Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) to the Payment Office. Upon receipt of all funds, the Administrative Agent shall make such Loans available to the Borrowers by wire transferring the amounts so received, in like funds, as directed by the Borrowers in the applicable Notice of Borrowing.

(ii)            Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and in order to reduce the number of fund transfers among the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders, the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders agree that the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), and the Borrowers and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to, fund, on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders, Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.01, subject to the procedures for settlement set forth in Section 2.02(c); provided, however, that (A) the Administrative Agent shall in no event fund any such Revolving Loans if the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Collateral Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders prior to the making of the proposed Revolving Loan that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 5.03 will not be satisfied at the time of the proposed Revolving Loan, and (B) the Administrative Agent shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent in Section 5.03 have been satisfied. If the Administrative Borrower gives a Notice of Borrowing requesting a Revolving Loan and the Administrative Agent elects not to fund such Revolving Loan on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders, then promptly after receipt of the Notice of Borrowing requesting such Revolving Loan, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Loan Lender of the specifics of the requested Revolving Loan and that it will not fund the requested Revolving Loan on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders. If the Administrative Agent notifies the Revolving Loan Lenders that it will not fund a requested Revolving Loan on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders, each Revolving Loan Lender shall make its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan available to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, in the Administrative Agent’s Accounts no later than 3:00 p.m. (New York City time) (provided that the Administrative Agent requests payment from such Revolving Loan Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time)) on the date of the proposed Revolving Loan. The Administrative Agent will make the proceeds of such Revolving Loans available to the Borrowers on the day of the proposed Revolving Loan by causing an amount, in immediately available funds, equal to the proceeds of all such Revolving Loans received by the Administrative Agent in the Administrative Agent’s Accounts or the amount funded by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders to be deposited in an account designated by the Administrative Borrower.

(iii)            If the Administrative Agent has notified the Revolving Loan Lenders that the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders, will not fund a particular Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 2.02(b)(ii), the Administrative Agent may assume that each such Revolving Loan Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such day and the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, cause a corresponding amount to be made available to the Borrowers on such day. If the Administrative Agent makes such corresponding amount available to the Borrowers and such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Servicing Agent by any such Revolving Loan Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Revolving Loan Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for 3 Business Days and thereafter at the Reference Rate. During the period in which such Revolving Loan Lender has not paid such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the amount so advanced by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers shall, for all purposes hereof, be a Revolving Loan made by the Administrative Agent for its own account. Upon any such failure by a Revolving Loan Lender to pay the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Administrative Borrower of such failure and the Borrowers shall promptly, but in any event within one Business Day, pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent for its own account.

(iv)            Nothing in this Section 2.02(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Revolving Loan Lender from its obligations to fulfill its Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may have against any Revolving Loan Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Loan Lender hereunder.

(c)      (i)      With respect to all periods for which the Administrative Agent has funded Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.02(b), on the last Business Day of each week during which the Administrative Agent has funded such Revolving Loans, or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may from time to time select (any such week or shorter period being herein called a “Settlement Period”), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Loan Lender of the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans outstanding as of the last day of each such Settlement Period. In the event that such amount is greater than the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans outstanding on the last day of the Settlement Period immediately preceding such Settlement Period (or, if there has been no preceding Settlement Period, the amount of the Revolving Loans made on the date of such Revolving Loan Lender’s initial funding), each Revolving Loan Lender shall promptly (and in any event not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) if the Administrative Agent requests payment from such Lender not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on such day) make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the difference in immediately available funds. In the event that such amount is less than such unpaid principal amount, the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay over to each Revolving Loan Lender its Pro Rata Share of the difference in immediately available funds. In addition, if the Administrative Agent shall so request at any time when a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, or any other event shall have occurred as a result of which the Administrative Agent shall determine that it is desirable to present claims against the Borrowers for repayment, each Revolving Loan Lender shall promptly remit to the Administrative Agent or, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to each Revolving Loan Lender, sufficient funds to adjust the interests of the Revolving Loan Lenders in the then outstanding Revolving Loans to such an extent that, after giving effect to such adjustment, each such Revolving Loan Lender’s interest in the then outstanding Revolving Loans will be equal to its Pro Rata Share thereof. The obligations of the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Loan Lender under this Section 2.02(c) shall be absolute and unconditional. Each Revolving Loan Lender shall only be entitled to receive interest on its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans which have been funded by such Revolving Loan Lender.

(ii)            In the event that any Revolving Loan Lender fails to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(c)(i), the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Revolving Loan Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for 3 Business Days and thereafter at the Reference Rate. During the period in which such Revolving Loan Lender has not paid such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the amount so advanced by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers shall, for all purposes hereof, be a Revolving Loan made by the Administrative Agent for its own account. Upon any such failure by a Revolving Loan Lender to pay the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify the Administrative Borrower of such failure and the Borrowers shall promptly, but in any event within one Business Day, pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent for its own account. Nothing in this Section 2.02(c)(ii) shall be deemed to relieve any Revolving Loan Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers may have against any Revolving Loan Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Loan Lender hereunder.

Section 2.03      Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a)            The outstanding principal of all Revolving Loans shall be due and payable on the Final Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which they are declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b)            (i) The outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan A shall be repayable on the following dates and in the following amounts (in the aggregate and applied on a ratable basis to each Term Loan A Lender) set forth opposite such dates:

Date	Amount
September 30, 2025	$	95,000.00
December 31, 2025 and on the last day of each Fiscal Quarter thereafter	$	75,000.00

(ii) The outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan B shall be repayable on the following dates and in the following amounts (in the aggregate and applied on a ratable basis to each Term Loan B Lender) set forth opposite such dates:

Date	Amount
September 30, 2025	$	380,000.00
December 31, 2025 and on the last day of each Fiscal Quarter thereafter	$	300,000.00

(iii) The Borrower hereby unconditionally agrees to repay the outstanding principal amount of the Delayed Draw Term Loans to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Term Lender (A) on the last day of each Fiscal Quarter, in each case in an amount equal to 0.25% of the sum of the initial aggregate principal amounts of the Delayed Draw Term Loans funded prior to such date.

; provided, however, if such day shall not fall on a Business Day, such installment shall be paid on the preceding Business Day. The outstanding unpaid principal amount of Term Loan A, Term Loan B, and Delayed Draw Term Loan, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on the earliest of (i) the termination of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, (ii) the Final Maturity Date and (iii) the date on which the Term Loan is declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(c)            Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrowers to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such ▇▇▇▇▇▇, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(d)            The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrowers to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s share thereof.

(e)            Absent manifest error, the entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.03(c) or Section 2.03(d) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that (i) the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) in the event of any conflict between the entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.03(c) and the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.03(d), the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.03(d) shall govern and control.

(f)            Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrowers shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 12.07) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

Section 2.04      Interest.

(a)            Revolving Loans. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, at the option of the Administrative Borrower, each Revolving Loan shall be either a Reference Rate Loan or a SOFR Loan. Each Revolving Loan that is a Reference Rate Loan shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date of such Loan until repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the Reference Rate plus the Applicable Margin. Each Revolving Loan that is a SOFR Loan shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date of such Loan until repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Loan plus the Applicable Margin.

(b)            Term Loan. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, at the option of the Administrative Borrower, the Term Loan (including, without limitation, the Term Loan PIK Amount related thereto with respect to the Term Loan, and any Revolving PIK Amount) or any portion thereof shall be either a Reference Rate Loan or a SOFR Loan. Each portion of the Term Loan that is a Reference Rate Loan shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date of the Term Loan until repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the Reference Rate plus the Applicable Margin, and each portion of the Term Loan that is a SOFR Loan shall bear interest on the principal amount thereof from time to time outstanding, from the date of the Term Loan until repaid, at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR rate for the Interest Period in effect for the Term Loan (or such portion thereof) plus the Applicable Margin.

(c)            Default Interest. To the extent permitted by law and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the election of the Required Lenders (which election shall not be required in connection with any Event of Default arising with respect to a Loan Party under Section 9.01(f) or (g), in which case, the Post-Default Rate shall automatically and immediately be in effect), the principal (including the Term Loan PIK Amount and the Revolving PIK Amount) of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all Loans, fees, indemnities or any other Obligations of the Loan Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall bear interest, from the date such Event of Default occurred until the date such Event of Default is waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, at a rate per annum equal at all times to the Post- Default Rate.

(d)            Interest Payment. Interest (other than the Term Loan PIK Amount and the Revolving PIK Amount, which in each case shall be capitalized in accordance with the proviso below) on each Loan shall be payable (i) in cash, in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, and (ii) at maturity (whether upon demand, by acceleration or otherwise); provided that, in the event that the Administrative Borrower shall have delivered a PIK Notice to the Administrative Agent electing to pay a portion of the interest in kind (such election, a “PIK Election”), then a portion of the interest accruing on any Term Loan or Revolving Loan, as applicable, at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable PIK Amount shall be paid by capitalizing such interest and adding such capitalized interest to the then outstanding principal amount of the applicable Term Loan, in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement Among Lenders. Any interest to be so capitalized pursuant to this clause (d) shall be capitalized on the applicable interest payment date, shall be added to the then outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement Among Lenders, and shall bear interest as provided hereunder as if it had originally been part of the outstanding principal of the Term Loan; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no portion of the Revolving PIK Amount shall be deemed to reduce the availability of the Revolving Credit Commitment or deemed to be a utilization thereof. In the event that the Administrative Borrower elects to exercise the PIK Election, it shall deliver a PIK Notice to the Administrative Agent no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date specifying the Applicable PIK Amount that the Administrative Borrower is electing (such notice, a “PIK Notice”). Interest at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable on demand.

(e)            General. All interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days, including the first day but excluding the last day, elapsed.

(f)            At the election of the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders, when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each SOFR Loan shall be converted to a Reference Rate Loan.

(g)            In connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR, Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use or administration of Term SOFR.

(h)            By entering into this Agreement, the parties hereto have assumed in bona fide that any fees or interest payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is not and will not become subject to any tax deduction on account of Swiss Withholding Tax. Nevertheless, if a tax deduction is required by Swiss law to be made by a Loan Party in respect of any fee or interest payable by it hereunder or any other Loan Document and should it be unlawful for such Loan Party to comply with Section 2.09(a) or Section 2.09(c) for any reason (where this would otherwise be required by the terms of Section 2.09(a) or Section 2.09(c)) then:

(i)             the applicable interest rate in relation to that interest or fee payment shall be:

(A)            the interest rate which would have applied to that interest or fee payment (as provided for in this Section 2.04 in the absence of this Section 2.04(h), divided by

(B)            one (1) minus the rate at which the relevant tax deduction is required to be made (where the rate at which the relevant tax deduction is required to be made is for this purpose expressed as a fraction of one rather than as a percentage); and

(ii)            the relevant Loan Party shall be required to:

(A)            pay the relevant fee or interest at the adjusted rate in accordance with paragraph (i) above

(B)            make the tax deduction on the interest as so recalculated; and

(C)            all references to a rate of interest in this Section 2.04 or otherwise in this Agreement shall be construed accordingly.

To the extent that any fee or interest payable by a Loan Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document becomes subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, each relevant Recipient and the relevant Loan Party shall cooperate by completing any procedural formalities (including submitting forms and documents required by the appropriate tax authority) to the extent possible and necessary for that Loan Party to obtain authorization to make interest or fee payments without them being subject to Swiss Withholding Tax or to being subject to Swiss Withholding Tax at a rate reduced under applicable double taxation treaties.

Section 2.05      Reduction of Commitment; Prepayment of Loans.

(a)            Reduction of Commitments.

(i)              Revolving Credit Commitments. The Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall terminate on the Final Maturity Date. The Borrowers may reduce the Total Revolving Credit Commitment in whole (solely to the extent the Obligations in respect of the Term Loan A are repaid in full contemporaneously therewith) or in part to an amount not less than the greater of (1) $15,000,000 and (2) the sum of (A) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans then outstanding, and (B) the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans not yet made as to which a Notice of Borrowing has been given by the Administrative Borrower under Section 2.02. Each such reduction shall be (1) in an amount which is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 (or, as applicable, by the full amount of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment in effect immediately prior to such reduction if such amount at that time is less than $1,000,000), (2) made by providing not less than 5 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Servicing Agent, (3) irrevocable and (4) accompanied by the payment of the Applicable Premium, if any, payable in connection with such reduction of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Once reduced, the Total Revolving Credit Commitment may not be increased. Each such reduction of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall reduce the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Lender proportionately in accordance with its Pro Rata Share thereof.

