ARTICLE II

AMOUNTS AND TERMS OF THE ADVANCES

AND THE LETTERS OF CREDIT

Section 2.01 The Advances. (a) The Revolving Credit Advances. Each Revolving Credit Lender severally agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make advances (each, a “Revolving Credit Advance”) to the Borrowers from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Termination Date in an amount for each such Advance not to exceed the lesser of (A) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment at such time and (B) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Availability at such time; provided that the aggregate amount of Advances that may be made at any time shall not exceed the Availability at such time.

(b) Borrowings. Each Borrowing shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (other than (x) a Borrowing the proceeds of which shall be used solely to repay or prepay in full outstanding Letter of Credit Advances and (y) a Borrowing in an amount equal to the aggregate unused principal amount of the Commitments under any Facility) and shall consist of Advances made simultaneously by the Lenders under the applicable Facility ratably according to the Lenders’ Commitments under such Facility. Within the limits of each Lender’s Unused Revolving Credit Commitment in effect from time to time, the Borrowers may borrow under Section 2.01(a), prepay pursuant to Section 2.07, and reborrow under Section 2.01(a).

(c) Protective Advances. The Administrative Agent shall be authorized, in its discretion, at any time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and without regard to whether any conditions in Article III are satisfied, to make Base Rate Advances (“Protective Advances”) (a) of up to an aggregate amount of $20,000,000 outstanding at any time (provided that the sum of all Revolving Credit Advances, Swing Line Advances, L/C Obligations and Protective Advances do not exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments), if the Administrative Agent deems such Protective Advances necessary or desirable to preserve or protect Collateral, or to enhance the collectibility or repayment of Obligations under the Loan Documents; or (b) to pay any other amounts chargeable to any Loan Party under any Loan Documents, including costs, fees and expenses to the extent due and payable. Each Lender shall participate in each Protective Advance in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share thereof. The Required Lenders may at any time revoke the Administrative Agent’s authority to make further Protective Advances by written notice to the Administrative Agent. Absent such revocation, the Administrative Agent’s determination that funding of a Protective Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive, provided, that the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Protective Advances shall not, at any one time, exceed the lesser of $20,000,000 and 7.5% of the Revolving Credit Facility at such time.

Section 2.02 Making the Advances. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.02(b), or 2.03, each Borrowing (other than a Swing Line Borrowing) shall be made on notice, given not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, or the first Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Advances, by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by telex or telecopier. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed promptly in writing, or telex or telecopier, in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1 hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) the Facility under which such Borrowing is to be made, (iii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iv) aggregate amount of such Borrowing and (v) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurodollar Rate Advances, initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each Lender shall, before 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing in accordance with the respective Commitments of such Lender and the other Lenders. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrowers by crediting the Borrower’s Account or such other account as the Borrowers shall request; provided, however, that, in the case of Revolving Credit Advances, the Administrative Agent shall first apply such funds to prepay ratably the aggregate principal amount of any Letter of Credit Advances outstanding on the date of such Borrowing, plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon to and as of such date.

(b) Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrowers may not select Eurodollar Rate Advances for the initial Borrowing hereunder or for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than $1,000,000 or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Rate Advances shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.10 or 2.11, and (ii) the Revolving Credit Advances may not be outstanding as part of more than 15 separate Borrowings.

(c) Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Advance to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Advance, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from any Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrowers on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the Borrowers severally agree to repay or pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount and to pay interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrowers until the date such amount is repaid or paid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrowers, the interest rate applicable at such time under Section 2.08 to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement.

(e) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance or make available on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by it.

(f) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Advance to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.02, and such funds are not made available to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Borrowing are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

(i) The Lenders (including each Lender that issued any Existing Letter of Credit) and the Borrowers agree that effective as of the Effective Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued and maintained under, and to be governed by the terms and conditions of, this Agreement as Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) each Issuing Bank agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit for the account of any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries, and to amend Letters of Credit previously issued by it, in accordance with subsection (b) below, and (2) to honor drafts under the Letters of Credit; and (B) the Revolving Credit Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit issued for the account of any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that the Issuing Banks shall not be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit, and no Revolving Credit Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of Credit, if as of the date of such issuance, (x) the Available Amount for all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank would exceed the lesser of the Letter of Credit Sublimit at such time and such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Commitment at such time, (y) the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit would exceed the aggregate Unused Revolving Credit Commitments or (z) the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit would exceed the Availability at such time.

(ii) No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit, and no Revolving Credit Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of Credit, if: (A) any order, judgment or decree of any governmental authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any governmental authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which such Issuing Bank in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ materially adverse to it; (B) the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur more than twelve months after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Revolving Credit Lenders have approved such expiry date; (C) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank; or (D) such Letter of Credit is in an initial amount less than $100,000 (unless such Issuing Bank agrees otherwise), or is to be denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars.

(iii) No Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) such Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

(iv) [Reserved]

(v) In addition to the other conditions precedent herein set forth, if any Lender becomes, and during the period it remains a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit or to amend any outstanding Letter of Credit to increase the face amount thereof, alter the drawing terms thereunder or extend the expiry date thereof, unless such Issuing Bank is satisfied that any exposure that would result therefrom is eliminated or fully covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders or by Cash Collateralization or a combination thereof reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Bank.

(b) Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit.

(i) Each Letter of Credit (other than with respect to deemed issuance of Existing Letters of Credit) shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the Borrowers delivered to the applicable Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as such Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in its sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; and (G) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may reasonably require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as such Issuing Bank may reasonably require.

(ii) Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application for a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from the Borrowers and, if not, such Issuing Bank will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Upon receipt by such Issuing Bank of confirmation from the Administrative Agent that the requested issuance or amendment is permitted in accordance with the terms hereof, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, such Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrowers or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from such Issuing Bank a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility times the amount of such Letter of Credit.

(iii) Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the applicable Issuing Bank will also deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent thereof. Not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the Business Day following the date of any payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit, so long as the Borrowers have received notice of such drawing by 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such following Business Day (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the Borrowers shall reimburse such Issuing Bank through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing (together with interest thereon at the rate set forth in Section 2.08 for Revolving Credit Advances bearing interest at the Base Rate). If the Borrowers fail to so reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02 for the principal amount of Borrowings, but subject to the amount of the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 (other than the delivery of a Notice of Borrowing). Any notice given by an Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) Each Revolving Credit Lender (including a Revolving Credit Lender acting as Issuing Bank) shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make funds available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank at the Administrative Agent’s Office in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon, subject to the provisions of Section 2.03(c)(iii), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Letter of Credit Advance to the Borrowers in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable Issuing Bank.

