On the Closing Date on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Tranche B Lender severally agrees to make a term loan (each a “Tranche B Loan”) to Company in an amount not to exceed such Lender’s Tranche B Commitment in effect at such time, which Tranche B Loan shall be available in Dollars to Company pursuant to such Lender’s pro rata share of the Tranche B Commitments. Amounts of Tranche B Loans repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.

2.2 Intentionally Omitted.

(b) Each Lender shall make its Tranche B Term Loans available to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Closing Date, by wire transfer of same day funds in Dollars at Administrative Agent’s Principal Office. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of the Loans available to Company on the Closing Date by causing an amount of same day funds in Dollars equal to the proceeds of all such Tranche B Term Loans received by Administrative Agent from Tranche B Lenders to be credited to the account of Company at Administrative Agent’s Principal Office or to such other account(s) as may be designated in writing to Administrative Agent by Company.

2.4 Issuance of Synthetic Letters of Credit.

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Company may request the issuance of a Synthetic Letter of Credit at any time and from time to time during the Synthetic L/C Availability Period, in each case for its own account or for the account of Company or any Domestic Guarantor (in which case Company and such Guarantor shall be co-applicants with respect to such Synthetic Letter of Credit) in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank. Each Synthetic Letter of Credit shall be (i) denominated in Dollars, (ii) the stated amount of each Letter of Credit shall not be less than $20,000 or such lesser amount as is acceptable to Issuing Bank, (iii) after giving effect to such issuance, in no event shall the Synthetic Letter of Credit Undrawn Amount exceed the Total Credit-Linked Deposit at such time, and (iv) in no event shall any Synthetic Letter of Credit have an expiration date later than as permitted by clause (c) below. This Section shall not be construed to impose an obligation upon Issuing Bank to issue any Synthetic Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In addition, any amendment, renewal or extension of an existing Synthetic Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms hereof shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. In order to request the issuance of a Synthetic Letter of Credit (or to amend, renew or extend an existing Synthetic Letter of Credit), Company shall hand deliver, fax or email to Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent (no less than three Business Days (or such shorter period of time acceptable to Issuing Bank) in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Synthetic Letter of Credit, or identifying the Synthetic Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the date on which such Synthetic Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with clause (c) below), the amount of such Synthetic Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such Synthetic Letter of Credit. A Synthetic Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if, and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each such Synthetic Letter of Credit, Company shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension the Synthetic L/C Undrawn Amount shall not exceed the Total Credit-Linked Deposit at such time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the issuance of Synthetic Letters of Credit shall also be subject to the other limitations set forth in this Section 2.4.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Synthetic Letter of Credit shall expire no later than the close of business on the Maturity Date. In no event shall any Synthetic Letter of Credit be issued if such Synthetic Letter of Credit is otherwise unacceptable to Issuing Bank in its reasonable discretion. In no event shall any Synthetic Letter of Credit be issued if prior to the issuance of such Synthetic Letter of Credit, Administrative Agent notifies the Issuing Bank that the conditions set forth in Section 3.3 have not been satisfied or waived in accordance with this Agreement.

(d) Participations. On the Closing Date, without any further action on the part of Issuing Bank or the Lenders, Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Synthetic L/C Lender with a Credit-Linked Deposit, and each such Lender with a Credit-Linked Deposit hereby acquires from Issuing Bank, a participation in each Synthetic Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Synthetic Letter of Credit. The aggregate purchase price for the participations of each Synthetic L/C Lender in Synthetic Letters of Credit shall equal the amount of the Credit-Linked Deposit of such Lender. Each Synthetic L/C Lender severally and not jointly agrees to pay to Administrative Agent its Credit-Linked Deposit in full on the Closing Date. If Issuing Bank shall not have received from Company the payment required to be made by Section 2.4(e) below within the time specified in such Section, Issuing Bank will promptly notify Administrative Agent of the Synthetic L/C Disbursement and Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Synthetic L/C Lender of such Synthetic L/C Disbursement and its Pro Rata Share thereof. Each Synthetic L/C Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees that if Issuing Bank makes a Synthetic L/C Disbursement which is not reimbursed by Company on the Reimbursement Date described in Section 2.4(e)(i), or is required to refund any reimbursement payment in respect of any Synthetic L/C Disbursement to Company for any reason, Administrative Agent shall reimburse Issuing Bank for the amount of such Synthetic L/C Disbursement, ratably as among the applicable Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares of the Total Credit-Linked Deposit, from such Lender’s Credit-Linked Deposit. Any such payment made from the Credit-Linked Deposit Account pursuant to the preceding sentence to reimburse Issuing Bank for any Synthetic L/C Disbursement shall not constitute a Loan and shall not release Company from its obligation to pay over to Administrative Agent in reimbursement thereof an amount equal to the amount paid from the Credit-Linked Deposit Account with respect to such Synthetic L/C Disbursement when due pursuant to Section 2.4(e)(ii), and such payment shall be deposited by Administrative Agent in the Credit-Linked Deposit Account to be added to the Credit-Linked Deposits of the Synthetic L/C Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. Each Synthetic L/C Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire and fund participations in respect of Synthetic Letters of Credit pursuant to this paragraph is unconditional and irrevocable and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the return of the Credit Linked Deposits, and that such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Without limiting the foregoing, each Synthetic L/C Lender irrevocably authorizes Administrative Agent to apply amounts of its Credit-Linked Deposit as provided in this paragraph. Without incurring any additional obligations hereunder, each Lender grants to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Issuing Bank a security interest in and Lien on such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Total Credit-Linked Deposit, together with all proceeds thereof, as security for such Lender’s obligation to reimburse Issuing Bank in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Agent and each Lender agrees that (i) Administrative Agent, as holder of the

Credit-Linked Deposit, is appointed and shall act as collateral agent for Issuing Bank in connection with the security interest granted to Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.4(d), (ii) Issuing Bank will be issuing, amending, renewing and extending Synthetic Letters of Credit in reliance on the availability of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Total Credit-Linked Deposit to discharge such Lender’s obligations in accordance with this Section 2.4 and (iii) all rights of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim of each Agent and Lender with respect the monies in the Credit-Linked Deposit Account are expressly subordinated to the reimbursement rights of Issuing Bank under this Section 2.4(d).

(e) Reimbursement. If Issuing Bank shall make any Synthetic L/C Disbursement in respect of a Synthetic Letter of Credit, Company shall at its option either (i) pay to Issuing Bank an amount equal to such Synthetic L/C Disbursement not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time on the Business Day immediately following the Business Day on which Company shall have received notice from Issuing Bank that payment of such draft will be made (the “Reimbursement Date”) or (ii) pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount equal to such Synthetic L/C Disbursement on or before the Maturity Date to the extent previously paid from a Credit-Linked Deposit.

(f) Obligations Absolute. Company’s obligations to reimburse Synthetic L/C Disbursements as provided in clause (e) above and the obligation of Administrative Agent to reimburse any Issuing Bank on behalf of the Lenders as provided in clause (d) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, and irrespective of:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Synthetic Letter of Credit or any Credit Document, or any term or provision therein;

(ii) any amendment or waiver of, or any consent to departure from, all or any of the provisions of any Synthetic Letter of Credit or any Credit Document;

(iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that Company, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, Company, any subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Synthetic Letter of Credit, Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender or any other person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

(iv) any draft or other document presented under a Synthetic Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(v) payment by Issuing Bank under a Synthetic Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Synthetic Letter of Credit; and

(vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of Issuing Bank, any Lender, Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other person or any

other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of Company’s obligations hereunder.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of Company hereunder to reimburse Synthetic L/C Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Issuing Bank. However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse Issuing Bank from liability to Company to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by Company to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by Company that are caused by Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Synthetic Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof; it is understood that Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Synthetic Letter of Credit (i) Issuing Bank’s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Synthetic Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Synthetic Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Synthetic Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Synthetic Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and (ii) Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Synthetic Letter of Credit with the terms thereof.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Synthetic Letter of Credit. Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic notification, confirmed by fax, to Administrative Agent and Company of such demand for payment and whether Issuing Bank has made or will make an Synthetic L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve Company of its obligation to reimburse Issuing Bank and the applicable Lenders with respect to any such Synthetic L/C Disbursement. Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender notice thereof.

(h) Interim Interest. If Issuing Bank shall make any Synthetic L/C Disbursement in respect of a Synthetic Letter of Credit, then, unless Company shall reimburse such Synthetic L/C Disbursement in full on the Reimbursement Date, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest payable to Administrative Agent for the account of the Synthetic L/C Lenders (or, prior to the reimbursement to Issuing Banks with respect thereto from Credit-Linked Deposit Accounts pursuant to Section 2.4(d), Issuing Banks) for each day from and including the date of such Synthetic L/C Disbursement to but excluding the date of payment by Company (or by Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (d) above) at the rate of interest which is 2% per annum in excess of the rate of interest otherwise payable hereunder with respect to Tranche B Term Loans that are LIBOR Loans with notional successive Interest Periods of one month

commencing from the Closing Date. Interest payable under this Section 2.4(h) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues and shall be payable upon demand by Administrative Agent or the date upon which Company reimburses such Synthetic L/C Disbursement in full.

