by a third party).  No Indemnitee referred to in clause (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, the other Loan Documents or the Transactions.

(e)                                  All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor (subject to any express time periods provided for payment set forth herein).

SECTION 10.04.                                 Successors and Assigns.  (a)  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender thereto (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section.  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 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

61

(b)                                 Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees (other than to any Disqualified Institution) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that, subject to the following proviso, (i) the Administrative Agent and, except in the case of an assignment (A) to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or (B) at a time when an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent in each case shall not be unreasonably withheld), (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or a Lender Affiliate or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment, the amount of the Commitment 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 Administrative Agent) shall not be less than US$10,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, (iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, which shall contain, without limitation, a representation and warranty from the assignee that such assignee is not a Disqualified Institution, together with a processing and recordation fee of US$3,500 (it being understood that such fee is not payable by the Borrower), (iv) 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 Administrative 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 Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), (v) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and the documentation required to be delivered under Sections 2.16(e) and (f) and (vi) no assignee shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the assigned interest unless the entitlement to receive any additional amounts under Section 2.16 arises as a result of a change in applicable law after the date such assignee becomes a party to this Agreement; provided, however that, notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the funding of the Loans on the Closing Date, (x) no Lender shall be permitted to assign its rights and obligations hereunder except with the consent of the Borrower in its sole and absolute discretion and (y) notwithstanding clause (x), Citibank, N.A. shall be permitted to assign its rights and obligations as a Lender hereunder to Citicorp USA, Inc. or Citicorp North America, Inc.  Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03).  Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section.

62

(c)                                  The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in The City of New York 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 Commitment of, and principal amount of and interest on 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, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  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.  Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Loans and Commitments are intended to be treated as registered obligations for tax purposes and the right, title and interest of the Lenders in and to such Loans and Commitments shall be transferable only in accordance with the terms hereof.  This Section 10.04(c) shall be construed so that the Loans and Commitments are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

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

(e)                                  Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than to any Disqualified Institution so long as the list of Disqualified Institutions pursuant to clause (b) of the definition thereof is available to Lenders upon request) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and 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 Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  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 described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant.  Subject to paragraph (f) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender entitled to such benefits and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section, but only to the extent that such Participant agrees to comply with and be subject to Section 2.16 as if it were a Lender.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(c) as though it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”).  No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or

63

any portion of the Participant Register to the Borrower or any other Person (including the existence or identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement) except (i) to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loans or other obligations are in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the applicable United States Treasury Regulations or (ii) with respect to any Person whose interest in the Obligations is treated as a participation by reason of the penultimate sentence of Section 10.04(b).  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(f)                                   A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent.  A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with and be subject to Section 2.16 as though it were a Lender.

(g)                                  Any Lender may at any time pledge or grant a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or grant of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Bank”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”) of such Granting Bank, identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Bank to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Bank would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.01; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment to make any Loan by any SPC and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Bank shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof.  The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall be deemed to utilize the Commitment of the Granting Bank to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by the Granting Bank and such Granting Bank shall for all purposes remain the Lender of record hereunder.  Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any payment under this Agreement for which a Lender would otherwise be liable, for so long as, and to the extent, the related Granting Bank makes such payment.  No SPC (or any Person receiving a payment through such SPC) shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 (or any other increased costs protection provision) than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the interests transferred to such SPC; provided that each SPC (or any Person receiving a payment through such SPC) shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 only to the extent such Person agrees to comply with and be subject to Section 2.16 as if it were a Lender.  In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof.  In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.04 other than Section 10.04(d), any SPC may (i) with notice

64

to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to its Granting Bank or to any financial institutions (if consented to by the Borrower and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to fund the Loans made by such SPC or to support the securities (if any) issued by such SPC to fund such Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans (but not relating to the Borrower, except with the Borrower’s consent) to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(i)                                     In connection with a proposed assignment pursuant to this Section 10.04, the assigning Lender may request, and the Administrative Agent is authorized to provide, the list of Disqualified Institutions that the Borrower has provided pursuant to clause (b) of the definition thereof.  The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation or duty to monitor or track whether any Disqualified Institution shall have become an assignee, Lender or participant hereunder.

SECTION 10.05.                                 Survival.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties herein or in any other Loan Document and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and any other Loan Document and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.  The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.03 and Article IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.

