Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during the Revolving Commitment Period, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Revolving Loans hereunder.

(b) Term Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including Section 2.13), on the Effective Date, each Lender severally, but not jointly, agrees to make the Term Loan to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount up to, but not exceeding, the amount of such Lender's Term Loan Commitment as of the Effective Date to be disbursed to the Borrower in Dollars in a single advance on the Effective Date. The Term Loan may consist of Base Rate Loans, LIBOR Rate Loans, or a combination thereof, as the Borrower may request. Amounts repaid on the Term Loan may not be reborrowed. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent notice pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing of the borrowing of the Term Loan under this clause (b) no later than, (i) 11:00 a.m. in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans, on the date three (3) Business Days prior to the anticipated Effective Date and (ii) in the case of Base Rate Loans, on the date one (1) Business Day prior to the anticipated Effective Date.

Section 2.2 Swingline Loans.

(a)Swingline Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof (including Section 2.13), during the Revolving Commitment Period, the Swingline Lender agrees to make Swingline Loans to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding up to, but not exceeding, the amount of the Swingline Commitment. If at any time the aggregate principal amount of the Swingline Loans outstanding at such time exceeds the Swingline Commitment in effect at such time, the Borrower shall immediately pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender the amount of such excess. The Swingline Lender shall not be obligated to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder.

(b)Procedure for Borrowing Swingline Loans. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender notice pursuant to a Notice of Swingline Borrowing or telephonic notice of each borrowing of a Swingline Loan. Each Notice of Swingline Borrowing shall be delivered to the Swingline Lender no later than 11:00 a.m. on the proposed date of such borrowing. Any such telephonic notice shall include all information to be specified in a written Notice of Swingline Borrowing and shall be promptly confirmed in writing by the Borrower pursuant to a Notice of Swingline Borrowing sent to the Swingline Lender by telecopy on the same day of the giving of such telephonic notice. On the date of the requested Swingline Loan and subject to satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Article V for such borrowing, the Swingline Lender will make the proceeds of such Swingline Loan available to the Borrower in Dollars, in immediately available funds, at the account specified by the Borrower in the Notice of Swingline Borrowing not later than 2:00 p.m. on such date.

(c)Interest. Swingline Loans shall bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans. Except as provided in the last sentence of Section 2.2(e), interest payable on Swingline Loans is solely for the account of the Swingline Lender. All accrued and unpaid interest on Swingline Loans shall be payable on the dates and in the manner provided in Section 2.4 with respect to interest on Base Rate Loans (except as the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may otherwise agree in writing in connection with any particular Swingline Loan).

(d)Swingline Loan Amounts, Etc. Each Swingline Loan shall be in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 or such other minimum amounts agreed to by the Swingline Lender and the Borrower. Any voluntary prepayment of a Swingline Loan must be in integral multiples of $100,000 or the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans (or such other minimum amounts upon which the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may agree) and in connection with any such prepayment, the Borrower must give the Swingline Lender prior written notice thereof no later than 10:00 a.m. on the date of such prepayment. The Swingline Loans shall, in addition to this Agreement, be evidenced by the Swingline Note.

(e)Repayment and Participations of Swingline Loans. (i) The Borrower agrees to repay each Swingline Loan on demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Swingline Loans on the Termination Date (or such earlier date as the Swingline Lender and the Borrower may agree in writing). In lieu of demanding repayment of any outstanding Swingline Loan from the Borrower in respect of which the Administrative Agent has not either (x) received a Notice of Borrowing indicating that such Swingline Loan is to be repaid with the proceeds thereof within five (5) Business Days of the date such Swingline Loan was made, or (y) received notice from the Borrower that it intends to repay such Swingline Loan within five (5) Business Days of the date such Swingline Loan was made and, in the case of this clause (y) only, such Swingline Loan is not repaid by 10:00 a.m. on such date, the Swingline Lender may, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swingline Lender to act on their behalf), request a borrowing of Revolving Loans (which shall be Base Rate Loans) from the Lenders in an amount equal to the principal balance of such Swingline Loan. The limitations of Section 3.5(a) shall not apply to any borrowing

of Base Rate Loans made pursuant to this subsection. The Swingline Lender shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of any such borrowing of Base Rate Loans not later than 11:00 a.m. on the proposed date of such borrowing, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Lenders of any such borrowing of Base Rate Loans. No later than 1:00 p.m. on such date, each Lender will make available to the Administrative Agent at its Principal Office, for the account of Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the proceeds of the Base Rate Loan to be made by such Lender. The Administrative Agent shall pay the proceeds of such Base Rate Loans to the Swingline Lender, which shall apply such proceeds to repay such Swingline Loan.

(ii) Immediately upon the making of a Swingline Loan, each Lender will be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided participation interest in the Swingline Loan in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage based on its Revolving Commitment of such Swingline Loan. If the Lenders are prohibited from making Loans required to be made under this subsection for any reason, including without limitation, the occurrence of any of the Events of Default described in Sections 10.1(g) or 10.1(h), each Lender shall fund its participation interest (regardless of whether the conditions precedent thereto set forth in Section 5.2 are then satisfied, whether or not the Borrower has submitted a Notice of Borrowing and whether or not the Revolving Commitments are then in effect, any Event of Default exists or all the Loans have been accelerated) by paying the proceeds thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in Dollars and in immediately available funds. If such amount is not in fact made available to the Swingline Lender by any Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon for each day from the date of demand thereof, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Swingline Lender's demand therefor, and until such time as such Lender makes the required payment, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the amount of such unpaid participation obligation for all purposes of the Loan Documents (other than those provisions requiring the other Lenders to purchase a participation therein). Further, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Revolving Loans, and any other amounts due to it hereunder, to the Swingline Lender to fund Swingline Loans in the amount of the participation in Swingline Loans that such Lender failed to purchase pursuant to this Section until such amount has been purchased (as a result of such assignment or otherwise). Each Lender acknowledges that its obligation to purchase such a participation in a Swingline Loan shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) any claim of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender or any other Person may have or claim against the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any other Person whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuation of a Default (including without limitation, any of the Defaults described in Sections 10.1(g) or 10.1(h)) or the termination of any Lender's Revolving Commitment, (iii) the existence (or alleged existence) of an event or condition which has had or could have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) any breach of any Loan Document by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Borrower or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. Upon the receipt by Swingline Lender of any payment in respect of any Swingline Loan, Swingline Lender shall promptly pay to each Lender that has acquired and funded a participation therein under this Section 2.2(e) such Lender's Commitment Percentage based on its Revolving Commitment of such payment; provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swingline Lender is required to be returned, such Lender will return to the Swingline Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Swingline Lender to it.

Section 2.3 Letters of Credit.

(a)Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Section 2.13), the Issuing Lender, on behalf of the Lenders, agrees to issue for the account of the Borrower during the period from and including the Effective Date to, but excluding, the date thirty (30) days prior to the Termination Date one or more Letters of Credit up to a maximum aggregate Stated Amount that will not result in the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Exposure exceeding the Letter of Credit Commitment Amount.

(b)Terms of Letters of Credit. At the time of issuance, the amount, form, terms and conditions of each Letter of Credit, and of any drafts or acceptances thereunder, shall be subject to approval by the Issuing Lender

and the Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event may (i) the amount of any Letter of Credit be less than $300,000, or (ii) the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend beyond the date that is (A) one (1) year from the issuance date of such Letter of Credit (other than evergreen letters of credit), or (B) more than one (1) year beyond the Termination Date.

(c)Requests for Issuance of Letters of Credit. The Borrower shall give the Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) at least five (5) Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance of a Letter of Credit, such notice to describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions or obligations proposed to be supported by such Letter of Credit, and in any event shall set forth with respect to such Letter of Credit (i) the proposed initial Stated Amount, (ii) the beneficiary or beneficiaries, and (iii) the proposed expiration date. The Borrower shall also execute and deliver such customary letter of credit application forms as requested from time to time by the Issuing Lender. Provided the Borrower has given the notice prescribed by the first sentence of this subsection and subject to Section 2.13 and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article V, and Issuing Lender has not received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article V shall not be satisfied, the Issuing Lender shall issue the requested Letter of Credit on the requested date of issuance for the benefit of the stipulated beneficiary. The Issuing Lender shall deliver to the Borrower a copy of each issued Letter of Credit within a reasonable time after the date of issuance thereof. To the extent any term of a Letter of Credit Document is inconsistent with a term of any Loan Document, the term of such Loan Document shall control.

(d)Reimbursement Obligations. Upon receipt by the Issuing Lender from the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of the amount to be paid by the Issuing Lender as a result of such demand and the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Lender to such beneficiary in respect of such demand; provided, however, the Issuing Lender's failure to give, or delay in giving, such notice shall not discharge the Borrower in any respect from the applicable Reimbursement Obligation. The Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay and reimburse the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender for the amount of each demand for payment under such Letter of Credit on or prior to the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Lender to the beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind. Upon receipt by the Issuing Lender of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation, the Issuing Lender shall promptly pay to each Lender that has acquired and funded a participation therein under the second sentence of Section 2.3(i) such Lender's Commitment Percentage based on its Revolving Commitment of such payment; provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Issuing Lender is required to be returned, such Lender will return to the Issuing Lender any portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it.

(e)Manner of Reimbursement. Upon its receipt of a notice referred to in Section 2.3(d), the Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender whether or not the Borrower intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of the related demand for payment. If the Borrower fails to so advise the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender, or if the Borrower fails to reimburse the Issuing Lender for a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit by the date of such payment, then (i) if the applicable conditions contained in Article V would permit the making of Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing of Revolving Loans (which shall be Base Rate Loans which shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin) in an amount equal to the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation and the Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. and (ii) if such conditions would not permit the making of Revolving Loans, the provisions of Section 2.3(j) shall apply. The limitations of Section 3.5(a) shall not apply to any borrowing of Base Rate Loans under this subsection.

(f)Effect of Letters of Credit on Revolving Commitments. Upon the issuance by the Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been terminated, the Revolving Commitment of each Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the product of (i) such Lender's Commitment Percentage based on its Revolving Commitment and (ii) the sum of (A) the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit plus (B) any related Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding.

(g)Issuing Lender's Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of Reimbursement Obligation. In examining documents presented in connection with drawings under Letters of Credit and making payments under such Letters of Credit against such documents, the Issuing Lender shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in connection with examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in which it has not sold participations and making payments under such letters of credit. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit; provided, however, this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower from pursuing such remedies as it may have against the beneficiaries or transferees under law or any other agreement. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender nor any of the Lenders shall be responsible for (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under any Letter of Credit even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to strictly comply with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telex, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or the Lenders. None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Administrative Agent's, the Issuing Lender's or any Lender's rights or powers hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not create against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender any liability to the Borrower or any Lender. In this connection, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any drawing made under any Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation, the following circumstances: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Document or any term or provisions therein; (B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents; (C) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender, any beneficiary or transferee of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or in the Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of contract or dispute between the Borrower, any beneficiary or transferee of a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender, any Lender or any other Person; (E) any draft, certificate, demand, statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein or made in connection therewith being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary or transferee of a Letter of Credit or any other Person of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (G) payment by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft, certificate, demand, statement or other document which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (H) any improper use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any improper acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit in connection therewith; (I) any irregularity in the transaction with respect to which any Letter of Credit is issued, including any fraud by the beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit; (J) the legality, validity, form, regularity or enforceability of the Letter of Credit; (K) the failure of any payment by Issuing Lender to conform to the terms of a Letter of Credit (if, in Issuing Lender's good faith judgment,

such payment is determined to be appropriate); (L) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents; (M) the occurrence of any Default; and (N) any other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of the Borrower's Reimbursement Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section or Section 12.9, but not in limitation of the Borrower's unconditional obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any drawing made under a Letter of Credit as provided in this Section, the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender in respect of any liability incurred by the Issuing Lender arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit (including, without limitation, a failure of Issuing Lender to comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit) as actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Except as otherwise provided in this Section, nothing in this Section shall affect any rights the Borrower may have with respect to the Issuing Lender's gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to any Letter of Credit.

(h)Amendments, Etc. The issuance by the Issuing Lender of any extension, amendment, supplement or other modification to any Letter of Credit shall be subject to the same conditions applicable under this Agreement to the issuance of new Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, that the request therefor be made through the Issuing Lender), and no such extension, amendment, supplement or other modification shall be issued unless either (i) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such extended, amended, supplemented or modified form or (ii) the Requisite Lenders shall have consented thereto. In connection with any such extension, amendment, supplement or other modification, the Borrower shall pay the Fees, if any, payable under Section 3.6(b).

(i)Lenders' Participation in Letters of Credit. Immediately upon the issuance by the Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender's Commitment Percentage based on its Revolving Commitment of the liability of the Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit and each Lender thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to the Issuing Lender to pay and discharge when due, such Lender's Commitment Percentage based on its Revolving Commitment of the Issuing Lender's liability under such Letter of Credit. In addition, upon the making of each payment by a Lender to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender in respect of any Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.3(j), such Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or such Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to the Issuing Lender by the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Lender's Commitment Percentage based on its Revolving Commitment in any interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation (other than the Fees payable to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(b)(i) and (b)(iii)).

(j)Payment Obligation of Lenders. Each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender on demand in immediately available funds in Dollars the amount of such Lender's Commitment Percentage based on its Revolving Commitment of each drawing paid by the Issuing Lender under each Letter of Credit to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.3(d). Each such Lender's obligation to make such payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender under this subsection, and the Issuing Lender's right to receive the same, shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) the failure of any other Lender to make its payment under this subsection, (ii) the financial condition of the Borrower or any other Obligor, (iii) the existence of any Default, including any Default described in Section 10.1(g) or 10.1(h), or (iv) the termination of the Commitments. Each such payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever. If the Issuing Lender shall make any disbursement on account of a drawing under a Letter of Credit (an “LC Disbursement”), then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made (and without relieving the Borrower of its obligation to do so), the unpaid amount thereof

shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the Post-Default Rate.

(k)Information to Lenders. Within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter, the Issuing Lender shall deliver to the Lenders an accounting of each Letter of Credit then outstanding. Upon the request of any Lender from time to time, the Issuing Lender shall deliver to such Lender information reasonably requested by such Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding. Other than as set forth in this subsection, the Issuing Lender shall have no duty to notify the Lenders regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued hereunder. The failure of the Issuing Lender to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Lender from its obligations under Section 2.3(j).