(i) Resignation or Removal of Issuing Bank. Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Company. Subject to the next succeeding paragraph, upon the acceptance of any appointment as Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender that shall, with the consent of Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), agree to serve as successor Issuing Bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank and the retiring Issuing Bank shall be discharged from its obligations to issue additional Synthetic Letters of Credit hereunder. At the time such removal or resignation shall become effective, Company shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Section 2.11(b). The acceptance of any appointment as Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form satisfactory to Company and Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Credit Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or removal of Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with respect to Synthetic Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Synthetic Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Company shall, on the Business Day it receives notice from Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders thereof and of the amount to be deposited, deposit in an account with the Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 105% of the Synthetic L/C Undrawn Amount as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest and fees thereon. Such deposit shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of Company under this Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits in investments made at the option and sole discretion of Administrative Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Collateral Agent to reimburse Issuing Bank for Synthetic L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligation of Company for the Synthetic L/C Undrawn Amount at such time and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with Synthetic L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total Synthetic L/C Exposure), be applied to satisfy the Obligations. If Company is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to Company within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If Company is

required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.15, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to Company as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, Company would remain in compliance with Section 2.15 (and no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing). If Company is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.14(a), (b), (c) or (d), Company shall on the applicable date specified in Section 2.14(a), (b), (c) or (d), deposit an amount of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph up to the lesser of the aggregate undrawn face amount of all outstanding Synthetic Letters of Credit on such date and the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds being applied pursuant to Section 2.14(a), (b), (c) or (d).

(k) Additional Issuing Banks; Existing Letters of Credit. Company may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of the Agreement. Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Synthetic Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Synthetic Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Bank and such Lender. To the extent that any Person becomes an Issuing Bank hereunder which has, on the date thereof, issued outstanding letters of credit for the account Company, such letters of credit shall (subject to the conditions set forth of this Section 2.4(a)), with the agreement of Administrative Agent, Company and such Person be deemed issued as Synthetic Letters of Credit hereunder on such date.

(l) Credit-Linked Deposit Account. The Credit-Linked Deposits shall be held by the Administrative Agent in the Credit-Linked Deposit Account, the Credit-Linked Deposit Account shall be a Deposit Account at the Credit-Linked Deposit Bank in the name of Administrative Agent and under the sole dominion and control of Administrative Agent and no party other than Administrative Agent shall have a right of withdrawal from the Credit-Linked Deposit Account or any other right or power with respect to the Credit-Linked Deposits, except as expressly set forth herein. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the sole funding obligation of each Lender in respect of its participation in Synthetic Letters of Credit shall be satisfied in full upon the funding of its Credit-Linked Deposit on the Closing Date, subject in each case to Section 10.11.

(i) Each of Company, Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, the Credit-Linked Deposit Bank and each Lender having a Credit-Linked Deposit hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Lender is funding its Credit-Linked Deposit to Administrative Agent for application in the manner contemplated by this Section 2.4 and that Administrative Agent shall invest the Credit-Linked Deposits (except during periods when such Credit-Linked Deposits, or funds advanced by Administrative Agent against such Credit-Linked Deposits, are used to cover unreimbursed Synthetic L/C Disbursements) in its sole discretion and (without limiting the express obligations of each party hereto) at its sole risk. Any such interest so accrued on Credit-Linked Deposits (the “Credit-Linked Deposit Account Interest”) will be paid to the Lenders by Administrative Agent on each Credit-Linked Deposit Account Interest Payment Date.

(ii) Company shall have no right, title or interest in or to the Credit-Linked Deposits and no obligations with respect thereto (except for the reimbursement obligations provided in this Section 2.4), it being acknowledged and agreed by the parties hereto that the making of the Credit-Linked Deposits by the Lenders, the provisions of this Section 2.4(l) and the application of the Credit-Linked Deposits in the manner contemplated by this Section 2.4 constitute agreements among Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, the Credit-Linked Deposit Bank and each Lender with respect to the funding obligations of each Lender in respect of its participation in Synthetic Letters of Credit and do not constitute any loan or extension of credit to Company. The Credit-Linked Deposits shall not be the property of any Credit Party or constitute “Collateral” under any Credit Document or otherwise be available in any manner to satisfy any Obligation of any Credit Party.

(iii) Subject to Company’s compliance with the cash-collateralization requirements set forth herein, Administrative Agent shall return any remaining Credit-Linked Deposits to the Lenders following the occurrence of the Maturity Date or, to the extent there are no Synthetic Letters of Credit outstanding, upon a reduction of the Synthetic L/C Facility pursuant to Section 2.13 and 2.14.

(m) Existing Letters of Credit. Schedule 2.4(m) hereto contains a list of all synthetic letters of credit outstanding on the Closing Date pursuant to the Existing DIP Term Credit Facility. From and after the Closing Date, each such synthetic letter of credit, including any extension or renewal thereof shall constitute a “Synthetic Letter of Credit” issued for the account of Company, for all purposes of this Agreement, including, without limitation, calculations of Synthetic L/C Fees and Synthetic L/C Exposure.

2.5 Pro Rata Shares; Availability of Funds.

(a) Pro Rata Shares. All Loans shall be made, and all participations purchased, by Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata Shares, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation required hereby nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other Lender in such other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder or purchase a participation required hereby.

(b) Availability of Funds. Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the applicable Credit Date that such Lender does not intend to make available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender’s Loan requested on such Credit Date, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to Administrative Agent on such Credit Date and Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to, make available to Company a corresponding amount on such Credit Date. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by such Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and

thereafter at the Base Rate. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Company, and Company shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from such Credit Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the rate payable hereunder for Base Rate Loans for such Loans. Nothing in this Section 2.5(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Company may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

2.6 Use of Proceeds. Company shall utilize the proceeds of the Loans and, with respect to clause (iii) below, the Synthetic Letters of Credit, solely (i) to repay in full the amounts outstanding under the Existing DIP Term Credit Facility and repay a portion of the outstanding Revolving Credit Obligations under the Revolving DIP Credit Agreement, (ii) to pay related transaction costs, fees and expenses, (iii) to provide working capital and for other general corporate purposes from time to time for Company and its Subsidiaries, (iv) to pay interest, fees and expenses owing to the Agents and the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement, (v) to make adequate protection payments with the combined proceeds of the Revolving Facility and the Loans (the “Adequate Protection Portion”) up to the amount specified in the Interim Order or Final Order, as applicable; provided, however, that the Adequate Protection Portion to the extent not used for such purpose shall only be permitted to be used for another purpose to the extent approved in writing by Administrative Agent pursuant to an updated Closing Budget as provided in Section 5.1(p), (vi) for other pre-petition expenses that are approved by the Bankruptcy Court to the extent approved by Administrative Agent and (vii) to pay professionals’ fees and expenses in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases. Company shall not be permitted to use the proceeds of the Loans: (i) to make any adequate protection payments not required under the Interim Order or the Final Order and not approved by the Administrative Agent, (ii) to finance in any way any action, suit, arbitration, proceeding, application, motion or other litigation challenging the validity, perfection, priority, extent or enforceability of the Obligations or the Liens of Collateral Agent on the Collateral, (iii) to finance in any way any action, suit, arbitration, proceeding, application, motion or other litigation challenging the validity, perfection, priority, extent or enforceability of the obligations of Company under the Revolving DIP Credit Agreement or the Liens of the Revolving Collateral Agent on the Collateral, (iv) to make any distribution under a plan of reorganization in any Chapter 11 Case and (v) to make any payment in settlement of any claim, action or proceeding, before any court, arbitrator or other governmental body without the prior written consent of each of Administrative Agent. No portion of the proceeds of any Credit Extension shall be used in any manner that causes or might cause such Credit Extension or the application of such proceeds to violate Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X of the Board of Governors or any other regulation thereof or to violate the Exchange Act.

2.7 Evidence of Debt; Register; Lenders’ Books and Records; Notes.

(a) Lenders’ Evidence of Debt. Each Lender shall maintain on its internal records an account or accounts evidencing the Obligations of Company to such Lender, including the amounts of the Loans made by it and each repayment and prepayment in respect thereof. Any such recordation shall be conclusive and binding on Company, absent manifest error; provided, that the failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect any Lender’s Commitments or Company’s Obligations in respect of any

applicable Loans; and provided further, in the event of any inconsistency between the Register and any Lender’s records, the recordations in the Register shall govern.

(b) Administrative Agent’s Evidence of Debt. The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, (ii) the Synthetic L/C Exposure of each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Company to each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.7 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Company to repay the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Notes. If so requested by any Lender by written notice to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date or at any time thereafter, Company shall execute and deliver to such Lender (and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 10.6) on the Closing Date, (or, if such notice is delivered after two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, within three Business Days after Company’s receipt of such notice) a Note or Notes to evidence such Lender’s Loans and/or Credit-Linked Deposits.

2.8 Interest on Loans.

(a) Except as otherwise set forth herein, each Loan shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through repayment (whether by acceleration or otherwise) thereof as follows:

(i) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate plus 7.00% per annum or

(ii) if a LIBOR Loan, at the LIBOR Rate plus 10.00% per annum;

provided that, a portion of the interest on each Loan equal to the PIK Rate that has accrued during such period shall be capitalized on such interest payment date and added to the outstanding principal amount of each Loan (inclusive of any PIK Amount theretofore so added) and the interest otherwise payable in cash shall be reduced by the amount of interest so capitalized. For purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, the amounts so capitalized hereunder shall bear interest in accordance with this Section 2.8(a) as though such amounts constituted a Loan made by the Lenders hereunder.

(b) The basis for determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan, and the LIBOR Period with respect to any LIBOR Loan, shall be selected by Company and notified to Administrative Agent and Lenders pursuant to the applicable Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, as the case may be; provided, the Loans initially shall be made as Base Rate Loans. If on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which a Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice has not been delivered to Administrative Agent in

accordance with the terms hereof specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate of interest, then for that day such Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan.