(iii) With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by a Borrowing because the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 cannot be satisfied or for any other reason, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have incurred from the applicable Issuing Bank a Letter of Credit Advance in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which Letter of Credit Advance shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate described in Section 2.08(b) for Revolving Credit Advances bearing interest based upon the Base Rate. In such event, each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Advance and shall constitute a Letter of Credit Advance from such Revolving Credit Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03.

(iv) Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Revolving Credit Advance or Letter of Credit Advance pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of such Issuing Bank.

(v) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Letter of Credit Advances to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender may have against such Issuing Bank, the Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. No such making of a Letter of Credit Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for the amount of any payment made by such Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.

(vi) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), such Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Credit Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Bank at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. A certificate of the applicable Issuing Bank submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after any Issuing Bank has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Revolving Credit Lender’s Letter of Credit Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrowers or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s Letter of Credit Advance was outstanding) in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any circumstances (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Issuing Bank in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Revolving Credit Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrowers to reimburse any Issuing Bank for each drawing under each Letter of Credit and to repay each Letter of Credit Advance shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(ii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right that any Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), such Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iii) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such 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; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

(iv) any payment by the Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by such Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law; or

(v) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrowers.

The Borrowers shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrowers’ instructions or other irregularity, the Borrowers will promptly notify the applicable Issuing Bank. The Borrowers shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the applicable Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.

(f) Role of Issuing Bank. Each Revolving Credit Lender and the Borrowers agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, no Issuing Bank shall have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Issuing Banks, any of their Related Parties nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any Issuing Bank shall be liable to any Revolving Credit Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Revolving Credit Lenders or the Required Lenders, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Application therefor. The Borrowers hereby assume all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrowers from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Issuing Banks, any of their Related Parties, nor any of the respective correspondents, participants or assignees of any Issuing Bank, shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.03(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrowers may have a claim against an Issuing Bank, any of its Related Parties, any of their respective correspondents, participants or assignees of such Issuing Bank or of their Related Parties, and they may be liable to the Borrowers, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrowers which the Borrowers prove were caused by such Issuing Bank’s, any such Related Party’s, or any of such respective correspondents, participants or assignees of such Issuing Bank or of any such Related Party’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such Issuing Bank’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the applicable 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 such Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason.

(g) Cash Collateral. (i) Certain Credit Support Events. Upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (A) if such Issuing Bank has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in a Letter of Credit Advance, or (B) if, as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrowers shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender) or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the respective Issuing Bank, in their reasonable discretion.

(ii) Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts at Bank of America. The Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Lender, such Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders (including the Swing Line Lender), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to clause (iii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than 103% of the applicable Fronting Exposure, the Company or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

(iii) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.03(g) or Sections 2.07, 2.16, 5.01(j) or 6.02 in respect of Letters of Credit or Swing Line Advances shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, Swing Line Advances, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

(iv) Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (A) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 10.07(a))) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default, and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

(h) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrowers when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

(i) Conflict with Letter of Credit Application. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Application, the terms hereof shall control.

Section 2.04 Swing Line Advances. (a) The Swing Line. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders set forth in this Section 2.04, may in its sole discretion make advances (each such advance, a “Swing Line Advance”) to the Borrowers from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Effective Date to the Termination Date in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swing Line Sublimit, notwithstanding the fact that such Swing Line Advances, when aggregated with the Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Credit Advances and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swing Line Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swing Line Advance, (i) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Advances and all L/C Obligations shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Facility at such time, and (ii) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Credit Advances of any Revolving Credit Lender at such time, plus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations at such time, plus such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swing Line Advances at such time shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, and provided further that the Borrowers shall not use the proceeds of any Swing Line Advance to refinance any outstanding Swing Line Advance. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrowers may borrow under this Section 2.04, prepay under Section 2.06, and reborrow under this Section 2.04. Each Swing Line Advance shall be a Base Rate Advance. Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Advance, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Advance in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swing Line Advance.

(b) Borrowing Procedures. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made upon the Borrowers’ irrevocable notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent, which may be given by telephone. Each such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Each such telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent of a written Swing Line Advance Notice, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of any Borrower. Promptly after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of any telephonic Swing Line Advance Notice, the Swing Line Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swing Line Advance Notice and, if not, the Swing Line Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swing Line Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Revolving Credit Lender) prior to 2:00 p.m. on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing (A) directing the Swing Line Lender not to make such Swing Line Advance as a result of the limitations set forth in the first proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.04(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article III is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender will, not later than 3:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swing Line Advance Notice, make the amount of its Swing Line Advance available to such Borrower.

(c) Refinancing of Swing Line Advances. (i) The Swing Line Lender at any time in its sole discretion may request, on behalf of the Borrowers (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Revolving Credit Lender make a Base Rate Advance in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of Swing Line Advances then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Notice of Borrowing for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.02, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Advances, but subject to the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. The Swing Line Lender shall furnish the Borrowers with a copy of the applicable Notice of Borrowing promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified in such Notice of Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral available with respect to the applicable Swing Line Advance) for the account of the Swing Line Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the day specified in such Notice of Borrowing, whereupon, subject to Section 2.04(c)(ii), each Revolving Credit Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Advance to the Borrowers in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If for any reason any Swing Line Advance cannot be refinanced by such a Revolving Credit Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.04(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Advances submitted by the Swing Line Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swing Line Lender that each of the Revolving Credit Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swing Line Advance and each Revolving Credit Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(c)(i) shall be deemed payment in respect of such participation.

(iii) If any Revolving Credit Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Line Lender any amount required to be paid by such Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.04(c) by the time specified in Section 2.04(c)(i), the Swing Line Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swing Line Lender at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Swing Line Lender in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swing Line Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance included in the relevant Revolving Credit Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swing Line Advance, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swing Line Lender submitted to any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(iv) Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swing Line Advances pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Credit Advances pursuant to this Section 2.04(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrowers to repay Swing Line Advances, together with interest as provided herein.

(d) Repayment of Participations. (i) At any time after any Revolving Credit Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swing Line Advance, if the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of such Swing Line Advance, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof in the same funds as those received by the Swing Line Lender.

(ii) If any payment received by the Swing Line Lender in respect of principal or interest on any Swing Line Advance is required to be returned by the Swing Line Lender under any circumstances (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swing Line Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Swing Line Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate. The Administrative Agent will make such demand upon the request of the Swing Line Lender. The obligations of the Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations under the Loan Documents and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Interest for Account of Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender shall be responsible for invoicing the Borrowers for interest on the Swing Line Advances. Until each Revolving Credit Lender funds its Base Rate Advance or risk participation pursuant to this Section 2.04 to refinance such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Swing Line Advance, interest in respect of such Pro Rata Share shall be solely for the account of the Swing Line Lender.

(f) Payments Directly to Swing Line Lender. The Borrowers shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Advances directly to the Swing Line Lender to such account of the Swing Line Lender as it shall notify the Borrowers from time to time.