(l)Replacement of the Issuing Lender. The Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

Section 2.4 Rates and Payment of Interest on Loans.

(a)Rates. The Borrower promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the period from and including the date of the making of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full, at the following per annum rates:

(i)during such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at the Alternate Base Rate (as in effect from time to time) plus the Applicable Margin; and

(ii)during such periods as such Loan is a LIBOR Rate Loan, at the LIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Loan plus the Applicable Margin.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender interest at the Post-Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of any Loan made by such Lender, on all outstanding Reimbursement Obligations and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes held by such Lender to or for the account of such Lender (including without limitation, accrued but unpaid interest to the extent permitted under Applicable Law).

(b)Payment of Interest. Accrued interest on Base Rate Loans shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each calendar month. Accrued interest on LIBOR Rate Loans shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each Interest Period and, in the case of a LIBOR Rate Loan with an Interest Period longer than three (3) months, on each day prior to the last day of such Interest Period that occurs at intervals of three months' duration after the first day of such Interest Period. Accrued Interest on (i) all Revolving Loans shall also be payable in arrears upon termination of the Revolving Commitments and (ii) the Term Loan shall also be payable in arrears on the Maturity Date. In addition, upon any Conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period applicable to such Loan, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such Conversion. Interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand. Promptly after the determination of any interest rate provided for herein or any change therein, the Administrative Agent shall give

notice thereof to the Lenders to which such interest is payable and to the Borrower. All determinations by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders and the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Section 2.5 Number of Interest Periods.

There may be no more than six (6) different Interest Periods for LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding at the same time.

Section 2.6 Termination Date; Maturity Date; Extension.

(a)Termination Date. Unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Aggregate Revolving Commitment shall terminate on the Termination Date, and the Borrower shall, on the Termination Date, (i) repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Revolving Loans, the Swingline Loans, and the Reimbursement Obligations, (ii) pay an amount of money equal to the Stated Amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit for deposit into the Collateral Account pursuant to Section 2.12 to the extent such payment has not been previously made, and (iii) pay all other amounts then outstanding under this Agreement, other than the Term Loan and any accrued interest on the Term Loan.

(b)Maturity Date. The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Term Loan, together with all other amounts then outstanding under this Agreement, on the Maturity Date.

(c)Extended Termination Date Option. Subject to the provisions of this clause (c), the Borrower may extend the Termination Date two (2) times for one (1) year each time by delivery of a written notice of such extension (the “Extension Notice”) to the Administrative Agent requesting such extension not more than ninety (90) days and not less than forty-five (45) days prior to the then effective Termination Date. If the Termination Date is extended, all of the other terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including interest payment dates) shall remain in full force and effect and unmodified, except as expressly provided for herein. Each extension of the Termination Date is subject to the satisfaction of each of the following additional conditions:

(i)no Default shall exist at the time of such extension;

(ii)no Material Adverse Effect has occurred in the financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, or any other Obligor and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, since the Agreement Date;

(iii)compliance with each covenant contained in Articles VII, VIII and IX hereof, including but not limited to the financial covenants contained in Section 9.1 hereof for the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower; and

(iv)payment in immediately available funds by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (for the pro rata benefit of the Lenders based on their respective Commitment Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments) on or before each extension of the Termination Date of an extension fee equal to one-fourth of one percent (.25%) of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment (the “Extension Fee”).

Such extension shall be effective as of the date of delivery of the Extension Notice and the Extension Fee, provided that upon delivery of the Extension Notice, Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and certified that the conditions in preceding clauses (i) through (iii) have been satisfied.

Section 2.7 Prepayments.

(a)Optional. Subject to Section 3.5 and Section 4.4, the Borrower may prepay any Loan at any time without premium or penalty. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a LIBOR Rate Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., Atlanta, Georgia time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of a Base Rate Loan, not later than 11:00 a.m., Atlanta, Georgia time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iii) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, Atlanta, Georgia time, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.11, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.11. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Loan or Term Loan, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Loan or the Term Loan shall be in accordance with Section 3.5. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.4.

(b)Mandatory. If at any time the provisions of Section 2.13 are not met, the Borrower shall, (i) within three (3) Business Days to comply with clause (a) of Section 2.13, or (ii) within one (1) Business Day to comply with clause (b), (c) or (d) of Section 2.13, pay to the Administrative Agent for the accounts of the Lenders the amount required to comply with such section. Such payment shall be applied as necessary by the Administrative Agent to bring the Borrower in compliance with the provisions of Section 2.13. To the extent such payment is not sufficient to bring the Borrower into full compliance with Section 2.13, the Administrative Agent shall apply such funds as follows: FIRST, to pay principal outstanding on the Swingline Loans; SECOND, to pay principal outstanding on the Loans and any outstanding Reimbursement Obligations pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2; and THIRD, if any Letters of Credit are outstanding at such time, to pay Reimbursement Obligations that may arise with respect to such Letters of Credit by depositing funds into the Collateral Account for application to such Reimbursement Obligations or returned to the Borrower in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.12. If the Borrower is required to pay any outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans by reason of this Section prior to the end of the applicable Interest Period, the Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 4.4.

Section 2.8 Continuation.

So long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may on any Business Day, with respect to any Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan, elect to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loan or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Rate Loan by selecting a new Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Loan. Each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period. Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made by the Borrower's giving to the Administrative Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than 11:00 a.m. on the third (3^rd) Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation. Such notice by the Borrower of a Continuation shall be by telephone or telecopy, confirmed immediately in writing if by telephone, in the form of a Notice of Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed date of such Continuation, (b) the LIBOR Rate Loans and portions thereof subject to such Continuation and (c) the duration of the selected Interest Period, all of which shall be specified in such manner as is necessary to comply with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder. Each Notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall notify each applicable Lender by telecopy, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed Continuation. If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any such LIBOR Rate Loan in accordance with this Section, or if a Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, Convert into (or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan, continue as) a Base Rate Loan notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 2.9 or the Borrower's failure to comply with any of the terms of such Section.

Section 2.9 Conversion.

So long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Borrower may on any Business Day, upon the Borrower's giving of a Notice of Conversion to the Administrative Agent, Convert all or a portion of any Loan of one Type into a Loan of another Type. Any Conversion of a Loan that is a LIBOR Rate Loan into a Base Rate Loan shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Rate Loan and, upon Conversion of a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower shall pay accrued interest to the date of Conversion on the principal amount so Converted. Each such Notice of Conversion shall be given not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into Base Rate Loans and on the third (3rd ) Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into LIBOR Rate Loans. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Administrative Agent shall notify each applicable Lender by telecopy, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed Conversion. Subject to the restrictions specified above, each Notice of Conversion shall be by telephone (confirmed immediately in writing) or telecopy in the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying (a) the requested date of such Conversion, (b) the Type of Loan to be Converted, (c) the portion of such Type of Loan to be Converted, (d) the Type of Loan such Loan is to be Converted into and (e) if such Conversion is into a LIBOR Rate Loan, the requested duration of the Interest Period of such Loan. Each Notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.

Section 2.10 Notes.

(a)Revolving Note. The Revolving Loans made by each Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit J (each a “Revolving Note”), payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Revolving Commitment as originally in effect or as subsequently increased pursuant to Section 2.11(b) and otherwise duly completed.

(b)Term Note. The Term Loan made by each Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit K (each a “Term Note”), payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Term Loan as originally in effect or as subsequently increased pursuant to Section 2.11(b) and otherwise duly completed.

(c)Swingline Note. The Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by the promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit I (the “Swingline Note”), payable to the order of the Swingline Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of the Swingline Commitment as originally in effect or as subsequently increased pursuant to the definition thereof and otherwise duly completed.

(d)Records. The date, amount, interest rate, Type and duration of Interest Periods (if applicable) of each Loan made by each Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on its books and such entries shall be binding on the Borrower absent manifest error.

(e)Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Notes. Upon receipt by the Borrower of (i) written notice from a Lender that a Note of such Lender has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, and (ii) (A) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, an unsecured agreement of indemnity from such Lender in form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, or (B) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Borrower shall at its own expense execute and deliver to such Lender a new Note dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.

Section 2.11 Termination, Reduction or Increase of the Revolving Commitments; Increase in the Term Loan.

(a)Terminate or Reduce Revolving Commitment. The Borrower shall have the right to terminate or reduce the unused amount of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium upon not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent of

each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount of any such reduction (in accordance with Section 3.5) and shall be irrevocable once given and effective only upon receipt by the Administrative Agent; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. The Administrative Agent will promptly transmit such notice to each Lender. The Revolving Commitments may not be reduced below $50,000,000 in the aggregate unless the Borrower terminates the Revolving Commitments in their entirety, and, once terminated or reduced, the Revolving Commitments may not be increased or reinstated.

(b)Increase in Revolving Commitments and the Term Loan. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, upon prior written notice by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, increase the Revolving Commitments (but not the Letter of Credit Sublimit) and/or the Term Loan subject to the following:

(i) the sum of the (A) aggregate principal amount of all increases in the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) plus (B) the aggregate principal amount of all increases to the Term Loan made pursuant to this Section 2.11(b) shall not exceed ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS ($150,000,000);

(ii) after any such increase, the sum of the (A) Aggregate Revolving Commitments plus (B) the Term Loan Exposure shall not to exceed FOUR HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS ($450,000,000);

(iii) any increase in Aggregate Revolving Commitments or the Term Loan shall be provided by one or more existing Lenders or other Eligible Assignee selected by the Borrower and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank;

(iv) any such increase shall be in a minimum principal amount of $25,000,000 and in integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof;

(v) the Borrower and each new Lender shall have executed and delivered a commitment and acceptance (the “Commitment and Acceptance”) substantially in the form of Exhibit M hereto and the Administrative Agent shall have accepted and executed the same (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld);

(vi) the Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Note or Notes payable to the order of each new Lender or increasing Lender, as applicable, each such Note to be in the amount of such Lender's new or increased Revolving Commitment or new or increased Term Loan, as applicable;

(vii) the Guarantors shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a written instrument confirming their consent to the new and/or increased Revolving Commitments or increased Term Loan (as applicable) and that their Guaranty continues in full force and effect;

(viii) the Borrower and each new and/or increasing Lender shall otherwise have executed and delivered opinions, certificates, resolutions and such other instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably requested in connection with such new or increased Revolving Commitment or increased Term Loan (as applicable);

(ix) the Borrower shall pay (1) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each new and/or increasing Lender, as applicable, an upfront fee related to the increased Revolving Commitments and/or increased Term Loan, as applicable, and (2) to the Administrative Agent or its affiliate an arrangement fee related to the increased Aggregate Revolving Commitments and/or Term Loan Exposure, as applicable, and such fees shall be (A) the same as the upfront and arrangement fees paid by the Borrower pursuant to that certain fee letter agreement dated August 8, 2012 executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Co-Syndication Agents and the Arrangers in connection with the arrangement and syndication of the term loan

and revolving facilities evidenced by this Agreement and (B) payable on the Increase Date (as hereinafter defined);

(x) no Default shall exist before or immediately after giving effect to such increase and all representations and warranties shall be true in all material respects on the Increase Date except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly related solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and accurate on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances specifically and expressly permitted hereunder; and

(xi) no existing Lender shall be under any obligation to increase its Revolving Commitment or increase its Term Loan and any such decision whether to increase its Revolving Commitment or its Term Loan shall be in such Lender's sole and absolute discretion.

The form and substance of the documents required under clauses (v) through (viii) above shall be fully acceptable to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion. The Administrative Agent shall provide written notice to the Lenders following any such increase in the Aggregate Revolving Commitment or the Term Loan and shall furnish to the Lenders, upon request, copies of the Commitment and Acceptance.

(c) Adjustments for Facility Increases. On the effective date of any increase in the Aggregate Revolving Commitment or the Term Loan pursuant to the provisions hereof (the “Increase Date”), which Increase Date shall be mutually agreed upon by the Borrower, each new and/or increasing Lender and the Administrative Agent, each such Lender shall make a payment to the Administrative Agent in an amount sufficient, upon the application of such payments by all such Lenders to the reduction of the outstanding Base Rate Loans held by all Lenders, to cause the principal amount outstanding under such Base Rate Loans made by all Lenders (including any new and/or increasing Lender) to be in the proportion of their respective Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Commitments or Term Loan Exposure, as applicable, as of such Increase Date. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each such Lender to fund to the Administrative Agent the payment required to be made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence for application to the reduction of the outstanding Base Rate Loans held by each Lender, and each such payment shall constitute a Base Rate Loan hereunder. Such new and/or increasing Lender, as applicable, shall not participate in any LIBOR Rate Loans that are outstanding on the Increase Date, but, if the Borrower shall, at any time on or after such Increase Date, convert or continue any LIBOR Rate Loans outstanding on such Increase Date, then, notwithstanding the prohibition in Section 2.1(b) against reborrowing of amounts repaid on the Term Loan (to the extent such LIBOR Rate Loan is the Term Loan), the Borrower shall be deemed to repay such LIBOR Rate Loans on the date of the conversion or continuation thereof and then to re-borrow as a LIBOR Rate Loan a like amount on such date (regardless of whether the conditions precedent to borrowing have been satisfied) so that each such Lender shall make a LIBOR Rate Loan on such date, in an amount equal to its pro rata share of such LIBOR Rate Loans based on its Commitment Percentage of Revolving Loans and/or the Term Loan, as applicable. Each new and/or increasing Lender shall also advance its Commitment Percentage of all Revolving Loans or the Term Loan, as applicable, made on or after such Increase Date and shall otherwise have all of the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder on and after such Increase Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default prior to the date on which a new or increasing Lender is holding Revolving Loans equal to its Commitment Percentage, such Lender shall, upon notice from the Administrative Agent, on or after the date on which the Obligations are accelerated or become due following such Event of Default, pay to the Administrative Agent (for the account of the other Lenders, to which the Administrative Agent shall pay their pro rata shares upon receipt) a sum equal to such Lender's Commitment Percentage of each Revolving Loan then outstanding with respect to which such Lender does not then hold its Commitment Percentage thereof.