(c) In connection with LIBOR Loans there shall be no more than 3 LIBOR Periods outstanding at any time. In the event Company fails to specify between a Base Rate Loan or a LIBOR Loan in any Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, the relevant Loan (if outstanding as a LIBOR Loan) will be automatically converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the then-current LIBOR Period for such Loan (or if outstanding as a Base Rate Loan will remain as, or (if not then outstanding) will be made as, a Base Rate Loan). In the event Company fails to specify a LIBOR Period for any LIBOR Loan in any Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice, Company shall be deemed to have selected a LIBOR Period of one month. As soon as practicable after 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date, Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the LIBOR Rate applicable to the relevant Loan for the applicable LIBOR Period and shall promptly give notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and each Lender.

(d) Interest payable pursuant to Section 2.8(a) shall be computed (i) in the case of Base Rate Loans, on the basis of a 360-day year, as the case may be, and (ii) in the case of all LIBOR Loans, on the basis of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the period during which it accrues. In computing interest on any Loan, the date of the making of such Loan or the first day of a LIBOR Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a LIBOR Loan, the date of conversion of such LIBOR Loan to such Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration date of a LIBOR Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted to a LIBOR Loan, the date of conversion of such Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan, as the case may be, shall be excluded; provided, if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day’s interest shall be paid on that Loan.

(e) Except as otherwise set forth herein, interest on each Loan (i) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with respect to interest accrued on and to each such payment date; (ii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears upon any prepayment of that Loan, whether voluntary or mandatory, to the extent accrued on the amount being prepaid; and (iii) shall accrue on a daily basis and shall be payable in arrears at maturity, including final maturity of the Loans.

2.9 Conversion/Continuation.

(a) Subject to Section 2.18 and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, Company shall have the option:

(i) to convert at any time all or any part of any Loans equal to $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount from one Type of Loan to another Type of Loan; provided, a LIBOR Loan may only be converted on the expiration of the LIBOR Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan unless Company shall pay all amounts due under Section 2.18 in connection with any such conversion; or

(ii) upon the expiration of any LIBOR Period applicable to any LIBOR Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $1,000,000, and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess of that amount as a LIBOR Loan.

(b) Company shall deliver a Conversion/Continuation Notice to Administrative Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least one Business Day in advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan) and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a LIBOR Loan).

Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.10 is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or any Lender.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, all Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds (other than from Current Asset Collateral to the extent such Net Insurance/Condemnation Proceeds are required to repay Revolving Loans or cash collateralize letters of credit under the Revolving DIP Credit Agreement) shall be applied by Administrative Agent to prepay the Loans as set forth in 2.16, reduce the Synthetic L/C Facility and provide cash collateral in respect of Synthetic L/C Undrawn Amounts.

expenses, the Commitments and/or Synthetic L/C Commitments shall be permanently reduced by the amount of any such prepayment.

2.15 Application of Prepayments.

(a) Application of Voluntary Prepayments. So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and, in each case, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, any prepayments pursuant to Section 2.13 shall be applied as specified by Company in the applicable notice of prepayment; provided, in the event Company fails to specify the Loans, reduction of the Synthetic L/C Facility or cash collateralization of Synthetic L/C Undrawn Amounts to which any such prepayment shall be applied, such prepayment shall be applied to the Loans and cash collateralization of Synthetic L/C Undrawn Amounts in accordance with Section 2.4(j) on a pro rata basis.

(b) Application of Mandatory Prepayments. Any amount required to be paid pursuant to Sections 2.14(a) through 2.14(d) shall be applied on a pro rata basis to (i) the prepayment of Loans, and (ii) repayment of unreimbursed Synthetic L/C Disbursements,

reduction of the Synthetic L/C Facility and/or cash collateralization of Synthetic L/C Undrawn Amounts, in each case, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

(c) Application of Prepayments of Loans to Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans. Any prepayment of Loans shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application to LIBOR Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by Company pursuant to Section 2.18(c).

2.16 General Provisions Regarding Payments.

(a) All payments by Company of principal, interest, fees and other Obligations shall be made in Dollars in same day funds, without defense, setoff or counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date due at Administrative Agent’s Principal Office for the account of Lenders; for purposes of computing interest and fees, funds received by Administrative Agent after that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by Company on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) All payments in respect of the principal amount of any Loan shall be accompanied by payment of accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, together with any premium, if applicable.

(c) Administrative Agent (or its agent or sub-agent appointed by it) shall promptly distribute to each Lender at such address as such Lender shall indicate in writing, such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of all payments and prepayments of principal and interest due hereunder, together with all other amounts due thereto, including, without limitation, all fees payable with respect thereto, to the extent received by Administrative Agent.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions hereof, if any Conversion/Continuation Notice is withdrawn as to any Affected Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro Rata Share of any LIBOR Loans, Administrative Agent shall give effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

(e) Whenever any payment to be made hereunder with respect to any Obligation shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day.

(f) Company hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to charge Company’s accounts (other than payroll, tax or trust accounts) with Administrative Agent in order to cause timely payment to be made to Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for that purpose). In addition, the Lenders and the Company hereby authorize Administrative Agent to, and Administrative Agent may, from time to time, charge the Loan Account of the Company with any amount due and payable by the Company with respect to the Loans and other Obligations under any Credit Document; provided, that, in the case of expenses, the Administrative Agent shall deliver invoices to Company three (3) Business Days prior to charging the Loan Account for such invoiced expenses. Each of the Lenders and the Company agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the right to make such charges whether or not

any Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or whether any of the conditions precedent in Section 3.3 have been satisfied or waived in accordance with this Agreement. Any amount charged to the Loan Account of the Company in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to constitute Obligations hereunder and shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to a Loan that is a Base Rate Loan. The Lenders and the Company confirm that any charges which the Administrative Agent may so make to the Loan Account of the Company as herein provided will be made as an accommodation to the Company and solely at the Administrative Agent’s discretion, provided that, in the absence of a continuing Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall from time to time upon the request of the Collateral Agent, charge the Loan Account of the Company with any amount due and payable under any Credit Document.

(g) Administrative Agent shall deem any payment by or on behalf of Company hereunder that is not made in same day funds prior to 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) to be a non-conforming payment. Any such payment shall not be deemed to have been received by Administrative Agent until the later of (i) the time such funds become available funds, and (ii) the applicable next Business Day. Administrative Agent shall give prompt telephonic notice to Company and each applicable Lender (confirmed in writing) if any payment is non-conforming. Any non-conforming payment may constitute or become a Default or Event of Default in accordance with the terms of Section 8.1(a). Interest shall continue to accrue on any principal as to which a non-conforming payment is made until such funds become available funds (but in no event less than the period from the date of such payment to the next succeeding applicable Business Day) at the rate determined pursuant to Section 2.10 from the date such amount was due and payable until the date such amount is paid in full

(h) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and not otherwise been waived, and the maturity of the Obligations shall have been accelerated pursuant to Section 8.1, all payments or proceeds received by Agents hereunder in respect of any of the Obligations, shall be applied in the following order:

(i) first, to pay (x) any Collateral Agent Advances then due to Collateral Agent and (y) Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to any Agent;

(i) second, to pay Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Lenders and Issuing Banks;

(ii) third, to pay Obligations in respect of any fees then due and owing the Lenders and Issuing Banks (other than Synthetic L/C Fees);

(iii) fourth, to pay interest and Synthetic L/C Fees then due and payable in respect of Loans and Synthetic Letters of Credit, as applicable, on a pro rata basis;

(iv) fifth to pay or prepay principal amounts on the Loans, unreimbursed Synthetic L/C Disbursements, to provide cash collateral in respect of Synthetic L/C Undrawn Amounts, and to pay amounts due and owing Lenders and

Issuing Banks in respect of Hedge Agreements that are Credit Documents, on a pro rata basis; and

(v) sixth, to the ratable payment of all other Obligations.

2.17 Ratable Sharing. Lenders hereby agree among themselves that, except as otherwise provided in the Collateral Documents (if any) with respect to amounts realized from the exercise of rights with respect to Liens on the Collateral, if any of them shall, whether by voluntary payment (other than a voluntary prepayment of Loans made and applied in accordance with the terms hereof), through the exercise of any right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents or otherwise, or as adequate protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code, receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (collectively, the “Aggregate Amounts Due” to such Lender) which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall (a) notify Administrative Agent and each other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (b) apply a portion of such payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided, if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of Company or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Company expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing by Company to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.

2.18 Making or Maintaining LIBOR Loans.

(a) Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate. In the event that Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate Determination Date with respect to any LIBOR Loans, that by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Loans on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR Rate, Administrative Agent shall on such date give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and each Lender of such determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to, LIBOR Loans until such time as Administrative Agent notifies Company and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, and (ii) any Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice given by Company with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Company.

(b) Illegality or Impracticability of LIBOR Loans. In the event that on any date any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall in the absence of manifest error be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only after consultation with Company and Administrative Agent) that the making, maintaining or continuation of its LIBOR Loans (i) has become unlawful as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful), or (ii) has become impracticable, as a result of contingencies occurring after the date hereof which materially and adversely affect the London interbank market or the position of such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be an “Affected Lender” and it shall on that day give notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Thereafter (1) the obligation of the Affected Lender to make Loans as, or to convert Loans to, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender, (2) to the extent such determination by the Affected Lender relates to a LIBOR Loan then being requested by Company pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, the Affected Lender shall make such Loan as (or continue such Loan as or convert such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (3) the Affected Lender’s obligation to maintain its outstanding LIBOR Loans (the “Affected Loans”) shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the expiration of the LIBOR Period then in effect with respect to the Affected Loans or when required by law, and (4) the Affected Loans shall automatically convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described above relates to a LIBOR Loan then being requested by Company pursuant to a Funding Notice or a Conversion/Continuation Notice, Company shall have the option, subject to the provisions of Section 2.18(c), to rescind such Funding Notice or Conversion/Continuation Notice as to all Lenders by giving notice (by telefacsimile or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender). Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this Section 2.18(b) shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make or maintain Loans as, or to convert Loans to, LIBOR Loans in accordance with the terms hereof.