Section 2.05 Repayment of Advances. (a) [Intentionally Omitted].

(b) Revolving Credit Advances. The Borrowers shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Revolving Credit Lenders on the Termination Date the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Advances then outstanding.

(c) Letter of Credit Advances. The Borrowers shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Banks and each Revolving Credit Lender that has made a Letter of Credit Advance the outstanding principal amount of each Letter of Credit Advance made by each of them on the earlier of (i) the date of demand therefor and (ii) the Termination Date.

(d) Swing Line Advances. The Borrower shall repay each Swing Line Advance on the earlier of (i) the date five Business Days after such Advance is made and (ii) the Termination Date.

The Borrowers may, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused portions of the Revolving Credit Facility, the Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit (which shall be applied to the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments (it being understood that such “unused” portion of any such Commitments shall include any portion that becomes unused as a result of any repayment occurring concurrently with such Commitment reduction or termination), as applicable); provided, however, that each partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof.

(b) Mandatory. The Letter of Credit Sublimit or the Swing Line Sublimit shall be automatically and permanently reduced from time to time on the date of each reduction in the Revolving Credit Facility by the amount, if any, by which the amount of the Letter of Credit Sublimit or Swing Line Sublimit, as the case may be, exceeds the Revolving Credit Facility after giving effect to such reduction of the Revolving Credit Facility.

(c) Application of Commitment Reductions. Upon each reduction of the Revolving Credit Facility pursuant to this Section 2.06, the Revolving Credit Commitment of each of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be reduced by such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount by which the Revolving Credit Facility is reduced in accordance with the Lenders’ respective Revolving Credit Commitments.

(i) The Borrowers may, upon at least three Business Days’ notice in the case of Eurodollar Rate Advances and one Business Day’s notice in the case of Base Rate Advances, in each case to the Administrative Agent received not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrowers shall, prepay the outstanding aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Advances and Letter of Credit Advances, in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the aggregate principal amount prepaid and any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 10.04(d); provided, however, that each partial prepayment shall be in the case of Revolving Credit Advances in an aggregate principal amount of $2,500,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of any Advance. Any prepayment of Advances pursuant to this Section 2.07(a) shall be applied to any one or more of the Revolving Credit Facility or the Letter of Credit Advances as directed by the Borrowers.

(ii) The Borrowers may, upon notice to the Swing Line Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at any time or from time to time, voluntarily prepay Swing Line Advances in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (A) such notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date of the prepayment, and (B) any such prepayment shall be in a minimum principal amount of $100,000. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment.

(a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender Party of agreeing to make or of making, funding or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Advances or of agreeing to issue or of issuing or maintaining or participating in Letters of Credit or of agreeing to make or of making or maintaining Letter of Credit Advances (excluding, for purposes of this Section 2.11, any such increased costs resulting from (x) Taxes or Other Taxes (as to which Section 2.13 shall govern) and (y) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income or overall gross income by the United States or by the foreign jurisdiction or state under the laws of which such Lender Party is organized or has its Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof), then the Borrowers shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender Party (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrowers by such Lender Party, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(b) If any Lender Party determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender Party or any corporation controlling such Lender Party and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lender Party’s commitment to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder and other commitments of such type or the issuance or maintenance of or participation in the Letters of Credit (or similar contingent obligations), then, upon demand by such Lender Party or such corporation (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party, from time to time as specified by such Lender Party, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender Party in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender Party reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lender Party’s commitment to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder or to the issuance or maintenance of or participation in any Letters of Credit. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrowers by such Lender Party shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) If, with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Advances, the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Advances for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrowers and the Lenders, whereupon (i) each such Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers that such Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, (i) each Eurodollar Rate Advance will automatically, upon such demand, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers that such Lender has determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

(e) For purposes of this Section 2.11, the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act and any and all rules, regulations, orders, requests, guidelines and directives adopted, promulgated or implemented in connection therewith are deemed to have been introduced and adopted after the date of this Agreement.

Section 2.12 Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment hereunder and under the Notes, without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or set-off (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.16), not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York, New York time) on the day when due in U.S. dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office in same day funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause like funds to be distributed (i) if such payment by the Borrowers is in respect of principal, interest, commitment fees or any other Obligation then payable hereunder and under the Notes to more than one Lender Party, to such Lender Parties for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices ratably in accordance with the amounts of such respective Obligations then payable to such Lender Parties (except as set forth in the second sentence of Section 2.05(b)) and (ii) if such payment by the Borrowers is in respect of any Obligation then payable hereunder to one Lender Party, to such Lender Party for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 10.07(d), from and after the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender Party assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

(b) If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations under the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the Advances to which, or the manner in which, such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each Lender Party ratably in accordance with such Lender Party’s proportionate share of the principal amount of all outstanding Advances and the Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Advances or other Obligations under the Loan Documents owed to such Lender Party, and for application to such principal installments, as the Administrative Agent shall direct.

(c) The Borrowers hereby authorize each Lender Party, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender Party is not made when due hereunder or, in the case of a Lender, under the Note held by such Lender, to charge from time to time against any or all of the Borrowers’ accounts with such Lender Party any amount so due (subject to the limitations on the exercise of remedies upon an Event of Default set forth in Article VI hereof). Each of the Lender Parties hereby agrees to notify the Borrowers promptly after any such setoff and application shall be made by such Lender Party; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such charge.

(d) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of fees and Letter of Credit commissions shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate, fee or commission hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(e) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or commitment fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender Party hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Lender Party on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender Party. If and to the extent the Borrowers shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Lender Party shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender Party in immediately available funds together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender Party until the date such Lender Party repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

Section 2.13 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by any Loan Party to or for the account of any Lender Party or any Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.12 or the applicable provisions of such other Loan Document, if any, 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, in the case of each Lender Party and each Agent, taxes that are imposed on its overall net income by the United States and taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the state or foreign jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender Party or such Agent, as the case may be, is organized or any political subdivision thereof and any United States federal withholding tax that would not have been imposed but for a failure by such Lender Party or such Agent (or any financial institution through which any payment is made to such Lender Party or such Agent) to comply with the applicable requirements of Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code and, in the case of each Lender Party, taxes that are imposed on its overall net income (and franchise taxes imposed in lieu thereof) by the state or foreign jurisdiction of such Lender Party’s Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities in respect of payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If any Loan Party shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Lender Party or any Agent, (i) the sum payable by such Loan Party shall be increased as may be necessary so that after such Loan Party and the Administrative Agent have made all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.13) such Lender Party or such Agent, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make all such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition, the Borrowers shall pay any present or future stamp, documentary, excise, property, intangible, mortgage recording or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made by any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Documents or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performance under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) The Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender Party and each Agent for and hold them harmless against the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes, including Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.13, imposed on or paid by such Lender Party or such Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted. A certificate as to the amount of any such taxes or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender Party or such Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor.