(ii)             Term Loan. The (x) Term Loan A Commitment shall terminate at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Effective Date (or, if earlier, at the time of funding of the Term Loan A on the Effective Date), (y) Term Loan B Commitment shall terminate at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Effective Date (or, if earlier, at the time of funding of the Term Loan B on the Effective Date) and (z) the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments shall automatically terminate (1) upon the making of the Delayed Draw Term Loan, but solely to the extent of such advanced Delayed Draw Term Loan and (2) with respect to the remainder (if any), on the Delayed Draw Commitment Termination Date.

(iii)            Upon delivering the notice required by Section 2.05(a)(iv), the Borrower may at any time terminate or from time to time reduce the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments; provided that each reduction of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000.

(iv)            The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments under paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section (as selected by the Borrower) not later than 1:00 p.m. on or prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction (or not later than 1:00 p.m., three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, in the case of a termination or reduction involving a prepayment of SOFR Loans (or such later date to which the Administrative Agent may agree)), specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Delayed Draw Term Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that any such notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked or its effectiveness deferred by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of any Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) shall be permanent. Upon any reduction of any Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment, the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment of each Delayed Draw Term Lender shall be reduced by such Delayed Draw Term Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such reduction amount

(b)            Optional Prepayment.

(i)            Revolving Loans. The Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time, upon at least two Business Days prior written notice before 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) (with a copy of such notice to the Servicing Agent), prepay the principal of any Revolving Loan, in whole or in part. Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(i) in connection with a reduction of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(i) above shall be accompanied by the payment of the Applicable Premium, if any, payable in connection with such reduction of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment.

(ii)            Term Loan. The Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time, upon at least five Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Servicing Agent (or such shorter period as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), prepay the principal of the Term Loan, in whole or in part. Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii) shall be accompanied by the payment of (A) accrued interest to the date of such payment on the amount prepaid and (B) the Applicable Premium, if any, payable in connection with such prepayment of the Term Loan. Each such prepayment shall be applied against the remaining installments of principal due on the Term Loan (including the final installment of principal due on the Term Loan on the Maturity Date), ratably to the Term Loan A, Term Loan B, and Delayed Draw Term Loan, until Paid in Full. Any such notice provided under this section may be conditioned upon the occurrence of an event or refinancing, in which case, such notice may be rescinded by the Borrower in writing if such event or refinancing does not occur prior to the date of prepayment in such notice.

(iii)            Termination of Agreement. The Borrowers may, upon at least 10 Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Servicing Agent, terminate this Agreement by paying to the Administrative Agent, in cash, the Obligations in full, plus the Applicable Premium, if any, payable in connection with such termination of this Agreement; provided that a notice of termination under this Section 2.05(b) may state that such notice is conditional upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, the receipt of proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or equity or consummation of an asset sale or occurrence of any other event in which case such notice of termination may be postponed or rescinded by the Borrowers in writing if any such condition is not satisfied prior to the date of termination of this Agreement in such notice.

(i)             Within 5 Business Days of the delivery to the Agents and the Lenders of audited annual financial statements pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(iii), commencing with the delivery to the Agents and the Lenders of the financial statements for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2026 or, if such financial statements are not delivered to the Agents and the Lenders on the date such statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(iii), within 5 Business Days after the date such statements are required to be delivered to the Agents and the Lenders pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(iii), the Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan A, Term Loan B and Delayed Draw Term Loan in accordance with Section 2.05(d) in an amount equal to the result of (to the extent positive) (1) (x) if the Total Leverage Ratio of the Administrative Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the applicable Fiscal Year is greater than 4.00 to 1.00, 50% of the Excess Cash Flow of the Administrative Borrower and its Subsidiaries for such Fiscal Year and (y) if the Total Leverage Ratio of the Administrative Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the applicable Fiscal Year is less than or equal to 4.00 to 1.00, 25% of the Excess Cash Flow of the Administrative Borrower and its Subsidiaries for such Fiscal Year minus (2) the aggregate principal amount of all payments made by the Borrowers pursuant to Sections 2.05(b)(i) (to the extent that the Total Revolving Credit Commitment is permanently reduced by the amount of such payments) and Section 2.05(b)(ii) for such Fiscal Year or after such Fiscal Year but prior to such payment date.

(ii)            Within 5 Business Days of the receipt by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries of the Net Cash Proceeds from any Disposition (excluding Dispositions which qualify as Permitted Dispositions under clauses (a), (b), (c), (d), (g), (h), (i), (j), (l), or (m) of the definition of Permitted Disposition) or Sale and Leaseback Transaction by any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries, the Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.05(d) in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by such Person in connection with such Disposition or Sale and Leaseback Transaction to the extent that the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds received by all Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries shall exceed for all such Dispositions and Sale and Leaseback Transactions $5,000,000 in any Fiscal Year (it being understood and agreed any prepayment of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be inclusive of this threshold amount each Fiscal Year once exceeded). Nothing contained in this Section 2.05(c)(ii) shall permit any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries to make a Disposition of any property other than in accordance with Section 7.02(c)(ii) or a Sale and Leaseback Transaction with respect to any property other than in accordance with Section 7.02(f).

(iii)            Within 5 Business Days of the issuance or incurrence by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries of any Indebtedness (other than Permitted Indebtedness), the Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding amount of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.05(d) in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received by such Person in connection therewith. The provisions of this Section 2.05(c)(iii) shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such issuance or incurrence otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(iv)            Within 5 Business Days of the receipt by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries of any Extraordinary Receipts in excess of $1,250,000 in the aggregate in any Fiscal Year, the Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.05(d) in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds (it being understood and agreed any prepayment of such Net Cash Proceeds shall be inclusive of this threshold amount each Fiscal Year once exceeded) received by such Person in connection with such Extraordinary Receipts.

(v)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to Net Cash Proceeds received by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with (1) a Disposition (other than pursuant to clause (h) of the definition of “Permitted Disposition”) or the receipt of Extraordinary Receipts consisting of insurance proceeds or condemnation awards that are required to be used to prepay the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(ii) or Section 2.05(c)(iv), as the case may be, and (2) a Disposition pursuant to clause (h) of the definition of “Permitted Disposition”, the Net Cash Proceeds from such Dispositions and such Extraordinary Receipts shall not be required to be so used to prepay the Obligations to the extent that such Net Cash Proceeds are used to replace, repair, restore or otherwise acquire properties or assets (other than current assets) used or useful in such Person’s business; provided that, (A) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date such Person receives such Net Cash Proceeds, (B) the Administrative Borrower delivers a notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds stating that such Net Cash Proceeds are intended or expected to be used to replace, repair, restore or otherwise acquire properties or assets used or useful in such Person’s business within a period specified in such certificate not to exceed 180 days (or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) and (C) upon the expiration of the period specified in the relevant notice furnished to the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (B) above (or, if a commitment to replace, repair, restore or otherwise acquire properties or assets has been entered into prior to the expiration of such period, then the expiration of the 180 day period following the expiration of such period), such Net Cash Proceeds, if not theretofore so used, shall be used to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.05(c)(ii) or Section 2.05(c)(iv) as applicable; provided further that the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds reinvested pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(v)(1) shall not exceed $5,000,000 in any Fiscal Year, and the aggregate amount of Net Cash Proceeds reinvested pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(v)(2) shall not exceed $5,000,000 in any Fiscal Year.

(vi)            To the extent any Exchange (as defined in each Exchange Agreement) under an Exchange Agreement is not consummated on or prior to the date that is twelve (12) Business Days (such twelfth (12th) Business Day, the “Exchange Agreement Deadline”) following the Effective Date and failure to consummate one or more Exchanges (as defined in each Exchange Agreement) causes the Exchange Threshold Amount to be positive, the Administrative Borrower shall promptly (and, in any event, within one (1) Business Day following the Exchange Agreement Deadline) prepay the Loans, in Dollars equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the Loans that were to be used to consummate such Exchange pursuant to an Exchange Agreement that was not consummated on or prior to the Exchange Agreement Deadline; provided, however, that the Administrative Borrower shall not be required to prepay Loans in excess of an amount that would cause the Exchange Threshold Amount to be less than zero; provided further, that if any such prepayment is required pursuant to this Section 2.05(c)(vi), the Administrative Agent is authorized and instructed to withdraw amounts on deposit in the Escrow Account in accordance with the Escrow Agreement to effectuate such prepayment.

(vii)          Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.05(c), (A) to the extent that any amount that would otherwise be required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(i), Section 2.05(c)(ii) or Section 2.05(c)(iv) (collectively, the “Subject Proceeds”) is generated by an Excluded Subsidiary and is prohibited, delayed or restricted by (1) applicable local Requirements of Law or (2) the Governing Documents of such Excluded Subsidiary from being repatriated to the Borrowers, an amount equal to the portion of such Subject Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to repay the Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.05(c) but may be retained by such Excluded Subsidiary; provided that, if (x) the applicable local Requirements of Law cease to prohibit repatriation to the Borrowers, as determined by the Administrative Borrower in good faith following consultation with the Administrative Agent (the Borrowers hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Excluded Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local Requirements of Law to permit such repatriation) or (y) the Governing Documents of such Excluded Subsidiary cease to prohibit such repatriation (the Borrowers hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Excluded Subsidiary to amend its Governing Documents to permit such repatriation to the Borrowers), in each case, within 365 days following the date such Excess Cash Flow prepayment is required to be made or such Net Cash Proceeds are received, such repatriation will thereafter be promptly effected and an amount equal to such Subject Proceeds will be promptly (and in any event not later than 2 Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against, and additional costs incurred, as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) to the extent provided herein and (B) to the extent that the Administrative Borrower has reasonably determined in good faith, in consultation with the Administrative Agent, that repatriation of, or the obligation to repatriate, any Subject Proceeds attributable to any Excluded Subsidiary would have material adverse tax consequences to the Administrative Borrower or such owners that are Loan Parties or are part of a tax consolidated group with the Loan Parties, and its Subsidiaries, such Subject Proceeds will not be required to be applied to repay the Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.05(c) but may be retained by such Excluded Subsidiary until such time as it may repatriate such amount without incurring such material adverse tax consequences to the Administrative Borrower or its direct or indirect equityholders, and its Subsidiaries (at which time the Borrowers shall make a payment to repay the Loans to the extent provided herein).

(viii)          The Administrative Borrower shall provide at least 5 Business Days prior written notice before 11:00 a.m. New York time to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) with respect to any prepayment expected to be made pursuant to this Section 2.05(c) (other than clause (c)(ix)) (any such notice, a “Notice of Prepayment”).

(ix)            The Borrowers will promptly prepay the Revolving Loans at any time when the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans exceeds the Borrowing Base, to the full extent of any such excess.

(x)            Immediately upon receipt by the Borrowers of the proceeds received by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with a sale of Accounts to a third party through factoring or another bulk sale thereof, the Borrowers shall prepay the outstanding principal of the Revolving Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds but solely to the extent the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans outstanding at such time exceeds the Borrowing Base in effect at such time based upon the most recently delivered Borrowing Base Certificate after giving effect to the sale of such Accounts.

(d)            Application of Payments. Each prepayment pursuant to subsection (c) (other than subsections (c)(ix) and (x)) above shall be applied, first, ratably to the Term Loans, until paid in full, and second, to the Revolving Loans, until paid in full. Each such prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied against the remaining installments of principal of such Loan beginning with the latest occurring installment and thereafter in inverse order of maturity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, if the Administrative Agent has elected, or has been directed by the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders, to apply payments in respect of any Obligations in accordance with Section 4.03(b), prepayments required under Section 2.05(c) shall be applied in the manner set forth in Section 4.03(b).

(e)            Interest and Fees. Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be accompanied by (i) accrued interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of prepayment, (ii) any Funding Losses payable pursuant to Section 2.08 and (iii) the Applicable Premium, if any, payable in connection with such prepayment of the Loans to the extent required under Section 2.06(a).

(f)             Cumulative Prepayments. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.05, payments with respect to any subsection of this Section 2.05 are in addition to payments made or required to be made under any other subsection of this Section 2.05.