(d) On the Increase Date and the making of the Loans by a new or increasing Lender in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.11(c), any such Lender providing a new or increased Revolving Commitment shall also be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received, without recourse or warranty, from Lenders party to this Agreement immediately prior to the Increase Date, an undivided interest and participation in any Letter of Credit then outstanding, ratably, such that all Lenders (including such Lender) hold participation

interests in each such Letter of Credit in proportion to their respective Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Commitments (taking into account the increase in the Aggregate Revolving Commitment that is effective on such Increase Date).

Section 2.12 Expiration Date of Letters of Credit Past Termination Date.

If on any date within forty-five (45) days prior to the Termination Date there are any Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder having an expiration date beyond the Termination Date, without limiting the terms of Section 2.3(b), the Borrower shall, on such date, pay to the Administrative Agent an amount of money equal to the Stated Amount of such Letter(s) of Credit for deposit into the Collateral Account. If a drawing pursuant to any such Letter of Credit occurs on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower authorizes the Issuing Lender to notify the Administrative Agent, and authorize the Administrative Agent to pay to the Issuing Lender monies deposited in the Collateral Account for Issuing Lender to make payment to the beneficiary with respect to such drawing or the payee with respect to such presentment. If no drawing occurs on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall withdraw the monies deposited in the Collateral Account with respect to such outstanding Letter of Credit on or before the date ten (10) Business Days after the expiration date of such Letter of Credit and apply such funds to the Obligations, if any, then due and payable or pay such funds to the Borrower in the order prescribed by Section 10.3. No amount drawn under a Letter of Credit shall be subject to reinstatement.

Section 2.13 Amount Limitations.

Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document at no time shall:

(a)the Aggregate Outstanding Credit Exposure exceed the Borrowing Base Availability;

(b)the Outstanding Credit Exposure (less the Term Loan Exposure) of any Lender exceed the Revolving Commitment of such Lender;

(c)the Letter of Credit Exposure exceed the Letter of Credit Commitment Amount; and

(d)the Swingline Exposure exceed the Swingline Commitment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, failure to meet the requirements of this Section 2.13 due to a change in the result of the calculations set forth in clauses (ii) and (iii) of the definition of Borrowing Base Availability shall not be an Event of Default if Borrower makes a mandatory prepayment in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.7(b).

Section 2.14 Advances by the Administrative Agent.

Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the specified date of borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent the Loan to be made by such Lender on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender will make the proceeds of such Loan available to the Administrative Agent on the date of the requested borrowing and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower the amount of such Loan to be provided by such Lender and such Lender shall be liable to the Administrative Agent for the amount of such advance. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount upon the Administrative Agent's demand, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall promptly pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from the Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent at a per annum rate equal to (i) from the Borrower at the applicable rate for such Loan or (ii) from a Lender at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. Subject to the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 12.14), the Borrower does not waive any claim that it may have against a Defaulting Lender.

ARTICLE III. PAYMENTS, FEES AND OTHER GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 3.1 Payments.

Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, set-off or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent at its Principal Office, not later than 12:00 p.m. on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day). Subject to Sections 3.2 and 3.3, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) debit the amount of any such payment which is not made by such time from any special or general deposit account of Borrower with the Administrative Agent, other than accounts as to which the Administrative Agent has expressly waived offset rights in writing. The Borrower shall, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any Note, specify to the Administrative Agent the amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder to which such payment is to be applied. Each payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender under this Agreement or any Note shall be paid to such Lender at the applicable Lending Office of such Lender no later than one (1) Business Day after receipt. If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document would otherwise fall on a day which is not a Business Day such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and interest shall be payable for the period of such extension. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and distributed by the Administrative Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the Administrative Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall be determined by such court.

Section 3.2 Pro Rata Treatment.

(a)Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each borrowing from the Lenders under Section 2.1(a) shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of the Fees under Section 3.6(a) and Section 3.6(b)(ii) shall be made for the account of the Lenders, and each termination or reduction of the amount of the Revolving Commitments under Section 2.11 shall be applied to the respective Revolving Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Commitments; (ii) the borrowing from the Lenders under Section 2.1(b) shall be made from the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their respective Term Loan Commitments; (iii) each payment or prepayment of principal of the Revolving Loans or the Term Loan by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Revolving Loans or the Term Loan, as applicable, held by them, provided that if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Revolving Loans or the Term Loan the outstanding principal amount of which shall not be held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments or Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, in effect at the time such Loans were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Revolving Loans or the Term Loan, as applicable, in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans or the Term Loan, as applicable, being held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment or Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, in effect at the time such Loans were made; (iii) each payment of interest on the Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amount of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders; (iv) the making, Conversion and Continuation of Loans of a particular Type (other than Conversions provided for by Section 4.6) shall be made pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Revolving Commitments (in the case of making of Revolving Loans) or their respective Revolving Loans or portion of the Term Loan, as applicable (in the case of Conversions and Continuations of Revolving Loans or the Term Loan, as applicable) and the then current Interest Period for each Lender's portion of each Revolving Loan or the Term Loan, as applicable, of such Type shall be coterminous; (v) the Lenders' participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Letters of Credit under Section 2.3, shall be pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments; and (vi) the Lenders' participation in, and payment obligations in respect of, Swingline Loans under Section 2.2, shall be pro rata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments. All payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts in respect of the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender only (except to

the extent any Lender shall have acquired a participating interest in any such Swingline Loan pursuant to Section 2.2(e)).

(b)If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.1(d), Section 2.2(e), Section 2.3(e), Section 2.3(i), Section 2.3(j), Section 2.14 or Section 11.7, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer treated as a Defaulting Lender under Section 3.11(e) and has made the adjustments required by Section 3.11(e), the Administrative Agent shall (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under such Sections; in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion.

Section 3.3 Sharing of Payments, Etc.

If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan made by it to the Borrower under this Agreement, or shall obtain payment on any other Obligation owing by the Borrower or any other Obligor through the exercise of any right of set-off, banker's lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or other payments made by the Borrower to a Lender not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such payment should be distributed to some or all of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2 or Section 10.3, as applicable, such Lender shall promptly purchase from the other applicable Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans made by such other Lenders or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the applicable Lenders shall share the benefit of such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such benefit) pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2 or Section 10.3. To such end, all the applicable Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation (or direct interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders may exercise all rights of set-off, banker's lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans in the amount of such participation. Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower.

Section 3.4 Several Obligations.

No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender hereunder, and the failure of any Lender to make a Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by it hereunder shall not relieve the obligation of any other Lender to make any Loan or to perform any other obligation to be made or performed by such other Lender.

For purposes of determining the unused portion of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment, the Aggregate Revolving Commitment shall be deemed used to the extent of the sum of the Letter of Credit Exposure and Revolving Loan Exposure. For purposes of determining the unused portion of a Lender's Revolving Commitment hereunder, such Lender's Revolving Commitment shall be deemed used to the extent of such Lender's Commitment Percentage based on its Revolving Commitment of the sum of the Letters of Credit Exposure and Revolving Loan Exposure.

(b)Letter of Credit Fees.

(i)The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Lender only, and not the account of any other Lender, a one-time fee in respect of each Letter of Credit at the rate equal to the greater of (x) $1,500 and (y) one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) of the Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit. Such fee shall be non-refundable and payable upon issuance of such Letter of Credit.

(ii)The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender with Letter of Credit Exposure a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the then current Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans multiplied by the daily average Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance or extension of such Letter of Credit (A) to and including the date such Letter of Credit expires or is terminated or (B) to but excluding the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full. Such fees shall be nonrefundable and payable in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year, and on the Termination Date. During the continuance of an Event of Default, the Letter of Credit fee payable pursuant to this Section 3.6(b)(ii) shall be payable at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (x) the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans plus (y) two percent (2.0%), and such fees shall be due and payable upon demand.

(iii)The Borrower shall pay directly to the Issuing Lender from time to time within five (5) Business Days after demand all charges, costs and expenses in the amounts customarily charged by the Issuing Lender from time to time in like circumstances with respect to the issuance of each Letter of Credit, drawings, amendments and other transactions relating thereto.

(c)Administrative and Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the reasonable administrative and other fees of the Administrative Agent as may be agreed to in writing from time to time.

Section 3.7 Computations.

Unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, any accrued interest on any Loan, any Fees or any other Obligations due hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed.

Section 3.8 Usury.

In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by Applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by the Borrower or received by any Lender, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless the Borrower shall notify the respective Lender in writing that the Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be lawfully paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law.

Section 3.9 Agreement Regarding Interest and Charges.

The parties hereto hereby agree and stipulate that the only charge imposed upon the Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement is and shall be the interest specifically described in Section 2.2(c), Section 2.3 and Section 2.4. The parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees, arrangement fees, amendment fees, up-front fees, commitment fees, facility fees, unused fee, closing fees, letter of credit fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or “breakage” charges, increased cost charges, attorneys' fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or any other similar amounts are charges made to compensate the Administrative Agent or any such Lender for underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or incurred, and to be performed or incurred, by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money. The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Lenders have imposed no minimum borrowing requirements, reserve or escrow balances or compensating balances related in any way to the Obligations. Any use by the Borrower of certificates of deposit issued by any Lender or other accounts maintained with any Lender has been and shall be voluntary on the part of the Borrower. All charges other than charges for the use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due.

Section 3.10 Statements of Account.

The Administrative Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans, Letters of Credit, accrued interest and Fees, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such account rendered by the Administrative Agent shall be deemed conclusive upon the Borrower absent manifest error. The failure of the Administrative Agent to deliver such a statement of accounts shall not relieve or discharge the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 3.11 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(a)fees shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(a) until such Defaulting Lender ceases to be a Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;

(b)neither the Commitments nor the Outstanding Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 12.6), provided that any waiver, amendment or modification that increases the Commitments of a Defaulting Lender, forgives all or any portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or interest thereon owing to a Defaulting Lender, reduces the Applicable Margin or the underlying interest rate options owing to a Defaulting Lender or extends the Termination Date or the Maturity Date with respect to the Loans held by such Defaulting Lender shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

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

(i)all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages based on their Revolving Commitments but only to the extent (x) the sum of (1) the Outstanding Credit Exposure (less any Term Loan Exposure) for all non-Defaulting Lenders, plus (2) such Defaulting Lender's Swingline Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure, does not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders, (y) the Outstanding Credit Exposure (less any Term Loan Exposure) for each non-Defaulting Lender would not exceed its Revolving Commitment, and (z) the conditions set forth in Sections 5.2(a) and (b) are satisfied at such time;

(ii)if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall (x) first, within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, within ten (10) Days following notice by the Administrative Agent, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender's Letter of Credit Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) by depositing amounts into the Collateral Account for so long as such Letter of Credit Exposure is outstanding, and such amounts shall be disbursed to pay the Reimbursement Obligations related to such Letter of Credit Exposure or returned to the Borrower in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.12;

(iii)if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender's Letter of Credit Exposure pursuant to this Section 3.11(c), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender's Letter of Credit Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender's Letter of Credit Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv)if the Letter of Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to this Section 3.11(c), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.6(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with the non-Defaulting Lenders' Commitment Percentages based on their Revolving Commitments and the fees payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.6(b) shall be reduced accordingly; or

(v)if such Defaulting Lender's Letter of Credit Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 3.11(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 3.6(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender's Letter of Credit Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until such Letter of Credit Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated.

(d)so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be one hundred percent (100%) covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in the amount of the Defaulting Lender's Letter of Credit Exposure in accordance with Section 3.11(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 3.11(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).

(e)Defaulting Lender Cure. In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender each reasonably determines that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and Letter of Credit Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender's Revolving Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans)

as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Revolving Loans in accordance with its Commitment Percentage based on its Revolving Commitment.

(f)In no event shall the provisions of this Section 3.11 result in any Lender's Outstanding Credit Exposure (less its Term Loan Exposure) exceeding its Revolving Commitment.

Section 3.12 Taxes.

(a)Taxes Generally. All payments by the Borrower of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and all other Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future excise, stamp or other taxes, fees, duties, levies, imposts, charges, deductions, withholdings or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding (i) franchise taxes, and (ii) any taxes imposed on or measured by any Lender's assets, net income, receipts or branch profits (such non-excluded items being collectively called “Taxes”). If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrower hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any Applicable Law, then the Borrower will:

(i)pay directly to the relevant Governmental Authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted;

(ii)promptly forward to the Administrative Agent an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such Governmental Authority; and

(iii)pay to the Administrative Agent for its account or the account of the applicable Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Administrative Agent or such Lender will equal the full amount that the Administrative Agent or such Lender would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required.

(b)Tax Indemnification. If the Borrower fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent, for its account or the account of the respective Lender, as the case may be, the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure. For purposes of this Section, a distribution hereunder by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to or for the account of any Lender shall be deemed a payment by the Borrower.

(c)Tax Forms. Prior to the date that any Lender or participant organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States of America becomes a party hereto, such Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (but only so long as such Lender or participant is or remains lawfully able to do so) such certificates, documents or other evidence, as required by the Internal Revenue Code or Treasury Regulations issued pursuant thereto (including Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI and W-8BEN, as applicable, or appropriate successor forms), properly completed, currently effective and duly executed by such Lender or participant indicating whether payments to it hereunder and under the Notes are (i) not subject to United States Federal backup withholding tax or (ii) not subject to United States Federal withholding tax under the Internal Revenue Code because such payment is either effectively connected with the conduct by such Lender or participant of a trade or business in the United States or totally exempt from United States Federal withholding tax by reason of the application of the provisions of a treaty to which the United States is a party or such Lender is otherwise wholly exempt; provided that nothing herein (including, without limitation, the failure or inability to provide any of such certificates, documents or other evidence) shall relieve the Borrower of its obligations under this Section 3.12. In addition, any such Lender or participant shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (but only so long as such Lender or participant is or remains lawfully able to do so) further copies of any such certificate, document or other evidence on or before the date that any such certificate, document or other evidence expires or becomes obsolete.

ARTICLE IV. YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.

Section 4.1 Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy.

