The Borrower may make a single borrowing on a single date under the Lenders’ collective Delayed Draw Term Commitments during the Delayed Draw Term Commitment Period (the date of such borrowing, the “Delayed Draw Funding Date”). Each Lender’s Delayed Draw Term Commitment shall (i) reduce to zero immediately after the borrowing of Delayed Draw Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.1 and (ii) terminate immediately and without further action on the Delayed Draw Termination Date.

(c) During the Revolving Credit Commitment Period the Borrower may use the Revolving Credit Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The Revolving Credit Loans may from time to time be Eurocurrency Loans or, with respect to Revolving Credit Loans denominated in Dollars, Base Rate Loans, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.5 and 2.13; provided that no Revolving Credit Loan shall be made as a Eurocurrency Loan (other than a Loan based on the Eurocurrency Overnight Rate) after the day that is one month prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

(d) The Borrower shall repay all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

2.5 Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing. The Borrower may borrow under the Revolving Credit Commitments during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period on any Business Day, provided that the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice in a Notice of Borrowing (which Notice of Borrowing must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, (a) three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, or (b) one Business Day prior

to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Base Rate Loans), specifying (i) the amount, currency and Type of Revolving Credit Loans to be borrowed, (ii) the requested Borrowing Date and (iii) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans, the length of the initial Interest Period therefor. Each borrowing under the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an amount equal to (x) in the case of Base Rate Loans, $1,000,000 or a $250,000 multiple in excess thereof (or, if the then aggregate Available Revolving Credit Commitments are less than $1,000,000, such lesser amount), (y) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars, $1,000,000 or a $500,000 multiple in excess thereof and (z) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Euros, €1,000,000 or a €500,000 multiple in excess thereof; provided that the Swing Line Lender may request, on behalf of the Borrower, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Commitments which are Base Rate Loans in other amounts pursuant to Section 2.7. Upon receipt of any such Notice of Borrowing from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender thereof. Each Revolving Credit Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing according to its Revolving Credit Dollar Commitment or Revolving Credit Euro Commitment, as applicable, available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower at the Funding Office prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent. Such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

2.6 Swing Line Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make a portion of the credit otherwise available to the Borrower under the Revolving Credit Dollar Commitments from time to time during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period by making swing line loans (“Swing Line Loans”) to the Borrower; provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Swing Line Commitment then in effect (notwithstanding that the Swing Line Loans outstanding at any time, when aggregated with the Swing Line Lender’s other outstanding Revolving Credit Loans hereunder, may exceed the Swing Line Commitment then in effect) and (ii) the Borrower shall not request, and the Swing Line Lender shall not make, any Swing Line Loan if, after giving effect to the making of such Swing Line Loan, the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Credit Commitments would be less than zero. During the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, the Borrower may use the Swing Line Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. Swing Line Loans shall be (i) denominated in Dollars and (ii) Base Rate Loans only.

(b) The Borrower shall repay all outstanding Swing Line Loans on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

2.7 Procedure for Swing Line Borrowing; Refunding of Swing Line Loans. (a) Whenever the Borrower desires that the Swing Line Lender make Swing Line Loans it shall give the Swing Line Lender irrevocable telephonic notice confirmed promptly in writing (which telephonic notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the proposed Borrowing Date), specifying (i) the amount to be borrowed and (ii) the requested Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period). Each borrowing under the Swing Line Commitment

shall be in an amount equal to $250,000 or a $100,000 multiple of in excess thereof. Not later than 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Borrowing Date specified in a notice in respect of Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office an amount in immediately available funds equal to the amount of the Swing Line Loan to be made by the Swing Line Lender. The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower on such Borrowing Date in immediately available funds.

(b) The Swing Line Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion may, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swing Line Lender to act on its behalf), on one Business Day’s notice given by the Swing Line Lender no later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time to the Revolving Credit Lenders with a Revolving Credit Dollar Commitment and the Borrower, request each Revolving Credit Lender to make, and each Revolving Credit Lender hereby agrees to make, a Revolving Credit Loan, in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Dollar Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swing Line Loans (the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”) outstanding on the date of such notice, to repay the Swing Line Lender. Each Revolving Credit Lender with a Revolving Credit Dollar Commitment shall make the amount of such Revolving Credit Loan available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office in immediately available funds, not later than 10:00 A.M., New York City time, one Business Day after the date of such notice. The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans shall be immediately made available by the Administrative Agent to the Swing Line Lender for application by the Swing Line Lender to the repayment of the Refunded Swing Line Loans. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to charge the Borrower’s accounts with the Administrative Agent (up to the amount available in each such account) in order to immediately pay the amount of such Refunded Swing Line Loans to the extent amounts received from the Revolving Credit Lenders with a Revolving Credit Dollar Commitment are not sufficient to repay in full such Refunded Swing Line Loans and the Administrative Agent agrees to promptly notify the Borrower after any such charge, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such charge and payment.

(c) If prior to the time a Revolving Credit Loan would have otherwise been made pursuant to Section 2.7(b), one of the events described in Section 8.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower or if for any other reason, as determined by the Swing Line Lender in its sole discretion, Revolving Credit Loans may not be made as contemplated by Section 2.7(b), each Revolving Credit Lender with a Revolving Credit Dollar Commitment shall, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan was to have been made pursuant to the notice referred to in Section 2.7(b) (the “Refunding Date”), purchase for cash an undivided participating interest in the then outstanding Swing Line Loans by paying to the Swing Line Lender an amount (the “Swing Line Participation Amount”) equal to (i) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Dollar Percentage times (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding which were to have been repaid with such Revolving Credit Loans.

(d) Whenever, at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender with a Revolving Credit Dollar Commitment such Lender’s Swing Line

Participation Amount, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of the Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its Swing Line Participation Amount (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Revolving Credit Lender’s pro rata portion of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Swing Line Loans then due); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swing Line Lender.

(e) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s with a Revolving Credit Dollar Commitment obligation to make the Loans referred to in Section 2.7(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 2.7(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender or the Borrower may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Revolving Credit Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(f) If the Multicurrency Issuing Lender notifies the Borrower of a draft presented under any Multicurrency Letter of Credit (and paid by the Multicurrency Issuing Lender) after 1:00 PM on any given day, the Swing Line Lender will use commercially reasonable efforts to fund a Swing Line Loan on such day.

2.8 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Indebtedness. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the appropriate Revolving Credit Lender or Term Loan Lender, as the case may be, (i) the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan of such Revolving Credit Lender on the Revolving Credit Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 8), (ii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Swing Line Loan of such Swing Line Lender on the Revolving Credit Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 8) and (iii) the principal amount of each Term Loan of such Term Loan Lender in installments according to the amortization schedule set forth in Section 2.3 (or on such earlier date on which the Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 8). The Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans from time to time outstanding from the date hereof until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 2.15.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each

Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(c) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.6(d), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and any Note evidencing such Loan, the Type thereof and each Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 2.8(b) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower evidencing any Term Loans, Revolving Credit Loans or Swing Line Loans, as the case may be, of such Lender, substantially in the forms of Exhibit F-1, F-2 or F-3, respectively, with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount (such notes, respectively, “Term Notes”, “Revolving Credit Notes” and “Swing Line Notes”).

2.9 Commitment Fees, etc. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender) a commitment fee for the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the last day of the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, computed at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender during the period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date, commencing on the first of such dates to occur after the date hereof.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates from time to time agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent including, without limitation, pursuant to the Fee Letter.

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender holding a Delayed Draw Term Commitment a commitment fee for the period from and including the Closing Date to the Delayed Draw Termination Date, computed at the Delayed Draw Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the undrawn portion of the Delayed Draw Term Commitment of such Lender during the period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December and on the Delayed Draw Termination Date.

2.10 Termination or Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Credit Dollar Commitments or the Revolving Credit Euro Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Credit Dollar Commitments or the Revolving Credit Euro Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction of Revolving Credit Dollar Commitments or the Revolving Credit Euro Commitments shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000, or a $250,000 multiple in excess thereof, or €1,000,000, or a €250,000 multiple in excess thereof, as applicable, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Credit Dollar Commitments or the Revolving Credit Euro Commitments then in effect.