SECTION 10.06.                                 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.  To the extent provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy (or other electronic transmission (including by .pdf)) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.07.                                 Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and

65

enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.08.                                 Right of Setoff.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, but excluding escrow, payroll, ▇▇▇▇▇ cash, trust, tax and fiduciary accounts) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured.  The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 10.09.                                 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.  (a)  This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York; provided, however, that the laws of the State of Delaware shall govern in determining (a) the accuracy of any Specified Acquisition Agreement Representation and whether as a result of any inaccuracy thereof the Borrower (or a subsidiary) has the right to terminate its obligations to consummate the Acquisition under the Acquisition Agreement as a result of a breach of such representations in the Acquisition Agreement and (b) whether the Acquisition has been consummated in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement (in each case, without regard to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof to the extent that such principles would direct a matter to another jurisdiction).

(b)                                 Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court 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, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court.  Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action 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 any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Administrative 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 its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c)                                  Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section.  Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d)                                 Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01.  Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

66

SECTION 10.13.                                 Interest Rate Limitation.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 10.14.                                 Conversion of Currencies.  (a)  If, for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum owing hereunder in one currency into another currency, each party hereto agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction the first currency could be purchased with such other currency on the Business Day immediately preceding the day on which final judgment is given.

(b)                                 The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to any party hereto or any holder of the obligations owing hereunder (the “Applicable Creditor”) shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which such sum is stated to be due hereunder (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following receipt by the Applicable Creditor of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Applicable Creditor may in accordance with normal banking procedures in the relevant jurisdiction purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency; if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Applicable Creditor against such loss, and if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased exceeds the sum originally due to the Applicable Creditor in the Agreement Currency, the Applicable Creditor shall refund the amount of such excess to the Borrower.  The obligations of the parties contained in this Section 10.14 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of all other amounts owing hereunder.

(c)                                  For purposes of determining compliance with any provision hereunder with respect to any transaction consummated in a currency other than Dollars, no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of changes in rates of currency exchange occurring after the time such transaction is consummated (so long as such transaction, at the time consummated, was permitted hereunder); provided, that if any Priority Indebtedness or Lien is incurred to refinance, replace or extend other Priority Indebtedness or Lien denominated in a currency other than Dollars, and such refinancing, replacement or extension would cause the applicable Dollar denominated restriction to be exceed if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, replacement or extension, such Dollar denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of the Indebtedness or Lien subject to such refinancing, replacement or extension does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness or Lien immediately prior to such refinancing, replacement or extension.

68

SECTION 10.15.                                 USA Patriot Act.  Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and each Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with the USA Patriot Act.

FORM OF SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE

This Solvency Certificate (the “Certificate”) of Molson Coors Brewing Company (the “Company”) is delivered pursuant to Section 4.02(b)(A)(iii) of the Term Loan Agreement dated as of [·], 2015 (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent.  Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Certificate shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

I, the undersigned, solely in my capacity as the duly elected qualified, and acting [Chief Financial Officer][Treasurer] of the Company, and not individually (and without personal liability) DO HEREBY CERTIFY to the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, as of the date hereof, as follows:

1.              I have carefully reviewed the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents referred to therein (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) and such other documents as I have deemed relevant and the contents of this Certificate and, in connection herewith, have made such investigation as I have deemed necessary therefore.

2.              As of the date hereof and immediately after giving effect to the Transactions, on and as of such date:

a.              the fair value of the property (on a going concern basis) of the Company and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is greater than the total amount of liabilities, including, without limitation, contingent liabilities, of the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis;

b.              the present fair salable value of the assets (on a going concern basis) of the Company and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is not less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of the Company and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, on their debts as they become absolute and matured in the ordinary course of business;

c.               the Company and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, do not intend to, nor do they believe that they will, incur debts or liabilities that would be beyond their ability to pay as such debts and liabilities mature in the ordinary course of business; and

d.              the Company and its subsidiaries are not engaged in business or a transaction, and are not about to engage in business or a transaction for which the Company and its subsidiaries’ property would constitute an unreasonably small capital.

For the purposes of this Certificate, the amount of contingent liabilities at any time have been computed as the amount that, in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.

[Signature page follows.]

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has hereunto executed this certificate on the date first written above.

FORM OF SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE AGREEMENT

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE AGREEMENT dated as of         , 201[·] among MOLSON COORS BREWING COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), each subsidiary of the Borrower listed on Schedule I hereto in favor of Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Administrative Agent”), on behalf of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement referred to below.