(g)            Declining Lenders. Each Lender may reject all or part of its applicable share of any mandatory prepayment (such declined amounts, the “Initial Declined Proceeds”) of Loans required to be made pursuant to Section 2.05(c) by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent no later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, 3 Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment as set forth in the applicable Notice of Prepayment (any such Lender, a “Declining Lender”); provided, that, if a Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above, such failure will be deemed an acceptance by such Lender of the total amount of such mandatory prepayment of the Loans. If there are any Initial Declined Proceeds, the Administrative Agent shall then provide written notice (the “Second Offer”) to the Lenders other than the Declining Lenders (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) of the additional amount available (due to such Declining Lenders’ declining such prepayment) to prepay the Loans owing to such Accepting Lenders, with such available amount to be allocated on a pro rata basis among the Accepting Lenders that accept the Second Offer. Any Lenders declining prepayment pursuant to such Second Offer shall give written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent by 4:00 p.m. New York City time no later than one Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment as set forth in the applicable Notice of Prepayment; provided, that, if a Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above, such failure will be deemed a rejection of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s pro rata share of the Second Offer. The Borrowers shall prepay the applicable Loans by 12:00 (noon) New York City time on the prepayment date set forth in the applicable Notice of Prepayment. Amounts remaining after the allocation to the Accepting Lenders as set forth above may be retained by the Borrowers.

Section 2.06      Fees.

(a)            Applicable Premium.

(i)            Upon any voluntary permanent reduction of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(i) , or in the event that all or any portion any of the Term Loans is repaid or prepaid for any reason (including as a result of any mandatory prepayments, voluntary prepayments, payments made following acceleration of the Term Loans or after an Event of Default but excluding payments of the purchase price in connection with an assignment of the Loans or Commitments made pursuant to Section 12.02(c)) prior to the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date (each an “Applicable Premium Trigger Event”), such reduction, repayments or prepayments will be made together with a premium equal to (A) 2.00% of the amount reduced, repaid or prepaid and accompanied by the Make-Whole Amount as of the date of such reduction, repayment or prepayment, if such reduction, repayment or prepayment occurs on or prior to the second anniversary of the Effective Date, (B) 2.00% of the amount reduced, repaid or prepaid, if such reduction, repayment or prepayment occurs after the second anniversary of the Effective Date but on or prior to the third anniversary of the Effective Date, (C) 1.00% of the amount reduced, repaid or prepaid, if such reduction, repayment or prepayment occurs after the third anniversary of the Effective Date, but on or prior to the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date, and (D) 0% of the amount reduced, repaid or prepaid, if such reduction, repayment or prepayment occurs after the fourth anniversary of the Effective Date (the foregoing premiums (including the Make-Whole Amount), the “Applicable Premium”); provided that (1) the Applicable Premium shall not apply to (x) scheduled amortization Installment payments made by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.03 and (y) mandatory prepayments by Borrower pursuant to Sections 2.05(c)(i) and 2.05(c)(iv), (2) in case of any prepayment or repayment of Term Loans in a principal amount not to exceed $40,000,000 made in connection with a Change of Control occurring (x) on or before the 12-month anniversary of the Effective Date, such Applicable Premium shall be 1.00% of the Term Loans subject to such prepayment or repayment and (y) thereafter, such Applicable Premium shall be 0% and (3) with respect to the Delayed Draw Term Loans only, each reference to the Effective Date in this Section 2.06(a) shall be deemed to be a reference to the Delayed Draw Borrowing Date. If the Term Loans are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to their maturity date or the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated, in each case, as a result of an Event of Default (including upon the occurrence of a bankruptcy or insolvency event (including the acceleration of claims by operation of law)), the amount of principal of and premium on the Term Loans that becomes due and payable or the amount of Revolving Credit Commitments so terminated, shall equal 100% of the principal amount of such Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments (as the case may be) plus the Applicable Premium in effect on the date of such acceleration or such other prior due date, as if such acceleration or other occurrence were a voluntary prepayment of such Term Loans accelerated or otherwise becoming due or as a permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that if the Term Loans are accelerated or otherwise become due prior to their maturity date or the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated, in each case, in respect of any Event of Default (including upon the occurrence of a bankruptcy or insolvency event (including the acceleration of claims by operation of law)), the Applicable Premium applicable with respect to a voluntary prepayment of Term Loans or reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments will also be due and payable on the date of such acceleration or such other prior due date as though the Term Loans were voluntarily prepaid or the Revolving Credit Commitments were voluntarily terminated as of such date and shall constitute part of the Obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Lender’s loss as a result thereof.

(ii)            Any Applicable Premium payable in accordance with this Section 2.06(a) shall be presumed to be equal to the liquidated damages sustained by the Lenders as the result of the occurrence of the Applicable Premium Trigger Event and the Loan Parties agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. THE LOAN PARTIES EXPRESSLY WAIVE (TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE FOREGOING APPLICABLE PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACCELERATION.

(iii)            The Loan Parties expressly agree that: (A) the Applicable Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Applicable Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Lenders and the Loan Parties giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Applicable Premium; (D) the Loan Parties shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph; (E) their agreement to pay the Applicable Premium is a material inducement to Lenders to provide the Commitments and make the Loans, and (F) the Applicable Premium represents a good faith, reasonable estimate and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Lenders and that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual amount of damages to the Agents and the Lenders or profits lost by the Agents and the Lenders as a result of the applicable reduction, repayment or prepayment .

(iv)            Nothing contained in this Section 2.06(a) shall permit any prepayment of the Loans or reduction of the Commitments not otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b)            [Reserved].

(c)            Fee Letters. As and when due and payable under the terms of the Fee Letters, the Borrowers shall pay the fees set forth in the Fee Letters.

(d)            Unused Line Fee. From and after the Effective Date and until the Termination Date, the Borrowers shall pay to the Servicing Agent for the account of the Revolving Loan Lenders, in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, monthly in arrears on the first Business Day of each month, an unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”), which shall accrue at the rate per annum of 0.50% on the excess, if any, of the Total Revolving Credit Commitment over the sum of the average principal amount of all Revolving Loans outstanding from time to time during the preceding month.

Section 2.07      SOFR Option; Suspension of SOFR Option; Benchmark Transition.

(a)            The Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, elect to have interest on all or a portion of the Loans be charged at a rate of interest based upon Adjusted Term SOFR (the “SOFR Option”) by notifying the Administrative Agent and the Servicing Agent (with respect to Revolving Loans) prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least 3 U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to (i) the proposed borrowing date of a Loan (as provided Section 2.02), (ii) in the case of the conversion of a Reference Rate Loan to a SOFR Loan, the commencement of the proposed Interest Period or (iii) in the case of the continuation of a SOFR Loan as a SOFR Loan, the last day of the then current Interest Period (the “SOFR Deadline”). Notice of the Borrowers’ election of the SOFR Option for a permitted portion of the Loans and an Interest Period pursuant to this Section 2.07(a) shall be made by delivery to the Administrative Agent and the Servicing Agent (with respect to Revolving Loans) of (A) a Notice of Borrowing (in the case of the initial making of a Loan) in accordance with Section 2.02. or (B) a SOFR Notice prior to the SOFR Deadline (by delivery to the Administrative Agent and the Servicing Agent (with respect to Revolving Loans) of a SOFR Notice received by the Administrative Agent prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the same day)). Promptly upon its receipt of each such SOFR Notice, the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy thereof to each of the Lenders. Each SOFR Notice shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers.

(b)            Interest on SOFR Loans shall be payable in accordance with Section 2.04(d). On the last day of each applicable Interest Period, unless the Borrowers properly have exercised the SOFR Option with respect thereto, the interest rate applicable to such SOFR Loans automatically shall convert to the rate of interest then applicable to Reference Rate Loans of the same type hereunder. At any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers no longer shall have the option to request that any portion of the Loans bear interest at the SOFR Loan and the Administrative Agent shall have the right to convert the interest rate on all outstanding SOFR Loans to the rate of interest then applicable to Reference Rate Loans of the same type hereunder on the last day of the then current Interest Period.

(c)             Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrowers (i) shall have not more than 5 SOFR Loans (or such greater amount as the Administrative Agent may agree) in effect at any given time, and (ii) only may exercise the SOFR Option for SOFR Loans of at least $500,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof.

(d)            The Borrowers may prepay SOFR Loans at any time; provided, however, that in the event that SOFR Loans are prepaid on any date that is not the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, including as a result of any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.05(c) or any application of payments or proceeds of Collateral in accordance with Section 4.03 or Section 4.04 or for any other reason, including early termination of the term of this Agreement or acceleration of all or any portion of the Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof, the Borrowers shall indemnify, defend, and hold the Agents and the Lenders and their participants harmless against any and all Funding Losses in accordance with Section 2.08.

(e)            [Reserved].

(f)            [Reserved].

(g)            If Administrative Agent shall have determined in good faith that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Loan or that the Adjusted Term SOFR rate applicable pursuant to Section 2.04 for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding or maintaining such Loan, Administrative Agent will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain SOFR Loans hereunder shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or, in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing, the affected Interest Periods) until Administrative Agent revokes such notice in writing. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or notice of conversion or continuation of SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected SOFR Loans or, in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing, the affected Interest Periods) then submitted by it. If the Borrower does not revoke such notice, the Lenders shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as proposed by the Borrower, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by the Borrower, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Reference Rate Loans immediately or, in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing, at the end of the applicable Interest Period.

(h)            Benchmark Replacement Setting. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document:

(i)            Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the then-current Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 4:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth (5th) U.S. Government Securities Business Day after Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and the Borrower so long as Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.07(h)(i) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. For the avoidance of doubt, no Hedging Agreement shall be deemed to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 2.07.

(ii)            Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(iii)            Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (B) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower of the commencement of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.07, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.07.

(iv)            [reserved].

(v)            Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, Borrower may revoke any request for an advance of a SOFR Borrowing, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Reference Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period, the component of Reference Rate based upon the Adjusted Term SOFR will not be used in any determination of the Reference Rate.

(i)            Illegality.

(i)            If after the Effective Date, any Lender shall determine that the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to make SOFR Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through Administrative Agent, the obligation of that Lender to make SOFR Loans shall be suspended until such Lender shall have notified Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exists.

(ii)            Subject to clause (iii) below, if any Lender shall determine that it is unlawful to maintain any SOFR Loan, the Borrower shall prepay in full all SOFR Loans of such Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, either on the last day of the Interest Period, as applicable, thereof if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Loans, together with any amounts required to be paid hereunder.

(iii)            If the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain SOFR Loans has become unlawful, instead of prepaying outstanding SOFR Loans in full as provided in clause (ii) above, the Borrower may elect, by giving notice to such Lender through Administrative Agent, that all Loans which would otherwise be made or continued by any such Lender as SOFR Loans shall be instead made or converted to Reference Rate Loans.

(iv)            Before giving any notice to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.07(i), the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its SOFR Loans if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of the Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to the Lender.

(j)            Reserves on SOFR Loans. The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Federal Reserve Board to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including SOFR funds or deposits, additional costs on the unpaid principal amount of each SOFR Loan equal to actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan provided the Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice (with a copy to Administrative Agent and Servicing Agent) of such additional interest from the Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.07(j), Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.07(j) for any additional interest incurred, or relating to Loans made, more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the requirement to pay such additional interest (except that, if the requirements under the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board giving rise to such additional interest is retroactive, then the nine (9) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 2.08       Funding Losses. In connection with each SOFR Loan, the Borrowers shall indemnify, defend, and hold the Agents and the Lenders harmless against any loss, cost, or expense (but excluding any loss of profit) incurred by any Agent or any Lender as a result of (a) the payment of any principal of any SOFR Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or any mandatory prepayment required pursuant to Section 2.05(c)), (b) the conversion of any SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), or (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any SOFR Loan on the date specified in any Notice of Borrowing or SOFR Notice delivered pursuant hereto (such losses, costs, and expenses, collectively, “Funding Losses”). Funding Losses shall, with respect to any Agent or any Lender, be deemed to equal the amount reasonably determined by such Agent or such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such SOFR Loan had such event not occurred, at the SOFR rate that would have been applicable thereto, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period therefor), minus (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Agent or such Lender would be offered were it to be offered, at the commencement of such period, Dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period in the London interbank market. A certificate of an Agent or a Lender delivered to the Administrative Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Agent or such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.09           Taxes.

(a)            Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any and all Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of any Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Taxes from or in respect of any such payment, (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deduction or withholding, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased by the amount (an “Additional Amount”) necessary such that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.09) the applicable Recipient receives the amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b)            In addition, each Loan Party shall pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of any Other Taxes by any Secured Party. Each Loan Party shall deliver to each Secured Party official receipts in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes payable hereunder, or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, promptly after payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes.