(c) Compensation for Breakage or Non-Commencement of LIBOR Periods. Company shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by such Lender (which request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts and a calculation thereof), for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including any interest paid by such Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry its LIBOR Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by such Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender) a borrowing of any LIBOR Loan by Company does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Funding Notice or a telephonic request for borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any LIBOR Loan of Company does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Conversion/Continuation Notice or a telephonic request for conversion or continuation; (ii) if any prepayment or other principal payment of, or any conversion of, any of its LIBOR Loans occurs on a date prior to the last day of a LIBOR Period applicable to that

Loan; or (iii) if any prepayment of any of its LIBOR Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by Company.

(d) Booking of LIBOR Loans. Any Lender may make, carry or transfer LIBOR Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an Affiliate of such Lender.

(e) Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans. Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19 shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded each of its relevant LIBOR Loans through the purchase of a Eurocurrency deposit bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition of LIBOR Rate in an amount and currency equal to the amount of such LIBOR Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant LIBOR Period and through the transfer of such Eurocurrency deposit from an offshore office of such Lender to a domestic office of such Lender in the United States of America; provided, however, each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this Section 2.18 and under Section 2.19.

2.19 Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy. (a) Subject to Section 2.20 (which shall be controlling with respect to the matters covered thereby), if any Lender, any Agent or the Issuing Bank shall have determined that the adoption or implementation of, or any change in, any law, rule, treaty or regulation, or any policy, guideline or directive of, or any change in, the interpretation or administration thereof by, any court, central bank or other administrative or Governmental Authority, or compliance by any Lender, any Agent or the Issuing Bank or any Person controlling any such Agent, any such Lender or the Issuing Bank with any directive of, or guideline from, any central bank or other Governmental Authority or the introduction of, or change in, any accounting principles applicable to any Lender, any Agent or the Issuing Bank or any Person controlling any such Agent, any such Lender or the Issuing Bank, in each case after the date hereof (in each case, whether or not having the force of law) (each a “Change in Law”), shall (i) subject such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, or any Person controlling such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to this Agreement or any Loan made by such Agent or such Lender or any Synthetic Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Person controlling such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank of any amounts payable hereunder (except for taxes on the overall net income of such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Person controlling such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank), (ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against any Loan, any Synthetic Letter of Credit or against assets of or held by, or deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Person controlling such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank or (iii) impose on such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Person controlling such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank any other condition regarding this Agreement or any Loan or Synthetic Letter of Credit, and the result of any event referred to in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above shall be to increase the cost to such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank of making any Loan, issuing, guaranteeing or participating in any Synthetic Letter of Credit, or agreeing to make any Loan or issue, guaranty or participate in any Synthetic Letter of Credit, or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank hereunder, then, within 5 Business

Days of written demand (including documentation reasonably supporting such request) by such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, the Borrowers shall pay to such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank such additional amounts as will compensate such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank for such increased costs or reductions in amount; provided, that neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to compensate any Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank notifies Company in writing of the increased costs and of such Agent’s, such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation thereof; provided, further, that if the circumstance giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 180 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(b) If any Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law either (i) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Person controlling such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, and such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank reasonably determines that the amount of such capital is increased as a direct or indirect consequence of any Loans made or maintained, Synthetic Letters of Credit issued or any guaranty or participation with respect thereto, such Agent’s, such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s or such other controlling Person’s other obligations hereunder, or (ii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Agent’s, such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s such other controlling Person’s capital to a level below that which such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such controlling Person could have achieved but for such circumstances as a consequence of any Loans made or maintained, Synthetic Letters of Credit issued, or any guaranty or participation with respect thereto or any agreement to make Loans, to issue Synthetic Letters of Credit or such Agent’s, such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s or such other controlling Person’s other obligations hereunder (in each case, taking into consideration, such Agent’s, such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s or such other controlling Person’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then, within 5 Business Days of written demand (such demand to include documentation reasonably supporting such request) by such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, the Borrowers shall pay to such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank from time to time such additional amounts as will compensate such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank for such cost of maintaining such increased capital or such reduction in the rate of return on such Agent’s, such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s or such other controlling Person’s capital; provided, that neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to compensate any Agent, Lender or Issuig Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank notifies Company in writing of the increased costs and of such Agent’s, such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation thereof; provided, further, that if the circumstance giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 180 day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(c) All amounts payable under this Section 2.19 shall bear interest from the date that is ten (10) days after the date of demand by any Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank until payment in full to such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank at the Prime Rate. A certificate of such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank claiming compensation under this Section 2.19, specifying the event herein above described and the nature of such event shall be

submitted by such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank to the Administrative Borrower, setting forth the additional amount due and an explanation of the calculation thereof, and such Agent’s, such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s reasons for invoking the provisions of this Section 2.19, and shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error.

2.20 Taxes; Withholding, etc. (a) Any and all payments by any Credit Party hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on the net income of any Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank (or any transferee or assignee thereof, including a participation holder (any such entity, a “Transferee”)) by the jurisdiction in which such Person is organized or has its principal lending office (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges withholdings and liabilities, collectively or individually, “Taxes”). If any Credit Party shall be required to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to any Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank (or any Transferee), (i) the sum payable shall be increased by the amount (an “additional amount”) necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.20) such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank (or such Transferee) shall receive an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Credit Party shall make such deductions and (iii) such Credit Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, each Credit Party agrees to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Credit Document (“Other Taxes”). Each Credit Party shall deliver to each Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank official receipts in respect of any Taxes or Other Taxes payable hereunder promptly after payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes.

(c) The Credit Parties hereby jointly and severally indemnify and agree to hold each Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank harmless from and against Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, Taxes and Other Taxes imposed on any amounts payable under this Section 2.20) paid by such Person, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Such indemnification shall be paid within 10 days from the date on which any such Person makes written demand therefore specifying in reasonable detail the nature and amount of such Taxes or Other Taxes.

(d) Each Lender (or Transferee) that is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) agrees that it shall, no later than the Closing Date (or, in the case of a Lender which becomes a party hereto pursuant to Section 10.6 hereof after the Closing Date, promptly after the date upon which such Lender becomes a party hereto) deliver to the Agents one properly completed and duly executed copy of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form ▇-▇▇▇▇, ▇-▇▇▇▇ or W-8IMY or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, in each case claiming complete exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. Federal withholding tax and payments of interest hereunder. In addition, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. Federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or

881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, such Non-U.S. Lender hereby represents to the Agents and the Credit Parties that such Non-U.S. Lender is not a bank for purposes of Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, is not a 10-percent shareholder (within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code) of Holdings and is not a controlled foreign corporation related to Holdings (within the meaning of Section 864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code), and such Non-U.S. Lender agrees that it shall promptly notify the Agents in the event any such representation is no longer accurate. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a Transferee that is a participation holder, on or before the date such participation holder becomes a Transferee hereunder) and on or before the date, if any, such Non-U.S. Lender changes its applicable lending office by designating a different lending office (a “New Lending Office”). In addition, such Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms within 20 days after receipt of a written request therefor from any Agent, the assigning Lender or the Lender granting a participation, as applicable. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.20, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this Section 2.20(d) that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(e) The Credit Parties shall not be required to indemnify any Non-U.S. Lender, or pay any additional amounts to any Non-U.S. Lender, in respect of United States Federal withholding tax pursuant to this Section 2.20 to the extent that (i) the obligation to withhold amounts with respect to United States Federal withholding tax existed on the date such Non-U.S. Lender became a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of a Transferee that is a participation holder, on the date such participation holder became a Transferee hereunder) or, with respect to payments to a New Lending Office, the date such Non-U.S. Lender designated such New Lending Office with respect to a Loan; provided, however, that this clause (i) shall not apply to the extent the indemnity payment or additional amounts any Transferee, or Lender (or Transferee) through a New Lending Office, would be entitled to receive (without regard to this clause (i)) do not exceed the indemnity payment or additional amounts that the Person making the assignment, participation or transfer to such Transferee, or Lender (or Transferee) making the designation of such New Lending Office, would have been entitled to receive in the absence of such assignment, participation, transfer or designation, or (ii) the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Non-U.S. Lender to comply with the provisions of clause (d) above.

(f) Any Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank (or Transferee) claiming any indemnity payment or additional payment amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by the Administrative Borrower or to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the making of such a filing or change would avoid the need for or reduce the amount of any such indemnity payment or additional amount that may thereafter accrue, would not require such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank (or Transferee) to disclose any information such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank (or Transferee) deems confidential and would not, in the sole determination of such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank (or Transferee), be otherwise disadvantageous to such Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank (or Transferee).

(g) The obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 2.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

2.21 Obligation to Mitigate. Each Lender (which term shall include Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 2.21) agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Lender responsible for administering its Loans or Credit-Linked Deposit becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle such Lender to receive payments under Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal policies of such Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory restrictions, use reasonable efforts to (a) make, issue, fund or maintain its Credit Extensions, including any Affected Loans, through another office of such Lender, or (b) take such other measures as such Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20 would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion, the making, funding or maintaining of such Commitments, Loans or Synthetic Letters of Credit through such other office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise adversely affect such Commitments, Loans or the interests of such Lender; provided, such Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other office pursuant to this Section 2.21 unless Company agrees to pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender as a result of utilizing such other office as described in clause (i) above. A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses payable by Company pursuant to this Section 2.21 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount) submitted by such Lender to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each of Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to notify Company as promptly as reasonably practicable upon its becoming aware that circumstances exist that would cause Company to become obligated to pay additional amounts pursuant to Sections 2.18, 2.19 and 2.20.