(b) The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in full (but not in part) the Delayed Draw Term Commitments.

2.11 Optional Prepayments. (a) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent at least two (2) Business Days prior thereto in the case of Eurocurrency Loans and at least one Business Day prior thereto in the case of Base Rate Loans, which notice shall (i) designate whether the Borrower is prepaying Swing Line Loans, Revolving Credit Loans and/or Term Loans and (ii) specify the date, currency and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of Eurocurrency Loans or Base Rate Loans; provided, that if a Eurocurrency Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.21. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Loans (unless all Revolving Credit Loans are being repaid and the Revolving Credit Commitments terminated) that are Base Rate Loans and Swing Line Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Partial prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a $250,000 multiple in excess thereof or €1,000,000 or a €250,000 multiple in excess thereof, as applicable. Partial prepayments of Swing Line Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple thereof.

(b) In the event of any prepayment of Term Loans within one year of the Closing Date made with the Net Cash Proceeds of any Indebtedness (including, without limitation, Replacement Term Loans) having a lower yield than the Term Loans being prepaid, the Borrower shall pay to the applicable Lenders with respect to such Term Loans a prepayment premium equal to 1.00% of the principal amount so prepaid.

2.12 Mandatory Prepayments. (a) Unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree and subject to Section 2.11(b), if after the Closing Date any Funded Debt shall be incurred, by any Loan Party (excluding any Funded Debt incurred in accordance with Section 7.2), an

amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied on the date of such issuance or incurrence toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.12(c).

(b) Unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree, if, on any date, any Loan Party shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such proceeds, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied not later than the fifth Business Day following the receipt of such proceeds toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.12(c); provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Asset Sales and Recovery Events that may be excluded from the foregoing requirement pursuant to a Reinvestment Notice shall not exceed $50,000,000 in any fiscal year of the Borrower and (ii) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.12(c).

(c) Unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree and subject to Section 2.18, amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be applied, first, to the prepayment of the Term Loans and second, to the Borrower or such other Person as shall be lawfully entitled thereto. The application of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11 or this Section 2.12 shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans and, second, to Eurocurrency Loans, in each case in a manner which, in the Administrative Agent’s reasonable judgment (which shall be conclusive) minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.21. Each prepayment of the Loans under Section 2.11 and this Section 2.12 (except in the case of Revolving Credit Loans (unless the Revolving Credit Loans are being repaid in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments terminated) that are Base Rate Loans and Swing Line Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment to the applicable Lender on the amount prepaid.

2.13 Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars to Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election, provided that any such conversion of Eurocurrency Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars by giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no Base Rate Loan under a particular Facility (i) may be converted into a Eurocurrency Loan with an Interest Period in excess of one month when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversions or (ii) may be converted into a Eurocurrency Loan after the date that is one month prior to the final scheduled termination or maturity date of such Facility. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

(b) Any Eurocurrency Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans, provided that no Eurocurrency Loan denominated in Dollars under a particular Facility (i) may be continued as such with an Interest Period in excess of one month when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation or (ii) may be continued as such after the date that is one month prior to the final scheduled termination or maturity date of such Facility, and provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

2.14 Minimum Amounts and Maximum Number of Eurocurrency Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions, continuations and optional prepayments of Eurocurrency Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurocurrency Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a $500,000 multiple in excess thereof or €1,000,000 or a €500,000 multiple in excess thereof and (b) no more than fifteen (15) Eurocurrency Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

2.15 Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each Eurocurrency Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day, except that Eurocurrency Loans bearing interest at the Eurocurrency Overnight Rate shall bear interest for each day such Loan is outstanding at such rate, at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Overnight Rate as in effect for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day.

(b) Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) (i) If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is equal to (x) in the case of the Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2.0% or (y) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility plus 2.0%, and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any commitment fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans under the

relevant Facility plus 2.0% (or, in the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility plus 2.0%), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until but excluding the date such overdue amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment).

(d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on demand.

2.16 Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest, fees and commissions payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to Base Rate Loans the rate of interest on which is calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurocurrency Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.15(a).

2.17 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

(a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period, or

(b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility that the Eurocurrency Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given with respect to any Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars (x) such Eurocurrency Loans under the relevant Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans, (y) such Eurocurrency Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted

on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurocurrency Loans shall be continued as Base Rate Loans and (z) any such outstanding Eurocurrency Loans under the relevant Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, to Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars under the relevant Facility shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurocurrency Loans. If such notice is given with respect to any Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Euros, then, during the 30 days following the giving of such notice, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower will negotiate in good faith in order to agree on a mutually acceptable substitute basis for calculating the interest payable on the affected Eurocurrency Loans and, (i) if a substitute basis is agreed within that period between the Administrative Agent (with the consent of all the Lenders holding such Eurocurrency Loans) and the Borrower, then it shall apply in accordance with its terms (and may be retrospective to the beginning of the relevant Interest Period) and (ii) unless and until a substitute basis is so agreed, the interest payable to such Lenders on the applicable Eurocurrency Loans for the relevant Interest Period will be the rate certified by that Lender to be its cost of funds (from any source which it may reasonably select) plus the Applicable Margin.

2.18 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments. (a) Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Term Loan Percentages or Revolving Credit Percentages, as the case may be, of the relevant Lenders. Subject to Section 2.18(c), each payment (other than prepayments as set forth in Sections 2.18 (b) or (c)) in respect of principal or interest in respect of the Loans, and each payment in respect of fees or expenses payable hereunder shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the Lenders pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to the Lenders. The application of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans and, second, to Eurocurrency Loans.

(b) Each mandatory prepayment required by Section 2.12 to be applied to Term Loans shall be allocated among the Term Loan Facilities pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of Term Loans under such Facilities. Each optional prepayment of the Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.11 shall be allocated among the Term Loan Facilities in accordance with the Borrower’s instructions. Each payment (including each mandatory prepayment) of the Term Loans outstanding under any Term Loan Facility shall be allocated among the Term Loan Lenders holding such Term Loans pro rata based on the principal amount of such Term Loans held by such Term Loan Lenders, and shall be applied to the installments of such Term Loans pro rata based on the remaining outstanding principal amount of such installments. Amounts repaid or prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(c) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans then held by the Revolving Credit Lenders. Each payment in respect of Reimbursement Obligations in connection with any Multicurrency Letter of Credit shall be made to the Multicurrency Issuing Lender.

(d) The application of any payment of Loans under any Facility (excluding optional and including mandatory prepayments) shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans under such Facility and, second, to Eurocurrency Loans under such Facility. Each payment of the Loans shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such payment on the amount paid. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Payment Office, in Dollars or Euros and in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurocurrency Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurocurrency Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower.

(f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment being made hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days of such required date, the Administrative Agent shall

be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.

2.19 Requirements of Law. (a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof:

(i) shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Multicurrency Letter of Credit, any Application or any Eurocurrency Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.20 and changes in the rate of tax or taxes on the overall net income of such Lender by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender is organized or in which such Lender has its principal office or the applicable lending office);

(ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurocurrency Rate hereunder; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurocurrency Loans or issuing or participating in Multicurrency Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, upon its written demand (which shall include the certificate described in Section 2.19(c)), any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender on an after-tax basis for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Multicurrency Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to

time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor (which shall include the certificate described in Section 2.19(c)), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender within 15 days of receipt of such notice such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender on an after-tax basis for such reduction.

(c) A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) with reasonable detail demonstrating how such amounts were derived shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.20 Taxes. (a) All payments made by the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or former connection between the Administrative Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts that would have been received hereunder had such withholding not been required; provided, however, that the Borrower or a Guarantor shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable to the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of paragraph (f) of this Section, or (ii) that are United States withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender at the time the Administrative Agent or such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower or a Guarantor with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.20(a). The Borrower or the applicable Guarantor shall make any required withholding and pay the full amount withheld to the relevant tax authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law.