(c)            The Loan Parties hereby jointly and severally indemnify and agree to hold each Secured Party harmless from and against Indemnified Taxes (including, without limitation, Indemnified Taxes imposed on any amounts payable under this Section 2.09) paid or payable by such Secured Party or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Secured Party and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Such indemnification shall be paid within 10 days from the date on which any such Person makes written demand therefore specifying in reasonable detail the nature and amount of such Indemnified Taxes. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Secured Party (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of another Secured Party shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)            (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Administrative Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Administrative Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.09(d)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii)            Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

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

(B)           any Lender that is not a U.S. Person (a “Foreign Lender”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

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

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

(3)            in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.09(d)-1 hereto to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to any Loan Party described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

(4)            to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.09(d)-2 or Exhibit 2.09(d)-3, IRS Form W-9, or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.09(d)-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)            any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

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

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

(e)            Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.07(i) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f)            If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.09 (including by the payment of Additional Amounts pursuant to this Section 2.09), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.09 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (f) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or Additional Amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(g)            The Administrative Agent shall provide the Administrative Borrower with two copies of, if it is a United States person under Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code, IRS Form W-9 certifying that it is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding, and, if it is not a United States person, (1) IRS Form W-8ECI with respect to payments to be received by it as a beneficial owner and (2) IRS Form W-8IMY (together with required accompanying documentation) with respect to payments to be received by it on behalf of the Lenders, certifying that, for such purpose, it is a U.S. branch that has agreed to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal tax purposes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph (g), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver any documentation that the Administrative Agent is not legally eligible to deliver.

(h)            The obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 2.09 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, and the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.10           Increased Costs and Reduced Return.

(a)            If any Secured Party shall have determined that any Change in Law shall (i) subject such Secured Party, or any Person controlling such Secured Party to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes or (C) Other Connection Taxes that are imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated) or that are franchise Taxes or branch profits Taxes) with respect to this Agreement or any Loan made by such Agent or such Lender, (ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against any Loan or against assets of or held by, or deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, such Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party or (iii) impose on such Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party any other condition regarding this Agreement or any Loan, and the result of any event referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above shall be to increase the cost to such Secured Party of making any Loan or agreeing to make any Loan or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Secured Party hereunder, then, upon written demand (including documentation reasonably supporting such request) by such Secured Party, the Borrowers shall pay to such Secured Party such additional amounts as will compensate such Secured Party for such increased costs or reductions in amount.

(b)            If any Secured Party shall have determined that any Change in Law either (i) affects the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Secured Party or any Person controlling such Secured Party, and such Secured Party determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a direct or indirect consequence of any Loans made or maintained, such Secured Party’s or such other controlling Person’s other obligations hereunder, or (ii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Secured Party’s or such other controlling Person’s capital to a level below that which such Secured Party or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such circumstances as a consequence of any Loans hereunder made or maintained, or any agreement to make Loans, or any guaranty or participation with respect thereto, such Secured Party's or such other controlling Person’s other obligations hereunder, or (ii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Secured Party's or such other controlling Person's capital to a level below that which such Secured Party or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such circumstances as a consequence of any Loans made or maintained or any agreement to make Loans or such Secured Party’s or such other controlling Person’s other obligations hereunder (in each case, taking into consideration, such Secured Party’s or such other controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, the Borrowers shall promptly following written demand pay to such Secured Party from time to time such additional amounts as will compensate such Secured Party for such cost of maintaining such increased capital or such reduction in the rate of return on such Secured Party’s or such other controlling Person’s capital.

(c)            All amounts payable under this Section 2.10 shall bear interest from the date that is 15 days after the date of written demand by any Secured Party until payment in full to such Secured Party at the Reference Rate. A certificate of such Secured Party claiming compensation under this Section 2.10, specifying the event herein above described and the nature of such event shall be submitted by such Secured Party to the Administrative Borrower, setting forth the additional amount due and an explanation of the calculation thereof, and such Secured Party’s reasons for invoking the provisions of this Section 2.10, and shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error.

(d)            Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Administrative Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e)            The obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 2.10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Article IV

APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS; DEFAULTING LENDERS; JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY OF BORROWERS

Section 4.01          Payments; Computations and Statements. (a) The Borrowers will make each payment under this Agreement not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent’s Account. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day may, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, be credited to the Administrative Agent’s Account on the next succeeding Business Day. All payments shall be made by the Borrowers without set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, deduction or other defense to the Agents and the Lenders. Except as provided in Section 2.02, after receipt, the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal ratably to the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Whenever any payment to be made under any such Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be. All computations of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fees hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes in the absence of manifest error.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall provide the Administrative Borrower, promptly after the end of each calendar month, a summary statement (in the form from time to time used by the Administrative Agent) of the opening and closing daily balances in the Administrative Agent’s Account of the Borrowers during such month, the amounts and dates of all Loans made to the Borrowers during such month, the amounts and dates of all payments on account of the Loans to the Borrowers during such month and the Loans to which such payments were applied, the amount of interest accrued on the Loans to the Borrowers during such month and the amount and nature of any charges to the Loan Account made during such month on account of fees, commissions, expenses and other Obligations. All entries on any such statement shall be presumed to be correct and, 30 days after the same is sent, shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 4.02          Sharing of Payments. Except as provided herein, if any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of any Obligation in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of similar obligations obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in such similar obligations held by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that (a) if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and each Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered and (b) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender and any payment of an amendment, consent or waiver fee to consenting Lenders pursuant to an effective amendment, consent or waiver with respect to this Agreement), (ii) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply) or (iii) amounts payable pursuant to the Fee Letters. The Borrowers agree that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all of its rights (including the Lender’s right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

Section 4.03           Apportionment of Payments. Subject to Section 2.02 hereof:

(a)            All payments of principal and interest in respect of outstanding Loans, all payments of fees (other than the fees set forth in Section 2.06 hereof) and all other payments in respect of any other Obligations, shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent among such of the Lenders as are entitled thereto, in proportion to their respective Pro Rata Shares or otherwise as provided herein or, in respect of payments not made on account of Loans, as designated by the Person making payment when the payment is made.

(b)            After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, and upon the direction of the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders, shall, apply all payments in respect of any Obligations, including without limitation, all proceeds of the Collateral, subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Agreement Among Lenders, (i) first, ratably to pay the Obligations in respect of any fees, expense reimbursements, indemnities and other amounts then due and payable to the Agents until paid in full; (ii) second, to pay interest then due and payable in respect of the Collateral Agent Advances until paid in full; (iii) third, to pay principal of the Collateral Agent Advances until paid in full; (iv) fourth, ratably to pay the Obligations in respect of any fees (other than any Applicable Premium), expense reimbursements, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements) then due and payable to the Lenders until paid in full; (v) fifth, ratably to pay interest then due and payable in respect of the Loans until paid in full; (vi) sixth, ratably to pay principal of the Loans and the Obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (vi) held by them until paid in full; (vii) seventh, ratably to pay the Obligations in respect of any Applicable Premium then due and payable to the Lenders until paid in full; and (xii) eighth, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations then due and payable.

(c)            For purposes of Section 4.03(b) “paid in full” means payment in cash of all amounts owing under the Loan Documents according to the terms thereof, including the Applicable Premium, loan fees, service fees, professional fees, interest (and specifically including interest accrued after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding), default interest, interest on interest, and expense reimbursements, whether or not the same would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in part in any Insolvency Proceeding (but excluding any payment on account of Contingent Indemnity Obligations not then due and owing).

(d)            In the event of a direct conflict between the priority provisions of this Section 4.03 and other provisions contained in any other Loan Document, it is the intention of the parties hereto that both such priority provisions in such documents shall be read together and construed, to the fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this Section 4.03 shall control and govern.

Section 4.04           Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender (other than any Agent, its Affiliates or Related Funds) becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(a)            Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 12.02.

(b)            The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to such Defaulting Lender any payments made by any Borrower to the Administrative Agent for such Defaulting Lender’s benefit, and, in the absence of such transfer to such Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent shall transfer any such payments to each other non-Defaulting Lender ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares (without giving effect to the Pro Rata Shares of such Defaulting Lender) (but only to the extent that such Defaulting Lender’s Loans were funded by the other Lenders) or, if so directed by the Administrative Borrower and if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and to the extent such Defaulting Lender’s Loans were not funded by the other Lenders), retain the same to be re-advanced to the Borrowers as if such Defaulting Lender had made such Loans to the Borrowers. Subject to the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to the Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender the amount of all such payments received and retained by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender.

(c)            The operation of this Section shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Commitments of any Lender, to relieve or excuse the performance by such Defaulting Lender or any other Lender of its duties and obligations hereunder, or to relieve or excuse the performance by any Borrower of its duties and obligations hereunder to the Administrative Agent or to the Lenders other than such Defaulting Lender.

(d)            This Section shall remain effective with respect to such Lender until either (i) the Obligations under this Agreement shall have been declared or shall have become immediately due and payable or (ii) the non-Defaulting Lenders, the Agents, and the Borrowers shall have waived such Defaulting Lender’s default in writing, and the Defaulting Lender makes its Pro Rata Share of the applicable defaulted Loans and pays to the Agents all amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender in respect thereof; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 4.05           Administrative Borrower; Joint and Several Liability of the Borrowers.

(a)            Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Borrower as the borrowing agent and attorney-in-fact for the Borrowers which appointment shall remain in full force and effect unless and until the Agents shall have received prior written notice signed by all of the Borrowers that such appointment has been revoked and that another Borrower has been appointed Administrative ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Borrower (i) to provide to the Agents and receive from the Agents all notices with respect to Loans obtained for the benefit of any Borrower and all other notices and instructions under this Agreement and (ii) to take such action as the Administrative Borrower deems appropriate on its behalf to obtain Loans and to exercise such other powers as are incidental thereto to carry out the purposes of this Agreement. Each Borrower expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the handling of the Loan Account and the Collateral in a combined fashion since the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent on the continued successful performance of the integrated group.

(b)            Each Borrower hereby accepts joint and several liability hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Agents and the Lenders under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each of the Borrowers and in consideration of the undertakings of the other Borrowers to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations. Each of the Borrowers, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other Borrowers, with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this Section 4.05), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all of the Obligations shall be the joint and several obligations of each of the Borrowers without preferences or distinction among them. If and to the extent that any of the Borrowers shall fail to make any payment with respect to any of the Obligations as and when due or to perform any of the Obligations in accordance with the terms thereof, then in each such event, the other Borrowers will make such payment with respect to, or perform, such Obligation. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Obligations of each of the Borrowers under the provisions of this Section 4.05 constitute the absolute and unconditional, full recourse Obligations of each of the Borrowers, enforceable against each such Person to the full extent of its properties and assets.

(c)            The provisions of this Section 4.05 are made for the benefit of the Agents, the Lenders and their permitted successors and assigns, and may be enforced by them from time to time against any or all of the Borrowers as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of the Agents, the Lenders or such successors or assigns first to marshal any of its or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any of the other Borrowers or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any of the other Borrowers or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 4.05 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnity Obligations not then due and payable) shall have been paid in full in cash or otherwise fully satisfied.

(d)            Each of the Borrowers hereby agrees that it will not enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against the other Borrowers with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, any payments made by it to the Agents or the Lenders with respect to any of the Obligations or any Collateral, until such time as all of the Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnity Obligations not then due and payable) have been paid in full in cash or otherwise fully satisfied. Any claim which any Borrower may have against any other Borrower with respect to any payments to the Agents or the Lenders hereunder or under any other Loan Documents are hereby expressly made subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any increases in the Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in cash or other full satisfaction of the Obligations.