2.22 Defaulting Lenders. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any Lender, other than at the direction or request of any regulatory agency or authority, defaults (a “Defaulting Lender”) in its obligation to fund (a “Funding Default”) any Loan or its portion of any unreimbursed payment under Sections 2.1(c)(ii) or (iii) or 2.4(d) (in each case, a “Defaulted Loan”), then (a) during any Default Period with respect to such Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” for purposes of voting on any matters (including the granting of any consents or waivers) with respect to any of the Credit Documents; and (b) to the extent permitted by applicable law, until such time as the Default Excess with respect to such Defaulting Lender shall have been reduced to zero, (i) any voluntary prepayment of the Loans shall, if Company so directs at the time of making such voluntary prepayment, be applied to the Loans of other Lenders as if such Defaulting Lender had no Loans outstanding and the Revolving Exposure of such Defaulting Lender were zero, and (ii) any mandatory prepayment of the Loans shall, if Company 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) as if such Defaulting Lender had funded all Defaulted Loans of such Defaulting Lender, it being understood and agreed that Company 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 (b). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 2.22, performance by Company of its obligations hereunder and the other Credit Documents shall not be excused or otherwise modified as a result of any Funding Default or the operation of this Section 2.22. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.22 are in addition to other rights and remedies which Company may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default and which Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender with respect to any Funding Default.

2.23 Removal or Replacement of a Lender. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that: (a) (i) any Lender (an “Increased-Cost Lender”) shall give notice to Company that such Lender is an Affected Lender or that such Lender is entitled to receive payments under Section 2.18 (other than Section 2.18(c)), 2.19 or 2.20, (ii) the circumstances which have caused such Lender to be an Affected Lender or which entitle such Lender to receive such payments shall remain in effect, and (iii) such Lender shall fail to withdraw such notice within five Business Days after Company’s request for such withdrawal; or (b) (i) any Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, (ii) the Default Period for such Defaulting Lender shall remain in effect, and (iii) such Defaulting Lender shall fail to cure the default as a result of which it has become a Defaulting Lender within three Business Days after Company’s request that it cure such default; or (c) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.5(b), the consent of Requisite Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders (each a “Non-Consenting Lender”) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained; then, with respect to each such Increased-Cost Lender, Defaulting Lender or Non-Consenting Lender (in each case, other than Ableco and its Related Funds, the “Terminated Lender”), Company may, by giving written notice to Administrative Agent and any Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loans and Commitments, if any, in full to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent (each a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 and Company shall pay any fees payable thereunder in connection with any such assignment from an Increased-Cost Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, and the Defaulting Lender shall pay fees, if any, payable thereunder in connection with any such assignment from such Defaulting Lender; provided, (1) on the date of such assignment, the Replacement Lender shall pay to Terminated Lender an amount equal to the sum of (A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the Terminated Lender, (B) an amount equal to all unreimbursed drawings that have been funded by such Terminated Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but theretofore unpaid fees owing to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.11; (2) on the date of such assignment, Company shall pay any amounts payable to such Terminated Lender pursuant to Section 2.18(c), 2.19 or 2.20 or otherwise as if it were a prepayment; and (3) in the event such Terminated Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, that Company may not make such election with respect

to any Terminated Lender that is also an Issuing Bank unless, prior to the effectiveness of such election, Company shall have caused each outstanding Synthetic Letter of Credit issued thereby to be cancelled. Upon the prepayment of all amounts owing to any Terminated Lender and the termination of such Terminated Lender’s Commitments, if any, such Terminated Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such Terminated Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive as to such Terminated Lender.

2.24 Collateral; Grant of Lien and Security Interest.

(a) As security for the full and timely payment and performance of all of the Obligations, each Credit Party hereby, as of the Interim Order Entry Date and subject thereto, pledges and grants to Collateral Agent, for the benefit of Agents and the Lenders, a security interest in and to and Lien on all of the property, assets or interests in property or assets of such Person, of any kind or nature whatsoever, real or personal, now existing or hereafter acquired or created, including, without limitation, all property of the “estate” (within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code) of such Credit Party, and all accounts, inventory, goods, contract rights, instruments, documents, chattel paper, patents, trademarks, copyrights and licenses therefor, general intangibles, payment intangibles, letters of credit, letter-of-credit rights, supporting obligations, machinery and equipment, real property, fixtures, leases, all of the Capital Stock of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock entitled to vote (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.956-2(c)) and all of the issued and outstanding Capital Stock not entitled to vote (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section 1.956-2(c)(2)) of each direct Subsidiary of such Credit Party (but excluding the Capital Stock of all Foreign Subsidiaries that are not first-tier Foreign Subsidiaries), all of the Capital Stock of all other Persons directly owned by such Credit Party, money, investment property, deposit accounts, all commercial tort claims and all causes of action arising under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise (including, without limitation, all the proceeds of Avoidance Actions, but excluding such Avoidance Actions), and all cash and non-cash proceeds, rents, products and profits of any of collateral described above (all property of the Loan Parties subject to the security interest referred to in this Section 2.24 being hereafter collectively referred to as the “Collateral”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this section, in no event shall the Collateral include or the security interest granted under Section 2.24(a) hereof attach to (a) any lease, license, contract, property rights or agreement to which any Credit Party is a party or any of its rights or interests thereunder if and for so long as the grant of such security interest shall constitute or result in (i) the abandonment, invalidation or unenforceability of any right, title or interest of any Credit Party therein or (ii) in a breach or termination pursuant to the terms of, or a default under, any such lease, license, contract property rights or agreement (other than to the extent that any such term would be rendered ineffective pursuant to Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408 or 9-409 of the UCC (or any successor provision or provisions) of any relevant jurisdiction or any other applicable law (including the Bankruptcy Code and any other insolvency or similar law of any other jurisdiction) or principles of equity), provided however that the Collateral shall include and such security interest shall attach immediately at such time as the condition causing such abandonment, invalidation or unenforceability shall be remedied and to the extent severable, shall attach immediately to any portion of such lease, license, contract, property rights or agreement that does not result in any of the consequences specified in (i) or (ii) above, (b) any “intent to use” Trademark applications for which a statement of use has not been filed, (but only until such statement is filed), and (c) equipment owned by any Credit Party that is subject to a purchase money Lien or a Capital

Lease if the contract or other agreement in which such Lien is granted (or in the documentation providing for such Capital Lease) prohibits or requires the consent of any Person other than the Company and its Affiliates as a condition to the creation of any other Lien on such equipment (collectively, the “Excluded Property”); provided, however, the foregoing shall not include any proceeds, substitutions or replacements of the above (unless such proceeds, substitutions or replacements would constitute Excluded Property).

(b) Upon entry of the Interim Order or Final Order, as the case may be, the Liens and security interests in favor of Collateral Agent referred to in Section 2.24(a) hereof shall be valid and perfected Liens and security interests in the Collateral, prior to all other Liens and security interests in the Collateral, other than for the Permitted Priority Liens (and, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Liens securing the Revolving Credit Obligations). Such Liens and security interests and their priority shall remain in effect until the Commitments shall have been terminated and all Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) shall have been repaid in cash in full.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (i) all proceeds received by the Agents and Lenders from the Collateral subject to the Liens granted in this Section 2.24 and in each other Credit Document and by the Orders shall be subject to the prior payment of (x) Carve-Out Expenses to the extent set forth in clause “first” of the definition of the term “Agreed Administrative Expense Priorities”, and (y) subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Revolving Credit Obligations, and (ii) no Person entitled to such Carve-Out Expenses shall be entitled to sell or otherwise dispose, or seek or object to the sale or other disposition, of any Collateral.

2.25 Administrative Priority. Each of Credit Parties agrees for itself that the Obligations of such Person shall constitute allowed administrative expenses in the Chapter 11 Cases, having priority over all administrative expenses of and unsecured claims against such Person now existing or hereafter arising, of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, all administrative expenses of the kind specified in, or arising or ordered under, Sections 105, 326, 328, 330, 331, 503(b), 506(c), 507(a), 507(b), 546(c), 726 and 1114 of the Bankruptcy Code, subject only to the (x) prior payment of Carve-Out Expenses to the extent set forth in clause “first” of the definition of the term “Agreed Administrative Expense Priorities” and (y) subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Revolving Credit Obligations.

2.26 Grants, Rights and Remedies. The Liens and security interests granted pursuant to Section 2.24(a) hereof and the administrative priority granted pursuant to Section 2.25 hereof may be independently granted by the Orders and by other Credit Documents hereafter entered into. This Agreement, the Orders and such other Credit Documents supplement each other, and the grants, priorities, rights and remedies of Agents and Lenders hereunder and thereunder are cumulative.

2.27 No Filings Required. The Liens and security interests referred to herein shall be deemed valid and perfected by entry of the Interim Order or the Final Order, as the case may be, and entry of the Interim Order shall have occurred on or before the date of any Credit Extension. The Collateral Agent shall not be required to file any financing statements, mortgages, certificates of title, notices of Lien or similar instruments in any jurisdiction or filing

office or to take any other action in order to validate or perfect the Lien and security interest granted by or pursuant to this Agreement, the Interim Order or the Final Order, as the case may be, or any other Credit Document; provided, that Collateral Agent shall be permitted to file any financing statements (and is hereby authorized to describe the Collateral as “all assets” or “all personal property of the Company or Guarantors, as applicable), mortgages, certificates of title, notices of Lien or similar instruments in any jurisdiction or filing office or to take any other action with respect to the Lien and security interest granted by or pursuant to this Agreement.