(b) The Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and any Lender for the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes arising in connection with payments

made under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.20) paid by the Administrative Agent or Lender or any of their respective Affiliates and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax and interest) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, provided that if the Borrower reasonably believes that such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes, as the case may be, were not correctly or legally asserted, the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, will use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to obtain a refund of such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes so long as such efforts would not result in any additional costs, expenses or risks or be otherwise disadvantageous to the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within ten days from the date the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates makes written demand therefor (which demand shall identify the nature and amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes for which indemnification is being sought and shall include a copy of the written assessment from the relevant Governmental Authority demanding payment for such Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes).

(d) Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt, if any, received by the Borrower of evidence showing payment thereof or, if such copy is not available, any other evidence of payment thereof reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) The agreements in this Section 2.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(f) Each Lender (or Assignee) that is not a citizen or resident of the United States of America, a corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States of America (or any jurisdiction thereof), or any estate or trust that is subject to federal income taxation regardless of the source of its income (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) (i) a copy of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (claiming benefits under an applicable treaty) or Form W-8ECI, or, (ii) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit G to the effect that such Lender is eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of U.S. taxes under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code and a Form W-8BEN, in each case, or any subsequent versions of such forms or successors thereto properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S. Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation). In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver new forms on or before the obsolescence, expiration or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender, in each case certifying that such Non-U.S. Lender is entitled to an exemption

from or a reduction of withholding or deduction for or on account of United States federal income taxes in connection with payments under this Agreement and any other Loan Document. Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose). Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(g) The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees that if it subsequently recovers, or actually realizes a permanent net tax benefit with respect to, any amount of Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes (i) previously paid by it and as to which it has been indemnified by or on behalf of the Borrower or (ii) previously deducted by the Borrower (including, without limitation, any Non-Excluded Taxes deducted from any additional sums payable under subsection (a) above) and as to which the Borrower has paid an additional amount under Section 2.20(a) above, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall reimburse the Borrower such portion of any such recovery or permanent net tax benefit as the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, in its sole opinion has determined to be attributable to indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by or on behalf of the Borrower under this Section 2.20 with respect to the Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such recovery or tax benefit and as will leave the Administrative Agent or such Lender in no worse position than it would be in if no such Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes had been imposed; provided, however, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or Lender, agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, the amount paid over to the Borrower (together with any penalties, interest or other charges), in the event the Administrative Agent or Lender is required to repay such amount to the relevant taxing authority or other Government Authority. Nothing in this Section 2.20(g) shall oblige the Administrative Agent or any Lender to disclose to the Borrower or any other person any information regarding its tax affairs or computation and the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall have absolute discretion to arrange their tax affairs in whatever manner the Administrative Agent or such Lender thinks fit.

2.21 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment or conversion of Eurocurrency Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such

Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurocurrency market. A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section, with reasonable detail demonstrating how such amounts were derived, submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and Multicurrency Letters of Credit and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.22 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurocurrency Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (i) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurocurrency Loans, continue Eurocurrency Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Loans shall forthwith be canceled and (ii) with respect to any such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Dollars, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurocurrency Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.21.

2.23 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.19, 2.20(a) or 2.22 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrower or to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event, in each case, with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of any Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, 2.20(a) or 2.22.

2.24 Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances. (a) If at any time (i) any Lender requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.19 or 2.20, (ii) any Lender is in default of its obligations to make Loans hereunder or reimburse the Administrative Agent or a Lender as requested hereunder (any such Lender under this clause (ii), a “Defaulting Lender”) or (iii) any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, on prior notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign at par pursuant to Section 10.6 (with the assignment fee to be paid by the Borrower in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (or, with respect to clause (iii) above, all of its rights and obligations with respect to the Class of Loans or Commitments that is the subject of the related consent, waiver or amendment) to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person unless separately agreed between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; and provided further that (A) in the case of any such assignment

resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.20 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.19, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments with respect to the new Lender and (B) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable Eligible Assignees shall have agreed to the applicable departure, waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents.

(b) In the event that (1)(i) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested that the Lenders consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or agree to any amendment thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 10.1 or all the Lenders with respect to a certain Class of the Loans and (iii) the Required Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment, or (2)(i) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested that all the Lenders holding Delayed Draw Term Commitments consent to a waiver of any condition precedent to funding the Delayed Draw Term Facility set forth in Section 5.2(b) that cannot otherwise be satisfied by the Borrower at the time of borrowing of the Delayed Draw Term Loans and (ii) the Majority Delayed Draw Term Facility Lenders have agreed to such waiver, then, in the case of (1) or (2) above, any Lender who has not agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender.”

2.25 Limitation on Additional Amounts, etc. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 2.19, 2.20 or 2.22 of this Agreement, unless the Administrative Agent or a Lender gives notice to the Borrower that it is obligated to pay an amount under any such Section within 90 days after the later of (x) the date the Lender incurs the respective increased costs, Non-Excluded Taxes, Other Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital or (y) the date such Lender has actual knowledge of its incurrence of the respective increased costs, Non-Excluded Taxes, Other Taxes, loss, expense or liability, reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, such Lender shall not be entitled to be compensated for interest and penalties by the Borrower pursuant to Sections 2.19, 2.20, or 2.22, as the case may be, to the extent such interest or penalties are incurred or suffered on or after such date. This Section 2.25 shall have no applicability to any Section of this Agreement other than Sections 2.19, 2.20 or 2.22.

2.26 Incremental Facilities. (a) The Borrower may, at any time prior to the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the Term Loan Maturity Date (or, in the case of an increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments, one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date), by irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request an increase to the existing Revolving Credit Commitment (any such increase, an “Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment”) and/or incremental term loans (each an “Incremental Term Loan”), in an amount not in excess of $100,000,000 in the aggregate and not less than $25,000,000 individually in the case of Incremental Term Loans and not less than $10,000,000 individually in the case of Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments. Such notice shall specify (A) the date (the “Incremental Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall be effective and/or the date on which the Borrower proposes to borrow such Incremental Term Loan, which date shall be not less than 10 Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to Administrative Agent and (B) the identity of each Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (or any

other Assignee, subject to the consent rights applicable to assignments of Loans set forth in Section 10.6(c)) (each, an “Incremental Revolving Credit Lender” or an “Incremental Term Loan Lender”, as the case may be) to whom the Borrower proposes any portion of such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment or such Incremental Term Loan be allocated and the amounts of such allocations; provided that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment or Incremental Term Loan may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment or Incremental Term Loan. Any Incremental Term Loan shall be made on the applicable Incremental Effective Date and any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall become available for borrowing as of the applicable Incremental Effective Date; provided that (1) both before and after giving effect to the making of such Incremental Term Loan or any Loan pursuant to any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment (any such Loan, an “Incremental Revolving Credit Loan”), each of the conditions set forth in Section 5.3 shall be satisfied; (2) the Parent and its Subsidiaries shall be in pro forma compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 7.1 as of the last day of the most recently ended fiscal quarter after giving effect to such Incremental Term Loan and/or the making of all Incremental Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment; (3) any such Incremental Term Loan or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall be effected pursuant to an incremental lender addendum (an “Incremental Lender Addendum”) executed and delivered by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Incremental Term Loan Lender or Incremental Revolving Credit Lender (as applicable) and each of which shall be recorded in the Register and shall be subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.20(f); and (4) the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered any legal opinions or other documents reasonably requested by Administrative Agent in connection with any such Incremental Term Loan or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment. Any Incremental Term Loans made on an Incremental Effective Date shall be designated a separate series (a “Series”) of Incremental Term Loans for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b) On any Incremental Effective Date, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each Incremental Term Loan Lender shall make an Incremental Term Loan to the Borrower in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Loan Percentage, (ii) each Incremental Term Loan Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to such Incremental Term Loan made pursuant thereto and any Incremental Term Loan shall be a “Term Loan” for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (iii) each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment taking effect on such Incremental Effective Date and any Incremental Revolving Credit Loan pursuant to such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall be a “Revolving Credit Loan” for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(c) The terms and provisions of any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment or Incremental Revolving Credit Loan (including, without limitation, interest rate, borrowing mechanics and termination date) shall be identical to those of the Revolving Credit Commitments and the Revolving Credit Loans, respectively. The terms and provision of any Incremental Term Loan shall be, except as otherwise set forth herein or in the applicable Incremental Lender Addendum, identical to the Tranche B Term Loans. In any event, (i) any Incremental Term Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the other

Loans, (ii) the weighted average life to maturity of any Incremental Term Loan shall be no shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the Tranche B Terms Loans, (iii) the applicable Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date shall be no sooner than the final maturity of the Tranche B Term Loans and (iv) the rate of interest applicable to any Incremental Term Loan shall be determined by the Borrower and the Incremental Term Loan Lenders and shall be set forth in each applicable Incremental Lender Addendum; provided, that to the extent the interest rate applicable to any Loan made under the Incremental Term Loan Facility or increase to the Revolving Credit Commitment is greater than the highest interest rate that may, under any circumstances, be payable with respect to the corresponding Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans, as applicable, the interest rates with respect to such existing Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans, as applicable, shall be increased such that the interest rates applicable to such existing Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans, as applicable, shall not be lower than the interest rate applicable to the Loans under the relevant Incremental Facility.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, no Lender shall be obligated to provide any portion of any Incremental Term Loan or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment unless and until it executes the appropriate Incremental Lender Addendum with respect thereto.