(a)Additional Costs. The Borrower shall promptly pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of a Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender that it reasonably determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any LIBOR Rate Loans or its obligation to make any LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder, any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Loans or such obligation or the maintenance by such Lender of capital in respect of its Loans or its Commitment (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), resulting from any Regulatory Change that: (i) changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Loans or its Commitment (other than taxes which are excluded from the definition of Taxes pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.12(a)); or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than Regulation D of the Board or other reserve requirement to the extent utilized in the determination of the LIBOR Base Rate for such Loan) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Lender, or any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the Commitments of such Lender hereunder); or (iii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such Lender's policies with respect to capital adequacy).

(b)Lender's Suspension of LIBOR Rate Loans. Without limiting the effect of the provisions of Section 4.1(a), if, by reason of any Regulatory Change any Lender becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if such Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert any other Type of Loans into, LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder shall be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 4.6 shall apply).

(c)Additional Costs in Respect of Letters of Credit. Without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under the preceding subsections of this Section (but without duplication), if as a result of any Regulatory Change or any risk-based capital guideline or other requirement heretofore or hereafter issued by any Governmental Authority there shall be imposed, modified or deemed applicable any tax, reserve, special deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement against or with respect to or measured by reference to Letters of Credit and the result shall be to increase the cost to the Issuing Lender of issuing (or any Lender of purchasing participations in) or maintaining its obligation hereunder to issue (or purchase participations in) any Letter of Credit or reduce any amount receivable by the Issuing Lender or any Lender hereunder in respect of any Letter of Credit, then, upon demand by the Issuing Lender or such Lender, the Borrower shall pay promptly, and in any event within thirty (30) days of demand, to the Administrative Agent for its account or the account of the Issuing Lender or such Lender, as applicable, from time to time as specified by the Issuing Lender or a Lender, such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate the Issuing Lender or such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amount.

(d)Notification and Determination of Additional Costs. Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the Agreement Date entitling the Administrative Agent or such Lender to compensation under any of the preceding subsections of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided, however, the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give such notice shall not release the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section, the Administrative Agent or a Lender, as the case may be, shall not be entitled to compensation for any such amount relating to any period ending more than twelve (12) months prior to the date that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, first notifies the Borrower in writing thereof. The Administrative Agent and or such Lender agrees to furnish to the Borrower a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by the Administrative Agent or such Lender for compensation under this Section. Absent

manifest error, determinations by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of the effect of any Regulatory Change shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

Section 4.2 Suspension of LIBOR Rate Loans.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of any LIBOR Base Rate or LIBOR Rate for any Interest Period:

(a)the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period; or

(b)the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that the LIBOR Rate as determined by the Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining LIBOR Rate Loans for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to, and shall not, make additional LIBOR Rate Loans, Continue LIBOR Rate Loans or Convert Loans into LIBOR Rate Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 4.6 shall be applicable) and the Borrower shall, on the last day of each current Interest Period for each outstanding LIBOR Rate Loan, either repay such Loan or Convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

Section 4.3 Illegality.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if it becomes unlawful for any Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and such Lender's obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR Rate Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 4.6 shall be applicable).

Section 4.4 Compensation.

The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense that such Lender determines is attributable to:

(a)any payment or prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Rate Loan, or Conversion of a LIBOR Rate Loan, made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, acceleration) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or

(b)any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, the failure of any of the applicable conditions precedent specified in Article V to be satisfied) to borrow a LIBOR Rate Loan from such Lender on the date for such borrowing, or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Rate Loan or Continue a LIBOR Rate Loan on the requested date of such Conversion or Continuation.

Upon the Borrower's request, any Lender requesting compensation under this Section shall provide the Borrower with a statement setting forth the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof. Each Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods generally applied by such Lender and may include, without limitation, administrative costs as a component of such loss, cost or expense. Absent manifest error, determinations by any Lender in any such statement shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

Section 4.5 Affected Lenders.

If (a) a Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 3.12 or Section 4.1, and the Requisite Lenders are not also doing the same, (b) the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Rate Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1(b) or Section 4.3 but the obligation of the Requisite Lenders shall not have been suspended under such Sections, or (c) a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, so long as there does not then exist any Default, the Borrower, within ninety (90) days of such request for compensation or suspension, as applicable, may either (i) demand that such Lender (the “Affected Lender”), and upon such demand the Affected Lender shall promptly, assign its Revolving Commitments and outstanding Loans to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 12.5(d) for a purchase price equal to the aggregate principal balance of Loans then owing to the Affected Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Affected Lender, or (ii) except in the case of a Defaulting Lender, pay to the Affected Lender the aggregate principal balance of Loans then owing to the Affected Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon and accrued but unpaid fees owing to the Affected Lender, whereupon the Affected Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights or obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender shall reasonably cooperate in effectuating the replacement of such Affected Lender under this Section, but at no time shall the Administrative Agent, such Affected Lender nor any other Lender be obligated in any way whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee. The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this Section shall be at the Borrower's sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to the Administrative Agent, the Affected Lender or any of the other Lenders. The terms of this Section shall not in any way limit the Borrower's obligation to pay to any Affected Lender compensation owing to such Affected Lender pursuant to Section 3.12, Section 4.1 or Section 4.4.

Section 4.6 Treatment of Affected Loans.

If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Rate Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 4.1(b), Section 4.2 or Section 4.3, then such Lender's LIBOR Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for LIBOR Rate Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion required by Section 4.1(b) or Section 4.3 or to the extent required by law, on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 4.1 or Section 4.3 that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:

(a)to the extent that such Lender's LIBOR Rate Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender's LIBOR Rate Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

(b)all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR Rate Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR Rate Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 4.1 or Section 4.3 that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender's LIBOR Rate Loans pursuant to this Section no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Rate Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, then such Lender's Loans that are Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Rate Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments and/or Term Loan Exposure, as applicable.

Section 4.7 Change of Lending Office.

Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its Loans affected by the matters or circumstances described in Section 3.12, Section 4.1 or Section 4.3 to reduce the liability of the Borrower or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long as such designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, except that such Lender shall have no obligation to designate a Lending Office located in the United States of America.

Section 4.8 Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Rate Loans.

Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Article IV shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded LIBOR Rate Loans through the purchase of deposits in the relevant market bearing interest at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Rate Loans in an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR Rate Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this Article IV.

The Borrower and each other Obligor has the right and power, and has taken all necessary action to authorize it, to execute, deliver and perform each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party in accordance with their respective terms and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The Loan Documents to which the Borrower or any other Obligor is a party have been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized officers or other representatives of such Person and each is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person enforceable against such Person in accordance with its respective terms except as the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of certain obligations (other than the payment of principal) contained herein or therein may be limited by equitable principles generally.

The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower or any other Obligor is a party in accordance with their respective terms and the borrowings and other extensions of credit hereunder do not and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of notice, or both: (i) require any Governmental Approval (which has not been obtained or will not be obtained in the ordinary course of business) or violate any Applicable Law (including all Environmental Laws) relating to the Borrower or any other Obligor; (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under the Governing Documents of the Borrower or any other Obligor, or any indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the Borrower or any other Obligor is a party or by which it or any of its respective properties may be bound; or (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Borrower or any other Obligor.

As of the Agreement Date, Part I of Schedule 6.1(f) sets forth all of the real property owned or leased by the Borrower, each other Obligor and each of their respective Subsidiaries. Each such Person has good, marketable and legal title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, its respective assets, except (i) with respect to each Subsidiary of the Borrower and each Subsidiary of an Obligor whose failure to have such good, marketable and legal title to, or such valid leasehold interest in, its respective assets, has not had or could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on either the Borrower or the REIT Guarantor and (ii) with respect to real estate assets located in Texas to the extent that the concept of “marketable title” would not apply.

Schedule 6.1(g) is, as of the date hereof, a complete and correct listing of all Indebtedness of the Borrower, the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries, including without limitation, Contingent Liabilities (to the extent included in the definition of Indebtedness) of the Borrower and the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries, and indicating whether such Indebtedness is Secured Debt or Unsecured Debt, and Recourse Debt or Nonrecourse Debt. During the period from such date to the Agreement Date, none of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries incurred any material Indebtedness except as set forth in such Schedule. As of the Agreement Date, the Borrower, the REIT Guarantor and their respective Subsidiaries have performed and are in compliance with all of the material terms of all Indebtedness of such Persons and all instruments and agreements relating thereto, and no default or event of default, or event or condition which with the giving of notice, the lapse of time, or both, would constitute such a default or event of default, exists with respect to any such Indebtedness.

(i)Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.1(i), there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending (nor, to the knowledge of the Borrower, are there any actions, suits or proceedings threatened in writing, nor is there any basis therefor) against or in any other way relating adversely to or affecting the Borrower, any other Obligor, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any of their respective property in any court, or before any tribunal, administrative agency, board, arbitrator or mediator of any kind or before or by any other Governmental Authority which has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which question the validity or enforceability of any of the Loan Documents. There are no strikes, slow downs, work stoppages or walkouts or other labor disputes in progress or threatened relating to the Borrower, any other Obligor, or any of their respective Subsidiaries which has had or could be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(j)Taxes. All federal, state and other tax returns of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries required by Applicable Law to be filed have been duly filed, and all federal, state and other taxes, assessments and other governmental charges or levies upon the Borrower, each other Obligor, any of their respective Subsidiaries and their respective properties, income, profits and assets which are due and payable have been paid, except any such nonpayment which is at the time permitted or not required under Section 7.6. As of

the Agreement Date, none of the United States income tax returns of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries is under audit. All charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower, any other Obligor and each of their respective Subsidiaries in respect of any taxes or other governmental charges are in accordance with GAAP.

Neither the Borrower, the REIT Guarantor, nor any Subsidiary of the Borrower or the REIT Guarantor has on the Agreement Date any material contingent liabilities, liabilities, liabilities for taxes, or unusual or long-term commitments or unrealized or forward anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments, except as referred to or reflected or provided for in said financial statements or except as set forth on Schedule 6.1(k).

(l)No Material Adverse Change. Since December 31, 2011, there has been no material adverse change in the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, business or prospects of the Borrower, the Obligors or their respective Subsidiaries. Each of the (i) Borrower, (ii) the other Obligors and (iii) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, are Solvent.

(m)ERISA. Each member of the ERISA Group is in compliance with its obligations, if any, under the minimum funding standards of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code with respect to each Plan and is in compliance with the presently applicable provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code with respect to each Plan, except in each case for noncompliances which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Agreement Date, no member of the ERISA Group has (i) sought a waiver of the minimum funding standard under Section 412 of the Internal Revenue Code in respect of any Plan, (ii) failed to make any contribution or payment to any Plan or Multiemployer Plan or in respect of any Benefit Arrangement, or made any amendment to any Plan or Benefit Arrangement, which has resulted or could result in the imposition of a Lien or the posting of a bond or other security under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code or (iii) incurred any liability under Title IV of ERISA other than a liability to the PBGC for premiums under Section 4007 of ERISA.

The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the borrowing and repayment of amounts hereunder, do not and will not constitute “prohibited transactions” under ERISA or the Internal Revenue Code.

(o)Absence of Defaults. None of the Borrower, the REIT Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries is in default under its Governing Documents, and no event has occurred, which has not been remedied, cured or irrevocably waived: (i) which constitutes a Default; or (ii) which constitutes an event of default or, which with the passage of time, the giving of notice, a determination of materiality, the satisfaction of any condition, or any combination of the foregoing, would constitute an event of default, by Borrower, the REIT Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries under any Recourse Debt or Nonrecourse Debt that constitutes an Event of Default under Section 10.1(f).

(p)Environmental Matters.

(i)The Borrower, each other Obligor and each of their respective Subsidiaries, and each of the Properties and all operations at the Properties is in compliance with the requirements of all applicable Environmental Laws except for the matters set forth on Schedule 6.1(p) and such other non-compliance which, in any event, either individually or in the aggregate, has not had and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(ii)No Hazardous Materials have been (A) generated or manufactured on, transported to or from, treated at, stored at or discharged from any Property in violation of any Environmental Laws; (B) discharged into subsurface waters under any Property in violation of any Environmental Laws; or (C) discharged from any Property on or into property or waters (including subsurface waters) adjacent to any Property in violation of any Environmental Laws, except for the matters set forth on Schedule 6.1(p) and other violations which violations, in any event, in the case of any of (A), (B) or (C), either individually or in the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(iv)To the best of the Borrower's knowledge after due inquiry, no Property is located in an area identified by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development as an area having special flood hazards, or if any such Property is located in such a special flood hazard area, then the Borrower has obtained all insurance that is required to be maintained by law or which is customarily maintained by Persons engaged in similar businesses and owning similar Properties in the same general areas in which the Borrower operates except where such failure individually or in the aggregate has not had and could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying “margin stock” or a “margin security” within the meaning of Regulations T, U and X of the Board.

(s)Affiliate Transactions. Except as permitted by Section 9.9, none of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries is a party to or bound by any agreement or arrangement (whether oral or written) to which any Affiliate (but not any Subsidiary of Borrower) of any Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries is a party.

No other similar fees or commissions will be payable by any Obligor for any other services rendered to the Borrower, any of the Subsidiaries of the Borrower or any other Obligor or any other Obligor ancillary to the transactions contemplated hereby.

(w)Accuracy and Completeness of Information. No written information, report or other papers or data (excluding financial projections and other forward looking statements) furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by, on behalf of, or at the direction of, the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries in connection with or relating in any way to this Agreement, contained any untrue statement of a fact material to the creditworthiness of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make such statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The written information, reports and other papers and data with respect to the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries or the Borrowing Base Properties (other than projections and other forward-looking statements) furnished to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in connection with or relating in any way to this Agreement was, at the time so furnished, complete and correct in all material respects, or has been subsequently supplemented by other written information, reports or other papers or data, to the extent necessary to give in all material respects a true and accurate knowledge of the subject matter. All financial statements furnished to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by, on behalf of, or at the direction of, the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries in connection with or relating in any way to this Agreement, present fairly, in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved, the financial position of the Persons involved as at the date thereof and the results of operations for such periods. All financial projections and other forward looking statements prepared by, or on behalf of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries that have been or may hereafter be made available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender were or will be prepared in good faith based on assumptions

believed to be reasonable at the time made. No fact or circumstance is known to the Borrower which has had, or may in the future have (so far as the Borrower can reasonably foresee), a Material Adverse Effect which has not been set forth in the financial statements referred to in Section 6.1 or in such information, reports or other papers or data or otherwise disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders prior to the Agreement Date.