(d) Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the appropriate Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 10.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment, to the extent such a receipt is issued therefor, or other written proof of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In the case of any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by or on behalf of a Loan Party through an account or branch outside the United States or by or on behalf of a Loan Party by a payor that is not a United States person, if such Loan Party determines that no Taxes are payable in respect thereof, such Loan Party shall furnish, or shall cause such payor to furnish, to the Administrative Agent, at such address, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Administrative Agent stating that such payment is exempt from Taxes. For purposes of subsections (d) and (e) of this Section 2.13, the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Internal Revenue Code.

(e) Each Lender Party organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States shall, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement in the case of each Initial Lender Party and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender Party in the case of each other Lender Party, and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers (but only so long thereafter as such Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Administrative Agent and Borrowers with whichever of the following is applicable: (i) two executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (ii) two executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, (iii) two executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY and all required supporting documentation, (iv) in the case of a Lender Party claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Lender Party is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Loan Party within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code and (y) two executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or (v) two executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable laws as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States federal withholding tax together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable laws to permit the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. If the forms provided by a Lender Party at the time such Lender Party first becomes a party to this Agreement indicate a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from Taxes unless and until such Lender Party provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such forms; provided, however, that if, at the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which a Lender Party becomes a party to this Agreement, the Lender Party assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) of this Section 2.13 in respect of United States withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Taxes) United States withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the Lender Party assignee on such date. Each Lender Party that is a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent two executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or such other documentation or information prescribed by applicable Laws or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent if necessary to enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, to determine whether or not such Lender Party is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. If any form or document referred to in this subsection (e) requires the disclosure of information, other than information necessary to compute the tax payable and information required on the date hereof by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, or the related certificate described above, that the applicable Lender Party reasonably considers to be confidential, such Lender Party shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and shall not be obligated to include in such form or document such confidential information.

(f) For any period with respect to which a Lender Party has failed to provide the Borrowers with the appropriate form, certificate or other document described in subsection (e) above (other than if such failure is due to a change in law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided or if such form, certificate or other document otherwise is not required under subsection (e) above), such Lender Party shall not be entitled to indemnification under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 2.13 with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided that should a Lender Party become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, the Loan Parties shall take such steps as such Lender Party shall reasonably request to assist such Lender Party to recover such taxes.

(g) Unless required by applicable laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender Party, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender Party, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender Party. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which a Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Loan Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Loan Parties, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party, agree to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Person.

(h) Any Lender Party claiming any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and requirements of law) to change the jurisdiction of its lending office if such a change (i) is necessary to reduce any such additional amounts and (ii) would not, in the sole determination of such Lender Party, be disadvantageous to such Lender Party.

Section 2.14 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender Party shall obtain at any time any payment, whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise (other than pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.13, 10.04 or 10.07), (a) on account of Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party hereunder and under the Notes at such time in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations due and payable to such Lender Party at such time (other than pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.13, 10.04 or 10.07) to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations due and payable to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time obtained by all the Lender Parties at such time or (b) on account of Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to such Lender Party hereunder and under the Notes at such time (other than pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.13, 10.04 or 10.07) in excess of its ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Obligations owing to such Lender Party at such time (other than pursuant to Section 2.11, 2.13, 10.04 or 10.07) to (ii) the aggregate amount of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time) of payments on account of the Obligations owing (but not due and payable) to all Lender Parties hereunder and under the Notes at such time obtained by all of the Lender Parties at such time, such Lender Party shall forthwith purchase from the other Lender Parties such participations in the Obligations under the Loan Documents due and payable or owing to them, as the case may be, as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender Party to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided, however, that, if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender Party, such purchase from each other Lender Party shall be rescinded and such other Lender Party shall repay to the purchasing Lender Party the purchase price to the extent of such Lender Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the purchase price paid to such Lender Party to (ii) the aggregate purchase price paid to all Lender Parties) of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such other Lender Party’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender Party in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrowers agree that any Lender Party so purchasing a participation from another Lender Party pursuant to this Section 2.14 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender Party were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.15 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Advances shall only be utilized (i) to refinance the Obligations outstanding under the Existing DIP Agreement, (ii) to pay fees, costs and expenses in connection with such refinancing and the Transactions and (iii) to provide financing for working capital, letters of credit, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes of the Borrowers and the Guarantors, including but not limited to investments in other Subsidiaries to the extent not prohibited under this Agreement or to Cash Collateralize the Fronting Exposure with respect to Defaulting Lenders.

Section 2.16 Defaulting Lenders. (a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VI or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.05), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of that Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit or Swing Line Advance; fourth, as the Borrowers may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to the funding of any Advance in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of that Defaulting Lender to fund Advances under this Agreement; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any by any Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Swing Line Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Advances were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.01 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of that Defaulting Lender. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) Certain Fees. That Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee or letter of credit fee pursuant to Sections 2.09(a) and (b), respectively, for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

(iv) Reallocation of Pro Rata Share to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swing Line Advances pursuant to Sections 2.03 and 2.04, the “Pro Rata Share” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (A) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and (B) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Advances of that Lender.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Swing Line Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to the release of any Cash Collateral held pursuant to Section 2.16(a)(ii) to pay amounts owed by such Defaulting Lender or to pay to such Defaulting Lender), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.17 Evidence of Debt. (a) The Advances made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Advances made by the Lenders to the Borrowers and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations hereunder. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Advances in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, amount and maturity of its Advances and payments with respect thereto.

(b) In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

Section 2.18 Replacement of Certain Lenders. In the event a Lender shall have (a) become a Defaulting Lender under Section 2.16, (b) requested compensation from the Borrowers under Section 2.13 with respect to Taxes or Other Taxes or with respect to increased costs or capital or under Section 2.11 or other additional costs incurred by such Lender which, in any case, are not being incurred generally by the other Lenders, (c) delivered a notice pursuant to Section 2.11(d) claiming that such Lender is unable to extend Eurodollar Rate Advances to the Borrowers for reasons not generally applicable to the other Lenders or (d) become a Non-Consenting Lender (in each case, an “Affected Lender”), then, in any case, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent may make written demand on such Affected Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent in the case of a demand by the Borrowers and a copy to the Borrowers in the case of a demand by the Administrative Agent) for the Affected Lender to assign, and such Affected Lender shall assign pursuant to one or more duly executed Assignments and Acceptances within 5 Business Days after the date of such demand, to one or more financial institutions that the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall have engaged for such purpose, all of such Affected Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, its Commitment, all Advances owing to it, all of its participation interests in existing Letters of Credit, and its obligation to participate in additional Letters of Credit hereunder), in accordance with Section 10.07. The Administrative Agent is authorized to execute one or more of such Assignments and Acceptances as attorney-in-fact for any Affected Lender failing to execute and deliver the same within 5 Business Days after the date of such demand. Further, with respect to such assignment, the Affected Lender shall have concurrently received, in cash, all amounts due and owing to the Affected Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document; provided that upon such Affected Lender’s replacement, such Affected Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11 and 10.04, as well as to any fees accrued for its account hereunder and not yet paid, and shall continue to be obligated under Section 7.09 with respect to losses, obligations, liabilities, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements for matters which occurred prior to the date the Affected Lender is replaced.