(e) On any Incremental Effective Date with respect to any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment, the Revolving Credit Lenders (including the Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders), under the direction of the Administrative Agent, shall reallocate outstanding Revolving Credit Loans (and participations in Swing Line Loans and Multicurrency Letters of Credit) so that the Revolving Credit Loans held by each such Lender are equal to such Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage (after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment).

SECTION 3. MULTICURRENCY LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1 Multicurrency L/C Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Multicurrency Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue multicurrency letters of credit (“Multicurrency Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower on any Business Day during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender; provided that no Multicurrency Issuing Lender shall have any obligation to issue any Multicurrency Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the Multicurrency L/C Obligations would exceed the Multicurrency L/C Commitment, or (ii) the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Credit Dollar Commitment would be less than zero. Each Multicurrency Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars or Euros and (ii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date which is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, provided that any Multicurrency Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above).

(b) No Multicurrency Issuing Lender shall at any time be obligated to issue any Multicurrency Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause such Multicurrency Issuing Lender or any Multicurrency L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law.

3.2 Procedure for Issuance of Multicurrency Letter of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that a Multicurrency Issuing Lender issue a Multicurrency Letter of Credit by delivering to such Multicurrency Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of such Multicurrency Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such Multicurrency Issuing Lender may request. Upon receipt of any Application, a Multicurrency Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Multicurrency Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall any Multicurrency Issuing Lender be required to issue any Multicurrency Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Multicurrency Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by the Multicurrency Issuing Lender and the Borrower. The Multicurrency Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Multicurrency Letter of Credit to the Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof. Promptly after issuance by a Multicurrency Issuing Lender of a Multicurrency Letter of Credit, such Multicurrency Issuing Lender shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the Lenders, notice of the issuance of each Multicurrency Letter of Credit (including the amount and currency thereof).

3.3 Fees and Other Charges. (a) The Borrower will pay a fee on the aggregate drawable amount of all outstanding Multicurrency Letter of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurocurrency Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, shared ratably among the Revolving Credit Dollar Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Dollar Percentages and payable quarterly in arrears on each Multicurrency L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date of such Multicurrency Letter of Credit. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the relevant Multicurrency Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee on the aggregate drawable amount of all outstanding Multicurrency Letters of Credit issued by it of 1/8 of 1% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears on each Multicurrency L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date of such Multicurrency Letter of Credit.

(b) In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse each Multicurrency Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Multicurrency Letter of Credit.

3.4 Multicurrency L/C Participations. (a) Each Multicurrency Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each Multicurrency L/C Participant, and, to induce each Multicurrency Issuing Lender to issue Multicurrency Letters of Credit hereunder, each Multicurrency L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from each Multicurrency Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such Multicurrency L/C Participant’s own account and risk, an undivided interest

equal to such Multicurrency L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Percentage in each Multicurrency Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under each Multicurrency Letter of Credit issued by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender thereunder. Each Multicurrency L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with each Multicurrency Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Multicurrency Letter of Credit issued by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender for which such Multicurrency Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Multicurrency L/C Participant shall pay to such Multicurrency Issuing Lender, regardless of the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, upon demand, at such Multicurrency Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein the amount equal to such Multicurrency L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed in the currency of such draft or of the amount of such outstanding Multicurrency Letter of Credit.

(b) If any amount required to be paid by any Multicurrency L/C Participant to a Multicurrency Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender under any Multicurrency Letter of Credit is paid to such Multicurrency Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Multicurrency L/C Participant shall pay to the Multicurrency Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Multicurrency Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any Multicurrency L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the Multicurrency Issuing Lender by such Multicurrency L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the Multicurrency Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Multicurrency L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility. A certificate of the Multicurrency Issuing Lender submitted to any Multicurrency L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

(c) Whenever, at any time after a Multicurrency Issuing Lender has made payment under any Multicurrency Letter of Credit and has received from any Multicurrency L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), such Multicurrency Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Multicurrency Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Multicurrency Issuing Lender will distribute to such Multicurrency L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender, such Multicurrency L/C Participant shall return to the Multicurrency Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender to it.

3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Multicurrency Issuing Lender on each Business Day on which such Multicurrency Issuing Lender notifies the Borrower of the date and amount of a draft presented under any Multicurrency Letter of Credit and paid by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender for the amount of (a) such draft so paid and (b) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by such Multicurrency Issuing Lender in connection with such payment (the amounts described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) in respect of any drawing, collectively, the “Payment Amount”). Each such payment shall be made to such Multicurrency Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein in the currency in which such Multicurrency Letter of Credit was denominated and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be payable on each Payment Amount from the date of the applicable drawing until payment in full at the rate set forth in (i) until the second Business Day following the date of the applicable drawing, Section 2.15(b) and (ii) thereafter, Section 2.15(c). Each drawing under any Multicurrency Letter of Credit shall (unless an event of the type described in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 8(f) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower, in which case the procedures specified in Section 3.4 for funding by Multicurrency L/C Participants shall apply) constitute a request by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for a borrowing pursuant to Section 2.5 of Base Rate Loans (or, at the option of the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender in their sole discretion, a borrowing pursuant to Section 2.7 of Swing Line Loans) in the amount of such drawing. The Borrowing Date with respect to such borrowing shall be the first date on which a borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans (or, if applicable, Swing Line Loans) could be made, pursuant to Section 2.5 (or, if applicable, Section 2.7), if the Administrative Agent had received a notice of such borrowing at the time of such drawing under such Multicurrency Letter of Credit.

3.6 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against any Multicurrency Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Multicurrency Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Borrower also agrees with each Multicurrency Issuing Lender that such Multicurrency Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Multicurrency Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Multicurrency Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Multicurrency Letter of Credit or any such transferee. No Multicurrency Issuing Lender shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Multicurrency Letter of Credit. The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by a Multicurrency Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Multicurrency Letter of Credit issued by it or the related drafts or documents, if done in accordance with the standards of care specified in the UCC of the State of New York, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of such Multicurrency Issuing Lender to the Borrower.

3.7 Multicurrency Letter of Credit Payments. If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Multicurrency Letter of Credit, the relevant Multicurrency Issuing Lender

shall promptly notify the Borrower of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of the relevant Multicurrency Issuing Lender to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Multicurrency Letter of Credit, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Multicurrency Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, shall be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Multicurrency Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity with such Multicurrency Letter of Credit.

3.8 Applications. To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Multicurrency Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall apply.

3.9 Currency Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, for purposes of calculating any fee in respect of any Multicurrency Letter of Credit denominated in Euros, the Administrative Agent shall convert the amount available to be drawn under any Multicurrency Letter of Credit denominated in Euros into its Dollar Equivalent.

SECTION 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and issue or participate in the Multicurrency Letters of Credit, the Parent and the Borrower hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and each Lender that:

4.1 Financial Condition.

(a) The unaudited pro forma consolidated and consolidating balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2007 (including the notes thereto) (the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet”), copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, has been prepared giving effect (as if such events had occurred on such date) to (i) the Tranche B Term Loans made on the Closing Date and the use of proceeds thereof, (ii) the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing and (iii) the consummation of the Acquisition. The Pro Forma Balance Sheet has been prepared based on the best information available to the Borrower as of the date of delivery thereof and on good faith estimates and assumptions reasonably believed by it to be reasonable as of the date of delivery thereof, and presents fairly on a pro forma basis the estimated financial position of Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2007, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date.