2.28 Survival.

Without limitation, notwithstanding any such order, financing, extension, incurrence, dismissal, conversion, act or omission:

(a) except for the Carve-Out Expenses to the extent set forth in clause “first” or, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Revolving Credit Obligations in clause “second” of the definition of the term “Agreed Administrative Expense Priorities” as set forth in Section 2.25, no costs or expenses of administration which have been or may be incurred in the Chapter 11 Cases or any conversion of the same or in any other proceedings related thereto, and no priority claims, are or will be prior to or on parity with any claim of Agents and Lenders against any Credit Party in respect of any Obligation; and

(b) upon entry of the Interim Order or Final Order, as applicable, the Liens in favor of Agents and Lenders set forth in Section 2.24(a) hereof shall constitute valid and perfected first priority Liens and security interests, subject only to Permitted Priority Liens (and, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Liens securing the Revolving Credit Obligations) to which such Liens and security interests may be subordinate and junior, and shall be prior to all other Liens and security interests, now existing or hereafter arising, in favor of any other creditor or any other Person whatsoever (other than Permitted Priority Liens).

2.29 Further Assurances. (a) Subject to the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, the Credit Parties shall take any other actions reasonably requested by Agents and Lenders from time to time to cause the attachment, perfection and first priority of, and the ability of Agents and Lenders to enforce, the security interest of Agents and Lenders in any and all of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (i) executing and delivering any requested Collateral Document, (ii) executing, delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments relating thereto under the UCC or other applicable law, to the extent, if any, that any Credit Party’s signature thereon is required therefor, (iii) causing Collateral Agent’s name to be noted as secured party on any certificate of title for a titled good if such notation is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of Collateral Agent to enforce, the security interest of Collateral Agent in such Collateral, (iv) complying with any provision of any statute, regulation or treaty of the United States as to

any Collateral if compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of Collateral Agent to enforce, the security interest of Collateral Agent in such Collateral, and (v) using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consents and approvals of any Governmental Authority or third party, including, without limitation, any consent of any licensor, lessor or other person obligated on Collateral, and taking all actions required by any law, as applicable in any relevant jurisdiction.

(b) Each of the Borrower and each Guarantor consents to the grant by the Borrower and each other Guarantor of a security interest in all investment property and general intangibles (including, without limitation limited liability company interests and partnership interests) to the Collateral Agent and, without limiting the foregoing, consents to the transfer of any such investment property or general intangibles (including, without limitation limited liability company interests and partnership interest) to the Collateral Agent or its nominee following an Event of Default and to the substitution of the Collateral Agent or its nominee as a partner in any partnership or as a member in any limited liability company with all the rights and powers related thereto.

2.30 Payment of Obligations. Upon the Maturity Date (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of any of the Obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents, Lenders shall be entitled to immediate payment of such Obligations without further application to or order of the Bankruptcy Court.

2.32 Waiver of any Primary Rights. Other than (x) the prior payment of Carve-Out Expenses to the extent set forth in clause “first” of the definition of the term “Agreed Administrative Expense Priorities” and (y) subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Revolving Credit Obligations, Company and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waive any right, pursuant to Sections 364(c) or 364(d) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, to grant any Lien of equal or greater priority than the Lien securing the Obligations, or to approve or grant a claim of equal or greater priority than the Obligations.

2.33 Securitization. The Credit Parties hereby acknowledge that the Lenders may sell or securitize the Loans (a “Securitization”) through the pledge of the Loans as collateral security for loans to the Lenders or their Affiliates or through the sale of the Loans or the issuance of direct or indirect interests in the Loans, which loans to the Lenders or direct or indirect interests will be rated by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, Standard & Poor’s or one or more other rating agencies (the “Rating Agencies”). The Credit Parties shall cooperate with the Lenders and their

Affiliates to effect the Securitization including, without limitation, by (a) amending this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and executing such additional documents, as reasonably requested by the Lenders in connection with the Securitization, provided that (i) any such amendment or additional documentation does not impose additional costs on the Credit Parties (other than costs of a de minimis nature) and (ii) any such amendment or additional documentation does not adversely affect the rights, or increase the obligations (other than increases of a de minimis nature), of the Credit Parties under the Credit Documents or change or affect in a manner adverse to the Credit Parties the financial terms of the Loans, (b) providing such information as may be reasonably requested by the Lenders in connection with the rating of the Loans or the Securitization, and (c) providing in connection with any rating of the Loans a certificate (i) agreeing to indemnify the Lenders, any of the Rating Agencies, or any party providing credit support or otherwise participating in the Securitization (collectively, the “Securitization Parties”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (the “Liabilities”) to which the Lenders, their Affiliates or such Securitization Parties may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Credit Document or in any writing delivered by or on behalf of any Credit Party to the Lenders in connection with any Credit Document or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading, and such indemnity shall survive any transfer by the Lenders or their permitted successors or assigns of the Loans and (ii) agreeing to reimburse the Lenders for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Persons in connection with defending the Liabilities.

Holdings, each of its Subsidiaries and each of their respective ERISA Affiliates are in compliance with all applicable provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code with respect to each Employee Benefit Plan, and have performed all their obligations under each Employee Benefit Plan, except as could not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Employee Benefit Plan which is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code has received a favorable opinion or determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service indicating that such Employee Benefit Plan is so qualified and to the knowledge of the Holdings nothing has occurred subsequent to the issuance of such determination letter which would cause such Employee Benefit Plan to lose its qualified status. No material liability to the PBGC (other than required premium payments), or the Internal Revenue Service, has been or is reasonably expected to be incurred by Holdings, any of its Subsidiaries or any of their ERISA Affiliates except as could not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of the most recent valuation date for each Multiemployer Plan for which the actuarial report is available, the potential liability of Holdings, its Subsidiaries and their respective ERISA Affiliates for a complete withdrawal from such Multiemployer Plan (within the meaning of Section 4203 of ERISA), when aggregated with such potential liability for a complete withdrawal from all Multiemployer Plans, based on information available pursuant to Section 4221(e) of ERISA is not an amount which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect if required to be paid. Holdings, each of its Subsidiaries and each of their ERISA Affiliates have complied in all material respects with the requirements of Section 515 of ERISA with respect to each Multiemployer Plan and are not in material “default” (as defined in Section 4219(c)(5) of ERISA) with respect to payments to a Multiemployer Plan. There have been no improper withdrawals or applications of the assets of the Pension Plans or the Employee Benefit Plans except as could not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There are no outstanding disputes concerning the assets or liabilities of the Pension Plans or the Employee Benefit Plans as of the Closing Date, or with respect to any such dispute arising after the Closing Date, that could, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no Pension Plan in respect of which an event has occurred that could reasonably be expected to require immediate or accelerated funding in respect of unfunded liabilities or other deficit amounts.

4.21 Compliance with Statutes, etc. Each of Holdings and its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all applicable statutes, regulations and orders of, and all applicable restrictions imposed by, all Governmental Authorities, in respect of the conduct of its business and the ownership of its property (including compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws with respect to any Real Estate Asset or governing its business and the requirements of any permits issued under such Environmental Laws with respect to any such Real Estate Asset or the operations of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries), except such non-compliance that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

4.22 Disclosure. No written representation or warranty of any Credit Party contained in any Credit Document or in any other documents, certificates or notice or written statements (other than the Budget, the Closing Budgets and projections) (to the extent such notices or written statements are required to be delivered by any Credit Party under any Credit Document) furnished (when furnished and taken as a whole) to Lenders by or on behalf of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances in which the same were made.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, its is hereby acknowledged and agreed by Agents and Lenders, that (i) the Budget, the Closing Budgets and any projections contained in such materials are subject to uncertainties and contingencies, which may be beyond Holdings’, its Subsidiaries’ or Affiliates’ control, (ii) neither the Holdings nor any of its Subsidiaries gives any assurances that the projected results in any such projections will be realized and (iii) the actual results may differ from the projected results set forth in such projections and such differences may be material. There are no facts known to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries (other than matters of a general economic nature) that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and that have not been disclosed herein or (including as contemplated by Section 5.1(f)(iii) following the date hereof) in such other documents, certificates and statements furnished to Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

4.23 Patriot Act. To the extent applicable, each Credit Party is in compliance, in all material respects, with the (i) Trading with the Enemy Act, as amended, and each of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) and any other enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto, and (ii) Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (USA Patriot Act of 2001) (the “Patriot Act”). No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

7. GUARANTY

7.1 Guaranty of the Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2, Guarantors jointly and severally hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranty to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Beneficiaries the due and punctual payment in full of all Obligations when the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a), or any equivalent provision in any applicable jurisdiction) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

7.2 Contribution by Guarantors. All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves (collectively, the “Contributing Guarantors”), in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor (a “Funding Guarantor”) under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of such date, such Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each of the other Contributing Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Contributing Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Contributing Guarantor to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Contributing Guarantors multiplied by (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the obligations Guaranteed. “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the

100

obligations of such Contributing Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder or thereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state or foreign law; provided, solely for purposes of calculating the “Fair Share Contribution Amount” with respect to any Contributing Guarantor for purposes of this Section 7.2, any assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as assets or liabilities of such Contributing Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to a Contributing Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (1) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including, without limitation, in respect of this Section 7.2), minus (2) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Contributing Guarantor from the other Contributing Guarantors as contributions under this Section 7.2. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Funding Guarantor. The allocation among Contributing Guarantors of their obligations as set forth in this Section 7.2 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Contributing Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this Section 7.2.

7.3 Payment by Guarantors. Subject to Section 7.2, Guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Beneficiary may have at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, that upon the failure of Company to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a), or any equivalent provision in any applicable jurisdiction), Guarantors will upon demand pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash, to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Beneficiaries, an amount equal to the sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due as aforesaid, accrued and unpaid interest on such Guaranteed Obligations (including interest which, but for Company becoming the subject of a case under the Bankruptcy Code or other similar legislation in any jurisdiction, would have accrued on such Guaranteed Obligations, whether or not a claim is allowed against Company for such interest in the related bankruptcy case) and all other Guaranteed Obligations then owed to Beneficiaries as aforesaid.