(x)REIT Status. The REIT Guarantor has elected to qualify as a REIT commencing with its taxable year ending December 31, 2010, has so elected for its taxable year ending December 31, 2011 and shall continue to so elect each taxable year hereafter, and is in compliance, and will remain in compliance, with all requirements and conditions imposed under the Internal Revenue Code to allow the REIT Guarantor to maintain its status as a REIT.

(y)Insurance. The Borrower, the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries have insurance covering the Borrower, the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries and their respective Properties in such amounts and against such risks and casualties as are customary for Persons or Properties of similar character and location, due regard being given to the type of improvements thereon, their construction, location, use and occupancy. As of the Agreement Date, none of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries has received notice that any such insurance has been cancelled, not renewed, or impaired in any way.

(z)Ownership of Borrower. The REIT Guarantor is the sole general partner of the Borrower and owns free of any Lien or other claim not less than a sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Equity Interest in the Borrower.

(aa)No Bankruptcy Filing. None of the Borrower, any Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries is contemplating either the filing of a petition by it under any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency laws or the liquidation of its assets or property, and the Borrower has no knowledge of any Person threatening the filing of any such petition against any of the Borrower, any Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(bb) No Fraudulent Intent. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents nor the performance of any actions required hereunder or thereunder is being undertaken by the Borrower or any other Obligor with or as a result of any actual intent by any of such Persons to hinder, delay or defraud any entity to which any of such Persons is now or will hereafter become indebted.

(cc) Transaction in Best Interests of Borrower and Obligors; Consideration. The transaction evidenced by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents is in the best interests of the Borrower and the other Obligors. The direct and indirect benefits to inure to the Borrower and the other Obligors pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute materially more than “reasonably equivalent value” (as such term is used in §548 of the Bankruptcy Code) and “valuable consideration,” “fair value,” and “fair consideration” (as such terms are used in any applicable state fraudulent conveyance law), in exchange for the benefits to be provided by the Borrower and the other Obligors pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and but for the willingness of each Guarantor to guaranty the Obligations, the Borrower would be unable to obtain the financing contemplated hereunder which financing will enable the Borrower and the other Obligors to have available financing to conduct and expand their business. The Borrower and the other Obligors constitute a single integrated financial enterprise and each receives a benefit from the availability of credit under this Agreement to the Borrower.

(dd) Representations and Warranties from Other Loan Documents. Each of the representations and warranties made by any of the Obligors in any of the other Loan Documents is true and correct in all material respects.

(ee) Property. All of the Borrower's, the other Obligors' and their respective Subsidiaries' properties are in good repair and condition, subject to ordinary wear and tear, other than (x) with respect to deferred maintenance existing as of the date of acquisition of such property as permitted in this Section, and (y) where the failure of the properties of any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any Subsidiary of an Obligor to be in good repair and condition has not had or could not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on either the Borrower or the REIT Guarantor. The Borrower has completed or caused to be completed an appropriate investigation of the

environmental condition of each Property as of the later of the date of the Borrower's, the Obligors' or the applicable Subsidiary's purchase thereof or the date upon which such property was last security for Indebtedness of such Persons, including preparation of a “Phase I” report and, if appropriate, a “Phase II” report, in each case prepared by a recognized environmental engineer in accordance with customary standards which discloses that such property is not in violation of the representations and covenants set forth in this Agreement, unless such violation has been disclosed in writing to the Administrative Agent and remediation actions satisfactory to Administrative Agent are being taken. There are no unpaid or outstanding real estate or other taxes or assessments on or against any property of the Borrower, the other Obligors or their respective Subsidiaries which are delinquent, except those not required to be paid pursuant to Section 7.6. Except as set forth in Schedule 6.1(ee) hereto, there are no pending eminent domain proceedings against any property of the Borrower, the other Obligors or their respective Subsidiaries or any part thereof, and, to the knowledge of the Borrower, no such proceedings are presently threatened or contemplated by any taking authority which, in all such events, individually or in the aggregate have had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. None of the property of the Borrower, the other Obligors or their respective Subsidiaries is now damaged or injured as a result of any fire, explosion, accident, flood or other casualty in any manner which individually or in the aggregate has had or could reasonably be expected to have any Material Adverse Effect.

(ff) Guarantors. Each Material Subsidiary of Borrower (other than an Excluded Subsidiary) is a Guarantor.

(gg) No Default. No Default has occurred and is continuing.

(hh) Subordination. None of the Borrower or any other Obligor is a party to or bound by any agreement, instrument or indenture that may require the subordination in right or time of payment of any of the Obligations to any other indebtedness or obligation of any of such Persons.

(ii) Anti-Terrorism Laws.

(i)None of the Borrower or any other Obligor or any of their Affiliates is in violation of any laws or regulations relating to terrorism or money laundering (“Anti- Terrorism Laws”), including Executive Order No. 13224 on Terrorist Financing, effective September 24, 2001 (the “Executive Order”) and the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Public Law 107-56.

(ii)None of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their Affiliates, or any of their brokers or other agents acting or benefiting from the Loan is a Prohibited Person. A “Prohibited Person” is any of the following:

(A)a person or entity that is listed in the Annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order;

(B)a person or entity owned or controlled by, or acting for or on behalf of, any person or entity that is listed in the Annex to, or is otherwise subject to the provisions of, the Executive Order;

(C)a person or entity with whom any Lender is prohibited from dealing or otherwise engaging in any transaction by any Anti-Terrorism Law;

(E)a person or entity that is named as a “specially designated national and blocked person” on the most current list published by the U.S. Treasury Department Office of Foreign Asset Control

at its official website or any replacement website or other replacement official publication of such list.

(c)Nonconforming Property. If the Borrower wants to include a Property as a Borrowing Base Property that does not meet the requirements for a Borrowing Base Property (a “Nonconforming Property”), the Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent request that the Lenders nevertheless include such Property as a Borrowing Base Property. The Borrower shall submit the Deliverables required under Section 8.5(b) for the Nonconforming Property to the Administrative Agent, which the Administrative Agent shall promptly furnish to the Lenders (it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to verify the truth, accuracy or completeness of any information contained therein).

(d)Removals of Borrowing Base Properties.

(i)Upon any Borrowing Base Property ceasing to qualify as a Borrowing Base Property or upon the Borrower's exclusion of one or more Borrowing Base Properties pursuant to Section 9.13, such Borrowing Base Property shall no longer be included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base Value.

Administrative Agent a Borrowing Base Certificate reflecting such disqualification, together with a statement of: (A) the identity of the disqualified Borrowing Base Property, (B) the Borrowing Base Value attributable to such Borrowing Base Property and (C) the certificates required by Section 8.5(d)(iv). Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of (1) (x) notice from Borrower that any disqualified Borrowing Base Property again qualifies as a Borrowing Base Property and (y) the certificates required by Section 8.5(d)(iv), or (2) notice from Borrower of inclusion under Section 9.13, such Borrowing Base Property shall again be included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base Value.

(ii)Subject to Section 8.5(e), the Borrower may voluntarily remove any Property from Borrowing Base Properties (including as a result of any financing, sale, transfer or other disposition of any Borrowing Base Property in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents) by delivering to the Administrative Agent, no later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which such removal is to be effected (or, in the event such removal shall result from the financing, sale, transfer or other disposition of a Borrowing Base Property, ten (10) Business Days prior to such proposed financing, sale, transfer or disposition), (A) a Borrowing Base Certificate reflecting such removal, together with a statement (1) that no Default then exists or would result from such removal, (2) of the identity of the Borrowing Base Property being removed, and (3) the Borrowing Base Value attributable to such Borrowing Base Property and (B) the certificates required by Section 8.5(d)(iv).

(iii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event that a Property (a “Defaulted Property”) included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base Value fails to satisfy the requirements set forth in clause (e) of the definition of “Borrowing Base Property” as a result of conditions existing or effecting such Property for any period of time prior to the acquisition thereof by the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries of which the Borrower had no knowledge (any such failure a “Replacement Event”), then, if such Replacement Event results in a Default, the Borrower shall have forty-five (45) days from the earlier of (A) the date the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that a Replacement Event has occurred or (B) the date the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that a Replacement Event has occurred, in which to identify one or more Potential Borrowing Base Properties to cure such Default by replacing the Defaulted Property as a Borrowing Base Property and delivering to the Administrative Agent those items specified in Sections 8.5(a), 8.5(b) and 8.5(d)(iv) with respect thereto and otherwise satisfy all conditions to such Property being accepted as a Borrowing Base Property pursuant to this Agreement (the “Replacement Conditions”). For the avoidance of doubt, in the event the Borrower fails to comply with the Replacement Conditions within the time periods set forth above, the right of the Borrower to cure such Default as provided in this clause (iii) shall cease, and thereupon the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have any and all rights and remedies with respect to such Replacement Event as may be available under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

(ii)remove any Borrowing Base Property from the calculation of the Borrowing Base Value pursuant to Section 8.5(d)(ii); or

(iii)substitute any Potential Borrowing Base Property(s) for any existing Borrowing Base Properties;

unless, immediately following such sale, transfer, disposition, removal or substitution (A) there shall be at least seven (7) Borrowing Base Properties included in the calculation of the Borrowing Base Value and (B) the Borrowing Base Value would be at least $325,000,000 (the “Minimum Borrowing Base Requirements”).

Section 10.3 Allocation of Proceeds.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and maturity of any of the Obligations has been accelerated, all payments received by the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, in respect of any principal of or interest on the Obligations or any other amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder or thereunder, shall be applied in the following order and priority:

(a)first, to amounts due to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in respect of fees and expenses due under Sections 3.6 and 12.2;

(b)second, to payments of interest on Swingline Loans;

(c)third, to payments of interest on all other Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, to be applied for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, pro rata among the Lenders based upon their applicable Commitment Percentages (and as to the Loans, first to Base Rate Loans and then to LIBOR Rate Loans);

(d)fourth, to payments of principal of Swingline Loans;

(e)fifth, to payments of principal of all other Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, to be applied for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, pro rata among the Lenders based upon the aggregate outstanding Loans and Reimbursement Obligations (and as to the Loans, first to Base Rate Loans and then to LIBOR Rate Loans);

(i)ninth, to any amount remaining after application as provided above, shall be paid to the Borrower or whomever else may be legally entitled thereto.

Section 10.4 Collateral Account.

(a)As collateral security for the prompt payment in full when due of all Letter of Credit Liabilities and the other Obligations, the Borrower hereby pledges and grants to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders as provided herein, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in and to the Collateral Account and the balances from time to time in the Collateral Account (including the investments and reinvestments therein provided for below). The balances from time to time in the Collateral Account shall not constitute payment of any Letter of Credit Liabilities until applied by the Administrative Agent as provided herein. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, funds held in the Collateral Account shall be subject to withdrawal only as provided in this Section and in Section 2.7(b), 2.12 and 3.11. Amounts shall be deposited into the Collateral Account as provided in Sections 2.7(b), 2.12, 3.11, 10.2 and 10.3.

(b)Amounts on deposit in the Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested by the Administrative Agent in such Cash Equivalents as the Administrative Agent shall determine in its sole discretion. All such deposits, investments and reinvestments shall be held in the name of and be under the sole dominion and control of the Administrative Agent. The Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to exercise any and all rights of the Borrower in respect of the Collateral Account and to give all instructions, directions and entitlement orders in respect thereof as the Administrative Agent shall deem necessary or desirable. The Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrower to file such financing statements as the Administrative Agent may deem necessary in connection with the perfection of the security interests in the Collateral Account. The Borrower agrees to do such further acts and things, and to execute and deliver such additional documents as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request at any time in connection with the administration or enforcement of its rights with respect to the Collateral Account. For the purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code, Georgia shall be deemed to be the location and jurisdiction of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Account and any securities entitlements relating thereto. The Administrative Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Administrative Agent accords other funds deposited with the Administrative Agent, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any funds held in the Collateral Account.

(c)If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Requisite Lenders may, in their discretion, at any time and from time to time, instruct the Administrative Agent to liquidate any such investments and reinvestments and credit the proceeds thereof to the Collateral Account and apply or cause to be applied such proceeds and any other balances in the Collateral Account for the ratable benefit of the Lenders to the payment of any of the Letter of Credit Liabilities due and payable.

(d)If (i) no Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) all of the Letter of Credit Liabilities have been paid in full, the Administrative Agent shall, from time to time, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, such of the balances in the Collateral Account as exceed the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities at such time.

(e)The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent from time to time such fees as the Administrative Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Administrative Agent's administration of the Collateral Account and investments and reinvestments of funds therein.

Section 10.5 Performance by the Administrative Agent.

If the Borrower shall fail to perform any covenant, duty or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of the Borrower after the expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth herein. In such event, the Borrower shall, at the request of the Administrative Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably expended by the Administrative Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Post-Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for the performance of any obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Section 10.6 Rights Cumulative.

The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable Law. In exercising their respective rights and remedies the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may be selective and no failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.

ARTICLE XI. THE AGENT

Section 11.1 Authorization and Action.

Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Lender's behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to enter into the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders. Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Requisite Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. Nothing herein (including the use of the term “Administrative Agent”) shall be construed to deem the Administrative Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender nor to impose on the Administrative Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein. At the request of a Lender, the Administrative Agent will forward to such Lender copies or, where appropriate, originals of the documents delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. The Agent will also furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy of any certificate or notice furnished by the Borrower, any Obligor or any other Affiliate of the Borrower or any Obligor, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of the Obligations), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and

such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable Law. Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default unless the Requisite Lenders have so directed the Administrative Agent to exercise such right or remedy. The Borrower may rely on written amendments or waivers executed by the Administrative Agent or acts taken by the Administrative Agent as being authorized by the Lenders or the Requisite Lenders, as applicable, to the extent the Administrative Agent does not advise Borrower that it has not obtained such authorization from the Lenders or the Requisite Lenders, as applicable.

Section 11.2 Administrative Agent's Reliance, Etc.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (a) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the Administrative Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; (b) may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for the Borrower or any other Obligor), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or any other Person and shall not be responsible to any Lender or any other Person for any statements, warranties or representations made by any Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of the Borrower or other Persons or inspect the property, books or records of the Borrower or any other Person; (e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in any such collateral; and (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone or telecopy) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties.

Section 11.3 Notice of Defaults.