Section 2.19 Commitment Increase. (a) The Borrowers may at any time or from time to time after the Effective Date (but no more than twice in any calendar year), by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request one or more increases in the amount of the Commitments (each such increase, a “Commitment Increase”); provided that upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment (as defined below), no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and each Commitment Increase shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $25,000,000 (provided that such amount may be less than $25,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in the next sentence). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the aggregate amount of the Commitment Increases shall not exceed $125,000,000. Each notice from the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall set forth the requested amount of the relevant Commitment Increase. Commitment Increases may be provided by any existing Lender (it being understood that no existing Lender will have an obligation to provide a portion of any Commitment Increase) or by any other Eligible Assignee (provided that any required approval of such Eligible Assignee by the Administrative Agent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and the commitment of any such Eligible Assignee to the relevant Commitment Increase is at least $5,000,000). Commitments in respect of Commitment Increases shall become Commitments (or in the case of a Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Lender, an increase in such Lender’s applicable Commitment) under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to Schedule I (with a joinder agreement in the case of any Eligible Assignee providing any portion of such Commitment Increases), executed by the Administrative Agent, each Lender and Eligible Assignee that is in each case agreeing to provide any portion of the relevant Commitment Increase, and the Borrowers. Any such Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate (including any increase in the Applicable Margin and the fees set out in Sections 2.09), provided that any such increase shall apply to and be for the benefit of all the Lenders), in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.19. The effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Borrowing, issuance or renewal” or similar language in such Section 3.02 shall be deemed to refer to in such instance to the effective date of such Incremental Amendment). The Borrowers may use Commitment Increases for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.

(b) Upon each increase in the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.19, (x) each Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Commitment Increase (each a “Commitment Increase Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding participations hereunder in Letters of Credit held by each Lender (including each such Commitment Increase Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Commitments of all Lenders represented by such Lender’s Commitment and (y) if, on the date of such increase, there are any Advances outstanding, portions of such Advances shall on the date of the effectiveness of such Commitment Increase be prepaid with the proceeds of additional Advances made by the Commitment Increase Lenders (such that after giving effect to such prepayment, the percentage of the Advances held by each Lender will equal the percentage of the aggregate Commitments of all Lenders represented by such Lender’s Commitment after giving effect to such Commitment Increase), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 10.04(d). The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence. Except as permitted under Section 2.19(a) with respect to any increase in Applicable Margin and fees, the terms and conditions of such Commitment Increases (including pricing and maturity date) shall be identical to those applicable to the Commitments immediately prior to the effectiveness of such Commitment Increases, and the applicable commitments to the relevant Commitment Increase shall, upon the effectiveness of the relevant Commitment Increase, constitute Commitments hereunder. This Section 2.19 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.14 or 10.01 to the contrary.

Section 2.20 Nature and Extent of Each Borrower’s Liability. (a) Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders the prompt payment and performance of, all Obligations under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligations hereunder constitute a continuing guaranty of payment and not of collection, that such guaranty obligations shall not be discharged until the latest of (i) the payment in full in cash of all Obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) the Termination Date, and that such guaranty obligations are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (A) the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document or any Obligations thereunder; (B) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section 2.20) or any other Loan Document, or any waiver, consent or indulgence of any kind by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect thereto; (C) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve rights against, any security or guaranty for the Obligations under the Loan Documents or any action, or the absence of any action, by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in respect thereof (including the release of any security or guaranty); (D) the insolvency of any Loan Party; (E) any election by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in an Insolvency Proceeding for the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (F) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by any other Borrower, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; (G) the disallowance of any claims of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against any Loan Party for the repayment of any Obligations under the Loan Documents under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; or (H) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, except the payment in full in cash of the Obligations under the Loan Documents.

(b) Waivers. (i) Each Borrower expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to marshal assets or to proceed against any Loan Party, other Person or security for the payment or performance of any Obligations under the Loan Documents before, or as a condition to, proceeding against such Borrower. Each Borrower in its capacity as a guarantor waives all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor other than the payment in full in cash of all Obligations under the Loan Documents. It is agreed among each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders that the provisions of this Section 2.20 are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for such provisions, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders would decline to make Revolving Credit Advances and issue Letters of Credit. Each Borrower acknowledges that its guaranty pursuant to this Section 2.20 is necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.

(ii) At any time an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies as they deem appropriate, including realization upon Collateral by judicial foreclosure or non-judicial sale or enforcement, without affecting any rights and remedies under this Section 2.20. If, in taking any action in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies, the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall forfeit any other rights or remedies, including the right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or other Person, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or otherwise, each Borrower consents to such action and waives any claim based upon it, even if the action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that any Borrower might otherwise have had. Any election of remedies that results in denial or impairment of the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to seek a deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair any other Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any security for the Obligations under the Loan Documents, even though that election of remedies destroys such Borrower’s rights of subrogation against any other Person. The Administrative Agent may bid all or a portion of the Obligations under the Loan Documents at any foreclosure or trustee’s sale or at any private sale, and the amount of such bid need not be paid by the Administrative Agent but shall be credited against the Obligations under the Loan Documents. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether the Administrative Agent or any other Person is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral acquired pursuant to such sale, and, after application of the proceeds of such sale and/or, if applicable, the amount of such credit bid to payment of the Obligations under the Loan Documents, the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations under the Loan Documents shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations under the Loan Documents guaranteed under this Section 2.20, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which the Administrative Agent or any Lender might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

(c) Extent of Liability; Contribution. (i) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Borrower’s liability under this Section 2.20 shall be limited to the greater of (i) all amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable, as described below, and (ii) such Borrower’s Allocable Amount.

(ii) If any Borrower makes a payment under this Section 2.20 of any Obligations under the Loan Documents (other than amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount that such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations under the Loan Documents satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such Borrower’s Allocable Amount bore to the total Allocable Amounts of all Borrowers, then such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment. The “Allocable Amount” for any Borrower shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Section 2.20 without rendering such payment voidable under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state fraudulent transfer or conveyance act, or similar statute or common law.