Article X

AGENTS

Each Lender (and each subsequent maker of any Loan by its making thereof) hereby irrevocably appoints, authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to perform the duties of each such Agent as set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, including: (i) to receive on behalf of each Lender any payment of principal of or interest on the Loans outstanding hereunder and all other amounts accrued hereunder for the account of the Lenders and paid to such Agent, and, subject to Section 2.02 of this Agreement, to distribute promptly to each Lender its Pro Rata Share of all payments so received; (ii) to distribute to each Lender copies of all material notices and agreements received by such Agent and not required to be delivered to each Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, provided that the Agents shall not have any liability to the Lenders for any Agent’s inadvertent failure to distribute any such notices or agreements to the Lenders; (iii) to maintain, in accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of the Obligations, the Loans, and related matters and to maintain, in accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting the status of the Collateral and related matters; (iv) to execute or file any and all financing or similar statements or notices, amendments, renewals, supplements, documents, instruments, proofs of claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (v) to make the Loans and Collateral Agent Advances, for such Agent or on behalf of the applicable Lenders as provided in this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (vi) to perform, exercise, and enforce any and all other rights and remedies of the Lenders with respect to the Loan Parties, the Obligations, or otherwise related to any of same to the extent reasonably incidental to the exercise by such Agent of the rights and remedies specifically authorized to be exercised by such Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (vii) to incur and pay such fees necessary or appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions and powers pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (viii) subject to Section 10.03, to take such action as such Agent deems appropriate on its behalf to administer the Loans and the Loan Documents and to exercise such other powers delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the power to give or to refuse to give notices, waivers, consents, approvals and instructions and the power to make or to refuse to make determinations and calculations); and (ix) to act with respect to all Collateral under the Loan Documents, including for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Loans), the Agents 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 Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), and such instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents) shall be binding upon all Lenders and all makers of Loans; provided, however, that no Agent shall be required to take any action which, in the reasonable opinion of such Agent, exposes such Agent to liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law.

Section 10.02         Nature of Duties; Delegation; Credit Bid. (a) The Agents shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents. The duties of the Agents shall be mechanical and administrative in nature. The Agents shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, express or implied, is intended to or shall be construed to impose upon the Agents any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein. Each Lender shall make its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Loan Parties in connection with the making and the continuance of the Loans hereunder and shall make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and the value of the Collateral, and the Agents shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into their possession before the initial Loan hereunder or at any time or times thereafter, provided that, upon the reasonable request of a Lender, each Agent shall provide to such Lender any documents or reports delivered to such Agent by the Loan Parties pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If any Agent seeks the consent or approval of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents) to the taking or refraining from taking any action hereunder, such Agent shall send notice thereof to each Lender. Each Agent shall promptly notify each Lender any time that the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents) have instructed such Agent to act or refrain from acting pursuant hereto.

130

(b) Each Agent may, upon any term or condition it specifies, delegate or exercise any of its rights, powers and remedies under, and delegate or perform any of its duties or any other action with respect to, any Loan Document by or through any trustee, co-agent, employee, attorney-in-fact and any other Person (including any Lender). Any such Person shall benefit from this Article X to the extent provided by the applicable Agent.

(c) Subject to the terms of the Agreement Among Lenders, the Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (x) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws or regulations in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (y) at any other sale or foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law or regulation. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that would vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) in the asset or assets so purchased (or in the Equity Interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are used to consummate such purchase). In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles to make a bid, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or Equity Interests thereof shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by the vote of the Required Lenders, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 12.02 of this Agreement) and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to assign the relevant Obligations to any such acquisition vehicle pro rata by the Lenders, as a result of which each of the Lenders shall be deemed to have received a pro rata portion of any Equity Interests and/or debt instruments issued by such an acquisition vehicle on account of the assignment of the Obligations to be credit bid, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Each of the Loan Parties hereby consent to any transaction or action taken in connection with the foregoing and shall cooperate and facilitate any such transaction or action.

Section 10.03         Rights, Exculpation, Etc. The Agents and their directors, officers, agents or employees shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by them under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents (i) may treat the payee of any Loan as the owner thereof until the Collateral Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof, pursuant to Section 12.07 hereof, signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to the Collateral Agent; (ii) may consult with legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to any Agent or counsel to the Loan Parties), independent public accountants, and other experts selected by any of them and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by any of them in accordance with the advice of such counsel or experts; (iii) make no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, certificates, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; (iv) 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 this Agreement or the other Loan Documents on the part of any Person, the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default (for the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or a Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”), or to inspect the Collateral or other property (including, without limitation, the books and records) of any Person; (v) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto or thereto; and (vi) shall not be deemed to have made any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Agents be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral. The Agents shall not be liable for any apportionment or distribution of payments made in good faith pursuant to Section 4.03, and if any such apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, and the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made shall be to recover from other Lenders any payment in excess of the amount which they are determined to be entitled. The Agents may at any time request instructions from the Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the terms of this Agreement or of any of the other Loan Documents the Agents are permitted or required to take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, the Agents shall be absolutely entitled to refrain from taking any action or to withhold any approval under any of the Loan Documents until they shall have received such instructions from the Required Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of such Agent acting or refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents).

131

Section 10.04         Reliance. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

Section 10.05         Indemnification. To the extent that any Agent or any Related Party of the foregoing is not reimbursed and indemnified by any Loan Party, and whether or not such Agent has made demand on any Loan Party for the same, the Lenders will, within five days of written demand by such Agent, reimburse such Agent and such Related Parties for and indemnify such Agent and such Related Parties from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, client charges and expenses of counsel or any other advisor to such Agent and such Related Parties), advances or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against such Agent and the Related Parties in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Agent and such Related Parties under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, in proportion to each Lender's Pro Rata Share, including, without limitation, advances and disbursements made pursuant to Section 10.08; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances or disbursements for which there has been a final non-appealable judicial determination that such liability resulted from such Agent's or such Related Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.05 shall survive the payment in full of the Loans and the termination of this Agreement.

Section 10.06         Agents Individually. With respect to its Pro Rata Share of the Total Commitment hereunder and the Loans made by it, each Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender or maker of a Loan. The terms “Lenders”, “Required Lenders”, “Required Revolving Lenders”, “Required Delayed Draw Lenders” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include each Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender or one of the Required Lenders. Each Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with any Borrower as if it were not acting as an Agent pursuant hereto without any duty to account to the other Lenders.

132

Section 10.07         Successor Agent. (a) Any Agent may at any time give at least 30 days prior written notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Administrative Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, with the consent of the Administrative Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and, except with respect to successor Agents that are Affiliates of TCW, to appoint a successor Agent. If no such successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent (so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, with the consent of the Administrative Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned)). Whether or not a successor Agent has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(a)            With effect from the Resignation Effective Date, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by such Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through such retiring Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as a successor Agent shall have been appointed as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s Agent’s appointment as Agent ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article, Section 12.04 and Section 12.15 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while the retiring Agent was acting as Agent.

Section 10.08         Collateral Matters.

(a)            The Collateral Agent may from time to time make such disbursements and advances (“Collateral Agent Advances”) which the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to preserve, protect, prepare for sale or lease or dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof, to enhance the likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment by the Borrowers of the Loans and other Obligations or to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of- pocket costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 12.04. The Collateral Agent Advances shall be repayable on demand and be secured by the Collateral and shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to Reference Rate Loans. The Collateral Agent Advances shall constitute Obligations hereunder which may be charged to the Loan Account in accordance with Section 4.01. The Collateral Agent shall notify each Lender and the Administrative Borrower in writing of each such Collateral Agent Advance, which notice shall include a description of the purpose of such Collateral Agent Advance. Without limitation to its obligations pursuant to Section 10.05, each Lender agrees that it shall make available to the Collateral Agent, upon the Collateral Agent’s demand, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Pro Rata Share of each such Collateral Agent Advance. If such funds are not made available to the Collateral Agent by such Lender, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to recover such funds on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to the Collateral Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for 3 Business Days and thereafter at the Reference Rate.

133

(b)            The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon termination of the Total Commitment and payment and satisfaction of all Loans and all other Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnity Obligations) in accordance with the terms hereof; (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of any Loan Party’s business or otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (iii) constituting Excluded Property or (iv) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Lenders in accordance with Section 12.02. Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 10.08(b).

(c)            Without in any manner limiting the Collateral Agent’s authority to act without any specific or further authorization or consent by the Lenders (as set forth in Section 10.08(b)), each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by the Collateral Agent, the authority to release Collateral conferred upon the Collateral Agent under Section 10.08(b). Upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of confirmation from the Lenders of its authority to release any particular item or types of Collateral (if requested), and upon prior written request by any Loan Party, the Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders upon such Collateral; provided, however, that (i) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Collateral Agent’s opinion, would expose the Collateral Agent to liability or create any obligations or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Lien upon (or obligations of any Loan Party in respect of) all interests in the Collateral retained by any Loan Party.

(d)            Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Loan Parties, each Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (i) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under any Loan Document or to enforce any Guaranty or any other provision of the Loan Documents (including this Agreement), it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in accordance with the terms thereof, (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and (iii) the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Agents and the Lenders (but not any other Agent or any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral to be sold (A) at any public or private sale, (B) at any sale conducted by the Collateral Agent under the provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code (including pursuant to Sections 9-610 or 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code), (C) at any sale or foreclosure conducted by the Collateral Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law or (D) any sale conducted pursuant to the provisions of any Debtor Relief Law (including Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code), to use and apply all or any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale.

134

(e)            The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Loan Parties or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Lien granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document has been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or is entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 10.08 or in any other Loan Document, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any other Lender, except as otherwise provided herein.

Section 10.09         Agency for Perfection. Each Agent and each Lender hereby appoints each other Agent and each other Lender as agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting the security interests in and liens upon the Collateral in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code, can be perfected only by possession or control (or where the security interest of a secured party with possession or control has priority over the security interest of another secured party) and each Agent and each Lender hereby acknowledges that it holds possession of or otherwise controls any such Collateral for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders as secured party. Should the Administrative Agent or any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions. In addition, any Agent shall also have the power and authority hereunder to appoint such other sub-agents as may be necessary or required under applicable state law or otherwise to perform its duties and enforce its rights with respect to the Collateral and under the Loan Documents. Each Loan Party by its execution and delivery of this Agreement hereby consents to the foregoing.

Section 10.10         No Reliance on any Agent’s Customer Identification Program. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on any Agent to carry out such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other requirements imposed by the USA PATRIOT Act or the regulations issued thereunder, including the regulations set forth in 31 C.F.R. §§ 1010.100(yy), (iii), 1020.100, and 1020.220 (formerly 31 C.F.R. § 103.121), as hereafter amended or replaced (“CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Money Laundering Laws, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (1) any identity verification procedures, (2) any recordkeeping, (3) comparisons with government lists, (4) customer notices or (5) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or other regulations issued under the USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender, Affiliate, participant or assignee subject to Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act will perform the measures necessary to satisfy its own responsibilities under the CIP Regulations.

Section 10.11         No Third-Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions (other than in respect of Sections 10.01, 10.07 and 10.08 solely (i) to the extent a Loan Party has express rights set forth in such Sections or, (ii) in the case of Section 10.01, to the extent a Loan Party needs to rely on the agency provisions thereof in order to make a representation and warranty with respect to the creation and perfection of Liens securing the Obligations).

Section 10.12         No Fiduciary Relationship. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Document (or any other similar term) with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

135

Section 10.13         [Reserved].

Section 10.14         Collateral Custodian. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent or its designee may at any time and from time to time employ and maintain on the premises of any Loan Party a custodian selected by the Collateral Agent or its designee who shall have full authority to do all acts necessary to protect the Agents’ and the Lenders’ interests. Each Loan Party hereby agrees to, and to cause its Subsidiaries to, cooperate with any such custodian and to do whatever the Collateral Agent or its designee may reasonably request to preserve the Collateral. All costs and expenses incurred by the Collateral Agent or its designee by reason of the employment of the custodian shall be the responsibility of the Borrowers and charged to the Loan Account.

Section 10.15         Collateral Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Collateral Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether any Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

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

(b)            to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Secured Party to make such payments to the Collateral Agent and, in the event that the Collateral Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Secured Parties, to pay to the Collateral Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

Section 10.16         Erroneous Distribution. If all or any part of any payment or other distribution by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent to any Borrower, Lender or other Person is determined by such Agent in its sole discretion to have been made in error as determined by such Agent (any such distribution, an “Erroneous Distribution”), then the relevant Borrower, Lender or other Person shall forthwith on written demand (accompanied by a reasonably detailed calculation of such Erroneous Distribution) repay to such Agent the amount of such Erroneous Distribution received by such Person. Any determination by the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, that all or a portion of any distribution to a Borrower, Lender or other Person was an Erroneous Distribution shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Borrower, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and other potential recipient of an Erroneous Distribution hereunder waives any claim of discharge for value and any other claim of entitlement to, or in respect of, any Erroneous Distribution.

Section 10.17         [Reserved].