7.4 Liability of Guarantors Absolute. Each Guarantor agrees that to the extent permitted by applicable law its obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

(a) this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectibility. This Guaranty is a primary obligation of each Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety;

101

(b) subject to the terms of the Orders, Administrative Agent may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default notwithstanding the existence of any dispute between Company and any Beneficiary with respect to the existence of such Event of Default;

(c) the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Company and the obligations of any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the obligations of Company, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against Company or any of such other guarantors and whether or not Company is joined in any such action or actions;

(d) payment by any Guarantor of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge any Guarantor’s liability for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Administrative Agent is awarded a judgment in any suit brought to enforce any Guarantor’s covenant to pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, such judgment shall not be deemed to release such Guarantor from its covenant to pay the portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such judgment shall not, except to the extent satisfied by such Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge any other Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(e) any Beneficiary, upon such terms as it deems appropriate, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time may (i) renew, extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of performance with respect to, or substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise, settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person (including any other Guarantor) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of such Beneficiary in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, or exercise any other right or remedy that such Beneficiary may have against any such security, in each case as such Beneficiary in its discretion may determine consistent herewith or the applicable Hedge Agreement and any applicable security agreement, including foreclosure on any such security pursuant to one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, whether or not every aspect of any such sale is commercially reasonable, and even though such action operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against Company or any security for the Guaranteed Obligations; and (vi) exercise any other rights available to it under the Credit Documents or the Hedge Agreements; and

102

(f) subject to the entry of the Orders, as applicable, this Guaranty and the obligations of Guarantors hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination for any reason (other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted)), including the occurrence of any of the following, whether or not any Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise, of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Credit Documents or the Hedge Agreements, at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to events of default) hereof, any of the other Credit Documents, any of the Hedge Agreements or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations, in each case whether or not in accordance with the terms hereof or such Credit Document, such Hedge Agreement or any agreement relating to such other guaranty or security; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Credit Documents or any of the Hedge Agreements or from the proceeds of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though any Beneficiary might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) any Beneficiary’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Company or any of its Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set-offs or counterclaims which Company may allege or assert against any Beneficiary in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty, payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury; and (viii) any other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

7.5 Waivers by Guarantors. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Beneficiaries: (a) any right to require any Beneficiary, as a condition of payment or performance by such Guarantor, to (i) proceed against Company, any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Company, any such other guarantor or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of any Beneficiary in favor of Company or any other Person, or (iv) pursue any other remedy in the power of any Beneficiary whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Company or any other Guarantor including any defense based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Company or any other Guarantor

103

from any cause other than payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon any Beneficiary’s errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting such Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set-offs, recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that any Beneficiary protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices of default hereunder, the Hedge Agreements or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to Company and notices of any of the matters referred to in Section 7.4 and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or benefits that may be derived from or afforded by law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which may conflict with the terms hereof.

7.6 Guarantors’ Rights of Subrogation, Contribution, etc. Until the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted) shall have been paid in full and all Synthetic Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, each Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Company or any other Guarantor or any of its assets in connection with this Guaranty or the performance by such Guarantor of its obligations hereunder, in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that such Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Company with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce, or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that any Beneficiary now has or may hereafter have against Company, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereafter held by any Beneficiary. In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted) shall have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments (if any) terminated and all Synthetic Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled, each Guarantor shall withhold exercise of any right of contribution such Guarantor may have against any other guarantor (including any other Guarantor) of the Guaranteed Obligations, including, without limitation, any such right of contribution as contemplated by Section 7.2. Each Guarantor further agrees that, to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold the exercise of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution as set forth herein is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification such Guarantor may have against Company or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution such Guarantor may have against any such other guarantor, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights any Beneficiary may have against Company, to all right, title and interest any Beneficiary may have in any such collateral or security, and to any right any Beneficiary may have against such other guarantor. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of any such subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification or contribution

104

rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted) shall not have been irrevocably paid in full, such amount shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall promptly be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms hereof.

7.7 Subordination of Other Obligations. Any Indebtedness of Company or any Guarantor now or hereafter held by any Guarantor (the “Obligee Guarantor”) is hereby subordinated in right of payment to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by the Obligee Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Beneficiaries and shall promptly be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Beneficiaries to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations but without affecting, impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of the Obligee Guarantor under any other provision hereof.

7.8 Continuing Guaranty. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted) shall have been paid in full and the Commitments (if any) terminated and all Synthetic Letters of Credit shall have expired or been cancelled. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

7.9 Authority of Guarantors or Company. It is not necessary for any Beneficiary to inquire into the capacity or powers of any Guarantor or Company or the officers, directors or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

7.10 Financial Condition of Company. Any Credit Extension may be made to Company or continued from time to time, and any Hedge Agreements may be entered into from time to time, in each case without notice to or authorization from any Guarantor regardless of the financial or other condition of Company at the time of any such grant or continuation or at the time such Hedge Agreement is entered into, as the case may be.

9.8 Collateral Documents and Guaranty.

(a) Agents under Collateral Documents and Guaranty. Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby further authorizes Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, on behalf of and for the benefit of Secured Parties, (i) to be the agent for and representative of Lenders with respect to the Guaranty, the Collateral and the Collateral Documents provided that neither Administrative Agent nor 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 Hedge Agreement, (ii) to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement and the other Collateral Documents, and each Lender agrees to be bound by the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and each other Collateral Document (including to the extent required to give effect to the validity, perfection or priority of the Liens granted thereunder) and (iii) to manage, supervise and otherwise deal with the Collateral. Subject to Section 10.5, without further written consent or authorization from Lenders, Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable may execute any documents or instruments necessary to (i) release any Lien encumbering any item of Collateral that is the subject of a sale or other disposition of assets permitted hereby or to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.5) have otherwise consented or (ii) release any Guarantor from the Guaranty pursuant to Section 7.12 or with respect to which Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such consent under Section 10.5) have otherwise consented; provided that Collateral Agent shall not enter into or consent to any material amendment, modification, termination or waiver of the Intercreditor Agreement without the prior written consent of the Requisite Lenders (or such other Lenders as may be required to give such instructions under Section 10.5).

(b) Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guaranty.

(i) Anything contained in any of the Credit Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, Company, Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (A) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by Administrative Agent, on behalf of Lenders in accordance with the terms hereof and all powers, rights and remedies under this Agreement and the Collateral Documents may be exercised solely by Collateral Agent, and (B) in the event of a foreclosure by Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Requisite 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 public sale, 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.

(ii) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement or the Collateral Documents, Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation to exercise rights or remedies against Collateral consisting of Real Property or of stock of any Subsidiary that owns any

117

Real Property (the “Specified Remedies”), and if Requisite Lenders determine that the Specified Remedies should be pursued, they shall give written notice thereof to Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent. Upon such notice, Collateral Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, elect to pursue the Specified Remedies (provided that it shall have no obligation to do so) and, if Collateral Agent does not so elect, the Requisite Lenders shall appoint a separate Real Estate Collateral Agent to pursue the Specified Remedies. Any such Real Estate Collateral Agent, in its capacity as such, shall be entitled to the indemnities and other benefits and protections of this Section 9 to the same extent as Collateral Agent

(iii) No Hedge Agreement will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Lender Counterparty that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Guarantor under the Credit Documents.

9.9 Collateral Agent Advances. The Collateral Agent may from time to time make such disbursements and advances (“Collateral Agent Advances”) which the Collateral Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable to preserve, protect, prepare for sale or lease or dispose of the Collateral or any portion thereof, to enhance the likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment by the Company of the Loans, the unreimbursed Synthetic L/C Disbursements and other Obligations or to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrowers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 10.2. The Collateral Agent Advances shall be repayable on demand and be secured by the Collateral. The Collateral Agent Advances shall constitute Obligations hereunder which may be charged to the Loan Account in accordance with Section 2.16(f). The Collateral Agent shall notify each Lender and the Company in writing of each such Collateral Agent Advance, which notice shall include a description of the purpose of such Collateral Agent Advance. Without limitation to its obligations pursuant to Section 9.6, each Lender agrees that it shall make available to the Collateral Agent, upon the Collateral Agent’s demand, in Dollars in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each such Collateral Agent Advance. If such funds are not made available to the Collateral Agent by such Lender, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to recover such funds on demand from such Lender, together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to the Collateral Agent, at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate.

To the extent that the undertakings to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 10.3 may be unenforceable in whole or in part because they are in violation of any law or public policy, the applicable Credit Party shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by Indemnitees or any of them.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against Lenders, Agents and their respective Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof (including the use of proceeds for the payment of any Indebtedness arising before the Petition Date) or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and Company hereby waives, releases and agrees not to ▇▇▇ upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

121

under the other Credit Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto, the Synthetic Letters of Credit and participations therein or with any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the principal of or the interest on the Loans or any amounts in respect of the Synthetic Letters of Credit or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 2 and although such obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured.

(iii) extend the stated expiration date of any Synthetic Letter of Credit beyond the Maturity Date;

Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. Any amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance with this Section 10.5 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by a Credit Party, on such Credit Party.

Upon such execution, delivery and acceptance, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment Agreement, which effective date shall be at least 3 Business Days after the delivery thereof to the Collateral Agent (or such shorter period as shall be agreed to by the Collateral Agent and the parties to such assignment), (A) the assignee thereunder shall become a “Lender” hereunder and, in addition to the rights and obligations hereunder held by it immediately prior to such effective date, have the rights and obligations hereunder that have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and (B) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, no Lender shall assign any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a Prohibited Assignee without the written consent of Company.