(b) The audited consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries (other than the Acquired Business and its Subsidiaries) as at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal years ended on such dates, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report from Ernst & Young, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and the consolidated

results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the respective fiscal years then ended. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2007, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three-month period ended on such date, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the three-month period then ended (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes). All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein). Except as set forth in Schedule 4.1(b), as of the Closing Date the Parent, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries do not have any material Guarantee Obligations, material contingent liabilities and material liabilities for taxes, or any material long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments, including, without limitation, any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that existed as of the date of but are not reflected in the most recent financial statements referred to in this paragraph.

4.2 No Change. Since March 31, 2007, there has been no development or event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.3 Corporate Existence; Compliance with Law. Each Loan Party (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the requisite power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its material Property, to lease the Property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation (or other entity) and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of Property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except to the extent that the failure to so qualify could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.4 Corporate Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors has the requisite power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to borrow hereunder. Each of the Borrower and the Guarantors has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the borrowings on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No material consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to, Permit from or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority and no consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of any other Person is required in connection with the borrowings hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices which have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and (ii) the filings referred to in Section 4.19. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each of the Borrower and the Guarantors. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each of

the Borrower and the Guarantors, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the issuance of Multicurrency Letters of Credit, the consummation of the Acquisition, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of any of the Borrower or the Guarantors which violation would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents). No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation applicable to any Loan Party could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.6 No Material Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 4.6, no litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened by or against any Loan Party against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (b) that, if reasonably likely to be adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.7 No Default. No Loan Party is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

4.8 Ownership of Property; Liens. Each Loan Party has good, marketable and insurable title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its material real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other material Property used in its business as currently conducted except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and none of such Property is subject to any Lien except for any Permitted Lien. None of the Pledged Stock is subject to any Lien except for Permitted Liens.

4.9 Intellectual Property. Each Loan Party owns, or is licensed to use, all material Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No material claim has been asserted or is pending by any Person challenging or questioning the use or validity of Intellectual Property owned by a Loan Party that is necessary for the conduct of such Loan Party’s business as currently conducted, nor does the Borrower or the Parent know of any valid basis for any such claim except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. A Loan Party’s use of Intellectual Property owned by such Loan Party that is necessary for the conduct of such Loan Party’s business as currently conducted does not knowingly and materially infringe the patent rights of any Person, and does not materially infringe the trade secret, copyright or other Intellectual Property rights of any Person.

(b) As of the Closing Date Schedule 4.9(b) (i) identifies registrations and applications for each of the trademarks, service marks and trade names owned by any Loan Party and any material unregistered trademarks or service marks owned by any Loan Party and identifies which such Person registered, made or otherwise holds such Intellectual Property, and (ii) specifies as to each, the jurisdiction in which such Intellectual Property has been used, issued or registered (or, if applicable, in which an application for such issuance or registration has been filed), including the respective registration or application numbers.

(c) As of the Closing Date, Schedule 4.9(c) (i) identifies each of the patents and patent applications owned by any Loan Party and identifies which such Person owns such Intellectual Property, and (ii) specifies as to each, the jurisdiction in which such Intellectual Property has been issued or registered (or, if applicable, in which an application for such issuance or registration has been filed), including the respective patent or application numbers.

(d) As of the Closing Date, Schedule 4.9(d) (i) identifies each of the copyright registrations and copyright applications owned by any Loan Party and any material Copyrights that have not been registered or for which applications for registration have not been filed owned by any Loan Party and identifies which such Person registered, made or otherwise holds such Intellectual Property, and (ii) specifies as to each, the jurisdiction in which such Intellectual Property has been issued or registered (or, if applicable, in which an application for such issuance or registration has been filed), including the respective registration or application numbers.

(e) As of the Closing Date, Schedule 4.9(e) identifies all material licenses, sublicenses and other agreements pursuant to which (i) Borrower licenses or sublicenses Intellectual Property owned by it to a third party (other than routine licenses of software to its customers made in the normal course of providing services to such customers and licenses granted pursuant to the Intellectual Property Agreement) or (ii) Borrower licenses or sublicenses Intellectual Property required for its business as currently conducted from any other Person.

(f) As of the Closing Date, each of the trademark applications and registrations, and each of the patents and applications for patents, and each of the copyright applications and registrations listed on Schedules 4.9(b), (c), (d) and (e), respectively, are valid and subsisting and each, according to the records of the United States Patent and Trademark Office regarding patents and trademarks and the United States Copyright Office regarding Copyrights, is owned by the entity listed as owner on such Schedules, and each is free from any recorded liens, licenses or other encumbrances, other than Permitted Liens.

4.10 Taxes. Each Loan Party has filed or caused to be filed all federal, material state and other material tax returns that are required to be filed and has paid (prior to the date penalties attach thereto) all taxes shown thereon to be due and payable and all other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its Property by any Governmental Authority (other than any the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on

the books of such Loan Party); the contents of all such tax returns are correct and complete in all material respects except where the incorrectness or incompleteness could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, no tax Lien has been filed that would not be a Permitted Lien, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, no claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge except where the claims could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

4.11 Federal Regulations. No part of the proceeds of the Loans or Multicurrency Letters of Credit will be used for purchasing or carrying any “margin stock” (within the meaning of Regulation U) or for the purpose of purchasing, carrying or trading in any securities under such circumstances as to involve the Borrower in a violation of Regulation X or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T. No indebtedness being reduced or retired out of the proceeds of the Loans or Multicurrency Letters of Credit was or will be incurred for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any “margin stock” (within the meaning of Regulation U) in violation of Regulation U. Following application of the proceeds of the Loans and Multicurrency Letters of Credit, “margin stock” (within the meaning of Regulation U) does not constitute more than 25% of the value of the assets of the Loan Parties. None of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, the direct and indirect use of proceeds of the Loans and Multicurrency Letters of Credit) will violate or result in a violation of Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X. If requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U-1 referred to in Regulation U.

4.12 Labor Matters. There are no strikes, stoppages, slowdowns or other labor disputes against any of the Loan Parties pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Hours worked by and payment made to employees of the Loan Parties have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Requirement of Law dealing with such matters that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All payments due from any Loan Party on account of employee health and welfare insurance that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect if not paid have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of the relevant Loan Party.

4.13 ERISA. Neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan has complied in all respects with all applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code, except to the extent any non-compliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period. The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material amount. Neither the Borrower nor any

Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any material liability under ERISA if the Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made. No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent.

4.14 Investment Company Act; Other Regulations. No Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No Loan Party is subject to regulation under any Requirement of Law (other than Regulation X) which limits or conditions its ability to incur Indebtedness.

4.15 Subsidiaries. (a) Schedule 4.15(a) sets forth the ownership structure of each Loan Party, other than the type, number or holder of the equity interests of the Parent. Schedule 4.15(a) sets forth the name and jurisdiction of incorporation of each Loan Party and, as to each such Loan Party (other than the Parent), the percentage and number of each class of Capital Stock owned by any other Loan Party. Schedule 4.15(a) will be updated by the Borrower to reflect any permitted restructuring, Permitted Acquisition, or other corporate changes otherwise permitted hereunder.

(b) Except as set forth on Schedule 4.15(b), there are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options or other similar rights granted to employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Capital Stock of the Parent, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary. No Loan Party has issued, or authorized the issuance of, any Disqualified Stock, other than the issuances of Disqualified Stock of the Parent expressly permitted hereunder.

4.16 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be used to consummate the Acquisition and to pay related fees and expenses. The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be used to prepay or redeem the Senior Subordinated Notes and the Revolving Credit Loans, Swing Line Loans, and the Multicurrency Letters of Credit shall be used for general corporate and working capital purposes and for Investments permitted hereunder. The proceeds of any Incremental Term Loans shall be used for general corporate purposes, for Investments permitted hereunder and to prepay the Senior Subordinated Notes. The proceeds of any extensions of credit pursuant to any Incremental Revolving Credit Loans shall be used to prepay or redeem the Senior Subordinated Notes and for general corporate and working capital purposes and for Investments permitted hereunder.