136

Section 10.18         Swiss Security Documents. In relation to any Swiss Security Document:

(a)            the Collateral Agent shall:

(i)            hold and administer any Lien created or expressed to be created pursuant to a Swiss Security Document by way of a security assignment (Sicherungsabtretung) or transfer for security purposes (Sicherungsübereignung) or any other non-accessory (nicht akzessorische) Lien;

(A)            the benefit of this paragraph; and

(B)            any proceeds or other benefits of such Liens,

as indirect representative (indirekter Stellvertreter) in its own name but on behalf and for the benefit of the Secured Parties;

(b)            each Secured Party hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent:

(A)            to (x) accept and execute as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) any Swiss law pledge or any other Swiss law accessory (akzessorische) Lien created or expressed to be created under or pursuant to a Swiss Security Document for the benefit of such Secured Party and (y) hold, administer and, if necessary, enforce any such Lien on behalf of each relevant Secured Party which has the benefit of such Lien;

(B)            to agree as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) to amendments, confirmations and alterations to any Swiss Security Document which creates a pledge or any other Swiss law accessory (akzessorische) Lien;

(C)            to effect as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) any release of Lien created under a Swiss Security Document in accordance with this Agreement; and

(D)            to exercise as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) such other rights, remedies, powers and discretions granted to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or under the relevant Swiss Security Document; and

(E)            to take such other action in its name and on its behalf as its direct representative (direkter Stellvertreter) as may from time to time be authorized under or in accordance with the Loan Documents.

(c)            Each of the Loan Parties and the Secured Parties hereby releases the Collateral Agent from the restrictions of representing several parties (Doppel-/Mehrfachvertretung) or engaging in self-dealing (Selbstkontrahieren) and similar restrictions under any applicable law, in each case to the extent legally possible for such Loan Party or Secured Party. Any Loan Party or Secured Party prevented by applicable law or its constitutional documents to grant the release from the restrictions of representing several parties (Doppel-/Mehrfachvertretung) or engaging in self-dealing (Selbstkontrahieren) shall notify the Collateral Agent without undue delay.

Section 10.19         Parallel Debt; Covenant to Pay the Collateral Agent.

(a)            Each Loan Party, by way of an independent payment obligation, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Collateral Agent, as creditor in its own right and not as representative of the other Secured Parties, sums equal to and in the currency of each amount payable by such Loan Party to any of the Secured Parties under the Obligations as and when that amount falls due for payment under the Obligations. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge and confirm that the parallel debt provisions contained herein shall not be interpreted so as to increase the maximum total amount of the obligations under the Obligations.

137

(b)            The obligations of each Loan Party under clause (a) above are several and are separate and independent from, and shall not in any way limit or affect, the corresponding obligations of such Loan Party to any Secured Party under the Obligations (its “Corresponding Debt”) nor shall the amounts for which each Loan Party is liable under clause (a) above (its “Parallel Debt”) be limited or affected in any way by its Corresponding Debt; provided that: (x) the Collateral Agent shall not demand payment with regard to the Parallel Debt of any Loan Party to the extent that such Loan Party's Corresponding Debt has been paid or (in the case of guarantee obligations) discharged and (y) neither the Collateral Agent nor any Secured Party shall demand payment with regard to the Corresponding Debt of any Loan Party to the extent that such Loan Party's Parallel Debt has been paid or (in the case of guarantee obligations) discharged.

(c)            The Collateral Agent acts in its own name and not as trustee or representative and it shall have its own independent right to demand payment of the amounts payable by each Loan Party under this Section 10.19. The Collateral Agent may not assign or transfer any claim arising from the Parallel Debt other than to any successor security trustee.

(d)            Any amount due and payable by a Loan Party to the Collateral Agent in respect of a Parallel Debt under this Section 10.19 shall be decreased to the extent that such Loan Party has paid the corresponding amount under the Corresponding Debt and any amount due and payable by a Loan Party to the other applicable Secured Parties under the Corresponding Debt shall be decreased to the extent that such Loan Party has paid the corresponding amount to the Collateral Agent under its Parallel Debt. The Loan Parties shall have all objections and defenses against the Parallel Debt which they have against the Corresponding Debt.

(e)            The rights of the Secured Parties (other than the Collateral Agent in its capacity as parallel debt creditor) to receive payment of amounts payable by each Loan Party under the Corresponding Debt are several and are separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the rights of the Collateral Agent to receive payment under the Parallel Debt.

Article XI

GUARANTY

Section 11.01         Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally and unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all Obligations of the Borrowers now or hereafter existing under any Loan Document, whether for principal, interest (including, without limitation, all interest that accrues after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding of any Borrower, whether or not a claim for post-filing interest is allowed in such Insolvency Proceeding), fees, commissions, expense reimbursements, indemnifications or otherwise (such obligations, to the extent not paid by the Borrowers, being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Secured Parties in enforcing any rights under the guaranty set forth in this Article XI in accordance with Section 12.04. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the Borrowers to the Secured Parties under any Loan Document but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of an Insolvency Proceeding involving any Borrower. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Guaranteed Obligations shall not include any Excluded Swap Obligations. In no event shall the obligation of any Guarantor hereunder exceed the maximum amount such Guarantor could guarantee under any Debtor Relief Law.

138

Section 11.02         Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor jointly and severally guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto. Each Guarantor agrees that this Article XI constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) any right to require that any resort be made by any Agent or any Lender to any Collateral. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Article XI are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce such obligations, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Loan Party or whether any Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under this Article XI shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

(a)            any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(b)            any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Loan Party or otherwise;

(c)            any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(d)            the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that any Guarantor may have at any time against any Person, including, without limitation, any Secured Party;

(e)            any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate, limited liability company or partnership structure or existence of any Loan Party; or

(f)            any other circumstance (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Secured Parties that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety (in each case other than payment or performance).

This Article XI shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Secured Parties or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

Section 11.03         Waiver. Each Guarantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable law) (i) promptness and diligence, (ii) notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Article XI and any requirement that the Secured Parties exhaust any right or take any action against any Loan Party or any other Person or any Collateral, (iii) any right to compel or direct any Secured Party to seek payment or recovery of any amounts owed under this Article XI from any one particular fund or source or to exhaust any right or take any action against any other Loan Party, any other Person or any Collateral, (iv) any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or Lien on any property subject thereto or exhaust any right to take any action against any Loan Party, any other Person or any Collateral, and (v) any other defense available to any Guarantor (in each case other than payment or performance). Each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall have no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Guarantor or against, or in payment of, any or all of the Obligations. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated herein and that the waiver set forth in this Section 11.03 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Article XI, and acknowledges that this Article XI is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.

139

Section 11.04         Continuing Guaranty; Assignments. This Article XI is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the later of the cash payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnity Obligations) and all other amounts payable under this Article XI and the Final Maturity Date, (b) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Secured Parties and their successors, pledgees, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender may pledge, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or any portion of its Commitments and its Loans owing to it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted such Lender herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in Section 12.07.

Section 11.05         Subrogation. No Guarantor will exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Loan Party or any other guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Article XI, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Secured Parties against any Loan Party or any other guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any Loan Party or any other guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security solely on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnity Obligations) and all other amounts payable under this Article XI shall have been paid in full in cash and this Agreement shall have been terminated. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the later of the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnity Obligations) and all other amounts payable under this Article XI and the Final Maturity Date, such amount shall be held for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall promptly be paid to the Secured Parties to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Article XI, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or to be held as Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Article XI thereafter arising. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment to the Secured Parties of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Article XI shall be paid in full in cash and (iii) the Final Maturity Date shall have occurred, the Secured Parties will, at such Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment by such Guarantor.

Section 11.06         Contribution. All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of such date, such Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to any Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Guarantor, to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Guarantors multiplied by, (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the obligations Guaranteed. “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to any Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law or the law of any other applicable jurisdiction; provided, solely for purposes of calculating the “Fair Share Contribution Amount” with respect to any Guarantor for purposes of this Section 11.06, any assets or liabilities of such Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to any Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (A) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including, without limitation, in respect of this Section 11.06), minus (B) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Guarantor from the other Guarantors as contributions under this Section 11.06. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Guarantor. The allocation among Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 11.06 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 11.06.

140

Section 11.07         Discharge of Guaranty Upon Sale of Guarantor. The Lenders irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion to discharge and release the Guaranty of any Guarantor upon the sale or disposition (including by merger or consolidation) of all of its Equity Interests in a transaction permitted hereunder, effective as of the time of such sale or disposition.

Section 11.08         Swiss Guaranty Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the obligations of a Swiss Guarantor and the rights of the Secured Parties under the Guaranty are subject to the following limitations:

(a)            If and to the extent that a Swiss Guarantor becomes (directly or indirectly) liable (inter alia, by any guaranty, indemnity or other obligation assumed by it including for the avoidance of doubt, any restrictions of such Swiss Guarantor’s rights of set-off and/or subrogation or its duties to subordinate or waive claims, if any) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document for obligations of any of its (direct or indirect) parent company or its sister companies (upstream or cross-stream) (the “Upstream or Cross-Stream Obligations”), and if and to the extent payments under such guaranty or indemnity or using the proceeds from the enforcement of any such guaranty, indemnity or any such other obligation to discharge the Upstream or Cross-Stream Obligations would constitute a repayment of capital (Einlagerückgewähr/Kapitalrückzahlung), a violation of the legally protected reserves (gesetzlich geschützte Reserven) or the payment of a (constructive) dividend (Gewinnausschüttung) by such Swiss Guarantor under Swiss corporate law or would otherwise not be permitted by applicable law, the payment obligations under any such guaranty or indemnity or the application of any proceeds from the enforcement of any such guaranty or other obligation to be used to discharge the Upstream or Cross-Stream Obligations shall be limited to the maximum amount of such Swiss Guarantor’s freely disposable shareholder equity at the time of payment is requested or at the time of enforcement (the “Maximum Amount”), provided that such limitation is required under the applicable law at that time, and provided further that such limitation shall not (generally or definitively) free the Swiss Guarantor from its obligations in excess of the Maximum Amount, but merely postpone the performance date of those obligations until such time or times as performance is again permitted under then applicable law. This Maximum Amount shall be determined in accordance with Swiss law and applicable Swiss accounting principles.

141

(b)            In respect of Upstream or Cross-Stream Obligations, the Swiss Guarantor shall as concerns the payment under any guarantee or indemnity or the application of any proceeds resulting from the enforcement of any security or other obligation assumed by such Swiss Guarantor under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and in case such Swiss Guarantor is obliged to pay Swiss Withholding Tax in relation thereto by applicable law (including tax treaties) in force at the relevant time:

(i)            use its commercially reasonable efforts to procure that such payment can be made or enforcement proceeds can be used to discharge Upstream or Cross-Stream Obligations without deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax by discharging the liability to Swiss Withholding Tax by notification pursuant to applicable law (including tax treaties) rather than payment of Swiss Withholding Tax;

(ii)            if the notification procedure pursuant to sub-paragraph (i) above:

(A)            applies for a part of the Swiss Withholding Tax only, the Swiss Guarantor shall deduct Swiss Withholding Tax at the reduced rate, resulting after the discharge of part of such Swiss Withholding Tax by notification under applicable law, from any payment made by it in respect of Upstream or Cross-Stream Obligations and promptly pay any such deducted Swiss Withholding Taxes to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration;

(B)            is not available, the Swiss Guarantor shall deduct Swiss Withholding Tax at the rate of 35% (or such other rate as in force from time to time); and

(C)            notify the Administrative Agent in writing that such notification or, as the case may be, deduction has been made, and provide the Administrative Agent with evidence that such a notification of the Swiss Federal Tax Administration has been made or such Swiss Withholding Tax deducted has been paid to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration, as the case may be;

(iii)            in the case of a deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax:

(A)            use its reasonable efforts to ensure that it or any person, which is entitled to a full or partial refund of Swiss Withholding Tax deducted from such payment or enforcement proceeds, will, as soon as reasonably practicable after such deduction (i) request a refund of Swiss Withholding Tax under applicable law (including tax treaties); and (ii) pay to the Administrative Agent upon receipt any amount so refunded; and

(B)            if a Secured Party is entitled to a full or partial refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax deducted from such payment, and if requested by such Secured Party, provide such Secured Party those documents that are required by law and applicable tax treaties to be provided by the payer of such tax in order to enable such Secured Party to prepare a claim for refund of Swiss Withholding Tax, and the Administrative Agent shall reasonably co-operate with the Swiss Guarantor to secure such refund.