Reference is made to the Term Loan Agreement dated as of December 16, 2015 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Borrower, the Lenders from time to time party thereto and the Administrative Agent.  The Lenders have agreed to extend credit to the Borrower subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement.  The obligations of the Lenders to extend such credit are conditioned upon, among other things, the execution and delivery of this Agreement.  Each of the Guarantors (as defined below) is a Subsidiary of the Borrower, will derive substantial benefits from the extension of credit to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement and is willing to execute and deliver this Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to extend such credit.  Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1.         Definitions.

(a)           Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings specified in the Credit Agreement.

(b)           The rules of construction specified in Section 1.03 of the Credit Agreement also apply to this Agreement.

(c)           As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings specified below:

“Guarantors” means each Subsidiary that becomes a party to this Agreement as a Guarantor after the Effective Date until released.

SECTION 2.         Guarantee.

(a)           Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the payment when and as due of all the Obligations;

(b)           Each of the Guarantors further agrees that the due and punctual payment of the Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation.  Without prejudice to the Borrower’s rights to receive demands for payment in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and to the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the Guarantors waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment.

SECTION 3.         Guarantee of Payment.  Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual or collection of any of the Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the

Administrative Agent or Lender to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or Lender in favor of the Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 4.         No Limitations, Etc.

(a)           Except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 20, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the Obligations or otherwise.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent or Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against any Loan Party under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any of the Obligations; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement; (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations; or (v) any other act, omission or delay to do any other act that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of all the Obligations guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor) or which would impair or limit the right of any Guarantor to subrogation.

(b)           To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of the Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, other than the payment in full in cash of all the Obligations guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders may, at their election, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with the Borrower or any other Loan Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Obligations guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor have been fully paid in full in cash.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, as the case may be.

SECTION 5.         Reinstatement.  Each of the Guarantors agrees that its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or otherwise.

SECTION 6.         Agreement to Pay; Indemnity: Subrogation: Contribution.  In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower or any other Loan Party to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor that guarantees such Obligation hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Administrative Agent or Lender, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent or Lender in cash the amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of such Obligations then due, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

Each Guarantor further agrees that if payment in respect of any Obligation guaranteed hereunder by such Guarantor shall be due in a currency other than US Dollars and/or at a place of payment other than New York and if, by reason of any Change in Law, disruption of currency or foreign exchange markets, war or civil disturbance or other event, payment of such Obligation in such currency or at such place of payment shall be impossible or, in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent or Lender, not consistent with the protection of its rights or interests, then, at the election of the Administrative Agent, such Guarantor shall make payment of such Obligation in US Dollars (based upon the applicable Exchange Rate in effect on the date of payment) and/or in New York, and shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and Lender against any losses or reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that it shall sustain as a result of such alternative payment.  Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums as provided in this Section 6, all rights of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of all the Obligations owed by the Borrower or Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and Lenders.

Subject to the subordination provisions contained in the preceding paragraph of this Section 6, (i) the Borrower agrees to indemnify any Guarantor making any payment as required under this Section 6 for the full amount of such payment and, until such indemnification obligation shall have been satisfied, such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment, and (ii) each Guarantor (a “Contributing Guarantor”) agrees that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor under this Agreement, and such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Guarantor”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrower as provided for in clause (i), the Contributing Guarantor shall, to the extent the Claiming Guarantor shall not have been so indemnified by the Borrower, indemnify the Claiming Guarantor in an amount equal to the amount of such payment, multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing Guarantor on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 21, the date of the Supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor) and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 21, the date of the Supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor).  Any Contributing Guarantor making any payment to a Claiming Guarantor pursuant to this Section 6 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Guarantor under clause (i) to the extent of such payment.

SECTION 7.         Information.  Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s and each other Loan Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.

SECTION 8.         Notices.  All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.  All communications and notices hereunder to any Guarantor shall be given to it in care of the Borrower as provided in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 9.         Survival of Agreement.  All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Guarantors herein and in any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended under

the Credit Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under any Loan Document is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.

SECTION 10.       Binding Effect; Several Agreement.  This Agreement shall become effective as to any Guarantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Guarantor shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Guarantor and its respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Guarantor, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Guarantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement.  This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Guarantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Guarantor without the approval of any other Guarantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Guarantor hereunder.

SECTION 11.       Successors and Assigns.  Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Guarantor or the Administrative Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective permitted successors and assigns.

SECTION 12.       Administrative Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification.

(a)           The parties hereto agree that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its expense incurred hereunder as provided in Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement.