The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” If the Administrative Agent receives such a “notice of default”, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

Section 11.4 Regions Bank, as Lender.

Regions, as a Lender, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Regions in each case in its individual capacity. Regions and its affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower, any other Obligor or any other affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the other Lenders. Further, the Administrative Agent and any affiliate may accept fees and other consideration

from the Borrower for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the other Lenders.

Section 11.5 Approvals of Lenders.

All communications from the Administrative Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender's determination, consent, approval or disapproval, including amendments, waivers and consents under Section 12.6, (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and a summary of all oral information provided to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower in respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include the Administrative Agent's recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof. Each Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within twenty (20) Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and except with respect to items requiring the unanimous consent or approval of the Lenders under Section 12.6, unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or determination of the Administrative Agent (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within the applicable time period for reply, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination.

Section 11.6 Lender Credit Decision, Etc.

Each Lender expressly acknowledges and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel, attorneys-in-fact or other affiliates has made any representations or warranties as to the financial condition, operations, creditworthiness, solvency or other information concerning the business or affairs of the Borrower, any other Obligor, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Person to such Lender and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any such representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on the financial statements of the Borrower, the other Obligors, and their respective Subsidiaries, or any other Affiliate thereof, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Borrower, the Obligors, their respective Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transaction contemplated hereby. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Administrative Agent or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on such review, advice, documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower, any other Obligor, any of their respective Subsidiaries or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or other Affiliates. Each Lender acknowledges that the Administrative Agent's legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Administrative Agent and is not acting as counsel to such Lender.

Section 11.7 Indemnification of the Administrative Agent.

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender's respective Commitment Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as the Administrative Agent but not as a Lender) in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct or if the Administrative Agent fails to follow the written direction of the Requisite Lenders unless such failure is pursuant to the reasonable advice of counsel of which the Lenders have received notice. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing but subject to the preceding provision, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees of the counsel(s) of the Administrative Agent's own choosing) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration or enforcement of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents, any suit or action brought by the Administrative Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws. Such out‑of‑pocket expenses (including counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of the Administrative Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Administrative Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Administrative Agent that the Administrative Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Administrative Agent is not so entitled to indemnification. The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this Agreement. If the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Administrative Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.

Section 11.8 Successor Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent may resign at any time as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. If, at any time, Regions Bank is unable to continue to serve as Administrative Agent, the Borrower may replace Regions Bank as Administrative Agent with either U.S. Bank National Association or JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The Administrative Agent may be removed as the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by the Requisite Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as the Administrative Agent) as a result of (i) its gross negligence or willful misconduct or (ii) it being a Defaulting Lender or meeting the criteria of a Defaulting Lender. The Administrative Agent may be removed as the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents by the Borrower and the Requisite Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as the Administrative Agent) as a result of it being a Defaulting Lender or meeting the criteria of a Defaulting Lender. Any such removal, replacement or resignation shall also constitute the Administrative Agent's resignation as Swingline Lender and may, at such Administrative Agent's option, also constitute its resignation as Issuing Lender. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Requisite Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as the Administrative Agent, in the case of the removal of the Administrative Agent under the immediately preceding sentence) shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent and Swingline Lender, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be a commercial bank having total combined assets of at least $5,000,000,000, which appointment shall, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, be subject to the Borrower's approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (except that the Borrower shall, in all events, be deemed to have approved each Lender (and its affiliates) holding a Commitment Percentage of at least ten percent (10%) (calculated

at the time the Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation) as a successor Administrative Agent and Swingline Lender). If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within thirty (30) days after the resigning Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation or the Lenders' removal of the resigning Administrative Agent, then the resigning or removed Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be a commercial bank having total combined assets of at least $5,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent or Swingline Lender hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent and Swingline Lender shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents as Administrative Agent and Swingline Lender. After any Administrative Agent's resignation, replacement or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article XI and all provisions of this Agreement relating to Swingline Loans shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent or Swingline Lender under the Loan Documents.

Section 11.9 Titled Agents.

Each of the Titled Agents in each such respective capacity, assumes no responsibility or obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, for servicing, enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, nor any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders. The titles of “Joint Lead Arranger and Joint Bookrunner,” “Co‑Syndication Agent,” and “Co-Documentation Agent” are solely honorific and imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Titled Agents to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or any Lender and the use of such titles does not impose on the Titled Agents any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or entitle the Titled Agents to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.

Section 11.10 Other Loans by Lenders to Obligors.

The Lenders agree that one or more of them may now or hereafter have other loans to and derivative contracts and/or business arrangements with one or more of the Obligors which are not subject to this Agreement. The Lenders agree that the Lender(s) which may have such other loan(s) to the Obligors may collect payments on such loan(s) and may secure such loan(s) (so long as such loan does not itself expressly violate this Agreement). Further, the Lenders agree that the Lender(s) which may have such other loan(s) to the Obligors shall have no obligation to attempt to collect payments under the Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in preference and priority over the collection and/or enforcement of such other loan(s).

If to a Lender:

To such Lender's address or telecopy number, as applicable, set forth on its signature page hereto (or, if not set forth thereon, as specified in its administrative questionnaire provided to the Administrative Agent) or in the applicable Assignment and Assumption.

or, as to each party at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties delivered in compliance with this Section. All such notices and other communications shall be effective (i) if mailed, when received; (ii) if telecopied, when transmitted (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient); or (iii) if hand delivered or sent by overnight courier, when delivered. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, (A) all notices or communications to the Administrative Agent or any Lender under Article II shall be effective only when actually received and (B) all notices and other communications delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in subsection (b) below, shall be effective as provided in such subsection (b). Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to the Borrower (nor shall the Administrative Agent incur any liability to the Lenders) for acting upon any telephonic notice referred to in this Agreement which the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, believes in good faith to have been given by a Person authorized to deliver such notice or for otherwise acting in good faith hereunder.

(b)Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e‑mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures reasonably approved by the Administrative Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or any Issuing Lender pursuant to Article II if such Lender or such Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Section by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant

to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications and will not allow for electronic communication of any notice of Default. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender's receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address for locating such notice or communication.

(c)Platform.

(i)The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Communications (as defined below) available to the Issuing Lender and the other Lenders by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak or a substantially similar electronic transmission system (the “Platform”).

(ii)The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agent Parties (as defined below) do not warrant the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall the Administrative Agent, any of its affiliates, or any of its or its affiliates' officers, employees, agents, or representatives (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower or the other Obligors, any Lender or any other Person or entity for damages of any kind, except damages arising directly from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, but in no event shall any Agent Party be liable for any indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise), arising out of the Borrower's or the Administrative Agent's transmission of communications through the Platform. “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section 12.1, including through the Platform.

Section 12.2 Expenses.

The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all of its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, administration and interpretation of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, any of the Loan Documents (including due diligence expenses and travel expenses relating to closing), and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent (such expenses to include ongoing charges for DebtDomain, Intralinks, SyndTrak Online or any similar system), (b) to pay or reimburse Regions Bank and Regions Capital Markets or their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the initial syndication of the Loans by Regions Bank and Regions Capital Markets, (c) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for all their costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under the Loan Documents, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of their respective counsel (including the allocated fees and expenses of in-house counsel) and any payments in indemnification or otherwise payable by the Lenders to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, (d) to pay, and indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any failure to pay or delay in paying, documentary, stamp,

excise and other similar taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of any of the Loan Documents, or consummation of any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, any Loan Document, and (e) to the extent not already covered by any of the preceding subsections, to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for all their costs and expenses incurred in connection with any bankruptcy or other proceeding of the type described in Sections 10.1(g) or 10.1(h), including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and any Lender, whether such fees and expenses are incurred prior to, during or after the commencement of such proceeding or the confirmation or conclusion of any such proceeding. If the Borrower shall fail to pay any amounts required to be paid by it pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders may pay such amounts on behalf of the Borrower and either deem the same to be Loans outstanding hereunder or otherwise Obligations owing hereunder.

Section 12.3 Set-off.

Subject to Section 3.3 and in addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Participant is hereby authorized by the Borrower, at any time or from time to time during the continuance of an Event of Default, without prior notice to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of a Lender and Participant subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent exercised in its sole discretion, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Participant, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations, irrespective of whether or not any or all of the Loans and all other Obligations have been declared to be, or have otherwise become, due and payable as permitted by Section 10.2, and although such obligations shall be contingent or unmatured. Promptly following any such set-off the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower thereof and of the application of such set-off, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not invalidate such set-off. The foregoing shall not apply to any account governed by a written agreement containing express waivers by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to rights of set-off.

Section 12.4 Governing Law; Litigation; Jurisdiction; Other Matters; Waivers.

(a)THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT ENTERED INTO PURSUANT TO THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED, CONSTRUED, APPLIED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK PURSUANT TO SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (OTHER THAN THOSE CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THAT WOULD DEFER TO THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION). WITHOUT IN ANY WAY LIMITING THE PRECEDING CHOICE OF LAW, THE PARTIES ELECT TO BE GOVERNED BY NEW YORK LAW.

(b)WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OR ACTION ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES, OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, BORROWER (A) IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF, AND (B) IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY HAVE AT ANY TIME TO THE LAYING ON VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT, IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS WILL BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE LENDER FROM BRINGING AN ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT HERETO IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

(c)SERVICE OF PROCESS. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 12.1. NOTHING IN THIS

AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY HERETO TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

Section 12.15 Successors and Assigns.

(a)The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of all Lenders and any such assignment or other transfer to which all of the Lenders have not so consented shall be null and void.

(b)Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Loans at, to or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an affiliate of such Lender except to the extent such transfer would result in increased costs to the Borrower.

(c)Any Lender may at any time grant to one or more banks or other financial institutions (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its Revolving Commitment or the Obligations owing to such Lender; provided, however, any such participating interest must be for a constant and not a varying percentage interest. Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.3 and this Section 12.5, no Participant shall have any rights or benefits under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.12 and Article IV hereof to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section. In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Borrower 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. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, however, such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) increase, or extend the term or extend the time or waive any requirement for the reduction or termination of, such Lender's Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Lender, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (v) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors (except as otherwise permitted under Section 7.12(b)). An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by Section 12.5(d) or 12.5(e) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (c). The selling Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of the sale of any participation hereunder and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, certify to the Administrative Agent that such participation is permitted hereunder.

(d)Any Lender may with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender and, so long as no Default shall exist, the Borrower (which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its Revolving Commitment, the Obligations owing to it or its other rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes; provided, however, (i) no such consent by the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Borrower shall be required in the case of any assignment to another Lender or any affiliate of such Lender or of another Lender unless such Lender is a Defaulting Lender; (ii) to the extent that the assigning Lender holds both a Revolving Commitment and Term Loan Exposure and, so long as no Default shall exist, each assignment by such Lender shall be made pro rata among its Revolving Commitment and Term Loan Exposure unless waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and the Borrower, (iii) any partial assignment shall be in an amount at least equal to $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and, after giving effect to such partial assignment, the assigning Lender retains a portion of the Revolving Commitment and/or Term Loan Exposure so assigned having an aggregate outstanding principal balance of at least $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, unless waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and, so long as no Default shall exist, the Borrower, except that the conditions set forth in

this subsection (iii) shall not apply (A) to any full assignment by any Lender of its Revolving Commitment and Term Loan Exposure together (or, if such Lender only holds either a Revolving Commitment or Term Loan Exposure, but not both, then to any full assignment by such Lender of its Revolving Commitment or Term Loan Exposure, as applicable), or (B) with respect to its Revolving Commitment, after all of the Revolving Commitments have been terminated; and (iv) each such assignment shall be effected by means of an Assignment and Assumption, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be deemed to be a Lender party to this Agreement as of the effective date of the Assignment and Assumption and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender with a Revolving Commitment or Term Loan Exposure as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption, and the transferor Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (d), the transferor Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that new Notes are issued to the Assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate, and any other documents reasonably required by a Lender in connection with such assignment shall be executed by the Borrower. In connection with any such assignment, the transferor Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $3,500.

(e)The Administrative Agent shall maintain at the Principal Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Revolving Commitments and Term Loan Exposure of each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender and the Borrower notice of the assignment by any Lender of its rights as contemplated by this Section. The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register and copies of each Assignment and Assumption shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice to the Administrative Agent. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender, together with each Note subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Assumption has been completed and if the Administrative Agent receives the processing and recording fee described in Section 12.5(d) above, (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower.

(f)In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this Section, any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, and such Loans and Notes shall be fully transferable as provided therein. No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

(g)A Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries or Affiliates in the possession of such Lender from time to time to Assignees and Participants (including prospective Assignees and Participants) subject to compliance with Section 12.8.

(h)Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries.

(i)Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of, or filings in respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United States of America or of any other jurisdiction.

Section 12.6 Amendments.

(a)Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be given by the Lenders may be given, and any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document may be amended, and the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries of any terms of this Agreement or such other Loan Document or the continuance of any Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the Requisite Lenders (and, in the case of an amendment to any Loan Document, the written consent of the Borrower), provided, however, no amendment, waiver or consent shall (i) do any of the following, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender: (A) waive any provisions contained in Section 5.1 hereof; (B) modify the definition of the term “Requisite Lenders,” (C) modify in any other manner the number or percentage of the Lenders (including all of the Lenders) required to make any determinations or waive any rights hereunder or to modify any provision hereof, including without limitation, any modification of this Section if such modification would have such effect; (D) release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty (except as permitted under Section 7.12(b)); (E) release Borrower from its obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents; or (F) (1) modify the definition of the term “Commitment Percentages” or (2) amend or otherwise modify the provisions of Section 3.2(a); (ii) do any of the following, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby: (A) except as provided in Section 2.11(b) hereof, increase the Commitments (or any component thereof) of any Lender; (B) reduce the principal of, or interest rates that have accrued or that will be charged on the outstanding principal amount of, any Loans or Fees or other Obligations (except that Requisite Lenders may waive application of the Post-Default Rate and the increase in the Letter of Credit fee described in the last sentence of Section 3.6(b)(ii)); (C) reduce the amount of any Fees payable hereunder; (D) except as provided in Section 2.6(b) hereof, postpone any date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loans or any other Obligations; or (v) except as provided in Section 2.3, extend the expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond twelve months after the Termination Date; and (iii) modify the definitions of “Borrowing Base Availability,” “Borrowing Base Property,” or “Borrowing Base Value,” or the provisions of Sections 2.13(a) or 8.5 without the written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender.