(c)            To the extent the Swiss Guarantor is required to deduct Swiss Withholding Tax pursuant to paragraph (b) above, and if the Maximum Amount pursuant to paragraph (a) above is not fully utilized, such Swiss Guarantor shall be required to pay an additional amount, so that, after making any deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax, the aggregate net amount paid to the Administrative Agent is equal to the amount which would have been paid if no deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax had been required, provided that the aggregate amount paid (including the additional amount) shall in any event be limited to the Maximum Amount pursuant to paragraph (a) above. If a refund of any amounts of Swiss Withholding Tax paid by the Swiss Guarantor is made (i) to the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent shall apply such refund as a payment of the Obligations until paid in full in cash, and thereafter, to the Swiss Guarantor, (ii) to another Secured Party, then such Secured Party shall transfer such refund amount to the Administrative Agent for payment of the Obligations until paid in full in cash, and thereafter, to the Swiss Guarantor.

142

(d)            The Swiss Guarantor shall promptly take and cause to be taken any action, including the following:

(i)            the passing of any shareholders’ resolutions to approve the payment or use of the enforcement proceeds, which may be required as a matter of Swiss mandatory law in force at the time payment is requested or at the time of enforcement in order to allow a prompt payment or use of the enforcement proceeds;

(ii)            preparation of up-to-date audited balance sheet of such Swiss Guarantor;

(iii)            confirmation of the auditors of such Swiss Guarantor that the relevant amount represents the Maximum Amount;

(iv)            conversion of restricted reserves into profits and reserves freely available for the distribution as dividends and/or capital reductions (in each case, to the extent permitted by mandatory Swiss law);

(v)            revaluation of hidden reserves (to the extent permitted by mandatory Swiss law);

(vi)            reduction of its share capital to the minimum allowed under then applicable law;

(vii)            to the extent permitted by applicable law and Swiss accounting standards, write-up or realise any of its assets that are shown in its balance sheet with a book value that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets, in case of realisation, however, only if such assets are not necessary for such Swiss Guarantor’s business (nicht betriebsnotwendig); and

(viii)            all such other measures necessary to allow the Swiss Guarantor to make payments or use enforcement proceeds as agreed under paragraph (a) with a minimum of limitations.

(ii)            [reserved];

(iii)           the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Borrower may enter into an amendment to this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.07(h) to reflect an alternate service or index rate and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable;

Such notice to replace the Holdout Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, shall specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given. Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, and each Replacement Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the Holdout Lender being repaid its share of the outstanding Obligations (including, for the avoidance of doubt, accrued fees but excluding any Applicable Premium) and (y) such assignment not conflicting with Requirements of Law applicable to such Holdout Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable.

The replacement of any Holdout Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 12.07. Until such time as the Replacement Lenders shall have acquired all of the Obligations, the Commitments, and the other rights and obligations of the Holdout Lender or Defaulting Lender, as applicable, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Holdout Lender shall remain obligated to make its Pro Rata Share of Loans.

147

Section 12.03         No Waiver; Remedies, Etc. No failure on the part of any Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders provided herein and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law. The rights of the Agents and the Lenders under any Loan Document against any party thereto are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by the Agents and the Lenders to exercise any of their rights under any other Loan Document against such party or against any other Person.

advice from professionals with respect to any of the foregoing; provided that with respect to clause (m), so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such expenses solely with respect to consultants (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not legal counsel) will require the consent of the Administrative Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided further that the Administrative Borrower will be deemed to have consented if the Administrative Borrower has not responded within 10 Business Days of receipt of written request. Without limitation of the foregoing or any other provision of any Loan Document, if the Borrowers fail to perform any covenant or agreement contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon 5 days prior written notice, any Agent may itself perform or cause performance of such covenant or agreement, and the expenses of such Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be reimbursed on demand by the Borrowers. The obligations of the Borrowers under this Section 12.04 shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and discharge of any Liens granted under the Loan Documents. This Section 12.04 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

148

Section 12.05         Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any Agent or any Lender may, and is hereby authorized to, at any time and from time to time, without notice to any Loan Party (any such notice being expressly waived by the Loan Parties) and to the fullest extent permitted by law, set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) (other than payroll accounts, tax accounts, ERISA accounts and other Excluded Accounts) at any time held and other Indebtedness at any time owing by such Agent or such Lender or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all obligations of the Loan Parties either now or hereafter existing under any Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or thereunder and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of set-off, (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of set-off. Each Agent and each Lender agrees to notify such Loan Party promptly after any such set-off and application made by such Agent or such Lender or any of their respective Affiliates provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Agents and the Lenders under this Section 12.05 are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which the Agents and the Lenders may have under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents of law or otherwise.

Section 12.06         Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 12.07         Assignments and Participations.

(a)           This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Loan Party and each Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that none of the Loan Parties may assign or transfer any of its rights hereunder or under the other Loan Documents without the prior written consent of each Lender and any such assignment without the Lenders’ prior written consent shall be null and void.

(b)           Subject to the conditions set forth in clause (c) below, each Lender may assign to one or more (x) Lenders, (y) Affiliates or Related Funds of any Lender or (z) commercial banks, insurance companies, or finance companies, financial institutions, any fund that invests in loans or any other “accredited investor” (as defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act) (other than to a natural person or, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing pursuant to Section 9.01(a), (f) or (g), a Competitor) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to all or a portion of its Revolving Loan Commitment, Term Loan Commitment, Revolving Loans and/or any Term Loan made by it with the written consent of (i) in the case of Term Loans, the Collateral Agent (such consent of the Collateral Agent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), (ii) in the case of Revolving Loans, the Collateral Agent and the Servicing Agent (which such consent of the Collateral Agent and Servicing Agent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and (iii) so long as Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Borrower (such consent of the Administrative Borrower not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided that the Administrative Borrower will be deemed to have consented if the Administrative Borrower has not responded within 10 Business Days of written request; provided, further, that no written consent of the Collateral Agent, the Servicing Agent or the Administrative Borrower shall be required in connection with any assignment by a Lender to an Agent or a Lender, an Affiliate of an Agent or a Lender or a Related Fund of an Agent or a Lender.

(i)            Each such assignment shall be in an amount which is at least $5,000,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or the remainder of such Lender’s Commitment) (except such minimum amount shall not apply to an assignment by a Lender to (A) an Agent or a Lender, an Affiliate of an Agent or a Lender or a Related Fund of an Agent or a Lender or (B) a group of new Lenders, each of whom is an Affiliate or Related Fund of each other to the extent the aggregate amount to be assigned to all such new Lenders is at least $5,000,000 or a multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof); and

149

(ii)            Except as provided in the last sentence of this Section 12.07(c)(ii), the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (and the Collateral Agent and the Servicing Agent, if applicable), for its acceptance, an Assignment and Acceptance, a joinder to the Agreement Among Lenders signed by the applicable assignee(s), together with any promissory note subject to such assignment and such parties shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an IRS Form W-9 and all documentation and other information required by Governmental Authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the USA Patriot Act, along with, a processing and recordation fee of $5,000 (except the payment of such fee shall not be required in connection with an assignment by a Lender to a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender) for the benefit of the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 12.07(c)(ii), a Lender may assign any or all of its rights under the Loan Documents to an Affiliate of such Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender without delivering an Assignment and Acceptance to the Agents or to any other Person (a “Related Party Assignment”); provided, however, that (A) the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such assigning Lender until an Assignment and Acceptance has been delivered to the Administrative Agent for recordation on the Register, (B) the Collateral Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with such assigning Lender until receipt by the Collateral Agent of a copy of the fully executed Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Section 12.07(g), (C) the failure of such assigning Lender to deliver an Assignment and Acceptance to the Agents shall not affect the legality, validity, or binding effect of such assignment, and (D) an Assignment and Acceptance between the assigning Lender and an Affiliate of such Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender shall be effective as of the date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance and recordation on the Related Party Register referred to in the last sentence of Section 12.07(f) below; and

(iii)            No such assignment shall be made to (A) any Loan Party, any shareholder or other equity holder of the Administrative Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates (other than to, in each case, TCW), (B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Affiliates, or (C) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing pursuant to Section 9.01(a), (f) or (g), any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute a Competitor.

(d)            Upon such execution, delivery and acceptance, from and after the date recorded in the Register, which effective date shall be at least 3 Business Days after the delivery thereof to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as shall be agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the parties to such assignment), (A) the assignee thereunder shall become a “Lender” hereunder and, in addition to the rights and obligations hereunder held by it immediately prior to such effective date, have the rights and obligations hereunder that have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(e)            By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing pursuant to Section 9.01(a), (f) or (g), the assignee represents and warrants that it is not a Competitor and that it is legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance ; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other documents and information it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (v) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the assigning Lender, any Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agents to take such action as agents on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agents by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental hereto and thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

150

(f)            The Administrative Agent shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non- fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain, or cause to be maintained at one of its offices, a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and the principal amount of the Loans (and stated interest thereon) (the “Registered Loans”) owing to each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice. In the case of an assignment pursuant to the last sentence of Section 12.07(c)(ii) as to which an Assignment and Acceptance is not delivered to the Administrative Agent, the assigning Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain, or cause to be maintained, a register (the “Related Party Register”) comparable to the Register on behalf of the Borrowers. The Related Party Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. This Section 12.07(f) shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meanings of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any related regulations (and any successor provisions). Any Revolving PIK Amount capitalized in accordance with Section 2.04(d) of this Agreement that is not fungible with the applicable Term Loan outstanding on the date of such capitalization and any Delayed Draw Term Loan that is not fungible with the applicable Term Loan outstanding on the date of the draw, in each case, for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall be tracked separately from such Term Loan on the Register.

(g)            Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a completed Assignment and Acceptance, and subject to any consent required from the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 12.07(b) (which consent of the applicable Agent must be evidenced by such Agent’s execution of an acceptance to such Assignment and Acceptance), the Administrative Agent shall accept such assignment, record the information contained therein in the Register (as adjusted to reflect any principal payments on or amounts capitalized and added to the principal balance of the Loans and/or Commitment reductions made subsequent to the effective date of the applicable assignment, as confirmed in writing by the corresponding assignor and assignee in conjunction with delivery of the assignment to the Administrative Agent) and provide to the Collateral Agent and the Servicing Agent, if applicable, a copy of the fully executed Assignment and Acceptance.

151

(h)           A Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register or the Related Party Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or sale of all or part of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register or the Related Party Register, together with the surrender of the registered note, if any, evidencing the same duly endorsed by (or accompanied by a written instrument of assignment or sale duly executed by) the holder of such registered note, whereupon, at the request of the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s), one or more new registered notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s).

(i)            In the event that any Lender sells participations in a Registered Loan, such Lender shall, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent on behalf of the Borrowers, maintain, or cause to be maintained, a register, on which it enters the name of all participants in the Registered Loans held by it and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Registered Loan that is the subject of the participation (the “Participant Register”). A Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide). Any participation of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register. The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Administrative Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant's interest in any Commitments, Loans, or its other Obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, or other Obligation is in registered form under Section 5f. 103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. This Section shall be construed so that the Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meanings of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any related regulations (and any successor provisions). Any Revolving PIK Amount capitalized in accordance with Section 2.04(d) of this Agreement that is not fungible with the applicable Term Loan outstanding on the date of such capitalization and any Delayed Draw Term Loan that is not fungible with the applicable Term Loan outstanding on the date of the draw, in each case, for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall be tracked separately from such Term Loan on the Participant Register.

(j)            Any Foreign Lender who purchases or is assigned or participates in any portion of such Registered Loan shall comply with Section 2.09(d).

(k)           Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than to a natural person or, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing pursuant to Section 9.01(a), (f) or (g), a Competitor) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments, the Loans made by it); provided, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including without limitation, its Commitments hereunder) and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged; (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (iii) a participant shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except (A) action directly effecting an extension of the scheduled maturity dates or decrease in the principal amount of the Loans, (B) action directly effecting an extension of the due dates or a decrease in the rate of interest payable on the Loans or the fees payable under this Agreement, or (C) actions directly effecting a release of all or substantially all of the Collateral or any Loan Party (except as set forth in Section 10.08 of this Agreement or any other Loan Document); and (iv) the limitations on participations pursuant to this clause (k) shall not apply if a Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

152

(l)            The Loan Parties agree that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.09 and Section 2.10 of this Agreement with respect to its participation in any portion of the Commitments and the Loans as if it was a Lender; it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.09(d) shall be delivered to the participating Lender; provided that a participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.09 or Section 2.10 with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in law that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation.