(iii) Nothing contained in this Section 2.20 shall limit the liability of any Borrower to pay Revolving Credit Advances made directly or indirectly to that Borrower (including Revolving Credit Advances advanced to any other Borrower and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower), L/C Obligations relating to Letters of Credit issued to support such Borrower’s business, and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other related Obligations under the Loan Documents, with respect thereto, for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder.

The Confirmation Order shall approve the transactions contemplated by Revolving Credit Facility, shall be in full force and effect and shall not have been stayed, reversed or vacated, or otherwise amended or modified in any manner that is materially adverse to the rights or interests of the Lenders (unless otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Initial Lenders).

Further, either (i) the settlement of certain diacetyl claims as set forth in the settlement agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”), a copy of which is annexed to the motion filed with the Bankruptcy Court on July 29, 2010 (the “Settlement Motion”), shall have been approved, without material modification (it being understood that modifications contemplated under and in accordance with Section 3.3 of the Settlement Agreement are not material), by an order of the Bankruptcy Court (the “Settlement Order”) and both (x) the Settlement Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, without a right of the Company to terminate the Settlement Agreement in accordance with Section 4.2 thereof and (y) the Settlement Order shall not be reversed, vacated or stayed or (ii) claims that were the subject of the Settlement Agreement in an amount and number such that (if such amount and number of claimants had accepted the Settlement Agreement) the Company would not have had the right to terminate the Settlement Agreement in accordance with Section 4.2 thereof, shall have been (A) estimated, for purposes of creating a cash reserve that will provide the sole source of recovery for such estimated claims, and/or (B) settled pursuant to settlement agreements in full force and effect, with such settlements and estimates described in clauses (A) and (B) being in an aggregate cash amount substantially consistent with (or less than) the aggregate settlement amount set forth in the Settlement Agreement and in each case being approved pursuant to one or more orders of the Bankruptcy Court (collectively, the “Estimation/Settlement Orders”), and such Estimation/Settlement Orders shall not be reversed, vacated or stayed.

(c) Other Indebtedness. The Lenders shall have received reasonably satisfactory evidence that the obligations of the Company and each of its other debtor Subsidiaries with respect to the Existing DIP Agreement have been satisfied and discharged and any collateral in respect thereof released, except that letters of credit issued under the Existing DIP Agreement that are supported by cash or letters of credit issued under the Facilities may remain outstanding. Concurrently with the consummation of the Plan, all pre-existing Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries (other than Debt permitted to remain outstanding under the Plan and the Loan Documents) shall have been repaid, repurchased, discharged or otherwise satisfied in full, all commitments relating thereto shall have been terminated, and all Liens or security interests related thereto shall have been terminated or released. In addition, the Agents shall have received evidence that the Company has received the net cash proceeds from the issuance of at least $750 million in principal amount of Term Loans and/or the Senior Notes. (A) Neither the Term Loans nor the Senior Notes shall have been amended or modified after the date of funding thereof into escrow if such amendment or modification shall cause the Term Loans or the Senior Notes to (i) have a stated maturity date earlier or a weighted average life to maturity shorter than six months after the Termination Date or (ii) have any direct restriction on any specific payment of the Revolving Credit Facility or impose any other direct restriction on the Company or any of its Subsidiaries that by its express terms conflicts with any express term or provision set forth in the Loan Documents and (B) the priority of any lien on the Revolving Facility Collateral securing the Term Loans or Senior Notes shall be subject to the Intercreditor Agreement.

The terms of each of the Senior Notes and the Term Loans shall not have been amended or modified after the date of funding thereof into escrow if such amendment or modification shall cause the Term Loans or the Senior Notes to contain any financial covenant with such maximum or minimum level for any period that (i) is materially adverse to the interests of the Lenders or (ii) does not take into account drawings under the Revolving Credit Facility and the forecasts delivered by the Company pursuant to Section 3.01 (a)(xii)(C) above.

(d) Payment of Fees. All costs, fees and expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses, title premiums, survey charges and recording taxes and fees) and other compensation contemplated by the Commitment Letter and the Fee Letters and payable to the Agents and/or the Lenders shall have been paid to the extent due.

(e) Minimum Availability. Availability after giving effect to all Borrowings and issuances of Letters of Credit on the Effective Date, and to all other Transactions contemplated in Section 3.01(b) above to occur on the Effective Date, shall be no less than $150 million.

(f) Others.

(i) Since December 31, 2009, there shall not have occurred a Material Adverse Change, or any event or occurrence which would reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. There shall exist no action, suit, investigation, litigation or proceeding pending in any court or before any arbitrator or governmental instrumentality that (i) could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change or (ii) restrains, prevents or imposes or can reasonably be expected to impose conditions materially adverse to the Lenders upon the Revolving Credit Facility or any of the other material transactions contemplated hereby.

(iv) The Administrative Agent shall have received, to the extent requested no later than 3 Business Days prior to the Effective Date, all documentation and other information required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.

(v) Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have received endorsements naming the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, as an additional insured and loss payee under all insurance policies to be maintained with respect to the properties of the Borrowers, the Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries forming part of the Collateral.

(vi) The Administrative Agent shall have received, with respect to each Material Real Property, each of the following, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being agreed that for purposes of this Section 3.01(f)(vi), the form and substance of any document or instrument received substantially in the form delivered pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement shall be deemed reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent):

(A) deeds of trust, trust deeds, deeds to secure debt, mortgages, leasehold mortgages and leasehold deeds of trust, in form and substance substantially consistent with the corresponding documents delivered pursuant to the Existing DIP Agreement (together with each other mortgage delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(l), in each case as amended, the “Mortgages”), duly executed by the appropriate Loan Party, together with:

(B) evidence that counterparts of the Mortgages have been duly executed, acknowledged and delivered and are in form suitable for filing or recording in all filing or recording offices that the Administrative Agent may deem necessary or desirable in order to create a valid second and subsisting Lien on the property described therein in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and that all filing, documentary, stamp, intangible and recording taxes and fees have been paid;

(C) fully paid American Land Title Association Lender’s Extended Coverage title insurance policies (the “Mortgage Policies”), with endorsements and in amounts reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, issued by title insurers reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, insuring the Mortgages to be valid second and subsisting Liens on the property described therein, free and clear of all defects and encumbrances, excepting only Liens permitted under Section 5.02(a);

(D) American Land Title Association/American Congress on Surveying and Mapping form surveys, for which all necessary fees (where applicable) have been paid, and dated or rectified to the reasonable satisfaction of the Administrative Agent no more than 30 days before the Effective Date, certified (or, in the case of existing surveys, recertified) to the Administrative Agent and the issuer of the Mortgage Policies in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent by a land surveyor duly registered and licensed in the States in which the property described in such surveys is located and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent;

(E) a favorable opinion of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ LLP, counsel to the Loan Parties (and if applicable, a favorable opinion of in-house counsel or local counsel to the Loan Parties), as to corporate formalities and as to such other matters as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in customary form and in substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(H) evidence of insurance required by the terms of the Mortgages;

provided, however, that if the Company is unable to deliver one or more of the items described in Section 3.01(f)(vi) above after the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts, delivery of such undelivered items shall not be a condition precedent under this Section 3.01, and the Company hereby agrees to deliver such items to the Administrative Agent within 45 days after the Effective Date; provided further that in each case, the Administrative Agent may, in its reasonable discretion, grant extensions of such time period.