(b)Further, no amendment, waiver or consent unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, shall affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. Any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.2, Section 3.11 or the obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of the Swingline Lender. Any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.3, Section 3.11 or the obligations or rights of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of the Issuing Lender.

(c)No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon and any amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose set forth therein. No course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto. Except as otherwise explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice to or demand upon the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

Section 12.7 Nonliability of the Administrative Agent and Lenders.

The relationship between the Borrower and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall be solely that of borrower and lender. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower and no provision in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, and no course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto, shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty owing by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Lender, the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries. Neither the

Administrative Agent nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower to review or inform the Borrower of any matter in connection with any phase of the Borrower's business or operations.

Section 12.8 Confidentiality.

(a)Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates' directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower; provided that the source of such information was not known by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender to be bound by a confidentiality agreement or other legal or contractual obligation of confidentiality with respect to such information. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

(b)EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 12.8(a) FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

(c)ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE BORROWER OR THE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE‑LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON‑PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE BORROWER AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

(d)The Borrower shall have the right to review and approve any press release or advertisement made after the date hereof relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or relating to the Borrower, the REIT Guarantor or any of their affiliates before any such announcement or filing is made, provided that if the Borrower does not provide written approval or rejection of any public announcement or advertisement within five (5) days from the date of receipt by the Borrower of such announcement or advertisement, the Borrower shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of such announcement or advertisement. Notwithstanding the

foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 12.8(d) is intended to include any filing with any court in connection with the Administrative Agent's exercise of its rights and remedies hereunder.

Section 12.9 Indemnification.

(a)Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Borrower shall and hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, any affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, each of the Lenders and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, agents, employees and counsel (each referred to herein as an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses of every kind and nature (including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court costs and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice rendered in connection therewith, but excluding losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses indemnification in respect of which is specifically covered by Section 3.12 or 4.1 or expressly excluded from the coverage of such Sections) incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with, arising out of, or by reason of, any suit, cause of action, claim, arbitration, investigation or settlement, consent decree or other proceeding (the foregoing referred to herein as an “Indemnity Proceeding”) which is in any way related directly or indirectly to: (i) this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) the making of any Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder; (iii) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit; (iv) the Administrative Agent's or any Lender's entering into this Agreement; (v) the fact that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have established the credit facility evidenced hereby in favor of the Borrower; (vi) the fact that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are creditors of the Borrower and have or are alleged to have information regarding the financial condition, strategic plans or business operations of the Borrower, the other Obligors, or their respective Subsidiaries; (vii) the fact that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are material creditors of the Borrower and are alleged to influence directly or indirectly the business decisions or affairs of the Borrower, the other Obligors and their respective Subsidiaries or their financial condition; (viii) the exercise of any right or remedy the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may have under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; or (ix) any violation or non-compliance by the Borrower, any other Obligor, or any of their respective Subsidiaries of any Applicable Law (including any Environmental Law) including, but not limited to, any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by (A) the Internal Revenue Service or state taxing authority or (B) any Governmental Authority or other Person under any Environmental Law, including any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by a Governmental Authority or other Person seeking remedial or other action to cause the Borrower, the Obligors or their respective Subsidiaries (or their respective properties) (or the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders as successors to the Borrower, any other Obligor or their respective Subsidiaries) to be in compliance with such Environmental Laws; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party (x) for any acts or omissions of such Indemnified Party (including all directors, officers, shareholders, agents, employees and counsel of such Indemnified Party) that constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction after the expiration of all applicable appeal periods, (y) resulting from a claim brought by the Borrower against an Indemnified Party for breach in bad faith of such Indemnified Party's obligations under this Agreement, if the Borrower has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (z) in connection with any losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses arising out of any action, claim, arbitration, investigation or settlement, consent decree or other proceeding brought by any Indemnified Party against any other Indemnified Party in connection with, arising out of, or by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby or the making of any Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder. In addition, the foregoing indemnification in favor of any director, officer, shareholder, agent, employee or counsel of the Administrative Agent, any affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall be solely in their respective capacities as such director, officer, shareholder, agent, employee, or counsel. Borrower shall not be liable for payment of any settlement of any Indemnity Proceeding effected without Borrower's written consent, but if the same is settled with such consent, Borrower agrees that such settlement is covered by the foregoing indemnity.

(b)The Borrower's indemnification obligations under this Section shall apply to all Indemnity Proceedings arising out of, or related to, the foregoing whether or not an Indemnified Party is a named party in such Indemnity Proceeding. In this connection, this indemnification shall cover all reasonable costs and expenses of any Indemnified Party in connection with any deposition of any Indemnified Party or compliance with any subpoena (including any subpoena requesting the production of documents). This indemnification shall, among other things, apply to any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by other creditors of the Borrower, any other Obligor, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, any shareholder, partner or other equity holder of the Borrower, any other Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries (whether such shareholder(s) or such other Persons are prosecuting such Indemnity Proceeding in their individual capacity or derivatively on behalf of such Person), any account debtor of the Borrower, any other Obligor, or any of their respective Subsidiaries or by any Governmental Authority.

(c)This indemnification shall apply to any Indemnity Proceeding arising during the pendency of any bankruptcy proceeding filed by or against Borrower and/or an Obligor or any of their respective Subsidiaries.

(d)All out-of-pocket fees and expenses of, and all amounts paid to third-persons by, an Indemnified Party with respect to an Indemnity Proceeding shall be advanced by the Borrower at the request of such Indemnified Party notwithstanding any claim or assertion by the Borrower that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Party that such Indemnified Party will reimburse the Borrower if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party is not so entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(e)An Indemnified Party may conduct its own investigation and defense of, and may formulate its own strategy with respect to, any Indemnity Proceeding covered by this Section and, as provided above, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed by the Borrower. No action taken by legal counsel chosen by an Indemnified Party in investigating or defending against any such Indemnity Proceeding shall vitiate or in any way impair the obligations and duties of the Borrower hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless each such Indemnified Party.

(f)If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower hereunder are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under Applicable Law.

(g)The Borrower's obligations hereunder shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full in cash of the Obligations, and are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any other of their obligations set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party.

Section 12.10 Termination; Survival.

At such time as (a) all of the Commitments have been terminated, (b) all Letters of Credit have terminated, (c) none of the Lenders, the Swingline Lender nor the Issuing Lender is obligated any longer under this Agreement to make any Loans or issue Letters of Credit and (d) all Obligations (other than obligations which survive as provided in the following sentence) have been paid and satisfied in full, this Agreement shall terminate. The indemnities to which the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Swingline Lender are entitled under the provisions of Sections 3.12, 4.1, 4.4, 11.7, 12.2 and 12.9 and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the provisions of Section 12.4, shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender (i) notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or of the other Loan Documents, against events arising after such termination as well as before and (ii) at all times after any such party ceases to be a party to this Agreement with respect to all matters and events existing on or prior to the date such party ceased to be a party to this Agreement.

Section 12.11 Severability of Provisions.

Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 12.12 Counterparts.

This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Except as provided in Section 5.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 12.13 Obligations with Respect to Obligors and Subsidiaries.

The obligations of the Borrower to direct or prohibit the taking of certain actions by the other Obligors and the Subsidiaries of the Borrower and the other Obligors as specified herein shall be absolute and not subject to any defense the Borrower may have that the Borrower does not control such Obligors or Subsidiaries.

Section 12.14 Limitation of Liability.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender, nor any affiliate, officer, director, employee, attorney, or agent of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and the Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to ▇▇▇ any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages suffered or incurred by the Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents. The Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to ▇▇▇ the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any of the Administrative Agent's or any Lender's affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or financed hereby.

Section 12.15 Entire Agreement.

This Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents referred to herein and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees embody the final, entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior commitments, agreements, representations, and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and may not be contradicted or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements or discussions of the parties hereto. There are no oral agreements among the parties hereto.

Section 12.16 Construction.

The Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each Lender acknowledge that each of them has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity to review this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and each Lender.

Section 12.17 Time of the Essence.

Time is of the essence with respect to each and every covenant, agreement and obligation of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 12.18 Patriot Act.

Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act (as hereinafter defined) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower and the Guarantors that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and each of the Guarantors, which information includes the name and address of the Borrowers and each of the Guarantors and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower and each of the Guarantors Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

THIS CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of September 26, 2012, by and among ▇▇▇▇▇ Core Office Income Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”) and the parties executing this agreement as Guarantors (such parties are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Guarantors”; the Borrower and the Guarantors are sometimes hereinafter referred to individually as a “Contributing Party” and collectively as the “Contributing Parties”).

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of September 26, 2012 by and among the Borrower, the financial institutions party thereto and their assignees under Section 12.5 thereof (the “Lenders”) and Regions Bank, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) (such agreement, as the same may have been or may from time to time be amended, modified, restated or extended, being hereinafter referred to as the “Credit Agreement”), the Lenders have agreed to extend financial accommodations to the Borrower;

WHEREAS, as a condition to the execution of the Credit Agreement, the Lenders have required that the Guarantors execute and deliver that certain Guaranty dated as of the date hereof (such agreement, as the same may have been or may from time to time be amended, modified, restated or extended, being hereinafter referred to as the “Guaranty”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Guaranty, the Guarantors have jointly and severally guaranteed the obligations described in the Guaranty (the “Guaranteed Obligations”);

WHEREAS, either (i) the Borrower or its .01% general partner is the owner, directly or indirectly, of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests in each Guarantor, or (ii) the REIT Guarantor is the owner, directly or indirectly of a substantial amount of the Equity Interests in the Borrower;

WHEREAS, the Borrower and each of the Guarantors, though separate legal entities, are mutually dependent upon each other in the conduct of their respective businesses as an integrated operation and have determined it to be in their mutual best interest to obtain financing from the Administrative Agent and the Lenders through their collective efforts; and

WHEREAS, the Borrower and the Guarantors will derive substantial direct or indirect economic benefit from the effectiveness and existence of the Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants hereinafter contained, and to induce the Borrower to enter into the Credit Agreement and the Guarantors to enter in to the Guaranty, it is agreed as follows:

Exh. B-1

1/2377662.3

1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement.

2. Contribution. To the extent that a Contributing Party shall, under the Guaranty, make a payment (a “Guarantor Payment”) of a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, then such Guarantor shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, the other Contributing Parties in an amount equal to the amount derived by subtracting from any such Guarantor Payment the “Allocable Amount” (as defined herein) of such Contributing Party; provided, however, that no Contributing Party shall be liable hereunder for contribution, indemnification, subrogation or reimbursement with respect to any Guarantor Payment for any amounts in excess of the “Allocable Amount” (as defined herein) for such Contributing Party.

As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of each Contributing Party shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability which could be asserted against such Contributing Party hereunder with respect to the applicable Guarantor Payment without (i) rendering such Contributing Party “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(32) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or Section 2 of either the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (the “UFTA”) or the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (the “UFCA”) or the fraudulent conveyance and transfer laws of the State of New York or such other jurisdiction whose laws shall be determined to apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws”), (ii) leaving such Contributing Party with unreasonably small capital, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA or Section 5 of the UFCA or the Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws, or (iii) leaving such Contributing Party unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA or Section 6 of the UFCA or the Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws.

3. No Impairment. This Agreement is intended only to define the relative rights of the Contributing Parties, and nothing set forth in this Agreement is intended to or shall reduce or impair the obligations of the Guarantors to pay any amounts, as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Guaranty. The parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets in favor of the Guarantors to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

4. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective upon its execution by each of the parties hereto and shall continue in full force and effect and may not be amended, terminated or otherwise revoked by any Contributing Party until all of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full (in lawful money of the United States of America) and discharged and the Credit Agreement and financing arrangements evidenced and governed by the Credit Agreement shall have been terminated, except as to any Guarantor upon its release from the Guaranty under the terms of the Credit Agreement or as approved by all of the Lenders. Each Contributing Party agrees that if, notwithstanding the foregoing, such Contributing Party shall have any right under applicable law to terminate or revoke this Agreement, and such Contributing Party shall

attempt to exercise such right, then such termination or revocation shall not be effective until a written notice of such revocation or termination, specifically referring hereto and signed by such Contributing Party, is actually received by each of the other Contributing Parties and by the Administrative Agent at its notice address set forth in the Credit Agreement. Such notice shall not affect the right or power of any Contributing Party to enforce rights arising prior to receipt of such written notice by each of the other Contributing Parties

Exh. B-2

1/2377662.3

and the Administrative Agent. If any Lender or the Administrative Agent grants additional loans or financial accommodations to the Borrower or takes other action giving rise to additional Guaranteed Obligations after any Contributing Party has exercised any right to terminate or revoke this Agreement but before the Administrative Agent receives such written notice, the rights of the other Contributing Parties to contribution and indemnification hereunder in connection with any Guarantor Payments made with respect to such loans or Guaranteed Obligations shall be the same as if such termination or revocation had not occurred.

5. Governing Law. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM TO ASSERT THAT THE LAW OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION GOVERNS THIS AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK PURSUANT TO SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

6. Third Party Beneficiary. The Contributing Parties agree that the Administrative Agent has a valid interest in the terms of this Agreement pursuant to the Credit Agreement and the Guaranty. The Contributing Parties further agree that until all obligations of the Contributing Parties under the Credit Agreement are fully performed and the obligations of the Lenders to extend Loans and issue Letters of Credit has terminated, the Administrative Agent shall be an express third party beneficiary of this Agreement with the right to enforce the terms and provisions hereof.

7. Counterparts. This Agreement and any amendment hereof may be executed in several counterparts and by each party on a separate counterpart, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. In proving the Agreement it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Credit Parties have agreed to make available to the Borrower certain financial accommodations on the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Borrower and each of the Guarantors, though separate legal entities, are mutually dependent upon each other in the conduct of their respective businesses as an integrated operation and have determined it to be in their mutual best interests to obtain financing from the Credit Parties through their collective efforts;

WHEREAS, each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the Credit Parties making such financial accommodations available to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and, accordingly, each Guarantor is willing to guarantee the Borrower’s obligations to the Credit Parties on the terms and conditions contained herein; and

WHEREAS, each Guarantor’s execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition to the Credit Parties making, and continuing to make, such financial accommodations to the Borrower.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by each Guarantor, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

Section 3. Guaranty Absolute.