(m)          Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (other than a Competitor (unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing pursuant to Section 9.01(a), (f) or (g)) or a natural person) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or loans made to such Lender pursuant to securitization or similar credit facility (a “Securitization”); provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. The Loan Parties shall cooperate with such Lender and its Affiliates to effect the Securitization including, without limitation, by providing such customary information as may be reasonably requested by such Lender in connection with the rating of its Loans or the Securitization.

(n)            In the case of any assignment or participation by a Lender (A) to or with a Competitor (other than when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing pursuant to Section 9.01(a), (f) or (g)) or (B) in the case of any assignment and/or participation, without the Administrative Borrower’s consent to the extent the Administrative Borrower’s consent is required under this Section 12.07 (and, if applicable, not deemed to have been given pursuant to Section 12.07(b)), in each case, to any Person, the Administrative Borrowers shall be entitled to seek specific performance to unwind any such assignment or participation and/or specifically enforce this Section 12.07(m) in addition to injunctive relief (without posting a bond or presenting evidence of irreparable harm) or any other remedy available to the Administrative Borrower at law or in equity; it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Borrower and its Subsidiaries will suffer irreparable harm if any Lender breaches any obligation under this Section 12.07 as it relates to any assignment or participation to a Competitor (unless otherwise permitted hereunder), the pledge or assignment of any security interest in any Loan or Commitment to a Competitor (unless otherwise permitted hereunder) and/or any assignment or participation of, or pledge or assignment of a security interest in, any Loan or Commitment to any Person to whom the Administrative Borrower’s consent is required but not obtained. Nothing in this Section 12.07(m) shall be deemed to prejudice any right or remedy that the Borrowers may otherwise have at law or equity.

Section 12.08         Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telecopier or electronic mail shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telecopier or electronic mail also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis.

153

Section 12.14         Reinstatement; Certain Payments. If any claim is ever made upon any Secured Party for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received by such Secured Party in payment or on account of any of the Obligations, such Secured Party shall give prompt notice of such claim to each other Agent and Lender and the Administrative Borrower, and if such Secured Party repays all or part of such amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such Secured Party or any of its property, or (ii) any good faith settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such Secured Party with any such claimant, then and in such event each Loan Party agrees that (A) any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon it notwithstanding the cancellation of any Indebtedness hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or the termination of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and (B) it shall be and remain liable to such Secured Party hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by such Secured Party.

Section 12.15         Indemnification; Limitation of Liability for Certain Damages.

(a)            In addition to each Loan Party’s other Obligations under this Agreement, each Loan Party agrees to, jointly and severally, defend, protect, indemnify and hold harmless each Secured Party and all of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, consultants and agents (collectively called the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all actual losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses (but limited to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs, client charges and expenses of (x) one firm of lead counsel (and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional lead counsel for each affected party similarly situated) for each of (i) the Indemnitees affiliated with the Administrative Agent, and (ii) the Indemnitees affiliated with the Servicing Agent, and (y) one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one regulatory counsel in each regulatory area of law (and, in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, one additional local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and one additional regulatory counsel in each regulatory area of law for each affected party similarly situated) for the Indemnitees, taken as a whole) incurred by such Indemnitees, whether prior to or from and after the Effective Date, whether direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising from or relating to or in connection with any of the following: (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution or performance or enforcement of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or of any other document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) any Agent’s or any Lender’s furnishing of funds to the Borrowers under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the management of any such Loans or the Borrowers’ use of the proceeds thereof, (iii) the Agents and the Lenders relying on any instructions of the Administrative Borrower or the handling of the Loan Account and Collateral of the Borrowers as herein provided, (iv) any matter relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or by any document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (v) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, that the Loan Parties shall not have any obligation to any Indemnitee under this subsection (a) for any Indemnified Matter caused by the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (or its related parties), as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (b) any claims or actions against any Indemnitee brought about by an Indemnitee (other than (i) claims or actions against any Person in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Servicing Agent or a similar role under the Loan Documents and (ii) claims or actions arising out of any act or omission of any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates).

155

(b)            The indemnification for all of the foregoing losses, damages, fees, costs and expenses of the Indemnitees set forth in this Section 12.15 are chargeable against the Loan Account to the extent earned, due and payable and not paid. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 12.15 may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, each Loan Party shall, jointly and severally, contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees.

(c)            No party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against the Indemnitees, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Loan Party hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or seek any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

(d)            The indemnities and waivers set forth in this Section 12.15 shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and discharge of any Liens granted under the Loan Documents.

(e)            All such amounts payable under this Section 12.15 shall be due and payable within 20 days of written demand.

Section 12.16         Records. The unpaid principal of and interest on the Loans, the interest rate or rates applicable to such unpaid principal and interest, the duration of such applicability, the Commitments, and the accrued and unpaid fees payable pursuant to Section 2.06 hereof, shall at all times be ascertained from the records of the Agents, which shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

156

Section 12.17         Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each Loan Party, each Agent and each Lender and when the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.01 hereof have been satisfied or waived in writing by the Agents, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Loan Party, each Agent and each Lender, and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Loan Parties shall not have the right to assign their rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each Agent and each Lender, and any assignment by any Lender shall be governed by Section 12.07 hereof.

Section 12.18         Highest Lawful Rate. It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Agent and each Lender shall conform strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Loan Document would be usurious as to any Agent or any Lender under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States of America and the State of New York or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to such Agent or such Lender notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Obligations, it is agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under law applicable to any Agent or any Lender that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by such Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or agreements or otherwise in connection with the Obligations shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, any excess shall be canceled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by such Agent or such Lender on the principal amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, to the Borrowers); and (ii) in the event that the maturity of the Obligations is accelerated by reason of any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to any Agent or any Lender may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall, subject to the last sentence of this Section 12.18, be canceled automatically by such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, on the principal amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Agent or such Lender to the Borrowers). All sums paid or agreed to be paid to any Agent or any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law applicable to such Agent or such Lender, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Loans until payment in full so that the rate or amount of interest on account of any Loans hereunder does not exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law. If at any time and from time to time (x) the amount of interest payable to any Agent or any Lender on any date shall be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Agent or such Lender pursuant to this Section 12.18 and (y) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Agent or such Lender would be less than the amount of interest payable to such Agent or such Lender computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Agent or such Lender, then the amount of interest payable to such Agent or such Lender in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Agent or such Lender until the total amount of interest payable to such Agent or such Lender shall equal the total amount of interest which would have been payable to such Agent or such Lender if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 12.18.

For purposes of this Section 12.18, the term “applicable law” shall mean that law in effect from time to time and applicable to the loan transaction between the Borrowers, on the one hand, and the Agents and the Lenders, on the other, that lawfully permits the charging and collection of the highest permissible, lawful non-usurious rate of interest on such loan transaction and this Agreement, including laws of the State of New York and, to the extent controlling, laws of the United States of America.

157

The right to accelerate the maturity of the Obligations does not include the right to accelerate any interest that has not accrued as of the date of acceleration.

Section 12.19         Confidentiality. Each Agent and each Lender agrees (on behalf of itself and each of its Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and representatives) to keep confidential any non-public information supplied to it by, or on behalf of, the Loan Parties pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (and which at the time is not, and does not thereafter become, publicly available or available to such Person or its Affiliates from another source not known to be subject to a confidentiality obligation to such Person not to disclose such information), provided that nothing herein shall limit the disclosure by any Agent or any Lender of any such information (i) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective equityholders (including, without limitation, partners), directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, counsel, advisors and representatives (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 in accordance with this Section 12.19) and the Lenders shall be liable for any breach hereof by such Person; (ii) to any other party hereto; (iii) to any assignee or participant (or prospective assignee or participant) or any party to a Securitization so long as such assignee or participant (or prospective assignee or participant) or party to a Securitization first agrees, in writing, to be bound by confidentiality provisions similar in substance to this Section 12.19 (other than a Competitor); (iv) to the extent required by any Requirement of Law or judicial process or as otherwise requested by any Governmental Authority, provided that the Administrative Agent shall (A) use commercially reasonable efforts to give the applicable Loan Party written notice prior to disclosing the information to the extent permitted by such requirement, (B) reasonably cooperate with the Loan Party to obtain a protective order or similar confidential treatment, and (C) only disclose that portion of the confidential information as counsel for the Administrative Agent advises the Administrative Agent it must disclose pursuant to such requirement; (v) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, any examiner, auditor or accountant or any nationally recognized rating agency or otherwise to the extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Loan Parties; (vi) in connection with any litigation to which any Agent or any Lender is a party (so long as such Agent or Lender provides the Administrative Borrower with prompt notice thereof to the extent permitted by applicable law); (vii) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; or (viii) with the consent of the Administrative Borrower.

Section 12.20         Public Disclosure. Each Loan Party agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates will now or in the future issue any press release or other public disclosure using the name of an Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates without the prior written consent of such Agent or such Lender, except to the extent that such Loan Party or such Affiliate is required to do so under applicable law (in which event, such Loan Party or such Affiliate will consult with such Agent or such Lender before issuing such press release or other public disclosure). Each Loan Party hereby authorizes each Agent and each Lender, with the consent of the Administrative Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), to advertise the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to make appropriate announcements of the financial arrangements entered into among the parties hereto, as such Agent or such Lender shall deem appropriate, including, without limitation, on a home page or similar place for dissemination of information on the Internet or worldwide web, or in announcements commonly known as tombstones, in such trade publications, business journals, newspapers of general circulation and to such selected parties as such Agent or such Lender shall deem appropriate.

158

Section 12.21         Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, reflects the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof.

Section 12.22         USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act hereby notifies the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the entities composing the Borrowers, which information includes the name and address of each such entity and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the entities composing the Borrowers in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act. Each Loan Party agrees to take such action and execute, acknowledge and deliver at its sole cost and expense, such instruments and documents as any Lender may reasonably require from time to time in order to enable such Lender to comply with the USA PATRIOT Act.

Section 12.23         Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates, reports, instruments or other documents prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans, regardless of any investigation made by the Lenders or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not been terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.10, 10.05, 12.04 and 12.23 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent or any Lender. Until the date that is the second anniversary of the termination of this Agreement, the provisions of Section 12.19 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments or the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Section 12.24         Judgment Currency. This is an international financial transaction in which the specification of a currency and payment in New York is of the essence. Dollars shall be the currency of account in the case of all payments pursuant to or arising under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document, and all such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent's Accounts in New York in immediately available funds. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the obligations of each Loan Party to the Secured Parties under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents shall not be discharged by any amount paid in any other currency or in a place other than to the Administrative Agent's Accounts in New York to the extent that the amount so paid after conversion under this Agreement and transfer to New York does not yield the amount of Dollars in New York due under this Agreement and under the other Loan Documents. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency (the “Other Currency”), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which the Administrative Agent could, in accordance with normal procedures, purchase Dollars with the Other Currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of each Loan Party in respect of any such sum due from it to the Secured Parties hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in such Other Currency, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day immediately following the date on which the Administrative Agent receives any sum adjudged to be so due in the Other Currency, the Administrative Agent may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase Dollars with the Other Currency. If the Dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to the Secured Parties in Dollars, each Loan Party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Secured Parties against such loss, and if the Dollars so purchased exceed the sum originally due to the Secured Parties in Dollars, the Secured Parties agrees to remit to the Loan Parties such excess.

159

Section 12.25         Contractual Recognition of Bail-in. Notwithstanding any other term of any Loan Document or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding between the parties, each party acknowledges and accepts that any liability of any party to any other party under or in connection with the Loan Documents may be subject to Bail-In Action by the relevant Resolution Authority and acknowledges and accepts to be bound by the effect of:

(a)            any Bail-In Action in relation to any such liability, including (without limitation):

(i)            a reduction, in full or in part, in the principal amount, or outstanding amount due (including any accrued but unpaid interest) in respect of any such liability;

(ii)           a conversion of all, or part of, any such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership that may be issued to, or conferred on, it; and

(iii)          a cancellation of any such liability; and

(b)            a variation of any term of any Loan Document to the extent necessary to give effect to any Bail-In Action in relation to any such liability.

Section 12.26         Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

Section 12.27         Lender Action. Subject to the terms of the Agreement Among Lenders, each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents (including the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Loan Party, unless expressly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

Section 12.28         No Fiduciary Duty. The Agents, each Lender and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their Affiliates. Each Loan Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Agent, any Lender, on the one hand, and such Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan Party agrees that it shall not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.