4.17 Environmental Matters.

(a) There are no environmental audits conforming to the standards of the ASTM “Standard Practice for Environmental Assessments: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process” or other written environmental assessments that have been prepared as to any of the Collateral (or any sites at which Collateral is located) and that are in the possession of the Loan Parties which have not been provided to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Other than exceptions to any of the following that would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:

(i) Each Loan Party: (A) is, and within the period of all applicable statutes of limitation has been, in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws and Environmental Permits; and (B) reasonably believes that compliance with all applicable Environmental Law that is or is expected to become applicable to any of them will be timely attained and maintained, without material expense.

(ii) Materials of Environmental Concern are not present at, on, under, in, or about any real property now or formerly owned, leased or operated by any Loan Party, or at any other location (including, without limitation, any location to which Materials of Environmental Concern have been sent for re-use or recycling or for treatment, storage, or disposal) which could reasonably be expected to (A) give rise to liability of any Loan Party under any applicable Environmental Law or otherwise result in costs to any Loan Party, or (B) materially interfere with any Loan Party’s continued operations, or (C) materially impair the fair saleable value of any real property owned or leased by any Loan Party.

(iii) There is no pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened judicial, administrative, or arbitral proceeding (including any notice of violation or alleged violation) under or relating to any Environmental Law to which any Loan Party is, or to the knowledge of the Borrower will be, named as a party.

(iv) No Loan Party has received any written request for information, or been notified that it is a potentially responsible party under or relating to the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act or any similar Environmental Law, or with respect to any Materials of Environmental Concern.

4.18 Accuracy of Information, etc. To the best of the Borrower’s knowledge, no statement or information contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Confidential Information Memorandum or any other document, certificate or statement (excluding any projections, pro formas or estimates or general market data included in any such statement, document or certificate) relating to any Loan Party furnished to the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders or any of them, by or on behalf of any Loan Party for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, contained as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished (or, in the case of the Confidential Information Memorandum (after giving effect to any changes

in the term sheet contained therein, to the extent disclosed to the Lenders), as of the date of this Agreement), any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not materially misleading. The projections and pro forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount.

4.19 Security Documents.

(a) The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein (except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought in proceedings in equity or at law)) and proceeds and products thereof. In the case of the Pledged Stock, when any stock certificates representing such Pledged Stock are delivered to the Administrative Agent together with any necessary endorsements, and in the case of the other Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with respect to which a security interest may be perfected by filing, when financing statements in appropriate form are properly filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.19(a) (which financing statements may be filed by the Administrative Agent at any time) and such other filings as are specified on Schedule 3 to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement are made (all of which filings have been duly completed and may be filed by the Administrative Agent at any time), in each case together with provision for payment of all requisite fees, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds and products thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except Permitted Liens).

(b) Each Intellectual Property Security Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid, binding and enforceable security interest (except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally and by general equitable principals (whether enforcement is sought in proceedings in equity or at law)) in the United States Intellectual Property Collateral described therein and proceeds and products thereof. Upon the filing of (i) such Intellectual Property Security Agreement in the appropriate indexes of the United States Patent and Trademark Office relative to patents and trademarks (within three (3) months after the execution of such Intellectual Property Security Agreement), and the United States Copyright Office relative to copyrights (within thirty (30) days after the execution of such Intellectual Property Security Agreement), together with provision for payment of all requisite fees, and (ii) financing statements in appropriate form for filing in the offices specified on Schedule 4.19(b) (which financing statements may be filed by the Administrative Agent at any time), together with

provision for payment of all requisite fees, such Intellectual Property Security Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the United States Intellectual Property Collateral described therein and the proceeds and products thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except Permitted Liens).

(c) When executed, the Dutch Pledge Agreement will be effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds and products thereof. When all actions and filing as are specified in the Dutch Pledge Agreement are made, in each case together with provision for payment of all requisite fees, the Dutch Pledge Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral and the proceeds and products thereof, as security for the Parallel Debts (as defined in the Dutch Pledge Agreement), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except Permitted Liens).

4.20 Solvency. The Loan Parties, taken as a whole, are, and after giving effect to the Acquisition and the incurrence of all Indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection with the Loan Documents will be, and will continue to be, Solvent.

4.21 Senior Indebtedness. The Obligations (including, without limitation, the guarantee obligations of each Guarantor under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) constitute “Senior Debt,” “Designated Senior Debt” and “Permitted Debt” under and as defined in the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture.

4.22 Insurance. Each Loan Party is insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent in the reasonable judgment of its management. No Loan Party (i) has received written notice from any insurer or agent of such insurer that substantial capital improvements or other material expenditures will have to be made in order to continue such insurance that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers at a cost that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.23 Real Property. No Loan Party owns any real property except as set forth on Schedule 4.23. Any real property leased by any Loan Party with a monthly rent in excess of $50,000.00 is listed on Schedule 4.23 (including location, lease term and monthly rent). To the extent that the Borrower or any Loan Party acquires or leases any real property in a transaction not prohibited hereunder, the Borrower shall submit a revised Schedule 4.23 to the Administrative Agent to reflect such acquisition or lease.

Other than exceptions to any of the following that could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: (i) each Loan Party has obtained and holds all Permits required for any property owned, leased or otherwise operated by or on behalf of, or for the benefit of, such Person and for the operation of

each of its businesses as presently conducted and as proposed to be conducted, (ii) all such Permits are in full force and effect, and each Loan Party has performed and observed all requirements of such Permits, (iii) no event has occurred which allows or results in, or after notice or lapse of time would allow or result in, revocation or termination by the issuer thereof or in any other impairment of the rights of the holder of any such Permit, (iv) no such Permits contain any restrictions, either individually or in the aggregate, that are materially burdensome to any Loan Party, or to the operation of any of its businesses or any property owned, leased or otherwise operated by such Person, (v) no Loan Party has received any written notice that any of its Permits will not be timely renewed and complied with, without material expense, or that any additional Permits that may be required of such Person will not be timely obtained and complied with, without material expense and such renewal or compliance, in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (vi) neither the Parent nor the Borrower has any knowledge or reason to believe that any Governmental Authority is considering limiting, suspending, revoking or renewing on materially burdensome terms any material Permit and such limitation, suspension, revocation or burdensome terms could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (f) above with respect to any Loan Party, automatically the Commitments shall immediately terminate and the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all amounts of Multicurrency L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Multicurrency Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) shall immediately become due and payable, and (B) if such event is any other Event of Default, with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all amounts of Multicurrency L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Multicurrency Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to exercise any and all remedies available under the

Security Documents, including, without limitation, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any Mortgage, or otherwise available under applicable law or otherwise. With respect to all Multicurrency Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Multicurrency Letters of Credit (and the Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in all amounts at any time on deposit in such cash collateral account to secure the undrawn and unexpired amount of such Multicurrency Letters of Credit and all other Obligations). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines in good faith and in its reasonable business judgment that any funds held in such cash collateral account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate undrawn and unexpired amount of outstanding Multicurrency Letters of Credit, the Borrower shall, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent (together with notice received of any such Person’s claim or right, if any), pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in such cash collateral account, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate undrawn and unexpired amount over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in such cash collateral account (which shall permit overnight investments in certain Cash Equivalents selected by the Administrative Agent until such funds are applied to the Obligations) that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Multicurrency Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Multicurrency Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other Obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. After all such Multicurrency Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full (excluding Obligations in respect of any Specified Hedge Agreement and unmatured contingent reimbursement and indemnification Obligations), the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Loan Parties (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto).

8.2 Specified Equity Contributions. For purposes of determining compliance with Section 7.1(a), any cash equity contribution (other than in respect of Disqualified Stock of the Borrower), made to the Borrower or Parent, as the case may be, on or prior to the day that is thirty (30) Business Days after the day on which financial statements are required to be delivered for a fiscal quarter will, at the request of the Borrower, be included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA for the purposes of determining compliance with such financial covenant at the end of such fiscal quarter and applicable subsequent periods (any such equity contribution so included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA, a “Specified Equity Contribution”); provided that (a) in each four fiscal quarter period, there shall be a period of at least two fiscal quarters in respect of which no Specified Equity Contribution is made and (b) all Specified Equity Contributions shall be disregarded for any purpose under any Loan Document other than determining compliance with Section 7.1(a).