(A) the representations and warranties contained in each Loan Document, are correct in all material respects (provided that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of such date, immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such Borrowing, issuance or renewal and to the application of the proceeds therefrom, as though made on and as of such date, other than any such representations or warranties that, by their terms, refer to a specific date other than the date of such Borrowing, issuance or renewal, in which case such representations or warranties were true and correct in all material respects (provided that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language were true and correct in all respects) as of such specific date; and

(B) no event has occurred and is continuing, or would result from such Borrowing, issuance or renewal or from the application of the proceeds, if any, therefrom, that constitutes a Default; and

(ii) the Lenders shall have received the Borrowing Base Certificate most recently required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.03(o).

Section 3.03 Determinations Under Sections 3.01 and 3.03.

In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of an Advance, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Advance or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Company), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 7.05 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

Section 7.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may at any time give prior written notice of its resignation to the Lender Parties and the Company. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Company, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States; provided that such successor shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.12(e) prior to becoming the successor under this Agreement, and the Required Lenders shall not appoint a foreign agent as successor if such appointment would, upon the effectiveness of such appointment, result in a tax gross-up or indemnification payment under this Agreement. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lender Parties appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security as nominee until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender Party directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above in this Section. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by the Company to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Company and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article VII and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

104

Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Swing Line Lender and, if Bank of America shall have become an Issuing Bank, its resignation as an Issuing Bank. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Swing Line Lender and, if applicable, Issuing Bank, (ii) the retiring Swing Line Lender and, if applicable, Issuing Bank shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations as Swing Line Lender and Issuing Bank, as the case may be, hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (iii) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Section 7.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lender Parties. Each Lender Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 7.08 No Other Duties, etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the Bookrunners, Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent or the Co-Documentation Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent or as a Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder.

105

Section 7.09 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Advance or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Advances, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lender Parties and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lender Parties and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lender Parties and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lender Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04.

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

(a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Secured Obligations (other than (A) contingent indemnification obligations and (B) obligations and liabilities under Secured Cash Management Agreements, as to which arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Cash Management Bank shall have been made) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank shall have been made), (ii) that is sold or to be sold as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 10.01;

(b) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder or if such Person is merged, liquidated, dissolved or consolidated into another Guarantor or its assets are sold as permitted under the terms of the Loan Documents and, in the case of such liquidation, dissolution or sale the assets of such Person or the proceeds thereof, as applicable, are distributed to (x) the Company or (y) the Subsidiary of the Company holding all of the Equity Interests of such Person or into which such Person is dissolved or liquidated; and

In each case as specified in this Section 7.10, the Administrative Agent will, at the Company’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents or to subordinate its interest in such item, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 7.10.

In the case of an investigation, litigation or proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Borrower, any of its directors, security holders or creditors, an Indemnitee or any other Person or whether or not an Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated. Each Borrower also agrees that no Indemnitee shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to any Borrower or any of their respective Affiliates or to its or their respective security holders or creditors arising out of, related to or in connection with any aspect of the transactions contemplated hereby, except to the extent such liability is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In no event, however, shall any Indemnitee be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent such damages are determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. All amounts due under this Section 10.04(b) shall be payable within ten Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Section shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender Party, the termination of the Commitments, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations under the Loan Documents.

(c) To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason fail to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 10.04 to be paid by them to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) any Related Party thereof, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party thereof acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this subsection (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.14.

112

(d) If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Advance is made by any Borrower to or for the account of a Lender Party other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.10(b)(i) or 2.11(d), acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or if any Borrower fails to make any payment or prepayment of an Advance for which a notice of prepayment has been given or that is otherwise required to be made, whether pursuant to Section 2.05, 2.07 or 6.01 or otherwise, the Borrowers shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender Party any amounts required to compensate such Lender Party for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion or such failure to pay or prepay, as the case may be, including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender Party to fund or maintain such Advance.

Section 10.05 Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender Party and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender Party or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower or any other Loan Party against any and all of the obligations of such Borrower or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender Party, irrespective of whether or not such Lender Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Borrower or such Loan Party are owed to a branch or office of such Lender Party different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations under the Loan Documents owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender Party and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender Party or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender Party agrees to notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Section 10.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrowers, each Agent, the Initial Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender that such Initial Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, each Agent and each Lender Party and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrowers shall not have the right to assign their rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of each Lender Party.

Section 10.07 Successors and Assigns. (a) Each Lender may assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment or Commitments, the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not a varying, percentage of all rights and obligations under and in respect of any or all Facilities, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender or an Approved Fund of any Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the aggregate amount of the Commitments being assigned to any such Eligible Assignee pursuant to such assignment (determined as of the date of the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment) shall be, unless the Administrative Agent shall otherwise consent, $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, (iii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (iv) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any Note or Notes (if any) subject to such assignment and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, (v) to the extent any such assignment immediately upon becoming effective shall increase amounts payable under Section 2.11 or 2.13, the Borrowers shall not be liable for payment of such increased amounts unless such assignment is made with the Borrowers’ prior consent after the Borrowers have been informed of such increased amounts and (vi) prior to such assignment, the assignor or the Administrative Agent shall have given notice of such assignment to the Borrowers. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the applicable Pro Rata Share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Pro Rata Share of all Advances and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Advances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

113

(b) Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, hereunder and (ii) the Lender or Issuing Bank assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights (other than its rights under Sections 2.11, 2.13 and 10.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall cease to be a party hereto).

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, each Lender Party assignor thereunder and each assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties thereto and hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with any Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (ii) such assigning Lender Party makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, such assigning Lender Party or any other Lender Party and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes each Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Loan Documents as are delegated to such Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be.