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment Agreement, the assigning Lender and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment Agreement, the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Credit Document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with

(d) The Administrative Agent shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain, or cause to be maintained at the Administrative Agent’s Principal Office, a copy of each Assignment Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and the principal amount of the Loans (and stated interest thereon) and the Synthetic L/C Exposure (the “Registered Loans”) owing to each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Company, the Agents and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of a completed Assignment Agreement (including all documentation required by this Agreement), and subject to any consent required from the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 10.6(b) (which consent of the Collateral Agent must be evidenced by the Collateral Agent’s execution of an acceptance to such Assignment Agreement), the Administrative Agent shall accept such assignment, record the information contained therein in the Register and provide to the Collateral Agent a copy of the fully executed Assignment Agreement.

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

125

Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same), the Agents shall treat the Person in whose name such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) is registered on the Register as the owner thereof for the purpose of receiving all payments thereon, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

(g) In the event that any Lender sells participations in a Registered Loan, such Lender shall, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name of all participants in the Registered Loans held by it and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Registered Loan that is the subject of the participation (the “Participant Register”). A Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide). Any participation of such Registered Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register. The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Company and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(h) Any Non-U.S. Lender who purchases or is assigned or participates in any portion of such Registered Loan shall comply with Section 2.20(d).

(i) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments, the Loans made by it, the Synthetic L/C Exposure and its Pro Rata Share of the Credit-Linked Deposits); provided, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including without limitation, its Commitments hereunder) and the other Credit Documents shall remain unchanged; (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and the Company, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents; and (iii) a participant shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except (A) action directly effecting an extension of the final scheduled maturity dates or decrease in the principal amount of the Loans or the unreimbursed Synthetic L/C Disbursements, (B) action directly effecting an extension of the due dates or a decrease in the rate of interest payable on the Loans or the fees payable under this Agreement (other than in connection with a waiver of post-default increase in the interest rate), or (C) actions directly effecting a release of all or a substantial portion of the Collateral or any Credit Party (except as set forth in Section 9.8 of this Agreement or any other Credit Document) (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the Commitment shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation, and that an increase in any Commitment or Loan shall be permitted without the consent of any participant if the participant’s participation is not increased as a result thereof). The Loan Parties agree that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.19 and Section 2.20 of this Agreement with respect to its participation in any portion of the Commitments and the Loans as if it was a Lender.

10.7 Intentionally Omitted.

126

10.8 Independence of Covenants. All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default if such action is taken or condition exists.

10.9 Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. All representations, warranties and agreements made herein shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and the making of any Credit Extension. Notwithstanding anything herein or implied by law to the contrary, the agreements of each Credit Party set forth in Sections 2.18(c), 2.19, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4, all indemnification obligations of Company and its Subsidiaries under this Agreement and any other Credit Document that are not included in the foregoing provisions, and the agreements of Lenders set forth in Sections 2.17, 9.3(b) and 9.6 shall survive the payment of the Loans, the cancellation or expiration of the Synthetic Letters of Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder, and the termination hereof. The indemnities and payment obligations in Section 2.20 shall survive irrevocable payment in full of the Loans and termination of the Commitments.

10.10 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege. The rights, powers and remedies given to each Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby are cumulative and shall be in addition to and independent of all rights, powers and remedies existing by virtue of any statute or rule of law or in any of the other Credit Documents or any of the Hedge Agreements. Any forbearance or failure to exercise, and any delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof, nor shall it preclude the further exercise of any such right, power or remedy.

10.11 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Neither any Agent nor any Lender (which term shall include Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 10.11) shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent on behalf of Lenders), or any Agent or Lenders enforce any security interests or exercise their rights 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 bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common 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.

127

10.12 Severability. In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or any other Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

10.13 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights. The obligations of Lenders (which term shall include Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 10.13) hereunder are several and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained herein or in any other Credit Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an association, a Joint Venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out hereof and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

10.14 Headings. Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

10.15 APPLICABLE LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF LAWS OTHER THAN THOSE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

10.16 CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT THE BANKRUPTCY COURT SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN THE CREDIT PARTIES, AGENTS AND LENDERS PERTAINING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS; PROVIDED, THAT AGENTS, LENDERS AND THE CREDIT PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS FROM THE BANKRUPTCY COURT MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT OTHER THAN THE BANKRUPTCY COURT; PROVIDED FURTHER, THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE ANY AGENT FROM BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN FAVOR OF ANY AGENT. EACH CREDIT PARTY EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT SUCH CREDIT PARTY MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE

128

GRANTING OF SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH COURT.

10.17 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS LOAN TRANSACTION OR THE LENDER/COMPANY RELATIONSHIP THAT IS BEING ESTABLISHED. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS SECTION 10.17 AND EXECUTED BY EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS HERETO OR ANY OF THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE LOANS MADE HEREUNDER. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

10.18 Confidentiality. Each Agent and each Lender (which term shall include Issuing Bank for purposes of this Section 10.18) shall hold all non-public information regarding Company and its Subsidiaries and their businesses identified as such by Company and obtained by such Lender pursuant to the requirements hereof in accordance with such Lender’s customary procedures for handling confidential information of such nature, it being understood and agreed by Company that, in any event, each Agent and each Lender may make (i) disclosures of such information to Affiliates of such Lender or Agent and to their respective agents and advisors (and to other Persons authorized by a Lender or Agent to organize, present or disseminate such information in connection with disclosures otherwise made in accordance with this Section 10.18), (ii) disclosures of such information reasonably required by any bona fide or potential assignee, transferee or participant in connection with the contemplated assignment, transfer or participation of any Loans or any participations therein or by any direct or indirect contractual counterparties (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to Company and its obligations (provided, such assignees, transferees, participants, counterparties and advisors are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of this Section 10.18 or other provisions at least as restrictive as this Section 10.18), (iii) disclosure to

129

any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake in writing to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Credit Parties received by it from any of the Agents or any Lender, and (iv) disclosures required or requested by any governmental agency or representative thereof or by the NAIC or pursuant to legal or judicial process; provided, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, each Lender and each Agent shall make reasonable efforts to notify Company of any request by any governmental agency or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any examination of the financial condition or other routine examination of such Lender by such governmental agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of such information.

10.19 Usury Savings Clause. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, in respect of any Credit Party the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the Obligations, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, Company shall pay to Administrative Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders, each Issuing Bank and Company to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender or Issuing Bank contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to Company.

10.20 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this agreement by facsimile or in an email containing a “pdf” shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

10.21 Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by each of the parties hereto and receipt by Company and Administrative Agent of written or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of delivery thereof.

10.22 Patriot Act. Each Lender, Issuing Bank and Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies Company that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it may be required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Company, which

130

information includes the name and address of Company and other information that will allow such Lender or Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify Company in accordance with the Patriot Act.

10.23 Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment Agreement 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 law, 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.

10.24 Parties Including Trustees; Bankruptcy Court Proceedings. This Agreement, the other Credit Documents, and all Liens created hereby or pursuant hereto or to any other Credit Document shall be binding upon Company and each Guarantor, the estate of Company and each Guarantor, and any trustee or successor in interest of Company or any Guarantor in any Chapter 11 Case or any subsequent case commenced under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other bankruptcy or insolvency laws, and shall not be subject to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the successors of the Agents and Lenders and their respective assigns, transferees and endorsees. The Liens created by this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be and remain valid and perfected in the event of the substantive consolidation or conversion of any Chapter 11 Case or any other bankruptcy case of Company or any Guarantor to a case under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code, or in the event of dismissal of any Chapter 11 Case or the release of any Collateral from the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court for any reason, without the necessity that Lenders file financing statements or otherwise perfect its security interests or Liens under applicable law.

10.25 Collateral Deliveries. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each of the Credit Parties and the Collateral Agent agrees that any requirement hereunder that any Credit Party deliver any Collateral that constitutes Current Asset Collateral to the Collateral Agent, or that requires any Credit Party to vest the Collateral Agent with possession or “control” (as defined in the UCC) of any Collateral that constitutes Current Asset Collateral, in each case, shall be deemed satisfied to the extent that, prior to the Discharge of Revolving Credit Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), such Collateral is delivered to the Revolving Collateral Agent, or the Revolving Collateral Agent shall have been vested with such possession or (unless, pursuant to the UCC, “control” may be given concurrently to the Collateral Agent and the Revolving Collateral Agent or as otherwise may be agreed to by the Collateral Agent) control, in each case, subject to the provisions of Section 5.4 of the Intercreditor Agreement.

10.26 Judgment Currency.

(a) If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against any Credit Party in any court in any jurisdiction, it becomes necessary to convert into any other currency (such other currency being hereinafter in this Section 10.26 referred to as the

131

“Judgment Currency”) an amount due under any Credit Document in any currency (the “Obligation Currency”) other than the Judgment Currency, the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any jurisdiction that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date, or the date on which the judgment is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction (the applicable date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section 10.26 being hereinafter in this Section 10.26 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).

(b) If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section 10.26(a), there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual receipt for value of the amount due, the applicable Credit Party or Parties shall pay such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount actually received in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Obligation Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of the Judgment Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date. Any amount due from any Credit Party under this Section 10.26(b) shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of any of the Credit Documents.

(c) The term “rate of exchange” in this Section 10.26 means the rate of exchange at which Administrative Agent, on the relevant date at or about 12:00 noon (New York time), would be prepared to sell, in accordance with Administrative Agent’s normal course foreign currency exchange practices, the Obligation Currency against the Judgment Currency.