If, after the making of the Specified Equity Contribution and the recalculations of Consolidated EBITDA pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Borrower shall then be in compliance with the requirements of Section 7.1(a), the Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of such covenant as of the relevant date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable Event of Default that had occurred shall be deemed cured.

SECTION 9. THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT; THE ARRANGERS

9.1 Appointment. Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Administrative Agent as the agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against the Administrative Agent.

9.2 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. None of the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely and proximately from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct in breach of a duty owed to the party asserting liability) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party.

9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to any Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders or the requisite Lenders required under Section 10.1 to authorize or require such action (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders or the requisite Lenders under Section 10.1 to authorize or require such action (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans and Multicurrency Letters of Credit.

9.5 Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender, the Parent or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the requisite Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

9.6 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that none of the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, partners, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and

creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans (and in the case of the Multicurrency Issuing Lender, its Multicurrency Letters of Credit) hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, partners, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

9.7 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Parent or the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Parent or the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely and proximately from the Arrangers’ or the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in breach of a duty owed to such Lender. The agreements in this Section 9.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans and Multicurrency Letters of Credit and all other amounts payable hereunder.

9.8 The Arrangers and the Administrative Agent in Their Individual Capacities. The Arrangers and the Administrative Agent and their respective affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though the Arrangers were not the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent was not the Administrative Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and with respect to any Multicurrency Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other

Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Arranger or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent in their respective individual capacities.

9.9 Successor Administrative Agents. The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8(a) or Section 8(f) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans or Multicurrency Letters of Credit. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

9.10 Authorization to Release Liens. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to release any Lien covering any Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is the subject of a Disposition which is permitted by this Agreement or which has been consented to in accordance with Section 10.1.

9.11 The Arrangers and the Syndication Agent. Each of the Arrangers and the Syndication Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities, and shall incur no liability, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

9.12 Withholding Tax. (a) To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the forms or other documentation required by Section 2.20(f) are not delivered to the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender not providing such forms or other documentation, an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax.

(b) If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative

Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses.

(c) If any Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers its rights under this Agreement, the purchaser, assignee, participant or transferee, as applicable, shall comply and be bound by the terms of Sections 2.20(f) and 9.12.

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Amendments and Waivers. Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1. The Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, or (with the written consent of the Required Lenders) the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents (including amendments and restatements hereof or thereof) for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as may be specified in the instrument of waiver, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest (other than the waiver of default interest) or fee (including any prepayment premium) payable hereunder or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof in each case without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (ii) increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Commitment of any Lender without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of mandatory reductions of Commitments shall not constitute an increase in the Commitment of any Lender), (iii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section or reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by any Loan Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their guarantee obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case without the consent of all Lenders unless otherwise expressly permitted herein or in any other Loan Document; (iv) amend, modify or waive any condition precedent to any extension of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility set forth in Section 5.3 (including, without limitation, the waiver of an existing Default or Event of Default required to be waived in order for such extension of credit to be made) without the consent of the Majority Revolving Credit Facility Lenders; (v) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Facility Lenders with respect to any Facility without the written consent of all Lenders under such Facility; (vi) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 or any other provision of any Loan Document

100

relating to the obligations of the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent without the consent of the Arrangers or the Administrative Agent directly affected thereby; (vii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.6 or 2.7 without the written consent of the Swing Line Lender; (viii) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 2.18 without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; or (ix) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 3 without the consent of the Multicurrency Issuing Lender. Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and all future holders of the Loans and Multicurrency Letters of Credit. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon. Any such waiver, amendment, supplement or modification shall be effected by a written instrument signed by the parties required to sign pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section; provided, that delivery of an executed signature page of any such instrument by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as such term is defined below) to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term Loans as of the applicable date of determination (the “Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder (the “Replacement Term Loans”), provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (ii) the Applicable Margin for such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the Applicable Margin for such Refinanced Term Loans, (iii) the weighted average life of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing and (iv) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially the same as, and no less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, the terms applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the maturity date in respect of the Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and any other Loan Document may be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment is delivered in order to cure ambiguities or defects of a technical or immaterial nature in this Agreement or the applicable Loan Document.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, with the consent of each Lender holding Delayed Draw Term Commitments, any condition precedent to funding of the Delayed Draw Term Loans set forth in Section 5.2(b) may be waived (it being understood that any such waiver shall not operate as a waiver of any underlying Default or Event of Default resulting in such condition precedent not being satisfied) and it is understood that the Delayed Draw Term Loans will be funded if the conditions precedent described in Section 5.2 are satisfied or waived in accordance with terms hereof.

10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for all their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the syndication of the Facilities (other than fees payable to syndicate members) and the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements and other charges of counsel to the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent and the charges of IntraLinks; provided that, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists and is continuing, reimbursement of the Administrative Agent’s expenses in connection with visits pursuant to Section 6.6 shall be limited to reimbursement of one visit per quarter, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender, the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for all its reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or

103

preservation of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of one primary counsel plus the reasonable fees and disbursements of any local and specialist counsel engaged by the Administrative Agent, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, their respective affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, partners, trustees, employees, affiliates, shareholders, attorneys and other advisors, agents, attorneys–in–fact and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to or arising out of any claim, proceeding, litigation, or other action concerning or relating to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans or Multicurrency Letters of Credit, the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of any Loan Party or any of the Properties or the use by unauthorized persons of information or other materials sent through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems that are intercepted by such persons and to reimburse them for all fees and disbursements and other charges of one legal counsel for all Indemnitees in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against the Borrower hereunder (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that the Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely and proximately from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries so to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee, provided, that the Borrower shall not waive (or cause its Subsidiaries to waive) any such rights for contribution or other rights of recovery to the extent such claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, or other expenses are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely and proximately from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than five days after written demand therefor. Statements payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be submitted to the Borrower in accordance with Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent. The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of the Loans and Multicurrency Letters of Credit and all other amounts payable hereunder.

10.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parent, the Borrower, the Lenders, the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, all future holders of the Loans and Multicurrency Letters of Credit and their respective successors and assigns, except that neither the Parent nor the Borrower may assign or transfer any of their respective rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and each Lender.

(b) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or any other Person, in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities (each, a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Borrower, the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In no event shall any Participant under any such participation have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees payable hereunder, or postpone the date of the final maturity of the Loans, in each case to the extent subject to such participation. The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the Loans are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, provided that, in purchasing such participating interest, such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as provided in Section 10.7(a) as fully as if it were a Lender hereunder. The Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.19, 2.20 and 2.21 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time as if it was a Lender; provided that, in the case of Section 2.20, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said Section and provided, further, that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any such Section than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender may participate its interest to a competitor of the Principal or the Borrower.