(g) any application of sums paid by the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person with respect to the liabilities of the Credit Parties, regardless of what liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid;

(h) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any statute of limitations in any action hereunder or for the collection of the Notes or the Reimbursement Obligations or for the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(j) the dissolution or termination of existence of the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person;

(k) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower or any other Person;

(y) any law, regulation, decree or order of any jurisdiction or any event affecting any provision of the Guaranteed Obligations; or

(z) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any other legal, equitable or surety defenses whatsoever to which the Guarantors might otherwise be entitled or any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a discharge of a Guarantor (other than indefeasible payment in full or as to a Guarantor, a release of such Guarantor pursuant to and as provided in the Credit Agreement or as approved by all of the Lenders), it being the intention that the obligations of Guarantors hereunder are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable.

Exh. C-4

Guarantor enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance with its terms except to the extent that enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and other similar laws affecting creditor’s rights generally and the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of certain obligations (other than the payment of principal) contained herein or therein may be limited by equitable principles generally; and (b) in executing and delivering this Guaranty, the Guarantor has (i) without reliance on the Credit Parties or any information received from the Credit Parties and based upon such documents and information it deems appropriate, made an independent investigation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the Borrower, the Borrower’s business, assets, operations, prospects and condition, financial or otherwise, and any circumstances which may bear upon such transactions, the Borrower or the obligations and risks undertaken

herein with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) adequate means to obtain from the Borrower on a continuing basis information concerning the Borrower; (iii) full and complete access to the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and (iv) not relied and will not rely upon any representations or warranties of the Credit Parties not embodied herein or any acts heretofore or hereafter taken by the Credit Parties (including but not limited to any review by the Credit Parties of the affairs of the Borrower). The REIT Guarantor hereby represents and warrants that the REIT Guarantor is the general partner of the Borrower and owns (directly or indirectly) a substantial amount of the partnership interests in the Borrower and is financially interested in its affairs. All representations and warranties made under this Guaranty shall be deemed to be made at and as of the date of this Guaranty, the Effective Date and the date of the occurrence of any Credit Event, except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and accurate on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances specifically permitted hereunder or under the Credit Agreement.

Section 6. Covenants. Each Guarantor will perform and comply with all covenants applicable to such Guarantor, or which the Borrower is required to cause such Guarantor to comply with under the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as if the same were more fully set forth herein.

Section 7. Waiver. Each Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, hereby waives notice of acceptance hereof or any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, and any other act or thing, or omission or delay to do any other act or thing, which in any manner or to any extent might vary the risk of such Guarantor or which otherwise might operate to discharge such Guarantor from its obligations hereunder. Each Guarantor also waives the right to require the Administrative Agent to proceed first against the Borrower upon the Guaranteed Obligations before proceeding against such Guarantor hereunder.

Section 8. Reinstatement of Guaranteed Obligations. If a claim is ever made on a Credit Party for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and such Credit Party repays all or part of said amount by reason of (a) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, or (b) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such Credit Party with any such claimant (including the Borrower or a trustee in bankruptcy for the Borrower), then and in such event each Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding on it, notwithstanding any revocation hereof, any release herefrom, or the cancellation of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower, this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated and such Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the Credit Parties for the amounts so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been paid to such Credit Party.

Section 9. Avoidance. As of any date of determination, the maximum obligation of each Guarantor shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount of liability which could be asserted against such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Credit Parties) without (i) rendering such Guarantor “insolvent” within the meaning of Section 101(32) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or Section 2 of either the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (the “UFTA”) or the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act (the “UFCA”) or the fraudulent conveyance and transfer laws of the State of New York or such other jurisdiction whose laws shall be determined to apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws”), (ii) leaving such Guarantor with unreasonably small capital, within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA or Section 5 of the UFCA or the Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws, or (iii) leaving such Guarantor unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA or Section 6 of the UFCA or the Applicable State Fraudulent Conveyance Laws. This Section is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Credit Parties hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder to be unenforceable or subject to avoidance, and neither a Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section as against the Credit Parties that would not otherwise be available to such Person.

1/2377699.4

Section 10. No Contest with Credit Parties; Subordination. So long as any Guaranteed Obligation remains unpaid or undischarged, the Guarantors will not, by paying any sum recoverable hereunder (whether or not demanded by any Credit Party) or by any means or on any other ground, claim any setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower in respect of any liability of the Guarantors to the Borrower or, in proceedings under federal bankruptcy law or insolvency proceedings of any nature, prove in competition with any Credit Party in respect of any payment hereunder or be entitled to have the benefit of any counterclaim or proof of claim or dividend or payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or the benefit of any other security for any obligation hereby guaranteed which, now or hereafter, any Credit Party may hold or in which it may have any share. Except as expressly provided in the Contribution Agreement, so long as any Guaranteed Obligation remains unpaid or undischarged, the Guarantors hereby expressly waive any right of contribution from or indemnity against the Borrower, whether at law or in equity, arising from any payments made by Guarantors pursuant to the terms of this Guaranty, and the Guarantors acknowledge that the Guarantors have no right whatsoever to proceed against the Borrower for reimbursement of any such payments. In connection with the foregoing, the Guarantors expressly waive any and all rights of subrogation to the Credit Parties against the Borrower, and the Guarantors hereby waive any rights to enforce any remedy which a Credit Party may have against the Borrower and any rights to participate in any collateral for the Borrower’s obligations under the Loan Documents. The Guarantors hereby subordinate any and all indebtedness of the Borrower now or hereafter owed to the Guarantors to all indebtedness of the Borrower to the Credit Parties, and agree with the Credit Parties that (a) the Guarantors shall not demand or accept any payment from the Borrower on account of such indebtedness, (b) the Guarantors shall not claim any offset or other reduction of the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder because of any such indebtedness, and (c) the Guarantors shall not take any action to obtain any interest in any of the security described in and encumbered by the Loan Documents because of any such indebtedness; provided, however, that, if a Credit Party so requests, such indebtedness shall be collected, enforced and received by the Guarantors as trustee for the Credit Parties and be paid over to the Credit Parties on account of the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Credit Parties, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of the Guarantors under the other provisions of this Guaranty except to the extent the principal amount of such outstanding indebtedness shall have been reduced by such payment.

Section 11. Payments Free and Clear. All sums payable by each Guarantor hereunder, whether of principal, interest, Fees, expenses, premiums or otherwise, shall be paid in full, without set-off or counterclaim or any deduction or withholding whatsoever (including any Taxes), and if any Guarantor is required by Applicable Law or by a Governmental Authority to make any such deduction or withholding, such Guarantor shall pay to the Credit Parties such additional amount as will result in the receipt by the Credit Parties of the full amount payable hereunder had such deduction or withholding not occurred or been required. Whenever any Tax is paid by any Guarantor, as promptly as possible thereafter, such Guarantor shall send the Administrative Agent an official receipt showing payment thereof, together with such additional documentary evidence as may be reasonably required from time to time by the Administrative Agent.

Exh. C-7

1/2377699.4

Section 12. Setoff. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under any of the other Loan Documents or Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, each Guarantor hereby authorizes the Credit Parties, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, without any prior notice to such Guarantor or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of a Credit Party other than the Administrative Agent subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent exercised in its sole discretion, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by such Credit Party or any affiliate of such Credit Party, to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor held at any of the offices of the Administrative Agent, against and on account of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, although such obligations shall be contingent or unmatured. Each Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law that any Participant may exercise rights of setoff or counterclaim and other rights with respect to its participation as fully as if such Participant were a direct creditor of such Guarantor in the amount of such participation. The foregoing shall not apply to any account governed by a written agreement containing an express waiver by such Participant of such Participant’s rights of setoff.

Section 13. Business Failure, Bankruptcy or Insolvency. In the event of the business failure of any Guarantor or if there shall be pending any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding with respect to any Guarantor under federal bankruptcy law or any other applicable law or in connection with the insolvency of any Guarantor, or if a liquidator, receiver, or trustee shall have been appointed for any Guarantor or any Guarantor’s properties or assets, the Credit Parties may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of such Person allowed in any proceedings relative to such Guarantor, or any of such Guarantor’s properties or assets, and, irrespective of whether the indebtedness or other obligations of the Borrower guaranteed hereby shall then be due and payable, by declaration or otherwise, the Credit Parties shall be entitled and empowered to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of any sums or sums owing with respect to the indebtedness or other obligations of the Borrower guaranteed hereby, and to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claim. The Guarantors covenant and agree that upon the commencement of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding by or against the Borrower, the Guarantors shall not seek a supplemental stay or otherwise pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 105 or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”), or any other debtor relief law (whether statutory, common law, case law, or otherwise) of any jurisdiction whatsoever, now or hereafter in effect, which may be or become applicable, to stay, interdict, condition, reduce or inhibit the ability of the Credit Parties to enforce any rights of such Person against Guarantors by virtue of this Guaranty or otherwise. If a Credit Party is prevented under Applicable Law or otherwise from demanding or accelerating payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations by reason of any automatic stay or otherwise, the Credit Parties shall be entitled to receive from each Guarantor, upon demand therefor, the sums which otherwise would have been due had such demand or acceleration occurred.

Section 14. ADDITIONAL GUARANTORS; RELEASE OF GUARANTORS. SECTION 7.12 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT PROVIDES THAT CERTAIN MATERIAL SUBSIDIARIES MUST BECOME GUARANTORS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, EXECUTING AND DELIVERING TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT A JOINDER AGREEMENT. ANY SUBSIDIARY WHICH EXECUTES AND DELIVERS TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT A JOINDER AGREEMENT SHALL BE A GUARANTOR FOR ALL PURPOSES HEREUNDER. UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN SECTION 7.12(B) OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT, CERTAIN SUBSIDIARIES MAY OBTAIN FROM THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT A WRITTEN RELEASE FROM THIS GUARANTY PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF SUCH SECTION, AND UPON OBTAINING SUCH WRITTEN RELEASE, ANY SUCH SUBSIDIARY SHALL NO LONGER BE A GUARANTOR HEREUNDER. EACH OTHER GUARANTOR CONSENTS AND AGREES TO ANY SUCH RELEASE AND AGREES THAT NO SUCH RELEASE SHALL AFFECT ITS OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

Section 15. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and the other Guarantors, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Credit Parties shall have any duty whatsoever to advise any Guarantor of information regarding such circumstances or risks.

Section 16. Governing Law. THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK PURSUANT TO SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY UNCONDITIONALLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM TO ASSERT THAT THE LAW OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION GOVERNS THIS GUARANTY.

Section 17. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL; ETC.

(a) EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY GUARANTOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT PARTY WOULD BE BASED ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND EXPENSE TO THE PARTIES. ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE CREDIT PARTIES AND EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR NATURE IN ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER SUIT, CAUSE OF ACTION OR DISPUTE WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE AGENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT PARTY OF ANY KIND OR NATURE. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE GUARANTOR HAS OR HEREAFTER MAY ACQUIRE ANY IMMUNITY FROM JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT OR FROM ANY LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER FROM SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OF A JUDGMENT, EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE), THE GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS GUARANTY.

Exh. C-9

1/2377699.4

(b) EACH OF THE GUARANTORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND EACH OTHER CREDIT PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY GUARANTOR, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT PARTY, PERTAINING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THIS GUARANTY, THE LOANS, THE LETTERS OF CREDIT, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING HEREFROM OR THEREFROM. EACH GUARANTOR AND EACH CREDIT PARTY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN SUCH COURTS. EACH PARTY FURTHER 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 FORUM AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME. THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT PARTY OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT PARTY OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION.

(c) THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND

THE TERMINATION OF THIS GUARANTY.

Section 18. Loan Accounts. Each Credit Party may maintain books and accounts setting forth the amounts of principal, interest and other sums paid and payable with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and in the case of any dispute relating to any of the outstanding amount, payment or receipt of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, the entries in such books and accounts shall be deemed prima facie evidence of the amounts and other matters set forth herein. The failure of a Credit Party to maintain such books and accounts shall not in any way relieve or discharge any Guarantor of any of its obligations hereunder.

Section 19. Waiver of Remedies. No delay or failure on the part of a Credit Party in the exercise of any right or remedy it may have against any Guarantor hereunder or otherwise shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by a Credit Party of any such right or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right or remedy. The remedies provided in this guaranty are not cumulative.

Section 20. Termination. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until indefeasible payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, the cancellation of all Letters of Credit and the other Obligations and the termination or cancellation of the Credit Agreement in accordance with its terms.

Section 24. Payments. All payments to be made by any Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office, not later than 12:00 p.m. on the date of demand therefore.

Section 25. Expenses.

FORM OF JOINDER AGREEMENT

THIS JOINDER AGREEMENT dated as of ________, 201_, executed and delivered by ______________, a ____________ (the “New Subsidiary”), in favor of (a) Regions Bank, in its capacity as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) for the Lenders (defined below) under that certain Credit Agreement dated September 26, 2012 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) by and among ▇▇▇▇▇ Core Office Income Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”), the financial institutions party thereto and their assignees under Section 12.5 thereof (the “Lenders”), the Administrative Agent, and the other parties thereto, and (b) the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender (the parties described in (a) and (b) above are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Credit Parties”).

WHEREAS, the Borrower or its .01% general partner owns, directly or indirectly, at least a majority of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests in the New Subsidiary;

WHEREAS, the Borrower, the New Subsidiary, and the existing Guarantors, though separate legal entities, are mutually dependent upon each other in the conduct of their respective businesses as an integrated operation and have determined it to be in their mutual best interests to obtain financing from the Credit Parties through their collective efforts;

WHEREAS, the New Subsidiary acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the Credit Parties making such financial accommodations available to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and, accordingly, the New Subsidiary is willing to guarantee the Borrower's obligations to the Credit Parties on the terms and conditions contained herein; and

WHEREAS, the New Subsidiary's execution and delivery of this Agreement is a condition to the Credit Parties continuing to make such financial accommodations to the Borrower.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by the New Subsidiary, the New Subsidiary agrees as follows:
