ARTICLE II

THE CREDITS

Section 2.01 Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Term Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make a Term Loan to Borrower on the Closing Date in the principal amount equal to its Term Loan Commitment. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

Section 2.02 Loans. a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable Commitments; provided that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000 or (ii) equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.

(b) Subject to Sections 2.11 and 2.12, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03. Each Lender may at its option make any Eurodollar Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Lender to make such Loan and Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that Borrower shall not be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than five Eurodollar Borrowings in the aggregate outstanding hereunder at any one time. For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

(c) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account in New York City as the Administrative Agent may designate from time to time not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to an account of Borrower as directed by Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders within two Business Days.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.02(c), and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, each of such Lender and Borrower severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation, and (ii) in the case of Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing. If such Lender shall subsequently repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement, and Borrower’s obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.02(d) shall cease and any amounts previously so paid by Borrower shall be returned to Borrower.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Term Loan Maturity Date.

Section 2.03 Borrowing Procedure. To request a Borrowing, Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery or facsimile (or transmit by other electronic transmission, if arrangements for doing so have been approved in writing by the Administrative Agent), a duly completed and executed Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each Borrowing Request for a Term Loan shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(a) the aggregate amount of such Borrowing;

(b) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(d) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of “Interest Period”;

(e) the location and number of Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed; and

(f) that the conditions set forth in Sections 4.02(b) and (c) are satisfied as of the date of the notice.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

Section 2.04 Evidence of Debt; Repayment of Loans. b) Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to (i) the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Loan Lender, the principal amount of each Term Loan of such Term Loan Lender as provided in Section 2.09.

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

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type and Class thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from Borrower 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 Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Sections 2.04(b) and (c) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of Borrower and the other Loan Parties to pay, and perform, the Obligations in accordance with the Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such entries, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

(e) Any Lender by written notice to Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, Borrower shall promptly prepare, 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) in the form of Exhibit I. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

Section 2.05 Fees.

(a) Administrative Agent Fees. Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, the administrative fees set forth in the Administrative Agency Fee Letter (the “Administrative Agent Fees”).

(b) Other Fees. Borrower agrees to pay the Agents and the Arranger, for their own account or for the account of the Lenders, as applicable, the fees set forth in the Administrative Agency Fee Letter, and any other fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon in writing between Borrower and the applicable Agents or the Arranger.

(c) Payment of Fees. All fees described herein shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds in dollars, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that Borrower shall pay the Fees provided under Section 2.05(d) directly to the Agents. Once paid, none of the fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

Section 2.06 Interest on Loans. c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06(c), the Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06(c), the Loans comprising each Eurodollar Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) upon the occurrence and during the existence of an Event of Default under Sections 8.01(a), (b), (g) or (h) or (ii) following the request of the Required Lenders upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, all Obligations shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of principal of or interest on any Loan, 2.0% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in Sections 2.06(a) and (b) or (y) in the case of any other Obligation, 2.0% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in Section 2.06(a) (in either case, the “Default Rate”).

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.06(c) (including interest on past due interest) and all interest accrued but unpaid on or after the Term Loan Maturity Date shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to clauses (a)-(c) of the definition of the Alternate Base Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day); provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.14, bear interest for one day. The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding.

Section 2.07 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. d) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.19, the Term Loan Commitments shall automatically terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Closing Date.

(b) [Reserved.].

(c) Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under Section 2.07(b) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction (which effective date shall be a Business Day), specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of any other financing or the closing of any securities offering, or the occurrence of any other event specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. With respect to the effectiveness of any such other financing or the closing of any such securities offering or other event, Borrower may extend the date of termination at any time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

Section 2.08 Interest Elections. e) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.08. Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Borrower shall not be entitled to request any conversion or continuation that, if made, would result in more than ten Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding hereunder at any one time.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.08, Borrower shall deliver, by hand delivery or facsimile (or transmit by other electronic transmission if arrangements for doing so have been approved in writing by the Administrative Agent), a duly completed and executed Interest Election Request to the Administrative Agent not later than the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable.

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

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

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

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

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If an Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing is not timely delivered prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may require, by notice to Borrower, that (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.09 Amortization of Term Borrowings. f) Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Term Loan Lenders, on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, beginning with September 30, 2014, or if any such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately following Business Day (each such date, a “Term Loan Repayment Date”), a principal amount of the Term Loans equal to 1.25% of the initial aggregate principal amount of such Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 2.10 and in connection with any Incremental Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.19), together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

(b) To the extent not previously paid in full in cash, all Term Loans shall be due and payable on the Term Loan Maturity Date.

Section 2.10 Optional and Mandatory Prepayments of Loans.

(a) Optional Prepayments. Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this Section 2.10 (including, if applicable, the Prepayment Premium); provided that each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $250,000 and not less than $500,000 or, if less, the outstanding principal amount of such Borrowing.

(b) [Reserved.]

(c) Asset Sales. Not later than five Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale by any Company, Borrower shall apply 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to make prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10(g); provided that:

(i) no such prepayment shall be required under this Section 2.10(c) (A) with respect to the disposition of property which constitutes a Casualty Event, or (B) to the extent the Net Cash Proceeds of any such Asset Sales do not result in more than $1,000,000 (the “Asset Sale Threshold” and the Net Cash Proceeds in excess of the Asset Sale Threshold, the “Excess Net Cash Proceeds”) in Net Cash Proceeds in any fiscal year; provided that clause (B) shall not apply in the case of any Asset Sale described in clause (b) of the definition thereof;

(ii) so long as no Default shall then exist or would arise therefrom and with respect to Excess Net Cash Proceeds totaling less than $25,000,000 (as determined in the aggregate for all received Excess Net Cash Proceeds after the Closing Date), such proceeds shall not be required to be so applied on such date to the extent that Borrower (A) reinvests such proceeds in Qualified Reinvestment Property, or (B) commits to reinvest such proceeds in Qualified Reinvestment Property within 12 months after the date of receipt thereof and actually reinvests such proceeds within six months after entering into such commitment; provided that the Loan Parties shall comply with Sections 5.11 and 5.12 (within the time frames set forth therein) and with the applicable provisions of the Security Documents; and

(iii) if all or any portion of such Excess Net Cash Proceeds is not so reinvested within such 12-month period (as extended in accordance with clause (ii) above), such unused portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as a mandatory prepayment as provided in this Section 2.10(c).

For purposes of clarification, the Loan Parties acknowledge that on and after the time upon which the Excess Net Cash Proceeds from Asset Sales described in this Section 2.10(c) other than Excess Net Cash Proceeds described in clause (c)(i)(A) above and received after the Closing Date total more than $25,000,000, such excess shall be applied towards prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10(g).

(d) Debt Issuance or Preferred Stock Issuance.

(i) Not later than five Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds of any Debt Issuance or Disqualified Stock Issuance by any Company, Borrower shall make prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10(g) in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds.

(ii) Not later than five Business Days following the receipt of any Equity Cure Contribution in accordance with Section 8.03, Borrower shall make prepayments in accordance with Section 2.10(g) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the Cure Amount.

(e) Casualty Events. Not later than five Business Days following the receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds from a Casualty Event by any Company, Borrower shall apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to make prepayments in accordance with Sections 2.10(g); provided that:

(i) no such prepayment shall be required under this Section 2.10(e) to the extent such Net Cash Proceeds of any such Casualty Event do not result in more than $1,000,000 (the “Casualty Event Threshold” and the Net Cash Proceeds in excess of such Casualty Event Threshold, the “Casualty Event Excess Net Cash Proceeds”) in Net Cash Proceeds in any fiscal year;

(ii) so long as no Default shall then exist or would arise therefrom, such proceeds shall not be required to be so applied on such date to the extent that Borrower (A) reinvests such proceeds in Qualified Reinvestment Property, or (B) commits to reinvest such proceeds in Qualified Reinvestment Property within 12 months after the date of receipt thereof and actually reinvests such proceeds within six months after entering into such commitment; provided the Loan Parties shall comply with Sections 5.11 and 5.12 (within the time frames set forth therein) and with the applicable provisions of the Security Documents; and

(iii) if all or any portion of such Casualty Event Excess Net Cash Proceeds is not so reinvested within such 12-month period (as extended in accordance with clause (ii) above), such unused portion shall be applied on the last day of such period as a mandatory prepayment as provided in this Section 2.10(e).

(f) Excess Cash Flow. No later than 10 Business Days after the date on which the financial statements with respect to such fiscal year in which such Excess Cash Flow Period occurs are or are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) (without giving effect to any grace period applicable thereto), Borrower shall make prepayments in accordance with Sections 2.10(g) in an aggregate principal amount equal to (i) (x) 75% of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period then ended if the Total Leverage Ratio at the end of such period is greater than or equal to 4.50:1.00, (y) 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period then ended if the Total Leverage Ratio at the end of such period is less than 4.50:1.00 but greater than 3.50:1.00 and (z) 25% of Excess Cash Flow for the Excess Cash Flow Period then ended if the Total Leverage Ratio at the end of such period is less than or equal to 3.50:1.00, less (ii) any voluntary prepayments of Term Loans during such Excess Cash Flow Period, other than in each case voluntary prepayments funded with the proceeds of Indebtedness; provided, however, that no such prepayment shall be required under this Section 2.10(f) to the extent (but only to the extent) such payment would cause the aggregate amount of cash and Cash Equivalents of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and amounts then available to be drawn by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries under revolving credit lines (including amounts then available to be drawn pursuant to any Incremental Revolving Commitments) to be less than $20,000,000 at the time of such payment.

(g) Application of Prepayments.

(i) Prior to any optional prepayment hereunder, Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.10(g)(iii), subject to the provisions of this Section 2.10(g)(i). Any prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall be applied as directed by Borrower; provided, that any such optional prepayment shall be applied pro rata (in accordance with the respective outstanding principal amounts thereof) to each Class of Term Loans then outstanding. Except to the extent Section 8.04 is applicable, any prepayments pursuant to Section 2.10(c), (d), (e) and (f) shall be applied on a pro rata basis among the payments remaining to be made on each Term Loan Repayment Date, and within each Class, shall be applied pro rata to each Lender’s portion thereof.

(ii) Amounts to be applied pursuant to this Section 2.10 to the prepayment of Term Loans shall be applied first to reduce outstanding ABR Loans. Any amounts remaining after each such application shall be applied to prepay Eurodollar Loans.

(iii) Notice of Prepayment. Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by written notice of any prepayment hereunder (1) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment (or such shorter period of notice as may be acceptable to Administrative Agent) and (2) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one Business Day before the date of prepayment (or such shorter period of notice as may be acceptable to Administrative Agent). Each such notice shall be irrevocable; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.07, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked or delayed in accordance with Section 2.07. Each such notice shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Such notice to the Lenders may be by electronic communication. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing and otherwise in accordance with this Section 2.10. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.06.

(h) Waiver of Mandatory Prepayments. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10, (i) in the case of any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans (other than such mandatory prepayments required pursuant to Section 2.10(c) or 2.10(f) above), any Term Loan Lender may waive, by written notice to Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which such mandatory prepayment would otherwise be required to be made hereunder, the right to receive the amount of such mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans, (ii) if any Term Loan Lender elects to waive the right to receive the amount of such mandatory prepayment, all of the amount that otherwise would have been applied to mandatorily prepay the Term Loans of such Lender shall be offered by Borrower to the remaining non-waiving Term Loan Lenders on a pro rata basis, based on the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Term Loans, (iii) if and to the extent any such non-waiving Term Loan Lender does not elect by written notice to Borrower and the Administrative Agent within three Business Days following the date on which the offer is made pursuant to clause (ii) above to accept such offer, such Term Loan Lender shall be deemed to have rejected such offer and (iv) the balance, if any, shall be retained by Borrower.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.10, (i) to the extent that all or any portion of any Foreign Repatriation Amount is prohibited or delayed by applicable local Law from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Foreign Repatriation Amount so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Obligations at the times provided in this Section 2.10 but may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary for so long, but only for so long, as the applicable local Law will not permit repatriation to the United States (Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local Law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Foreign Repatriation Amount is permitted under the applicable local Law, such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Foreign Repatriation Amount will be promptly (and in any event, not later than two Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result of such repatriation) to the repayment of the Obligations pursuant to this Section 2.10 to the extent provided herein and (ii) to the extent that Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of all or any portion of the Foreign Repatriation Amount would have a material adverse tax cost (taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit actually realized in connection with such repatriation) (the amount of such material adverse tax cost, the “Foreign Repatriation Loss”), the amount of the prepayment required under Sections 2.10(c), (d), (e) or (f), as applicable, shall be reduced by the Foreign Repatriation Loss.

(j) Prepayment Premium. (i) Any repayment of the principal amount of the Term Loans, whether pursuant to a voluntary prepayment described in Section 2.10(a), a repayment in connection with a refinancing of the Term Loans, a prepayment made upon a Change of Control, a prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.10(c) as a result of any Structure Asset Sale (provided that only the Excess Portion with respect to any Structure Asset Sale shall be subject to a prepayment premium under this Section 2.10(j)), a prepayment made pursuant to Section 2.10(d), a prepayment made in connection with the acceleration of remedies in accordance with the Loan Documents or otherwise (but other than with respect to (x) mandatory prepayments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.09(a), Section 2.10(e) or Section 2.10(f) above, (y) mandatory prepayments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.10(c) as a result of any Non-Structure Asset Sale or (z) an Equity Cure Contribution), and (ii) any amendment to this Agreement that, directly or indirectly, reduces the Effective Yield applicable to the Term Loans (in each case, with original issue discount and upfront fees, which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of original issue discount, being equated to interest rate margins in a manner consistent with generally accepted financial practice based on an assumed four year life to maturity) (any such event described in clause (i) or (ii), a “Prepayment Event”) shall be accompanied by a prepayment premium equal to (x) 6.00% of the principal amount of such Term Loans repaid or repriced, if such repayment or repricing is effected on or prior to the one year anniversary of the Closing Date, (y) 3.00% of the principal amount of such Term Loans repaid or repriced, if such repayment or repricing is effected after the one year anniversary of the Closing Date but on or prior to the second year anniversary of the Closing Date and (z) 1.00% of the principal amount of such Term Loans repaid or repriced, if such repayment or repricing is effected after the second year anniversary of the Closing Date but on or prior to the third year anniversary of the Closing Date (any such prepayment premium referenced in clauses (x) through (z) above in this sentence, a “Prepayment Premium”). Any such determination by the Administrative Agent as contemplated by the preceding sentence shall be conclusive and binding on Borrower and all Lenders, absent manifest error. For purposes of clarification, the parties hereto acknowledge that any prepayment premium due in connection with a Structure Asset Sale which qualifies as or results in a Change in Control shall not be limited by any Excess Portion calculation and shall be treated as a Change in Control for purposes of the foregoing paragraph.

Section 2.11 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

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

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

then the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to Borrower and the Lenders as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided that Borrower may revoke any such Borrowing Request (without penalty) prior to such Borrowing upon written notice to the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.12 Increased Costs; Change in Legality. g) If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender; or

(iii) subjects any Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its Loans, principal, letters of credit, Commitments, or other Obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, or such Lender’s holding company, if any, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered, it being understood that, to the extent duplicative of the provisions of Section 2.15, this Section 2.12 shall not apply to Taxes. The protection of this Section 2.12 shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or been imposed.

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

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in Sections 2.12(a) or (b) shall be delivered to Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten Business Days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further 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 indicate the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurodollar Loan, then, by written notice to Borrower and to the Administrative Agent:

(i) such Lender may declare that Eurodollar Loans will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness (as determined in good faith by such Lender)) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional Interest Periods and ABR Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Eurodollar Loans), whereupon any request for a Eurodollar Loan (or to convert an ABR Loan to a Eurodollar Loan or to continue a Eurodollar Loan for an additional Interest Period) shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for an ABR Loan (or a request to continue an ABR Loan as such for an additional Interest Period or to convert a Eurodollar Loan into an ABR Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn by such Lender by written notice to Borrower and to the Administrative Agent; and

(ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Eurodollar Loans made by it be converted to ABR Loans, in which event all such Eurodollar Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in Section 2.12(f).

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under clause (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurodollar Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurodollar Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the ABR Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Eurodollar Loans.

(f) For purposes of Section 2.12(e), a notice to Borrower by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurodollar Loan made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Eurodollar Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by Borrower.

Section 2.13 Breakage Payments. In the event of (a) the payment or prepayment, whether optional or mandatory, of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan earlier than the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of the acceleration of the Obligations following an Event of Default in accordance with the terms of this Agreement), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan earlier than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.16, then, in any such event, Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin (together with any interest payable at the Default Rate, if then applicable) that would have been applicable to such Loan, 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 for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the Eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall be delivered to Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error. Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within five Business Days after receipt thereof.

Section 2.14 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs. h) Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.15, or otherwise) on or before the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff, deduction or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Attn: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15 and 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, unless specified otherwise, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars.

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

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim (including pursuant to Section 10.08) or otherwise (including by exercise of its rights under the Security Documents), obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Term Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Term Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Term Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Term Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.14(c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Term Loans to any Eligible Assignee or participant, other than to any Company or any Affiliates thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section 2.14(c) shall apply). Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Legal Requirements, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Loan Party in the amount of such participation. If under applicable Insolvency Law any Secured Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff or counterclaim to which this Section 2.14(c) applies, such Secured Party shall to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights to which the Secured Party is entitled under this Section 2.14(c) to share in the benefits of the recovery of such secured claim.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or practices on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(c), 2.14(d) or 10.03(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

Section 2.15 Taxes. i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense and free and clear of and without deduction, reduction or withholding for any and all Indemnified Taxes; provided that if any Indemnified Taxes shall be required by applicable Legal Requirements to be deducted or withheld from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by the relevant Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions, reductions or withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15), the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions, reductions or withholdings been made, (ii) the relevant Loan Party, if applicable, shall make such deductions, reductions or withholdings and (iii) the relevant Loan Party, if applicable, shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements.

(b) In addition, Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Legal Requirements, or at the option of the Administrative Agent reimburse it for payment of, any Other Taxes.

(c) Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.15) and any penalties, interest and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrower by a Lender (in each case, with a copy delivered concurrently to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) 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 Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.04(e) 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 Section 2.15(d).

(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by Borrower to a Governmental Authority, Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the Tax Return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If Borrower fails to pay any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority, Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for any incremental Taxes or expenses that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender as a result of any such failure.

(f) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable Legal Requirements, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirements or reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in the remainder of this Section 2.15(f) and Section 2.15(g)) 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. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Foreign Lender shall (i) furnish to Borrower and the Administrative Agent either (1) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8BEN (or successor form), (2) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or successor form), (3) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8EXP (or successor form) or (4) two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or successor form) (with any required attachments), certifying, in each case, to such Foreign Lender’s legal entitlement to an exemption or reduction from U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to all interest payments hereunder, and (ii) to the extent it may lawfully do so at such times, upon reasonable request by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide a new Form W-8BEN (or successor form), Form W-8ECI (or successor form), Form W-8EXP (or successor form) or Form W8IMY (or successor form) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form to reconfirm any complete exemption from, or any entitlement to a reduction in, U.S. federal withholding tax with respect to any interest payment hereunder; provided that any Foreign Lender that is relying on the so-called “portfolio interest exemption” within the meaning of Section 881(c) of the Code shall also furnish a “Non-Bank Certificate” substantially in the form of Exhibit L-1 through 3, as applicable, if it is furnishing a Form W-8BEN to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code. Any Lender that is not a Foreign Lender shall (i) furnish to Borrower and the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete originally executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor form), or shall otherwise establish an exemption from U.S. backup withholding and (ii) to the extent it may lawfully do so at such times, upon reasonable request by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide a new From W-9 (or successor form) upon the expiration or obsolescence of any previously delivered form.

(g) If a payment made to a Lender hereunder may be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax under FATCA, such Lender shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable Legal Requirements and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its withholding obligations, to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.15(g), the term “FATCA” shall include any amendments to FATCA after the date hereof.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender (or an assignee) determines in its sole discretion that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrower or with respect to which Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.15, it shall pay over such refund to Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrower under this Section 2.15 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or the Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, however, that if the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) is required to repay all or a portion of such refund to the relevant Governmental Authority, Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee), shall repay the amount paid over to Borrower that is required to be repaid (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) within three Business Days after receipt of written notice that the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) is required to repay such refund (or a portion thereof) to such Governmental Authority. Nothing contained in this Section 2.15(h) shall require the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or assignee) to make available its Tax Returns or any other information which it deems confidential or privileged to Borrower or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender (or assignee) be required to pay any amount to Borrower the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Administrative Agent or such Lender (or assignee) 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 additional amounts with respect to such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid.

Section 2.16 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Mitigation of Obligations. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b), or if Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce materially amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.12(a), 2.12(b) or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future, (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense, (iii) would not require such Lender to take any action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions, and (iv) would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Borrower shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. A certificate setting forth such costs and expenses submitted by such Lender to the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b) Replacement of Lenders. In the event (i) any Lender delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to Section 2.12(a) or (b), (ii) any Lender delivers a notice described in Section 2.12(e), (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (iv) Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, (v) any Lender defaults in its obligations to make Loans or other extensions of credit hereunder, or (vi) in the case of any proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification, any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 10.04(b)), upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an Eligible Assignee which shall assume such assigned obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (1) such assignment shall not conflict with any applicable Legal Requirement, (2) Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, and (3) Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to the affected Lender in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and interest and any prepayment premium or penalty (if any) accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans of such Lender affected by such assignment plus all Fees and other amounts owing to or accrued for the account of such Lender hereunder (including any amounts under Sections 2.12 and 2.13); provided further that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender’s claim for compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b) or notice under Section 2.12(e) or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.15, as the case may be, cease to cause such Lender to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.12(e), or cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 2.15, as the case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender pursuant to Section 2.16(a)), or if such Lender shall waive its right to claim further compensation under Section 2.12(a) or (b) in respect of such circumstances or event or shall withdraw its notice under Section 2.12(e) or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.15 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification, as the case may be, then such Lender shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder. Each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as assignor, any Assignment and Assumption necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 2.16(b).

(c) Defaulting Lenders. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then (i) during any Default Period (as defined below) with respect to such Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender”, and the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Term Loan Commitments and Term Loans shall be excluded for purposes of voting, and the calculation of voting, on any matters (including the granting of any consents or waivers) with respect to any of the Loan Documents, except that the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Term Loan Commitments and Term Loans shall be included for purposes of voting, and the calculation of voting, on the matters set forth in Section 10.02(b)(i)-(xi) (including the granting of any consents or waivers) only to the extent that any such matter disproportionately affects such Defaulting Lender; (ii) to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, until such time as the Default Excess (as defined below) with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero, (1) any voluntary prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a) shall, if Borrower so directs at the time of making such voluntary prepayment, be applied to the Loans of other Lenders in accordance with Section 2.10(a) as if such Defaulting Lender had no Loans outstanding, and (2) any mandatory prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.10 shall, if Borrower so directs at the time of making such mandatory prepayment, be applied to the Loans of other Lenders (but not to the Loans of such Defaulting Lender) in accordance with Section 2.10 as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Loans that are Loans of such Defaulting Lender, it being understood and agreed that Borrower shall be entitled to retain any portion of any mandatory prepayment of the Loans that is not paid to such Defaulting Lender solely as a result of the operation of the provisions of this clause (2).

For purposes of this Agreement, (i) “Funding Default” means, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, the occurrence of any of the events set forth in the definition of “Defaulting Lender,” (ii) “Defaulted Loan” means the Loans of a Defaulting Lender; (iii) “Default Period” means, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, the period commencing on the date of the applicable Funding Default and ending on the earliest of the following dates: (a) the date on which all Commitments are cancelled or terminated and/or the Obligations are declared or become immediately due and payable, (b) with respect to any Funding Default (other than any such Funding Default arising pursuant to clause (e) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender”), the date on which (1) the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero (whether by the funding by such Defaulting Lender of any Defaulted Loans of such Defaulting Lender or by the non-pro rata application of any voluntary or mandatory prepayments of the Loans in accordance with the terms hereof or any combination thereof) and (2) such Defaulting Lender shall have delivered to Borrower and the Administrative Agent a written reaffirmation of its intention to honor its obligations under this Agreement with respect to its Commitment(s), and (c) the date on which Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders waive all Funding Defaults of such Defaulting Lender in writing, and (iv) “Default Excess” shall mean, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, the excess, if any, of such Defaulting Lender’s pro rata percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans of all Lenders (calculated as if all Defaulting Lenders (including such Defaulting Lender) had funded all of their respective Defaulted Loans) over the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans of such Defaulting Lender.

No amount of the Commitment of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.16(c), performance by Borrower of its obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified, as a result of any Funding Default or the operation of Section 2.16(c). The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under Section 2.16(c) are in addition to other rights and remedies that Borrower may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default and that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default.

Section 2.18 Reserved.

Section 2.19 Increases of the Commitments.

(a) Subject to the terms of this Section 2.19, Borrower may, not more than six times after the Closing Date, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), increase, at Borrower’s request to the Administrative Agent (each, an “Incremental Request”), the then effective aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Commitments (“Incremental Term Loan Commitments” and the loans thereunder, “Incremental Term Loans”) and/or, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, add a committed revolving credit line (“Incremental Revolving Commitments” and the loans thereunder, “Incremental Revolving Loans”); provided that:

(i) (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Incremental Commitments shall not exceed the Incremental Cap in effect at such time, (B) the aggregate principal amount of all Incremental Revolving Commitments shall not exceed $10,000,000 and (C) the aggregate principal amount of any requested Incremental Commitments pursuant to any Incremental Request shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (or such lower amount that represents all remaining availability pursuant to this Section 2.19);

(ii) the proceeds of such Incremental Commitments shall be used solely for the purposes described in Section 3.12;

(iii) Borrower shall execute and deliver such agreements, instruments and documents and take such other actions as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection with such Incremental Commitments and at the time of the effectiveness of any such proposed Incremental Commitments;

(iv) (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur immediately after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments and the application of proceeds therefrom and (B) after giving effect to such Incremental Commitments and the application of proceeds therefrom on a Pro Forma Basis (and assuming the full utilization thereof), Borrower shall be in compliance with the Financial Covenants as of the most recent Test Period;

(v) (A) the Incremental Term Loans shall have a maturity date no earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date and shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity no shorter than the Term Loans made under Section 2.02 and (B) the Incremental Revolving Commitments shall have a termination date no earlier than the date which is five (5) years after the Closing Date;

(vi) if the weighted average interest rates applicable to the Incremental Loans exceed the interest rates set forth for the existing Term Loans in Section 2.06, then the interest rates set forth in Section 2.06 with respect to the existing Term Loans (or any then existing revolving loans) shall increase by the Yield Differential (it being understood that any increase in the weighted average interest rates may (i) take the form of original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees, with such OID or upfront fees being equated to such interest margins in a manner determined by the Administrative Agent and consistent with generally accepted financial practice based on an assumed four-year life to maturity or (ii) be accomplished by a combination of an increase in the weighted average interest rates, OID and/or upfront fees); and

(vii) all other terms and conditions with respect to the Incremental Loans shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being agreed that to the extent such terms and conditions are substantially identical to the terms and conditions with respect to the Term Loans made under Section 2.02, they shall be satisfactory) .

(b) Any request under this Section 2.19 shall be submitted by Borrower in writing to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly forward copies to the Lenders). Borrower may also specify any fees offered to those Lenders (the “Increasing Lenders”) that agree to provide any portion of the Incremental Commitments, which fees may be variable based upon the amount of Incremental Commitments which any such Lender is willing to provide. No Lender shall have any obligation, express or implied, to provide any Incremental Commitments. Only the consent of each Increasing Lender shall be required for any Incremental Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19. No Lender which declines to provide any portion of the Incremental Commitments may be replaced with respect to its existing Term Loans (or any then existing revolving loans) as a result thereof without such Lender’s consent.

(c) Each Increasing Lender shall as soon as reasonably practicable specify in writing the amount of the proposed Incremental Commitments that it is willing to assume (provided that any Lender not so responding within five Business Days (or such shorter period as may be specified by the Administrative Agent) shall be deemed to have declined such a request). Borrower may accept some or all of the offered amounts or (after determination or deemed determination from then existing Lenders of response to such increase request), designate new lenders that are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, as additional Lenders hereunder in accordance with this Section 2.19 (each such new lender being a “New Lender”), which New Lenders may assume all or a portion of the Incremental Commitments. The Administrative Agent, in consultation with Borrower, shall have discretion jointly to adjust the allocation of the Incremental Commitments among Increasing Lenders and New Lenders.

(d) Subject to the foregoing, any increase requested by Borrower shall be effective upon (i) delivery of a joinder to this Agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, signed by a duly authorized officer of each New Lender; (2) a notice to the Increasing Lenders and New Lenders, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, signed by a Financial Officer of Borrower; (3) an Officers’ Certificate of Borrower, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; (4) to the extent requested by any New Lender or Increasing Lender, executed Notes issued by Borrower in accordance with Section 2.04(e); (5) an amendment (an “Incremental Loan Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by Borrower, each Increasing Lender (if any), each New Lender (if any) and the Administrative Agent; and (6) any other certificates or documents that the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and (ii) satisfaction on the effective date of the Incremental Loan Amendment of (1) each of the conditions specified in Section 4.02 (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Credit Extension” or similar language in Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of the Incremental Loan Amendment), and (2) such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.02, the Administrative Agent is expressly permitted, without the consent of the other Lenders (but subject to the consent of Borrower), to amend the Loan Documents (which may be in the form of an amendment and restatement) to the extent necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent to give effect to any extensions pursuant to this Section 2.19.

(e) Upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19, if, on the date of such increase, there are any revolving loans outstanding hereunder, such revolving loans shall on or prior to the effectiveness of such Incremental Revolving Commitments be prepaid from the proceeds of additional revolving loans made hereunder (reflecting such Incremental Revolving Commitments), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the revolving loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.13. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

Section 2.20 Extension Offers.

(a) Borrower may on one or more occasions by written notice to the Administrative Agent make one or more offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) to all the Lenders of one or more Classes (each Class subject to such an Extension Offer, an “Extension Request Class”) to extend the maturity date applicable to such Class of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to Borrower (an “Extension Amendment”). Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Extension Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Extension Amendment is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 30 Business Days after the date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent). Extension Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of such Extension Request Class of the Lenders that accept the applicable Extension Offer (such Lenders, “Extending Lenders”).

(b) An Extension Amendment shall be effected pursuant to an Extension Agreement executed and delivered by Borrower, each applicable Extending Lender and the Administrative Agent; provided that no Extension Amendment shall become effective unless (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of effectiveness thereof, (ii) on the date of effectiveness thereof, each of the representations and warranties made by any Loan Party set forth in Article III or in any other Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date with the same effect as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date); provided that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct (after giving effect to any qualification therein) in all respects on such respective dates, (iii) Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent an Officers’ Certificate of Borrower, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (iv) Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent any other certificates or documents that the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Extension Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.02, the Administrative Agent is expressly permitted, without the consent of the other Lenders (but subject to the consent of Borrower), to amend the Loan Documents (which may be in the form of an amendment and restatement) to the extent necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent to give effect to any increases pursuant to this Section 2.20, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Extending Lenders as a new Class of Loans and/or Commitments hereunder.

ARTICLE III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Each Loan Party represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each of the Lenders on the Closing Date and upon each Credit Extension thereafter that:

Section 3.01 Organization; Powers. Each Company (a) is duly incorporated or organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, (b) has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and, except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, to own and lease its property and (c) is qualified and in good standing (to the extent such concept is applicable in the applicable jurisdiction) to do business in every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except in such jurisdictions where the failure to so qualify or be in good standing, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.02 Authorization; Enforceability. The Loan Documents to be entered into by each Loan Party are within such Loan Party’s powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action on the part of such Loan Party. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party and constitutes, and each other Loan Document to which any Loan Party is to be a party, when executed and delivered by such Loan Party, will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

Section 3.03 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by the Loan Parties of the Loan Documents to which they are a party and the Credit Extensions contemplated by the Loan Documents, (a) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except (i) such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (ii) registrations and filings necessary to perfect Liens created by the Loan Documents and (iii) consents, approvals, registrations, filings, permits or actions, with respect to which the failure to obtain or perform could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (b) will not violate the Organizational Documents of any Company, (c) will not violate any Legal Requirement except, individually or in the aggregate, where it could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (d) will not violate or result in a default or require any consent or approval under any indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon any Company or its property, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by any Company, except for violations, defaults, consents, approvals or the creation of such rights that could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and (e) will not result in the creation or imposition of any Lien on any property of any Company, except Liens created by the Security Documents and Permitted Liens.

Section 3.04 Financial Statements; Projections.

(a) Historical Financial Statements. Borrower has heretofore delivered to the Administrative Agent and made available to the Lenders the consolidated balance sheets and related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of Borrower as of and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2013, audited by and accompanied by the unqualified opinion of BDO USA, LLP, independent public accountants. Such financial statements and all financial statements delivered pursuant to Sections 5.01(a) and (b) have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and present fairly in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations and cash flows of Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the dates and for the periods to which they relate, except as indicated in any notes thereto and, in the case of any such unaudited financial statements, the absence of footnote disclosures and audit adjustments. Such financial statements show all material indebtedness and other material liabilities, direct or contingent, of Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of the date thereof, including material liabilities for taxes and Indebtedness, in each case, to the extent required to be disclosed under GAAP.

(b) No Material Adverse Effect. Since December 31, 2013, there has been no event, change, circumstance or occurrence that, individually or in the aggregate, has had or could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Pro Forma Financial Statements. Borrower has heretofore delivered to the Administrative Agent and made available to the Lenders unaudited pro forma financial statements for 2014 after giving effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on such date in the case of any balance sheet information and as of the beginning of all periods presented in the case of any income statement information. Such pro forma financial statements have been prepared in good faith by the Loan Parties, based on the assumptions (which assumptions are believed as of the Closing Date to be reasonable in light of then existing conditions and information reasonably available to management of Borrower prior to the Closing Date), it being recognized that such financial projections are only estimates and are not to be viewed as facts and are not a guarantee of financial performance, and that actual results may differ from the projected financial performance and that such differences may be material.

Section 3.05 Properties.

(a) Generally. Each Company has good and marketable title to, or valid leasehold interests in, all its property (other than Intellectual Property which is subject to Section 3.06) material to its business, free and clear of all Liens and irregularities, deficiencies and defects in title, except for Permitted Liens and minor irregularities or deficiencies in title that, individually or in the aggregate, do not, and could not be reasonably expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Real Property. Schedule 8 to the Perfection Certificate dated the Closing Date contains a true and complete list of each interest in Real Property (i) owned by any Loan Party as of the Closing Date and (ii) leased or subleased by any Loan Party, as lessee or sublessee, as of the Closing Date and describes the type of interest therein held by such Loan Party. Except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (i) all Real Property that is necessary for or material to any Loan Party’s business is zoned to permit the uses for which such Real Property is currently being used, (ii) the present uses of the Real Property and the current operations of each Company’s business do not violate any applicable Legal Requirement and (iii) there is no pending or threatened condemnation or eminent domain proceeding with respect to, or that could affect any of the Real Property of the Loan Parties.

(c) Collateral. Each Company owns or has rights to use all of the Collateral (other than Intellectual Property which is subject to Section 3.06) and all rights (other than rights in Intellectual Property which is subject to Section 3.06) with respect to any of the foregoing used in, necessary for or material to each Company’s business as currently conducted. The use by each Company of such Collateral (other than Intellectual Property which is subject to Section 3.06) and all such rights (other than rights in Intellectual Property which is subject to Section 3.06) with respect to the foregoing do not infringe on the rights of any Person other than such infringement which could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except as could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, no claim has been made and remains outstanding that any Company’s use of any Collateral (other than Intellectual Property which is subject to Section 3.06) does or may violate the rights of any third party.

Section 3.06 Intellectual Property.

(a) Ownership/No Claims. Each Company owns, or is licensed (or authorized) to use, all patents, patent applications, trademarks, trade names, service marks, copyrights, technology, trade secrets, proprietary information, domain names, know-how and processes which are owned by, or otherwise are used in, necessary for or material to each Company’s business as currently conducted and as currently proposed to be conducted (the “Intellectual Property”). No claim has been asserted in writing or is pending, in each case, against any Company, by any Person challenging the use of or the validity or enforceability of any such Intellectual Property owned by each Company or challenging the use of any Intellectual Property licensed by such Company, nor does any Company know of any basis for any such claim, except, in each case, for any claim that could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The use of the Intellectual Property by each Company and the operation of the businesses of the Companies do not infringe the rights of any Person, except as could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Company has taken commercially reasonable actions to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all trade secrets used in such Company’s business.

(b) Rights Granted. No third party has any right to use any Intellectual Property owned by any Company except pursuant to written licenses and other use agreements entered into by a Company and such relevant third party, in the ordinary course of business that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) No Violations or Proceedings. As of the Closing Date, there is no violation, infringement or misappropriation by others of any right of such Company with respect to the Intellectual Property that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d) No Impairment. Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, nor the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, will alter, impair or otherwise affect or require the consent, approval or other authorization of any other Person in respect of any right of any Company in any Intellectual Property, except to the extent that such alteration, impairment, effect, consent, approval or other authorization, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(e) No Agreement or Order Materially Affecting Intellectual Property. No Company is subject to any settlement, covenant not to ▇▇▇ or other instrument, agreement or other document, or any outstanding Order, which may materially affect the validity or enforceability or restrict in any material manner such Company’s use, licensing or transfer of any of the Intellectual Property.

Section 3.07 Equity Interests and Subsidiaries. As of the Closing Date, Schedules 1(a) and 11 to the Perfection Certificate dated the Closing Date set forth a list of (i) all the Subsidiaries of Borrower and their jurisdictions of incorporation or organization as of the Closing Date and (ii) the number of each class of its Equity Interests authorized, and the number outstanding, on the Closing Date and the number of Equity Interests covered by all outstanding options, warrants, rights of conversion or purchase and similar rights on the Closing Date. All outstanding Equity Interests of each Loan Party, as of the Closing Date, are duly and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable, and, other than the Equity Interests of Borrower, are owned by Borrower, directly or indirectly through Wholly Owned Subsidiaries (except for immaterial amounts owned by directors or other parties as required by local law). Each Loan Party is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good and marketable title to, the Equity Interests pledged by it under the Security Agreement, free of any and all Liens, rights or claims of other Persons, except Permitted Liens, and, as of the Closing Date, there are no outstanding warrants, options or other rights (including derivatives) to purchase, or shareholder, voting trust or similar agreements outstanding with respect to, or property that is convertible into, or that requires the issuance or sale of, any such Equity Interests (or any economic or voting interests therein).

Section 3.08 Litigation; Compliance with Legal Requirements. There are no actions, suits, claims, disputes or proceedings at law or in equity by or before any Governmental Authority now pending or, to the knowledge of any Company, threatened against or affecting any Company or any business, property or rights of any Company (i) that involve any Loan Document or any of the Transactions or (ii) that could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Except for matters covered by Section 3.18, no Company or any of its property is in violation of, nor will the continued operation of its property as currently conducted violate, any Legal Requirements (including any zoning or building ordinance, code or approval or any building permits) or any restrictions of record or agreements affecting any Company’s Real Property or is in default with respect to any Legal Requirement, except for any such violations or defaults that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 3.09 [Reserved].

Section 3.10 Federal Reserve Regulations. No Company is engaged principally, or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of buying or carrying Margin Stock. No part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly, and whether immediately, incidentally or ultimately, for any purpose that entails a violation of, or that is inconsistent with, the provisions of the regulations of the Board, including Regulation T, U or X. The pledge of the Securities Collateral pursuant to the Security Agreement does not violate such regulations.

Section 3.11 Investment Company Act. No Company is (a) an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company,” as defined in, or subject to regulation under, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (b) subject to regulation under any Legal Requirement (other than Regulation X) that limits its ability to incur, create, assume or permit to exist Indebtedness or grant any Contingent Obligation in respect of Indebtedness.

Section 3.12 Use of Proceeds. Borrower will use the proceeds of (a) the Term Loans made on the Closing Date to consummate Transactions and pay fees, costs and expenses relating to the Transactions and for working capital and general corporate purposes (including to effect Permitted Acquisitions, permitted Investments and Capital Expenditures); and (b) the Incremental Loans, if any, made after the Closing Date to effect Permitted Acquisitions and fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith.

Section 3.13 Taxes. Each Company has (a) timely filed or caused to be timely filed all federal Tax Returns and all material state, local and foreign Tax Returns required to have been filed by it and all such Tax Returns are true and correct in all material respects, (b) duly and timely paid, collected or remitted or caused to be duly and timely paid, collected or remitted all federal Taxes and all other material Taxes due and payable, collectible or remittable by it and all assessments received by it, except Taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which such Company has set aside on its books adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP, and (c) satisfied all of its withholding tax obligations. Each Company has made adequate provision in accordance with GAAP for all Taxes not yet due and payable. As of the Closing Date, each Company is unaware of any proposed or pending tax assessments, deficiencies or audits. No Company has ever “participated” in a “listed transaction” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4.

Section 3.14 No Material Misstatements. i) No written information, report, financial statement, certificate, Borrowing Request, exhibit or schedule (in each case other than forecasts, projections, pro forma financial information and other forward looking statements (collectively, “Projections”)) furnished by or on behalf of any Company to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with any Loan Document or included therein or delivered pursuant thereto or hereunder (in each case, as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished), taken as a whole and when furnished, contained or contains any material misstatement of fact or omitted or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were or are made, not materially misleading when taken as a whole as of the date such information is dated or certified (after giving effect to all timely modifications and supplements to such written reports, financial statements, certificates or other written information, in each case, furnished after the date on which such written reports, financial statements, certificates or other written information were originally delivered).

(b) With respect to any Projections delivered pursuant to the terms hereof, each Company represents only that on the date of delivery thereof it acted in good faith and utilized assumptions believed by it to be reasonable when made and when such Projections were delivered in light of the then-current circumstances (it being understood that Projections are estimates and are not to be viewed as facts and are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, which are beyond the control of Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and that no assurance or guarantee can be given that any Projections will be realized, that actual results may differ and such differences may be material).

Section 3.15 Labor Matters. As of the Closing Date, there are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against any Company pending or, to the knowledge of any Company, threatened. The hours worked by and payments made to employees of any Company have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938, as amended, or any other applicable federal, state, local or foreign law dealing with such matters in any manner which could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. All payments due from any Company, or for which any claim may be made against any Company, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of such Company except where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which any Company is bound.

Section 3.16 Solvency. Both immediately before and immediately after the consummation of the Transactions to occur on the Closing Date and immediately following the making of each Credit Extension and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of each Credit Extension, the Loan Parties, on a consolidated basis, are Solvent.

Section 3.17 Employee Benefit Plans. With respect to each Plan, each Company and its ERISA Affiliates is in compliance in all respects with its terms, as well as the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder, except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or the imposition of a Lien on any of the property of any Company. No Plan is considered an at risk Plan or Plan in endangered or critical status within the meaning of Sections 430, 431 or 432 of the Code or Sections 303, 304 or 305 of ERISA. Using actuarial assumptions and computation methods consistent with Section 4211 of ERISA, the aggregate liabilities of each Company or its ERISA Affiliates to all Multiemployer Plans in the event of a complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of the most recent fiscal year of each such Multiemployer Plan, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Each Foreign Plan has been maintained in compliance with its terms and with the requirements of any and all applicable Legal Requirements and has been maintained, where required, in good standing with applicable regulatory authorities, except, in each case, where the failure to do so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. No Company has incurred any obligation in connection with the termination of or withdrawal from any Foreign Plan, except for any obligation as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Plan which is funded, determined as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal year of the respective Company on the basis of actuarial assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of the property of such Foreign Plan by an amount that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, and for each Foreign Plan which is not funded, the obligations of such Foreign Plan are properly accrued.

Section 3.18 Environmental Matters.

(a) Except with respect to any matters that individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any Environmental Permit required under any Environmental Law, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, (iii) has received notice of any Environmental Claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or (iv) knows of any basis for any Environmental Liability.

(b) Except as could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect:

The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under Section 7.01 shall constitute a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations and irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or Subsidiary Guarantor (except for payment in full (other than contingent indemnity obligations)). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to applicable law, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

(a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Subsidiary Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(b) any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Notes, if any, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(c) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(d) any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, any Lender or Agent or other Secured Party as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be valid, perfected or have the priority required under the Loan Documents; or

(e) the release of any other Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.09.

The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby expressly waive, to the extent permitted by law, diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor(s) under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. The Subsidiary Guarantors waive, to the extent permitted by law, any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between Borrower and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment and performance without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Parties, and the obligations and liabilities of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other Person at any time of any right or remedy against Borrower or against any other Person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Subsidiary Guarantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding.

Section 7.03 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Article VII shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of Borrower or other Loan Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

Section 7.04 Subrogation; Subordination. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that until the payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) and the termination of the Commitments of the Lenders under this Agreement it shall waive any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 7.01, whether by subrogation or otherwise, against Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Any Indebtedness of any Loan Party permitted pursuant to Section 6.01(d) shall be subordinated to such Loan Party’s Secured Obligations in the manner set forth in the Intercompany Note evidencing such Indebtedness.

Section 7.05 Remedies. The Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, and the other Loan Documents may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 8.01 (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Section 8.01) for purposes of Section 7.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against Borrower and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for purposes of Section 7.01.

Section 7.06 Instrument for the Payment of Money. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the guarantee in this Article VII constitutes an instrument for the payment of money, and consents and agrees that any Lender or Agent, at its sole option, in the event of a dispute by such Subsidiary Guarantor in the payment of any moneys due hereunder, shall have the right to bring a motion-action under New York CPLR Section 3213.

Section 7.07 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article VII is a continuing guarantee of payment and performance, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

Section 7.08 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other Legal Requirement affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 7.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 7.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 7.10) that is valid and enforceable, not void or voidable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

Section 7.09 Release of Guarantors. If, in compliance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents, all or substantially all of the Equity Interests of any Subsidiary Guarantor are sold or otherwise transferred (a “Transferred Guarantor”) to a Person or Persons (other than any Company), such Transferred Guarantor shall, effective immediately upon the consummation of such sale or transfer, be automatically released from its obligations under this Agreement (including under Section 10.03 hereof) and its obligations to pledge and grant any Collateral owned by it pursuant to any Security Document and the pledge of such Equity Interests to the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Agreements shall be automatically released, and, so long as Borrower shall have provided the Agents such certifications or documents as any Agent shall reasonably request, the Collateral Agent shall take such actions as are necessary to effect each release described in this Section 7.09 in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Security Documents, so long as Borrower shall have provided the Agents such certifications or documents as any Agent shall reasonably request in order to demonstrate compliance with this Agreement.

Section 7.10 Right of Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Subsidiary Guarantor shall have paid more than its proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its proportionate share of such payment, in an amount not to exceed the highest amount that would be valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate, limited partnership or limited liability law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally. Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 7.04. The provisions of this Section 7.10 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for the full amount guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

Section 7.11 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Loan Party, jointly and severally, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by any other Loan Party hereunder to honor all of such Loan Party’s obligations under this Agreement in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Loan Party shall only be liable under this Section 7.11 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 7.11, or otherwise under this Agreement, voidable under applicable law, including applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Loan Party under this Section 7.11 shall remain in full force and effect for so long as this Agreement shall remain in effect and until the Commitments have been terminated and the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on each Loan, all Fees and all other expenses or amounts payable under any Loan Document (including all of the Guaranteed Obligations) shall have been paid in full (other than contingent indemnification obligations). Each Qualified ECP Loan Party intends that this Section 7.11 constitute, and this Section 7.11 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

101

(l) any Loan Document or any material provisions thereof shall at any time and for any reason (other than as expressly permitted under such Loan Document or upon payment in full of all of the Secured Obligations) be declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be null and void, or a proceeding shall be commenced by or on behalf of any Loan Party or by any other Person, or by any Governmental Authority, seeking to establish the invalidity or unenforceability thereof (exclusive of questions of interpretation of any provision thereof), or any Loan Party shall directly or indirectly repudiate, revoke, terminate or rescind (or purport to do any of the foregoing) or deny any portion of its liability or obligation for the Obligations; or

(m) there shall have occurred a Change in Control;

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to Borrower described in paragraph (g) or (h) above), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders, shall, by notice to Borrower, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate forthwith the Commitments; (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be forthwith due and payable in whole or in part, whereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder (including payments of Prepayment Premiums) and under any other Loan Document, shall become forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding; and (iii) exercise any and all of its other rights and remedies under applicable Legal Requirements, hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and, in any event, with respect to Borrower described in paragraph (g) or (h) above, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and any unpaid accrued Fees and all other liabilities of the Loan Parties accrued hereunder (including payments of Prepayment Premiums) and under any other Loan Document, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or any other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors, anything contained herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding.

In addition, without limiting the foregoing, in the event of a foreclosure (or other similar exercise of remedies) by Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and, in addition, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of all of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or other disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by Collateral Agent at such sale.

Section 8.02 Rescission. If at any time after termination of the Commitments or acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, the Loan Parties shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account of principal of the Loans owing by them that shall have become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on principal and, to the extent permitted by law, on overdue interest, at the rates specified herein) and all Defaults (other than non-payment of principal of and accrued interest on the Loans due and payable solely by virtue of acceleration) shall be remedied or waived pursuant to Section 10.02, then upon the written consent of the Required Lenders (which may be given or withheld in their sole discretion) and written notice to Borrower, the termination of the Commitments or the acceleration and their consequences may be rescinded and annulled, but such action shall not affect any subsequent Default or impair any right or remedy consequent thereon. The provisions of the preceding sentence are intended merely to bind the Lenders and the other Secured Parties to a decision that may be made at the election of the Required Lenders, and such provisions are not intended to benefit Borrower and the other Loan Parties and do not give Borrower and/or any of the Loan Parties the right to require the Lenders to rescind or annul any acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.

102

Section 8.03 Equity Cure.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.01, but subject to Sections 8.03(b), (c) and (d), solely for the purpose of determining whether an Event of Default has occurred under the Financial Covenants set forth in Section 6.10 as of the end of any fiscal quarter (such fiscal quarter, a “Cure Quarter”), any equity contribution (in the form of Qualified Capital Stock) made to the Borrower after the last day of such Cure Quarter and on or prior to the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b) with respect to such applicable fiscal quarter (the “Cure Expiration Date”), and such cash will, if so designated by Borrower, be included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA for the purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Covenants set forth in Section 6.10 at the end of such fiscal quarter and the subsequent three fiscal quarters (any such equity contribution so included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA, an “Equity Cure Contribution”, and the amount of such Equity Cure Contribution, the “Cure Amount”); provided that (i) such Equity Cure Contribution is not used to increase the Cumulative Amount, (ii) such Cure Amount does not exceed the amount necessary to cure any Event of Default under the Financial Covenants as at the end of such applicable fiscal quarter and (iii) the proceeds of such Equity Cure Contribution shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10(d)(ii) to prepay the Loans. All Equity Cure Contributions shall be disregarded for all purposes of this Agreement other than inclusion in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA for the purpose of determining compliance with the Financial Covenants set forth in Section 6.10 at the end of such fiscal quarter and the subsequent three fiscal quarters, including the determination of the Cumulative Amount and all components thereof and any baskets with respect to the covenants contained in Article VI. Any reduction in Indebtedness (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.10(d)(ii)) with the proceeds of any Equity Cure Contribution shall be ignored for purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Covenants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.01, (A) upon receipt of the Cure Amount by Borrower in an amount necessary to cause Borrower to be in compliance with the Financial Covenants under Section 6.10 at the end of such fiscal quarter, the Financial Covenants under Section 6.10 shall be deemed satisfied and complied with as of the end of the relevant fiscal quarter with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply with the Financial Covenants under Section 6.10 and any Default or Event of Default related to any failure to comply with the Financial Covenants under Section 6.10 shall be deemed not to have occurred for purposes of the Loan Documents, (B) upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Intent to Cure prior to the Cure Expiration Date, no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred on the basis of any failure to comply with the Financial Covenants under Section 6.10 until such failure is not cured pursuant to the Notice of Intent to Cure on or prior to the Cure Expiration Date and (C) upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Intent to Cure prior to the Cure Expiration Date, none of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall exercise the right to accelerate the Loans or to foreclose on the Collateral solely on the basis of an Event of Default having occurred as a result of a violation of the Financial Covenants set forth in Section 6.10.

103

(b) In each period of four consecutive fiscal quarters, (x) there shall be at least two consecutive fiscal quarters in which no Equity Cure Contribution is made and (y) there shall not be any Equity Cure Contributions made in any two consecutive fiscal quarters.

(d) No Equity Cure Contribution for any fiscal quarter shall be greater than $2,000,000.

Section 8.04 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, in full or in part, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, promptly by the Collateral Agent as follows:

(a) First, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all reasonable and documented costs and expenses, fees, commissions and taxes of such sale, collection or other realization (including compensation to the Collateral Agent, the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel, and all expenses, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent in connection therewith and all amounts for which the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent is entitled to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of any Loan Document), together with interest on each such amount at the highest rate then in effect under this Agreement from and after the date such amount is due, owing or unpaid until paid in full;

(b) Second, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all other reasonable and documented costs and expenses of such sale, collection or other realization (including compensation to the other Secured Parties and their agents and counsel and all costs, liabilities and advances made or incurred by the other Secured Parties in connection therewith), together with interest on each such amount at the highest rate then in effect under this Agreement from and after the date such amount is due, owing or unpaid until paid in full;

(c) Third, without duplication of amounts applied pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash, pro rata, of interest due in respect of the Obligations, in each case equally and ratably in accordance with the respective amounts thereof then due and owing;

(d) Fourth, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash, pro rata, of the principal amount of the Obligations in respect of the Credit Facilities;

(e) Fifth, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of Secured Obligations of the type specified in clause (b) of the definition of Secured Obligations then due and owing, pro rata;

(f) Sixth, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the remaining Secured Obligations then due and owing, pro rata; and

(g) Seventh, the balance, if any, to the Person lawfully entitled thereto (including the applicable Loan Party or its successors or assigns) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.

In the event that any such proceeds are insufficient to pay in full the items described in clauses (a) through (g) of this Section 8.04, the Loan Parties shall remain liable, jointly and severally, for any deficiency.

104

ARTICLE IX

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE COLLATERAL AGENT

Section 9.01 Appointment. j) Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent as an agent of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent, in such capacity, through its agents or employees, to take such actions on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are delegated to such Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article IX are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provisions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and any rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. In performing its functions and duties hereunder, each Agent shall act solely as an agent of the Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral 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 merely as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) Each Lender irrevocably appoints each other Lender as its agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting Liens (whether pursuant to Section 8-301(a)(2) of the UCC or otherwise), for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in assets in which, in accordance with the UCC or any other applicable Legal Requirement a security interest can be perfected by possession or control. Should any Lender (other than the Collateral Agent) obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof, and, promptly following the Collateral Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions.

Section 9.02 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as an Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Company or Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder and without duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

105

Section 9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02); provided that no Agent shall be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability, if the Agent is not indemnified to its satisfaction, or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Legal Requirements including, for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Insolvency Law or that may effect a foreclosure, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender under any Debtor Relief Law, and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose or shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Company or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as such Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as any Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof describing such default is given to such Agent by Borrower or a Lender, and no Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent may from time to time use one or more outside service providers for the tracking of all UCC financing statements (and/or other collateral related filings and registrations from time to time) required to be filed or recorded pursuant to the Loan Documents and the notification to the Administrative Agent, of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or expiration thereof, and that each of such service providers will be deemed to be acting at the request and on behalf of Borrower and the other Loan Parties. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by any such service provider. Neither any Agent nor any of its officers, partners, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or omitted by any Agent under or in connection with any of the Loan Documents.

Section 9.04 Reliance by Agent. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent, or otherwise authenticated by a proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally and believed by it to be made by a proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, each Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless each Agent shall have received written notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for Borrower), independent accountants and other Advisors selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or Advisors.

Section 9.05 Delegation of Duties. Each Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document by or through, or delegate any and all such rights and powers to, any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Affiliates. The exculpatory, indemnification and other provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply, without limiting the foregoing, to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Agent. The Agents shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that such Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.

106

Section 9.06 Successor Agent. Each Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least 10 days’ prior notice to the Lenders and Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the written consent of Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 10 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent with the written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, which successor shall be a commercial banking institution organized under the laws of the United States (or any State thereof) or a United States branch or agency of a commercial banking institution, in each case, having combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000; provided that if such retiring Agent is unable to find a commercial banking institution that is willing to accept such appointment and which meets the qualifications set forth above, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the retiring (or retired) Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent.

Upon the acceptance of its appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring (or retired) Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. The fees payable by Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Borrower and such successor. After an Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Affiliates in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Agent.

Section 9.07 Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, conducted its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries and made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender further represents and warrants that it has reviewed each document made available to it on the Platform in connection with this Agreement and has acknowledged and accepted the terms and conditions applicable to the recipients thereof (including any such terms and conditions set forth, or otherwise maintained, on the Platform with respect thereto). Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their respective Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 9.08 Named Agents. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Arranger holds such title in name only, and that such title confers no additional rights or obligations relative to those conferred on any Lender hereunder.

107

Section 9.09 Indemnification. The Lenders severally agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such and each of its Related Parties (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrower or the Subsidiary Guarantors and without limiting the obligation of Borrower or the Subsidiary Guarantors to do so), ratably according to their respective outstanding Loans and Commitments in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 9.09 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which all Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such outstanding Loans and Commitments as in effect immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, fines, penalties, actions, claims, suits, judgments, litigations, investigations, inquiries or proceedings, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent or Related Party in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein, the Transactions or any of the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent or Related Party under or in connection with any of the foregoing (IN ALL CASES, WHETHER OR NOT CAUSED OR ARISING, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, OUT OF THE COMPARATIVE, CONTRIBUTORY OR SOLE NEGLIGENCE OF ANY AGENT OR RELATED PARTY); provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, claims, suits, judgments, litigations, investigations, inquiries or proceedings, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have directly resulted solely and directly from such Agent’s or Related Party’s, as the case may be, gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 9.09 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 9.10 Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other reason, or if Administrative Agent reasonably determines that a payment was made to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement without deduction of applicable withholding tax from such payment, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred.

Section 9.11 Lender’s Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgements. k) Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with Credit Extensions hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Borrower and its Subsidiaries. No Agent shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter, and no Agent shall have any responsibility with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided to the Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent or Related Party of any Agent has made any representation or warranty to it. Except for documents expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by an Agent to the Lenders, no Agent shall have any duty or responsibility (either express or implied) to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning any Loan Party, including the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, that may come in to the possession of an Agent or any of its Related Parties.

108

(b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement or an Assignment Agreement and funding its Loan, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be approved by any Agent, the Required Lenders or the Lenders, as applicable, on the Closing Date.

Section 9.12 Collateral Documents and Guarantee.

(a) Agents under Collateral Documents and Guarantee. Each Secured Party hereby further authorizes the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to be the agent for and representative of the Secured Parties with respect to the Guarantee, the Collateral and the Loan Documents; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall owe any fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or any other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Obligations with respect to any Hedging Agreement or any holder of Treasury Management Obligations. Subject to Section 10.02, without further written consent or authorization from any Secured Party, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, may execute any documents or instruments necessary to (i) in connection with a sale or disposition of assets permitted by this Agreement, release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of such sale or other disposition of assets or to which the Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.02) have otherwise consented or (ii) release any Subsidiary Guarantor from the Guarantee pursuant to Section 7.09 or with respect to which the Required Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.02) have otherwise consented.

(b) Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guarantee. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party hereby agree that (i) no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guarantee, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under any of the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof and all powers, rights and remedies under the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure or similar enforcement action by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code), the Collateral Agent (or any Lender, except with respect to a “credit bid” pursuant to Section 363(k), Section 1129(b)(2)(a)(ii) or otherwise of the Bankruptcy Code,) may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, upon instructions from the Required Lenders, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale or disposition, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale or other disposition.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any Affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Hedging Agreement or a holder of Treasury Management Obligations) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in any Collateral subject to any disposition permitted by the Loan Documents, and to release any guarantee obligations under any Loan Document of any Person subject to such disposition, to the extent necessary to permit consummation of such disposition in accordance with the Loan Documents.

109

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, when all Obligations (other than obligations in respect of any Hedging Agreement or Treasury Management Obligations) have been paid in full and all Commitments have terminated or expired, upon request of Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall (without notice to, or vote or consent of, any Lender, or any Affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Hedging Agreement or a holder of Treasury Management Obligations) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations provided for in any Loan Document, whether or not on the date of such release there may be outstanding Obligations in respect of Hedging Agreements or Treasury Management Obligations. Any such release of guarantee obligations shall be deemed subject to the provision that such guarantee obligations shall be reinstated if after such release any portion of any payment in respect of the Obligations guaranteed thereby shall be rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

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

Section 9.13 Administrative Agent May File Bankruptcy Disclosure and Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file a verified statement pursuant to Rule 2019 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure that, in its sole opinion, complies with such Rule’s disclosure requirements for entities representing more than one creditor;

(b) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.03 and 10.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

110

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under this Agreement out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Lenders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

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

Any party hereto may change its address, facsimile number or e-mail address for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. The Administrative Agent or Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it, provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (A) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgment); provided that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient, and (B) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (A) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

(b) Posting. Each Loan Party hereby agrees that it will provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and any other Loan Document, including all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such communication that (i) provides a Notice of Intent to Cure or (ii) provides notice of any Default under this Agreement (all such non-excluded communications, collectively, the “Communications”), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent at the e-mail address(es) provided to Borrower by the Administrative Agent from time to time or in such other form, including hard copy delivery thereof, as the Administrative Agent shall require. In addition, each Loan Party agrees to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent in the manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in such other form, including hard copy delivery thereof, as the Administrative Agent shall require. Nothing in this Section 10.01 shall prejudice the right of the Agents, any Lender or any Loan Party to give any notice or other communication pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any other manner specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or as any such Agent shall require.

111

(c) To the extent consented to by the Administrative Agent in writing from time to time, the Administrative Agent agrees that receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address(es) set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents.

(d) Each Loan Party further agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the other Agents or the Lenders by posting the Communications on a Platform. The Platform and any Approved Electronic Communications are provided “as is” and “as available.” The Agents do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of the Communications, or the adequacy of the Platform and expressly disclaim liability for errors or omissions in the Platform and the Approved Electronic Communications. No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent in connection with the Communications or the Platform. In no event shall any Agent have any liability to any Loan Party, any Lender or any other Person for damages of any kind, whether or not based on strict liability and including direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or related to any Loan Party’s or any Agent’s transmissions of Communications through Internet (including the Platform). Notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. Each Loan Party understands that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution and agrees and assumes the risks associated with such electronic distribution, except to the extent caused by the willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Administrative Agent, as determined by a final, non‑appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(e) The Administrative Agent agrees that the receipt of the Communications by the Administrative Agent at its e-mail address shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees that receipt of notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that the Communications have been posted to the Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address. Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

(f) Each Loan Party, each Lender and each Agent agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, store any Approved Electronic Communications on the Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s customary document retention procedures and policies.

(g) Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including United States federal and state securities laws, to make reference to information that is not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain Material Non-Public Information. In the event that any Public Lender has determined for itself to not access any information disclosed through the Platform or otherwise, such Public Lender acknowledges that (i) other Lenders may have availed themselves of such information and (ii) neither Borrower nor the Administrative Agent has any responsibility for such Public Lender’s decision to limit the scope of the information it has obtained in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

112

Section 10.02 Waivers; Amendment. m) No failure or delay by any Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of each Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by Section 10.02(b), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether any Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on Borrower or any other Loan Party in any case shall entitle Borrower or any other Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Subject to Section 2.16(c) and Section 10.02(c) and (d), neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended, supplemented or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Borrower and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent (in the case of any Security Document) and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the written consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall:

(i) increase or extend the expiry date of the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that no amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any condition precedent, covenant or Default (or any definition used, respectively, therein) shall constitute an increase in or extension of the expiry date of the Commitment of any Lender for purposes of this clause (i));

(ii) reduce the principal amount or premium, if any, of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than interest pursuant to Section 2.06(c)), or reduce any Fees payable hereunder, or change the form or currency of payment of any Obligation, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (it being understood that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (ii));

(iii) postpone or extend the maturity of any Loan, or any scheduled date of payment of or the installment otherwise due on the principal amount of any Term Loan under Section 2.09, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment (other than a waiver of any increase in the interest rate pursuant to Section 2.06(c)), or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

113

(iv) change Section 2.10(g), Section 2.14(b) or (c) or Section 8.04 in a manner that would alter the order of or the pro rata sharing of payments or setoffs required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender;

(v) change the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document (including this Section 10.02) specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be);

(vi) release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their respective Guarantees (except as expressly provided in Article VII), or limit their liability in respect of such Guarantees, without the written consent of each Lender;

(vii) except as expressly permitted in this Agreement or any Security Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents or alter the relative priorities of the Secured Obligations entitled to the Liens of the Security Documents (except in connection with securing additional Secured Obligations equally and ratably with the other Secured Obligations), in each case without the written consent of each Lender;

(viii) change any provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely and directly affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of any Class materially differently than those holding Loans of any other Class, without the written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each directly affected Class;

(ix) change the order of application of prepayments among Term Loans under Section 2.10(g) without the consent of the Required Lenders holding more than 50% of the principal amount of the outstanding Term Loans;

(x) change Section 10.04(b) in a manner which further restricts assignments thereunder without the written consent of each Lender;

(xi) subordinate the Obligations under the Loan Documents to any other Indebtedness without the written consent of each Lender;

provided, further, that (1) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be and (2) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms directly affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of the Lenders holding any Class of Incremental Commitments (but not the other Lenders) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Borrower and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section 10.02 if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of this Agreement may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by Borrower, the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent if (x) by the terms of such agreement the Commitment of each Lender not consenting to the amendment provided for therein shall terminate upon the effectiveness of such amendment, (y) at the time such amendment becomes effective, each Lender not consenting thereto receives payment in full of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest accrued on each Loan made by it and all other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement, and (z) Section 2.16(b) is complied with.

114

(c) Without the consent of any other Person, the applicable Loan Party or Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent may (in its or their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by applicable Legal Requirements to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or assets so that the security interests therein comply with applicable Legal Requirements.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and Borrower (1) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (2) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and (ii) Borrower and the Administrative Agent may enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.19 and/or Section 2.20, as applicable.

Section 10.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. n) The Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, to pay, promptly upon demand:

(i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Arranger, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Advisors for the Arranger, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, in connection with the syndication of the Loans and Commitments, the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, the administration of the Credit Extensions and Commitments (including without limitation, any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees or expenses related to the Administrative Agent obtaining a Debt Rating in its discretion, provided that such fees and expenses relating to such Debt Ratings do not exceed $30,000 in the aggregate in any fiscal year of the Borrower), the perfection and maintenance of the Liens securing the Collateral (including, without limitation, conducting Collateral audits from time to time) and any actual or proposed amendment, supplement or waiver of any of the Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated);

(ii) all documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, including the fees, charges and disbursements of Advisors for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, in connection with any action, claim, suit, litigation, investigation, inquiry or proceeding affecting the Collateral or any part thereof, in which action, claim, suit, litigation, investigation, inquiry or proceeding the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is made a party or participates or in which the right to use the Collateral or any part thereof is threatened, or in which it becomes necessary in the judgment of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent to defend or uphold the Liens granted by the Security Documents (including any action, claim, suit, litigation, investigation, inquiry or proceeding to establish or uphold the compliance of the Collateral with any Legal Requirements);

115

(iii) all documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of Advisors for any of the foregoing, incurred in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights under the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section 10.03(a), or in connection with the Loans made hereunder and the collection of the Secured Obligations, including all such costs and expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of the Secured Obligations; and

(iv) all Other Taxes in respect of the Loan Documents.

(b) The Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify the Agents, the Arranger, the Documentation Agent, each Lender and each of their respective Related Parties (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, fees, fines, penalties, actions, judgments, suits and related expenses, including reasonable Advisors fees, charges and disbursements (collectively, “Claims”), incurred by, imposed on or asserted against any Indemnitee, directly or indirectly, arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution, delivery, performance, administration or enforcement of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby or the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder, (ii) any actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Loans, (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto, (iv) any actual or alleged presence or Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials, on, at, under or from any property owned, leased or operated by any Company at any time, or any Environmental Claim or threatened Environmental Claim related in any way to any Company, (v) any past, present or future non-compliance with, or violation of, Environmental Laws or Environmental Permits applicable to any Company, or any Company’s business, or any property presently or formerly owned, leased, or operated by any Company or their predecessors in interest, (vi) the environmental condition of any property owned, leased, or operated by any Company at any time, or the applicability of any Legal Requirements relating to such property, whether or not occasioned wholly or in part by any condition, accident or event caused by any act or omission of any Company, (vii) the imposition of any environmental Lien encumbering any Real Property, (viii) the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby (including the syndication of the Credit Facilities) or (ix) any actual or prospective action, claim, suit, litigation, investigation, inquiry or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Loan Party or otherwise, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such Claims are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have directly resulted solely from (1) the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (2) a dispute solely among the Indemnitees and do not arise as a result of any act or omission of any Loan Party, other than Claims against any Agent, in its capacity as such or in fulfilling its role as an Agent.

(c) The Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, that, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and any affected Lender, which consent(s) will not be unreasonably withheld, the Loan Parties will not enter into any settlement of a Claim in respect of the subject matter of clauses (i) through (ix) of Section 10.03(b) unless such settlement includes an explicit and unconditional release from the party bringing such Claim of all Indemnitees.

116

(d) The provisions of this Section 10.03 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans and any other Secured Obligations, the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor or of all or any portion of the Collateral, 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 Agents or any Lender. All amounts due under this Section 10.03 shall be accompanied by reasonable documentation with respect to any reimbursement, indemnification or other amount requested.

(e) To the extent that the Loan Parties fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required to be paid by them to the Agents under Sections 10.03(a) or (b) in accordance with Section 10.03(g), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agents, such Lender’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (such indemnity shall be effective whether or not the related losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses are incurred or asserted by any party hereto or any third party); provided that the unreimbursed Claim was incurred by or asserted against any of the Agents in its capacity as such. For purposes of this Section 10.03(e), a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time.

(f) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, no Loan Party shall assert, and each Loan Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, exemplary, consequential, or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

(g) All amounts due under this Section 10.03 shall be payable not later than 10 Business Days after demand therefor.

Section 10.04 Successors and Assigns. o) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Loan Parties may not assign or otherwise transfer any of their respective rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Lender, which consent may be withheld in their respective sole discretion (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Loan Party without such consent shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, express or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent expressly provided in Section 10.04(e) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the other Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b) Any Lender shall have the right at any time to assign to one or more assignees (other than to (x) any Company or any Affiliate thereof, (y) a natural Person or (z) a Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

117

(i) Minimum Amounts. Except in the case of (x) an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, (y) any assignment made in connection with the syndication of the Commitments and Loans by the Arranger or (z) an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Term Loan Commitment or Term Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption or a Borrower Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless approved by the Administrative Agent;

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, except that this clause (ii) shall not (x) be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except:

(A) Except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, the Administrative Agent must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), provided that (but subject to the other restrictions set forth in this Section 10.04), no such consent shall be required in connection with the assignment of Term Loans during the continuance of an Event of Default;

(B) [Reserved];

(D) in the case of an assignment of all or a portion of any Loan or Commitment (except in the case of (A) an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, or (B) any assignment made in connection with the syndication of the Commitments and Loans by the Arranger), Borrower must give its prior written consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); provided that Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within 10 Business Days after having received notice thereof.

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

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

118

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any consent of Borrower otherwise required under Section 10.04(b) shall not be required. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 10.04(c), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement (provided that any liability of Borrower to such assignee under Section 2.12, 2.13 or 2.15 shall be limited to the amount, if any, that would have been payable thereunder by Borrower in the absence of such assignment, except to the extent any such amounts are attributable to a Change in Law occurring after the date of such assignment), and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15 and 10.03); provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption or a Borrower Assignment and Assumption, as applicable, delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error, and Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower, the Collateral Agent and any Lender (with respect to its own interest only), at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee and, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 10.04(b)(iv) and any written consent to such assignment required by Section 10.04(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 10.04(d). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with the requirements of this Section 10.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.04(e).

119

(e) Any Lender shall have the right at any time, without the consent of, or notice to Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Person to sell participations to any Person (other than any Company or any Affiliate thereof or a natural Person) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of the Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) is described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of the proviso to Section 10.02(b) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 10.04(f), each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.12, 2.13 and 2.15 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.04(b). To the extent permitted by Legal Requirements, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees in writing to be subject to Section 2.14(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender shall, acting for this purpose as an agent of Borrower, maintain at one of its offices a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of its Participants, and the amount and terms of its participations (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender (and Borrower, to the extent that the Participant requests payment from Borrower) shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) 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.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.12, 2.13 or 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the prior written consent of Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) or the greater payment results from a Change in Law after the date the participation was sold to the Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.15 unless Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of Borrower, to comply with Section 2.15(f) as though it were a Lender.

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 10.04(g) shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. Without limiting the foregoing, in the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans or similar extensions of credit, such Lender may, without the consent of Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, collaterally assign or pledge all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, including the Loans and Notes or any other instrument evidencing its rights as a Lender under this Agreement, to any holder of, trustee for, or any other representative of holders of, obligations owed or securities issued, by such fund, as security for such obligations or securities.

120

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and Borrower, the option to provide to Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to such Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof; provided further that nothing herein shall make the SPC a “Lender” for the purposes of this Agreement, obligate Borrower or any other Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to deal with such SPC directly, obligate Borrower or any other Loan Party in any manner to any greater extent than they were obligated to the Granting Lender, or increase costs or expenses of Borrower. The Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to deal solely with, and obtain good discharge from, the Granting Lender and shall not be required to investigate or otherwise seek the consent or approval of any SPC, including for the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.04(h), any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by Borrower and the Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(i) The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Legal Requirement, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

Section 10.05 Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the reports, certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Agents or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Obligation is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Article IX and Sections 2.12 to 2.15, 9.06, 10.03 and 10.08 to 10.10 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the Transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

121

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

Section 10.07 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.08 Right of Setoff; Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness. The rights of each Lender under this Section 10.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. None of any Agent or any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Loan Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Loan Party makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders), or any Agent or Lender enforces any security interests or exercises any right of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any Debtor Relief Law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

Section 10.09 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. p) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice of law principles that would apply the laws of another jurisdiction.

122

(b) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Legal Requirements. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any other Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in Section 10.09(b). Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, in the manner provided for notices (other than facsimile or email) in Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Legal Requirements.

Section 10.10 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS OR THE OTHER TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.10.

Section 10.11 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 shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

123

Section 10.12 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ and Approved Funds’ directors, officers, employees, agents, Advisors and other representatives, including accountants, legal counsel and other Advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential pursuant to the terms hereof), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or any quasi-regulatory authority (such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable Legal Requirements or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies under the Loan Documents or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.12, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its Advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Borrower and its obligations, or (iii) any actual or prospective investor in an SPC, (g) with the written consent of Borrower, (h) to any rating agency when required by it, (i) to an investor or prospective investor in securities issued by an Approved Fund of any Lender that also agrees that Information shall be used solely for the purpose of evaluating an investment in such securities issued by an Approved Fund of any Lender or to a trustee, collateral manager, servicer, backup servicer, noteholder or secured party in securities issued by an Approved Fund of any Lender in connection with the administration, servicing and reporting on the assets serving as collateral for securities issued by such Approved Fund, or (j) to the extent such Information (x) is publicly available at the time of disclosure or becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.12 or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrower or any Subsidiary. In addition, each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and the information about this Agreement to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans, market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. For the purposes of this Section 10.12, “Information” shall mean all information received from any Loan Party or any of its Advisors relating to Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or its business, other than any such information that is publicly available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender prior to disclosure by Borrower. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.12 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

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

124

Section 10.14 Assignment and Assumption. Each Lender to become a party to this Agreement (other than the Administrative Agent and any other Lender that is a signatory hereto) shall do so by delivering to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption duly executed by such Lender, Borrower (if Borrower consent to such assignment is required hereunder) and the Administrative Agent.

Section 10.15 Obligations Absolute. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

This filing relates to that certain Jobs Tax Credit Agreement, dated as of June 22, 2011 (the “Tax Agreement”), between Merge Healthcare Incorporated (“Merge”) and the Wisconsin Department of Commerce (the “State”), pursuant to which the State has provided Merge with eligibility to receive up to $500,000 in tax benefits that are available to Merge from June 1, 2010 until May 31, 2013. Merge’s eligibility to take and retain such tax benefits is conditioned upon Merge maintaining at least 163 full-time positions in Hartland, Wisconsin for a period of five years from June 1, 2010. Pursuant to Section 5 of the Tax Agreement, if Merge fails to maintain such full-time positions in Hartland, Wisconsin for more than 30 days following notice of such failure from the State, then the State may terminate the Tax Agreement and, upon demand to Merge, recover from Merge the amount of the tax credits disbursed to Merge. To evidence this contingent obligation to repay such tax credits, Merge issued in favor of the State a Promissory Note in the principal amount of $500,000 with an interest rate of 2% per annum, which Promissory Note is payable in 59 monthly installments of $9,622.00 beginning on January 1, 2016 if Merge fails to maintain the required number of full-time positions in Hartland, Wisconsin pursuant to the terms of the Tax Agreement. However, by its terms, the Promissory Note is forgiven in full retroactive to June 1, 2010 if Merge maintains such required full-time positions in Hartland, Wisconsin for the full five-year period.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in any other Loan Document or in any other promissory note or other instrument, this Promissory Note (i) replaces and supersedes any and all promissory notes or other instruments which create or evidence any loans or advances made on or before the date hereof by any Payee to any other Group Member, and (ii) shall not be deemed replaced, superseded or in any way modified by any promissory note or other instrument entered into on or after the date hereof which purports to create or evidence any loan or advance by any Payee to any other Group Member.

THIS PROMISSORY NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS PROMISSORY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

The terms and provisions of this Promissory Note are severable, and if any term or provision shall be determined to be superseded, illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable in whole or in part pursuant to applicable Legal Requirements by a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, such determination shall not in any manner impair or otherwise affect the validity, legality or enforceability of that term or provision in any other jurisdiction or any of the remaining terms and provisions of this Promissory Note in any jurisdiction.