(c) Any Lender (an “Assignor”) may, in accordance with applicable law and upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time and from time to time assign to any Lender or any affiliate or Affiliated Fund of the assigning Lender or another Lender thereof

105

(each, an “Eligible Assignee”) or, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any assignment of Revolving Credit Commitments, the written consent of the Multicurrency Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender (which, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to an additional bank, financial institution or other entity (an “Assignee”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption, substantially in the form of Exhibit D (an “Assignment and Assumption”), executed by such Assignee and such Assignor (and, where the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Multicurrency Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender is required pursuant to the foregoing provisions, by the Borrower and such other Persons) and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register; provided that no such assignment to an Assignee (other than any Lender or any affiliate or Affiliated Fund of any Lender) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of less than $1.0 million (in the case of Term Loans) and $5.0 million (with respect to all other Loans and Commitments) (other than in the case of (i) an assignment of all of a Lender’s interests under this Agreement and (ii) simultaneous assignments to or by Approved Funds, which shall be aggregated for this purpose), unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Any such assignment need not be ratable as among the Facilities. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Commitment and/or Loans as set forth therein, and (y) the Assignor thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of an Assignor’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Assignor shall cease to be a party hereto). Notwithstanding any provision of this Section, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required for any assignment that occurs at any time when any Event of Default under Sections 8.1(a) or 8.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender may assign its interest to a competitor of the Principal or the Borrower.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall, on behalf of the Borrower, maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.2 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loans and any Notes evidencing such Loans recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement. Any assignment of any Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register (and each Note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a Note shall be registered on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing such Loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and Assumption; thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee, and the old Notes shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower marked “canceled”. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

106

(e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an Assignor and an Assignee (and, in any case where the consent of any other Person is required by Section 10.6(c), by each such other Person) together with any tax forms required by Section 2.20 and payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable (y) in connection with an assignment by or to a ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Entity or (z) in the case of an Assignee which is already a Lender or is an affiliate of a Lender or an Affiliated Fund (and in the case of assignments on the same day from a Lender to more than one fund managed or advised by the same investment advisor (which funds are not then Lenders hereunder) and simultaneous assignments by Approved Funds, only a single $3,500 registration and processing fee shall be payable for all such assignments by such Lender to such funds)), the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Assumption and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Borrower. On or prior to such effective date, the Borrower, at its own expense, upon request, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (in exchange for the Revolving Credit Note and/or applicable Term Notes, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender) a new Revolving Credit Note and/or applicable Term Notes, as the case may be, to such Assignee or its registered assigns in an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment and/or applicable Term Loans, as the case may be, assumed or acquired by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption and, if the Assignor has retained a Revolving Credit Commitment and/or Term Loans, as the case may be, upon request, a new Revolving Credit Note and/or Term Notes, as the case may be, to the Assignor or its registered assigns in an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment and/or applicable Term Loans, as the case may be, retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be dated the Closing Date and shall otherwise be in the form of the Note or Notes replaced thereby.

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section concerning assignments of Loans and Notes relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law. In the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans, such Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, assign or pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, including the Loans and Notes or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement, to any holder of, trustee for, or any other representative of holders of, obligations owed or securities issued, by such fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided that any foreclosure or similar action by such trustee or representative shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 10.6 concerning assignments.

10.7 Adjustments; Set-off.

(a) Except to the extent that this Agreement provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender (a

107

“Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Obligations, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Obligations, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Parent or the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Parent and the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount to the extent due and payable by the Parent or the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity or by acceleration), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, other than trust accounts, tax accounts, health benefit accounts, pay roll accounts and accounts with less than $150,000 on deposit), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of either the Parent or the Borrower, as the case may be. Each Lender agrees to notify promptly the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

10.10 Integration. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of the Parent, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

108

10.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

10.12 Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. Each of the Parent and the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its Property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Parent or the Borrower, as the case may be at its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to ▇▇▇ in any other jurisdiction; and

(e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

109

(c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or among the Parent, the Borrower and the Lenders.

Each of the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to keep confidential all non-public information provided to it by any Loan Party or any of such Loan Party’s attorneys, agents or accountants pursuant to this Agreement; provided that nothing herein shall prevent the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent or any Lender from disclosing any such information (a) to (i) the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or (ii) any affiliate of any thereof that is obligated to hold such information in confidence, (b) to any Participant or Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) or prospective Transferee that agrees to comply with the provisions of this Section, (c) to any of its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors who are obligated to hold such information in confidence, (d) to any pledgee referred to in Section 10.6(f) or any financial institution that is a direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such pledgee or contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section), (e) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it, (f) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, (g) if requested or required to do so in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding, (h) that has been publicly disclosed other than in breach of this Section, (i) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or (j) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

10.15 Release of Collateral and Guarantee Obligations

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon request of the Borrower in connection with any Disposition of Property permitted by the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall (without notice to or vote or consent of any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Specified Hedge Agreement) take such actions as shall be reasonably determined to be necessary to release its security interest in any Collateral being Disposed of in such Disposition, and to release any guarantee obligations of any Person being Disposed of in such Disposition, to the extent necessary to permit consummation of such Disposition in accordance with the Loan Documents provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least five Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release identifying the relevant Collateral being Disposed of in such Disposition and the terms of such Disposition in reasonable detail, including the date thereof, the price thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that the proceeds of such Disposition will be applied in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

110

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, when all Obligations (other than Obligations in respect of any Specified Hedge Agreement and any unmatured contingent reimbursement and indemnification Obligations) have been paid in full, all Commitments have terminated or expired and no Multicurrency Letter of Credit shall be outstanding, upon request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall (without notice to or vote or consent of any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Specified Hedge Agreement) take such actions as shall be reasonably necessary or required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations provided for in any Loan Document, whether or not on the date of such release there may be outstanding Obligations in respect of Specified Hedge Agreements.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document (i) a Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder upon the consummation of any transaction permitted hereunder as a result of which such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower and (ii) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (A) if a Subsidiary Guarantor is or becomes an Immaterial Subsidiary, and such release would not result in any Immaterial Subsidiary being required pursuant to Section 6.10(e) to become a Loan Party hereunder (except to the extent that on and as of the date of such release, one or more other Immaterial Subsidiaries become Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder and the provisions of Section 6.10(e) are satisfied upon giving effect to all such additions and releases), or (B) a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 7.8, then in the case of each of clauses (A) and (B), such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder upon notification thereof from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent. In connection with any such release, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Subsidiary Guarantor, at such Subsidiary Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Subsidiary Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 10.15 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

10.16 Accounting Changes. In the event that any Accounting Change (as defined below) shall occur and such change results in a change in the method of calculation of financial covenants, standards or terms in this Agreement, then the Parent, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions of this Agreement so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the Parent’s and the Borrower’s financial condition shall be the same after such Accounting Changes as if such Accounting Changes had not been made. Until such time as such an amendment shall have been executed and delivered by the Parent, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, all financial covenants, standards and terms in this Agreement shall continue to be calculated or construed as if such Accounting Changes had not occurred. “Accounting Changes” refers to changes in accounting principles required or permitted by the promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or, if applicable, the SEC.

111

10.17 Delivery of Lender Addenda. Each initial Lender shall become a party to this Agreement by delivering to the Administrative Agent a Lender Addendum duly executed by such Lender, the Parent, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

10.18 Construction. Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant. Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

10.19 Confirmation. The Borrower confirms that interest payable hereunder accrues on the stated principal amount of the Loans and not on the accreted value thereof.

10.20 WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARENT, THE BORROWER, THE ARRANGERS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

10.21 Customer Identification - USA PATRIOT Act Notice. The Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any other party), the Syndication Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any other party) and each Lender hereby notifies the Loan Parties that, pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, Title III of Pub. L. 107-56, signed into law October 26, 2001 (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of the Loan Parties and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent or such Lender, as applicable, to identify the Loan Parties in accordance with the Act.

10.22 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent may in accordance with normal banking procedures 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 Administrative Agent from any Borrower in

112

the Agreement Currency, such Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

10.23 No Novation. This Agreement does not extinguish the obligations for the payment of money outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement or constitute a novation thereof or discharge or release the Existing Obligations or the lien or priority of any mortgage, pledge, security agreement or any other security therefor. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a substitution or novation of the obligations outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement or instruments securing the same, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified hereby or by instruments executed concurrently herewith. Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement shall be construed as a release or other discharge of the Borrower or any Guarantor under the Existing Credit Agreement (including any Security Document) from any of its obligations and liabilities as a “Borrower,” or a “Guarantor” thereunder. The Borrower and Parent hereby (i) confirm and agree that each Loan Document to which it is a party is, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects except that on and after the Closing Date of this Agreement all references in any such Loan Document to “the Credit Agreement”, “thereto”, “thereof”, “thereunder” or words of like import referring to the Existing Credit Agreement shall mean the Existing Credit Agreement as amended and restated by this Agreement; and (ii) confirms and agrees that to the extent that any such Loan Document purports to assign or pledge to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or to grant to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties a security interest in or lien on, any collateral as security for the Existing Obligations of the Borrower or the Guarantors from time to time existing in respect of the Existing Credit Agreement and the Loan Documents, such pledge, assignment and/or grant of the security interest or lien is hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.