114

(d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose (but only for this purpose) as the agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.02 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lender Parties and the Commitment under each Facility of, and principal amount of the Advances owing under each Facility to, each Lender Party from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Agents and the Lender Parties may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender Party hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower or any Agent or any Lender Party at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender Party and an assignee, together with any Note or Notes subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers and each other Agent. In the case of any assignment by a Lender, within five Business Days after its receipt of such notice and request by such Eligible Assignee of a new Note, the Borrowers, at their own expense, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent in exchange for the surrendered Note or Notes (if any) a new Note to the order of such Eligible Assignee in an amount equal to the Commitment assumed by it under each Facility pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if any assigning Lender that had a Note or Notes prior to such assignment has retained a Commitment hereunder under such Facility, a new Note to the order of such assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitment retained by it hereunder. Such new Note or Notes shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto.

(f) Each Issuing Bank, with the written consent of the Company, may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the undrawn portion of its Letter of Credit Commitment at any time; provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee and (ii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500.

(g) Each Lender Party may sell participations to one or more Persons (other than any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender Party’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitments) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender Party shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) such Lender Party shall remain the holder of any such Note for all purposes of this Agreement, (iv) the Borrowers, the Agents and the other Lender Parties shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender Party in connection with such Lender Party’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (v) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest (other than default interest) on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or release all or substantially all of the value of the Collateral or of the value of the Guaranties, (vi) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the benefit of Section 2.13 to the same extent as if they were a Lender Party but, with respect to any particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender Party that sold the participation to such participant and only if such participant agrees to comply with Section 2.13(e) as though it were a Lender Party and (vii) to the extent any such participation immediately upon becoming effective shall increase amounts payable under Section 2.11 or 2.13, the Borrowers shall not be liable for payment of such increased amounts unless such participation is made with the Borrowers’ prior consent after the Borrowers have been informed of such increased amounts.

115

(h) Any Lender Party may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrowers furnished to such Lender Party by or on behalf of the Borrowers; provided, however, that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Information received by it from such Lender Party in accordance with Section 10.11 hereof.

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender Party may at any time (and without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrowers) create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it and any Note or Notes held by it) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a fund that invests in bank loans may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Advances owing to it and the Note or Notes held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such fund as security for such obligations or securities, provided, however, that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

(k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender Party (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle organized and administered by such Lender Party identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Advance that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Advance, and (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Advance, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Advance pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of an Advance by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Advance were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender Party would be liable, (ii) no SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11 and 2.13 (or any other increased costs protection provision) and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including, without limitation, the approval of any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the Lender Party of record hereunder. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior Debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof; provided that each Lender Party designating any SPC hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such SPC during such period of forbearance. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, assign all or any portion of its interest in any Advance to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Advances to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC. This subsection (k) may not be amended without the prior written consent of each Granting Lender, all or any part of whose Advances are being funded by the SPC at the time of such amendment.

116

(l) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Revolving Credit Commitment and Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 10.07(a), Bank of America may, (i) if Bank of America shall have become an Issuing Bank, upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrowers and the Lenders, resign as Issuing Bank and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to the Borrower, resign as Swing Line Lender. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, the Borrowers shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrowers to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of America resigns as Issuing Bank, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Bank and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Advances or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.03(c)). If Bank of America resigns as Swing Line Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swing Line Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swing Line Advances made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Lenders to make Base Rate Advances or fund risk participations in outstanding Swing Line Advances pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Upon the appointment of a successor Issuing Bank and/or Swing Line Lender, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender, as the case may be, and (b) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession (and the Letters of Credit being issued in substitution shall not be considered outstanding for purposes of determining Availability until substituted for the relevant Letters of Credit issued by Bank of America) or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.

Section 10.08 Execution in Counterparts; Integration. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier or by electronic transmission (e.g. “.pdf” or “tiff”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 10.09 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Advance or the issuance, extension or increase in the amount of any Letter of Credit, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Advance or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

117

Section 10.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.10, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 10.11 Confidentiality and Related Matters. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lender Parties agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) on a need to know basis to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or participant in, or any prospective assignee of or participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section 2.19 or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrowers and their obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrowers or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender Party or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company; provided that in the case of disclosure under subsection (c) of this Section 10.11, such party subject to such requirement or request shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, rules and regulations, provide the applicable Loan Party with written notice as promptly as practicable and use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Loan Party in such Loan Party’s efforts, at its own expense, to obtain a protective order or other confidential treatment. For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrowers or any Subsidiary relating to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender Party on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrowers or any Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrowers or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders Parties acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable law, including United States Federal and state securities laws.

118

Section 10.12 Treatment of Information. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that (a) the Administrative Agent and/or the other Lead Arrangers will make available to the Lender Parties materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrowers hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain of the Lenders (each, a “Public Lender”) may have personnel who do not wish to receive material non-public information (within the meaning of the U.S. federal securities law) (“MNPI”) with respect to the Borrowers or their respective Affiliates, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such Persons’ securities. Each Borrower hereby agrees that it will, if so requested by the Administrative Agent, use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (w) at the request of the Administrative Agent, all such Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, and the Lender Parties to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Company or its securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 10.11); and (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information”; and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Side Information”.

Section 10.13 Patriot Act Notice. (a) Each Lender Party that is subject to the Patriot Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender Party) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender Party or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act. Each Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.

Section 10.14 Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or federal court of the United States of America sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in any such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.

119

(b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party in any New York State or federal court. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

Section 10.15 Governing Law. This Agreement and the Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Section 10.16 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

Section 10.17 No Advisory or Fiduciary Relationship. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each of the Loan Parties acknowledges and agrees that: (a)(i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the other Bookrunners are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Loan Parties, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the other Bookrunners, on the other hand, (ii) each of the Loan Parties has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (iii) each of the Loan Parties is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (b)(i) each of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the other Bookrunners is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for any Loan Party or any other Person and (ii) none of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers or the other Bookrunners has any obligation to any Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (c) the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the other Bookrunners and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates, and none of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers or the other Bookrunners has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the any Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Loan Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against each of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and the other Bookrunners with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

120

Section 10.18 Release of Guarantees and Collateral. If (i) any Guarantor or any of its successors in interest shall cease to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder or (ii) if any Guarantor is merged, liquidated, dissolved or consolidated into another Guarantor or its assets are sold as permitted under the terms of the Loan Documents and, in the case of such liquidation, dissolution or sale the assets of such Guarantor or the proceeds thereof, as applicable, are distributed in accordance with the Loan Documents or, if the Loan Documents do not provide for such distribution, to (x) the Company or (y) the Subsidiary of the Company holding all of the Equity Interests of such Person or into which such Person is dissolved or liquidated, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to the Borrowers, at the Borrowers’ expense, all documents that the Borrowers shall reasonably request to evidence the release of such obligations of such Guarantor under the Guaranty and the Liens securing such obligations.
